Chapter 30: Perhaps A New Start

Denzel Flynn ****** I dismiss Jake with a gesture of my eyes to keep watch outside. On top of having this psycho in my office, the last thing I need is to present a show for my staff. “What are you doing here?” My tone hints at my obvious displeasure at having her. “What? No ‘hi’? No ‘how are you’?” My face remains neutral. “What is your deal with Chloe?” “She’s my best friend. She’s been my best friend even after you dumped me for a dirty clodpole.” I clench my fists at my either sides. I have a hunch this meeting won’t go well. She stalks towards me like a predator, eyeing me like I’m her most delicious prey. She rests one hand on my chest before whispering seductively in my ears. “Don’t you miss me, Den? Won’t you like me to be back in your life?” I feel like I’ll vomit from her lewd behaviour. Appalled, I shake off her hand from my body. I feel an urgent need to shower. “I fell for your tricks once. I won’t repeat my mistake.” Her eyes widen in fury and the delicate ac

Chapter 31: High School Reunion Party (1)

Naomi West******The evening of the reunion arrives earlier than planned. I busied myself with writing in the morning until I ran out of my creativity. As the afternoon neared, my heart was already beating frantically in my heart.And it’s evening now. I’m supposed to arrive at the party within an hour, but I’m caught in a dilemma whether to present myself with a bold look or an innocent one.However, concentrating my mind on my appearance is another discreet way to hide my nervousness from showing on my face.A knock comes at my door.“Come in.” I yell.I don’t spare a glance at my door and continue to decide between a red backless dress and a black sleeveless one. Both of them are eye-catching and stunning in their own ways.“Going somewhere?”Denzel’s voice brings me to reality and I turn back to look at him casually leaning against my doorframe, looking genuinely curious.“Yep. It’s my high school reunion.”After his confession, the air in the apartment has become fluffier to bre

Chapter 32: High School Reunion Party (2)

I feel like throwing up my lunch at the scene of the two acting all lovey-dovey with each other.Sybil is shamelessly throwing herself at Jackson and anyone can tell how one-sided their relationship looks—almost to an extent that one would feel the desire to tear them apart with force.Nevertheless, no one focuses on the couple in front and I feel several eyes drilling holes into my back.As expected, no one would degrade the popular girl and aim at the weak without mercy.“Well, well, well... if it isn’t the whoremonger herself.” Sybil claps her hands, taking predatory steps in my direction.Everyone has already been picking up on the commotion and now, with her posture, she attracted the eyes of our entire class. Within seconds, I stand under an invisible spotlight, highlighting my appearance.“I get that you’re desperate, but snatching someone else’s man is still below you.”I feel my

Chapter 33: Nothing Is As It Seems

Denzel Flynn******Realizing that the guy before me won’t budge, I carry little rose who’s curled up in my arms in tears to a far corner from the centre. Placing her on her legs on the floor, I take off my jacket and wrap it around her.She watches me silently, in fear and shock. When I rushed to this place, I saw her in a trembling posture possessing a pitiful look. I won’t let this guy off easily.“Do you mind holding this, little rose?” I take off my watch and perch it on top of her palm. She watches me in a daze, and I smile down at her.I roll up my sleeves and confront the obnoxious jerk standing in front of the counter with a self-satisfied smirk.“You think you’re some hero? A prince charming saving the damsel in distress.” He takes out his gun and flaunts it into the air between us.When he doesn’t get the desired feeling of submission from me, he loads the gun and holds

Chapter 34: Finding Clues

Naomi West******I lay lazily in bed after the sunrise. The images from the night before flash before my eyes, causing an icy chill to run down my spine and goosebumps to rise on my arms. I stuff myself further under the blankets.It’s already ten in the morning and Ben is nowhere to be seen in my room. He’s an early riser and once up, cannot make himself to laze around in bed.If it had been just me and him, I’d have moved my lazy butt into the kitchen and made him breakfast, but I can depend on Denzel to not starve my child whilst I sleep.I’m awake though, and staying in bed, overthinking every stupid decision of my life, including last night, has given me a headache. I wanted to set an example for my son, but made a complete fool out of myself. What would Ben think of me now?I shake my head to disperse the negative thoughts. I decide to leave the bed or else my overthinking might drown me in an endless pit of darkness. Why does it feel like I've forgotten something?The moment

Chapter 35: Use Me As A Bait!

“I’ve tracked his IP address, boss.” The tech guy calls over, attracting Kyle’s and Denzel’s attention from my phone screen.The two of them stand behind the tech guy and Ben also looks into the computer screen, highly intrigued, as if he understands what’s happening.Unable to bury my curiosity, I make my way amidst the men as well. There are a bunch of numbers and alphabets on the screen.“Can you track his location?” Kyle speaks.“Yeah, give me a sec.”One second, the screen is black and filled with codes and the next, the google map pops up on the screen with a red dot.“Hey, that’s our neighbourhood. This building is just next to ours.” I tell Denzel.He nods and turns to Kyle. “Let me know of all the inhabitants of the building behind ours.”The tech guy is typing away something on his keyboard when the screen abruptly turns dark. He keeps pressing the same key, but nothing happens and Denzel intervenes.“What’s happening?” He asks.“He’s hacking me back.” The tech guy keeps pre

Chapter 36: The Silhouette In the Alley

As soon as Denzel is out of my room, I rummage through my closet to find my best shirt and jeans. Eventually, I settle with a peach coloured shirt and dark jeans and get into a warm shower to loosen my muscles.Denzel and I decide that we’d look for the stalker some other day, and this time, I won’t be accompanying them.It still seems strange to me. Why would a man strike me out of nowhere and won’t even kidnap me or take advantage of me? I’m glad that I’m safe, but isn’t that the usual case?Why did he hurt me in the first place if he had no intention of bringing me along with him? Even Denzel has been in grave thoughts ever since I pointed it out.“I’ve a meeting in the evening. Give me a call after your work finishes. Don’t wander off.” He pokes my forehead with the tip of his index finger, tilting my head back with the little force.“Don’t do that. It’s annoying.” I rebuke.An evil grin takes over his face, making him look more like the Devil. “Well, what would you prefer? This?”

Chapter 37: Just Who Are You?

My brain freezes at the most crucial situations and by the time I realize that I should run, it’s already too late.The silhouette draws closer with my every breath. The closer the figure gets, the more gigantic the man looks.There are only a few steps left between the two of us when my brain unfreezes and I realize that I need to run.I twist my body and scamper towards the backdoor but a force prevents me from talking another step and pulls me back. First, I feel a hand fisting my hair and next, my back collides with the wall.The man’s grip on my hair and nape doesn’t loosen, and tears cloud my vision. I try to fight him off with my hands, but he cages both my wrists in his other grip. He continues to drag me alongside him away from the backdoor.My purse and phone have fallen near the backdoor and with Denzel’s voice gone, my heartbeat becomes erratic and panic settles in my bloodstream.“Stop! Let go of me!” I scream, but no one in the neighbourhood seems to hear.The road is to

Chapter 38: Final Piece Of The Family Puzzle

Jacob goes back after dropping off Denzel, me, and Ben. Ben is still unaware of everything that has taken place, and I don’t bother to let him know.The first thing I do after reaching the apartment is take a long relaxing shower to calm my nerves. After I change into my robe, I head in the direction of my bedroom.Ben has already been put in bed by Denzel. As I walk to my room, something troubles me on the way and before I know, my feet wander off in another direction. Instead of standing in front of my room, I stand on the threshold of Denzel’s room.My fist rises, and without a proper thought, I knock twice on the door. I don’t understand why I’m standing before his room instead of mine. My complicated emotions blur my thinking and feeling stupid, I decide to turn around on my heels and walk away.However, just as I’m about to turn, he opens the door and stands in front of me in his pants. The alluring sight of his naked torso greets me, and I don’t look away.“What’s wrong?” He as

Chapter 39: The Crazy Morning Gets Crazier

I look at my mother in utter shock, whom I haven’t contacted in over six years. It’s not much surprising that she knows I’m back and knows my address. She’s used to spying on me since my high school days, but dropping by so early in the morning out of nowhere is awfully suspicious.And her outfit suggests that she has planned this visit for at most a week and didn’t just drop by during her morning jog.This moment looks so much like as if it’s staged. If God is watching over me right now, I’m sure he’s laughing with tears in his eyes.At one side of the door, my mother stands in a knee-length party gown with pearl necklace and bracelets and heavy makeup. And on the other side, in a stark contrast, I stand awkwardly staring at her in a man’s shirt and boxers with my hair looking like a chicken’s dwelling.One look and no one would admit that I’m someone who came out of her.“Are you daydreaming? Why do you look so lost?”I mentally slap myself back to reality at her disapproving look.
