................. Amanda's pov................
I woke up with my head throbbing a bit.
It banged slowly but still made me feel uncomfortable.
Seriously?
I have a headache today.
And today that is my wedding?
I smiled staring at the extra long and intoxicating wedding gown that hung at the end of the room.
This is happening...
Not a dream at all!
I painstakingly climbed down from the bed and went to the bathroom. I pressed a button and my maids rushed in.
They helped me fix my bath, washed my hair and prep my makeup...
They also helped me fit into my gown.
The hair stylists were already ready and they got to work.
The make up artists followed.
I tried not to appear nervous as different faces stared down at me, turning me into something I couldn't describe.
They were finally done and I just stared at my face like a dummy.
Is this really me?
The Amanda with no surname
Amanda's pov:I held onto my bag tightly as I stared out the window. This is the first time am leaving the Orphanage. I don't know but it still looks like a dream to me!One day am there then the next, a beautiful rich woman, Mrs Carol visits and wants to adopt me.If you're an orphan, you'd understand how I feel.19 good years of being at that place, I gave up hope of being adopted.I thought I would spend my whole life there... But it seems like my fate twisted.The big hilux entered a huge compound with flowers here and there.And at the extreme, there's a huge building just like the white house in America except that this one is painted pink.My heart couldn't stop beating loudly.Amanda, you actually have a family now! And a wealthy one at that!I was more than happy.Goosebumps popped out of my skin when mrs Carol stopped the car in front of the mansion.She hasn't said a word to me since we met.The
Amanda's pov:I was on my bed just watching the maids converse and laugh.I prefer the Orphanage to this place...This place is too boring and big for me.When I look at my future...I view nothing at all.I feel so useless and stranded.What's mrs Carol's plan for me? Why did she bring me here?I stood up and left the room.I really want to see the whole house.I went up the stairs walking fast and sneaking around cause I know if Mrs Carol sees me, am as good as dead...~~~~~~~~~Royce's pov:"Oh yeah...more! Royce...." Kimora bemoaned with her hands on her butt cheeks.I was f--king her in a doggy style. That's the way I want it...Especially with her.My loaded girlfriend, Kimora is obsessed with me.I don't care if all she needs is my money but as long as she doesn't deny me her honeypot, we're good to go."Oh geez..." She cried as we hit climax.The pleasure flows in and I
Amanda's pov:I quickly got to my feet in a jiffy."Am so sorry, please for--""Such clumsiness, were you born blind?" He asked as he stood up.First day and am getting into so much trouble.I shook my head."Am so sorry" I shrieked and ran out like usain bolt.I didn't even know where I was going.How could Bryan be so mean?I admired his great looks but he's just a heartless gorgeous guy..Royce is way better than him but still am no longer mad at him.Though he spoke to me badly, I still feel not so offended.I think am going insane.geez, let this day end already.~~~~~~~~~~~I woke up early and got ready for school. A rich school to be precise...Mrs Carol atleast bought me clothes.Am guessing the clothes are from her cause I woke up and saw two big shopping bags next to my bed."Uh..Taylor, can you please tell me the way to my school" I said to her when she stepped out
Amanda's pov:I sat with Jade and Phoebe as they talked nonstop about Bryan.They've been talking since and aren't tired.I wonder if this is their daily routine.How can someone love Bryan this much?"Amanda, you're kinda quiet. Don't you know Bryan?" Jade asked.I shook my head."I don't" I lied remembering mrs Carol's instructions.'Don't let anyone suspect you live with us'."He's not in school today but you can still manage this" Phoebe jibed and pointed at Jade's shirt.I nodded with a wry smile looking at Bryan's cute face.He's so adorable.I don't know why am this soft spotted for him. Maybe cause I've never actually liked someone to want to be with them my whole life...A tall slim woman walked in and everyone sat properly.Wait a minute, this school doesn't look so sumptuous as I thought.Why would billionaires attend such school?Then I remembered it might be by choice.
Amanda's pov:The next morning was fast and annoying. The maids left me to do the dishes and believe me, there was a lot.This feels like the Orphanage.Am usually asked to help do the dishes and I always agree.Am not used to turning people down.I walked to school this time around cause there was no sign of Royce anywhere.Besides, it's not like he's my driver or anything.I attended classes with Jade and Phoebe by my side. The teacher hadn't come yet so Everyone was scattered around the class talking and laughing.A man with huge glasses came in and everyone started to adjust which felt like a deja vu since it happened yesterday.I brought out my books and dropped them on my desk.I looked around..Where's Bryan?"Looking for someone?" Jade whispered to me.I nodded slowly."I was expecting to see Bryan today" I replied despondently.Phoebe chuckled."He's up there girl. VIP clas
Amanda's pov:"I don't like any of them" I replied short of words.She scoffed."Even a blind man knows you're into Royce" she blurted.My heart starts to race.This girl is surely going to cast me."I'm not.." I interpolated."Then what were you doing in his room? Don't you see the way he looks at you? Don't tell me you find that ordinary" she said with an eye roll.I was dumbfounded."Here's the thing. In case you don't know, Royce and Bryan aren't in the good terms. They argue like cats and dogs but you haven't witnessed them fight yet cause Bryan has been quiet and busy this days."Royce screwed Bryan's ex girlfriend Stacy while he had a girlfriend. So Bryan hates him so much. But one thing's for sure, Bryan is cursed and I don't think he'll ever be happily Inlove with someone" Minnie enthused and sighed.Wow...
Amanda's pov:I sat by the kitchen counter scribbing something on my notepad. I love writing songs that come to mind so I do this often.Taylor walked in with the head maid.They have been busy for a while"You, carry this drinks and go serve the kids outside. And be polite" the head maid said."I..I can't serve them..." I stuttered"And why is that?" She sneered.I sighed.I don't want to see him - Both Bryan and Royce."Let me serve the drinks--" Taylor intervened."No, let her do it" the head maid insisted.I carried the tray with so much thoughts going through my mind.I would see him again after the crazy ordeal last night.I can do this...I got to the garden sight where a big speaker was and music was playing loudly.I
Amanda's pov:I woke up with the maids and helped get breakfast ready. It's so stressful cause the head maid seemed to be giving Me more work than I supposed to carry out.I nearly broke down...What sort of punishment is this?I got ready for school and had breakfast with Taylor before I ran off hoping not to miss the bus.I got outside the gate and to my suprise, Bryan's car was outside.He normally goes out with a white Benz with his signature on it with gold paint.I though he already left for school.He got down and I felt so strange.What's that feeling."Let's go together. Get in" he said and entered the car.Free ride!I entered and held onto my bag tightly. He started driving.I looked back though I didn't know why I wanted to.I saw Royce driving out in his blue Ferrari car.Oops,&n

........Carol's pov...I laid on the bare floor in the prison cell I was.Weak, tired and drained of my strength.How can everything turn out this way?Oh God!I've been passed sentence, Life imprisonment.I sobbed.How can my kids do this to me? After I gave them everything a mother could possibly offer.They threw that away and joined forces in sending me to jail.I did it all for them.I became greedy because of them...I remember carrying Amanda who was just nine months old. I handed her to my employee to dispose. Later I found out the lady didn't kill her but gave her out.I killed the lady and after months of searching for baby Amanda,...I gave up.It was recently I saw Amanda in an orphanage bus, I guess they were going on a field trip.I noticed she looked so much like Natalie.I had to find out if she was truly Natalie's blood.It took long before I could get her
.........Royce's pov........I yanked the man's head painfully and he yelled in pain."Who hired you?!!!" I yelled into his face.The police men stood behind him to make sure I don't kill him."Fu*k off!" He yelled."That's not the answer I want. Seems like you don't value your legs" I stated and grabbed a bat...I was about to use it on his knee when he stopped me."Please! I'll confess..." He cried.I glanced at him."It was a fair woman named mrs Carol Dickson. That's the only thing I know, I don't know where she lives or work--" he kept blabbing but my mind was off at the mention of 'mrs Carol Dickson'.My head was banging with shock and I couldn't just believe it."Recorded" One of the policemen said and dragged the guy out.Bryan was outside.I heard a loud commotion. I rushed out to see Bryan beating up the goon.I rushed to him to calm him down while the policemen rushed o
.............Royce's pov............I pressed the door bell and Kimora opened up in no time."Royce..." She breathed out obviously shocked to see me in her house without her pestering me to come over.I went in and shut the door behind me and I went for her. Claiming her lips as my hands rested on her waist pulling her close.She broke the kiss to catch her breath."I've been calling you but you haven't been answering my calls. I texted you a dozen times and you haven't even seen them... I also--"I shut her up with a kiss and she wrapped her hands around my neck. She moaned into my lips.I lifted her up and she wrapped her legs around my waist. We kissed and bit on each other's lips hungrily.I carried her to her room and dropped her on the bed. I took off my jacket, next was my shirt.I took off her singlet and unhooked her bra. Luckily, she was in her night shorts so I just pulled it off without stress.I suck
.......Amanda's pov.......I was back to the hotel with Royce. I laid on my bed going through my new phone while Royce was in his room probably sleeping.I went to the image section. Photos of Bryan popped up.Whoa...Didn't see that coming.There were lots of his photos and I hugged my phone. I kissed Bryan's hot photo. I miss him so much...When will I see him again? I just hope he comes tomorrow.My phone rang.Bryan.I quickly picked it up."Hey babe. Are you guys back?" He asked.I smiled."Yes. A while ago. Are you ready for bed?" I asked."Yeah. I can't wait to see you tomorrow. What should I get for you?"."Nothing...Am okay. How's Minnie?" I asked."She misses you but she'll be okay. Is Royce sleeping? Are you guys sharing a bed?" He asked."Nooo... He's in his room in the suit" I replied with a chuckle."That's good. I want to see you. Should we video chat
.......Amanda's pov.......I stared at the strange woman that just called my name. Do I know her from somewhere? I racked my brain...No clue.Bryan slowly left me as the lady came close. Two men in black suit showed up and collected the lady's luggage."I'll be down soon" she said to them and they left then she turned to me."Amanda...your name is Amanda right?" She asked balantly.I nodded finding it all strange.The lady is very pretty and dressed so rich and wealthy. She wore gold accessories...She's no ordinary person."Your birthmark...can I see it?" She asked pointing at my waistline.Bryan made me stand behind him."You want to see what?" He asked glaring at the lady.geez, he can't even respect her despite the fact the lady is dressed expensive and sumptuous...She chuckled."Relax dear, I just want to see something on her waist. Am not stealing your girlfriend" she said."C'mo
.........Amanda's pov........I was still watching TV.It's been so long...There were so many channels too.This is what freedom feels like.Back at the orphanage, we'll have to wait till movie night before seeing a movie.There was so much food in the fridge and I've eaten enough.I woke up to find the door locked and no Royce.The door opened.He's back!I looked keenly at the door and next thing shocked me, a guy with a mask walked in. Then he removed the mask..."Bryan!" I ran to him and hugged him despite the fact my tmy was still hurting.He was holding a big bag but he dropped it and carried me up.I missed him so much.He dropped me and we shared a kiss."I missed you" he said.I sniffed.He took me to the bed and made me sit. He lifted my shirt and stared at the place that had been bandaged.He couldn't take his eyes off it."Am fine Bryan. I
.........Carol's pov....... "Actually...I didn't see where the bullet was coming from not to speak of who shot us. If it's a woman or a man, I have no idea" Minnie replied and I was relieved. Bryan didn't say anything else but went upstairs. Am safe. ........Amanda's pov........ I opened my eyes slowly. I feel so weak and some part of my abdomen hurts. I looked at my right and found Royce staring at me. I flinched. "Hey" he said in a hoarse voice. I couldn't say anything but just sit up leaning on the pillows. "Hi" I mumbled. "You've been unconscious for two days. You survived the bullets" he said. Wow... I can't believe am actually alive. "Where are we?" I asked. "At a hotel. I wanted you to be conscious before we go home, that's if you want to" he said and I shook my head. "I don't want to..." I mumbled. "Oh, what of Bryan? Does he know am
Carol's pov: I drove through the wet streets of Florida to the garden. It's a popular one and everyone knows this place. I could barely see where I was going thanks to the mirror wipers I still had eyes on the road. The rain is hectic and I feared I'll catch a cold after this. I parked my car somewhere and walked through the long garden. There were streets lights so I wasn't going through the dark. I paused when I saw someone sitting on the floor backing me. geez,. The rain was beating him but he didn't move on bit. Who could that be? I held my umbrella firmly over my head which wanted to
