AlexanderThe headache I woke up with could be compared to an angry person banging on the door of whoever he wants to vex with.I tried searching for my phone and finally saw it lying just above my head. I hadn't taken the current state I was in fully.I switched on the flashlight of my phone and shone it around the room, it was an unfamiliar room. The time was a few minutes past 8pm.I sighed and sat upright, carefully resting my head on the headboard. A gentle moan emanated from beside me, I gently took my phone and shone it around.“What the heck?” I jumped away from the bed and felt the cold sensation from the tiles on my bare ass.I took a good look at myself and noticed that I was naked. I searched for my boxers lying around the room and wore them quickly, same as my trousers.I found the switch to the light, turning it on immediately. Bree was naked as well. Her plump fair breast poked at me and I threw the duvet over her.“Wake up,” I hurried to her, waking her up from whateve
BreeTo be honest, I was scared. Scared of everything I was doing, wondering if it was worth it in the end. But then Francis was just at the hem of my neck, encouraging me that Alexander was going to be mine; just a little bit more. Even though it never felt like that, it wasn't close to feeling like that.The walk to my room was heavy, it felt like bags of cement had been attached to my body, making it difficult for me to walk properly.The same question went over and over in my head: is Alexander going to ever see me as more?I went straight to my bed, everything was becoming more and more complex. As my back hit the bed, what happened that morning flushed through my head again.FlashbackI watched his car zoom out of the compound and I couldn't help but want to burst into tears. But definitely not in front of the people that called themselves my parents. I ran to my room and cried my eyes out. They didn't even try to run after me, the only thing was their voices escorting me to my
FrancisInitially, Melissa was just someone that I wanted to pass time with, irrespective of how many times I rang it in her ear that I'd treat her kids right. It was all a bluff.Now with everything Bree told me, I was more than determined to help them dissolve the marriage. She was the legitimate child of the richest people in the country, even richer than her so-called billionaire husband.All I needed to do was keep showing my face to her, smile with her kids and make them believe I'll do anything for them.Bree was going to keep giving me all the information I needed to stay updated. And I had to keep it all under control, if Bree thought I meant what I said, then she must be in for a very long ride. She was a spoiled brat who saw just herself as the most valuable.“Melissa,” her name gently rolled out of mouth with the new information in my head. If I succeeded in getting her, all Thatcher's wealth and her body was going to be mine forever. And then I could finally get a sidechic
AlexanderWith love and admiration filled in my eyes, I looked at the newly customized wristwatches on the table. Each of them was worth 1.5 million dollars, nothing was too small to spend for my babies. It was their day tomorrow and I'm so glad Albert told me about it. Melissa still never said a word, I wouldn't blame her. The fault was all mine.From what I was able to gather, she wanted just a small birthday party for them. I ordered a 3 step cake for each one of them, to be delivered to her doorstep tomorrow morning. What could I do to make it alright with her? There was no way she was just going to let her guard down and move on with me. Bree was always going to be an obstacle and there's no way a pretty woman like her wouldn't have someone on her tail.A single knock shifted my attention away from my thoughts. With each calming step, I opened up.“Excited about tomorrow?” Lady Selene helped herself inside and sat on the bed.“Not quite,” my shoulders were saggy with each word co
MelissaThe trio were up before the usual time, I guess knowing that it was their day was more than enough to keep them up all through the night.“Good morning mummy,” Aiden and Aurora chorused, with their smiles reaching the ends of their ears.“Morning my babies, did you have a good night's rest?” I pended the breakfast I was making and kissed their foreheads.“Yes mummy, we did,” they both cooed, running straight into the living room.I looked around for the last person, the last person that always made me doubt if he was truly my son.“Where's Albert?” I asked.“I'm here,” he answered, coming inside the kitchen as soon as I finished asking about him. “Good morning mother.”“Mother?” I repeated, remembering that the other 2 just called me mummy now. “Please tell me how old you are today, Albert.”He went to the bowl of fries that was sitting graciously on the counter, throwing one into his mouth.“Is it because I called you mother that's why you are asking for my age?”“I'm glad you
MelissaFrom the living room window, I could see various people outside and I instantly wondered what was going on. The incessant ringing forced me out of the reverie, my fear raised to the bar.“Hold on a minute,” I gathered my 3 minions and put them behind me. If anything will happen first, they would have to get through to me; their mother.I pushed the door open and I saw the remaining space of my lawn being decorated. A lady stood by the door in her smiles, wearing the tag Evelyn.“Hi,” she said in the most professional way ever. “I believe you are Miss Dawson?”“Yeah, yes I am. How may I help you today?”“Please sign this,” she pushed out a document to me. Sensing my hesitation, her smile came out more brightly. “It's nothing serious, you can go through it if you want.”I briefly scanned the document and saw deliveries of some things and decorations. I put down my signature and she thanked me, going back to work.The blue and yellow top she was wearing had Samara Event And Cater
MelissaThe guest swarmed in like bees and I started to think that I might have sent a broadcast message to all my contact list. Gifts of different kinds kept piling up and the trio could not wait to open them.But someone was still missing and even though they tried to enjoy their day, it was still very glaring on their face; of course, except Albert.I kept stretching my tiny neck, peeping to see when either of them would just teleport here.As various cars parked in front of the house, I silently continued praying that he should show up.A familiar black car drove in and the first thing I did was sigh loudly and roll my eyes. I unconsciously placed my hand on my head, trying to wipe away the invisible sweat.“Hi,” the driver of the car joyfully raised his hands in the air, waving in my direction. He rushed to the boot of his car and started stuffing out gifts. Big teddy bears of different colors, he has no idea that my kids hate them. He put the gifts in the gift's section and cam
MelissaI took cautious steps towards the gift Alexander brought for me. It was wholesome, my eyes continued watering on their own and I quickly wiped them off.“Hello Melissa, I heard you are a big fan of me,” the middle aged woman said.“Lyra Astrid?” I wanted to confirm if she was truly the one standing in front of me.She put her arms out, smiling. “In all her glory.”Lyra Astrid was the biggest and best artist the 21st century has ever produced. While in college, I watched all her painting videos and her speeches and tried to attend some but the entrance cost was just too high; for someone that was caring for an ailing mother.She was my role model, she was everything to me. I looked up to her and revered her like a goddess.It still came as a shock to me. I moved closer and whispered, “c-c-can I touch you or feel you or stand beside you?”My words were rambling out and I didn't care if everyone looked at me and saw a teenager because I most certainly did not behave like a mother
