"Sleep in your what?!" Tina asked, staring at Patrick in shock. She shivered and replied, "No, thank you, sir. I'm okay here, and I hope you don't mind me sleeping here on the couch. I can manage the couch."
Patrick smiled at Tina, admiring her from afar. He had tried to reach out to her in the past, all to no avail.
Luckily for him, Tina was with him in his house. Just facing her and staring at her beautiful face was enough for him.
Tina dozed off again, falling asleep on the couch while resting uncomfortably and shivering due to the cold weather.
Patrick allowed Tina to sleep first as he got engrossed watching television. After a while, he noticed that Tina had fallen into a deep sleep. He stood up and carried her to his bedroom. He could have opted for Tina to sleep in Sharon's room, but knowing how messy his lazy sister was, Patrick decided to take Tina to his own bedroom and gently placed her on his bed.
Staring at Tina's peaceful sleeping face, Patrick's right hand subconsciously trailed down her face and onto her cheek. He touched her pink lips and felt an intense urge to kiss her; she was the most beautiful young lady he had seen.
Patrick drew closer to Tina's face to steal a kiss from her pink lips, but just then, Tina stirred awake. Feeling his hard, calloused palm on her face made her cheek warm.
She stretched and slowly opened her eyes, only to see Patrick leaning in to kiss her. A wave of shock and anxiety washed over her as she immediately sprang up in bed, catching him almost kissing her.
"What are you trying to do?" Tina asked in shock, moving backward and away from him. She realized she had been on the couch in his parlor before.
Patrick was shocked and embarrassed, not knowing what had come over him, from admiring her pink lips to wanting to kiss her. He apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, I couldn't resist the urge to kiss you."
"Kiss me?" Tina's jaw dropped. She was dumbfounded by Patrick's response. Her sleepy eyes became fully awake, and she looked around the bedroom, wondering how she had ended up in his room. "Where am I?"
"You can sleep here," Patrick replied. "You weren’t very comfortable sleeping on the couch, and that’s why I brought you to my room."
"How?" Tina stared at Patrick in disbelief, immediately covering herself with the duvet.
She touched her pink lips to check if Patrick had kissed her. Patrick tried to explain himself, meeting her questioning gaze. She looked at him irritably, wanting to get down from his bed, but Patrick stopped her. "Wait."
"Let go of me!" Tina exclaimed, bursting into tears as she moved away from Patrick. She realized it was just the two of them in the house, growing worried as she didn’t want Patrick to touch her, making her even more scared.
"Please don't touch me," Tina begged, gripping tightly to the bedspread to cover herself properly.
Patrick frowned, wondering when he became a monster. He had self-control over other women, but with Tina, he lost it. He truly admired and wanted her.
Patrick was speechless, feeling a strong urge to claim Tina but not wanting to force himself on her.
He couldn't resist her; he could feel his phallus hardening in his shorts. He didn’t know if it was love for Tina or just plain lust, as she was very beautiful.
Tina became scared as she shifted backward against the bed, noticing the intense look of desire in Patrick's eyes. She begged him again, "Please, let me just sleep in the parlor. I'm okay there."
Tina wasn’t comfortable sharing a bed with Patrick. Patrick gulped and tried to control himself as he climbed onto the bed to approach her. His right hand reached out to touch her left hand, and he said to her, "I won't hurt you, okay?"
"No, please let me go," Tina replied, begging as she tried to move backward again. However, her body was halted by the bedframe and wall behind her, leaving her unable to escape, as Patrick approached her on the bed.
Patrick touched Tina's chin and turned her jaw to face him, caressing her jawline.
Tina gazed into his dark eyes, but before she could speak, Patrick leaned closer and kissed her hungrily. He sealed his lips passionately against hers, shocking her completely since Tina had never kissed a guy before.
Tina's body froze as Patrick's lips claimed hers, drawing her closer and kissing her more intensely, leaving her breathless as their lips finally separated.
Tina stared at Patrick with disbelief, unable to say a word.
She felt her heart pounding loudly in her chest as she looked at his handsome face.
Patrick approached her again and kissed her once more, reaching to tug at her gown. He couldn’t control himself.
Tina couldn't stop Patrick; her body betrayed her, and she found herself succumbing to his kisses. She kissed him back and allowed him to strip her gown.
Whatever Patrick was doing made her feel warm, and she didn’t want him to stop—not until she realized she was left bare with him.
Patrick moved away from Tina and stood up to strip off her clothes.
Tina stared at him in shock and shook her head, trying to stop him. But Patrick immediately approached her again on the bed, saying, "I promise I won't hurt you."
"No, please stop!" Tina tried to plead with Patrick. He gently stroked her thighs and kissed Tina more passionately before laying her gently on the bed.
He thrust into her, making love to her.
Tina groaned, but Patrick didn’t withdrew. He kept thrusting until he reached his climax, discharging all himself into her, before he finally calmed down, catching his breath.
"Get away from me!" Tina screamed, feeling the pain between her thighs. She groaned, as Patrick moved away from her.
Tina started crying, unable to believe that Patrick had slept with her despite her pleas.
She cried, and he apologized, "I'm sorry."
Patrick tried to touch Tina again, but she slapped his hands away as she cried through the night and into the morning. Neither she nor Patrick slept.
"I begged you to stop, but you refused! How could you?" Tina cried harder. Patrick became speechless, unable to fathom why he hadn’t stopped the previous night.
He could reject her nor control himself. He apologized again, "I'm sorry; please forgive me."
"Forgive you? No…" Tina smacked Patrick's arm off from confronting her and stood up from his bed.
She ran out from his bedroom, not caring that she was without clothes.
Patrick became worried as he slid out of bed to chase after her. Realizing he was without clothes, he ran back to the bathroom, quickly washed himself, and dressed before stepping out to chase after Tina.
Tina wanted to run out of Patrick's house like that, but, realizing she was without clothes, she rushed to the restroom where she had previously hung her wet clothes to dry.
She took them down and wore them despite still being wet.
She didn’t want to waste any more time in Patrick's house. Rushing out of the restroom, she left Patrick's house, running to the exit gate without waiting for day to break.
Tina sobbed, as she hurried to leave.
Patrick cursed himself for what he had done to Tina, as he quickly dressed in his bedroom.
He rushed out without looking back at his bed to see if it was stained. He couldn't control himself the previous night, no matter how hard he tried to stop.
Patrick knew he wasn’t drunk, yet he couldn't resist Tina. He thought about taking full responsibility for his actions as he ran out to catch-up with her.
Tina then reached the main exit gate. Before Patrick's gatekeeper could stop her and ask, "What's wrong?"
Tina unlocked the gate, running out of the premises and into the road as she sobbed, not caring which direction she was headed.
Patrick rushed to his car, knowing that Tina wouldn’t know her way back to her village. He screamed at his gatekeeper, "Open the gate!"
Patrick swiftly got into his car, ignited his engine and drove out of his house.
He spotted Tina walking down the wrong street that didn’t lead to her village.
Driving past her, Patrick parked in front of her, and rushed back to meet her.
Seeing that she wasn’t looking up, her gaze focused on the ground as she sobbed and walked away. He called out to her.
Tina did not look up at the road as she walked until she heard a familiar voice call her name: "Tina." She raised her head and saw Patrick standing in front of her.Bitter, angry, and filled with resentment, Tina wanted to run past him, but Patrick quickly caught her by the arm, pulling her back toward himself to stop her from running away. The day had fully broken, and Patrick didn't mind the passersby staring at them."I'm sorry," Patrick apologized softly as he pulled Tina closer into a hug. She sobbed against his chest, wanting to escape from him and hit his chest, trying to push him away."No. Come with me. Let me take you home to your village," Patrick said. He endured Tina hitting him on the chest as she cried, and some onlookers wondered who the romantic couple was at that early hour of the day.Tina finally calmed down and pulled away from Patrick after realizing she had been crying on his chest. Patrick still held Tina's hand tightly as he walked with her to his car. He fina
Sharon and Prisca entered Patrick's room, and it was Prisca’s first time stepping into his space. Sharon wasted no time pointing to the dried bloodstains on the bed as she walked toward the window to pull the curtains wide open for Prisca to see clearly. "Look!" she exclaimed."Oh my!" Prisca gasped as the reality of what she was seeing dawned on her. "No, it can't be true. It can't be possible.""It can't be what?" Sharon asked in disgust. "So your friend didn’t even have any self-control? As soon as we left the previous night, she came in here to my brother's room and slept with him, yet she pretends to be like a Holy Mary? Hmph!""No, Sharon," Prisca shook her head in disbelief. "I've known Tina for a long time. And Tina wouldn't just agree to sleep with your brother, not after rejecting Patrick’s proposal so many times. I thought your brother was a saint; I cannot believe this. Tina swore she would never sleep with anyone until she got married."Sharon became irritated by Prisca's
"Are you sure it’s Sharon's place or Sharon's brother's house?" Mama-Tina asked again, wanting to be certain. Tina shuddered and replied, "Sharon's place.""Hm… If it’s just Sharon's place, then why are your eyes so red? What happened, Tina? Did anyone touch you?" Mama-Tina asked worriedly as she moved closer to examine Tina, but Tina recoiled, staring downward."Tell me the truth, Tina. What happened?" Mama-Tina insisted. Tina shook her head, not wanting to reveal the truth. "Nothing happened, Mom," she replied.Tina thought to herself, [How can I tell my mother the truth: that Sharon's brother slept with me? No, I cannot do that. I can't break Mom's heart.] Tina remained silent.Mama-Tina sighed and replied, "Fine then, go inside and take your bath. I will be leaving soon with Jude for the market; I'm just waiting for him to finish his breakfast."Jude stepped out, having finished his meal. He smiled at Tina and turned to their mother as he walked down their front steps. Mama-Tina sp
When Prisca arrived at Tina's house gate, she stood and knocked heavily on the small gate, banging it so loudly while waiting impatiently for Tina to step out. She banged on the gate again with her fist.Tina woke up from her sleep, startled by the loud knocking on their main entrance, and she sprang up immediately from the bed. She rushed out to check who was there, remembering that she had locked the gate before going inside to sleep.As Tina approached the gate, she peered through the small opening and saw that it was Prisca knocking. This made her frown as she unlocked the small gate and pulled it open, peering at Prisca angrily.Even though her mother had warned her not to allow Prisca into their compound again, Tina still wanted to find out what Prisca actually wanted. She coldly asked, "What are you doing here, Prisca?"Tina crossed her arms over her chest as she stared at Prisca irritably. Prisca frowned and looked Tina up and down before asking, "What happened, Tina? I mean b
Sharon left the house earlier, and when she returned, she saw that Patrick was around with some of his business visitors who had arrived at his home. Some were his close friends, and they were discussing and laughing."Good evening, everyone," Sharon greeted them as she walked past, heading to her room. Patrick didn’t have the chance to ask her where she had gone the previous night nor where she was coming from; he let it slide because he wasn’t in the mood to confront her.After seeing off his friends and business partners, Patrick decided to sleep in his room. Just as he stepped into the parlor and walked down the corridor leading to their rooms, Sharon stepped out and stopped him."Brother, what happened between you and Tina the previous night while I was away?" Sharon asked. Patrick paused but remained silent as he turned to face Sharon. She continued, "Well, I just want to know what happened between you and that yellow wench.""Yellow wench?" Patrick frowned at her, meeting her
Over the following two weeks, Tina's health symptoms worsened, from throwing up early in the morning to becoming too lazy to do anything. The worst was falling asleep at any given moment. Mama-Tina noticed Tina's changes and approached her as she was vomiting one fateful morning. She asked Tina, "What's wrong with you, Tina? Are you still sick?"Mama-Tina asked worriedly as she touched Tina's forehead to check her body temperature, gasping as she felt Tina's body was very hot. Mama-Tina rushed to a nearby pharmacy to get some medicine for Tina, but still, after some days, Tina became more sick, and her mother had no other option but to take Tina to the hospital. The doctor ran a test on Tina and later confirmed to Mama-Tina that Tina was pregnant."What?! Doctor! What did you just say?" Mama-Tina asked in disbelief. "How can my daughter be pregnant?"Mama-Tina started crying, not expecting Tina to become pregnant at such an important stage in her life. She screamed, "Tina has finish
Patrick drove to Mr. Bright's mansion in his Mercedes-Benz, and he was welcomed by Mr. Bright, his wife, and their children as Mr. Bright ushered Patrick into their living room. Mr. Bright introduced his wife and daughters to Patrick, and afterward, they proceeded to the dining area to have their dinner.While they were eating at the dining table, one of Mr. Bright's daughters, Anita Bright, was smiling and shining her beautiful brown eyes at Patrick. After dinner ended, Patrick thanked them all as he stood up to leave, but Anita asked her father for permission to escort Patrick outside to his car, which was parked in their garage, while the rest of the family sat back in the living room and watched television.Anita used the opportunity to introduce herself to Patrick as they walked to the garage where Patrick's car was parked in her father's compound. She said, "Hi, I'm Anita Bright; I guess you're Patrick Scott, right?" Anita smiled brightly at Patrick, and he smiled back at her an
Tina remembered her father had left them since Jude was a baby, saying he was tired of their mother, and he left with another woman who was controlling him then. Tina sighed as she waited for her mother to step out, and she asked, "What happened, Mom? When did Dad return?""Hmm." Mama-Tina first sighed as she sat back with Tina."He came back with the lady he had previously run away with. I should've been back before now, but the elders were trying to settle the lady, as she refused to leave without your father following her back to the city. She claimed your father wanted to abandon her now that she was getting older. And your father claimed she hadn't given him any children in all those years he had been living with her and sleeping with her, so he couldn't continue with her, and he returned to us.""And you accepted?" Tina asked, but her mother sighed and shook her head.Mama-Tina was happy to see her grandson already grown, as he really looked cute and chubby. She asked Tina, "Am
Mella rushed and drove back to the police station, as Chris was already released, and asked to sign the undertaking papers, saying that he would never do anything to Tina or Patrick again, and he sighed the undertaking note.After Chris was through signing and was giving his clothes and shoes to wear, as the police officers had seized his clothes on the day he was arrested, he just returned back from work and hadn't even gone inside to change his office clothes because he was speaking to Tina before he was arrested.Chris collected his clothes and wore them, then he set to leave for home, as he wondered who granted him bail, as he was earlier told in the morning that he was going to court the new week.Chris brother Evan was called by the police officer who informed him about Chris being released from their station, and his brother prepared to go to the police station with Chris Car to welcome Chris, as he knew how to drive, so he decided to use Chris car to pickup Chris and bring him
Finally, it was Mella's turn to see Patrick, as Mella had waited for almost four hours before it got to her turn, as it was already noon.Mella was led to Patrick's office by an assistant who came out to escort her. And the assistance could tell Mella was a big man's daughter from her prestigious look, as Mella loved putting on suits that exposed her full cleavages, and she liked attracting men's attention to herself.So Mella could tell the assistance that came to escort her was admiring her beautiful look and bossom, as her suit perfectly hugged tightly to her body and brought out her sexy shape."Welcome, ma'am. You may go in now to Patrick in his office," Dave said to Mella."You don't need to knock again; just step Dave said, and Mella replied,"Ooh! Thanks."Mella winked at Dave. As it was part of her lifestyle to wink at people as a form of appreciating them, she gently opened the door, pushing it open, and she walked in.Patrick sat in his executive office seat and was facing t
Mella was happy to know that Chris still liked her, as she had thought that probably if she opened up her true feelings to Chris, he would reject her. And she thanked Evan for telling her the whole story and drove back home.Mella planned on visiting Patrick in his office during working days, as she didn't know his house except for his company, and she has heard a lot about Patrick and seen him on trending hot male celebrities in City A who have money and aren't yet married.Mella sighed as she wondered if Patrick would forgive Chris on her behalf and grant him bail too, or better yet, end the case.Mella decided to visit her family house first to rest over the weekend, so she wouldn't worry much about Chris being in the police cell.Her family lived in the heart of City A too, as her father was a billionaire, so she decided to pay her father a surprise visit, as she hadn't seen him to thank him properly for assigning her as the new CEO.Arriving at her father's mansion, Mella went to
Evan calmed down and said, "Fine, I will explain the situation better to you, for you to understand what I meant." Then he paused and looked at Mella's face, and he continued,"My brother is in love with the same lady, Mr. Patrick, whom his friend is also in love with. My brother and her have been in a relationship for up to a year now, and I am only just getting to realize from the police station that the said lady already has a child for Mr. Patrick before she met my brother, and Chris knew about this and still wants her even though she has a child for Patrick.""What!" Mella exclaimed as she stared at Evan in disbelief."Honestly, the situation at hand now is that my brother kidnapped her from the village and brought her here to live with him in the city, even with her son, and that was why Patrick arrested him. Because the said lady and his son had been declared missing by the lady's parents in the village," Evan said."Hmph..." Mella sighed with a deep frown settled on her face."
Patrick helped Tina strip her of her clothes, leaving only her pants and bra. As the dim lights were still brightly on in his room, he could clearly see her body.Tina didn't seem to have lost too much weight, but she already forgot that her stomach had grown out a little over the past few weeks of staying at Chris house, as her protruding stomach was now visibly showing that she was pregnant.Tina was shy, as was standing to Patrick's view, and she didn't want to turn around for Patrick to see her stomach or to face him either.She already brought her medicine with her, and the pregnancy test result was in it, but she didn't even remember all that when she was in Patrick's car, except now that she was with Patrick in his bedroom.Patrick pulled Tina closer to himself as he had already pulled off his top and was now slightly bare with Tina, with his bare chest facing her.He pulled off his trousers and was left in only his shorts, as he wanted to help Tina take her bath. Then he unhook
Mama-Tina continued speaking to Tina on the phone, and she said, "It's okay, my daughter. I'm just happy that you are found. I hope nothing happened to you and Godsent?" Mama-Tina sounded a bit worried, and Tina replied,"No, mama, we are fine. We will soon come home to see you and Papa. How're Papa, Richmond, and Jude doing?.""They are all fine, Tina, and I am also happy to hear that you were found. Take good care of yourself, and please give the phone back to my in-law."Tina sighed as she heard her mother call Patrick her in-law, while she gave Patrick back his phone and continued feeding her son, as she didn't have the appetite or strength to eat much before, not after all the things that Chris had said to her, but now she felt better and could feed her son.Tina wanted to leave Chris house immediately, so she went in and packed only her things that she used to bring with her the first time Chris brought her from the village, leaving all the things behind that Chris had bought for
"Freeze! don't move!" The police officers ordered Chris to stand up. And Chris was so shocked as he stared at the police officers, wondering what was going on in his home."We're from City A, Police Command, and you are Mr. Chris Douglass. You are under arrest for the kidnapping of one Miss Tina Praise and her son, Godsent, so you have the legal right to remain silent as anything you say shall be used against you in the court of law." The police officer said all in one go to Chris, and Chris stared at him in shock. As he was speechless, he wondered who could've found out that he was the one responsible for Tina's disappearance. Chris thought the last time he had visited Patrick, he never told Patrick anything to make Patrick suspicious of him, and he was still wondering who fished him out as the villain behind the mask and got him arrested.Just then, Patrick walked in just as the police officer handcuffed Chris and wanted to drag Chris out. Patrick stared at Chris with dagger eyes,
Tina stared at Chris in shock. She couldn't believe her ears and thought she was so stupid to think Chris wouldn't know who Patrick was.She never thought of this at first, as she knew Chris was from the same village as Patrick, and Patrick was also well known even in the city. Only by searching his name on the internet did she see him, so how would Chris not know so much about Patrick too?Tina stared downward, as she couldn't meet Chris again. So Chris was even friends with Patrick and close to Patrick; why didn't he tell her all these years?.Chris knew Patrick well and knew everything about her, and as he watched Patrick tell him how he made love to her and how she was craving his touch, Tina felt disgusted as to how some men could boldly tell their friends about their sexual lives.She couldn't even tell her best friend or her mother, as she couldn't discuss something as private as that with anyone."So was that why you brought me here to the city, out of jealousy?" Tina suddenly
Mama-Tina couldn't believe her ears when Patrick told her that he knew Chris well, as Chris was his boss's friend.Mama-Tina was speechless even more when Patrick also said that Chris even visited him last week before he traveled home, and she became worried."What if he is not the one who took Tina away?" Mama-Tina asked Patrick, getting more worried. As she assumed, if truly Chris came to visit Patrick and Patrick told him that his girlfriend and child were missing, then that means Chris wasn't the one behind Tina and Godsent's disappearance.Patrick stared at Mama Tina, and he gave her back her phone and said,"Mama, if Chris is not the one behind Tina and Godsent's disappearance, then we will find out. Don't call his number, as I already left my village and I cannot drive back there to go check in his family house, to know if he took Tina there, but I will go to check his house in the city, even if it means me arresting him. As he can't take Tina away and take my son away too, it c
