Love And Tales Chapter 42
Elena's POVI wake up squinting to get my pupils accustomed to the light rays.“Another day to smile at the camera,” I whispered as I stood up, slipping my leg into my sneakers.Just as I was about to make a move, I felt a pain course through the vein that surrounded my groin.“Shit!” I cursed under my breath, just as I looked at my reflection which was on the mirror, my jaw dropped and my eyes widened at the sight I beheld; I was stark Naked.I grabbed the blanket, wrapping it around my waist.Different questions swirled in my head, searching for possible answers but found none.How did I get here? The last thing I remembered, I was at a club with Raymond, what happened next? I could remember taking the hot liquid that was served at the club.I held my head as it pounded. My body ached and was so weak I had to grab a seat before I passed out. Another thought came crawling into my busy mind; How did I end up naked? “Raymond!” I muttered, anger etched on the

Raymond's POV “The fuck! ” I cursed under my breath, my firm grip on the steering wheel wondering why there should be traffic at this time. The blaring of horns could be heard rhythmically, coming from different cars.I rolled my eyes, biting my lips in frustration as I rested my head on the steering wheel.“Why on earth does this have to happen now?” I asked myself.Finally, the traffic cleared and I sped down the road, the street lights passing by in a blur.I pulled up at the parking slot and rushed down, dashing into the cop's department.“You are in a hurry, Raymond. What's the problem?” One of the detectives asked, observing the pace I walked.A smile tugged beside my lips, masking my uneasiness as I dashed into my family detective's office, my hand gripping the doorknob. “You sent for me?” I said, trying to catch my breath.“Mr Raymond?” she called, her brows knitted in confusion. “, You are in such a haste,” she said, a mocking smile on her lips.“Strai

Elena's POV“What’s wrong with him?” I muttered, descending the stairs in search of a cup of water.He was acting so weird, my thoughts wandered as I gulped down the water which sent a cold sensation down my spine.Without further hesitation, I climbed the stairs and traced my steps back to my bedroom, trying to relax my raging mind.Slowly, I got myself tangled in the warm embrace of sleep, my eyelids so heavy I couldn't fight back, making me drift into the world of unconsciousness.Just then, the doors creaked open revealing Raymond's face as he obstructed the light rays.My eyes fluttered open as I stared at him. He stood at the corner for a brief moment, his mind lost in the labyrinth of different thoughts; so I guessed.He shrugged his shoulders as he walked in, his fingers running across the walls and the lights flickered on.I closed my eyes immediately, feigning the position of a sleeping damsel.“Damn it,” he cursed under his breath, clearly seethed in

Elena's POV“Just a little more practice and you'll be walking for the big brands,” The director teased.A smile curled up my lips, my gaze fixated on him,“You think? ” I asked, raising my brow.“Yeah!” he replied. “You’re almost there.”“You are the brains behind all these, I'm so lucky to be tutored by you,” I replied.Exhausted already, I dragged my feet to an available seat, wiping the sweat that dripped down my temple with a towel.“Modeling is so stressful, I must admit. ” I muttered, pressing my ankle which ached badly. I slipped my leg out of the heels and stared at its unusual red color. “You are hurt?” Selina; one of the models asked, with a voice laced with worry.“Yeah, I think,” I replied, rolling my eyes as the pain coursed through my leg.“You don't have to sit down to let the pain go away,” she said, pointing at my ankle. “Let’s go get some ice cream. Maybe, it might relieve the pain. ”I raised my head and stared at her in shock. Why was sh

Raymond's POVDespite masking my uneasiness with a smile, I was still troubled.The doctor's report threw me off balance. How could I be the father of the baby? Was there a mistake in the report?“Fuckimg hospital,” I hissed, cursing under my breath.“Daddy, I love Timon,” Hope yelled, his fingers pointing at the television a wild smile running across his lips.I felt a twinge of anger in me. For fuck sake, why can't he stop calling me daddy for now, till I figure out how I was his father.“Daddy!” his voice pierced the air again as he gripped my shirt, shaking me and trying to jolt me out of my thoughts. I forced a smirk on my lips,“He sure looks adorable,” I replied, trying to sound casual“Do you like him, Daddy?” he asked, his eyes fixed on mine.I exhaled, trying to keep my temper in check.“Can you quit bothering me?” I coughed out, unable to contain my anger, my voice harsher than I had intended.He looked at me, his face frowning as if he was to cry.“Da

Raymond's POV“What the fuck are you doing here?” I barked, a twinge of anger in my voice.She hissed loudly, her sound, a noise to my ear.“That shouldn't be the reply to the question, what are you doing in my room?” I asked again, rising to my feet.She stared at me for a while, as if my words fell on a deaf ear, an awkward silence engulfing the air.“That shouldn't be the question, Raymond,” She scoffed.“I don't know what you think about this, but I bet it isn't funny. Eavesdropping on people's conversations is a dumb thing to do,” I barked, my eyes blazing in fury.“Look,“ she began, “shying away from the topic will do you no good. You're Hope's father, interesting,” she grinned wildly.“And you shouldn't be bothered about that, right?” I asked, still looking her in the eyes.Just then the door creaked open, revealing Elena. Her countenance changed the moment she noticed Alana in my room.“What’s the problem, Alana?” Elena asked the smile on her lips vani

Raymond's POV“What do you want, Violet? ” I asked, my eyes piercing into hers.A weird smile tugged beside her lips, her eyes a reflection of her dark cold soul.“You don't have a problem speaking with an old friend, do you?” She asked, her words as cold as ice.“I won't repeat myself, what the fuck do you want? Why did you call me out here?” I asked, my voice laced with anger.She exhaled, her eyes fixed on the floor for a while before it rested on my shoulders.“You're confused, Raymond,” she complimented. “I never called you here. I was having an ice cream at the corner,” her middle finger pointed at an empty table.“You didn't?” I asked, confusion etched in my expression.“Nope. I dragged my feet here to say hello to you,” a wild grin on her chin.“Cut the crap, violet. What the fuck do you want from me?” I asked, a grim look on my face. “That isn't a way to talk to an old friend,” she snapped, cursing under her breath.“I’ll prefer speaking to you behind bars,”
Love And Tales Chapter 49 ( Our little secret )
Raymond's POV The rays of the sun rose to my eyeballs and my eyes fluttered open. I adjusted my position and squinted, trying to get my pupils accustomed to the light rays that peeped from the curtains.“Saturday morning,” I said, sitting upright on my bed.My eyes scanned the room for any sign of Elena but she wasn't there.I slid my legs into my sneakers and traced my steps to the bathroom, my legs as heavy as lead. Perhaps I was exhausted from late-night thoughts. The warm water from the shower head drenched my head, washing out exhaustion which seemed to weigh me down.“Gonna be a long day,” I whispered, scrubbing my hair.After I was done, I slid a towel on my waist, watching it wrap lime a second skin.I walked to the wardrobe, in search of any clothes which would lighten my mood.Suddenly, my gaze caught a familiar dress, a dress that triggered a memory.“I love you, Raymond,” I could hear her whisper to me.“I love you too,” I whispered back as I pulle
