I quickly rushed up the stairs into the church only to be greeted by.
"You may now kiss the bride" the priest says.He leaned down and places a kiss on her lips without any care of the world around them.Seriously, I was supposed to be the bride's maid but they went ahead and held the wedding without me.I agree I was a tab bit late, ok, a lot but I ain't to blame you see.First of all, they had to fix the wedding while I was out of town and then they went ahead and gave me the wrong venue which was all the way across town.Not to talk that our car crashed in the middle of nowhere and it took us forever to repair.Oh hey! Sorry for bleeding your ears like that.I am Zephrine ( Heaven papier vierge) and the girl standing there on the alter, well, she's my sister, my twin to be precise Zephrine (Nevaeh papier vierge).You might be wondering how the two of us have the same. Well, that's how it has always been and always will be Let me tell you a little secret though, we are living this life as the same person you see, so technically, it's also my wedding somehow today.I quickly slid into the back seat so as to go unnoticed.They still seem to be stuck in their kiss till now.Can't they just get over it already.I adjusted myself, trying to get a better view of the groom but all I can see is his raven colored hair and his body covered in a six pieces tuxedo.He also stood tall before my sister, he's probably a foot taller than her.Not that we are that tall to begin with.She has sent me a picture of him last week but I didn't bother to look at it as I was busy with the entrance examinations.The two had just met ten days ago and in that short span of time, they fell in love and he proposed and she foolishly said yes and that too without even informing me.But they had organised the best wedding held in this small town of ours so far. He must be rich then, that's for sure.What's the name of the groom again, oh yes! There it was, Zephrine weds AbramoSuch an odd name. I don't think he is from part t this country though.I took a deep breath, trying to concentrate on what's happening."Now, everything is over, may the both of you stay blessed" the priest announces.With that, everyone took off from their seats and starts applauding.People have blocked my view so I couldn't see what's happening at the front.I got up too, applauding. But mine was different. Mine hold a lot of emotions.The happy ones, the sad ones and the list keeps going on and on.I just can't believe that she's getting married today.It's still so sudden to me.I start walking over to the front, making my way through the crowd that have now gathered around the couple."One, two, three" someone shouts and then her flower bouquet was thrown up in the air.Someone got a hold of it and they started cheering again.I looked a bit further and then I saw that it was Baia, our friend, that caught it."That was supposed to be mine" I mumbled.I tried to go further into the crowd but I was pulled out."Hey, let go of me, I'm not..."I was cut short when I turned to see my mother, our mother."So now you have decided to show up, why were you late?" she asks.Really?.Now we are standing at the far end of the church, far away from the cheering crowd."You should have told me that you have changed the venue" I complained."The new venue was sent to you early this morning and you were supposed to be back yesterday, weren't you?" she asks."Oh! About that, my phone was switched off since yesterday, no lights and I didn't get to finish the exams until late" I say.She stood there, staring at me. She then pulled me into a hug."I'm glad you are finally back, I missed you so much" she says."Me too, Mom" I whisper.She quickly pulls away from me."Now there's no time to waste, quickly rush off to the car, the reception is going to start soon" she says.I nodded and rushed off.Mom has dressed in a turquoise blue gown which fitted her body figure just well. It's the theme for the wedding.One would never guessed that she is 48. With her beautiful, elegant posture. She stood 5'9", a little bit taller than us, even though age and hardwork has made her look a little shorter. She has a nice, round Amber eyes and a ,heart shaped face. Her chocolate shaded hair, which stood at her waist length, made her look more graceful.Finally, I reached out and rushed to the car that I saw the bride go in not long ago."Excuse me, please" I say to the people surrounding the car.Everybody turned to look at me."Didn't you just...""Forget it, just get in already" another person says.The first person who spoke was my school best friend, Gaia and she doesn't know that I have a twin.I bet she even thinks I'm the one getting married today.In fact, not everyone knows about that but that's a story to be told another time."Sister, you finally made it" she said with a wide smile on her face.If I didn't know better, I'd have said that they have changed my sister to an elegant and radiant angel."Why were you late though, I waited for you?" She asks.I gave her the you know why look."Anyways, I'm so happy today sister, really happy" she says.She lifts up her hand and showed me the now beautiful ring resting on her finger."Isn't it beautiful?" she asks.I just sat there, mouth agape.I've never seen something so flash
We both walk into the room together, well, technically, I got I first and then she followed me."Oh my goodness! I can't believe it, it's true" Gaia gasps as soon as we walked in.She walks over to my sister."Zeph, I can't believe you never told me you were twins, I mean" she looked from both me and my sister.My sister just gave her a look of confusion."Over here" I say."Oh sorry" she apologizes to my sister and walks over to me."No worries, we get that alot" my sister says, smiling at her."For a minute there, I heard you were getting married and you didn't bother inviting me, I was like, this bitch got some nerve but now it's all cleared up" Gaia says.She is my best friend from school. Yeah, school. That was the main reason I didn't tell her about our existence.The girl stood so elegant in her mini dress and a crop top. She didn't look like someone who was ready for a wedding.She stood 5'3" with her sexy, to die for body. She also has a ring nose. Yes, a ring nose. She is th
"What are you talking about?" she asks, confused.Well, that's not the time to be confused."What were the conditions that's Abramo's mother set for you before the wedding?" I asked again.I feel like I am filling over with rage now, all over.She was silent for a while and then I looked over at Nevaeh but she just looked away."Will one of you please tell me what's going on, you guys have me all worried sick" I saw again.But they were not ready to speak."Look, I swear of you don't start speaking, I will throw a tantrum that each and every one of the guest out there will have to be present here and then maybe you might be inclined to speak then" I threaten.Well, I'm just bluffing but if, well let's not just get to that."Alright, alright, I'll tell you" mom speaks up.See, always works all the time."You might want to sit down for this one" she says.I nodded and this as she told me and then she sat down besides me."Look dear, I want you to know that making that decision wasn't ea
Well, I just stood there, unable to move my feet.It's like I'm stuck in a time Warp or something.What have these two went ahead and did this time around?.Have they realized that they have sold the dignity of our family just to get their daughter married?.How could they do this and that too without informing me."Heaven" our mother calls out my name, cutting me off from my time frenzy.She only calls us by our real name when she needs to talk business.She walks over to me and places her hand on my shoulder. That act of hers seems to have brought back the activities my muscles and skeleton are supposed to do.I pushed her hand away and head out the door."What are you going to do now?" she asks.Isn't it obvious what I'm gonna do."I'm going to call of this wedding" I still decided to answer her.I turn around and start heading back to the hall but someone pulled me back into the room.I turned around in anger only to see that it's Nevaeh who did so."Please, you can't call of this
Our flight landed in Paris at about seven P.M. in the evening and everyone was pretty tired.The conversation was cut short and I'm sure they'll be no next time to continue but what they said to me kept on pondering in my mind.What do I need in life?.What is my dream?.To be precise, I don't know because I have never thought that I day like this would come so soon.But they are right though, I should start thinking about my future too.There were three limousine parked outside for us.What's with these people and limousine, they seem to be obsessed with the car.More than half of our family members and neighbors have decided to follow, even Gaia and Baia.They kept on saying it's for farewell but I know better.So, here we are, along with some of the groom's family and no idea where we are headed to.I'm not sure the cars will even contain us."This car in the front, is for the bride and her mother and her friends" one woman announces.Seriously, her friends?.What about her sister?
I woke up, feeling all refreshed.It's been a long time, ok, I've never slept in a bed as comfortable as this one ever in my life, I mean, it's so comfy.Ok, so let's go back to when we arrived here yesterday.Well, not much happened actually as it was a little bit dark but still, Gaia still tried to take some selfies with every couch in the living room.There are actually three sets of couch in that living room and each, having it's own unique style and and decorations.I can't even imagine how big this place must be if just the living room is housing such big and surely expensive couches.I mean, I was even afraid to sit on one of them so I won't stain then with my poverty.Ok, let's get back to what happened yesterday, yeah.After about thirty minutes or so, the rest of our family and friends arrived.They were all in awe when they saw the place, utterly awed.None of us has actually seen a place this beautiful in our lives.They all kept praising Neveah fir landing such a jackpot
I suddenly felt conscious of myself in that place.What if they are all watching us. Worst, spying on us.I too also felt silly for thinking that because come to think of it, we are not some important figures to be spied on.But thinking back to all those conditions that the groom's family had to lay on mine,I felt that it might be a possibility.But what would be their purpose of doing so, my little brain could not comprehend.So, I decided to just shun the suspicion out as they are family now of some sort."Come on, get in" Gaia calls on to me once again.I looked all over again and still see the statue like humans and all with a gun."Nah, I think I'll pass" I say and turn and walk right back into the house.There's no way I'm stripping off in front of those loonies and risk them checking me out.Not that I have the most gorgeous body anyways but it's still mine, isn't it?.I decided to just sit on the couch once again and get some rest.I was afraid that if I go back into the room
Finally now the time of the party has neared and I will be attending, yes, that's for sure.I am not going to allow her to stress herself again. That's the least I could do for her since she has insisted that I live with mother, instead of her.Well, that brings me back to the conversation we had earlier.After she suddenly declared that my dream being fulfilled is now her biggest dream, I was shocked. She has put me in a tight position by saying that and it's not a thing that I still want to think about either, at least until everything about this wedding is over and all the adrenaline in my head is piped down.So, I did what I do best whenever I don't want to argue with someone, I changed the topic, period.I did that by showing her the necklace that her mother inlaw's friend has gotten for her. She was really mesmerized by the design as well and I mean, who wouldn't.I also mentioned the party to her and could you believe that she tried to tell me that she would be going.I was qui
Zephrine (Heaven)Ever so slowly, I tiptoed into the mansion, hoping that I wouldn't catch anyone's attention in the process.I had to battle with my whole self before I managed to agree to come here.I had thought a million times about quitting once again, but I remembered our deal: I quit, and my sister dies. Maybe my whole family as well.What a twisted and cruel man he is.But then again, he gives me a million reasons to want to quit.I managed to reach the room where my clothes are kept.I have made sure to never address the room as mine because it isn't.And never will it be.I proceeded to pick out the clothes that I've been assigned now which is a white colored shirt and a black trouser.They look pretty decent than my previous ones, way decent in fact.But one look at the clothes, and I felt revolted by them.Anything that has to do with him makes me feel uncomfortable.Just then, my phone rang, and the alarm for gett
AxelI kept rolling around the bed for the nth time, as I could not get myself to get any rest.Ever since I made the mistake of silencing that girl using my lips, I have been deeply bothered.Now I realize I made a mistake by doing so.She had instantly become an addiction to me.I don't know how, but I crave for her at every moment since then.Ever since she turned and rushed off, it took me more than ten minutes to finally compose myself and leave the conference room.I decided to head back home with Alora afterwards, as I couldn't focus on any work.I was hoping to see her back at the mansion, but she was nowhere to be found.The maids informed me that she never returned and that made me feel a little bit disappointed.No woman has ever made me feel the way she does, and that infuriates me the most.I shouldn't want her, but with each passing second, my desire for her intensifies, and now that I have had a taste of her lips, I am going berserk.I sat up on the bed and decreased the
Zephrine (Heaven)I just stood there, frozen.What the hell am I seeing right now?"Hello there, little sis, Long time no see; didn't you miss your big brother?" he says.I sure as hell do not miss him, and why would I ever miss a monster like him?"Mom, can we talk in private?" I said, matching away to my room.I stood there, pacing up and down like some sick person, but hell, I am mad.Mom walked into the room, and then he followed behind."Didn't you hear when I said the word private?" I asked him, standing as tall as I could, even though I knew I could never reach his 6'1" figure."Take a chill pill, sis. I'm just checking out the new house. Nevaeh really did outdo herself for marrying into a rich family. Now that we are finally leaving the life, I always knew that bitch got it in her," he says."First of all, don't you dare call my sister a bitch even in your wildest dreams, and secondly, this room is out of bounds for you," I warned him.In fact, the whole house is out of bounds
Zephrine"Hey, miss, what the hell are you doing here?" The man screamed out.I turned around to see if he was just a guard.Seriously, did he have to hire people that were just like him?Rude and condescending.Alora hid behind me, scared of those dimwit screams, I'm sure.But I ain't someone to mess with as well."I am here to see the boss, your boss, so direct me where he is," I said, lifting up my chin to look more composed.The man just gave me a one-off look once again."Listen, girl, I'm going to have to ask you to leave immediately, or else I'll call the police on you," he says.So now I've turned to a girl from Miss."Why don't you call them here as quickly as possible? I bet you would regret it more than I would." I still stood my ground."I'll show you who the boss is around here," he said as he started to dial in on his Wilkie talkie thingie."Listen, Zeph, I think we should just go. I would see Pappi when he comes back home. I'm scared of the cops," Alora whispers while ho
Zephrine"Come, Alora, get ready quick; your driver is here to pick you up," I say.Her driver has been here for almost thirty minutes, and she still isn't ready for school yet.I had to soak myself all over in order to make her take her bath, and then she went straight to bed after she got me completely drenched."No!" She yells.I take a deep breath.She really is getting under my nerves as of now.Seriously! How could a child be so stubborn?But no surprises where she got it, if you ask me.For a moment, I even decided to just leave her be, but then again, she is just a child, and she shouldn't be allowed to stray off just like that, and plus, education is really important."Now tell me, why don't you want to go to school today?" I ask, sitting close to her on the bed, not caring that I am drenched and that I would most definitely soak the bed, but that isn't my concern right now.She gets up and looks at me with a pout."Pappi promised he would have dinner with me yesterday, but h
AxelThis early morning, I got up with a great news.One of my greatest nemesis in town have been finally brought to my feet.The croc gang leader has really given me such a hard time for it has been almost a month that I have been in search for him.I walk into the dark room and clapped my hand making the lights to switch on.It is a huge room almost the size of a football field and the height of the walls is twenty feet.This is the torture chamber in my mansion.Whoever gets in here, never gets out alive and if the would be lucky enough to, then they would never be sane again in life.The walls have been painted crimson red, just like the color of blood, my second favorite after black. This is to show whoever gets in here would face his end.The wall have been covered with all types of torture items that I have lost the count of but sure have used all.Though these days, I let my men do the torturing while I sit back and enjoy the view.Right at the middle of the room is a huge swi
Zephrine (Heaven)I got out of the car, adjusting my glasses.I have just dropped off little Alora off to her school and now, I am back.And the good news is that, I won't be doing anything again till I am going to take her back and then we'll play for the rest of the day.Truth be told, I have started loving this job since the past ten days that I have been officially assigned as the girl's nanny.I could actually count just how much I saw him since the past few days and I am sure it wasn't more than three to four times.Good riddance if you ask me because I feel more at ease now. Even though I gave him advise to try and be close to his daughter which obviously he didn't take but I couldn't care less anymore. She is his daughter after all and all I am doing is filling up for the void that he couldn't.I walk inside the house while trying to pack my hair into a bun. But then suddenly, I hit on something hard and I fell back on my butt."What the..." I almost cursed but when I looked
Zephrine (Heaven)"I want you to be Alora's nanny from today onwards" he says.What! Did I hear him right?.Well, I don't think I did.Maybe I am just thinking it?.Maybe it's just some hallucination?."You said what now?" I ask, still not sure I heard him right.He didn't answer me as usual.Well, maybe I maybe I must have heard him wrong.I was ready to turn and leave when he finally gets up.I'm sure he is leaving the dining room. Well, let me just wait for him to pass then.He starts walking over to the door, which I was standing next to but at the last moment, he walks over to me and stood before me, way close to me that he is invading my personal space.With a huge body like his, that a foot away seems so close.I moved away from him and created more space between us. I wanted to add more but then, I hit the wall.I prayed that he wouldn't move an inch closer.And for the first time, he didn't."Listen here miss papier veirge, I do not like repeating myself, but I'll say it again
AxelIt was early in the morning and I wake up, feeling all beat up.I had drunk almost ten glasses of alcohol yesterday.I was so mad at that girl. She really does have some nerves.I was really hoping that yesterday, she would finally give up and fall to her knees and apologize.I made sure to make her do all the things that she despised but in the end, she did the entire opposite of what I expected of her.Maybe she is more of a hard core than I thought.Gosh! Why can't she just give up already and fall to her knees and bed for mercy and maybe, then maybe I can offer her one.I have dealt with so many criminals in my life. I have dealt with so countless hard cores in my life.Even the most ruthless of them all cowers before me but now, now, I am being tested my a mere toy. A woman.Why am I letting her affect me this much?.I think I should do to her what I do to all hard cores that dare disobey me.No! I don't think I am ready to kill her yet. Hell no.Despite me wanting to see h
