Ciara stayed aloof in a corner in the cell, not bothering anyone. She knew how the inmates could be, so she tried as much as possible to avoid their troubles, but one thing with being there is that you do not need to avoid their troubles before they find yours.

Two inmates walked menacingly over to Ciara.

They were both burly like men and it was very obvious that they were bullies. Ciara remembers them from the last time she was in here, but for the life of her, she could not tell what their names were anymore. Actually, when she left prison, she did a mental wiping off of the inmates, because she desperately wanted to be away from that life.

“Ciara Summers,” one of them mocked.

Ciara looked down at her hands and feet in her curled up position, and she realized that they were shaking. Ciara was scared out of her mind already, and even if it was just one of them, she still would not have been able to face them.

“You will look up when we call you,” the other one grabbed Ciara by her hai

    Linda arrived at the Fury’s mansion fully dressed with high heels, makeup and an expensive outfit. She ensured that she dressed her best, because she believed that the old lady would be impressed by Linda’s fashion sense and class. Linda knew and understood the minds of wealthy people and how they worked, and she knew that this would be one of the easiest ways to get through to her.Linda wasn’t a fan of the older people. In fact, they made her skin crawl, but she would do anything to win Samuel’s mother’s heart, because once the woman is able to declare her love and acceptance for Linda, Samuel would have no choice than to marry her finally, because somewhere inside Linda’s heart, she just had the feeling that something could happen that would make Samuel not marry her eventually. Granted, they did have a hold on him, but even that is not a strong hold, because everything might go wrong, and Linda could not afford it to.Linda was let into the mansion after she told their security th

    Samuel could not move any faster, and as soon as they stepped into the hospital, he took hold of Ciara’s hands. According to Mary, they must always appear married and in love. Newly wedded couple must not be perceived otherwise.“Welcome, Mr. Samuel,” the nurse said, but Samuel was hardly listening to her.“How is my mother?” Samuel asked as he barged into Mary’s room. She laid there almost lifeless, the beeping sounds of the machines placed on her filling the room. Samuel halted, his resolve breaking. Ciara also stood beside him as they stared at Mary together. She seemed dead already, and Ciara could feel the fear in Samuel. She had never seen him like that, and he seemed like a man too cruel and ruthless to have such compassion and affection.Samuel looked at his mother and his heart pounded heavily. He felt like his heart was about to drop to his stomach, and even though he already been told that she had just a month to live, he could not harbor the thought of losing her, especia

    “What baby were you talking about in your sleep?” Samuel demanded.Ciara did not see that coming. She hadn’t even thought that she had said anything when she was battling with the bad dream. It had felt so real and true that it scared the life out of her, and for the fact that Samuel did not ask her any questions after he woke her up made her believe that she had dreamt silently. Now she understood why he had been giving her some weird and suspicious looks since then.“Answer me!” Samuel tried not to scream. They were still in Aunt Mary’s ward, and he wouldn’t want to wake her up. Samuel moved closer to her in a menacing manner again, making Ciara shiver a little. She was still trying to get a hold of herself, as everything that is happening seems to be happening really fast and she was yet to get a grip of herself. “You like to evade questions, don’t you?” Samuel said gruffly. He was really getting pissed off, and Ciara doubted that he would be able to hold it in any longer than nec

    Ruby and Linda both stood in their living room, unable to sit down with ease. Everything seems to be escalating beyond their control.“I was just a step away from entering her ward when the doctor announced the arrival of Samuel and that wretch,” Linda sulked. The whole scene kept playing in her head, making her angrier. “I hated the fact that she had to be referred to as Samuel’s wife, and not me.”“You have to be patient, Linda.” Ruby tried to calm Linda down even though, last thing she was experiencing herself was calmness.“But what are we to do? All our plans seem to be falling in our faces,” Linda whined.She wasn’t lying, and Ruby agreed with her. “Ciara seems to be getting away with everything, and we cannot let that happen,” she said and turned to Linda. “Are you sure none of them saw you?” She asked.“I made sure of that. You ought to trust me on things like these by now,” Linda said. She did not like that her skills of maneuvering her way through situations are being questi

    On the ride back to the luxury apartment, the car was eerily quiet. Samuel said nothing to Ciara, and neither did Ciara, and in order to distract herself from feeling uncomfortable, especially with Samuel’s stone-cold face, she decided to look outside the window instead.It was safer to look through the walls of Mexico City and its people walking about freely and going about what they wanted to do, which was contrary to the life that Ciara was trapped in than to continue to see Samuel’s face and live in the fear that he might reach out and strangle her any moment. Ciara was grateful that after Samuel’s conversation with Aunt Mary, he had not bothered to confront her like he would usually do. Ciara had been skeptical about returning to the ward after what she had heard, so she had feigned having a light headache, which had prompted Aunt Mary to urge Samuel to take Ciara home.Ciara had hoped that Samuel would let her drive back to the apartment alone, since she was practically staying

    “What agency did you say sent Joel?” Ciara asked Aunt Quinton later after Samuel had left. Luckily for her, he did not stay for as long as five minutes after he was introduced to the new gardener and Ciara got to understand that he followed her to the luxury apartment just so that he could see the new employee. Ciara was very relieved, because Samuel did not stick around to try to force an explanation out of her. Ciara had genuinely hope that she would take a long nap in the soft bed, but something about the young man just kept gnawing at her gut, and she found herself restive and unsafe.The moment she set eyes on him, she had that shivering feeling that she had when she visited Samuel at his penthouse and someone followed her. “Maux Cleaning Services,” Aunt Quinton responded. “They are the best cleaning service in Mexico City,” she further stressed, but still Ciara was not bought.“When did you request for a gardener?” Ciara questioned.“Master Samuel actually did, not me,” she re

    Ciara knew immediately that she needed to do something.“We have an impostor in the house,” Aunt Quinton said with so much fear and trepidation that she almost passed it on to Ciara. Ciara knew there was something off about the man, but she had hoped that somehow someway, her intuitions would be wrong. Now, she would not even be able to get that so much desired nap until she is able to solve the problem at hand.“Where is he now?” Ciara asked. Just then, they heard the sound of the mowing machine.Ciara and Aunt Quinton hurried to the window and there he was, mowing the lawn. Aunt Quinton gasped in shock. Accepting the situation for what it was seemed really difficult for her. “So where is the real Joel?” she asked.“I have no idea, Aunt Quinton, but we have a huge problem in our hands, and we need to sort it out before it blows out of proportion,” Ciara said.Even though she said “we”, she was actually referring to herself. Now that she knew that the man they have mowing their lawn

    Ciara was grateful that instead of screaming, Aunt Quinton had been sensible enough to cover her mouth with her hands.Ciara was scared to her bones, especially now that the man was no longer mowing the lawn. She has no idea if he even heard what they have been saying, because Ciara’s window had been open while they watched him and even talked. Even though they were upstairs and he was on the ground floor, Ciara could not be certain. There was no way to be sure, because looking at the lawn now, Ciara realized that he wasn’t even done mowing it.Whether they liked it or not, they were in grave danger.“Hello? Mrs. Fury, are you there?” The representative asked.Ciara had been rendered speechless when the representative broke the news and at the same time, her mind had been running around in thoughts.“Oh yes, I am here, and I heard you,” Ciara answered. She was honestly trying really hard, but panic and exhaustion were becoming evident even in her words.“We deeply apologize for this.

    Ciara heard a knock on the door and she went to open it without an iota of fear or dread; all her enemies have been put behind bars.Ciara got discharged from the hospital two days ago, and she was yet to make that call to Samuel Fury that she had wanted to make, because she was still dazed about the revelation.“The world is truly a small place,” Ciara had said to herself, breathlessly.Who would have thought that Samuel’s son would be birthed by the same doctor? Heck, who would have thought that the mysterious man that Ciara had spent that night with was Samuel Fury? Ciara trembled at the thought of telling Samuel that her son was his, because she fully believed the doctor even though she was yet to see Samuel’s left thigh, and that was primarily because they hadn’t been really intimate.Ciara almost passed out when she opened the door and found Samuel Fury standing before her. They stared deeply into each other’s eyes for a couple of minutes without saying anything, and Ciara could

    It had been several months now, and Ciara was glad that she hadn’t been found, because deep down, she knew that Samuel Fury would be looking all over the country for her. Her bump was big now, and the doctor she had begun seeing already told her that she would be due any moment from now. Ciara wanted Samuel to find her, desperately for that matter, but she knew that if she let Samuel find her without closing this chapter of her life, she would never be complete.Ciara was free now, and she knew this because she was lucky to be present at a coffee shop when Colt and Ruby’s court verdict was read. She wondered why Linda Luscious wasn’t also in the stand, but Ciara pushed that out of her mind.Her only goal and desire right now, before she had her baby, was to see her mother’s grave.“Coffee, as usual?” The coffee server asked Ciara.He was an elderly man who seemed to have seen better years, Ciara almost felt pity for the man, but then again, he seemed to be doing what he loved.“Yes,

    “Mr. and Mrs. Luscious, you are both under arrest,” the cops rounded up Ruby and Colt in their home a few days later.“We did nothing wrong!” Colt tried to play defensive, but it was already over for them.“Martin and Hayes have testified against you, Mr. Luscious,” one of the cops informed Ruby and Colt.“What about our daughter, Linda?” Ruby asked.“Mr. Samuel Fury decided not to charge her, but the both of you must answer for your grievous crimes,” the cop told them.Colt and Ruby hung their heads in shame and sadness as the cops handcuffed them and took them away.A month later, Samuel sat in the courtroom, waiting for the judge to pass her verdict on Colt and Ruby. They looked devastated, but Samuel was not moved. As he sat there, he felt relieved that he would be getting the justice he deserved, as well as Ciara Summers. Jess had tracked Hayes down when he was trying to run away, and had handed him over to the cops. A lot had happened since Ciara walked away and never returned,

  • The Contract Bride: Falling For Fury    What Truly Happened

    “It happened two years ago…” Linda began as her mind drifted back to that day years ago.Linda was involved with a perverted old man. This was all because of how reckless she had been living.“Why don't you show me some love toots?” The old man crossed the line, touching her in ways that were unacceptable.“Stop it...” She did her best to resist the man’s grip and the two engaged in a struggle. Eventually, Linda drove her stiletto heel into his skull. The man plopped to the floor completely lifeless.Linda’s heart pounded as she stared at the lifeless body, “He’s dead.” Linda covered her mouth after realising that she had taken the old man’s life.“Think Linda, now is not the time to panic.” She took a series of deep breaths to calm herself as she wiped off her fingerprints from the heel. “What do I do now?” After a while, Linda called her mother.“Mom...” Her voice was shaky.“What is it?” Her mother asked, a hint of worry was evident in her voice.Linda shared her current predica

    Ciara waited patiently for Rudge to show up in the location that he sent to her. She was not agitated. She was not afraid. She just wanted to be fully and completely free. When it would happen, she would no longer live her life in bondage, or under the mercy of anyone, but she would know what happened that exact day, and she would be completely free, because Ciara knew that she did not kill that man. Ciara was not even capable of murder, and what happened with Lori’s baby had been a huge mistake. Ciara hadn’t thought of it before now, but she was certain now that Linda and her parents framed her and caused her to spend time in prison for a crime that she did not commit. She wouldn’t be surprised, because several times, aside from the incident that happened on Linda’s twentieth birthday party, there had been other cases that Linda had lied on Ciara, and Ciara had taken the fall for Linda’s recklessness.The only problem was that Ciara did not know exactly what happened.Once Rudge tel

    Ciara was still shaken from the whole episode that happened at the cabin. She had been dazed for hours now, unable to react at all. Martin had meant to kill her. He would have driven the sharp knife into her stomach, and then, he would have killed not just her, but also her baby. Martin hadn’t called her to confess a thing to her. Instead, he had tricked her into coming just so that he could avenge the death of Lori and their baby.Suddenly, instinctively, abruptly, Ciara got out of her shock. She looked around frantically; she was back at the penthouse. Ciara jumped up as though the couch she sat on had caught fire.“How did I get back here?!” Ciara asked no one in particular, because she was alone in the living room. “Samuel?” She called out, but no response.She continued to turn around frantically until Jess arrived from the kitchen, carrying a glass of warm water.“Who are you and how did you get in here?” Ciara asked Jess as though she was about to launch an attack on her.“Don

    “Miss Luscious, this is not a risk I would advise you to take,” the doctor said to Linda.It was still morning, and Linda had left the house without her parent’s knowledge, but she knew that she had to do what needed to be done. Linda was still angry with her parents, especially with everything that was unfolding, and it was beginning to dawn on Linda the severity of the situation.“I have to do something,” Linda had said to herself the night before, “Because I cannot go down with my patients, because I wasn’t even there when they did most of what they did.”Linda had begun to make escape plans. For days now, she had been starving, although she usually sneaked into the kitchen, but it was usually almost futile, because she only met crumbs of canned food. Linda could not make coffee to save her life, because she had helps around the house for those things, but now that they were all gone, Linda could not recall the last time she had a proper meal.“I am too young to go down with my par

    Ciara entered the cabin, and she was met with an eerie silence that threw her off balance. At first, she thought Martin had tricked her into coming to the cabin, because it looked and felt oddly deserted. “Hello?” Ciara called out calmly, not wanting to be too loud so that Samuel who was outside would not get the wrong signal.It was late and quiet, which meant that any noise at all was liable to travel far. “Is anyone home?” Ciara asked, but she remained rooted in her spot.She could not bring herself to even check the other parts of the cabin to be sure that it was completely empty, because somehow, even though Ciara could not explain it, there was something dreadfully dangerous about the cabin. It did not feel like the cabin that hosted her some weeks ago.“Is anyone home?” Ciara called out again, but she was met with absolute silence.Then her shoulders dropped in disappointment; Martin had tricked her into coming here. When would this ever end? Why did it always feel like Ciara

    Jess slipped into the car beside Samuel, replacing Ciara, and Samuel jumped in fright.“Jeez, you scared me!” Samuel said after he was able to catch his breath.“What is the fear for? You have been in worse situations, Samuel Fury, so why are you jumpy?” Jess asked and looked at Samuel, and she became more shocked when she saw that Samuel was visibly shaking and sweating. “Damn, Samuel, are you about to faint?” Jess could not help but ask.Jess looked at Samuel, seeing him vulnerable and scared to his bones for the very first time since she had known him, and it dawned on her that Samuel was this way, because Theresa went to the cabin on her own, in danger. There was no other logical explanation to why Samuel was acting as though he was being faced with death.“Oh, I see,” Jess said with a grin.Samuel looked at her, confused. “When you grin like that, you are being mischievous, and now is honestly not the time for that,” Samuel said, angry and irritated. “Don’t you read the room?
