It was days after Rebecca returned back home, she had finally agreed to move in with Eric after giving it enough thought, and she picked today to move her things to his house.

Eric was busy, there was an urgent board meeting so he couldn’t be with her to help her pack her stuff.

Whitney and Ella took a day off work just to help her and she was indeed grateful for the friends she had.

As Whitney carried the last box into the truck, she spotted a teddy bear bulging out, it couldn’t fully enter the carton. She pulled it out and her eyes dimmed the moment she saw it.

She dropped it in the box after a thorough stare at it, and then slowly moved her gaze to Rebecca who was happily chatting with Ella few distance away.

No matter how she tried to understand her friend, she just couldn’t understand her to a point. Rebecca had always reveal her hatred for Axel because of what he did in the past, but why did she still have this teddy with her? Why not thrash it?

She was there when Axel handed th

    ”Nice flowers.” Wendy commended as soon as Rebecca entered the room. Rebecca on the other hand didn’t pay attention to what was said. She was lost in a world of her own thought. She didn’t see the face of the biker, but from the sound of his voice, she could tell who it was. It was a voice she would recognize anytime, any day. The voice of the devil who haunts her in her dream. A pat on the shoulder brought her back to reality. She jerked and the flower slipped from her hands, but Wendy caught it before it could fall to the floor.“Thank you.” She mumbled.“You are welcome… By the way, was it Mr Eric that sent you the flowers?” Wendy wanted to know so badly. Because why didn’t the delivery guy hand over the flower to her? Why did he insist on giving it to Rebecca himself? Wendy thought it was something important and secretive, but it was just flowers. Or was there any other package given to Rebecca? Did she hide it? Wendy was so curious.“No.” Rebecca’s short reply added to her

    As Rebecca walked out of the house, Wendy tried as much as possible to stop her but all to no avail.“Mr Eric would get angry if you leave without telling me your whereabouts. By the way, it’s getting late and he’ll return soon.” She had tried all she could to persuade her but Rebecca was stubborn. She needed answers and she would get it. She took a taxi to Ella’s apartment and fortunately the sitting room door was opened slightly, indicating Ella was home. As she was about to enter the living room, she heard familiar voices chatting, more like an argument. She wanted to go inside and see what was making them raise their voice at each other, but her steps halted when she heard these words, “You can’t lie to me! I know you called Axel.” Her heart skipped a beat at the mention of his name. What were they talking about? And who called him? Unable to suppress her curiosity, she walked into the house and the two girls were shocked to see her.“Rebecca?” Whitney called, flabbergaste

    Whitney and Ella could be seen pacing to and fro in front of the ward Rebecca was in. Immediately Rebecca passed out, they called for emergency and the ambulance arrived in no time. The doctor in charge of Rebecca’s treatment walked out of the ward and they rushed to him immediately.“What happened to her? Will she be okay?” Ella questioned. The doctor’s lips curled up in a charming smile, and they both wondered why he was smiling in such situation.“It’s good to see you genuinely worried about her, she’s so lucky to have both of you.” He commended. “Thank you, but is she okay?” Whitney asked. She wasn’t concerned about his comments on their friendship, that was the least of her problems, but she also didn’t want to sound rude to him.“She’s fine. Her body reacted to shock… By the way, what was going on before she passed out?” The doctor asked keenly.“We were having a normal conversation. Now, if you don’t mind, can we go see her?” Whitney asked.“Sure, you can.” “Thank you.” El

    Rebecca pulled her wrist away from Axel’s hand and then moved away from him.“My husband is here, please leave.” The urgency in her voice wasn’t unnoticed. She watched as Axel covered his face with the hoodie and left the ward silently, which was strange. Because she knew Axel so well, he would have tried to protest and won’t leave till she pleads. Something was strange, but she just didn’t know what it was.****** Eric was getting tired of Whitney’s narration, he needed to see Rebecca and Whitney was delaying him by telling story of how Rebecca passed out in the middle of their conversation. Earlier, he was getting ready to leave the company when he received a call from Wendy that Rebecca left home. He called Rebecca non stop but she didn’t pick, he called Whitney too and she also didn’t pick. It was only Ella that answered her call and told him Rebecca was admitted at the hospital. He headed straight to the hospital and met Whitney and Ella at the reception, they were surpri

  • CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL   A solution

    The drive to Eric’s house was awkward, their last conversation had ended and no one said a word to each other. The girls had a lot on their mind, but they couldn’t say it out because of the presence of Eric and his driver whom were at the front seats. Rebecca was still feeling dizzy, she just couldn’t wait to get home so she would sleep. She had been so stressed lately, and she wished she could go back to when things were just between her, her friends and Eric. She didn’t know why Axel had to return, because ever since he came back, she had lost her peace. They arrived home in no time and after having dinner, she went straight to her room and slept off. While Whitney and Ella were taken to the guest room. She slept well that night and when she woke up, it was already morning and Eric wasn’t in the room. She stood from the bed and went to check the bathroom, but he wasn’t there.“Where did he go to so early?” She muttered, going to take her phone from the bedside table. The d

  • CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL   Rebecca’s plan 1

    It was her final decision, and no matter what, she would go through with the plan. She wouldn’t trade her peace of mind for anything. “Are you sure?” Whitney asked. The plan sounded good but it was scary. How would they find his address? What if the plan fall through? Surely he’s going to come for her and he meant what he said the previous day. No, Rebecca wasn’t sure. He was the same guy she used to love, he was the same guy that treated her like a queen. ‘He betrayed you!’ Her inner mind yelled, more like a reminder, and her heart clenched when she recalled what happened six years ago. FLASHBACK Sixteen years old Rebecca was seated on the swing with her grip tightened against the two ropes. She wasn't swinging it, she was just there. That was the only calm place in the orphanage, the other places were filled with kids, and she didn't want to be in a noisy place at that moment. She had a sad look on her face, and one could tell something was bothering her. She spotted t

    AXEL’S PRIVATE BUILDING* In a large bright room, Axel was asleep on the bed and Trent was seated close to the bed. His gaze fixed on Axel the whole time, especially the arm that was wrapped with a bandage. Axel slowly opened his eyes and the first thing it came in contact with was Trent’s face. He tried to sit upright but pain hit from his arm. He groaned and still sat upright, resting his back on the bed frame. “I’m wondering if you’re an imposter, cause this isn’t the Axel I used to know.” Trent said, giving him and indifferent look. Axel didn’t question his statement, he knew what Trent meant by that. Axel Thomas Leonard wouldn’t go for an exchange and get shot in the process. He does the shooting, not the other way round. Last night, after returning from the hospital where he went to see Rebecca, he went for a drug exchange, with few of his men. Things turned out nasty, and he got shot in the arm. “What were you thinking about? Because you were clearly not in your

    Rebecca checked her wristwatch for the umpteenth time. It was few minutes past 10 and Axel had confirmed he would come, but he was no where to be seen. She and her friends were at the back of the restaurant and the place was dark, there was no street light placed directly to the place. Ella’s phone rang for the twentieth time and they didn’t need to check to know who was calling.“Eric is probably worried. You shouldn’t have switched off your phone.” Ella queried. Rebecca had her phone switched off because she didn’t want Eric to question her whereabouts. When Eric couldn’t reach her, he began raining calls on Ella. She didn’t know what she would tell him when she gets home, and she cared less. She would think of something after Whitney is finally free from trouble, but for now, she was concerned about Axel’s arrival. She was about to dial his number when she heard the sound of a motorcycle approaching. The motorcycle stopped in front of them and she instantly knew it was Ax

    Axel moved his hand away from her hair. He had a confused look on his face. Ever since she returned from the mission, he could tell something was off about her, but he just didn’t know what it was. And suddenly asking for time alone proved his suspicions right.“You aren’t okay being here?” Rebecca shook her head. “Not that. I just need some time alone to reflect on myself.” “You don’t have time Rebecca, you need to get your father’s properties as fast as you can, hence you’ll lose it forever.” He warned, his eyes narrowing.“How?” She questioned curiously.“You don’t need to know about that. You just have to…”“That’s the problem, Axel.” She cuts in. “It’s frustrating how you keep leaving me in the dark and still want me to cooperate. If you’re really helping me, then I don’t think you should hide stuff like this from me. At this point, I think you are more concerned about yourself and whatever you are doing now is only going to benefit you and…” she stopped to catch her breat

  • CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL   She’s acting strange

    She wanted to have a private talk with Fernando, something Axel and Kira wouldn’t know about. Besides, she wasn’t in the mood to continue with the mission, she would do what she came here for initially. She picked the smashed buds from the floor and went to flush it in the toilet to avoid suspicions. When she was done, she washed her face with water and took a breath. As she returned to the study room, Fernando had his gaze on her.“You promised you weren’t going to cry.” He said, upon noticing the water on her face.“I didn’t.” She replied calmly. “About what you were saying, do you have any idea on who wanted him dead, and why?” Those were the questions bothering her. If it really wasn’t an accident then they had to be a reason for it. Fernando cleared his throat and the two men at the door left the room immediately, leaving only her with him. He shifted closer to the edge of the couch and placed his hands on his laps. “What I’m about to tell you will come as a shock

    When she got to where the men were, they pointed guns at her. “Who are you?” They asked in unison.“I am Rebecca Lu…”“Don’t.” She heard Kira’s voice from the bus. “Don’t say your surname.”“I am Rebecca.”One of the men scoffed. “Who cares about your fucking name?”“But you asked who I was and…”“Your identity!” He said firmly. “Is the boss expecting you?” “No, I…” Their grips on their gun tightened. “Then what are you doing here?”“Can you please call him and let him know Rebecca is here? Please.” To her surprise, they didn’t bulge. She watched as the guy touched the bud in his ear and spoke to whoever was at the other end.“Rebecca who?” She kept quiet, waiting for Kira to tell her what to say, since she stopped her earlier from saying her surname.“The daughter of his late friend, Michael.” She repeated what Kira told her. She noticed how the men observed her as she said that, and she couldn’t help but wonder why. The men exchanged looks after one of them whi

    Immediately Rebecca heard that, she pushed Kira’s hands off her shoulders and moved back. Her brows furrowed, forming wrinkles and from the look on her face, one could tell she was displeased by what she just heard.“You planned this with Axel, right?” She accused.“No. Axel doesn’t know about this, he doesn’t even care about the pregnancy…”“Then why do you care? Why do you want me to get rid of it?” She fired. Kira hit her forehead in frustration. “Here we go. This is why I never wanted to agree to help you.”“So getting rid of my baby is your definition of help?” She scoffed. “Make it make sense.”“Yes. The child belongs to Eric, and nothing can be hidden under the sun. He’s definitely going to find out one day, and that’s like an advantage to him cause with the child he has high possibilities of taking over your father’s properties.” Kira explained detailedly. Rebecca wasn’t still convinced, not for a bit. “Who is going to tell him? You? Axel? Aside both of you no one else

  • CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL   An alliance

    Rebecca stood there in silence, contemplating on what to do. From Axel’s recent behavior, she began doubting if he really wanted to help her, or he needed her to accomplish his goals, because everything was always about him. But then, she didn’t have anywhere else to go, or who to help her. A thought suddenly crossed her mind. Fernando! He was a very good friend of her dad, and she was sure he would help her if she came clean to him. But then, how would she locate him? She turned, scanning the environment with her eyes, and her gaze landed on Axel who was at the shooting range alone. Taking a deep breath, she approached him just when he was about to shoot.“Hey.” She cooed. He spared her a stare before focusing on what he was doing.“I’m sorry about earlier. I just…” she inhaled deeply. “I just didn’t know what to do. Fernando was so nice to me and dad and hearing about him after a long time might have sparked my reaction.” He didn’t reply her. He had his gaze focuse

    She was taken aback by his request. Steal? She had never stolen anything and Axel knew that. But what could the thing be and why didn’t Axel send someone else? Many thoughts filled her mind as she waited for him to explain further. She wrapped her hands around her breasts, not because she was shy, but because she suddenly felt cold. She clenched her thighs tightly, trying so hard to surpress the urge to grab Axel and make him do the dirtiest stuff she had in mind. Axel didn’t speak, there was a deafening silence between them and she knew he wouldn’t say anything if she refused to speak first.“Steal what?” He moved closer to her. “I’ll tell you full details later, but for now….” He grabbed her neck roughly and a light gasped escaped her lips. “Let’s make you cum.” With his hand still on her neck, he pushed her to the wall and her back hit the wall roughly.“Shouldn’t we go to a room.” She asked beneath her breath. She was already feeling the tension.“Why would

    When she got outside, she let out a deep breath.“Fuck. That was tough.” She muttered. If it wasn’t for the signals Axel gave her, she wouldn’t had been able to handle the situation. She noticed the two guys outside bowed immediately she stepped out and she’s left with a question.How powerful was Michael Lucas before he died? He seemed to be feared and respected and despite being his daughter, she felt she didn’t know him well. The only side she knew was his jovial side, and his caring side. If only death didn’t take him from her. Her lips pressed as she recalled the day of the accident and she wished she died alongside her parents because life was too harsh on her. After one last glance at the men, she walked away. She was able to locate the swimming pool after wandering about the big compound. She sat by the pool side, took off her sandals and dipped her legs in the pool, feeling the coolness.Goosebumps of cold prickled her skin. It felt refreshing and when sh

    Rebecca stepped out of the bathroom, her body dripping wet of water. Instead of wrapping her body with the towel, she wrapped her head with the only towel available. She was surprised to see Kira in the room, seated on the bed with a black dress and sandal beside her. The room was specially assigned to her by Axel to stay for the meantime. It was spacious and simple, just as she liked it. They weren’t irrelevant decors, just the lamp nn the bedside table and a small book shelf which was filled with books, then other necessary stuff. She liked reading and was sure Axel gave her this room on purpose.“You can’t be walking around naked.” Kira shrugged as Rebecca walked towards her.“Didn’t know someone was here.” Rebecca replied as she picked the gown from the bed.“Courtesy?” “Axel wants you to put it on.” Kira informed. She observed the dress for a while before moving her gaze to Kira. “It’s late for goodness sake, why should I put this on?” It was a long black sleeveless go

    She didn’t want to seem weak, she didn’t want him to see her tears. Quickly, she turned and headed for the door, but her steps halted when he spoke up.“There’s no lady.” She didn’t know whether to continue or stay back. She wiped her tears and slowly turned. “I’m not dumb, Axel. Don’t try to cover up.”“I’m not covering up.” His voice was low. He took slow strode towards her and when he got to her front, he grabbed her wrist, his fingers stroking the butterfly tattoo.“When I first saw this, I was excited because it means you do not hate me as you claim…” He looked up and found her staring at him with confusion displayed in her brown eyes.“You have all the reason to hate me, Becca, you really do. But please…” he took a deep breath, a bit hesitant. “Do not hate me for long.” Rebecca was too confused to speak. She didn’t know what to say or how to react. Indeed she hated him for what he did, but for some days now she had been seeing him differently, even after persuading
