My eyes grew double or should I say triple their normal size as I stared into the room rooted to a spot, it was as if a bucket of ice was poured over my head. Right on the bed was a naked blonde splayed sideways on the bed with her ass hanging in the air and Henry standing right behind her ramming his cock right into her with his hand on her waist making her arch her back ever lower. The clothes I gathered from the living room fell from my hand unconsciously.“Henry!!!!”I screamed at the top of my voice making him jump off the girl in shock, the action sent the girl flying to the other side of the bed as she tried to gather sheets to cover herself up.Henry looked at me with guilt in his eyes, he quickly picked up a boxer as I turned to leave, I barely got to the door before Henry ran toward me and grabbed my arm“Babe, listen I can explain this,” he said hastilyMy mouth fell open at what he said how can he possibly explain what I just saw?“You can explain??”I yell out “Then fucking go ahead and explain what your goddamn dick is doing in another woman’s pussy”“ Babe it’s really not what you think… it’s just nothing you know… I love you” I just kept staring at him wondering what exactly he took me for.“You love me” I scoffed lowly and he nodded“ you love me?” I yelled out making him jump back. Was he really thinking I was buying his bullshit?.“ Anna I swear it’s not what you think… calm down babe,” he said trying to touch my arm but I smacked it off and turned around, and walked to the door. I felt him hug me from behind as I held the doorknob muttering stupid explainanatons, I immediately pushed him away and hit him across his face as I yelled“Don’t fucking touch me”He held the spot I hit me and looked me straight in the eye, he wasn’t being apologetic anymore as he took a few steps toward me, wait was he seriously glaring at me right now?“Yes I cheated on you … oh scratch that I have been cheating on you all this while”“What?” I yelledHe laughed a bit before standing in front of me “You’re boring Anna, sex with you is boring, you just lay down there and I do all the work, you’ve never pleasured me properly so you deserve it” My eyes grew wide in shock as I stared at him with tears threatening to flow out.“How dare you, Henry??” I yelled again but he started laughing like any of this was funny.“You really do think highly of yourself right, dressing pretty and going on dates isn’t what a relationship is about bitch” he yelled out.“I try my best to put up with you but you're always ungrateful, complaining about shit”“See that girl in there, is a sex goddess, very beautiful and can do what you can never do” I stared at him wide-eyed not knowing what to say to this son of a bitch.“well then enjoy your whore you bastard” I spat at himI turned around, picked up my purse, and left his apartment immediately. I almost tripped on the stairs that led to the parking space. The tears were now falling freely as I didn’t bother to stop them. Not that I could stop them though.I got to my car and drove out crying like a baby, my heart felt like it’s been ripped into pieces as I drove down the road like a maniac.I loved Henry with everything I’ve got, he was my first boyfriend, my first kiss, my first sex, the first person I ever gave my heart to, the hot tears flowed harder as I thought about all the time I’ve been with Henry.I brought out my phone and dialed Josie’s number, my best friend is the only person I could turn to right now and my life feels like a mess. First I got to know I would be getting engaged to a total stranger tomorrow and now the man I love is been cheating on me remorselessly and called me boring for not whoring around. She picked at the third ring.“Hey girl,” she said slurry and I sniffed a tear“Josie…?” I sounded like a mess even tho I was trying hard not to.“Anna what’s up” her voice Changed to a worried zone immediately. This made the tears I was controlling come rushing back down.“It's this about your Dad again?”“ No… Part of it though” I replied.“ hey Anna, what happened… Where the hell are you am coming there right now” she said frantically.“ Am in the middle of the city right now Josie my life is a mess” I choked out.“ Are you driving right now?” she asked“Yes,” I said“ Okay, just park somewhere safe and text me the address, I will be there in a jiffy” I heard something click and knew she was getting her car key. I dropped the call and tucked my phone inside my purse. Just like on cue, I heard a blaring car horn and looked up to see a headlight flashing directly at me, the car was a few inches from me, and the driver quickly turned to the other side of the road but it was already too late, the sides of my poor Nissan hit his extremely luxurious car, I couldn't fathom the type of car it is but it was clearly worth millions of dollars.Fear gripped me as a man got out of the car, where do I get I get money to maintain this car if he asks for it? More tears dripped down my face as I came out of my car with trembling hands, too many tragedies for one night.“I’m sorry, please I really am” I said as I sobbed uncontrollably. Surprisingly the young man was not yelling or fuming in anger, he was just staring at me with a confused look.“It's okay,” he said“Really?” I asked surprised, I mean who wouldn’t mind that I scratched their car“ yeah sure, it was my fault too… I wasn’t paying attention” he said. I was about to thank him when his phone rang, he looked at the screen before turning to me “ I got to go, are you okay tho?”I nodded before he took the call and walked to his car, he didn’t even bother to check the damage… what a gentleman I thought.Related chapters

We are currently at a club owned by Dave, our friend, the three of us have been friends since college, Dave decided to open the club after college while I of course took over my family’s company or should I say made a puppet to do whatever my mother wanted.

Oh my goodness.I blinked my eyes blinked a few times to adjust to the light in my surroundings before finally opening them and wow! I have no idea where the hell I was with this annoying sun ray poking its way through the large windows right to my eyes. I try to sit up but felt a sore sensation between my legs, a slight pain shot through me stopping my movements immediately, and that was when I noticed a huge body right next to me. What the hell happened last night? I carefully moved to the side of the king-sized bed and sat up.Looking around the unfamiliar room, memories of last night’s incident came rushing to my brain in flashes. My eyes widened , how drunk did I get? Embarrassment swept over me immediately. I got out of bed carefully not to wake him, I don’t think I can stand any more embarrassment if he woke up to see me, damn it’d be so awkward. I tiptoe around the room gathering up my things and dressing up only to find my panties shredded, gosh how drunk was I, and what the

“Whoosh! Babe, I can’t believe you’re getting married already” Josie exclaimed “It’s engagement Josie” I corrected her for the up tent time since we started dressing for this crazy party.“Aye aye, captain. But an engagement is an announcement of marriage” she said “ Josie, why do I feel like you’re excited about this?” I asked raising my eyebrows at her “Of course I am, you are getting married, I’ve always dreamt of being your bridesmaid and walking with you in your wedding dress” she cheered with a wide smile leaving my jaws dropped “Josie, did you forget that all of this is just an arrangement for me to pay for my father’s reckless ways?” I asked the happy cheery in front of me“Of course not, Anna, but look at this the brighter way, your husband-to-be might turn out to be a really handsome dude,” she said dreamily making me laugh“Which handsome dude will want a bought wife? He’s probably some huggo at 40” I said dismissively “ oh no! I don’t wanna imagine that for you” We bo

“you?” I yelled out in alter shocked the moment I saw the face of my soon-to-be husband. “Do you two know each other?” His mother asked in surprise.Everyone at the table kept on looking between him and I expectantly waiting for an answer.How do I explain to all of them that the man I would be getting married to soon is the same guy I hooked up with yesterday night because I was upset about this same marriage and the betrayal of my boyfriend? However, lying about not knowing wouldn’t get me off the hook with the way both of us reacted.“Annabella?” His mother called “Yes ma’am, we do know each other” I blurted out “Please forgive her for any mistakes she might have made Mr. Howard” my dad pleaded with the young man “Dad!”I yelled, how can he jump to such conclusions? He didn’t even know how we knew each other and he’s apologizing for my mistake. How desperate is this man exactly?“I met her yesterday night…” My heart dropped a second, don’t tell me this man here is about to tell

9AnnaThe grand ballroom buzzed with celebration, but my heart echoed a different tune. Feeling stifled, I slipped away, finding refuge by a moonlit fountain. Tears flowed freely, a silent release for the turmoil within."I can't handle this," I murmured into the night, my voice strained with emotion. "Marriage now? I can't. There's so much still to achieve the company. I had hopes, you know? Hopes they'd get it, that they'd wait until at least a while before the wedding."I heard footsteps come from behind me, I quickly wiped my tears away. Josie appeared, She settled beside me."Hey Anna, you don't look so good" she said. I was trying so hard to hold my tears. "I don't feel good Jo. Like not at all. I feel… ugh I don't even know the word""Annabel, it's fine," Josie reassured softly. "You don't have to go through with it if it's not what you want. Your dreams matter."Yet, my heart still throbbed. "Josie, he thinks I'm... he sees me as a whore. How can I marry someone who thinks

Anna"Ugh, he is insufferable and annoying. I hope he gets hit by a bus," I muttered to myself, still seething from the fountain encounter with Davis. In front of the bathroom mirror, I angrily dried myself off and patted my wet hair, annoyance etched across my face. There was no way I could bear the rest of the night in this state. I needed to go home.As I decided to leave the bathroom, I accidentally bumped into someone. Strong hands caught me before I could stumble, and a voice with a touch of humor said, "Well, hello."I pushed back, offering an apologetic smile. "Sorry. Clumsy me."The stranger in front of me had an easygoing demeanor, with dark, wavy hair and a charming smile that hinted at mischief. "No harm done. I'm Alex.""Annabella," I replied, introducing myself. "But my friends call me Anna or Bell."As we exchanged named, a voice from behind me cut through the moment. "Oh, so you're friends now. I guess we aren't, since I shall call you your full name, Annabel."I tur

11AnneWedding preparations were chaotic, anticipation filling the air. Mrs. Howard, set on orchestrating the perfect event, immersed herself in selecting the ideal location. Everyone seemed swept up in ensuring every detail was flawlessly arranged, except me.As the day approached, I found myself entangled in a web of decisions—decisions made for me. Bridesmaids' dresses, floral arrangements, ceremony details—all unfolded without my input. The illusion of choice made me feel like a mere pawn in a grand production.Now, at the wedding dress fitting, I stood before the mirror, twirling hesitantly. "Do we really have to go through with this?" I questioned, uncertainty lacing my words.Josie, my ever-supportive friend, adjusted a strand of my hair and sighed. "Anna, it's your wedding day. We have to do this."I frowned, the weight of the situation pressing down on me. "But do we have to do it this way? Everything feels so... forced."Josie gave me a sympathetic look. "I know it's not th

12DavisAnnabel let out a huge scream, "What? Why do I have to stay on the couch?"I calmly unfastened my wristwatch, placing it on the sleek coffee table. "Because it's my home, and I make the decisions."As I prepared to head into my room, Annabel intercepted, her tone challenging, "Do you have another room or not?"I paused, meeting her gaze. "Well, I do, but it's occupied. Tomorrow it will get cleared out, and I guess you can stay there."" Ugh fine, I will stay on the couch. How annoying" she said taking off earrings and dropping it on the table beside the chair. "And another thing," Annabel quipped, "I need to bathe."I raised an eyebrow, feigning surprise. "Three bathrooms, pick one. Just stay away from my master's bedroom."Her eyes narrowed playfully, a mischievous glint in them. "Even when we... you know, you didn't take me there either.."I chuckled, unable to resist the opportunity to banter. "Wow, I must be so good in bed that you can't get that day off your mind, Mrs.

AnnaI stood under the warm water of the shower, allowing it to cleanse not only the physical dirt but also the emotional residue from what I had gone through. The water cascaded over my skin, creating a temporary place where I could release my pent-up emotions. I let myself cry, the tears merging with the running water, as if I could wash away the fear and helplessness I had felt. In the solitude of the bathroom, I faced the truth – Davis was on his way to confront Alex. That was the way he looked like, as of he was going to grab Alex by the throat and strangle him to death. I don't think he knew I know that he was in the mafia just yet because of the way he acted y telling me nothing. I wonder if I should tell him I know. My heart ached with gratitude and concern for him. The image of him leaving, his face determined and masked with a stoic expression, lingered in my mind. I couldn't shake off the worry, but I had to believe he would handle it. He always did. Like this marriag

31DavisInside the car, windows opened as Anna felt claustrophobic. She rested her head on the head rest and I watched her sleep. My hands were shaking as I picked up the blanket to cover her. She had lost some weight. I felt bad that I was not able to find her on time. That she had to find me before I found her. I took a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves. Anna was here, and she was safe now. As I pulled out of the barn's vicinity, I decided to make a call to Cameron, my trusted detective."Cameron," I said as he picked up, "I need information on an Alex, the one involved with Annabel's kidnapping. I don't have much to go on, but she mentioned the name. There is no surname so just find any Alex related to us or our business."Cameron sighed on the other end, "Alex is a common name, but give me a moment. I'll see what I can find."While waiting for Cameron to gather information, I glanced at Anna, her face serene in sleep. I felt a mix of relief and frustration, grappling with

AnnaCool shadows wash over my sweaty skin, disguising me as I moved through the corners of the abandoned warehouse courtyard. The night sky was beautiful, stars danced and twinkled. I could have loved to enjoy something like this, happily lie under the stars and let the night air cleanse my tired body and overworked muscles. But unfortunately that was not it. I needed to escape. I do not know how much time I had left before Hades would notice that I was taking too long in the bathroom or when an alarm would sound. I scanned my surroundings of any sign of Alex or his guards. There was none. I sighed in relief before moving through the darkness again. Frogs sing in the distance as my feet crunch the sand. I had no idea where I was or where I was going, so I just followed the lamplights that illuminated the pathway ahead. The ominous shadows seemed to play tricks on my senses, making every rustle of leaves or distant creak an unsettling echo.As I cautiously advanced, the distant h

AnnaHe was a psychopath. That's the only conclusion I could draw from the way he acts. Leaning on the table, cleaning his gun, all while I felt weak and disorientedThe room felt tight, I don't know what date or time it was. It felt like weeks though. I haven't seen the sun in a while, the only decency he had given me was to be able to use the bathroom but I was followed by one of his workers. A lady. There was no escape route though, just a right cubicle. The lady was strong muscular and always had a baton. I felt weak whenever I was with her. Weak and useless. My throat was parched, and my tongue felt dry. I muttered, "Thirsty. I am thirsty."Alex gave me a look then he mockingly laughed, his amusement evident, and he replied, "Sorry, darling, I can't hear you."I took deep breaths, gathering my strength. "I said I am thirsty."He looked at me with a twisted grin, saying, "Okay... so? You do know I won't give you anything until you accept my deal.""Why?" I croaked, my voice

DavisMy phone's persistent ring pierced through the atmosphere, interrupting the hug Marie. Irritated, I picked up the call, a curt "Who is this?" escaping my lips."It's me, Josie. I really need to speak to you. Can we meet up?" Josie's urgent voice pleaded from the other end, and for a moment, I hesitated. Thoughts of Annabel clouded my mind, but I steeled myself against the potential storm of emotions."If it's about Anna, I don't want to hear any explanation," I asserted, my tone firm, attempting to shield myself from potential heartache.I was ready to hang up but then she quickly said, "Please, just listen to me. I have proof, and I tell you, that person is not Anna," Josie's words cut through the uncertainty, freezing me in place."Really?" I asked, pushing Marie's hand away that was touching my face. "Really Davis. Please let's meet up. I will show you everything" "Okay," I replied after a moment, my voice colder than intended. "Where do you want us to meet?"Josie relayed

DavisI sat in my office, the bright daylight filtering through the windows, casting shadows across the room. My feet tapped incessantly on the floor as impatience gnawed at me. Anna had promised she'd come home last night, and I needed to clear the air between us. There were things that needed to be said, questions that begged for answers.And maybe tell her to stop involving herself in whatever she was doing and know why at least she had to involve herself in what she was doing. I glanced at my phone, frustration building as I tried calling her again, only to be met with the automated message that she wasn't reachable. Annoyance pulsed through me. Why say you're coming home and then disappear? Why leave me in this state of worry?Just as irritation crept in, my phone rang. I seized it, hoping to see Anna's name, but disappointment settled in when I saw it was Liam calling. I groaned and answered, "What is it?"Liam's voice carried a tone of urgency. "Have you seen what's trendin

AnnaHe didn't pick up. My best guess was he didn't want to talk to me. Which I understand.I looked down at my phone, I had left him 15 missed calls just to explain myself. But nothing.I was in a hotel room. Too scared to face Davis. To face those judgmental eyes before I could even explain.I didn't know why I cared about what he thought of me. I mean, I shouldn't, right? Still, I can't get over the fact that he might hate me more.To him, I was just a girl trying to save her mother's company, but he didn't know my secret or my other job. Now he does, and I have to face his tune.No one knows of my secret. Nor even my dad or my best friend. Just me. Now I am frightened to know the way Davis woikd act knowing that this was who I was. My phone buzzed, breaking the silence in the room. It was Davis calling. I hesitated before answering, unsure of what awaited me on the other end."Annabel, where are you?" His voice carried indifference. "I... I needed some space," I muttered, avoidi

AnnaI sat on my bed, my feet tapping anxiously on the floor. I found myself biting my fingers excessively, a nervous habit that betrayed the turmoil within. My father remained unconscious, his fate hanging in the balance, and the weight of the impending decision loomed over me.The fact that Davis had left without a word, perhaps without even seeing me, added another layer of complexity to the already tumultuous day. His absence resonated in the silence that enveloped the house, leaving me alone with my thoughts and the weight of the secrets I carried.The call I awaited would connect me to the clandestine world I had immersed myself in – a world of shadows and dangerous transactions. As I glanced at the clock, each passing moment heightened the tension, the unknowns of the impending mission casting a shadow over my already troubled marriage.In the solitude of my room, I grappled with the conflicting emotions – the sense of duty to my father and the clandestine life I led, against

24AnnaI rushed through the white hallways of the hospital, the sterile environment a stark contrast to the whirlwind of emotions churning within me. My hands fidgeted nervously, the rhythmic sound of my footsteps echoing my anxiety."What has he done again?" I murmured to myself, the weight of past missteps haunting the present. I couldn't shake the fear that my father had delved into another bout of reckless behavior. I hoped against hope that it wasn't another borrowing spree to fuel a gambling addiction. I couldn't handle another debt from my father's end, especially not now.As I neared the reception desk, the tension in the air grew palpable. The nurse behind the counter looked up, her expression a mix of sympathy and formality."Mrs. Howard?" she inquired, confirming my identity.I nodded, my voice tight. "Yes. How is my father? What happened?"She hesitated, choosing her words carefully. "He's in critical condition. The police are here. They would like to speak with you."Dre
