★LEONA★My inexplicable happiness rolled on as Kimberly introduced me to her friends and relatives. My mind was still reeling in my engagement to Dave that I paid less attention to the introduction Kimberly was doing. My thumb kept rolling on the shimmering object on my middle finger. I haven't taken a proper look at it yet.I didn't expect Dave to do something like that and if it were to be a week back, I would've said no to him point-blank. Well, I could've still done it because marriage and settling are the least things in my mind now. I mean how can one think of marriage when there is death probably lurking somewhere in a corner?.All the same, I know all my fears will happen some way or the other so why not give him some Joy when things seem like they're calm now? Until whatever that will come comes, I will continue to do whatever will make him happy. I will live in the moment and make the best out of it.Katherine complained of a headache when she was stopped
★LEONA★His lips curved into a smile then he began to laugh.Oh no!Has he lost it?God, please let it not be it. He promised to help me and now he got mad just by hearing of the disappearance of our dear ones. How will I handle my mad fiance and a psychopath Lando? And how will I rescue my people when I don't even know my way around this city?Oh, Lord! How many tribulations shall I face? I looked up to the heavens before walking to Dave."Are you out of your mind for real? That's why you're laughing right? I heard that's how madness begins but before you start taking your things off, I need to take you back inside so that your parents will lock you…""What are you saying Leo? I am not mad." He laughed."That's what all mad people say. They claim not to be mad but they are. I'm so sorry. I didn't know this is going to affect you this way." I cried. I can't believe Dave has suddenly gone mad."I'm not mad Leo. Now stop crying.""No, you are! You laughed. Who laug
★LEONA★"Well, I've always made love to you though. I never fucked you." He whispered as his perfect lips trail kisses in the valley between my breasts.My hands move to his firm arms. "Dave, did you wet your bandage?""No, I didn't.""Are you okay? I asked you if it was painful earlier but were you honest?" I'm yet to see any sign of him hurting since he never showed any. He's using his arm as if nothing happened to it."It hurts... but just a little. ""Then you shouldn't be stressing it. It might just..""It will stiffen if I don't try to use it so stop worrying. Now you won't talk again. I just want to hear you moan my name."He returned his lips between my breasts and my hands moved to his back.What we just did was so rough and intense but this time, it was so much more. He's been gentle, he's been rough, but this…he has been all of it but this was spectacular. It's as though I'm the only person in the world right now...his world, and he's worshipping me
★LEONA★"Hold on? Who said I came to take you? I have other plans." He licked his lips and took a long lustful stare at me.Chills ran down my spine as he began to approach me. His eyes continued to roam and I felt naked and exposed.He has never looked at me this way before and he doing it now, scares me.I hope it's not what I'm thinking."Keep your distance, Lando. Don't come to me." I stepped further into the kitchen."Why? Why Leona." He still wore that annoying cruel smirk."You allowed him to touch you. Why can't I do the same?" I shake my head. So this is it. He has come to rape me?"Why are you going away from me? Please don't." He laughed."Too bad Dave is not here to watch how good I can actually make you feel.""What...what are you saying?""I want to fuck you! That's what I'm saying! I regret never touching you and call me a pussy for that. If I did, you wouldn't have run away from me and your work. Forgive me for not giving you what you wanted..."
LEONAThe door burst open and my heart sank.This was not what I expected. He was looking so terrible. The suit he wore earlier was torn badly, his eyes were redder than Lando's, and the white shirt he wore looked as if it was dipped in blood. There were splits and cuts on his face and any other place which was not in my view. His knuckles were busted and blood was oozing from his split up lips. My heart bled, burned, and went out to him. How did this happen?"Dave," I whispered and though he didn't hear me, his eyes moved to me but he quickly looked away after scanning my body for any scratch I guess.Slowly I made to get up from the bed but before I could make any real movements, I got elbowed directly in the gut."Where the fuck do you think you're going?" He snarled and I fell back to the bed, clutching my stomach as great pain cut through my abdomen.I saw Dave rush to me but a gun was pulled against his forehead by Lando."This is not the time, Dave. Now move back or I shoot!"
★DAVE★I was torn between who to follow as Leo was being pulled away and the ambulance was about to take off. I have to be with one of them one way or the other but who?On the other hand is my pregnant Leona who was being arrested and her brother who was badly injured and needed urgent medical attention. Where should I be?As I was busy thinking about what to do, I saw Leona going down and the police were just watching.I rushed to her before she could make it to the ground."Leo," I called but she didn't wake up."Get the damn cuff from her hand!" I screamed , grabbing a bunch of keys hanging on the officer's belt hole. I found the key, unlocked it and quickly removed it.The ambulance was already gone so I took her to the police van and they followed the ambulance.She was wet from below and when I removed my hand, it was stained with blood.I stared at her for any injury but I saw only bruises on her face, arms, neck and that was all.She was wet in between he
★DAVE★ "Where are you taking me?" She asked when I entered the hospital with her.I'm clueless as to how to break this news to her and I don't want to imagine her reaction.I managed to retain the body from being transferred to the morgue so that she could see Raymond for the last time.I held her hand tight, then squeezed it when we got to the door."Why are we here Dave? Is Raymond inside?" She pushed the door open and entered in with me.When her eyes met the covered body on the bed, she tensed and stood transfixed to the same spot without blinking. The expression on her face was unreadable therefore I couldn't make out what she might be thinking but her action was loud.I remained silent behind her for some minutes before her legs started functioning and she walked towards the bed."Who's this Dave? And why's the person covered?" She looked at me and I saw her gulp nervously."Raymond," I whispered."Raymond? Then why did you cover him? He's going to suffo
★LEONA★ "I'm sorry Leona but Raymond is gone. He is DEAD!" Dave screamed.Those words were the heaviest blow I ever received in my entire life. So many minutes, I forgot to breathe and my brain went blank, and couldn't comprehend his words. I cried bitterly from my bleeding heart to a point where no tears came and I couldn't breathe again. Dave couldn't comfort me either.I mean how can Raymond die? He's my brother. Why should he die? Why must my only brother die? I don't understand any of this.He was my only support, the only shoulder I could lean on freely and pour out all my troubles.He was everything to me and the best thing I ever had. I didn't imagine for a moment that I was going to lose him one day. How did all this happen?Losing my baby was the last straw. I felt as if I was cursed, an outcast. I felt like a stroke of bad luck.I couldn't cry anymore and no matter how hard I tried to squeeze out some tears they never came and instead, I just stare
