.......Kira's pov......
I was almost way into dreamland when I heard a faint cry outside.
My eyes flared open and I sat up on the bed looking around. Brandon was fast asleep beside me.
I glanced at the window.
A white cat!
Oh my...
It was raining outside and it looked drenched. I rushed to it and opened the window. It couldn't even move.
I carried the cutie inside the room and dropped it on the table as it shivered.
Where did this white angel come from??
I took a towel and wrapped him up drying him with it.
I carried it into my arms and patted it's nice white fur.
"Me...ow" it said softly and I couldn't help but giggle.
Its so adorable and awfully cute!
Aww.
I dropped him on the table and took some blankets from Brandon's wardrobe. I made a little bed for him. Comfy and warm before dropping him inside it.
He curled and slept off.
I returned to the bed and slept off.
**Next_morning**
........Mr Adam's pov.......
I was already dressed up for work before I glanced at the calender and discovered there are no meetings today.
I pulled off the clothes and wore something casual for the day. What do I do to keep myself busy today?
I laid on the bed staring at the ceiling.
I already had breakfast.
Hmph.
I climbed down from the bed and wore my flip flops before going to the door, I left the room.
I walked past Kira's room.
That witch gave me nightmares.
I got to the sitting room and sat down turning on the TV. I'll just watch the television till I get sleepy and I'll sleep some more.
.......Kira's pov......
I woke up before Brandon and carried the sleeping cat to my room.
It looked like he had cold and I wondered if human cold relieving drugs would work on him or worsen it.
I covered him up before going to have a bath.
I wore something hot and pretty good.
There's no law that said a doctor had to cover up all day.
I might need a boyfriend sooner or later.
I've been chasing my career that I pushed all the boys away. And right now, I regret doing that.
I feel lonely knowing there's no one that care about me or I have to think about.
I sighed as I stared at the blue jumpsuit I was wearing which looked good on me.
I left the room and closed the door cause of the cat.
I left the window open incase it wants to leave.
I walked past the sitting room and paused when I saw Mr Adam alone watching television. He put his whole focus on whatever movie that was going on.
He bit his lower lips and licked it.
I couldn't take my eyes off his pink yummy looking lips.
Oh my God!..
I've never seen someone so good looking and is also endowed with a great slim body.
I remember seeing that chest for the first time last night. I could have stared at him till the next morning if not for Brandon.
"Why are you staring at my dad?" I heard and flinched remembering I was hiding from mr Adam.
Oh mercies!.
This boy is such a kill joy.
"Oh...nothing" I replied him rubbing the back of my hair...
"Okay, good morning auntie Kira" he said before running to his father.
He jumped on him but mr Adam's once quiet mood changed to that off anger and disgust.
"Get off me Brandon!" He yelled at him and he jerked up sitting beside him instead.
"You're not going to work today daddy?" He asked playing with a gold chain in mr Adam's trouser.
"No, I ain't going anywhere" he replied and changed the channel to a cartoon network.
He stood up probably not wanting to spend more time with his son...
"Dad...let's go out. Maybe shopping" little Brandon said pouting and looking moody.
I watched mr Adam's expression - yea...anger.
He bit his lower lip and sighed.
"Fine, let's just go around the park and get ice cream then we're coming home" he grouse.
Brandon jumped up happily.
"Yey! Thanks dad, I'll go call aunt Ki..."
"Will you shut the hell up?!!" Mr Adam barked at Brandon and he stuttered back looking frightened.
This man is hurting the little boy.
I felt so sad for him.
"Please dad...she won't get you mad, I promise" Brandon said giving his dad puppy eyes...
Aww..
He must really want me to come with them.
Mr Adam scoffed and looked away like he was in deep thought.
"Fine...go and call the witch" he said rolling his eyes.
You got to be kidding me!
........Kira's pov.........I was at the back seat in the car while Brandon was at the front seat with his father.Brandon increased the volume of the song playing. Mr Adam turned the song off completely and continued driving.I rolled my eyes at him.He's the main kill joy.He glanced at me through the front mirror and I stuck out my tongue and shook my head doing a childish act.He glared at me before taking his eyes back to the road. We got to the park and stepped down from the car.Brandon and I followed his father who was heading straight to an ice cream vendor. He bought us ice cream and we sat on a table.Brandon began licking his ice cream immediately while I licked mine slowly.Mr Adam just sat on his seat away from me operating his phone."Dad, can I have your ice cream too?" Brandon asked and his father glared at him.He carried his plate of ice cream and shifted it closer to himself on the table."I rather pour it away than give you more. When did you become greedy Brandon
...........Kira's pov..........He finally got the cat off his face and rushed to the window. He threw the cat all his might and I guess it flew far away.Oh!That must hurt.Mr Adam turned and I saw a scratch by his cheek. It was bleeding."Who let that cat into this mansion?" He asked sternly glaring at me.I began to stutter."It...it was cold and sick" I stammered."What is wrong with you?? Can you ever stay a second without causing trouble!??" He yelled."Yelling at me doesn't change anything mr Adam just tell me where the first aid..."He raised his hand signalling me to stop talking.I kept shut."Get out of my room cause the more second you stay here, the more am pushed to scratch your face" he stressed out."Yeish sir, are you now a cat?" I asked pouting.He shot me a stare that delivered a message. I quickly ran out of the room...........Mr Adam's pov.......Can this day get any worse?.First I touched the doctor and now I just fought with a cat.Geez,I went to the bathroo
......Kira’s pov.....We walked into his office and he headed over to his table.“Kira…come here” he said and I moved over to him.I wasn’t so close either.He opened the document on the table and flipped the pages.Believe me, I was so curious about what he wanted to show me.He breathed out with his gaze fixed on the papers.“He’s dying Kira” he dropped the bombshell and I cringed.What…what does he mean?“I don’t understand. Who’s dying?” I asked as my eyes welled up.He sighed.“Brandon is dying. According to the last check up his personal doctor conducted. One or two more attacks might take his life” he paused and looked at me deep in the eyes.My tears were becoming much but I didn’t make a sound.“I just told you cause he’ll leave us soon so you should pack your bags and get ready to leave. You can as well use the remaining days or weeks and do all things you’d want to do with him” he said and turned his back on me.“You can leave now”.I ran out of the office barely seeing whe
.............Kira's pov ............His tongue parted my lips and I felt the warmth of his mouth.Wait a minute...His neck was hot and it seemed like he was burning up. I pulled away from the intense kiss and stared into his face."What?" He asked as I touched his forehead with my palm.So hot...."Mr Adam...I think you're falling ill. Am a pediatrician but am sure you're coming down with a fever" I said wide-eyed.He scoffed and moved away from me."You don't know what you're saying. I don't fall sick" He retorted grumpily."If you're not falling then you're already sick" I replied and he glared at me.No wonder he kissed me.He has fever. For a moment there I thought he had actually fallen in love with me."You're not funny witch. Just...just help me back to my...." He paused and stared at me.Why's he looking at me like an suddenly growing two heads??"What are you staring at?" I asked getting uncomfortable.But then...He's not looking at me - he's looking at my chest.He bit hi
............Kira's pov...........I mumbled somethings still asleep. A harsh Ray of light reflected on my closed eyes but I didn't opened them just yet.This is one hell of a bed. I would have called it heaven on Earth.Suddenly, I felt drops of water on my eyes...huh?Is Mr Adam's roof leaking???More water rested on my face and am forced to sit up wide-eyed.Mr Adam stood there holding a jug filled with water. He stared at me sardonically."Mr Adam...good..." I paused when I realized it was useless greeting him."Why did you do this?" I asked wiping my wet face."What sort of stupid question is that? I wake up to find you on my bed and you still had the fu-king guts to question me?! Get off my bed!!!" He rasped and I flinched astonished."Mr Adam--" He cut me off by raising his hand in front of me."Get your butt off my bed first!" He ordered and I jumped out from the bed."But Mr Adam...you asked me to sleep beside you last night. You even held me in your sleep" I said overwhelmed
............ Kira's pov...........I've never been in such an exotic and beautiful restaurant in my entire life. The whole place was lit and there was a huge chandelier lights at the center of the place. I was so engrossed in admiring the place, I forgot I had company.*Kira!* I heard and flinched.Mr Adam was staring at me with those cold eyes of his."Place your order" He said icily and I took the menu."Daddy, i want chicken wings with lots of pepper" Brandon said excitedly and the waiter took note."Don't add much pepper. Put the one acceptable for a four years old" Mr Adam said to the waiter."I'm not so hungry. Can I get just wine?" I ordered and the waiter nodded."What kind of wine?" He asked and I stared at him clueless of the name or type of wine we got..."Get Ivy's best red wine" Mr Adam chipped in with his eyes fixed on me."Alright sir" The waiter said and wentnon his way walking as fast as possible.I gulped feeling uncomfortable with the way Mr Adam was looking at me.
..........Kira's pov ..........I took Mr Adam's hand and led him out of the basement.I'm surprised that he didn't do his 'social distance thing'.We got to the living room and I turned to him with my arms folded."You intend on beating that innocent man with your son around?" I asked sternly."He's used to it" He replied with a grin.I scoffed."No matter how hard you try, Brandon is still going to be a sweet and kind little boy" I said smiling."Who's going to die very soon" He said with a doleful look.Oh...He has to stop saying such about Brandon."Why can't you be positive for once? Miracles do happen Mr Adam" I stated and he rolled his eyes."I need you to go to the gatepost and tell the guards to wash my two cars this night" He ordered and my jaw dropped."It's already late Mr Adam!" I rasped and he glanced at me.I quickly looked down."I'll be on my way now" I muttered and left the house.How can Mr Adam be so cruel???.........Mr Adam's pov ........I smirked as she left t
.....Kira's pov.........I had breakfast with Brandon before taking him up to his room to give him his drugs.I don't feel comfortable with the bum short I'm putting on but I had to adjust in it and stop being so bashful."Um...auntie Kira, daddy wants to teach me downstairs...can you join us?" He asked and I chuckled.Mr Adam wants to teach Brandon?I won't miss it for anything!"Yeah...sure" I replied and took his arm. We went out of the room and soon we were at Brandon's study room.It's almost as big as my bedroom.Mr Adam was sitting on a seat close to the white board. He looking into a textbook and I saw how his beautiful lashes focused downwards."Am here daddy" Brandon said sitting on a plastic chair before a plastic table - just his size.Mr Adam looked up and a surprised stare emerged from his eyes as he looked down at what I was wearing.What do I think am doing???I need to change and get rid of this ungodly shorts!"Why are you still standing there like a lost chicken? Si
....................Kira's pov...................The bright sun reflected on my face and I quickly shaded it with my hand...Gosh! Can't believe it's morning already...I opened my eyes and looked around the empty bed. There was no sign of Adam...I hissed making efforts to climb off the bed without hurting my joints....My tummy was so big and all I could think of at the moment was having breakfast.I tried to control the intense hunger urge I feel most times but the cravings are too much to handle.I passed my sore feet into my flip flops and gasped noticing the slippers hugged them more tighter around the sides.My feet are expanding!!...I cringed and set myself to stand firm.Where the heck is Adam???I sauntered out of the room walking so slow like that of a snail.The kitchen was occupied and I stared in disbelief as two ladies worked on by the gas cooker.Whaaat?Where the h'll are they coming from? Could it be Adam hired them??"Good morning ma'am" They both greeted simultan
..........Adam’s pov..........I drove down the road steadily with Kira who was licking some ice cream and biting on some chips.We were still on our way to the shopping mall and she’s already buying everything edible.“Do you know who’s Brandon’s favorite musician or TV character?” I asked with my eyes fixed on the road.“Yeah…He’s head over heels in love with the Korean pop artist Rex” she replied munching on the potato chips on her thighs.“What about a cartoon character?” I further asked feeling a bit tipsy.Kira laughed and I stared at her completely lost.“Is the chips driving you crazy?”She shook her head suppressing the laughter.“C’mon babe. You should know Brandon doesn’t watch cartoons” She stated and I rolled my eyes.“Really?” I asked besumed.“Yeah…he prefers life movies and zombie apocalypse to those animated stuff. That’s why he always thinks he’s a ninja -, Jackie Chan series”.“Wow. I was thinking of throwing him a mickey mouse clubhouse party or those…childish cart
......Kira's pov........My eyes dimmed as Brandon looked at us. The look on his face was different and...cold.I've never seen him look this mean. Fear gripped me as he took a step a bit far from the edge of the building.Hew!We're making progress."I'm a very friendly person...believe me when I say I was a very magnanimous fellow. I had friends irrespective of their background and lifestyle."I met your mom later on and she was one of a kind. It didn't take long and we fell in love - I loved her. But then I had no idea she was after my wealth."She duped me and I almost lost everything because of her. I was so depressed and frustrated."And then the moment I had her captured and ready to destroy her, she professed that she was pregnant with my child.She died after giving birth to you and I became the most saddest man alive."I was willing to forgive her and marry her ignoring the fact that she ruined me countless times; both emotionally and financially but she made me feel worse a
.................Kira's pov .................."No!...stop!!" I rasped as the guards removed the ropes that they'd used in tying me up.I fought so hard with them."Am not leaving my son!!!" I cried as they succeeded in pulling me up.I couldn't take my eyes off Brandon. He kept his gaze away from me and I could tell he was shattered................Jade's pov.............I slammed my hands on the desk anger surging through me.That man...Ugh!Why does he always ruin my plans??He saved Kira...but...how's that possible?Can't he think of his son??Does this mean his hate for Brandon is much more deeper than I thought?F"ck!!What am I going to do with a four years old now??I wanted Kira, I had plans for her.I need to think of something. How do I use Brandon to get Kira???...............Kira's pov..........."No! Let me go!!!" I yelled as Adam dragged me into the house.I couldn't stop crying for Brandon. He's innocent and doesn't deserve to be kept hostage by that crazy woman.I
............. Kira's pov...............I didn't say anything just yet as I waited for whoever was on the other line to speak."Good morning ma'am" The feminine voice started and I became more curious cause it sounded familiar."Am Mrs Brown - Brandon's school teacher. I believe am speaking to Mrs Kira...his step mom" She said quizically and I sighed rubbing my forehead."Yes, I am" I replied displeasingly.I admit it hurts to be regarded as a step mom.Gosh!Teachers can be annoying!"Is anything wrong?" I further asked leaning back on the chair."Actually yes...Brandon is not feeling so well and I suggest you should get here as fast as you can" She said dropping a grenade at the depth of my heart.I sprang up on my feet.No!...Not again!What could be wrong with him now??"Am on my way there!" I chided and rushed out of the living room.Immediately I got outside, I alerted the driver and we raced into the car.I felt nervous and my fingers shook vigorously as I dialed Adam's number
Three months later ^ ............Kira's pov............ I rolled and rolled on the bed until I felt Adam's side - sweet natural fragrance and manly. I sat up on the bed and opened my eyes after rubbing them for what felt like forever. As expected, Adam wasn't in the room and I'm curled up in silence under the lukewarm duvet. I felt my barely baby bump and I'm left smiling broadly. Three months gone carrying my little unborn child. I can't wait to face motherhood. What am I saying?? I've already achieved that. Brandon. The operation was done before the wedding and he's all well now - for now. We're still looking out for any side effect that came with the drugs given to him during the operation. The shriek noise of the door opening dragged me back from the brink of wild thoughts. He walked in a green towel that had my name stitched on it...sophisticatedly. He was wet and seemed to have stepped out from the bathroom not long ago. He was quiet as he came to the bed. "Don't
..............Kira's pov..............My eyelids flickered open and I looked around the room.Whoa....It's morning already!!I sat up on the bed and took my eyes to my finger.Where's the ring?No...don't tell me I was dreaming.gosh!Was it all a fu'king dream???The bathroom door opened and Mr Adam walked in.Oh my God!He had a towel around his waist below and his wet bare chest glittered before me. He wore a gold pair of bathroom flip flops.I blinked rapidly trying so hard to remove my eyes from this demi god.He sighed and i awoke from my wild thoughts and little dreamland.Speaking of dream..."Good morning" I mumbled rubbing my eyes.He came to me and placed a kiss on my left cheek.Awwn."Morning babe" He replied and soon his eyes dropped to my legs."How's your legs?" He asked and my cheeks flushed instantly.I suddenly realized my v has been sore and hurting a bit.gosh!I can't believe I cried after we were done. It was quite painful and I'd guess it was because I was st
................Kira’s pov ..............Mr Adam and I walked out of the place after our date.The discussions that followed after the proposal was intriguing and I had the best time yet.I just couldn’t stop admiring my engagement ring as we drove back home.“It was hard to pick your size. I had to do it when you were asleep” He revealed like he read my mind.It fitted so perfectly and the big jewel on top was just…wow!“Um…Adam…are you taking us to my apartment so I can gety belongings??” I asked noticing we weren’t driving through the path that led to the mansion.“No” He replied perfunctorily and many questions flooded my mind.Where’s he taking us? Is it another surprise? Could he be…taking us to his parents??Hmm.He looks like someone who doesn’t have those.It didn’t take long and we arrived somewhere lit and at the same time…scarce.The airport???What are we doing at the airport?He stopped at a particular spot and came down from the car. I remained stiff unable to understa
.................Kira's pov..................I walked into my bedroom to see a red glittering bag on the bed.Whoa...I moved closer to it and got hold of the bag. I looked into it and got hold of the dress in it.....I brought it out and stared at it feeling surprised and awefilled....It's a neat evening dress that swept the floor and I admired the diamond stpnez stuck to it making a lovely pattern.Oh my!There was alsoba black box in the bag. I opened it slowly to get welcomed by a bright blinding light from the gold necklace placed beside some earrings.I was astonished to see such expensive pieces of jewel right before me.I twirled and fell back on the bed.I can't wait for tonight...That's for sure!....Mr Adam and I stepped into the car before he drove off to wherever was the venue of our date.He turned on a spirit lifting song by the American artist, John Legend.It was one of his best songs - All of me. The lyrics were so wonderfully appealing and I began to blush over s
