It was late that day and neither Shawn nor Sophia knew the dangers that awaited them in the dark. They staggered and walked out of the beach looking all drunk and gullible for harm. While they strode in the dark, to the road, locked in each other's arms, a fine scent of danger swirled the air but Shawn and Sophia were all drunk and laughed it away. Soon, they heard gunshots. Joana, who had been following the drunk couples, halted to the red flag and bad signal. Derrick and his men were out for war and it almost seemed like a World War. Joana gazed at her cousin, Sophia, and a pang of terror overshadowed her. "We had fun at the party today. Damn! I wish the party never got to end.,” Planting a peck on Shawn's soft chin, Sophia recounted the fun she had at her birthday party hosted by her boyfriend, Shawn to celebrate their 4th relationship anniversary... No one could imagine that he would throw such a big birthday party considering his low income. He broke the bank to ensure the

You haven't told us why you got dismissed from the office.” Sophia fumed at Shawn, who was seated on the couch, placing both hands on the head."I had an outburst with a colleague at work this morning and we both got dismissed. I pleaded for a second chance, but my boss won't even listen to me,” he explained, expressing his disappointment. What a difficult time for both couples, who solely depended on their job for survival. Now their only stream of income is gone. Shawn was the reason they found themselves in the awkward situation. He categorically ordered Sophia to quit her job while he took full responsibility for her needs. She could have sworn there was never gonna be a day like this where financial setbacks would be rubbing minds with them. Over the years, she ignored numerous men for Shawn whom he loved wholeheartedly. And with a situation like this, she might just have been put to a love test."What do we do now? You can secure another job, right? Should my cousin and I go job

Another day had dawned. The rays of early sunlight lit up the streets and brought a pearly glow into the sky as the chorus of melodic birdsong drifted in. It's the most important day of Sophia's life. She wasn't a coffee drinker, but she lost sleep last night thinking about her new job and the opportunities that awaited her. Even though her boyfriend wasn't still in full support, Sophia was still determined and focused. It was just 6:30 am and Sophia was already up, and anticipating her new job. She can't wait to meet new people and make friends, too. She opened her wardrobe to select the best dress to complement her position as an office assistant but was lost and developed a headache. She found none of the outfits worthy enough. Finally, she caught a glimpse of one, a beautiful red gown. “This fits perfectly,” She smiled in excrement and stood in front of the mirror to admire her beauty. After applying a slight make-up, Sophia dashed to the living in her high heels. She was comp

Shawn gritted his teeth remembering the adorable moments he shared with Sophia in the past. The only question running through his mind was. "Could my father be right after all? He warned me about her but I refused to listen," His father's warnings are starting to play back in his head. This was the moment he wished he had listened to his father. Perhaps, he won't have found himself in an awkward situation like this. When his father warned him about Sophia, Shawn thought his father never wanted his happiness. His eyes are now widened to the bitter truth.It got to a point where Shawn's father wanted to introduce Shawn to Anita Baker, his friend's daughter who was wealthy too but according to Shawn, he wanted someone from a decent background and he felt Sophia fit in that category perfectly. With Anita depending on her father's wealth, it'll be extremely difficult to control her, so Shawn thought. Sophia may not be rich as Anita but that's Shawn's ideal woman. He wants someone he c

Living in a gigantic mansion and being constantly showered with gifts made Sophia lose her mind completely. She had barely spent days with Mathew and her whole life transformed into something else. “ Baby, I want us to start making arrangements on how to get married. You know I need to secure the deal I told you about right?” Matthew said. He kissed Sophia’s lips the more as he lay on the couch in his exquisite living room.Sophia giggled and moaned a bit as his hands fondled other parts of her body but she suddenly halted him.“ What's that look on your face, my love?” Matthew was stunned at Sophia’s sudden change. “ Can you give me more time to process this marriage? You know I have to break up with my boyfriend and convince my Dad about this whole plan. Besides, why does this have to be a contract marriage?” Sophia’s face turned pale. Matthew needs to explain why he wanted her as a contract wife and not his real wife. Matthew chuckled at Sophia’s response and this poked out the
