PATRICIA'S POVI sat on the couch in my living room watching a soap opera when my phone rang out. I checked the caller and rolled my eyes. I picked up the call and waited a bit for the person on the other end to talk. " Hello ma'am, I have something that might interest you. " The voice said. " It better be news that is worthy of my time. " I said, " There is going to be a wedding tomorrow."" Who cares? " I snapped at her. " Is this why you called me this early? Seriously, I don't know why I'm still putting up with you."" N..No..No ma'am! " she stammered. Even if she was older than I am, she knew better than to get on my wrong side. She knew what I was capable of. Besides, I'm paying her. " Why are you calling me then? " I asked impatiently. " You don't quite understand what I meant. I was trying to inform you that my boss and a'am Mia are getting married tomorrow. "" What? " I almost choked on my saliva. "You mean to tell me that Aiden and Mia are getting married tomorrow a
AIDEN'S POVThese past few days have been hell for me since Mia got kidnapped. What a horrible way for someone who just got married to spend her honeymoon. I have exhausted all of my contacts including Jordan's just to get my wife and unborn child back home safe and sound. It has been days with sleepless nights without food. Everywhere in the house has been silent like we were mourning. Which is my greatest fear. I have promised to pay anyone who could provide us with the exact location of where she was taken too.Of course, we have been receiving calls based on that and each time the troops go there, it would turn out to be a force call. So far, there hasn't been anything positive from anywhere. And as for Nadia, we are yet to get any information on her whereabouts. It feels like they all vanished into the thin air. Right now, I'm seated with Audrey, Jordan and Mr. Q. They all had one or two pieces of information they got about Mia and Nadia. " I got a call from someone this mor
AIDEN'S POVI anxiously waited in front of Mia's room with Jordan. I could feel Jordan staring at me with pity but my mind was everywhere. I couldn't focus on anything.My phone rang out and I dug it out of my pocket. It was Audrey. I swiped the screen and picked it up." Hello Aiden. Jordan texted me . How's Mia doing? " " I…..I…d…don't k…know. " I croaked out." Just calm down, Aiden. She'll be fine. She's a fighter and has always been a fighter. Nothing will happen to both of them."" I hope so this time. I don't know what I'll do if something were to happen to our baby again. "" Just be positive bro. I'll be with you in a jiffy. Be strong for us. " With that she ended the call." We can't keep standing here, Aiden." Jordan said, " Let's just wait at the reception."I nodded my head in response because I was too weak to argue with him. I wanted to stay there but I have to stay strong for Mia.We walked back to the reception and I sat with my head bowed down. I couldn't help but f
MIA'S POV MIA'S POVI woke up a little before dawn in a strange room with a terrible headache. I looked around trying to figure out whose room it was. Suddenly, I realized that there was another figure laying beside me without any clothes on. I gasped in surprise as I also realized that I was equally naked.I sat up abruptly but the pain in my head made me scream out loud. I held my mouth and squeezed my eyes shut as I saw the man turn. Praying in my mind that he doesn't wake up. To my utmost relief, he slept back. I looked at the man who was now sleeping soundly beside me one more time as I put on my clothes and hurriedly left the premises before anyone saw me.Back in my room, I tried to remember how I ended up in that room and when I met the man. No matter how hard I tried, I could not remember anything about that. Rather, the memories of what transpired that night came rushing back to me." Please sir, don't do this to me. Who are you? Let me go". With tears in my eyes, I tried
MIA'S POV "You?" I blurted out to him accusingly and angrily as soon as I recovered from the shock of seeing him again. I could not refrain from using my tongue. The next thing I heard him ask me arrogantly was. "Do I know you? Have we met before?" How belittling that question was to me.I glared at him in response. I wanted to say more to him right there but his sister interrupted. "She is Mia Anderson, your new personal Assistant" She replied. "Miss Anderson, please watch the way you speak to me. I hate clumsy, tacky and loud mouthed people who don't think before they speak. Did you get that?". How dare he talk to me like this?. I was fuming with anger within me but I couldn't say anything. "Please see her out Audrey. Tell Margarita to show her what she needs to do and make sure she does her work well" "Way to go Mia, what a great impression you made there. If you must work here, you must learn not to overstep your boundaries with my brother" I heard Miss Audrey say
MIA'S POV I knocked on his office door before entering with my breath held not knowing what was coming. "What the hell was that all about Madeleine?" "My name is Mia not Madeleine ". "I don't give a damn what your name is. Don't you ever speak to me in that manner let alone in the presence of my staff or anyone else at that". He stood up from his chair and stopped right in front of me. I swallowed the lump in my throat as I took in his intimidating size. "Look here missy, I don't know what your problem is and I definitely do not give a damn about it. But I'm telling you right now, if you love your job and want to keep it, you better do as you are told. Because if this insolent behavior of yours repeats itself again, I won't hesitate to fire you.Do I make myself clear? ". Waiting for an answer from me, I decided not to give him any. He stared at me for some time without a word.Then he repeated the question but this time with an hard glare. "DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR ?". "Yes
CHAPTER FOURAIDEN'S POVDid she just say that she will not allow anyone to treat her like a whore including me? Did I hear her right? " What did you just say to me?". I asked her. Not like I was expecting any answer from her; because keeping mute when asked some certain questions has become her speciality. To my greatest shock, she repeated herself again." You heard me right sir. I won't allow anyone disrespect me by treating me like a whore and that includes you sir". Dumbfounded, I just stared at her even though I was so angry at her right now. Knowing that what she just did will definitely cost me a partnership. She sure does have a sharp tongue."Miss Anderson, do you realize what you just did right now? Do you know that this reckless action could cost me a partnership I have long waited for?'."With all due respect sir, somebody just molested me in your presence and you are worried about your partnership with him? What was I expecting from someone like you? You all are
MIA'S POV" We WHAT!?? "..... He shouted back at me. Oh My God!!! Why the hell is he feigning ignorance?.." The night we had SEX or should I say the night you raped me" "Hold it up right there!!!....We had sex? You mean I slept with you? Rape you, you say? Are you sure you are not mistaken? Jesus Christ Miss Anderson, are you out of your mind? I barely know you for pete sake. Now, I'm convinced that you were sent to destroy me. Who paid you to do this to me? Whose dog are you?" He asked with a look of disgust evident on his face. "Yes,you raped me and no, I'm not mistaken." I declared with my chin up,meeting his gaze with my teary ones. "Why did you do it?You ruined my life Mr Black and I hate you so much with all of my heart" However, I should have been more prepared because the moment I uttered those statements, he was right in front of me. For the first few minutes, there was complete silence. I was held captive in the grip of his unwavering calculating gaze.His gaze pierced
