"Continue with the marriage rites priest". Evelyn ordered with a sigh. Who the hell was the lady, she thought within her with a tint of rage."Now by the power invested in me, I now pronounce you as husband and wife. You may kiss the bride". The priest announced with happiness in his tone.To Brittany this was the best day of her life but to Alex it was nothing but a nightmare.Brittany brought her face closer for Alex to kiss but she felt nothing with her eyes closed. On opening her eyes he had taken a few steps from her."Something is off about this wedding". Voices erupted from different places as Alex made his way down the altar."Alex, Alex". Brittany yelled while running after him. By the time she could get to him he was already outside."What do you think you are doing Alex"."We are married now. I guess you are happy. Let me have the antidote". Alex sneered with frustration."Do I disgust you so much that you can't even kiss me?" Brittany uttered with a broken voice. She loved
You definitely do not mean that. John whispered under his breath. Alex has been the most restless person on earth since her predicament. How could she say she didn't want him anywhere near her.You know the doctor said I might not make it past this month.her breath rasped in shallow, ragged gasps, each one a desperate grasp at life that was slipping through his fingers. Her chest felt like it was on fire, every inhalation was a dagger stabbing deeper into his lungs. The world around him blurred, the faces of her loved ones melting into indistinct shapes, their voices muffled by the relentless pounding in her head.I just want peace before I die. John is that too much to ask. Pain seared through her body, an unrelenting wave that refused to ebb. Megan was aware that today was the wedding between Alex and Brittany. She cursed herself severally for even coming into the world.John could feel her pain. But he could also feel Alex's pain. He will often drink himself to stupor. Her name nev
Alex took hasty steps to Megan. Finally he has the antidote. Although he was very anxious. He still held his composure.He opened the door to Megan's hospital room gently revealing her. A sickly pallor clung to her face, her skin a ghostly shade of white, marred by dark circles beneath her eyes that spoke of restless nights. Her cheeks, once full and rosy, had hollowed out, leaving her cheekbones jutting sharply beneath the skin. Her lips, cracked and pale, trembled with each shallow breath. But she looked just as beautiful as ever.Her eyes were closed so she probably didn't know that he was there. He has given a trusted nurse her antidote. She was going to give her with other medications in her next medication time.Alex salvour, her beauty. How he loved her so much. He missed her with his every being. And it was even more painful that he wouldn't be able to be with her.Megan opened her eyes and was met with the cold gaze of Alex. She had suspected that someone entered inside becau
"You can't just expect me to take you with open arms each time you walk into my life,Lex". She called him by the nickname he was used to and he couldn't explain how great that made him feel."Please Megan just let me stay by your side until you fall asleep please". His head was on her stomach so Megan couldn't see his face as tears drilled from them.He was going to miss her so much. The memories they have built was like writing on a rock that can never fade."I love you Megan. You are my world. Without you, I do not have a purpose. I hate that things became like this between us but I promise to not give up until we reunite again"."What are you even saying Alex. I don't even know what to believe anymore. Didn't you want me out of your life, wasn't everything between us all a lie". The words of Brittany seemed to be true and Alex did not even bother to deny it in any way.So what does he mean with all of these? "Don't lie to me Alex. I know everything. I know you and Brittany used to b
As Brittany's hand brushed gently against her skin, she felt a surge of warmth spreading through her chest. Her breath caught in her throat, causing her bosom to rise and fall more rapidly. The subtle touch sent a shiver down her spine, and she could feel her heart beating faster, each thud echoing the intensity of the moment. Her chest, once steady and calm, now moved with a life of its own, elevated by the intoxicating mix of anticipation and desire.Anna knew that she was not supposed to allow Brittany to do this to her but she was too drunk to think about anything. All she could feel and think about was the euphoria she would attain.I know how excited you get whenever I strip. Brittany whispered with a bedroom voice. She seductively traced down her tits loosening the buttons of her clothes. Her big boobs came into view making Anna gasped.She hadn't slept with anyone in a long time. So she couldn't help but feel a certain sensation in between her legs.I don't…. like what you do
The next morning came and Anna was left all alone on the bed. As she changed position, she felt nothing but emptiness. She felt a paper beside her. She immediately grabbed it with some form of panic and behold her heart was left shattered.“Dear Anna, I am sorry things have to end this way. I am sorry I chickened out and decided to leave you hanging. I have decided to move on with my life and chosen Alex. We will be lesbian town.Don’t look for me. I am happy with Alex and I hope you can find live too.”XOXOBrittany.Anna’s hands quivered in anger and confusion as she held the note in her hands. How could she do this to her?They had been together all night and she showed no signs that she would do something like this?Why would she choose that good-for-nothing over her after all the moments they shared? She has thought they had something special.“No!” she screamed as she kicked the table in front of her in anger, the sound of the light table hitting the floor was followed by a loud
With lightning speed, she bolted out of the room ignoring the nurses that she met on the way as they tried to stop her. One of the doctors grabbed her by the rm.“Where do you think you are going? You still need a lot of rest?”“I am fine. I need to get out if here right now!” The doctor wasn’t prepared for what she did next. She pushed him and ran off. She saw a taxi packed by the road side and got in.“Ma’am, I…”“Drive!”Perhaps it was the threatening look or the desperation in her voice that made the man drive off. She gave him directions and as soon as she reached her destination, she got out of the car and dropped the five bucks in her pocket on the seat then she ran into the building where the car stopped. It was a moderately built duplex and aside from the rows of flowers that decorated the lawn, there was nothing much to it.She threw the door open in a hurry and began to check each room in the house. She stopped hen she heard the sound if a woman coming from the kitchen and
All through the ride to the hospital, Evelyn could not help but stare disdain. She would not be stuck taking the girl to the hospital if she hadn’t fainted where she had no choice but to help her.“Are you related to her?”“No!” she lied.“Do you know any of her relatives?” A nurse asked just when another nurse came over and recognized Megan.“Megan? We have been looking all over for her. Please come this way.” She said to her other nurse and they took her to her ward while Evelyn just stared at them as they left.She was on her way out when she though it would not be a good idea to leave her there without accounting for her since people already knew that she was the one who brought her to the hospital. They could suspect that she had something to do with her illness so she put a call through to Enzo, Megan’s brother.She didn’t want Enzo to meet her there so she left immediately she sent him a message since he would not pick her call. Enzo arrived in a hurry. He had almost dismissed
Mr. Leonard’s footsteps echoed softly as he descended the stairs, his eyes were dull as he scanned the room. Alex, Megan, Enzo, and Loyd stood, all eyes on him. Jake clung to his mother's side, his small hand gripping hers tightly."Jake," Leonard said softly, stepping forward with a smile. “You look so much like your mother.” Megan swallowed, her lips pressed tightly together, but she didn’t respond. Her grip on Jake’s hand tightened as Leonard reached out to touch the boy’s face. Jake smiled a little but moved behind his mother to hide. He knew Grandpa hurt mum, so he was also angry.Leonard’s hand dropped slowly, hurt. “Maybe I deserve that,” he murmured, sighing as he pulled back. Enzo cleared his throat as dinner was served and they all moved to the table, sitting in silence as the sound of cutlery clinking on dishes became the only noise.After a long pause, Leonard cleared his throat and looked up at his children. “I know I wasn’t a good father.”Loyd scoffed, muttering under
Two years later.Things may have seemed like they will never go back to normal for Megan, it was from one trouble to another bigger one. However it says with trouble comes ease.Megan stood in front of the crystal like window as she admired the light blue sky. How she wishes she could just stand here forever. As it reminded her of her better and bad Days.“Mummy, we are going to be late, daddy is waiting”. Little Jake, who was not so little anymore, bugged his mother with his sharp and piercing tone.Yes, Megan and Alex got married last year and they have been happy together. You might wonder what happened to Evelyn and Brittany. Well Evelyn was dead obviously.However Brittany's life never remained the same. She got depressed and started taking drugs, Mr Leonard still considered her his daughter so he sent her to rehab.“Oh, baby, Megan's face lit up with a smile. How she loved this little boy. Mummy is done already, let's go”. She grabbed onto his hands and moved towards the living
Life can be unpredictable right. Evelyn was still dazed, it felt as though her legs couldn't move.“No,no that is not true, she sniffed hard. It's not true. He died, I was winning and all of you were my puppets, everything was going according to my grand plan”. She kept emphasising on her words while pointing at Leonard.“Shut up woman, he interjected. I was never dead even if you did everything possible to get me out of the way. I heard the things you said to me while I was unconscious”.Evelyn gasped for the upteenth time. “How is this possible?” However instead of feeling remorse for her evil activities, she felt nothing but anger. It brewed slowly inside of her that it made her burst.“It's all your fucking fault. Did you think after how you betrayed me I will just let you into my life again. I accepted you because of your wealth and what you had to offer to our daughter”.“And I killed your wife to make sure nothing gets in my way again but your stupid witch of a daughter just ha
Brittany was feeling feverish, a feeling that what she was doing wasn't good. However her urge to have Alex just to herself was even greater.“It's too bad we have to get separated in this way, Meg”. Evelyn whispered to Megan as she finally cocked her gun and pointed it at her.“Please, Megan begged weakly. I will go far away with my son and never return”. Jake was the only person she could think of at that moment. She needed to keep him away from harm.“It's too late darling, Evelyn sucked her lips showing false sympathy. You should have disappeared when you had the chance”. She said with a glint in her eyes.“Don't worry meg, Brittany is going to take care of him and Alex”. Evelyn pointed the gun at Megan, this time with the intent of pulling the trigger. She has said all that needed to be said. While Brittany watched with mixed feelings.Everything seemed to be in slow motion to Megan. The moment felt like an eternity. The air grew thick and heavy, pressing against her chest, maki
The fear in Megan's heart was sharp, her pulse quickening as Evelyn stood over her, gun in hand, her expression twisted with a mixture of anger and satisfaction.Brittany stood nearby, her posture tense, her face a mask of conflicting emotions. Megan could see the hesitation in her sister’s eyes, a flicker of uncertainty that was an opposite of the cold malice she had shown earlier. But there was no time to dwell on it. Not with Evelyn so close, her finger poised on the trigger.“Stay out of this, Brittany,” Evelyn snapped, her voice hard and cold. “You’re just as stupid as Sonia was, and that’s why she’s dead.”Evelyn’s words cut through the air like a knife, and Megan’s heart lurched. She looked at the woman closely, wondering if she'd just misheard. Did she just admit to knowing about her mother's death? “What do you know about my mother's death? Megan asked with a shaky voice. She watched as Evelyn struggled to maintain her composure, her hand shaking slightly as she pressed the
consciousness crept back into her mind. The pounding in her head was unbearable, a dull ache that intensified when she tried to open her eyes. “Damn," she hissed as the migraine hit her in full force. She felt like her head was splitting in half and she couldn't even help it. “Where am I?" She muttered as she turned. She blinked several times, trying to adjust to the dim light filtering through the room. It was then that the cold, hard reality hit her—she was tied tightly to a chair, her wrists and ankles bound with rough rope that dug into her skin.Panic surged through her, and she instinctively began to struggle against her restraints. The chair creaked under the force of her movements, but the ropes held firm. “Who is here! Help me!" She called out, wiggling. Panicked, she glanced around her, the memories of what had just happened assailed her. Someone had grabbed her from behind and she'd passed out with the pungent smell forced in her face. She'd been drugged and now she was
Megan shivered, she had a bad feeling that her sister, Brittany had done something crazy. Why else was she calling just when she couldn't find her son and then she was laughing like a psychopath. “Brittany?" She called out over the phone, standing in the living room and shivering in her shoes. “I guess you're home by now, because I know that you wouldn't have answered my call otherwise," she said with a casual tone. “Why are you calling?" Megan asked carefully. She had a bad feeling in her guts that Brittany's call wasn't just a coincidence. “You know why I'm calling, Megan, don't play dumb with me," Brittany replied with a stiff tone. Megan sighed, taking deep breaths to steady herself. She was already trembling and she couldn't find her voice. "Brittany, what is this about?” She asked, already losing her patience. The anxiety was killing her and clearly Brittany was trying to mess with her head. How on earth did she know that she'd just gotten home? And what did that have to do
Brittany stood in the doorway, a forced smile plastered on her face as she gazed at her nephew, Jake. She had a sly smile on her face. How lucky she was, as if everything in nature was just sending her a sign. Her mother's plan would work out smoothly. “Hey little boy," she said with a sugary tone. But Jake just looked up from his painting and gazed at her blankly without saying a word, his eyes almost bored. “Come on, won't you say hello to your aunty?" Brittany tried again with an even more sweet voice but inwardly she was rolling her eyes. “No," Jake gave a single monotonous reply and didn't bother explaining himself, he just picked up his crayons and continued stroking each color across his white paper. Brittany sneered as he turned his face away, he was indeed a miniature version of his mother, Megan, with the same piercing blue eyes and mischievous grin. It was almost like he was staring at Megan's younger self right there on the couch. "Oh, Jake, I'm sure you don't really
Brittany paced back and forth in the fancy little cafe. She couldn't help the anxiety and anger that she felt. The thought of them made her nauseous. “She is in there with him as we speak!" She said and drummed her fingers on the table again. Evelyn had a very calm look on her face. But then that was typical. She wasn't easily ruffled, she always had a plan for everything and that was exactly why her daughter trusted her to find a solution. “Calm down, Brittany, anger never solved anything, what you need to do is plan," she advised. Brittany was exasperated, she hissed, “Calm? How can I possibly be calm right now?" She asked, spreading her arms. “She is with my husband and he won't even allow me see him, he told me to stay out of his way." Smiling, Evelyn waved it all off like it didn't matter. “Come on, Alex is just licking his wounds. You should allow him to do that.” She replied. "I don't know how long that will last for and frankly I don't wish to find out. All I know is that
