Confusion is plaguing my being. Who could be here at this time?"I'll get it," With that, I was about to rise up from my place, but before I could, Elena beat me up."Ma'am I'll get it,"Yes, Elena doesn't call me by my name in front of others. I have tried to convince her quite a few times that it's alright to call me by my name, not only when we are alone, but when we are with others too. But every time she bluntly refuses me, it is clear that she wasn't so fond of the idea.I know she fears Sandra's reaction and I don't blame her at all for that. If there is one common thing both mother and son cannot abide, it is lack of discipline. Somewhere I still think Sandra wouldn't really care who anyone addressed me, but that's just me.Xavier lifted himself from his place after he was done with his dinner. He had hardly taken two steps when Elena sauntered in, but this time she was accompanied by someone. I couldn't get a clear view of her face as Elena was blocking her view.My breath hi

Supporting the tray with my right hand. I lifted my left hand and tapped on the wooden door feebly and patiently waited for the door to open or any kind of indication for me to enter, but all I got was silence even after waiting for a minute or so.Lifting my hand, I knocked again, but this time with little force after coming to the conclusion they might not have heard it. But again met with the same result; pin-drop silence.Maybe I should enter inside. As soon as the thought entered my head, it vanished instantly at the thought of Xavier getting angry. A shiver ran through my spine at the image of an angry Xavier. He doesn't appreciate me anywhere around his room, let alone inside.A sudden sadness loomed over my being. Maybe they didn't want anyone to disturb them. Of course, it's normal that he wants to spend some time alone with his baby momma. After all, this is his first baby.The baby which I wasn't able to give him. I should be happy for him, for them, but I can't seem to. Am

The room was surrounded by awkward silence. Dad had us gather in the living room to discuss what had taken place yesterday. Everyone was waiting patiently for Dad to speak up. Dad, on the other hand, didn't seem like he was going to say anything anytime soon.My eyes roamed around the room and fell on my husband's frame standing next to May. He was wearing a plain white T-shirt and dark grey sweatpants. As always, he was looking too ethereal to belong on this planet. He can wear a sack and he will still slay it.My, on the other hand, was wearing a crop top and booty short which was barely covering her ass. Her face was bare without any makeup and I would be lying if I said she wasn't glowing. The petite brunette had certainly been blessed with her share of beauty. No wonder Xavier is attracted to her.My gaze dropped to their linked hands. She was clinging onto him like a koala bear. A tint of unwanted irritation passed through my body."Xander, why are we here?" Sandra spoke up, sla

I am currently planning lunch for May and Xavier since no one bothered to come downstairs for lunch. Ruth took mom's lunch to her room as I was sure I was the last person she wanted to see right now or ever. She is already upset and I want to trouble her further.Soniya is not at the house. So that left me and dad. The lunch was filled with awkward silence. Not a single word was exchanged between us. For once, I was actually grateful for that, even though I don't normally do well with awkward silence. I don't know what I would have said if dad wanted to have a conversation."Hope," I heard dad calling me out.He almost sounded nervous, maybe even afraid of my reaction. My eyes pinched in frustration. Everything was okay. Why did he have to start a conversation suddenly?"Yes dad", I made sure to keep my tone soft.I heard him clear his throat. "You're angry with me?" Was I?Honestly speaking, I didn't know if I was or not. I didn't know how to react or feel about the sudden informatio

As usual, my eyes cracked open wide due to the loud ringing of the alarm. Letting out a groan of irritation, I reached over to slap the snooze button, putting a halt to the loud irritating sound.I got off the bed and paddled straight to the bathroom. Peeling my nightie and undergarments, I dropped them into the laundry basket. Turning the shower on, I walked down the spray when the temperature was to my liking.After I was done showering. I dressed in a simple black maxi dress. Once I was satisfied with everything, I headed to the kitchen. These days I have had to wake up extra early since May got hungry early in the morning. Honestly speaking, it irritates me since I was never an early bird, but what can be done? She is going to be a mother and she needs to eat.No matter what she has done to me, I still don't want any harm to her, especially her baby. He/She has done nothing to deserve anyone's hatred. The only people that are responsible for the mess are I, May, and Xavier.Yes, I

A familiar voice boomed, halting our heated discussion and demanding everyone's attention. In a matter of seconds, the familiar voice had taken Sandra's undivided and unwanted attention from me to him. I knew who it was even without looking at the person.Something tells me a big drama was about to happen.Unwillingly, I followed Sandra's line of vision to find the familiar sight of dad standing as anticipated. The tension in the room intensified at the view of dad's giant frame and confused swirling green orbs."I asked you something? What is happening here?" His voice had my heartbeat accelerate as if I was caught doing something I shouldn't.Before anyone could utter anything, in walked Xavier. His steps halted right beside dad, sensing the tension in the room."I'm asking for the last time. Don't make me ask again," Only when a voice snapped out of my reviver was when I comprehended I was gawking at him.My head snaps back to dad. Judging by the wrinkle lines distorting his forehe

I dragged my body out of bed and instantly met with a slight burning between my legs. I blush from head to toe remembering our passionate night. He had fucked me into submission. I could still feel his sinister hands roaming shamelessly all over my body, leaving a sizzling feeling.I move towards the bathroom, eager for the hot shower after yesterday's event. I was still covered with sweat and cum. Crossing the threshold into the bathroom, she stopped to look at herself in the mirror. My left cheek had already bruised and swelling up.Peeling my clothes, I threw them in the basket before I stepped into a warm shower. Once, I was done with the shower. I put on a random dress and limped all the way down the stairs.Right as I finished descending the stairs. I was greeted with the sight of a very happy and cheerful May and Sandra. They were engaged in some conversation. Their heads turned towards me as they felt my presence. The smile on their faces faded in a matter of seconds, making t

The first thing I did after I entered the room was, dropped my butt on the mattress. My hand clasped over my mouth to stifle the pained sob spilling like heavy rainfall.Relax Hope everything is fine. Please don't cry, you are stronger than this. I kept on chanting trying to reassure myself. I don't know how long I sat there trying to console myself but my muscles, veins, and nerves felt numb.Slowly numbness left my body and a sickening emotion bubbled my gut making me feel nauseous. My head was throbbing and my throat was hoarse. I could barely breathe. I was sure I would faint any minute now. My fingers were rapidly trembling and I had to clench my fingers into a fist trying to gain control of my trembling finger and fortunately, it worked.I rose from the bed and was about to take a step towards the bathroom but the sound of the creak opening of the door got my attention. Second, later Xavier emerged from the small door.What does he want now?His presence always brought an overwh
