NICOLE I sat up on the table, hands behind me as he bent me over."Marcus, do you want me to die?!," I yelled in his mouth, feeling the hard-on in his sex."You should have thought about that when you continuously kept chattering to Mia.""But Marcus, we were just having friendly talks, and what's wrong in talking to a girl of my age and someone who came even talk back at that." My temper was rising but it did nothing to salvage the situation.Marcus did what he wanted to, in the dining room, back in the bathroom and only let go inside the bedroom after I fell unconscious." Fuck you, I said after pleading to no use."8 hours later.I woke up hours later after falling into a deep slumber, the room was silent and there was no sign of Marcus inside the room.I laid tiredly in bed, too weak to make any movement.My body ached badly as I tried to make a movement on the bed."Marcus was the cause of this" I muttered to myself.The door was clicked open and I saw Marcus walk into the room
NICOLE "Yes I'm," he said , making no efforts to refute my words.""For real Marcus, maybe I should just become a sadist now, I'm not allowed to talk to anyone, not even girls, you can as well lock me in a basement." I refuted angrily."I won't do that," he said and opened the bathroom door, walking to the bathtub, I sat down in it.He bent down and took the scrub by the tub and scrubbed my body with it.I was carried out again to the bathroom by him and then back to the bedroom."I'll be right back," he said and dashed into the cloakroom coming back with furry bear pajamas."Hahahahahahaha”, I laughed “Is this what I'm to wear Marcus, this looks like a Bunny.""Mmm, wear that if you wear lingerie," he said and pointed to a strappy lace white lingerie in the bed."This accounts to almost nothing if I'm wearing this Marcus, don't you see how revealing it is." I asked argumentatively."It's your choice, Nicole, either you wear the bunny or the lingerie," he said and walked out of the r
NICOLEThe atmosphere here in the new school was different, different faces, new people and I was glad that I didn't have to see Tim's disgusting face every day.I settled down in the middle of the class, seated in the first row.I didn't want to sit at the front nor at the back to avoid garnering unwanted attention."Hey, is that the limited edition plain jean by Mike." A girl pointed at the jean I was wearing."Wow, it looks so much like it and is very original, there isn't a copy of it right." The girl who sat beside her chipped in.I took another look at the jean I was wearing and touched the fabric.It was indeed what they said it was, Marcus had brought all the clothes in the closet and I paid little or no attention to any of them.I hurriedly took out my phone and searched for the price of the Jean."What!!!”. I exclaimed in shock at the price , I dropped the phone In my hand from the shock."Marcus was really good at throwing money around, got me contemplating if he had anyth
NICOLE "Um, I'm sorry to say Zayn but, I held my hands up and showed the ring in my finger."Incase you didn't notice, I've Someone else and he wouldn't like it when I'm the same sex talk more of the opposite sex.""Common Nicole, how handsome could your boyfriend possibly be,name it, whatever you want, I'll give it to you, multiple times what he can't give."" That's enough Zayn, you're crossing the line,and yes you're still a boy compared to him, there's no slight factor of comparison between you and him."I said back in defense of Marcus."Don't you get it Nicole,I'm the Only one who can be by your side." He said further pestering me." I've said it Zayn, you're no comparison to him, now if you'll excuse me I'm home to be." I excused myself from his sight and walked to the car getting into it after Mia opened the door.I took another look at Zayn who was being laughed out of fur being rejected,I could Only hope, he was no way like Tim.I closed my eyes and fell asleep in the car o
Chapter 81A low moan escaped from my lips as Marcus nibbled on my neck sucking hard on it.The upper left side of my neck was exposed to his lips as he sucked hard on it continually.Several red patches were formed. I'm my skin, do high up."What are you doing Marcus?, " I asked him."I'm giving you an hikey of course, so that when the Zayn guy sees you tomorrow, he'll know you're mine for real."As expected, he hadn't forgotten about "it's not my fault that wanted me, why do you have to take it out on me.His tongue trailed from my neck to my nipples, circling the areolas."I fucking want you Nicole, he whispered huskily into my ears.Four minutes of foreplay, I'd gotten so turned on from his actions.I was flipped over in an instant and felt Marcus thrust into Me from behind."Ahhh," I moaned under his thrusts.Moans and groans filled the bathroom and I held my hands up in the bathroom wall for support.I slumped back in Marcus hands after an hour of intense activity.I was carried
NICOLE Mia cleared the table after the meal while I stood up and headed to the car with Marcus.I walked back into the room to apply some foundation on my neck in a bid to hide the hickeys.I walked back outside the room under the domineering glares of Marcus."What, I'm not allowed to hide the hickeys now?" I asked him."Mm, you're not, get me a wipe Mia, he said and pulled the hood of the cap off my head and wiped the foundation on my skin off with the wipe Mia handed to him."I shouldn't have shown you that message earlier”, I muttered to myself."What did you say," he asked with his head above mine."Heh, I said nothing, I was mumbling to myself, I said back hiding the truth.“Don't try to keep things like that from me Nicole, it's good that you told me, he said still cleaning the foundation off."" Your skin is sensitive to makeup, so you don't have to use it. I'll have Mia buy you a new shirt for school if you're so adamant about hiding the hickey." He said again." There's n
Nicole“Yeah, she's," he said again, not even giving a second glance to the fidgety man."Alright, I'm leaving her in your care now, Mr. Principal. And hey, make sure your students don't go snooping around my stuff," he said, a hint of warning in his tone."Yeah, sure, I'll make damn sure nothing and nobody messes with her," he said, wiping his sweaty hands before extending them for a handshake.Seeing Marcus hesitate to shake those sweaty hands, I decided to save the principal some embarrassment.I stepped in, took his hands, and gave them a quick shake before letting go."Well, I'm outta here, Nicole," he said, planting a kiss on my lips and then turning around. His eyes scanned the crowd with a hint of intimidation.His hand grazed my neck, his fingers brushing against the hickeys.His intentions were pretty damn obvious - he was marking his territory for everyone to see.The girls around us couldn't help but gasp in jealousy as they witnessed Marcus' over-the-top display of affect
NICOLE I fell flat on the floor when I couldn't move my legs anymore, my breaths were stifled and tears fell from my face from the intense feeling of pain.Mia walked in at that moment and saw me sprawled on the floor unconscious.The bag in her hands dropped in shock, I was carried out of the room by Mia.Two hours laterI fluttered my eyelids, taking in the unfamiliar sight of the ceiling above me.Wait, this isn't my room, my mind quickly registered.A wave of reality washed over me as the strong scent of antiseptics filled my nostrils.Memories of the incident flooded back into my consciousness.I had blacked out, and the next thing I knew, Mia was by my side, holding a hot bag in her hands.She had found me unconscious on the floor and rushed me to the hospital.A surge of relief washed over me, and the pain in my stomach seemed to have dulled significantly."Mia, Mia," I called out to her from the bed where I lay, eager to see her and express my gratitude.Mia rushed to my side
"Daddy! Daddy! How does it look?"My eyes shifted from the desk to the little princess In front of me, she was holding her canvas and her eyes were glittering with so much love and hope, I never thought I would melt at such beauty but ever since I met Nicole, things changed.I was amazed at her realistic creation painting, it was a plant growing from the earth and it looked like I was watching it happen live."It's…" I paused for a while, pulling her closer to me. Ellie's eyes dulled and so her posture slacked with her emotional change."You don't like it?" It was almost a whimper before I scoffed."Ellie, I love it! It's so beautiful I wasn't able to comprehend it. It's something your mom would have painted." I smiled at her and she set the canvas down before jumping on my lap, "she'll be proud.""Do you think she's going to come back?" The question always stung my heart, I didn't have the answer to it, I've always had a solution for every problem, except for this one."Yes, she will
NICOLE “If you think some superhero is going to swoop in and save your sorry asses, then you thought wrong," Mariella sneered, her voice dripping with contempt.We were holed up in an underground house, a safe haven turned into a grim prison. Ellie and I sat huddled on the floor, our hair disheveled, our clothes stained and torn.Mariella paced around the room like she owned the place, her hand confidently planted on her hips. She chewed her gum obnoxiously, the sound echoing through the tense air.“Now that I think about it," she said, her words laced with cruel calculation. "How much should I sell you both for? Let's leave the little girl out of it. You, my dear, are worth way more than her. You're a package deal, two for the price of one."I instinctively placed my hand on my belly, a protective gesture that seemed to amuse Mariella. She let out a mocking laugh as she observed my action."Aww, Marcus' little heir is in there, huh? Poor baby," she sneered, scrunching down to my lev
MARCUSI sat at the dimly lit bar, swirling the drink in my hand, my mind wandered to Vicky. She had been nothing but kind to me. I prayed she was still alive, hoping that fate had spared her from the clutches of the child trafficking ring. I felt responsible for her since she had no one else to help her.She had no family or friends and she looked to me like a brother.My concerns deepened as the realization struck that I hadn't heard from Nicole in days. The last time we spoke was when I called and she informed me that she now had the company of a little girl at home.I was happy with that. At least she won't be lonely and would have someone to talk to. Even if it was just a child.I tried calling her number a few times, but it was unreachable. The bar had started to empty out, leaving only a rowdy group of girls. From the moment I arrived, I could feel their eyes on me, but I did my best to ignore their glances.As the place grew practically deserted, I couldn't help but notice o
NICOLE The police were still trying to trace Mariella’s location, yet nothing has been found. It was as if she was no longer on planet earth.I was trying to finish up another of my paintings that I had started a few days back. I was hoping to go donate it at the orphanage. These past weeks I've grown accustomed to visiting the place. Marcus came in and peeped at my work, nodding his head in approval. “You’re almost done”I smiled, “Yes I am. It just needs some finishing touches”“I'm going to the police station to see how far they've gone with the investigation, I'll be back in a few days” he said, stroking my back.“Alright. Be good” I watched Marcus leave the room, his footsteps fading away as he made his way toe find Vicky.With a sigh, I turned my attention back to my painting.Hours passed, and my painting finally took its final form.I stepped back to admire it. It was a depiction of a serene meadow, with blooming flowers and a radiant sunset in the background.I prepared to l
MARCUSAll three of us sat at the dining table, the aroma of freshly cooked waffles and sausages filling the air. I had woken up early, determined to mend the strained atmosphere with a delicious breakfast. Nicole, however, was still giving me the silent treatment, her expression somber as she pushed her food around her plate.The tension was palpable, and I could feel my own discomfort growing with each passing second. It seemed like an eternity until Vicky decided to break the ice.“Nicole," Vicky spoke up, her voice soft but pleading. Nicole looked up, her eyes meeting Vicky's gentle gaze. "Yeah?""I understand that you might be upset, but please don't take it all out on Marcus. He was just trying to help me”Nicole let out a sigh and muttered, "Don't worry about it. We're cool." But her dismissive tone revealed that she wasn't cool at all. She finished eating in silence, abruptly standing up from the table and leaving me and Vicky behind.Vicky let out a disappointed sigh, her ta
MARCUSRight now me and Nicole were sitting next to each other, and Mia was sitting across from us at the station. There was this barricade thing separating us.Nicole, being her stubborn self, had insisted that we take care of Mia's kid. And I had no choice but to go along with it. What else could I do? Nicole can be pretty persuasive when she wants to be.“Thank you both so much for forgiving me and forgetting the past. I don’t know how else I can thank you, but I really appreciate your effort” Mia clasped her hands together. Her nose was a bit swollen due to her condition, she was probably in her third Trimester while Nicole was in her second.“It’s fine. We are more than happy to help” Nicole beamed at her.I nodded in agreement, offering a smile to Mia. "Absolutely, Mia. We understand that people make mistakes, and we believe in giving second chances."She reached out to touch her swollen belly. "This baby means the world to me. I promise I'll do whatever it takes to make thing
NICOLEShe did a double take. “Nicole? What a surprise. I didn't know you were coming” Well, I didn't know it was going to be your house too. I pressed my lips together, attempting to regain composure. "Lovely home," I managed to say, glancing around at the interior."You're already drenched from the rain. Come, let me change you into a comfortable outfit," she offered, guiding me towards her room located down the hallway.So Marcus had sneaked out of the house to come to visit Vicky. I was getting closer to the answer but I didn't like how it was headed.Her room was big and painted in lavender. A cozy armchair was placed near a bookshelf. Nearby, a small vanity table displayed a collection of antique perfume bottles, a hand mirror, and a hairbrush.“You can take your seat over there” she gestured to the armchair and walked into her walk-in closet. After a moment, she emerged with this loose fitting dress and handed it to me.“Here," she said, passing me the clothes. "Put these on
NICOLE “Ms. Nicole?" the little voice called out, unsure. I looked down and recognized Ellie, the little girl I had met at the art gallery previously.What was she doing out here alone?I grinned. "Hey, Ellie. We meet again. How are you?""I'm fine. I'm so happy to see you," she smiled brightly. That was when I noticed the frame she was holding, wrapped in brown paper."What are you doing here all by yourself?"She gestured to the frame she was holding. It was a wonder how she was able to carry it alone. "Oh, I came to donate this work of art.""Really? That's so thoughtful of you," I said, holding her hands in mine and helping her carry the painting. "Come on, let's go submit it, and after that, we can get some ice cream. How does that sound?""Perfect!" she cheered. Together, we walked to the front desk, and I assisted her in signing her name before we dropped off the painting.I was still surprised that a girl of her age could come all the way to the orphanage without a guardian.
NICOLE“What is he doing here?" I poked the window of my car as I saw my husband standing at the entrance of some strange house. His composure seemed anxious and though I was no detective, he looked like he was about to do something shady.A figure opened the door and it looked like it was wearing a robe. A woman? Was it Vicky??I tried to look closer but I couldn't see her face, his body language softened when she opened the door and she let him in.Marcus was with another woman."No, I can't be thinking like this." I relaxed my back in the chair as I rubbed my temples, there was no way he could be cheating, not after everything we have been through but why would he choose to hide this from me? What was the big deal that he couldn't tell me he needed to see someone at 2 am?Oh.Realization dawned on me and I kicked the ignition, I needed to get home,he could come out at any time and he was a better driver. I revved the engine and off I was. The road was free, everyone was at home
