Ths clock struck four o'clock in the afternoon, Grey stood up from his bed and dashed into his bathroom to have a quick shower. He had planned to spend the day with Bel reading a novel. His body was wet when he came out of the bathroom and his dried his body with the towel on his neck.He walked to his wardrobe and took out a plain cloth, he inspected himself at the mirror before leaving his room rushing towards their favorite spot. She was not there when he arrived and he he was a little bit sad. He stood under the tree, waiting for her with the book in his hands. When he was tired of waiting for her he decided to go and look for her but caught sight of Bel running fast. He frowned at her when she approached him."I'm sorry I'm late, work was much today" she apologized and gestured for him to sit, he looked away pretending he was angry with her. "Uhm…are you alright?" She asked showing a sign of concern."How can I be alright Bel? I've been here waiting for you since" he replied try
The next morning, Grey was preparing himself so he could visit Bel in her quarters. On his way there, he met his step mother sitting on the couch I'm the living room watching The Daily News. He was about to greet her when she cast him a deadly glare, Grey frowned and without saying anything to her he left the house.He met Bel who was also on her way to find him. They both smiled at each other not knowing that Grey's stepmother was glaring at them from the living room window."Wait till I show you the real consequences for calling me an old hag!" She scoffed and went back to watch the daily news.....Outside the living room,"Hi Grey, good morning" Bel greeted blushing inwardly as she remembered what happened between them the previous day."Were you on your way to find me?" He asked looking surprised and happy because she had come to his home."Oh yes! I was through with my chores and decided to come out and look for you, hope you are not angry about it?" She asked."Hell no I'm n
The next day, Grey was getting ready so he could go and meet Bel at their favorite spot. Luckily, she was already there waiting for him. He approached her with a book."Heyyy what's up?" She asked and they both sat to read the book he had brought with him."My dad has gone out for a business trip Bel" he said and looked at her."When is he coming back? Are you sad about it? Do you feel the urge to follow him? Are you missing him? Are you,-" her questions were just too much that he groaned loudly."Oh come on Bel, lately your questions are getting too much" he frowned and looked at her. "Which of your questions should I answer Bel?" He asked."All of them" she replied and blushed in embarrassment."Firstly, my father didn't tell us when he is coming back. Secondly, he left this morning so I can't miss him, it's too early for that. Thirdly, I don't feel sad about it, instead I feel excited because I can go to anywhere I want to without fearing for my father it what he will do to me if h
For days Grey had been in his room, crying and starving himself. The guilt he was feeling was just too much for him to even eat anything. The door to his room opened and he heard footsteps. He clenched his fists in anger as he thought of who might have come into his room."Leave my room!" He ordered without raising his head to look at who had come in. The footsteps were becoming louder as they approached him. " I asked you to leave my room!" He warned again but it only came closer."Grey?" He heard his father's voice and shivered. When did his father came back? Has he heard about what happened? "Father" he murmured without looking at his father for fear of being punished."What happened to you Grey? Why do you look so tattered?" His father asked and sat beside him on the bed. Grey was shivering, he couldn't tell his father that he had raped a girl. He just couldn't bring himself to tell his father."I did something bad father" he replied and started crying. His father wasn't please w
Within two years, Grey had become a Mafia Lord through the guidance of his father. He was even stronger than his father and had become popular in the underground business. He was sitting in his room, lost in his thoughts. Bel. She has always been in his mind, she was the sole reason why he had decided to join the Mafia. Just as he remembered what had happened he clenched his fists in rage. He took out his phone from his pocket, went to his contact list and dialed a number. The receiver picked the call immediately. Soon he was done with the receiver and kept the phone in his pocket. Few minutes later, his phone rang and he received it. He talked with the caller for a while before smiling. He would make that woman suffer for the pains he and Bel had gone through. He stood up from his seat preparing to leave home.....~Standing at the door of an underground prison, Grey could hear the painful screams of his stepmother. He smirked wickedly before entering the prison. He saw his stepm
Grey scoffed as he looked at his father's company, he walked in without sparing any staff a glance until he got to his father's office. Without knocking, he entered and found his father f**king a whore in the doggy style. "Nice style" he mocked, both the whore and his father were both shocked when they saw him smiling at them."You!! Get out of your now!!" His father shouted but he didn't move an inch away from his spot, instead he glared at the whore who shivered when she saw his evil glare."Leave this instant" he said in a commanding tone and his father was looking displeased because Grey had ruined his day with the whore."What do you want?" Grey father asked as he buckled his trouser,the whore went out of the room when she had worn her clothes."I came to tell you that your wife is dead" Grey replied and sat on the couch in the office."You killed her didn't you?" His father asked again with a low voice and sat in his seat."Yes I did, she was the one behind what had happened to
Grey? He had turned himself to a monster when he couldn't find Bel, he did so many evil thing just because of her. But still yet, he couldn't find her. He indulged himself in great mafia battles and would always come back wity victory. When he became too bored, he decided to start keeping mistresses, venting out his anger on any one of them. People were scared of him because they thought he had gone insane. Even when he was doing all of that, Bel was still in his mind, he just couldn't forget about the girl that had been with him for a long time.Anytime he thought of what had happened, he would feel the urge to look for the body of his stepmother, raise her back from the dead and torture her. His mind had gone numb and he could think of nothing else but to kill and torture innocent people. And then, he was given the position of the Great Mafia Lord.....Presently, Weeping bitterly as he remembered his past, Grey tan his hand over his hair biting his lips as he stared at Mabel."
As Mabel and her roommates were rushing so they could get to the hall quickly, they met Grey talking with Martha. He seemed to notice Mabel's presence because that was when he turned and offered her a smile. Her heart missed a beat when she saw him smile at her, he looked away but she couldn't stop thinking about his smile and continued to look at him expecting him to give her another smile."Mabel" she heard Emma call but didn't remove her gaze from that of Grey. "Mabel" Emma called again and nudged her, that was when she snapped out of her daze."Uh? W-What is it?" She asked and frowned at Emma."Look at the master talking with the head maid, are you sure he is not about to report you?" Emma whispered to Mabel, before Mabel could reply her Grey called her. "Make sure you apologize, I can't afford to lose my position as the top make-up artist, so go quick and apologize to him" Emma pushed her forward. Mabel shook her head and walked towards Grey and Martha."Good morning Sir, good mo
"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
