NO STRINGS ATTACHED

I shouldn't be feeling how I felt but I couldn't help it. Markus made it clear that we weren't in any kind of relationship, but I couldn't help but feel stupid, he could do what he wanted and I couldn't till I had given him a child. Watching him lay with another woman moved strings in my heart that weren't supposed to move. This is why he didn't even care to come to me, he was having his way with other women, he didn't care if I was sulking or not, he just knew I would always be there when he liked because I didn't have a choice.

I picked up whatever dignity I had left and rushed back to my room. As soon as I got in, I locked the door and got myself into my bed. I don't know why I am acting like a woman who just caught her husband cheating. Markus isn't my husband, I have no rights over him. I finally fell asleep after much turning and tossing.

When I woke up the next morning I felt like a ghost so I needed something to brighten up my day and that was baking. It was quite early and I knew even the maids would be asleep. I went into the kitchen and found all the ingredients I'd need for the cupcake. When I mixed everything, I took the dough and had a taste of it, something I've always done since I was younger. I found the pan and turned the dough inside after applying butter to the pan then I put it in the oven and waited for it to get ready. I was sitting on the kitchen counter when one of the maids rushed in looking surprised, Rena, the maid who has faithfully served me from the first day I came here.

" Ma'am, what are you doing? If you wanted a cake you would have called me to make one for you, why are you doing it yourself?" This is how it has been since I came here, they barely let me touch anything, and it was like I was already pregnant. Who knew what their boss must have said to them?

"Calm down Rena, it's just a hobby of mine that calms me down, I promise you'll like it." She didn't look too happy with this hobby of mine, but she didn't have a choice but to leave me be.

When the cupcakes were ready, she helped me design the cake. It was a fun process because I kept rubbing the icing on her face. She looked so cute when she was angry.

I was still with Rena in the kitchen when Markus walked downstairs with the woman he was with yesterday, I couldn't help but frown. But what rights did I have, this was his house after all. Rena made coffee and quickly took it to them as they sat on the couch in the sitting room. I just ignored them, nothing in the contract states that I have to be nice to the women he sleeps with, so am just going to mind my business.

After baking, I didn't even feel like having any of the cupcakes so I just abandoned them and was making my way to my room when I heard the woman speak. " Hey!" I just kept on walking because I didn't know who she was referring to, I was not a maid. "Hey! Are you deaf or something?" That was when I turned to her and could you believe it? She was actually calling me.

" How may I help you?" I asked her and the glare she gave me was like I told her to get out of the house. " Ma I can get you whatever you need." Rena tried to tell her but she raised her hand signaling for her to keep quiet. I didn't want Rena to get in trouble. " It's fine Rena." It was like that simple statement made her angry, I think she felt like I was acting like Markus' wife, all this time Markus didn't utter a single word, he was rather focused on the game he was watching.

" Are you in charge here?"

" No I am not," I answered and I think she was satisfied with my answer. " Serve us breakfast." I didn't need to argue, I just nodded and went into the kitchen, Rena tried to follow me but I signaled to her not to, I know how angry and jealous girlfriends could be. I made them something simple, I made pancakes and another cup of sweet coffee. When I was done I went to them and told them food was ready, and decided to go back upstairs. But the lady called me again.

"Where do you think you're going? What if I need something, would I have to yell the whole house down for you?" I wanted to tell her I wasn't a maid here, but the question was, what was I then? Markus wasn't saying anything, then what do I have to say? I just followed behind them as they walked to the dining room, the breakfast was already served, so I just stood close in case they needed something like she said.

My mind was somewhere else but I snapped back to reality when I heard her her groan in annoyance. " You witch! What did you put in this coffee?" I turned back just in time to see her spitting the coffee back into the cup. " I did no such thing," I said as I made my way to her, she looked like she was ready to bury me whole.

" Are you trying to call me a liar?!" That was what she was at the moment. Because I didn't put anything in that cup, she was just being dramatic. I didn't answer her question and that made her face even more angry. " Drink it." No way, there was no way I was gonna drink from a cup that had her spit, that was disgusting.

She kept looking at me like she was expecting me to drink it. I took the cup from the table looked her in the eyes and….

    A FAMILY " Dad! Dad! save me Mom is going to kill me," Alexandra shouted as she ran up the stairs to her father like she always does." I've warned you several times not to touch the cookies until it was time to serve them" Each time I baked cookies she always found a way to sneak into the kitchen and disappear with one, she was just like her father. They were a team at taking cookies from the kitchen." Have you seen Alexandra?" I asked Markus who was seated on the bed pretending like he didn't hear me, without even getting his answer I could already see Alexandra hiding behind her father's back." No, I haven't seen her, Why?" Like always, he'll cover for her." So there's no one behind you?" I asked as I started walking slowly to where she was hiding behind her father." So who's this?" I started tickling her through the sheet that she had covering her. She broke into a fit of giggling." Mom stop," " Will you pick cookies again?" " No Mom, Dad save me already," " Okay, okay,"

    DEATH " Please I'll do anything, just let me know where my daughter is," I said to her hoping she wouldn't end the call. I didn't recognize the voice of the lady speaking." Listen to me carefully," She said and I nodded then realizing she couldn't see me I spoke." Yes, I'm listening." " Don't you try any funny business, if you do, your daughter dies." I heard crying in the background as if they were trying to emphasize their point." I'll do whatever you say, as long as you give me my daughter," " Okay, I'm going to send you an address, make sure you come alone, no police, just you," " No funny business, I swear," I said, trying to plead with her." I'm glad we have an understanding, because I'm sure my tigers wouldn't mind munching on her little flesh," My heart skipped, I couldn't dare imagine the image of tigers feasting on my baby.The phone suddenly got disconnected at the same time Rena opened the door.I almost forgot I was warned not to tell anyone the information I had

Jane, let's go inside, please this isn't going to help with finding Alexandra, I can't focus on you like this please," She finally listened as she grudgingly stood up and walked past me not uttering a single word.I sighed as I turned to go inside but stopped when I noticed someone walking towards the house." You've got to be kidding me," I muttered as my eyes shot daggers at him." What do you think you're doing here?" " I'm not here to see you, I'm here for my fr

    KIDNAPPED The world around me became dark, everything around me was covered in darkness like I was being cast a spell. Alexandra wasn't in her room, she wasn't with Markus then where was she?" Ma'am, ma'am," I felt someone shaking me but my mind was too clouded. The person didn't stop which made me eventually come back to my senses." Alexandra, Alexandra," That was the first thing I said as soon as I realized myself and remembered my situation." Go! Go! Tell the security to search the whole house, search everywhere, my daughter is in this house," I said as the maid quickly kicked into action.If I found out Markus was playing some silly games with me I swear I was going to chop off his balls.I went to Alexandra's room to search for her, for all I knew she might be in her room.I opened the door and rushed to her bed but she wasn't there. Alexandra was still a baby, she couldn't sit or crawl, I would have concluded that she crawled from my room to hers but she couldn't. Even if sh

    MISSING CHILDI have never pushed someone with so much force the way I just pushed Markus, I didn't know where the power came from." How dare you? What gave you the right to think you could touch me?!" I yelled in anger." What? Do you think you could just throw me and pick me however you want? I'm not your toy, the next time you think of ever touching me, know that you might lose an organ and I will not be held responsible." I was beyond angry and I needed to calm myself before I did something stupid.Markus was looking at me with shock in his eyes as if he couldn't believe what just happened, did he expect me to run into his arms like a woman in heat? He's got to be kidding me.Without sparing him another glance I ran upstairs. Did he think that just because he had the power to tell me not to see my daughter he could blackmail me and make me do whatever he wanted?I'm a changed woman, he changed me.I opened Alexandra's room and she was sleeping so I quietly walked to her. She had

    ANGER KISS I stood in front of his house as I scanned my eyes around, well it was a beautiful building, I had no grudge against his house, I was just here for him.I rang the doorbell and not up to a minute the door came open. I was sure he wasn't expecting me, maybe Jane.The look on his face told me he would rather speak to pigs than spend a minute of his time talking to me." What are you doing here?" He asked with a hard voice, I didn't care if he was sad or happy to meet me." Well is that how you welcome the father of your friend's child?" His jaw ticked but he didn't say a word. I knew what I was doing. I wanted to let him know that whatever happy ending story he had about Jane in his head needed to be wiped. I had the upper hand here. I have the child Jane is in love with and it's just because I don't want her to hate me more than she already does I would have told her that my condition is for her to stop seeing this man." I didn't invite you here, so you might as well go b
