“Hi.” Marilyn said, walking up to him to pick him up. He was awake and still in a sour mood.“Leave me alone, I want my mama.” He said kicking and trying to resist her. “Okay baby, if you come out for breakfast and take a bath then I might get her back.” She lied. “Really?” he said as his eyes widened with excitement. She smiled and nodded. “Yay!” he yelled as he jumped up and down, then raised his hand signaling to her to pick him up which she did and closed the door. “So what would you like to eat?” She asked. “Pancakes and maple syrup please.” He smiled, quite excited. “Aye Aye little man!” She said with a mock salute, earning a fit of laughter from him. “My name is Ace. What's yours?” he asked. “Marilyn.” She said, smiling. “Marie.” He grinned cheekily.“Marie?” She chuckled.“I'm gonna call you Marie.” He said smiling, as he avoided her eyes. He was shy, Marilyn liked him already. “I like it.” She said making a blush creep up his cheek. He was so adorable. He had all o
I paced my room thinking of what to do. There was no excuse to give Dad. I was expected to get married in two months and finally take over what’s rightfully mine.I was beyond ready for the job’s stress and responsibility. But the marriage part, not so much.I was fine with my numerous one night stands. That lifestyle best suited me. It was also a bonus knowing I didn’t even need to speak to have them head over heels for me. My looks and appearance already seal the deal way ahead.I could easily date any girl of my choice but they are far too cheap for my taste. I wanted a girl who wouldn't drool over me. One who could stand her ground and not follow my every whim like a hopeless puppy.I poured myself a shot of vodka and downed it immediately, feeling the cool liquid burn down my throat. My hair was disheveled and I looked like crap. There was a stubble on my face and I had small bags under my eyes.I couldn’t process my thoughts at the moment but one stood out. I couldn’t lose it al
Ace“Dude look, she is here.” Philip said as Jennifer walked through the hallways with her minions. She spared me a wink and walked past. She's been throwing herself at me since 11th grade till now. I was a senior and so was she, Philip and my other friends. We were a typical highschool boy crew with sleek cars, messy hairstyles, a top notch fashion sense, power and daddy’s money. We were used to girls throwing themselves at us. We were the-“Look she's leaving.” He said, dragging me from my train of thoughts.He was referring to Anastasia, as she was about to walk past and I bumped into her making her books fall as she bent down to pick them up.“Sorry, I'm so sorry.” She said sympathetically which amused me as I barked out my laughter. “Watch where you are going next time.” I said, making her gape at me. I knew why she was surprised. My clique never says sorry or acts nicely. We were always seen as a bunch of jerks. Word gets around.“Sorry.” she said once again. Well that was
Ana’s POVAs I headed to the cafeteria, I was searching for my money in my bag. I wasn't paying attention and I bumped into someone. I felt something cold spill on my shoes and the hem of my jeans. I looked down at it and saw that it was soda. I groaned and looked at the culprit. Ace.He was the hottest guy in this school. His muscles were taut and I could see his abs through his shirt. He had a sharp jaw and a small, perfect nose. "Are you done checking me out?” He sassed. "You wish I was checking you out, haven't you heard of watching your way while walking?” "At least a sorry will do."I said.“Wait, you bumped into me. Therefore, you don't have the right to sass at me." He said which made me even more furious. "Excuse me, you walked right into me, spilled your freaking drink on my shoe and you are telling me it’s all my fault? You’ve got some nerve motherfucker!" I yelled at him. “What?” He looked taken aback.“What?” I frowned further.“What’s wrong?” He asked tenderly.“

“Here, put this on.” Dustin handed Donovan a mask which the latter hurriedly pulled on. Dustin followed suit.“Ever shot a gun before?” He asked as he slipped the key into the ignition. He turned it causing the vehicle to roar to life.“Yeah.”“Really?” He looked a tidbit shocked.“Yeah. You seem surprised.”“I am.”“I once worked at a shooting range.”“Oh that explains it.”“Pretty much.”“Great. Get strapped.” He said and Donovan did the needful. Dustin swerved onto the dirt road before speeding ahead, causing a cliff of dust behind the truck.“Stay put.” He said to Donovan as he parked the truck right abeg before walking towards a few guys.“Hey brother.” One of the men acknowledged Dustin.“How’s it going man?” He responded and exchanged handshakes with all three men, except the one on his knees, a bag over his head, his hands and legs; bound.”“Is that him?” Dustin asked the leader.“You tell me.” He gruffed, giving him the go-ahead to take the paper bag off. Dustin did and stare

September, 1996."I'm pregnant." She said, making him freeze in his tracks. "Who’s the dad?" He asked, crossing his fingers as his heartbeat was becoming rapid. "You." She deadpanned.No. No. No. No. No. No“This isn’t happening right now. She couldn't be pregnant. This is a huge mistake.” He thought."How far are you?" He asked."Two months." she replied, quite nonchalant about it.He was engaged to the woman of his ‘dreams’ and Candace was his girlfriend. “How did I ever make this mistake?” He thought. "You have to get rid of it." He said, panic evident in his voice."Not a chance." She said as her nostrils flared, signifying that she was annoyed. She got up from her chair abruptly, making a sharp scraping sound as she turned on her heels and was on her way to the door. "Candy..." was all he could say before he was cut by the sound of the door being slammed in his face. She slammed the door and stormed out of his office. “I don’t need him or anyone else.” She got her document
