Ivy” I heard someone shaking me, I was deep in my slumber.
“Ivy” I groaned as the whisper got persistent. I pulled the blanket over my head.“Ivy “the voice was deep and whisky as it pulled the blanket away from me, I bolted upright, and switched the lamp near my bedside.“what do you want?” I nearly screamed,“shhh, you are eligible for clubs right” I looked up to find Mark staring at me.“it’s late Mark, let me sleep,” I said as l pulled the blankets over my body.“are you this boring? Let’s go to the club, I don’t have a partner, I promise I will bring you back before morning” he said as he pulled me out of the blankets.“fine wait, I need to wear clothes first” he gave me an overall look and went straight to my monarch. He opened it and threw the first thing he came across.“wear that, I am running out of time,” he said as walked out of the room. I sighed as I pulled the skirt and top.“let’s go?” I said as I closed the door. He didn’t even bother looking at me as he sauntered away.Lights swirled, music pounded, and for a moment I stopped and stared. Amazed by the frenetic atmosphere. My eyes adjusted to the dim light, the club was quite large, with a central dance floor surrounded by a seating area and an ultra modern-looking bar made out of chrome and glass.Fascinated by the vibrant energy of the people on the dance floor, I watched with admiration and a touch of envy as a woman lifted her arms high and swayed her hips in a blatant invitation to her partner. Wondering what it would be like to be that uninhibited, I watched a few others, seeking clues as to how they managed to dance in heels.“fancy joining them? Care to dance?” came a slurred male voice from beside me, and I turned to find myself uncomfortably close to a tall, handsome man. I was sure I walked in here with Mark behind me but somehow he had disappeared. I cursed slowly.“oh, no. I ain’t on my own" realising that his eyes were fastened to the dim in my cleavage, I struggled against the impulse to cover myself.“and he left you alone?” He moved dangerously close.“is he a fool” l slid back my gaze to the crowd and I felt a sense of relief as I saw Mark saunter onto the dance floor? Relief turned to sick disappointment when I saw the redhead hooked onto his waist. I narrowed my eyes at her.“I see him" A spark of anger inhibiting my flagging courage, I clutched my bag tightly and walked onto the dance floor, weaving my way through swaying couples till I reached Mark.I tapped his shoulder and he looked at me, his face covered in annoyance.“what I’ m busy,” he said as he pulled her closer. This was my first time in a club and he had dragged me out of the comfort of my bed.“you left me?” I said. his only response was to shrug his broad shoulders.“some of us need to get laid” I froze when he said that. I watched as he turned the girl around, watched as she ground him.“go Ivy look for someone to fuck you”: his words were slurred. Disbelief and reality sank in. I was all on my own. A wave of nausea almost overtook and I had to go to the bar and sulked all night. I watched them dance and I swear I saw Mark reaching for his private parts before whispering something to the girl. She giggled and slapped his manhood naughty before pulling him away from the crowds.I sighed.“This means my ride home is gone, “I clicked my tongue as I followed them. He’ll no be he going to let me stay in here all alone and he expects me to go home on my own. I hurried down the corridor they had used. I stopped outside.I walked towards the car, “At least he had the descent to leave the car here. The cold night chill embraced me. I pulled the jacket closer to my body and marched to the car. I froze as I watched the car shaking. I looked around for security but there was none, my uncle had abandoned me. I sighed and walked to the car, my big girl pants on me.“who is there?” I called out. No one answered but the painting and the groaning was getting louder as i approached the car.“your naughty girl, you didn’t have a pant all along?” he said as he slapped her ass. It vibrated forcing him to groan.“jelly butt” he groaned as he flashed his manhood out of his pants. I swallowed, my mind telling me to look away to walk away, that I was invading their privacy but my body remained rooted.“See how wet I am? You have been teasing me, just put it in” the girl said as she raised one of her legs and placed it in the bin. Her vagina flashed and my eyes bulged out of their sockets. It was huge.“hi__ huge, Mark it’s huge “, I said as I felt air departing from my lungs. They had just abused my brains. I swayed slightly the last thing I remembered it that I will never speak of this nor remember it. Men have guts.Mark’s Provo “ Nah my back hurts” I groaned as I set up right. My head was spinning. My eyes hurt. I had drunk at least four bottles of wine last night. My eyes were bloodshot. I touched the bridge of my nose and cursed. “ daddy you said one should not curse__” she stood at the door, a cool in hand. “ Sorry, Princess. Good morning.” I said, motioning her to come to me. She dashed to where I was. She peered at me, her huge eyes boring into mine. “ morning father.” She smiled. “ you came back late yesterday, I waited for you. Yesterday was your birthday and you weren’t here to cut the cake.” She brushed her doll. “ I even baked it for you and even decorated the room downstairs.” My heart broke into million pieces. She had been waiting for me. My little Annabelle. But the most heartbreaking was my birthday. Had I lost family and friends over the past few years for them to forget? Maybe I wasn’t cut for love, maybe in the future I would be but now all I need is to focus on my bab
Ivy's Provo It was a bright day. A weekend to myself. Annabelle had returned to her father. He had been distantly lately. The last day I saw him was when he came to my house to make me a millionaire. He always sends his head of security with Annabelle. Thinking about Mark wasn’t good. I sighed and moved my trolley of food from one row to another. “ excuse me, can I get those pickles,” I did to the heavily pregnant woman instinct of me. “ sure” she moved aside and I froze. “ Trisha?” my voice was a mare whisper. I didn’t know whether to be happy or to be angry with her. “ Ivy?” she looked shocked to see. “ you have changed?” it was more of a question than a statement. “ so have you, how many kids do you now have?” j asked. “ This is my fourth pregnancy.” She flashed me a smile but I didn’t miss the mock irony in her voice. “ that is great!” l forced enthusiasm in my voice. “ how many children do you have now Ivy?” I watched as she rubbed her stomach. Since when had she become
Mark’s ProvoI stared at the court order.“ the nerve of that woman!” I gulped the whisky and poured another one. I didn’t want her to stay away from her child but this.. this was going to ruin my reputation, my businesses. How could she do this without talking to me first? I would have given her permission to see her daughter. To heck with her and her law degree. She was going to fight to her last blood.I gulped the last glass and made my way to Annabelle‘s room. She was fast asleep. I sighed, the travelling up and down was confusing her life. She needed to settle down. Maybe giving Ivy custody of the child would be better. She would settle down. She won’t have to move with me every time I decide to go for a meeting. As it is, she was already behind with her study.A small knock interrupted my thoughts. “ Boss?” I looked at my head of security. “ did you find anything on her?” he nodded.“ I found her location. It wasn’t hard to find.” I nodded.“ I have alr
Mark's ProvoI stared at her, all I could see was her naked underneath my body. I shook my head as I got my head straight. “ You wanted to talk to me?” she posed the question. I watched her like an eagle. She had settled on the bed, her legs crossed. Her thighs were exposed and at that moment the desire to bed her vanished. She was a temptress. She has been teaching my child bad manners ‘ Sit properly “ I lashed out. She entangled her legs and I cursed as she flashed her inner things “ Ohh I am sorry about that" she flashed her big smile.“ I need you to pack your things and leave my house. Your money has already been deposited “ I breathed out. “ ohh," he said. Had I been neglecting my duties as a father to not notice she wasn’t here for m kids. She was here for me, for the mistress position. She had been neglecting my kid. I clicked my tongue. “ I want you out of my house within the next fifteen minutes. “ I didn’t wait for her to respond. I dashed out of the h
Mark's Provo My phone rang. I let it ring for some time before answering it. It had been ringing for hours I can wait for 60 seconds more. “ Hello, it's Lisa! Ivy Stroked_,” An hour later I was navigating through the body road to get to the hospital. I cursed. If only I had taken more care when it came to her. “ Move your piece of shit!” I shouted at the street vendor. “ People don’t know how to be cautious,” I commented. The tires of the car screeched on the gravel road as I sped past the hospital. I rushed out of the car after a few minutes and headed towards the reception. “ IVY, where is she? She was brought here a few hours ago_" I looked at the receptionist. I glanced at my hands, they were shaking, sweats dotted on my palms. I felt air depart from my lungs. “ Where is she!” I shouted at her. She looked at me then that hehe computer. “ Her full name please?” she asked, her honey voice laced with ignorance. “ To hell with courtesy, “ I said and marched to every ward. I
Good morning Ivy,” mom entered the room. She stopped in her tracks. She sniffed the room and looked at me.“ did you open the window?” I shook my head. “ that is why it smells funky in here_” she dashed towards the window and opened it.“ Ivy, darling_” she sighed and walked towards the bed.“ I have seen some changes in you that are alarming. “ she looked at the bed than at me.“ Can I sit?” she asked. I nodded my head.“ What is wrong with you these days, your eyes are always bloodshot and your mood is just changing. I might not be your biological mother but I was there for you, I raised you kike my dear, with my own hands! I know when you are not yourself” she said. I studied her profile. “ Nothing is the wrong mother, I am fine” she flinched and Scooted far from me.“ Even your voice! “ she whispered.“ you sound like a man” I rolled my eyes.“ I have to go,” she said as she dashed lit of the room. I felt normal. Nothing had changed apart from the sorrow I had.
