Esme I went into the bathroom to take a bath, sitting Inside the bathtub, I let my body relax and let the warmth of the water seep into my body. Rita and I had fallen into our respective rooms for the night's rest, the day had been long and we had a strenuous day ahead of us tomorrow. The next day I left home earlier than Rita the next day, Mr Van had called to inform me of the arrival of a client. I'd gotten to work in a rush and hours had passed but I was still with his client, not that I cared, my fee increased by the minute. " Mr Zanders," I called clasping my hands together. " You claim to not be involved in this accusation leveled against you right?" I asked and he nodded. " I need you to tell me the truth, I'm a lawyer and whether or not you committed the crime, I'm only left with the job of acquitting you," I urged. " If you don't tell me the truth, this could become tricky and could be used against us in court, I just need you to tell me the truth, my secretary will

Esme " Are you okay?" he asked as he got close enough, with his hand stroking my hair. " Ye..yes I am," I replied and he nodded, taking my hands to walk inside the court. " Mr Todd, what is your relationship with her? Sources have said that you both have been seen together in public many times. Is this just a lawyer-client relationship or there's more to it?" a male reporter asked. I turned to look at him, unsure of whether or not to give a response. However, his persistence was aimed at something else as he continued asking questions that were out of thought. " Are you both in a relationship, Esme Lost consciousness the last time she came to court, could it be abuse or pressure from Todd," another asked. Todd stopped in his tracks, while the elated reporter came running in expectancy of him answering her questions. He picked up the name tag on her chest, reading the name before saying. " Ashley Johnson, under the most basic human right, right to press, protection of mental h

Esme My phone rang and I walked to pick it up, to strings of unknown numbers. " Hi Esme," the voice said. " This is Zanders. I hope I'm not intruding," he said again. " No you aren't, I'll be there in a while," I said before hanging up. "Rita," I called when I was done dressing. Not too elaborate, I was wearing a jean, a big T-shirt, and a sneaker, it wasn't like I was there to make an impression it was infact the opposite, I needed him to back off from any sort of thought he was having about me. " Daamnn! Why'd you wear the same outfit as I am," Rita exclaimed on walking out of her room. I took a look at her outfit, and it had Indeed taken me by surprise. " Did you by chance stare at me while I was dressing up?” I asked raising my brows. " Pfft. I didn't even leave my room at all. You're the one who's been leaving," she retorted. " I only dressed this way because I was the third party and I couldn't dress too well," she defended herself. " Whatever," I replied and took the

Rita I'd thought I'd be able to keep up with hiding the hatred I had against the Zanders. From the moment I'd been assigned to go through his case file and source for the evidence to acquit him, the murderous intent of having him shot kept going in my mind. I thought I'd seen the last of him when the case was over until he asked Esme out for dinner, as much as I hated him, letting Esme go out with him alone was out of the question. I got home and submerged myself in the water. The gruesome memory of what had happened and what he had done kept replaying. ......................... " Mr. Zanders, please," I pleaded to no avail, my Father's already battered body was still being beaten so much that the flesh of his body scraped off with each lash of the belt. " I'll take the cane for him,please spare him! He's innocent!" I screamed again, attempting to free myself from the hand of the guards who wouldn't let me go. And he had breathed his last, the last strip of the belt had torn

RitaThe door was opened by Mr. Zanders and he was shocked to the core at the sight of the bodies in the room.And it had taken a lot of luck not to get burnt in the room as he lit a match and threw it into the room, while he made his escape, I watched the body of my parent be burnt in the pyre he set ablaze.Grandma had brought me up after we escaped Germany and absconded to Italy, the years had passed by and her health was deteriorating, I naturally had to step up and be the breadwinner of the family until Mr Todd settled everything for me.And when he had tried to get close to Esme, it was only a matter of time before I killed him myself, I decided until I wasn't able to take it anymore, the sound of his screams sounded nothing to the way my parents had begged him to believe them.Years had passed and he must have done so much evil that he couldn't recognize me, but I could, the scar of the cut I'd given him was still there and so was the scar of the knife that plunged into my skin

EsmeI thought I had it worst in life until I listened to Rita's Story, real-life murder, mutilation, abuse, and rape. I thought I'd seen the worst.I picked up my phone and put a call through to Todd, Rita would have been the perfect person to source our the evidence of his crimes but I wanted it to be a surprise." I'll handle it, Esme," Todd said from over the phone, he's already being treated at the hospital, I want to give him the illusion of freedom and when he comes to stroke for revenge, I'll break him for her," he said and I nodded." Are you okay?" he asked." Yes I'm, Rita's at home and I'm the only one here, so it's quite boring," I replied." I'll have Adam come pick you up, you don't have anything to do, do you?" he asked and I replied negative." Alright he said, take care, Poppy Min," he said before hanging up.I placed my head on the table, letting slumber take over me." Miss Esme," a knock came on the door and Adam walked in." Good day Adam," I greeted and he stoo

Esme“Peach," his voice reverberated through the room."Your secretary asked that I wait outside your office or I leave and come back later because you're in a meeting," I said and stared at the secretary who was already tuning back meek." Your finger opens the door. I'll be with you immediately," he said and I nodded." By the way what's your favorite flavor of ice cream?" I asked watching as the secretary was already beginning to get sweaty." Miss Esme," she called, and I turned back to look at her." Is there anything I can help you with," I asked raising an eyebrow." Um I didn't kn..know.. that you were close to Mr. Todd," she said almost teary-eyed." You're new, yeah? I asked and she nodded.I'd almost forgotten that the previous secretary was probably dead or somewhere in Alaska serving her life imprisonment jail term." Learn the ropes young lady, I'm not kind enough to let something like this slide by but because it's a good day and you're still learning the ropes, by the

Esme" Yes I am,” he admitted and I almost choked on the egg in my mouth." I can't believe that!" I said and tapped his shoulders lightly." Yes you can," he said and I smiled before turning back to eat." I should go back home, it's late," I said." You don't need to. I called Rita and I've told her You're with me and will not be going home tonight," he said back." Are you not busy, I'm sure you have a lot of work to do, I don't want to be a hindrance to you," I said." I've been working nonstop for more than 8 years Esme, and I'm glad you're the one I get to spend my break with," he said and rubbed his hand on my cheeks." Hey, um can I ask you what you're doing for Rita, I need to know where I can step in," I said." You trust me right?" He asked." Yes I do," I replied looking up at him." I'll let you know if there's anything you need to do," he said and held me closer to himself.His smooth, calming tone poured out into my ears, somehow sounding like the hot version of a stra
