2022-03-31 14:40:18The smell of freshly baked bread spread across the entire mansion and had even awaken me from my slumber. I lazily dragged myself out of the bed to ease my sudden craving for bread.
I rubbed my eyes a couple of times trying remove the sleepiness in it and so I could find my slippers. I also checked the time and was shocked as how I could have such strong craving at this hour.
The light in the lounge was dinner and I couldn't see a thing as I walked pass it into the kitchen, there were some chefs who were still awake to prepare the early morning breakfast which included the bread.
I personally couldn't wait for the next six hours to eat mine and had requested that I be given mine to eat. They gave it to me with a plate of scrambled eggs, bacon, ice cream of all kind. I thought I wouldn't be able to finish it but I was wrong, I kept stuffing my mouth like a glutton without waiting for most of the food to digest.
The chef who was with me in the kitchen asked

The look of confusion in Alicia's eyes as she saw me in Damon's hold. Her hands let go of the door and it opened wider so much that Jeanette was able to push herself in. We were still in each other arms even when Beatriz came."What's going on?" Her voice was sounding weak like she was about to cry.Damon let me go slowly, we both had the obligation of explaining things before it escalate to another thing. "Look Alicia it isn't what you are thinking" I walked closer to her trying to explain the entire situation."Then tell me Priscilla.... What is it that I am thinking? Cause right now I am confused why a surrogate would be in the arms of my fiance" her voice getting higher at each word that she spoke, her eyes were already burning with intense flames that could wipe out an entire country.I was weak. Was this it? My life was about going down the hill because of a man that I cared not so much about, even Xander who had came in last couldn't bear to look a

When no one was looking I slip out and went to the botanical garden, I know Alicia was on to me and she is looking for anything that could be incriminating to be put on me, besides I had already taken up Rachel position of being Damon's other woman and she only had to confirm it.The problem with this is both Damon and I were clueless as to what we were doing, today's conversation proved it. Damon might be a successful man in the business world due to his intellect but he lacks intelligence in relationships related matters.A month with him has thought me he was a man who allows people ride him when it came to his personal life. He could neither choose what he wanted for himself rather he kept someone at his side who would, take Rachel for example.Rachel at a point might had loved him.... I really don't know but she used the opportunity of taking control of his emotions.Damon and I were both in a phase called the "it's complicated" stage. We didn'

Beatriz laughed at the content of the newspaper before handing it over to Damon. "Read page 8" she said getting up to her feet and going to the lounge to seat next to Alicia who was organizing her final wedding plans with the wedding planner.Curious to know what Beatriz was laughing about, Damon quickly flipped the pages, he was about reading the paper when the police forced it's way through the security guarding the gate creating a ruckus that triggered the police to pull out their gun, it was an extreme nightmare. Out of concern as to what was going on we all went out to find out, only to be shown a warrant for Damon's arrest.Damon refused the handcuffs to be placed on him as he was willing to comply with the police, the scene was nothing worth watching, even the reporters were already present forcefully trying to get their cameras to capture each scene.Alicia had fought through her way to meet Damon when he was a step into the car. Her eyes filled wi

Her father, Mr Collette was one of Damon's trusted investors who was now threatening to not only leave the company but also call off the wedding.Understanding her father's threat wasn't a child's play Alicia had to leave to douse his anger before it came to reality. She was still keen on getting married to Damon even after everything.Her love for him was stronger than I thought.Beatriz had been asleep ever since the doctor came to check on her yesterday. I made sure to check on her from time to time incase if she wasn't dead. Thankfully she wasn't, I could see her breathing so she must be enjoying her sleep.I sighed at the thought of Damon having to sleep on the floor or on a bunk bed that probably reaks with no blanket or anything other than his suit jacket. He must've been really lonely.The reporters who were still at the gate hopefully waiting for

"Where is he?" Alicia asked the butler immediately she walked in, with a lot of luggages following her along with her trusted best friend Jeanette by her side. Jeanette was trying to convince her about something when she ordered that the luggages she brought be taken to her room.Alicia walked past me into Damon's room, she tried opening the door but it was locked from inside. She knocked continuously until Damon opened it for her. Alicia didn't wait for him to even greet her before she threw her hands around his shoulders.There was this burning sensation in me as I glared at both of them, I really didn't want to stare but this feeling, I think it's.... jealousy. I glared at them so much Jeanette must be wondering what I was thinking because she too couldn't get her eyes off me by the time I had turned away.Alicia's hands were all over Damon's face as she found each new places to kiss, when she finally came to his lips I notice how Damon took a step back

I can't say hiding under the sheets while Alicia has a one on one with her fiance was a thrill. I was expecting her to pounce on me anytime soon, infact even now. Damon was still at the door and I couldn't tell what was going on neither could I hear anything under this heavy duvet.After a while I heard Damon's door close shut, I quickly removed the duvet to see if she had actually left. Thankfully she left and so did Damon. There was no need wasting any more time in his room, I packed everything that belong to me and went back to my room to change.While I had my bath I was unaware of the chaotic situation that was going on outside, it was until I was done and asked a maid beside me before I was filled in on the entire details. My mouth was wide open at the news, turns out the protesters against Damon's release found out he was no longer in police custody and had already been released.They have moved their location down here to pressurize him to further

Seconds, minutes, hours, days and even weeks passed but there was no sign of Damon, he didn't even bother calling to see if I was fine or is it possible that I had being dumped without even realizing it.... I hope not.Nevertheless, the frequent visits Xander made managed to cover the void Damon had indirectly created. Though Xander was giving me that attention I desperately sought from Damon it's just wasn't enough because it didn't come from the person I wanted. I do hate the fact that I was leading Xander on and had failed a lot of times to correct his misconception so he could move on with his life but the fear of being lonely again scared me.My ache for Damon was growing rapidly and I was so obsessed with checking for recent messages, being on time to catch the news and even social media--- that one got me hooked on my phone.I am currently at the edge of running mad as I constantly had my eyes on the window in case if Damon makes a surprise vi

The Mistress Surrogate Epilogue
Five years later Though the surgery on Damon was successful, he wasn't responding to treatment. I kept believing that each month my belly grew that he was one step from waking up. Sometimes I would cry on his bed that he does wake up but be honest what has crying ever done, crying didn't bring back my mum and so it was impossible to bring him back. At the ninth month I had camped in his room for several days to see if I monitored him he would wake up and then.... Lest I forget, during those months I was busy trying to get Damon out from his coma, I had actually attended Beatriz hearing. I visited her a day to that and she apologized for all that she had done and told me that she actually liked me for her son but with the deal she had with Alicia couldn't let her love me like she did before. She told me she would confess to everything and take the entire blame but that wasn't what I wanted her to do, so I had ask her to focus on telling the truth.

She was running her own entire wedding in our faces and she was doing pretty good at it. When everyone were very much seated Alicia asked for all of her men to leave as there was no need for them being here since there was no place we could run to."Today is for us, Damon. I hope the ropes aren't too tight on you, you see I would love to release you but I can't trust that you would stay still till our wedding is over" she said softly. "Please carry on"The officiator began with a few passages from the Bible about marriage and how sacred it is.... I could see Alicia getting impatient with him and she gave him an order that he should speed things up."Hey.... Psst" Jeanette called for my attention from the order row. "Aren't you going to do something to stop the wedding? I mean if it was my man getting married to someone else I know that I won't seat still and let her snatch him away from..... Fine I get that we aren't on good terms and believe it I do

Priscilla POVSeeing Beatriz leave in that manner had spiked the room for gossip as silent whispers from the workers could be heard. I slowly slipped out of the living room after Alicia had gone somewhere probably to check on Beatriz, those two really care for each other and Xander had left to search for a good lawyer for his mother.I heard silent sobs coming out of Elizabeth's room as she packed all of her things into her luggage bag. I knew she was heartbroken and had felt bad for all that she had done, but the things she did to Damon was pretty much despicable and I would side with Damon anytime any day if compared.I spent an hour in my room trying to process all that had happened. Would Damon had actually gotten his mother arrested for my sake? If so, how did he know she was the culprit? And if that were to be the case, why wasn't Alicia arrested as well? She is the one who spearheaded the entire mission and now she is walking free like nothing has happened.

Alicia POVThe heel on my stilettos made a sound each step I took on this cold tiled ground. I held my breathe from taking in the stench of all these criminals that were being thrown into jail for some particular period of time.I went straight to the officer who had arrested Beatriz an hour ago or two.... Somewhere there about, was to busy laughing to had even realize the time she was arrested."I'm here to see Mrs Beatriz" I said, flashing those teeth that I had just got whitened for this particular reason.... Smiling actually makes you younger."Mrs Beatriz?" He said lifting a questioning brow, "are you here in place of her family cause I just spoke with Damon and he said none of his family members will be bailing her out, they have even made that clear to the judge""Oh.... I am not here for that at all, infact I am only concerned as to how she is coping, I don't want to go against Damon's wishes" I said as my smile grew wider, I just can't belie

Alicia POVTwo years agoI wept profusely as I got the message of the cancellation of my wedding to Damon. Our wedding was the next day and everybody had already anticipated for this day to come for me, they all knew how much I loved Damon.Though I had no single clue as to what was the cause of the call off I still had expected Damon to had called rather than sending me a text message. The thought of having to send out a message to my invitees about Damon calling off the wedding had me shed tears even more.Despite of all that I was feeling inside I can never hate Damon rather my love for him grew. I knew he had his eyes on someone else that he couldn't reach but still that didn't stop me. I loved him ever since our university days where we both studied a different course but still cross each other's part daily.Our first meeting had brought about "love at first sight" for me. It was like an over used drama scene when a girl is been pushed over by a

I knew it was impossible that Damon gave what was mine to another woman whose job is to crave for his attention and does all she can to get it. But it did make me feel uncomfortable as my eyes didn't leave her hand, I was focused on it so much that I had forgotten what was going on.To be honest I felt betrayed, which is why I calmed myself with a believe that there was a coincidence she had the ring on her finger, she probably would've bought the ring at the same store Damon got his. I should be calm, don't think Priscilla, please don't.Damon turned to Link to get Elizabeth's parents and that Liliana be given to her nanny to watch over for now."Why are you bringing my parent into our problem, this should be settled by the both of us and not them" Elizabeth begged as Damon was adamant on bringing them in despite her plead, "Stop Brett now, please.... Xander! Bloody do something cause your name is on it""What did you say? Whose name is on it? I thought

My heart sank as I dread the day I refused his proposal, my response was going to be yes and then we get married and live happily ever after---- that's the plan. I sobbed harder, resting my back on the wall only to find Jeanette laughing at me. "You must really love Damon.... well he isn't dead but he is back and had requested the presence of everyone"I glared at her as the urge to slap her gripped me, too bad I wasn't the one who got the chance to..... Of all the people in this mansion to play this joke and she chose Damon.Jeanette had called Alicia as she was walking by to tell her the joke she just pulled on me, in no second Alicia's hand met Jeanette's skin. "Never joke on Damon's life like that! If you want to make a silly joke use yourself or anybody but never in your gold digging life utter Damon's name close to the word death" hearing her speak, I had to admit that this was the first time we both share the same thoughts.Alicia looked at me, she saw ho

I stood in awe of the drama Alicia was pulling off quite well. The sympathy from the maids and other solicited spectators, who had cameras rolling, taking in every action Alicia portrayed. I had to admit that her acting was superb, and believe it or not it was Oscar worthy.She threw her hair to the side as she wiped her tears, taking Jeanette hands before adding, "This is my trustworthy friend who has stood with me all through this trying time" hugging Jeanette she went further to add, "Thank you for being there for me"Wasn't it today that I heard Beatriz and her discussing her return? Then how the hell is she back this soon? I really don't like this one bit."Welcome back dear" Beatriz came out to hug her and kissed her forehead. "Regardless of the situation, you will forever be the daughter of this family and for that we the entire Prince family shall host a special homecoming event for you in three days time, first let get you settled" she ordered one of th

The diary Elizabeth wrote was opened wide in front of the police officer I ws directed to deliver my case. I watched as he scanned through the pages without having to read it's content. When he got to the part where the handwriting went amiss, he looked up at me to question me about it."Did you forge this to incriminate a person?" He gave me stern look, aggressively pushed the diary to my side and stopped any bit of explanation from my mouth. "Please leave, we don't have time for this" he said before throwing his eyes to the screen of his computer."I have another proof...." I tried saying, he paid no heed to my contention as he got up from his seat and left me in my baffling position.I felt a little disgusted at his behaviour but I had no time to dwell on a corrupt person who refuse to see the fact that was in front of his. I grabbed the diary and left the table.As i was focused on unzipping my bag so that I could put the book back in, I bumped
