The Devil's Secretary
" You're mine, little bird."
My blood thrummed loudly in my ears as I crawled away from him on the floor.
With long strides, he was already standing above me. He pulled me up and covered my mouth with his palm.
Panic set in, my limbs shaking in terror.
"You need a reminder of who you belong to." His mismatched eyes boring into mine.
I shook my head, violently, tears wetting his hand over my mouth.
He brought the knife to my face." Tell your lover, Zayden, not to get involved. I already graced you with the wedding. Marry him, but 7 days after the wedding, come back to Denver, where you belong."
I nodded desperately, hoping he wouldn't hurt me.
" I'll leave a souvenir." He chuckled and then dug the pocket knife into my side.

Chapter: Chapter 122Zayden Five months later I was going through the documents for our project, the expansion of our jewellery shop. I had built another branch in California, and now I'm constructing another in New York. The jewellery shop was making waves; It got to the point that I now had to start shipping in new jewellery every two days. Oliver was still the CEO of Kent Tech. Lillian had tried convincing me to take it back; it was rightly mine anyway, but I refused. Besides, Oliver was handling it pretty well. For me, going back there felt suffocating, like I was offering myself over to my father's clutches again. I preferred running the jewellery shop with Lillian, and I have big plans for our business. I'll leave the company to Oliver and Jade. Speaking of which, they were getting married because Jade got pregnant. I knew she would get pregnant eventually from the start because, obviously, they weren't careful enough, and Oliver was also a horny freak like Me. Now, I'm the one giving

Chapter: Chapter 121Zayden There on the notice board was my name written in bold. I could not hold back my joy. I'm now a freeman. I can finally go back home and be with my wife.I'll make it to Laura's first one-year birthday. Unfortunately, my roommate didn't make it, and he didn't seem bothered about it." Congratulations, man, your efforts have finally paid off. I'm going to miss you a little." He spoke patting my shoulders.I was still in disbelief, my chest was heaving up and down. I can't wait to surprise Lillian. She would probably break down in tears once I told her the news. We were taken back to our cells and ordered to pack our stuff which was nothing much.The next morning, my release papers were being finalised, and I was told that it would take three days for everything to be processed. The wait was worth it, and while I waited, I shaved my beards off, and I bid my cellmates goodbye. Most of them were jealous while others were happy for me. I was put under surveillance on the day of

Chapter: Chapter 120Lillian Aiden had rejected my visit twice, he was making it hard for me to keep my promise to Zayden.I don't know if he was overly weighed down with guilt or if he simply still hates my existence. Anyway, today was another day to try again.This would be the last time that I would come here, and if he still refuses to see me, then I'm giving up on him. To my surprise, he accepted, and I was led to the visitation room that had a glass wall dividing my box from his. I guess that's how chronic criminals were kept. Aiden was brought in a minute later and the first thing I did was take in his features. He looked the same only that he had grown thick beards and had a few scars on his face.Why do prisoners even grow beards? It must have been tough there for him. He sat on the other side and picked up the telephone.I spoke first." It's been a while Aiden." He raised his eyes to meet mine, and for once, I saw the friend I had in him. The friend I thought I could confide in when things

Chapter: Chapter 119Zayden I went back to my cell with a smile on my face and a satisfied dick. Now I had even more zeal to push harder and get that parole. I'm going to get it at all costs. I did every single task I was instructed to. I avoided fights, a lot of them and bore insults from some proud bastard inmates. I just want to leave this place soon or I might lose my sanity. The days rolled by again, and finally, news got out that the selection had been made, and we would either go in batches to the front yard because, according to my roommate, they paste the list of people who had been chosen on a wide notice board in the front yard. But other times, they call them out of their cells to prevent a stampede because, eventually, everyone wants freedom. This time around, the names were pasted in the front yard, and our warden announced that we would go in batches to check. My blood thrummed in anticipation and agony. If my name appears there then I'm finally a free man. I kept fidgeti

Chapter: Chapter 118Lillian I don't think I can even remember my name. He had turned me into a hot, shuddering, and slippery mess.He pounded Into me harder than before and a loud moan escaped my lips. Drool slipped down my open mouth as my breast bounced up and down.Zayden groaned harder." Fuck....that's it. Milk my cock baby." I arched my back further and spread my legs out as far as they could go.I wanted to feel him deep in my cunt, so deep that I would feel it in my throat.He pushed his hard length into me again and I nearly lost myself." Harder...fuck me harder." I cried, the pleasure so thick and heavy that it made my legs quiver underneath me.A deep growl emanated from his throat as he flipped me around to face him." On your knees." He commanded, his eyes spitting a fiery fire.I looked up at him confused." What are you....." I didn't get to finish my sentence when he shoved my shoulders down and I landed on my knees.His cock stood outright on my face, inches away from my lips. I then un

Chapter: Chapter 117ZaydenMy breathing had doubled as we made our way inside the restroom. I was already salivating like an animal. I won't lie; I went to bed sometimes fantasizing about sex with Lillian. It got me hard and unbelievably horny. It's frustrating not being able to get a release, so most times, I suppress my desires, but right now, I'm letting it all out.We stopped in front of the mirror, and our eyes jammed; I saw the heated gaze in her eyes.She licked her lips and it ignited a fire that had slightly damped in me.I pulled her in immediately and we locked lips. She hummed as I dived deeper into her mouth. I ran my fingers into the locks of her hair, savouring the taste of her mouth.God! I missed this.My hands slide down to squeeze my favourite part of her body.I groaned at the feel of her breast; it had grown bigger, probably due to breastfeeding, and also softer."Damn, Lilly. I've daydreamed about this moment so many times." I hummed, picking her up and pushing her against th

Chapter: Chapter 93ErenI sat motionless, staring straight ahead and my jaw clenched so tightly I thought my teeth might crack.If my blood was lava,I would have exploded by now.They really tried to pin Felix death on me , even if I actually did kill him. It only proves that I have more than one enemy. Those enemies are closer than I thought. I didn't care about the whispers that rumoured around the court ,even the judges were staring at me like I was hiding something. The only thing I cared about right now was Elizabeth and the look on her face.She was doubting me and probably confused from all the testimonies but I didn't like the way she was looking at me. Like she was so close to believing what Javan and Dwain said. I didn't tell her much about my childhood and now I regret it. I knew she was trying to be strong but I saw the way her shoulders trembled.Her parents, especially her mom, looked exhausted. There were even eye bags under their eyes."

Chapter: Chapter 92ErenThe courtroom felt colder than usual today.My fingers were cold despite being clasped tightly in my lap, and my back was stiff against the wooden bench.Javan and Dwain were still present today despite their meaningless dramatic entrance yesterday. I have a bad feeling about this. Dwain’s eyes scanned the courtroom nervously as he adjusted his collar, his steps faltering slightly as he walked over to Mr Sanchez and whispered something in his ears. The old man nodded and he retired back to his seat.The judges arrived and Elizabeth was escorted to take her position in the front of the court room.And the second day of the trial began…..Mr. Sanchez stood from his seat like he’d just received divine inspiration. He's a fucking old bastard. “Your Honor,” he said, voice filled with confidence .“I would like to call an unexpected but crucial witness to the stand.”My hands slowly tightened into fists in my lap and I took a rasp breath. “Mr. Dwain Hartford.” He added. From where I

Chapter: Chapter 91 Eren Dwain and Javan took their seats behind Mr Sanchez and he turned around to acknowledge them ,a relief washed over his face. People started leaving one by one for the break,the courtroom getting crowded. Amidst the crowd,Javan glanced at me. A smirk was on his face,he even had the guts to wave at me. In that moment I had no doubt that it was Javan that leaked the photo. Felix ran errands for him after all. I ignored him and rushed towards Elle before she was taken away. The police officer stood in my way just as I got to her.“Sir you can't.” He said. I glared at him,brushing past him.“ Shut the fuck up and get out of my way.” He was about to protest again but I already had her in my arms. I buried her face in my chest , running my fingers down her hair. I hope it gives her some kind of comfort. “I'm hungry…I want potatoes and red meat.” She mumbled. I creased my brows as I stared down at her. I wasn't expecting her to say that. Then I looked over at the police off

Chapter: Chapter 90Eren One hour later … The courtroom was packed,the media swarmed the back rows. Felix Sanchez’s father sat in the front row with his lawyer and supporters, arms folded across his chest like a man who knew he'd already won. But I had different plans. The trial had been neutral so far , all the accusations they made against her were bullshit. The speech Mr Sanchez's lawyer gave was another whole bag of bullshit. Elizabeth's parents sat at the other rows,her mum had been crying since it started because she knew her daughter was innocent and all these allegations were just to drag her name in the mud. Elizabeth looked calm but I could read through the look in her eyes. She was tired , there were dark circles under her eyes and it looked like her eyes would fall close any moment now. I took a deep breath before my lawyer called for witnesses and the judge approved. I took the witness stand first. “The footage you’re about to see,” I told the judge, “was recorded the nig

Chapter: Chapter 89 ErenThe morning of the trial felt like armageddon .The air was thick and filled with anticipation and dread. I stood stiffly near the prison gates, hands jammed in my pockets and leaning on my car. I already quit my job at the precinct months ago so I wasn't allowed to escort the accused to court. The precinct had insisted they’d handle the prisoner transfer,that there was no need for me to be here. But they don't know what I know. Elizabeth’s parents had called and reported someone stalking their home.It had happened continuously for the last three days till the trial ,it was like the person wanted them to remain indoors. They called the cops and they called me too but off course the police couldn't do a fucking thing. The moment the police siren draws near the person disappears. But the police were too dumb, what stopped them from turning off the siren and catching whoever was stalking them?I took another deep breath, my muscles heavy with tension and worry.This wasn’t just

Chapter: Chapter 88Eren Mr Sanchez had a lot of influence and power especially with the authorities. From my observation they feared him and his money more than the law.The man was furious about his son's death and my guts told me he was more aware of his son's crime. The whole problem was worse than I thought. They didn't let anyone see Elizabeth, not even her parents. They were told to wait till court, which was three days from now. So right now ,I don't know how she's faring. I got a lawyer and Madison volunteered to testify as a victim of Felix. From what I see ,we have the upper hand if we play our cards right. Now we had to wait. It was fucking frustrating not been able to see her but I kept my cool. Her parents had put their hope in me and I wasn't going to let them down. I was back at the vault for the supposed meeting. Aslan and some lords were present dressed in black suits. They weren't much ,just the lords that were in opposition and a few that weren't.

Chapter: Chapter 81 Epilogue Sally I placed both hands on her shoulder. Her face was finally rid of makeup and now back to her natural state. " What have I always told you ?" Her shoulder slumped, but the next moment, the determination was back in her eyes ." Make a name for myself and people will fall at my feet. " I smiled and winked at her. "People, including Levi." She blushed a little and wrapped her hands around me. I returned the gesture and hugged her back. "Thanks, Mum. I think that's what I wanted to hear ." She whispered in my ears. "Your dress is pretty by the way." I chuckled. Immediately she jumped up and twirled. " I think I'll be in the spotlight today." She giggled. I threw the used wipes into the trash can as we both walked downstairs." the spotlight is meant for the bride and groom and that's certainly not you." She shrugged."I guess I'll have to create my spotlight." We both laughed until we got to the car. We wasted a lot of time and missed the church service. Now, we only had t

Chapter: Chapter 80 Epilogue Sally This was the hundredth time I had sighed today. I was waiting impatiently for my so-called daughters and Davi to get out of the house and get in the car. We were on our way to Stevens's wedding, and by the looks of things, we might get there when the reception was over. Four years had passed since my dad died and since Pamela was sent to the asylum. Yes, she had gone insane. And she got worse every single day. Steven had finally decided to move on and settle down, and now he was getting married to a very nice, bubbly woman. Haven was her name; she was a widow with a twelve-year-old daughter, Zoey. She was a great woman and took Levi as her own son. The nice little family was finally complete. Steven was actually glad that his wedding with Pamela didn't come through. That was actually a sign that they were not meant for each other. So now, Levi had a better person to call Mom. Cisco got tired of waiting for us so he took another car and left. He was S

Chapter: Chapter 79SallyI shifted closer to him and took in more of his scent. "Are you still not going to open it ?" He spoke just when I was about to drift into sleep.I knew what he was talking about. I opened my eyes, and my line of sight landed on the envelope on the bedside table. I had told him about the envelope after Dad died. I couldn't bring myself to open it after his funeral. I got up and grabbed the envelope. If I didn't do it now then it was never. "Do you want me to go .....I could just .." He insisted. "No, it's fine. I'm going to read it out loud anyway." Taking a deep breath, I opened it and began reading.My sweetheart, I should probably be dead by now. I asked Uncle Taze to give you this after my will has been read, so if you are reading this, then it means that I must have passed away. I'm writing from my hospital bed, I know that I'll get better. But if I don't then I want you to have this. I've not been a good mother to you, and I'm so sorry. I'm sorry for

Chapter: Chapter 78Sally Dad's funeral went well. There were a lot of people and it was even broadcast on the news. I never expected to see that many people; that only proved how popular my dad was. I received hundreds of messages and letters, some from people I didn't even know. In all, it was comforting and I really appreciated their effort. My dad left a will, he gave each of the girls separate businesses. And they were to take over when they turned eighteen. As his only child and heir, I took over the remaining corporation. Cisco became president and I, the president's wife and owner of our group. I stood on the balcony watching Cisco and our girls play under the cherry tree. Winter was drawing near so the ground was partially covered in snow. Cisco said that in a few days from now, it would be too freezing to go outside, so they wanted to enjoy the time they had left. I was glad because ever since my dad died, he had managed to make us smile. Nora and Mia were r

Chapter: Chapter 77SallyI don't know what was wrong with me. It wasn't like I wasn't aware that he cheated. It had been months since he married Pamela, almost a year even. I thought that I had gotten over it, even after he apologized. I had forgiven him...I told myself that I would let go and start over. But since my dad died, I have felt nothing but emptiness, pain and rage. I started having thoughts of just taking my children and leaving him. Letting go suddenly felt so painful and hard. I knew that I was still grieving, and maybe that was why I was feeling this way. But after hearing those things from Pamela, it opened up a fresh wound in my chest. I told myself not to let her get to me; this was what she wanted, but I just couldn't.It hurt; it hurt a lot. Other women would have divorced him no matter the situation, but why can't I just be like them and not think twice about divorcing him? Was I too stupid and blinded by my love Do I even still love him or was I doing this to s

Chapter: Chapter 76SallyTwo weeks later, I watched as Pamela was brought to me in chains. She was chained from her hands to her legs which indicated that she was a chronic murderer. She had been sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour, While her minions were sentenced to life imprisonment as well.What could I say, her new status befitted her. Cisco had been against my coming here. He said she already got what she deserved so there was no need for me to see her. I knew he did not want us to fight like we did when they were getting divorced. We didn't actually fight, I beat her up because she refused to sign the papers. She literally did not want to sign the divorce papers, claiming that she was being treated unfairly.It was so not like me to beat someone up; it was against my principles. I didn't even know I had the guts to beat a fellow woman up. Cisco, on the other hand, did nothing to stop me, mostly because he would receive all the blows instead of her,
