Arresting Mia

"What are you doing? Leave me the fuck alone! I don't know anything about any kids." Mia yelled and struggled with the officers as they clasped the handcuffs around her wrists. "What do you think you're doing, Hailey? Arresting my daughter-in-law?" Martha blocked my path, stopping me from leaving their home."Leave my path or I'll have the police arrest you for aiding and abetting." I warned her in the chilliest of tone. It was the next day and my kids were yet to be found. My secretary was still battling for her life in the hospital. I was this close to losing my sanity."Control your fiancee, uncle. Why are you letting her do this? She's using your influence." Jared was talking to his uncle. "Fiancee? What are you talking about?" Martha appeared confused until she spotted the engagement ring I'd bought for myself nestled amongst my fingers. "Oh, I see. You wench! Gold digger!""Don't let me have you arrested." I nudged her out of the way. "Let's go." I beckoned on uncle Pete."S

Released

His phone rang, I grabbed it from him and picked. "Hello, who's this? Where are my children?! Give them back to me!" I screamed into the phone."Hello, bitch. Been a while." The voice chuckled, it was mischievous-sounding.Tears were already falling down my face, disbelief and shock spread through my features. "Catherine?""I'm glad you remember me." She laughed again.Uncle Pete was surprised, he gestured for me to put in on loudspeaker. "Where's my husband? I want to talk to him." With shaky fingers, I handed the phone to Uncle Pete. He took it. "Catherine?""Yes, it is me darling. How have you been? I've missed you, it's been years.""Why do you have the children? How do you even know about them?"A low, sinister chortle emanated from her. "You should know by now, I will do anything to have you back with me.""Release the children.""I would love to but you have to get Mia out of

Little Zaya

"Where are my babies?" I cried, struggling to get up from the hospital bed I was laid in.The heart monitor beeped faster and erratically. "Calm down, Hailey. You'll end up hurting yourself." Jared was trying to calm me but I was having none of it.Uncle Pete was nowhere in sight and neither were my kids. "No! I need to see my babies." I would not stop crying. The mental image of my babies tied up and unconscious in those boxes was enough trauma for me. Who would do that to five year olds? Zaya and Zion were innocent in all of this. Why would Catherine do this to my children?"Calm down and I promise to get them for you." Jared's tone took on a softer edge. I met his gaze. "Where are they? A-are they fine?""Yes, they are. The doctor said they're responding to treatment and will be awake soon. I'm sure you do not want to them to see you in this state." He said as a way of trying to make me relax.I stopped struggling but it was hard to relax. I couldn't relax until I was sure they

Hailey Must Not Know

JAREDI stood at the window watching her. She was tired and unwell, that much was obvious.There was this difference about her that I'd noticed the moment I set my sights on her in that ballroom.She had changed in these past few years. The old Hailey would never have been bold enough to arrest Mia. Or talk back at me.Hell, she even raised a hand to my face in public. Well, honestly, I think I deserved that slap. I should never have made such an insensitive statement.I would apologize for it as soon as things were back to normal.She held both arms of her kids and closed her eyes, her body slouched on the seat. For some reason, I found her incredibly strong and appealing but I shouldn't.She was my uncle's fiancee. It was still a shock to me realizing what she and my uncle had achieved together.I was angry. And yes, jealous as well.They had two beautiful, smart kids. Something I craved for. Maybe I should not have asked her to abort years ago, that was stupid of me. But how would

The Tables Have Turned

CHRISTIANAnger surged through my veins but I could not react or act upon it, not when there were four hefty bulldogs in dark sunglasses and black attire daring me with their presence to make a wrong move. I was yet to heal from the beating from two days ago.Denise was with them. "Why are you doing this, Denise? I trusted you." I could only express my anger and disappointment with minimal action to back it up."Hailey trusted you." She replied calmly. "You never told me you were siblings. Why?" I was currently standing outside the gate of the mansion I used to live with Hailey until I had thrown her out. Denise was doing the same to me. Fuck! To think I loved her."Step siblings." She corrected, then continued. "Why should I have told you? Where's the fun in that?""Does Hailey know?" I wanted to know because Hailey never told me she had any step sibling. In fact, she was an only child from what she'd told me."You think she would have married you if she did? No, of course not."

Code Blue!

The loud, erratic beeping machine of the machine startled me out of the chair, landing me on the floor.My eyes were wide open with confusion and for the briefest period of time, disoriented too. Before it suddenly seeped into the sleeping part of my brain that I was in the hospital with my children.I turned to see it was Zaya yet again. She was bleeding and this time, it was worse than before.I gasped, fear choked words out of me. "Zaya baby." I crawled to where her bed was to check her. There was blood flowing out of her mouth and nose. Scrambling to my feet with tears blurring my vision and my heart rate faster than normal, I ran to towards the door to find the doctor."Doctor!" I called, spotting her already hurrying this way. Maybe she has heard the beeping. "I heard, ma'am." Her tone was calm but there was an urgency underlying it that had me wondering if all was well.I gave way and allowed her into the room. She was on her pager. "Bring the gurney to the VIP room two now!

The Meet-Up

CATHERINE I pulled the hood of my sweatshirt tighter around my face to prevent being seen. Though it was night, I could not risk it. My identity should not be unmasked. I could not be arrested again. Moreover, I was living low until my plans were fully and successfully hatched.I turned a corner, my eyes scanning the area for anyone who might recognize me. I headed for the St. Thomas bridge, hoping he was already waiting for me.As I neared the bridge, I saw the glint the headlight of a black car, I walked faster relieved he was already there, hiding my face from the streetlights strategically rooted around the area.He came out as soon as he spotted me coming close to his car parked at a corner of the bridge. The weather was cool, maybe because of the soft whoosh of the big waters beneath."Mr. Phil Pillax?" I wanted to be certain I had the right person.He, too, had concealed his identity under a long coat with hood. "Yes. Catherine Johnson?"Peter had sent me divorce papers years

Silent Allegations

MIA"Why is he not back yet?" I paced the living room, my mother-in-law's eyes following me."Try calling him again." She suggested.She was worried, I heard it in her voice. It had been anger at first but I guessed anger had morphed into worry.As for me, it was still anger. I knew he was with that bitch."I have called him a million times and he's not picking. What is wrong with him?!" I cussed, anger squeezing my insides. "That stupid Hailey!"She was always getting in my business. That bitch! I'd not forgotten how she'd had me arrested. She would pay for doing that to me. For now, I needed my husband back home with me."You're quiet, Martha." I halted my pacing to see my mother-in-law watching me thoughtfully. "What?""Did you know Hailey has children?" She questioned, meeting my gaze."No. I was even surprised to know she has kids. I didn't even know about them until I was arrested." I let out an exasperated groan, taking a seat opposite her."Me too." She fell silent but it was

The Past Still Hurts

"Why can't I see my daughter?" I queried the doctor that was put in charge of my children. I had been discharged this morning, the doctor had certified my health better and my blood pressure was now back to normal.It had taken a lot of will from me to achieve that. I knew if I kept being sick, I would not be allowed to see my children and care for them as I should.Also, if I needed to stand up for myself and my kids, I needed to do that while standing on my feet with my head held high. It was obvious the likes of Catherine would not rest nor wanted to see me happy so I'd pay her back. No peace for her as well.But currently, this doctor was annoying me. Why was she refusing me from seeing my daughter?"Because you can not, ma'am." She insisted."I am her mother, I have every right." I was tempted to raise my voice but I didn't.This was the pediatric wing. For the sake of the sick children, I wouldn't.But I was this close to losing it. Uncle Pete was not here with me. He had gone

His Plan

PETER"I never knew you'd want to see me again." The man I'd been waiting for finally made an appearance after sitting idly and nursing a bottle of beer in this local bar far away from the upscale life and activities."It's been a long time, Derek." Derek Kellers.The man I used to know but never associated with. Even in highschool, he'd always been a truant and a rebellious person. With his love for trouble and everything illegal, I stayed away. Percy, my late twin brother, had been the one he was close to. "Yes. Imagine my surprise when the Almighty CEO of Astra-Z called. Never even knew you had my number." He removed his sunglasses and placed them on the table."I didn't." I told him."How did you get my number then?"Without permission, he grabbed my bottle and downed its contents. "Poor beer sat there looking eager to be chugged."He belched and sniffed. His hair was held in a loose ponytail and an eyebrow ring glinted.I wasn't happy sitting down with him. His presence could
