Amaira kept crying and shedding tears and honestly I felt really bad for her. Guilt kept gnawing at my stomach and I wished I could turn the situation around. I felt she is too meek and quiet to be suffering from my mishap.Karla and her clique would have been the perfect scapegoat in place of Amaira."You have to believe me, I swear it's not me," Amaira kept wailing and pleading her innocence and part of me felt like backing her up that she is truly innocent but what explanation would I give about how the laxative found itself under her bed?I can't obviously admit that I kept it there because not only will I miss my chance at being an escort, I'll also be in serious trouble. Who knows what they'll do to me if I'm caught."If it isn't you, then who is responsible?" Karla snapped at her and she wailed the more."Who would ever believe that you could do something like this to Kira? You are a snake Amaira," Nelly, one of Karla's friend's spat at her."She was probably hoping that she wi
I left the crying Amaira behind and headed for my room. I do feel guilty about what happened to her but I don't have any choice. I step into my room and dump my whole body on the bed. I couldn't get Amaira's crying face off my head,the poor girl doesn't deserve that but I never knew it was her room and also I know I shouldn't care about anyone here because I'm here on a mission not to get friendly with anyone here."Am soo sorry Amaira,"I muttered to myself as if she could hear me then I sigh heavily. I was soo lost in thought that I did not notice when Emma and Mira step into the room,not until Mira tapped me"Jeez you scared me," I flinched raising my guards up ready to attack only to find out it was Emma and Mira.I stood up and sat properly on the bed then Mira stood by the side of my bed while Emma stood in front glaring at me."What were you soo lost about thinking?' 'Mira asked."Nothing," I replied plainly."You were soo lost in thought mabel that you did not notice our p
“I...I am sorry…sir” I said to Grey, my voice trailing as I pretended to break free from his arms.“You need to watch where you are going you know,” he said to me, reluctant also to let go of me.“Yes I will…sir.” I replied him, my head bowing down to hide my growing excitement.The head maid quickly scolded me and urged me to behave myself and I apologized again, not meaning it once again. I had had endless dreams about him from last night and beyond, and finally setting eyes upon him now, I was excited both in mind and in body. Waves of vibrations ran across my body as I stood there looking at him, wishing more than anything to feel his touch once again right there. I was super excited that he had chosen me to be with him that day and I could not wait for the moment I had been waiting for all the while. I had thought of it constantly and seeing him say to the head maid to prepare me for him; it felt like a dream come true.The head maid gave me a rather nasty look as I pretended to
I kept looking into the mirror occasionally to admire myself. I must comment that I look so beautiful and couldn't help but crush on myself.I twirled for my mirror, imagining it to be Grey and I loved the way my gown turned, mopping the floor.The head maid kept glaring at me as she handed me the cloth, still upset that I had bumped into Grey and ventured into a place I ought not to be.How I got there, I can't explain. I only remember walking out on Emma and Mira after they accused me of being the one behind the laxative.I was angry not because they were lying, they were in fact telling the truth and if the head maid heard of it, I should as well kiss my escort with Grey this night goodbye. I was angry because they saw me when they shouldn't have and could also compromise my mission.I was too angry and didn't know when I bumped into Grey. I honestly do not regret it and I'm somewhat grateful to both Emma and Mira for making me mad to stomp out and bump into Grey. They made my work
My dress was ruined by her tears but the ruined dress wasn't my problem. It is the gnawing guilt eating me up. I am causing her pain yet I offer her comfort when I can free her from the pain by coming out plain but it will put my mission at risk and ruin everything I have planned."It's ok Amaira, everything will be ok I promise," I comforted her, patting her as she loaded the dress with tears."How will it be ok when I'm being held responsible for what I didn't do," she sniffed."Nothing is hidden forever, I'm sure you will be vindicated," I forced a smile at her."And you'll be found out," my mind snared at me.If I knew I would end up feeling this much guilt I would have disposed of the laxative in a different way and would not have dumped it in someone else's room."What if I say I know the real culprit?" She lifted her head from my shoulders and stared directly into my eyes.My heart thudded loudly and I could only I hope things go well for me tonight before everything finally b
Whoever invented makeup need to be jailed. I am so fucking tired of sitting down, It almost one hour since I have been sitting down here while emma keep doing some magic on my face.I am really tired of sitting down. Geez, my back hurt like hell."Raise your eyebrows," She instructed.Can this ever finished?She has been putting different cosmetics on my eye."Hmmm is it getting finished soon?" I ask but she didn't answer me.I just wanted to know if I will get up from here soon, I am damn tired."If I don't make you look like damsel,the head maid will get angry so better stop complaining," Emma said rudely pushing my head and I frown but kept quiet anyway.I wonder how it was going to be on my face. Was it going to make me look beautiful? I heard makeup make someone more pretty and I was really eager to see how I will look."The makeup kinda suit you though," I heard her muttered but I heard her clearly.I just heard it looks good on me.She pick up a tiny object from the table and
As the knock on the door – much louder than the previous ones, jerked me back to reality, I turned to the door and walked towards it. I was in shock now, trembling in fear of what I thought could be the end of me and my mission there. Surely if I am already busted and all my plans were revealed, I would not leave the mansion alive. I knew that, and now it was probably too late to escape. My mind drifted to the imagination of what might be done to me. Perhaps I would be locked up somewhere in the manor and tortured till death. I decided, even wished, that if it ever came to that, I would make my escape then. I had already studied the entire compound and knew perfectly well about sixty percent of it so it should be easy for me, I thought.As I reached the door, I took in a deep breath before reaching out to grab the knob and turned it slowly as it unlocked. I then pulled the door slowly, opening it just inches wide first to see who was there. I could not be sure what the situation was s
As I moved around with Grey greeting people, I soon realized that the stares they all gave me was not stares of admiration as his partner as I had thought. They were in fact stares that suggested to them who exactly I was to Grey just I had expected earlier before thinking otherwise. How foolish I had been thinking they took me to be his real and discreet partner. I had completely forgotten that these were the people Grey usually moved around and conducted business with. In fact I soon realized that among the people there, some of the men had been present during my auction and even involved in the bidding war with me before I was finally purchased by Grey. What a silly person I had been, thinking that I could move among his associates without being picked out as his sex slave. It turned out this was not the first time Grey had used his sex slaves as dates and escort to these sorts of gatherings and now I was no different from the others. I could not believe I had thought I was differe
"Mabel wait!" Grey yelled as he grabbed my wrist, my heart was racing fast as he grabbed my hand. Gosh! I had let the cat out of the bag and now I wasn't sure of what to tell him."Mabel," Grey repeated and I turned to look at him, he had the same facial features with my son and I wondered if he ever met Thomas my son, maybe he might guess….gosh! I'm thinking too much nonsense."I'm here," I murmured."Sit Mabel," he ordered but I continued to stand. "Take a seat Mabel," he repeated, after breathing I sat beside him. Grey was still holding my wrist as if I was going to run away if he ever let go of me."So, you have a son?" He asked and I nodded, he was silent for a while and I couldn't let myself imagine what was going through his mind. "How come nobody knew about it?" My heart skipped a beat when he asked that question.What should I say? That I left my son with his nanny all because I wanted to bring Grey to bar? Stupid! I thought for a while as my mind was in chaos, thankfully a l
Mabel's POVA week later, I was lying on Grey's laps as he sat on the couch, he raised his hand and starts stroking my hair gently. "Does it feel good?" He asked when he noticed that my eyes were closed."Mn," I nodded my head and he continued stroking my hair."Can I ask you out Mabel?" Grey suddenly asked."Really?" I asked without opening my eyes."Yes," he replied."I'm in!" I said with my eyes still closed."I'm guessing, where should we go?" He asked without stopping, I opened my eyes and our gaze met . "Do you have any place in your mind?" He asked again, I thought for a while and smiled."Yes," I replied still smiling at him."So, where is the place if I may ask?" I put my head down on his laps and he resumed with hisgesture."Uhm, let's go for a picnic at a park," I replied and waited for his response. "It's going to be crowded," he murmured and I understood what he meant. As a Mafia lord, he couldn't go anywhere freely because enemies could be lurking around so he needee
Mabel's POV,Standing in front of the balcony as I read a daily news on my phone, I frowned when I read the trending news "MAN FOUND DEAD IN A BUSH!" I took a close view at my phone to see the dead body of the man that had been found then, just then my phone rang. I looked at the caller and shivered. Desmond? He must have seen the news and is about to ask if I knew anything about it or maybe I had seen it."Hello Desmond!" I greeted as I received the call."Hi Mabel, how are you doing?" He asked, I could hear loud noises coming from the place Desmond was at and I guessed he was at the scene."I'm fine, what's up with the call?" I asked."Have you seen the daily news?" He asked, I was silent fir a while as I thought of what to give him as a response. "Mabel?" Desmond called when I didn't say anything."I'm here," I replied."I asked a question Mabel, is anything the problem?" He asked, he sounded worried and I smiled to myself."Not really," I replied. "Okay, so I asked if you had se
We got to my underground prison a few minutes later because the car had gone at it's highest speed."Stop here," I ordered and the driver stoped the car few meters away from the underground. Brian turned to look at me."Is Mabel in there? Because as far as I know, this isn't Keith's underground," he said and gave me a confused gaze, I laughed and patted his shoulder."Your cousin is in there," I replied,vhe furrowed his eyebrows and glared at me."Which cousin?""Keith's daughter," I replied and he let out a long hiss."None of them are related to me!" He snapped and got down from the car. Without waiting for me, he started moving towards the underground."Where do you think you are going?" I asked and stood by the side of the car."To save Mabel!" He retorted and continued walking."You won't find her without me," I said again, he stopped and turned to look at me."What the hell are you saying?!" He yelled and took hurried steps towards me, he grabbed my collar when he got to me. "Ar
Grey's POV,As I laid on the bed and thought of ways to stop Brian from coming to my place, Mabel's phone that she had forgotten in my bedroom started ringing, when I checked the caller I frowned. It was the same Brian I was thinking about, just what the hell did he want to tell her?I picked up the phone and received Brian's incoming call. "Hello Mabel," he said and I was filled with jealousy, this guy had his own way of charming ladies which I find annoying and perverting."Stay away from Mabel you brat!" I warned, Brian went silent for a while and then I heard him laugh."Are you not ashamed of yourself Grey?" He asked and continued to laugh."I should be asking you that question little brat!' I retorted and he laughed harder."You're so funny!" He mocked. "Picking a lady's phone call and warning a suitor to stop calling her, that is a very shameful thing to do Grey. Don't you know that?" He asked."Was that how your mother and father got to know each other?" I asked him back and
"What were you both about to do before I came in?" Emma asked as soon as Grey left the ward. I laid back on the bed and covered myself with the sheet, Emma was angry and pulled it away."What is it girl?" I asked and dragged the sheet from her which she dragged from me again."I won't let you sleep until you tell me what the both of you were doing in my absence!" She said and smiled mischievously."What's with that smile?" I asked and grinned at her."Nothing much!" She said and yawned. "So, the both of you thought I already left the hospital and was about to have sex. Isn't it?" She asked and we both laughed."Stop thinking far Emma!" I said while laughing."Stop thinking far Emma," she mimicked and we laughed again. "But seriously Mabel," she turned serious and I stopped laughing."Nothing was going to happen Emma, he was going to kiss me until you came in," I said, my cheeks were feeling hot as Emma continuously stared at me."Are you sick?" She suddenly asked, I frowned and shook
"Mabel?!" The door burst open, rudely interrupting the silence between Grey and I. Emma dashed in looking panicked but when she saw Grey and I, she frowned and relaxed a bit. "Emma?" I called and beamed a smile at her, she smiled back as she approached my bed."Are you alright Mabel?"she asked and I nodded my head, she looked at me not believing what I said. "Are you sure? Or is it that you don't want to tell me," she asked and pouted, I laughed a little at Emma."Why would I lie to you?" I asked, she shrugged and took the second seat beside me."Who knows? Maybe you don't want me to know how much pain you are feeling because you wil be worried," she said and paused. "Emma do you think thar-" I was interrupted by her."I understand Mabel," she said and smiled sadly. "You don't have to tell me," she added and u nodded in agreement."Anyways, how did you know I was stabbed?" I asked, Grey can't be the one to yell her. "Oh! Martha did!" She exclaimed and held my hand. "Martha told us
I woke up to find myself wrapped up with bandage , I looked around me and noticed i was in a ward and there was no one in here with me. The door opened and Grey walked in with a tray of food in his hands, then it dawned on me that he was the one who must have brought me to the hospital. I quickly closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep, I felt Grey keep the food on the table and walk towards me. He took the empty seat beside me and held my right palm, I heard him exhale and bit my lips secretly. "Aren't you feeling hungry?" I heard him say but still didn't want to open my eyes, I couldn't bear to embarrass myself in front of him. "Mabel open your eyes now," he ordered, I sighed and opened my eyes. "I'm sorry, "he starts to rub my palm and I frowned inwardly, just what is he doing?! "If I had come earlier, this would never had happened," he said, I was stunned that Grey could offer an apology. I couldn't believe it and snapped my eyes open to find a pair of blue eyes gazing a
I walked into the building which was a small restaurant and I spotted Martha at a corner, with a bowl of finished soup before her. She was looking out the window and when she noticed me, her face turned red in anger but she tried to keep it in. I walked towards her and sat before her with a questioning look. "Where the hell have you been again Mabel. This is what I hate about you. Keeping me waiting.""What do you mean by that?" I asked, I was confused and at the same time angry with myself for coming here. What connection do we both even have? I don't like her neither does she likes me so I wonder why she has called me here."Don't you dare talk to me in that manner you little wench!" She threatened, I shook my head and stood up from my seat."I'd rather leave than have you talk to me in that manner," I said and was about to walk away when she stood up from her seat and grabbed my wrist."Don't you dare walk out on me!" She yelled."This is not Grey's house where I have to obey you
