Jake William
My feet ferried me to my study room where on arrival, I grabbed a chair and threw it across the room. The furniture landed on the floor with a thud, splattering into tiny pieces. Anger was coursing through my being. Propelling me to yell while shoving stationery and furniture across the room. I needed to vent my anger on something. I needed to punch something and that's what I did. My fists connected with the wall, hitting it severally."Jake!" A voice which I recognized as my mother's yelled."Leave, mother, I want to be alone!" I growled while punching the wall furiously. The collision of my fists with the wall, caused my knuckles to bruise and bleed."Stop hurting yourself!" She grabbed my hand before I could throw another punch. Before I could argue, she drew my body for an embrace. "Calm down, you can't hurt yourself like this!" She caressed my back as silently twisted my fist.She broke off the hug and cupped my faBrenda GEverything happens for a reason. That's what everyone says. Time is a healer of all wounds, that's yet another quote that has grown to be people's favourite. As much as I had tried using both of those quotes to soothe my aching heart, none of them helped.My heart was crushing more and more and there was nothing that could hold it together. Not even Gena's words or the mouth-watering food that she'd laid before me. I hadn't eaten a morsel of food for twenty-six hours. My stomach couldn't stop rumbling as digestive acids corroded its walls. Ulcers would soon invade my stomach."Bree, please at least take a bite." Gena, who had been repeating the same phrase for the past ten minutes, urged. I had rejected all the meals for the past 24 hours but she hadn't stopped trying. She had even gone as far as ordering a variety of dishes and laid them on the coffee table for me to select my preferred dish."If you don't eat, I swear I will s
Brenda GAll my senses came to a sudden coma.Jake was in my apartment. How the fuck did he find me? Since when did Jake and Emilio become friends?I felt like I was trapped in a dream as questions choked my brain while staring at Jake. I was unable to believe that he was in my apartment."Bree?" Gena's voice brought me back to reality. She was giving me one of her -what are you doing- looks.I mustered all the courage that I needed and got up from the kitchen stool. I could feel Jake's gaze burning through me as my feeble legs ported me towards the trio. Emilio was whispering something to Gena while Jake was staring intensely at me. My eyes met his for a brief moment and I would have sworn, I wet my pants. Maybe from fear or the sexiness of his eyes.My heart picked up its drumming as shivers strolled all over my being. My throat dried up instantly, making me crave a lake of water to quench my thirst. Knots formed in m
Jake WilliamI was on my knee with my hand stretched out and my mother's ring sandwiched between my thumb and index. I stared into her teary eyes as I awaited her reply.My stomach was doing all kinds of somersaults as anxiety trapped my body. My heart thumped loudly, creating musical havoc that tormented my ears.Please say yes.I inwardly hoped as I watched her gestures. I couldn't help but feel guilty that perhaps, I had rushed into this. Maybe she wasn't ready to marry me yet. What was I even thinking, proposing to her?Doubt seeped into my mind as I awaited her rejection. My heart clenched in my chest as the thought of her rejecting my marriage proposal crept into my mind.Perhaps it's not the right time to propose with all that's going on with her dad and Lance. I should have waited until all this was over then asked her to marry me."Yes," her shaky voice tore through my ears. "Yes, I will marry you, Jak
Brenda GLater that evening, the four of us were seated in the parlour, discussing the plan to defeat Lance and save my dad."I think we should kidnap Lance and then torture him until he reveals Mr. Hammond's location," Gena suggested."That sounds like a nice idea." Emilio nodded. "But what if he doesn't talk? What if kidnapping him only makes things worse?" He reasoned."Emilio is right. Kidnapping Lance might end up backfiring on us." I stated."It will backfire only if we don't execute the plan well. I have the means to ensure that the plan doesn't fail. Okay, here it goes. We will kidnap Lance, take him to an abandoned site that only the four of us know about then torture him. And if he doesn't talk, we could call one of his henchmen using Lance's phone and strike a deal with him which will be Brenda's dad. What do you guys think?" Gena proposed.There was a moment of silence as we threw glances at each other.
Brenda GI slid his pants and briefs off as he had ordered. Leaving him naked. A gasp trembled through my lips as I stared at his erect cock."Lie down," Jake instructed with all domination. I obliged and lay on my back, with him looking down at my nakedness.He leaned down and fixed a pillow on my head thus allowing me to arch my back. I could feel unexplainable emotions running through me, I couldn't wait to feel him fill my starving pussy.He parted my thighs, allowing his erect cock to lie on me, teasing my damped pussy. He cornered my lips into a desperate kiss. His hand crawled on my skin finding its way to my dampness.Every part he touched left a tickling sensation and I couldn't help the moans from immense pleasure.His fingers arrived at my wet pussy and just with one touch, he cackled in between our kisses. "You are so wet for me." An erotic whisper gushed through his lips as he trailed butterfly kisses around my neck
Brenda GThis is it.A sigh emanated from my mouth as I glanced at the exit to my apartment with my suitcase in hand. My heart couldn't stop plummeting within the bony confines of my chest. Shivers swam across my skin, from both the chilly weather and nervousness. I could feel their stares scorching my back, making it harder for me to reach out for the doorknob."Bree," Gena's voice called from behind me. She didn't want me to leave, none of them did. But what choice did I have? It was the only way to ensure that we rescue my dad.I turned to her and she rushed to hug me, sinking her head on my shoulder. I could feel some tears on my bare shoulder. She was crying, again. My gaze rested on Jake and Emilio. Neither of them seemed happy about my departure. Gloominess was etched on their faces. Seeing them like that was making me feel worse than I already was. They were making it hard for me to leave."We can think of some other pla
Brenda G"My daughter, you have finally arrived!" My mother made rapid steps towards me as her hair, which was tied in a ponytail, swayed side to side. Her knee-length melanoid satin dress hugged her fleshy frame. Expensive looking earrings dangled from her attached earlobes and a smile was engraved on her scarlet lips as she neared me."I was waiting for you all morning." She drew my body into a forced hug. Her strong perfume attacked my nostrils, which in turn triggered nausea. "I missed you, dear." She stated."I missed you too, mother." Sarcasm was laced in my phrase.She broke off the hug and palmed my face while gazing smilingly at me, "I am glad that you're here." She pecked my forehead. All this fake concern was vexing me. I hated it. Especially because a mother was supposed to love her child genuinely without any selfish motives. But in this case, my mom was faking her love. She didn't love or care for me. All she truly loved an
Brenda G"I apologise for my son's behaviour," Lance stated while adjusting himself back on his seat."It's okay, I understand." I paused, then resumed, "I didn't know that you had a son." I started a conversation in an attempt to extract some useful information from him. I needed to find his weakest link and then use it to bring him down."Where is his biological mother?" I pressed further. Lance glanced at me with creased brows then lowered his eyelids as though thinking about someone. Then his eyes met mine once more. A broken look was vivid in his eyes. I had never seen this side of him because the Lance I knew was arrogant and never showed any sign of vulnerability. His grey eyes were always void of emotions. But that day, his eyes were heavy with sadness and guilt."She passed away." He choked on the words while struggling to gain his composure. "When Adrian was five."My heart twinged at his revelation. A knot of com
Brenda GSomething is wrong.I reached out to the glass of water beside the meal I had been busy pretending to be eating. Something in the food was not going well with my stomach. I could feel a gush of nausea churning down in my belly.I drank some water that pushed it down. I needed to focus and not ruin my composure at a royal dinner where everyone was busy enjoying the meal. I was the eye of the dinner, everyone kept glimpsing at me as though trying to see what I had to attract a royal prince.Beside me, Jake was busy devouring his meal, his one hand was gently rubbing my thigh while he used the free one to eat. I felt secure with him, he managed to ease my nerves ever since we arrived.Everyone was nice, I met Jake's mother who was average in height, beautiful, and always with a smile on her lips. The moment we arrived, she took me from Jake and toured me around the palace as she introduced me to other royal family members. Her husband was a straightforward person, I saw Jake in
Brenda GThe cold morning breeze nipped my skin, triggering goosebumps that swam all over my exposed flesh. I drew the shawl against my semi-naked body, in an attempt to generate some heat and hopefully snuff out the cold.The golden specks of the rising sun bathed my skin, replacing the cold with warmth. A smile curved on my lips as I watched the yellow ball of energy emerge beyond the horizon, splashing its rays on the azure ocean waters. It was the most magnificent view.We arrived at a beach house which was one of Jake's private properties. He mentioned it would be a good idea to lay low for a while together with my father and I agreed.Fresh morning air seeped through my nose, gushing into my lungs as I took a deep breath. Melodious chirps of birds and insects caressed my ears, soothing my soul.For a moment I was able to forget about the painful truth. That I was an adopted child whose biological mother died at childbirth and whose father was unknown. Did my father even know abo
Brenda GSeeing my dad again, after so many months, was the most joyous feeling for me. I couldn't stop hugging and sobbing on his shoulder as he soothed me lovingly in his arms."Dad-I am so sorry. It's because of me that you had to go through so much pain and torment." I cupped his bandaged face in my palms as tears cascaded down my cheeks."None of this is your fault. Lance and Melissa are to blame." He replied. "I should have never trusted that woman." Regret filled his eyes. "A woman as horrible as her deserves to be punished for her wrongs. Your mother entrusted her with you-" He paused after realising that he had blurted something."Is there something you're not telling me?" I dug for answers."No child, I don't want you to find out the truth this way-" He avoided eye contact."What truth? Please tell me, dad." A plea left my mouth."Brenda, it's the truth about your real mother." He spoke."Real mother? Isn't Melissa my mother?" I stuttered."No, she's not. Brenda, you are our
Jake William"Take cover!" I spun Brenda around and then rushed with her to a hidden corner, somewhere in the room, the others followed."Finally! I thought that you'd never arrive." Harriet declared as the guards untied her and Melisa. "Kill them all!" Harriet barked as she and Melissa ran off. . It was an open fire as Lance's goons shot at us and we attempted to shield ourselves with furniture."They are too many, what do we do?" Emilio shot a question at me."We need to team up and fight them off." I prompted."No, Jake, it's dangerous." Brenda protested. "We don't have enough weapons to fight them off." She added."We can't hide here knowing they are approaching us," I whispered as I checked the bullets remaining in the gun.Death was lurking in the dimly lit room like a shadow waiting to devour each and every one of us. Lance's men were turning the place inside out, trying to find us. "Come
Jake WilliamI knew saving Brenda's dad would be hard but I never inferred that it would be challenging.We had everything planned out. Things were falling into place. Thanks to Adrian, we had Brenda's dad's location. I sent the coordinates to the agents, informing them of the retrieval. It was a delicate mission. It's why I deployed skilled agents to perform the task. I was certain that It would work-that they would find Mr. Hammond and save him. To my disappointment, Lance was a step ahead of us. He managed to outsmart us.His new plan was about my royalty status. He planned to get me involved in a scandal all over the media.I was not gonna give up though, I had to fight for Brenda and her friends.I was busy plotting a plan as Lance's men dragged us towards our doom. There were five men in total and all of them were armed. Even if I attacked, I couldn't manage to eliminate all five of them."Hey, I need to go to the bath
Brenda G"It's me." The voice which was none other than Adrian's spoke. I could feel the coldness of his rings pressing the flesh of my mouth. "Come with me." He took my hand and led me to the unknown."Where are we going, Adrian?" Curiosity got the better of me."To your friends." He replied. "They asked me to fetch you." He added.A door was pushed open, to reveal a dimly lit room, "Where is this place?" I shot a question at him as soon as I walked in."It's an old guest room, no one comes here anymore." He replied."Where are they?" My eyes were scanning the place but couldn't spot anyone."Patience." I watched as he typed some numbers on a keypad that was engraved on a wall. A door creaked open -revealing a secret room."After you." He paved the way for me and I waltzed into a study room. Jake, Gena and Emilio were conversing when we walked in."Bree." Gena excitedly stated upon seeing me.
Brenda GHis question struck my ears like a bomb, leaving me paralyzed with shock. No words could come out of my mouth as I stared at the man who was on his knee with an expectant look in his eyes. My heart stilled in its cage, unable to beat.The temperature of my body dropped, triggering shivers that crawled down my spine. A mixture of emotions coursed through my being, shock being the main feeling.Why did he propose tonight? Wasn't the engagement supposed to be after a week?Questions swam through my brain, triggering confusion that ate at me mercilessly.Did he do this on purpose? To trap me? Does he perhaps know about my plan to ruin him?I couldn't find the answers to questions that were burrowing through my brain."Will you marry me?" He repeated the question while gazing into my stupefied eyes. I couldn't bring myself to say, yes. Not when I was so close to winning, so close to rescuing my dad. Not whe
Brenda GThe event was getting boring and Lance was busy with his guests. He had some guests he valued too much that he ended up letting me slip out of his arms. Which was good because I was free to at least go and breathe.My gaze settled on Jake, Gena and Emilio who were conversing among themselves. "Excuse me," I said to one of the guests whom I was talking to and made my way to the three. "Hey." They shifted their attention to me."Bree." Gena gazed at me."Can we go somewhere more private?" I proposed. The four of us scurried to an isolated kitchen away from the party."I am nervous, is everything set?" I inquired while gazing at the three."Yes. Everything is set. All that is remaining is to get a call but our plan B is still on move. " Emilio explained. "By the end of the night, we will know your father's location."Jake took my hands in his and then gave them an assuring squeeze. "I have my team of
Brenda G"My love, you look gorgeous." His warm breath scorched my cheek as he whispered the words to me. My stomach flipped with disgust at his words, brewing nausea which threatened to rip my gut apart.The feel of his lips on my cheek triggered goosebumps of antipathy which swam all over my skin. His very presence, touch, scent drove me to the peaks of dyspathy. I desiderated to tear his hand from my waist and erase his touch from my skin because everything about him ailed me to the core."Thank you, my love." The words scorched my throat like acid as they erupted from my mouth. A smile made its way to my lips as I glanced at his form. He was clad in a black six-piece suit that hugged his rotund frame, accentuating his potbelly. Grey hairs matted his chin -an indication of his ripe age. His pair of silvery irises, interlocked with mine for a moment. An icy sensation crawled down my spine as his eyes stared into mine. It felt like he was trying to u
