“You did what?” Nicole screamed excitedly, clapping her hands together.

Mayeli glared at her best friend. “Can you keep it down?” Mayeli asked in a hushed tone.

“Sorry”, Nicole mumbled, sipping her fruit juice.

They were in Mayeli's office, and Mayeli was just telling Nicole about last night with Killian. Thankfully, Kreed was having lunch with the rest of the company lawyers so the conversation wasn't uncomfortable.

“I confessed my feelings to him, and now I feel like an idiot. How can I face him again?” Mayeli lamented to her best friend.

“What did he say?” Nicole asked, still sipping her juice.

Nicole was dressed in a sleeveless cream jumpsuit that hugged her perfect curves and revealed a little too much cleavage. On her legs, which were currently placed on Mayeli's office desk was a pair of black Zara heels, and her black hair was tied back, showing off her cute face.

“He said he doesn't want a relationship”.

“Did he now?” Nicole asked, adjusting on Mayeli's office chair. The look

  • The Chemistry   Chapter Fifty-Nine: The truth

    Killian stared at Nixen with a perplexed expression.They were in Killian's house having dinner. Tyse and Truce were away on a business trip, so they were alone.“Why did you do it, Nixen?” Killian repeated, studying Nixen.Nixen was silent for a while, his eyes concentrated on the glass of Chateau Margaux in his hands.“Nixen!” Killian called angrily.“Because I wanted her for myself and longed for her so much, but her heart was set on only you”, Nixen replied quietly.“What do you mean?”“You know what I mean, brother”.“We broke up, Zed, she broke up with me two weeks ago”. Nixen's eyes were still focused on the wine in his hands, but his voice was tear-filled.“How has your breakup got to do with me?”“Don't play me for a fool, Killian. What was Mayeli doing in your fucken bed?”Killian gulped. Mayeli had told Nixen? What was her plan? He had been wanting to tell his brother for a while now, but he had not dared to.“I'm sorry, Nixen, I, it's just, I met her two years ago at the M

  • The Chemistry   Chapter Sixty: What do you mean?

    Mayeli tossed a couple of Snickers chocolate bars into her shopping cart. Her eyes strayed to the pregnancy test strip on the shelf ahead of her, and she quickly looked away, trying her best to steady her racing heartbeat.It had been almost two weeks since she had laid with Killian, two weeks since she had broken up with Nixen, and a week since she realized her flow was late.She had been pushing away the dreadful thought that she was with a child. It scared the hell out of her. He had spilt inside her the last time they made love, and she had been so careless to forget to take a pill afterwards. What had she been thinking?She was certain Killian was the father of her child since she had never slept with Nixen and Killian was the only man she had been intimate with in years.Mayeli bit on her perfectly manicured nails as she considered whether or not to pick up a pregnancy test strip. She had been putting off that decision for a while now, out of fear of the unknown. What if it came

    Mayeli ignored Killian and ran back to the bathroom, loud sobs escaping from their chest as locked the door. She ignored the loud banging on the door, her head throbbing.“Mayeli please can we talk?” Killian's deep, velvet voice asked.“Go away!” Mayeli cried.“How can I?” Killian's voice was soft, and pleading.Mayeli sighed. He was doing it again–pulling at her heart strings. Now he cared about her. He had ignored her and barely talked to her for the past two weeks, now he was acting like he cared.He had barged into her house not because he missed her, or he cared about her, but because he was angry. “Mayeli, please come out, let's talk about this”. Killian knocked on the door again.“There's nothing to talk about”.“Mayeli, baby please”.Mayeli ran her hands through her blonde hair. Killian made her feel crazy. She had never met anyone like him. He was honest, kind, and humble, and it was obvious he cared about her.It was obvious he cared about he since he tried to make her hap

  • The Chemistry   Chapter SixtyTwo: You wanted to go?

    Resolved?Mayeli rushed to Killian's side, screaming for her maid, Nina.Nina came rushing in. They helped Killian to the bed, and Mayeli quickly called her doctor while Nina went to fetch a bowl of water, since his body was blazing hot. From the look of things, he had a fever.Mayeli bit on her lips feeling very guilty. Had he been sick when he rushed to her house asking about the past? Perhaps, she should have told him the truth. He deserved to know, and it made no sense that she had kept it away from him. She had kept so many things from Killian, and it wasn't fair.It was better if she came clean with him. Whatever Nixen had told him must have made him very angry and she had to clarify things.Nina opened the door and came running in with the water and towel. Mayeli took it from her and proceeded to remove Killian's shirt.She pushed his shirt slowly over his belly and froze when her hands grazed his hot skin, and her eyes came in contact with his six packs.“Why did he have to b

  • The Chemistry   Chapter Sixty-Three: What is your question?”

    Mayeli glanced over at her bed again, and let out an angry sigh. She stared at her Rolex wall clock, it was 8 pm, and Killian was still talking to Bryelle instead of being on his way home. They had been talking for almost an hour about whatever it was. Mayeli couldn't understand.She was slightly jealous and angry that she had been left out. She dabbed her head with her hands. It was probably the pregnancy that was making her emotional. The dump pregnancy!She glared at Killian as he whispered in their daughter's ear, making her laugh. Mayeli wondered how they had grown so close without trying. Bryelle and Killian. Perhaps blood was indeed thicker than water.“You should get going, it's getting quite late”, Mayeli said to Killian.Killian threw Mayeli a glance, his expression showing irritation like she had interrupted something very important.“I'm still talking with my little friend over here. Maybe I might stay, and see the doctor, and catch a little rest too. I feel exhausted”, Ki

    Killian stared at Mayeli as he waited for her to say the words. To be honest, he had been very certain that it was his child, and now he wasn't anymore. It enraged him to think that Mayeli could have had sex with another man other than him, yet he knew he had no right to be angry. He is, after all, the stumbling block in their relationship.Killian's eyes fell on Mayeli's perfectly rounded breast, highlighted by the thin blue lingerie she was wearing, and his groins hardened. Curse his libido. He quickly looked away. It was not the time for desires, there were many things to talk about.“The child is yours”, Mayeli said after a few minutes of contemplation. She looked delicately beautiful without her makeup on, and somewhat vulnerable. She was perfect in every way, just the way he wanted.“I thought as much”.“You shouldn't be so certain, Zed”.“Why? You won't meet other men, would you?”“I'm not your wife, neither am I your girlfriend, so I have no obligation to be faithful to you”, M

    “Get that thing away from me”, Killian said through his teeth, glaring at Tyse and the small white Teddy in his hands.Tyse gave him a pouty face. “You're hurting his feelings, Killian”, he said. By his feelings, Tyse meant the teddy's feelings. Trust Tyse to make everything a joke. He was a very jovial person.But Killian wasn't feeling very jovial at the moment. They had interrupted his reunion with Mayeli when she had been fucken dressed that way. Sometimes he hated his friends.Killian's eyes drifted to the edge of the bed, and they caught Mayeli's pink furry slippers. Just as he thought of standing up and reaching for it, Truce beat him to it, and picked them up.“What are these doing here?” Truce asked, observing the slippers.Truce had been setting out the food they had brought for him. How in the fucken world had the slippers suddenly caught his attention?“They're Bryelle's, she was here a few minutes ago”, Killian lied feebly.“Hmm”, Truce said, sharing a mischievous look wi

    Killian, meet Mayeli, and Mayeli, this Killian”, Raina, Killian's mother said to a six-year-old Killian and a three-year-old Mayeli.“Nice to meet you, Zed”, Mayeli said, adjusting her long, full blonde hair. She was very pretty, Killian noticed, but she was also shy, or so he thought since she barely looked at him.“Same here, Mayeli”, Killian said.“I'd leave you both now”, Raina said, walking away.“Is Mayeli your only name?” Killian asked.Mayeli shook her head. “My dad sometimes calls me Kaeli. It's my middle name”.“Kaeli”. Killian tested the name on his lips. “I love it, I'll call you Kaeli instead of Mayeli”.She looked at him with an amused smile that revealed her deep dimples. “Okay”.“I love your dimples. You're so pretty”.Mayeli's smile deepened, along with her dimples. “Thank you”.“Do you have a boyfriend?” Killian asked.Mayeli's green eyes twinkled. “No”.“Good”.“Have you found a boyfriend, Mayeli?” Shaila, Mayeli's elder sister said, running to meet them.Mayeli tur

    Kreed laughed and stood up. He picked up the baseball bat he had been holding and threw it to Tyse.“Beat Killian to death with it, and I’d let you live. You did nothing to offend me, did you?”Mayeli’s eyes widened.“What?” Tyse asked.“You know it’s either you or him, right? Or mostly both. So why don’t you save yourself?”Mayeli thought of what to do to buy time. Of course, no one was coming to save them, since Kreed said he had taken care of the police, but she had no other option. She couldn’t watch what was about to happen. She’d rather die first.“Kreed, when did you become this evil? There’s still a way out of this, you don’t have to commit more murders.”Kreed laughed for a long time, and when he stopped, he faced Mayeli. “The day your father burnt down my family, he created an unrepentant monster. I only trained the monster. First I worked with the CIA, then with the FBI, then as a special intelligence security agent, and when I was convinced I had learnt everything I wanted

    Mayeli and Killian turned to see Kreed standing a few feet from them. He was wearing the same outfit he had been wearing this morning before she had left him. Black turtle-neck top, black trousers, black boots and a dark brown long coat.But this time there was something different. He was wearing black gloves. But that wasn’t it. What was he doing here? How did he know she was here? She told no one.Kreed took a step forward, and Killian immediately reached for his pocket.Kreed was faster. “Let me borrow your words. I won’t dare if I were in your shoes because I’ll shoot you down without hesitation. Now rid yourself of your weapons and don’t try to play smart.”Killian did as he was told.Mayeli couldn’t believe her ears. This was Kreed, right? Or did he have a twin? Or perhaps was this a replica of him? Or cloning? She didn’t understand. Why was Kreed pointing a gun at them?“Kreed. What’s happening? I don’t understand.” But Mayeli was beginning to understand. She recognized the loo

    “You should drive faster!” Killian barked at Tyse.“At this rate, we’d probably die in an accident before we get to her,” Truce screamed.Killian turned to him. “Do you deserve to live?”Truce shook his head. “No. Tyse, drive faster!”He was still mad at his friends for abandoning Mayeli when he was away for the stupid reasons they gave. He had trusted them to take care of her while he was away, but they had done just the opposite. They had begged and apologized severally, but he wasn’t forgiving them yet. He’d make them work for their forgiveness, and so far, they’ve been doing just that.“Maybe you should take the wheel!” Tyse barked at Truce. “I’ll drive faster, Killian,” he replied, Killian with a smile.“If that bitch, Shaila so much as touch my woman, I won’t hesitate to strangle her with my hands”, Killian said through his teeth.How could he have missed the signs?He had known Shaila wasn’t the sister she pretended to be, and he had known she was still obsessed, but he didn’t

    “I don’t understand,” Mayeli said, carefully. Shaila was getting drunk, and Mayeli feared what she would do to her. At the moment, she wasn’t the woman Mayeli had known all her life, she was a wounded animal seeking blood.“I met Killian in our second grade. He was two levels higher than me, so we never really talked. Everyone loved him, everyone wanted him, and I wanted him more than any of them. And one day, I went home after school and he was with his parents in our house. Father had introduced them as his friends and ours, and had told us they were going to have dinner with us.I still remembered how overjoyed I had been that day. I had asked my maid, Nisha, to make me the prettiest little girl ever, and during dinner, I did everything to get Killian’s attention, but he didn’t care. He didn’t even notice my hair or dress or anything, but I didn’t give up. After dinner, he talked to me, he told me my dress was pretty and he liked my tiara. I was so overjoyed that I couldn’t sleep t

    Mayeli typed Killian’s office floor number on the elevator keypad, 67.She could hardly wait as the box took her upwards. She hadn't met Killian since that day at the mall and she couldn't wait to see him. Her heart was racing already, and she could feel a hunger in her lower belly, a hunger he had awakened.The elevator stopped and the doors slid open. Mayeli stepped out eagerly, heading for the last building on the floor. When she reached, she rang Killian’s office doorbell. No one answered. She rang it again, but nothing. Thankfully, she knew the key pass.“I'm coming in,” she said, and pushed the door open. Surprisingly, the office was empty.The office was just the way Mayeli remembered, the same. White high walls, one glass wall showing off the breathtaking view of the City of London, a large oak table and a chair behind it and two in front. A mini-parlour of four black cushions and a white table, and lastly a glass shelf holding Killian's books, magazines, trophies, and aw

    Mayeli braided the last strand of her sister’s hair slowly, listening to Bryelle’s tale of her latest BTS crush, Jungkook, and laughing. Her daughter was crushing on celebrities already.“I have a shoot with V soon, he might not be your favourite, but you should come,” Shaila said.Bryelle shook her head. “I want just him, no one else.”Shaila laughed. “Suit yourself.” She turned to Mayeli. “Be fast would braids, babe, I need to be somewhere soon.”Shaila had been going out more frequently recently, and she never said where she was going, no matter how many times Mayeli asked. Mayeli decided to let her be. She would come around when she wanted to.The doorbell rang, and Bryelle went to get it. She returned a few minutes later.“Mom, it’s Kreed.” She walked past them into her room. Shaila turned to Mayeli with a stupid smile on her face. “Your husband is calling.”Mayeli frowned, tossing her hair behind her. “His not my husband, stop with the joke.”Shaila laughed. “I have somewhere t

    Killian covers the distance between him and Mayeli. She looked so flawless, so beauty more than he had remembered. Just a glimpse of her took his breath away, just a glimpse of her rose his hunger so intense that he hardly had control over it.He covered her slim waist with his arms and took in a breath of her.“Killian?” She called, her voice shocked. “Is this real? Am I hallucinating? How’s this even possible?”She started to check his body. “Are you real? Are you hurt or burnt?” Tears were already flowing down her pale cheeks again. “How’s this possible. Am I losing it?”Killian knew she had too many questions, but he couldn’t explain, not yet. He was here to warn her and he didn’t have much time.He turned her to face him and almost regretted it when his eyes fell on her fleshy, exposed, full and ready for him. He shook his head; just being near her drove him crazy, and it had been so long. He had watched from a distance and longed for her, but it wasn’t yet time. He had to think

    “You should be careful,” Kreed said, helping Mayeli out of the car.Mayeli chuckled. “I’m careful as I am. You’re the unnecessarily worried one.”He had been fusing over her for months now since she got out of bed. She was fine now, but he won’t leave her. He was always by her side, and sometimes she wondered when he had time for himself.Bryelle came to Mayeli’s side. She pecked her. “I’ll see you later Mom, my friends are waiting.” She ran off before Mayeli could say a word.They were meant to eat dinner together after shopping for clothes, but she had come up with excuses that she had to meet up with her friends.“She’s growing up so fast,” Kreed said, laughing.Mayeli turned to him. Today was his girlfriend’s birthday, but he had been with her all day. “Aren’t you going to meet Sonia?”The smile faded from Kreed’s handsome face. “We met before I came by this morning.”Mayeli sighed. She knew Kreed had feelings for her, but she had no way to confront them. She wasn’t interested in

    Mayeli slowly opened her heavy eyelids and tried to understand her environment. The smell of anthesptic filled her nostrils and her lungs burned. Her throbbed and her body felt as stiff as a log of wood.She tried turning, but her body had a mind of its own. The bright light streaming from the windows blinded her weak vision. She recognized the room after a while, it was her room, but why was she strapped to a bed, and why were there several equipment attached to her body?She couldn’t move or think; her whole body throbbed.The door opened and a familiar face walked in. She looked older, though. Mayeli tried to remember and slowly, her memory returned.Bryelle, her daughter.She tried to call her name, but her voice came out as a low whisper; even that effort was painful. Bryelle rushed to her side. She was wearing a short black skirt and a pink jacket. Her was packed in a high bun. She looked different, dazzling, and all grown up, not the little girl Mayeli had known.“Mom, you’re
