Alyssa slowly opened her eyes to an unfamiliar room bathed in dim light. A throbbing headache and a sense of disorientation quickly set in. As the fog lifted, memories of the previous night's drunken escapade began to surface. The realization hit her like a ton of bricks – she was in Mr. Mafia's room. " What am I doing here? !" Alyssa asked herself. She cautiously surveyed her surroundings, taking in the opulent decor that seemed to echo the man's larger-than-life reputation. The room exuded power and danger, a stark contrast to Alyssa's usual world. Panic tightened in her chest as she wondered how she had ended up in the lair of someone with such an ominous title. Alyssa took a look at herself and discovered that she wasn't putting on her dress rather she was putting on an oversized nightmare. The events of the night remained a blurry montage to Alyssa, and she silently berated herself for the reckless choices that had led her here. Just as she contemplated making a swift and
While sipping her coffee, Alyssa scanned the area with her eyes in search of the contract file. Unable to locate it, Alex observed her quest and inquired about what she was looking for.Alyssa clarified that she was uncertain of the contract file's whereabouts and expressed concern that it might have been left at the bar where she had been intoxicated.Wearing a dangerous smile, Alex questioned why Alyssa was even looking for the contract file, believing that she might not be inclined to discuss it after their intense meeting the previous day concerning the contract.Alyssa hesitated, unsure whether to respond to Alex's probing question. After moments of contemplation, she finally replied, explaining that her hesitation wasn't due to objections against the readjustment of the marriage contract. Instead, it was the suddenness of the changes and the introduction of unexpected rules that prompted her to reconsider before signing.Alex and Alyssa decided to revisit the discussion about th
Few days of Aunt Judy and her daughter handling the company Alyssa had handed over to them, the company too a huge turn.Alyssa's decision to let go of her company to Aunt Judy proved to be a catastrophic choice as Aunt Judy's management took a dark turn. The once-thriving company became a breeding ground for incompetence and mistreatment under Aunt Judy's leadership.Aunt Judy, lacking the necessary skills and dedication, handled the company with a carelessness that bordered on negligence. Basic operations were mismanaged, and decision-making was marred by poor judgment. Employees, once motivated and efficient, found themselves grappling with a toxic work environment created by Aunt Judy's inability to lead.To make matters worse, Aunt Judy's daughter, Olivia, joined the company and displayed a blatant disregard for the well-being of the employees. Olivia, fueled by a sense of entitlement, treated the staff with disrespect and callousness. She exploited her familial connection to A
Alyssa emerged from the soothing warmth of her bath, feeling refreshed. She carefully measured out her prescribed medication, a routine she had grown accustomed to due to her battle with illness. With determination, she swallowed the pills, hopeful for relief because of how badly her head was aching.Afterward, she headed to the kitchen where the aroma of her favorite takeout filled the air.The bag from her favorite restaurant held a comforting promise of a tasty meal. Alyssa sat down, savoring each bite, grateful for the nourishment that would help her regain strength. Alyssa had always loved to cook but due to her health she couldn't cook as often as she wished to, But whenever she was hungry and couldn't cook she always ordered from one of her favorite restaurants which was also the restaurant her Dad used to order from when she was still a kid."Uhhh, as good as always," Alyssa said as she ate the food bit by bit.Alyssa, fueled by determination, finished her meal and swiftly

Since Alex didn't tell Alyssa what time he was picking her up she didn't want to get dressed and start waiting for him.So she waited till it was evening since it was an evening party they were going to to get dressed. According to the message she got.Alyssa's room buzzed with anticipation as she laid out the outfit she had carefully chosen earlier. The soft glow of fairy lights illuminated her collection of dresses, each holding a promise of a memorable night. She meticulously arranged accessories on her dresser, a delicate dance of anticipation.The dress, a shimmering cascade of midnight black, seemed to call to her. Its silky fabric whispered promises of elegance and mystery. Alyssa delicately slipped into it, the cool material hugging her frame like a second skin. As she fastened the silver necklace around her neck, the pendant glinted in the dim light, echoing the sparkle in her eyes.Alyssa's reflection in the mirror revealed a transformation. The subtle curve of her smile h
Tony, with a polished demeanor and a hint of intrigue in his eyes, engaged in conversation with Mr. Clinton at a corner in the party hall. As they exchanged words about business and the nuances of the corporate world, a sudden shift in the atmosphere caught their attention.A wave of hushed whispers swept through the party hall like a gentle breeze before a storm. Tony and Mr. Clinton exchanged a curious glance, their conversation momentarily suspended. It was as if an invisible thread had pulled the focus of the entire room toward a new and captivating presence.Turning in unison, their eyes fell upon the entrance where a couple, Alex and Alyssa, had just stepped into the party. The air seemed to shimmer with an electric charge as the collective gaze of the attendees fixated on the duo. Tony, ever perceptive, raised an eyebrow, silently questioning the source of this sudden attention.As the couple gracefully navigated the room, a puzzled expression crossed Tony's face. He leaned
With a warm smile on Alyssa's face she replied "No problem, I know you had a good reason for not coming""Thanks, dear," Mr Clinton replied.Alyssa still used to talk to Mr Clinton after they relocated, But when her mom's death started taking a huge turn in her Dad's life they didn't have time to talk anymore.And when her Dad died she sent a message to Mr Clinton informing him about her Dad's death but there was no reply from him and ever since then, she hasn't heard from him.Alex just watched silently as Mr Clinton and Alyssa talked."So how is work going now darling? Am sure you will be able to do better than your Dad ever did” Mr Clinton asked, making Alissa's mood change a bit."Aunt Judy is in charge now," Alyssa said softly."Uhmmm, Judy!...in charge of the business? Are you talking about Harley's younger sister?...""Yes sir," said Alyssa."The Judy I know doesn't even understand the system of business, so why would she be in charge of Harley business…wow that unexpected but
“What are you doing here?” Alex asked Lauren immediately if he saw her with Alyssa.“Get out now!” Alex yelled.“Reduce your voice, she's just regaining consciousness now please, and I will go” Lauren said as she was about to stand up when Alyssa held onto her.Alex was shocked he wasn't sure what was happening but he didn't want to see her.Alex immediately went to Alyssa. “ Hey baby doll…how are you feeling?” He asked out of curiosity.“i'm good, don't shout at Lauren” Alyssa said.“Please don't talk Alyssa let Celine get to your doctor first and let her check and be sure you are fine before you start talking” Lauren said calmly.“Yes, don't talk Aly” Alex agreed with Lauren.Celine came in shortly with the doctor and she told everyone to wait out while she checked up on Alyssa.Few minutes later she came out and informed them that Alyssa was fine and she was asking Alex if Alex should go see her.Alex immediately went to see Alyssa. “Hey baby doll, are you asking of me? I'm sorry I
THERE WEEKS LATER A sunny afternoon Alyssa was coming back from the hospital when she went for her check.Immediately she stepped out of the hospital she saw a taxi but as she tried stopping it the taxi took another way so she wanted to cross over to the other side of the road to stop a cab from there as she tried crossing the road a car came with full speed as it hit Alyssa and ran off.Alex who was following Alyssa from a distance all fainted as he watched Alyssa fall to the ground…when he was following her and he saw that she went to the hospital he was wondering what she went to do their but at these moment he couldn't think again he immediately ran to Alyssa who was already unconscious as she laid lifeless on the ground and blood was drip from her head.Alex was so scared he immediately rushed Alyssa back to the hospital.Olivia and Tony stopped the car miles away from the accident so nobody would suspect they did it and they looked at each other and congratulated themselves.To
Few days laterOlivia's friend called her up and informed her about Alyssa. She told her that she saw Alyssa and a lady at the hospital the other day but she wasn't sure which of them was sick and Olivia thanked her friend for the information before hanging up.She called Tony immediately and informed him about the new update that Alyssa wa going to the hospital and she was going with someone, Olivia didn't listen to her mum she joined hands with Tony to bring down Alyssa and Alex and Olivia mum knew about everything but she did not about since Olivia had informed her that they were going to get billions from these and they could run far away with the money.“Alyssa i will be the end of you trust me” Olivia muttered to herself.********“Thanks Lauren…I can't thank you enough for what you have done for me” Alyssa said.“Come on Alyssa don't thank me, I mean you have also stood up from me once so what in the world are you thanking me for” Lauren said as she laid down on the couch.“And
THREE DAYS LATERAlex was done with all he had to do so it was time he traveled back to town to go check up on Alyssa.Alex had told Jake to keep an eye on Alyssa since Alyssa told him.not to stay back that she wouldn't need anyone to protect her Alex told Jake to ensure she doesn't find out that he was keeping a tab on her.For the past three days Alex had buried himself with work so he didn't feel much pain. A huge part of him was still missing Alyssa but as he was working day in day out there was no space for depression.Alex knew that going back to town means he has to seal with his brother annoying schemes and plot and seeing Alyssa form a distance without going to her.It hurts to think about all that but he was prepared, and he hoped he was prepared enough for the worse case scenario.He took off in the morning with some of his bodyguards and arrived almost in the afternoon so he went straight to Alyssa house to inform her get that he was back, Jake had told him that she was at
“I have made up my mind Alex I don't want any treatment! And I don't want to travel to anywhere inside I want to go back home, I mean my house back to town…after reading these letter I know I don't have more than a month left even with the help of drugs do I better make the best out of the days I have left on earth” Alyssa said.“Stop saying that Alex, think about me how do you want me to survive without you Alyssa, I can't live without you Alyssa…you know how much I love you now so why are you doing these why are you saying all these, you are not dying my love am with you we will go through there together” Alex eyes became watery.“But that's my faith Alex and I can't let you change it and I won't allow it affect you Alex” Alyssa said.“And what do you mean by you wouldn't make it affect me?” Alex asked curiously, hoping it was not what he was thinking.“I want to end this Alex, I can't let you go through the pain my dad went through after my mum's Death and I am sure you will be abl
Three Days laterThe past few days have been the best for both Alex and Alyssa and they could both testify to it that they have enjoyed every bit of it. The time they spent together, when they watched movies and ate together, when Alex took Alyssa on a long drive one of the nights and when she prepared a meal for him they enjoyed every bit of it and hoped for more.It was a blissful Saturday morning when Alyssa woke up and decided that she was going to go for a little shopping since she needed a new shoe, Alex wanted to follow her but she told him not to worry since he had lot of work to do since and all thanks to her he was having little time at work during the week so she told him to stay back and work that she wouldn't be long.Alyssa left a few minutes after they had their breakfast together. And Alex went ahead to work since he had a lot of work to do.In an hour time Alyssa was already at the mall, she went with some bodyguard as Alex insisted that he was going to go with her if
—--------EVENING----------- Alyssa was so excited throughout the day that she even decided to prepare dinner since she had her husband for the very first time.She went grocery shopping with Jake and called Mrs Jane to find out what Alex's favourite dish was.She happily prepared his dinner since he had called her to inform her that he would be coming back earlier than usual today.Alex called Alyssa ever second he was free at the office just to heard her voice and Alyssa was so happy about it, she had never been called so frequently by anyone in her life except her aunt when ever she wanted to nag her or ask for her help but expect that she had never been called just to be reminded that she was beautiful and the best thing that has ever happened to someone.Alyssa waited patiently for Alex to come back immediately she was done cooking she went up to her room to take her bath and she got dressed in a simple ware that is a bum shot and a round neck top that suits her skin well. Alex a
“What took you so long to say those words to me, have been dying to hear you say that you love me” Alex said looking into Alyssa's eye.“I still can't believe these Alex, I mean I just hope and not dreaming because if I am then am never going to wake up from.these perfect dream” Alyssa said.“no baby doll, these isn't a dream and I can tell you fot such that I love you.
