Jenny climbed out of the car and slammed the door behind her heavily. Her face was squeezed together in an angry form as she stomped towards the mansion. Without knocking the door, she pushed it open and stormed in. Glancing around the living room, she realized that the man she was looking for wasn't there. So, she opened her mouth and yelled, "Derek! Derek Hale! Derek! You better come down this instant." She paused, breathing heavily as she strained her hear, trying to know if he heard her. Unable to hear anything, she screamed at the top of her lungs, "Derek!"

"Jenny?" When she turned, she saw the old man walking down the stairs, a little too agile for his age. He had his fingers wrapped around a glass of wine and a small smile on his face. "I had no idea you were going to come here," he said as he walked towards her.

Jenny glared at him. "I had no idea I was coming here either. It was an impromptu decision."

"What do you want, babe?"

"Don't 'babe' me," she snapped. "I'm not here

    After spending some time at Derek's house, Jenny decided to go visit Jayden. It hadn't been a long time that she had seen Jayden though. She always frequented his house and they basically spent all their time having sex. But contrary what she told Derek, Jayden wasn't her boyfriend. They weren't even friends with benefits. They were simply sex buddies and oh, how she wished they could be more but Jayden was never up for that. Jenny loved Jayden.... At least that was how she thought she felt. She loved him and she just wished he wouldn't be so hung up over Diane all the freaking time. She wished he would open himself up to her the more. She wished he could see how much she loved him and wanted to be more than just sex buddies. She wanted a relationship with him. But he was too busy swooning over Diane. She packed in front of his house and walked to the door. She knocked on it at first and waited for him to open the door. When he did, he looked surprised to see her. "Oh, hey, Jenny. I

    The alarm clock rang and Diane rolled away from Nicholas' body, a smile on her face as she looked up at him. "Hey," she murmured and he grinned, leaning down to give her a kiss on her forehead. She smiled. "I need to prepare for work," she told him, sitting up. "Can't you take today off?" he asked. "We just moved in together. We should spend the day together.""Really, Nicholas?" she chuckled. "If you really want us to spend a whole day together, then prepare a honeymoon trip for us."His face lit up. "You are right. I should definitely do that."Diane gave a small laugh and kissed him on the cheek. "You should prepare for work too, Nick," she said as she grabbed her towel from where to was hanging. She walked into the bathroom as she shouted after him, "And make sure you are out of that bed before I return!"---------------------By the time it was seven in the morning, Diane had finished cleaning up and she had worn her outfit of a pair of black pants and a blazer and a pair of pum

    Jenny sat alone at an empty booth, waiting for Ashley. She had arrived here minutes ago and had invited Ashley over. The restaurant was almost empty and she liked it that way. It fitted her somber mood. Yesterday, she found out that Ja yden had gone to see Diane. Yes, she was stalking him. And it had hurt her so bad. Even after everything she said, after everything she told him, he still went to see her. He still loved her. In a bid of jealousy and in the need to ruin things, Jenny took a shot of them biding each other goodbye. Jayden had leaned closer to kiss Diane's cheek and she seized the moment, took a picture and sent it to Nicholas. She didn't know what Nicholas had done with the picture. All she knew was that it could ruin whatever relationship he had with Diane...... but not for too long. Even Jenny knew she couldn't ruin their relationship... or marriage for too long. She had tried in the past and... well, it was never successful.As Jenny waited for Ashley to arrive, she he

    It was a Saturday morning and Diane was feeling particularly lazy. She woke up very late, around ten in the morning, took her precious time in taking her bath before going downstairs to get her breakfast. As she walked down the stairs, she saw her husband, Nicholas sitting by the table, eating. He raised his head, their gazes met and they both looked away immediately. For some days now, neither Nicholas or Diane had been talking to each other. Diane was still mad at Nicholas for calling her a cheat and Nicholas was mad that she ditched him for Jayden, and then, lied to him. Neither of them really spoke to each other except in monosyllables and in really frosty and icy tone. It wasn't like they didn't miss each other. In fact, on the contrary, they both missed each other so much. They practically ached for each other. But they were both too proud too admit it. So, Diane walked to the table, motioning to one of the servants to bring her food. She refused to look at Nicholas, not wanti

    It was her first act of rebellion and Natasha wasn't sure how she felt. She had walked out of the house against Diane's wish, she had lashed out at both Diane and Nicholas and well, now she didn't know what to do. She was going out with her friends Alyssa and Paul. Paul wasn't just a friend, he was the love of her life.... At least that was what she felt. She had been in love with him since he came to their school. He was so dashingly handsome and so nice and sweet. Natasha couldn't help falling head over heels for him. Unfortunately for her, he simply saw her as a friend and nothing more. He was extremely nice and sweet to her of course, but only because he thought of her as his best friend. She was his closest friend and they told each other everything but he was always to oblivious to the fact that Natasha was in love with him. Always. Alyssa always thought that Natasha's reluctance to tell Paul of her feelings were just stupid. She even went as far as telling Natasha that Paul was

    Sunday evening and Mark and Grace were at Nicholas' house, ready to pick up their daughter, Olivia. They had arrived in the afternoon around two o'clock and Diane has insisted that they stayed for lunch. She had instructed the kitchen staff to prepare food for visitors and Mark and Grace were glad to stay. They sat at the table, Mark and Grace beside each other and across Diane and Nicholas who were at the other side of the table. Olivia sat beside Diane, insisting that she didn't want to sit with anybody else. As they ate, they chatted and laughed. "Diane, thank you very much for looking after Livy," Grace said with a grateful smile. "Oh, pfft, it's nothing," Diane answered in a jovial tone. She liked Grace. Grace was kind and warm and just lovely. "It was really lovely to have her here," She said, glancing down at Olivia with a loving look on her face. "She's a special kid.""Yeah, she is, isn't she," Mark concurred as he looked at his daughter with pride. "But still, we love tha

    Jenny opened the door to Derek's house and walked in with Ashley behind her. While she sat down, Ashley remained standing, looking around with wide house. "Wow," she said. "This house is big and beautiful. I had no idea Jayden's father had so much money.""Of course, he does. He has quite a number of businesses," jenny told her. What she didn't tell her was that one of those businesses was a gang; a gang that she – Jenny was a part of. "Wow. So, why does Jayden leave in that.... Small apartment?" Ashley asked."I don't know, Ash. Sit down. Do you want a drink?" Jenny asked, rising to her feet and walking to the bar. "Yes please," Ash answered as she lowered herself to one of the couches, still looking around. "I can see why you are sleeping with his father, though," Ashley said. "This place looks like he is really wealthy."Jenny smirked. She knew that Ashley would say that. "Of course, he is wealthy," She said as she poured alcohol into two separate glasses. "But that's not why, tr

    Natasha was more than excited to skip school and follow Diane to pick up Malvika from the airport. After the incident at the movies with Paul and his new girlfriend, it was becoming increasingly difficult for Natasha to enjoy school. Every time she walked into the school, the first thing she saw was Paul and his girlfriend sucking each other's faces of. It annoyed her and saddened her. So, when Diane asked her to accompany her to the airport, she didn't hesitate to agree. As soon as they got to the airport, they saw Malvika standing in a secluded area. Diane and Natasha climbed out of the car and waved her over. As they moved closer to Malvika, Diane couldn't help but notice that something was wrong with her. Her eyes were dull, there were bags under them, her skin was looked dry and wrinkled. Diane's eyes wandered downwards. And is that.... A baby bump? "Hey," Malvika said. Even her voice sounded off. "Malvika!" Natasha shrieked, throwing herself into Malvika who quickly grabbed h

    Diane stood in front of the bathroom mirror, her heart thumping wildly, her hands shaking as she unwrapped the pregnancy test packet. She lowered herself into the toilet seat, raising up her dress and pulling down her panties. Closing her eyes, she placed the pregnancy test instrument beneath and let the urine flow on it and into the toilet. Then, she placed it back on the counter and waited. Just a year ago, and some months after Diane’s kidnap, Malvika delivered her baby boy in an hospital and just as she had promised, she gave that baby to Diane and Nicholas. The baby was named Cameron Alan Langston. Some months after birthing her child, Malvika left as she had said she would and took off for Florida to continue her life despite pleas from her sisters – Natasha and Diane. Diane had been raising Cam for a year and she was enjoying every moment of it. But recently she had begun to feel feverish – vomiting all over the house. No food could stay in her belly. At first she thought it wa

    A slight sound of movement outside made Diane open her eyes. The entire room was still dark as there was no space for illumination. Her hands and feet were still bound together. Her neck hurt from having bending them in one position for a very long time. The mosquitoes in the room kept biting her and the notes were painful. She had been unable to sleep for a while even with her eyes closed, so when she heard movement in front of the door, her eyes flew open. She fixed her gaze on the door, sensing movements behind it. Her heartbeat increased in fear as she was unable to tear her gaze away from the door. Her fear heightened when someone started to bang something on the door. She began to struggle with her chains, unable to move. “Help!” she yelled. “Somebody, help me!” But the banging increased, until the door was pushed open. She opened her mouth and let out a loud scream when she saw the uniformed men armed to the bones barging in, “Ahhhhhhh…….” “Ma'am, please you can calm down,” On

    "Ashley?!" Nicholas exclaimed. Ashley glanced up, her eyes grief and fear stricken. She pushed at the hair that were sticking to her face because of the tears. "Nicholas," she gasped behind her cuffed hands. "Oh my God, Nicholas you are here. I missed you!" She cried. "What are you doing here, Ashley?" Nicholas asked, still shocked and confused. "How....how did you get here?" "I....I was arrested," she mumbled. "For what? How? What did you do?" He threw a series of questions at her, all of which she did not answer. He stared at her, a small frown on his face as something finally clicked. "The cops said they arrested a couple of people who turned out to be a gang. They got an address from these guys and when they got there they found.....you?" He was shocked.....and although he was able to piece it together, he was still very much confused. "I'm sorry," Ashley whispered. "For?" "What happened," she cried. "I....I didn't know at first. She didn't tell me we were going to kill her

    Diane slowly opened her eyes. She let out a soft groan of pain as she tried to adjust herself on the ground. Her hands kept pulling against the cuffs. She glances around, shuffling her legs. The entire room was dark, except for the ray of light coming in beneath the door. She had spent almost two days in this hell hole that Jenny and Derek had locked her up in. Just yesterday, one of Jenny's goons had placed a call to her family, demanding a ransom. Diane let out a pant. She was feeling hungry and thirsty. Not only that, her entire body was in serious pains. Her body ached to the marrow and she had this massive headache that forced her to wince from time to time. She could not wait to get out of here, yet she had no idea how she would get out. The doors and windows were locked, her hands and feet were handcuffed and there was absolutely no way that she could free herself. Her best and only option was to wait for Nicholas to pay the ransom so she could be released. Just then, the door

    “Hey,” Malvika said as she walked down the stairs tiredly. Natasha was sprawled on the couch, tired from her constant crying. Her eyes were red and her cheeks looked swollen. Malvika walked towards her and sat beside her. “Hey, are you still crying?” She asked, looking around the living room. She saw Nicholas standing by the door, talking lowly to someone on the phone. “I’m too tired to cry,” Natasha answered weakly. Her weeping had seeped out every of her energy. She pulled herself to sit up. “What do you think happened to her? She said she was going out and all of a sudden, we couldn’t find her. How did that happen?” “Okay, I need you to calm down,” Malvika said. “The cops are doing everything they can and Nicholas and I are trying our hardest best to find her. We are going to find her, okay?” Malvika tried to reassure her younger sister. She sounded sure of herself, but deep down, her insides crawled with doubt and fear. What if they were never able to find her? Was she so sure th

    “Yeah, I don’t think that’s going to be possible,” Jenny says into her phone, pulling the cigarette away from her lips and blowing out a puff of smoke. She was seated on the chair, her legs crossed out in front of her as she listened to her brother ask her to come to the house. “Nick, I really appreciate the invite, but I’m sorry, I’m not going to be able to make it. And by the way, I’m really sorry about Diane.” After a while, she hung up and threw the phone on the table, letting out a sigh. “Nicholas?” Ashley asked as she flipped through a magazine. She glanced up at Jenny, raising her brow. “Yeah.” Jenny let out an exaggerated sigh. “He wants me to come over today,” she said, rolling her eyes. “I’m not going though. I’m in the middle of something,” she said, blowing out a ring of smoke while Ashley chuckled. “Why can’t we go, though?” “We?” Jenny raised a brow? “Who’s we?” she asked. “You and I of course.” “Okay cute, but he didn’t invite both of us. He invited me, his sister.

    Malvika sat in front of the car with Nicholas, her nose pressed on to the window as she was deep in thoughts. Beside her, Nicholas drove as carefully as he could, the both of them thinking about Diane. He was driving her to the restaurant where Diane’s cat was found. She had an inkling of what the restaurant was or who might be behind the kidnap but she needed to confirm it first.“What are you thinking about?” Nicholas asked, breaking the silence.She pursed her lips, turning to look at him. Then, she answers, “I might know who could be Diane’s disappearance,” she answered, slowly and carefully, watching his face for any reaction.He darted a surprised glance in her direction. “Really? Who?”“You are not going to be happy about this,” Malvika answerez. She paused, before finally saying, “Jenny.”“What?!” Nicholas sharply pulled the brake of the car in shock, halting it. A loud honk resonated behind them as a car drove angrily past them. “Sorry!” Nicholas called out, before turning ba

    “Any news?” Natasha asked as she descended the stairs with Alyssa behind her. Her eyes were red from tears and she rubbed her cheeks to clean them off. Malvika and Grace were seated on the couch in the living room. Olivia was spread across Grace’s leg, sleeping peacefully. They had all stayed in the living room, waiting to here from Diane but heard nothing.Malvika shook her head. “No. Mark and Nick went to the station this morning,” she said.Natasha sighed, slumping on the chair. Alyssa sat down quietly beside her. “But where did she go?”“No one knows.”“She told me she wanted to receive a phone call,” Grace informed them, rubbing her hands slowly round her daughter, Olivia’s back. “That was all. I didn’t see her again.”“Her car isn’t in the garage,” Malvika said. “So, she went with her car.”“But someone must have seen her leave.”Malvika sighed. “We didn’t and we don’t even know who to ask. Hopefully, Mark and Nicholas will come back with good news.”The four of them sat in the

    A groan slipped out of Diane’s mouth. Her left leg moved a bit as she struggled to straighten her shoulders. She subconsciously tugged her hands, sensing that they were in some sort of bondage. She let out another groan, this time fluttering her eyes open slowly. Her hazy sight was, however, met with darkness. She blinked twice, glancing around but her gaze met nothing but darkness.What happened? She wondered, squeezing her eyes shut as she tried to remember what happened the night before. With her eyes still shut, an image of her standing in the living room reading Ashley’s text message. She remembered leaving the house and going to a restaurant that looked deserted and out of business. She remembered thinking she would find Ashley there. And she remembered someone hitting her head. The last thing she remembered was blacking out.Oh God.Was she kidnapped? She was kidnapped! They freaking kidnapped her!Did that happen to Ashley too? Maybe that was why she was texting her.
