Tip For Trouble

“Never did I think this was going to work,” Ruby said as she sipped from her glass of wine. She raised it in a toast and Linda reciprocated, a coy smile playing on her lips. “I think you have grown better with scheming and strategizing,” Ruby applauded Linda.Linda smiled with pride as she also drank from her own cup of wine. She had waited for the day almost all her life. A day where Ruby would eventually come to the realization that she was just as good as Ruby could ever be, or even more. For years, Ruby, especially had taken Linda for granted. She had always wanted to scheme things through, but Ruby believed that it was better to do it herself.“I learned from the best,” Linda said as she returned her toast. The two women, mother and daughter stared at each other with admiration. “When dad informed us that Samuel Fury was seeking a personal pregnancy test, I almost panicked,” Linda said with a light chuckle. Ruby hissed. “I hate to say this, but Colt can be a little annoying so

A Mistake

Ciara stumbled blindly towards the Luscious residence, but she stopped short when she noticed Samuel Fury’s nurse sneaking out of the premises.Ciara was shocked. She stood there and watched the nurse enter into a cab and drive off. Although she wore a casual outfit and bent her head low to avoid recognition, but Ciara would know her any time, and from whatever distance. In fact, since the day she assisted Ciara in making the doctor not tell Samuel about her pregnancy, she had memorized the Nurse’s face. The question now is, what is she doing sneaking out of the Luscious residence?After the altercation with Samuel, Ciara had stormed out of the penthouse. Luckily for her, the door had been left unlocked, so she had access to leave, and as she left, the only thing Ciara wanted to do was visit her mother’s grave and cry to her. She wanted someone to talk to, and her mother was the only person she knew could openly talk to and pour out her heart.Her mother was the only person, dead or

Danger Zone

“Let me help you, miss.”Ciara felt someone grab her hands tenderly. The voice was oddly familiar, and even though the hold was gentle and sent a message of help, the person’s palm was coarse, way stronger than Ciara’s palms. Ciara had no choice now as she allowed the person lead her away.“I really need water to wipe my eyes,” Ciara cried. She felt as though she had already gone blind with the aching pain she was feeling deep inside her eyes. Her body was also feeling sticky as a result of the wine Ruby poured on her, and if Ciara hadn’t struggled her way out of the house, they both might have connived together and emptied the entire wine bottle on her body. “Of course, miss. Who did this to you?” She asked as she continued to lead Ciara somewhere.“I just need water,” Ciara cried. Until she cleaned her eyes and felt better, she would not be able to answer any silly questions, especially from strangers. “Where are you taking me?” Ciara asked. She had just realized that what seemed

His Capability

Ciara entered the penthouse with Samuel. She was shivering, but it had nothing to do with cold. She could not shake off the encounter of what almost happened to her. Everything happened so fast even before Ciara could wrap her head around it.“Thank you,” Ciara said quietly.She noticed that since they got in, Samuel had been looking at her in a weird way. He had seen her scars, well, some of them, and now, he knows a part of her demons, and she knew deep down that Samuel had a lot of confrontations with her.“What I would like is an explanation to things,” Samuel said sternly. He looked and sounded angrier than when he had stormed into the alley, scared the inmates out of their wits and saved Ciara.Ciara opened her mouth, but no words would come out. She did not know where to begin, or maybe truthfully, she did not want to share that part of her life with him.“I need some money,” Ciara stated instead.Samuel became infuriated. “What do you need money for again?” He demanded harshly.

Her Mother's Wish

Later that night, Ciara stayed in bed and sobbed bitterly. Samuel Fury succeeded in making her quit her demand by his last statement. In truth, Ciara had no idea how she got released the second time, because the correctional officer did not inform her, but with Samuel’s words, she could not doubt it, because she knew quite well that he had the capability to do so.Those words alone were enough to make Ciara succumb, because there was no way in heaven she was going back to prison; not if she could help it. The terrors in Ciara’s life in prison were out, but Ciara knew that they were not the only ones that bullied her while she was in prison. There were several others, but those had just been random bullies, but these two definitely had something against Ciara to make them want to kill her so badly.Unfortunately, she would not be able to visit her mother’s grave and cry to her like she had intended, and this was why Ciara soaked the bed and pillows with hot tears. No amount of tears wou

How Well Do You Know Her?

Samuel waited patiently for his mother in the living room. He had a thousand and one thing running through his mind, but the top of that list is Ciara Summers. Samuel readily accepted his mother’s wish, because he would do anything to make her happy, especially now that he had limited time with her, so when she had come up with the most ridiculous wish, he had jumped on it without questioning anything even though Ciara had been nothing but stubborn and unyielding at the initial stage.Now, and with all that had happened recently, Samuel needed some answers, and since he wasn’t getting them from Ciara, he would get them from his mother. Samuel’s only concern and fear was that Ciara Summers could even be someone his mother did not really know about.Samuel had always known that his mother was a compassionate woman who was too quick to take pity on anyone at all. Sitting in the living room even brought Samuel harsh memories that he would have wanted to remain buried forever, but he had

Her Savior

Samuel’s question dragged Aunt Mary down ugly memory lane.She had been in her cell when a younger girl had been shoved into the cell of the two most dangerous female prison bullies as their cellmate. Aunt Mary had been devastated as well as upset. Barely days ago, a girl just as young had also been put in their cell as their cellmate, and when they had begun bullying her, Aunt Mary had turned a blind eye.She had been feeling really sick, and as a result, her doctor had warned her to stay away from anything that would trigger her illness, and so that was what Aunt Mary had been focused on, but she had seen firsthand how they had bullied the young girl whose name Aunt Mary never knew.At night, the girl would cry and cry, and Aunt Mary would try to block out her cry of anguish and pain, but no one came to her rescue. The other inmates simply minded their business or concerned themselves with something else, and the correctional officers were unaware of this because they had warned her

Her Past

Samuel now understood why his mother had taken it upon herself to protect Ciara Summers at all cost and ensure her safety and happiness, because she felt connected to Ciara’s pains. What Samuel did not understand was how Ciara got herself into prison.“If Ciara is so pure and innocent like you have said, how come she went to jail?” Samuel could not help but ask. He had had a couple of questions to ask his mother, but her little sob narration of how she met Ciara Summers only aroused more questions in him.“She does not like to say, but she was framed by the family that raised her,” she said.“What family?” Samuel asked.“Ciara should be the one divulging this information about herself, not me,” Aunt Mary said. In as much as she loves her son with every fiber in her being, she loves Ciara Summers just as much. Ever since they met, an undeniable bond was struck between them, and Aunt Mary knew that she was going to spend the rest of her life protecting Ciara. She also knew the kind of

After he had made certain that she was sure of what she was saying, Samuel sorted the bill and walked out of the restaurant, leaving a disappointed Linda behind to enjoy herself.Samuel’s mind was reeling with diverse thoughts.He tried to doubt the words of Linda, but how could he when Ciara has given him countless reasons to believe that she had something up her sleeve?

First of all, he caught Ciara Summers rushing out of the Luscious home in a terrible state, and just as he had trailed her from the penthouse, he had also followed her.
