So unloveable

Juss’ Pov "Think you can run?" Marco whispered in my ear, making my skin crawl. “Marco, I don’t have the time for your shenanigans. Can you leave now?” “You think I will leave you just like that, when I know you’re carrying my own child?” He scoffed. “Marco, can you just leave?” I tried to pull away, but he pulled me even closer. “How did you even get past security? Who gave you my address? What more do you want from me?” I heard the door open and shut and I didn't have to look to know it was Eggust. Fate had a thing against me. I knew what Eggust would assume he'd seen when he walked in though it wasn't close to the truth, but I was in a load of trouble. Suppressing the urge to roll my eyes at the cliché situation, I pushed Marco away from me. Eggust didn't even acknowledge Marco. He trained his eyes on me, practically breathing fire. "I'm not the father of your child?" he demanded in a misleadingly calm voice. Oh boy! So he had heard that part too. I cou

Words of affirmation

Eggust Pov Juss' little announcement left a silence so loud, it was unsettling. I felt all the emotions at once, I couldn’t tell which one was dominant. She loved me! She just said she loved me! I had never imagined a time in my life would come when Juss would admit to me that she loved me, in a way that isn’t platonic. Of course I had dreamt about it, but I never thought it would become a reality. I had always wanted to be with Juss, regardless of her feelings for me. But knowing that she had some for me, was a plus. The surprise I felt quickly gave way to joy and a bubbly sweet feeling formed in my heart. The feeling spread throughout my body, filling every pore and cell. I looked at Juss and found her frozen in shock. Her announcement seemed to have shocked her too that she hiccuped. Well, that was no surprise. I guess she had been denying her feelings for me for such a long time that even though it bit her on the nose, she wouldn't recognize or accept it.

An unexpected invitation

Eggust’s Pov "How long is it going to take?" I asked Ezekiel with barely controlled anger. I wasn't mad at him, of course. I was mad at the bastard who had the audacity to stalk Juss and send her those creepy messages. I was also discontented with the fact that the investigation wasn't going fast enough. I wanted to find the culprit as soon as possible and I was not going to hand him over to the police. This person was obviously one of those women I had hooked up with that ended up being obsessed with me. I mean, everyone I ever hooked up with ended up becoming obsessed with me, so it was difficult to tell which one was responsible for stalking Juss. Plus she had to be either smart or very rich, that my team have not been able to find her. I dropped a list of all the girls I had hooked up with, just as Ezekiel instructed. They weren’t many, and I had a good memory as well. “Vanessa, Olivia, Katherine, Mia, Laila and Courtney.” Ezekiel r

Some good news

Hera’s Pov Marco was running late for our meeting. Again! His nonchalant attitude was beginning to irritate me. He needed the money more than I did, why wasn’t he fighting for it? I called him a couple of times, the phone kept ringing, but he didn’t answer the call. I even texted him to confirm if he was still coming, he didn’t reply the text message as well. I was getting impatient, I couldn’t stalk Eggust’s bitch freely anymore because for some reason, Eggust updated his security protocol. But I couldn’t give up on my plan either, I didn’t come this far to quit. It was just his first mission and he still hadn’t said a word about it. Whenever I asked, he insisted on seeing me in person first. This was the second time I was fixing a meeting for us. The first time, he didn’t show up and this time, he was already fifteen minutes late. Isla’s call came through while I was waiting for Marco at the bar. I ignored her calls at first, I don’t want my line to

The jackpot

Hera’s Pov I woke up all giggly this morning. Looking forward to executing my next plan. It was one which I knew wouldn’t fail. The sun seemed brighter and even my cousin’s moderate apartment seemed like a five-star hotel to me. After the incident with her mum, which I apparently caused, Mia decided to get her own apartment. She moved out of her mum’s and it was only logical for me to follow her. I was getting tired of my aunt. I still hadn’t gotten a job after stopping the one at the hospital, for no reason, not like I tried to look for another one, either way, she’d been nagging me about it. So the best bet was to move out with Mia. I couldn't believe my luck! Just when I started cursing my stars and wallowing in self-pity, a bag of gold fell right into my lap. I really needed to learn how to be patient sometimes. But first things first; I needed to tell Eggust's mother about the baby, and in order to do that, I need proof. Not just a photo of Juss a

Too good to be true

Juss Pov It’d been one week since my scan, which also happened to be the day I asked Eggust to move in with me. The recent events that were taking place in our lives made me realize there was no point holding back. I loved Eggust and he loved me as well, so instead of living in the shadows, as I had done for the most of my life, I decided to enjoy every moment with him. He was hesitant at first, and suggested we move to his house in Manchester which was much bigger than mine. But I made him see reasons why it was better to move into my apartment. Plus we were trying to keep a low profile relationship, so moving him with him instead would jeopardize that. I was getting used to always having him around me. When I wake up, at the breakfast table, at the dinner table, bathroom, everywhere. It began to feel more like home with him around. I admit I have never been this happy in my entire life. "I think I want ice-cream." I said to Eggust, as I couldn’t hold it in any lon

Another side of Marlani

Juss’ Pov I couldn't believe my eyes as I stared at Marlani. I wanted so badly to believe it was only a dream and it wasn’t Marlani that was standing right in front of me, staring into my eyes, but it wasn’t a dream and it was her. My mind drifted to Eggust, had he been so excited that he mistakenly blurted out to his mum we were together? Or did he tell her because he just wanted us to get past this stage? He just asked me to be his girlfriend, perhaps he asked for her blessings, which I was certain she hadn’t come to give. My mind buzzed with a train of thoughts as I stared at the woman in front of me. I avoided her gaze due to the shame I felt. I had committed the worst crime on earth, and I doubted Marlani would ever forgive me. All my fears had come through. The little voice that had been warning me that things wouldn't be perfect for long, had been right all along; every garden had a snake. I stared at Marlani in shock as she stood on my doorstep glowering a

Mother and son

Juss’ Pov While Marlani was trying to recover from the force of Eggust's announcement, I poked Eggust in his rib and tried to get his attention but he refused to look at me. The stubborn boy knew I wanted to beg him to let it go so he didn't even blink in my direction. I turned to Marlani. "Marlani, let's discuss this..." I started, trying to pacify everyone but Eggust cut in sharply. "There is nothing to discuss, Juss. Nothing is happening to my baby and that is final." "Eggust!" I chided but he ignored me. "No one is getting rid of my baby. They would have to go through me first." Marlani finally recovered from her shock. She looked at me, then at Eggust. "That decision is for the best Eggust. I wouldn't suggest anything else." "The best!" he echoed. "By whose standards? The devil's?" "Eggust!" "If that is the standard you're going to be using, then I can make decisions and choices for myself." "But what if the choices you make are wrong?" Marlani countered.

What have she done?

Marlani’s Pov “I know, give him a chance, he will come around, I promise.” I said to Eggust's dad who was on the phone complaining about Eggust’s attitude recently. I tried to make him calm down, but when Sylvester was upset, only Sylvester could make himself calm. After he hung up the call, I tried to reach Eggust, but I still couldn’t. It hit the voicemail as it had been doing for the last few weeks. Something was up with Eggust, I could tell. As a mother, I knew it wasn’t something trivial. If Juss was here, maybe she would have helped talk some sense into him. He always listened to her, sometimes, more than he listened to me. I tried calling her as well, but her number was not reachable. I realized she had changed her line. “Damn you both, Juss and Eggust!” I couldn’t understand why the two most important people in my life suddenly decided to go awol, leaving me to worry about them. I wasn’t worried about Eggust as much as I was Juss, be

An unfamiliar place

Juss’s Pov I had a strange dream, I was floating in space. I looked different, I sounded different, and I wasn’t pregnant anymore. I scanned my environment, but I could only see darkness. It was like a dark cloud covering the sky like a blanket. I was alone where I was, but I could hear voices echoing from a distance. “Juss, Juss,” I heard someone call out to me faintly, as if they were careful not to wake me, but it was strange because I wasn’t even sleeping. Or was I… Dead? Panic surged through me as I tried to process what was going on. My breaths became unsteady, I felt the wind pull me down, while I struggled to stop myself from falling. I was so afraid to fall because I thought if I did, that would be the end, so I held still. “Eggust, Eggust?” I called his name, hoping he would appear and tell me everything was going to be fine. But the more I called his name, the more my voice echoed, and soon the wind began to spin me really fast. I tried too hard to hold
