Kelan's POV Reminiscing on how I got locked in this body without me having any improvement, I had a lot to find out but being here got me tied up. I have heard about people in coma when I was much alive and now I wonder, was this how they suffered every day? How they could hear what was going on outside but couldn't react. I wish a supreme one could just help me out of my situation. I tried moving my hand but it wouldn't. Then I started to think of how the whole accident started. **Flash back** "Kel, are you still angry with me?" Jason, who was seated on the sofa, looked at me with sad eyes. It's been over a year since Jason had been demoted at the company. I didn't intentionally demote him but then he was too rash in taking actions. He lost a major project to the Lanez group. That project, I had fought tooth and neck over it so I was outrightly pissed when Jason messed it up. Jason is my brother and I knew it wasn't intentional of him to do it and he just wanted to prove himsel
Jason's POVI never knew that Aliyah could be this stubborn after all the threats. Missing her damn body was an understatement and now I didn't know if allowing her to marry my brother was a mistake. Shouldn't I have held her captive and just enjoyed her body the way I wanted? Now I was starving from not having her body. I had called her to my room for her to satisfy me but she fought me all night. She wouldn't stop cussing at me and it would have been baloney if I had said she's weak. The Aliyah I know was fragile but the one here is like a lioness. She wouldn't let me touch her. I gritted my teeth at her and then laid down to sleep. We turned our backs to each other. I knew it was stupid of me to force her to sleep on the same bed with me but I just wanted her to be close. I didn't know how long I'd slept. I opened my eyes and saw that we were already facing each other. I looked at how her stubborn beautiful face was calm. People would have argued if I told them that this beautif
Jason’s POV Luckily, Carey had successfully carried out the first rule to winning my mom’s heart. Humility. That was my mother's weak point. She loved people to bow to her. That's what Aliyah didn’t know or maybe she just didn't want to accept it. She looked at Carey with interest. "And you are?" "Isn't it obvious? She's definitely one of Jason's whore!" Valencia said with an indifferent look. My mother turned to her. "Your manners girl," she snapped. Valencia frowned and then glared at Carey. I knew she was only throwing a tantrum because of money. "Tell him to give me the money," she said with a pout. " Go use my card, he'll do that later, " she shooed her away. Valencia gave Carey a stern look before she walked away. I was occasionally staring at the steps for Aliyah to approach but I didn't see her. I was wondering if she was trying to disobey me again. I explained to my mother who Carey was. Not for once have I ever brought a woman home and I could see that my mother was quit
Aliyah's POV This space has left me completely idle and fixated to diverse thoughts as I watched Kelan day after day. Looking at him sleeping, he looked like a healthy man. My instincts were telling me that something wasn't right. It was telling me that Kelan should have woken up by now. I watched the machine that monitored his heart and it was all normal. It didn’t feel all normal again, and I began to seek answers to what actually happened in the first place. I patiently waited for a time when the Queens of the house were not away and took to questioning some of the maids. They accorded me respect as revered for the wife of the Donald’s first son, and a particular maid, named Priscilla, the oldest seemed like the best person to ask my questions. “Every one loved him.” She started with a tone that obviously sold her out, showing endearment. "You really care for him, I see" I smiled, in between my response. It would sound suspicious if I go ahead with direct questions. I'm a s
Aliyah’s POV "How dare you insult your soon to be boss?" She bawled. "You are wrong. I am married to Kelan and the last time I checked, Kelan is Jason's elder brother. I should be the boss to her, not the other way round! " I shouted back at her. I wasn't going to back down. If they decide to frustrate me, I would also do the same to them, especially now I had a big hunch of what to do. "You are not part of this family!" She said between gritted teeth I love the way she was looking as if she's going to explode at any moment. That's what she got for hitting me. I looked at Carey who also had an angry look. "You will be bitter forever, bitch," I said before I walked away. “What audacity!” I muttered to myself. The atmosphere in the living room had been heavy with tension, thick with unspoken animosity. I had walked in, expecting whatever came from the call with my mother-in-law, Carey, and Jason, and it turned just like I expected. They seemed to be reveling in the opportunity to
Aliyah POVThe first shock I got was the man knowing my name. I was frightened a bit because this strange man knew my name. I shouldn't be afraid of having such encounters if my father was alive but since the death of my father, we have been ignored by people. Even all my father's friends that were like they would never leave, they are nowhere to be found. So hearing someone call my name was really strange. "Who are you and how do you know me?" I asked him, shifting away from my seat. I looked around to see if anyone was looking at us but no one cared. Jason can do anything just to make me succumb to his request. "I will tell you when we are out of here," the man said.I didn't know what made him sure I was going to follow him. I was in a very dangerous state now and I wouldn't let anyone lure me into what I wouldn't do. I looked at him and shook my head."No, I'm going nowhere," I said to him."Please Aliyah. This is really important," he begged me.Although he wasn't looking dan
Aliyah's POVSince I had no one to reply to the question in my mind, I moved to Kelan and tapped him. I want to see if he moved. I was so anxious that I tapped him for several minutes but yet he was still the same. After a while all my hopes shattered.Then I remembered what Macy told me about the drugs being administered to Kelan. If he was moving then what Macy said was true. I went to where they were arranged and looked at them carefully, again. Looking at them, I felt like throwing them out but that would make whoever was doing this know that I already found out the secret.I was still standing there when the door to the room opened to meet Carey’s face. A triumphant look was dancing round her chubby face. I stood there looking at her, expecting whatever rubbish she had to spill from her mouth."C'mon girlfriend, don't wear a frown. At least you have a good room to sleep in," she said and her smile grew wider."What do you want? " I asked casually.After she had betrayed me, every
Aliyah’s POVNow, I couldn't escape this place because there was no way I was going to beg those two for anything. "What a poor girl," Carey said."Don't pity her, she's nothing but an arrogant gold digger. She's all here for money and yet she's acting so bossy," Jason's mother said with disgust.Carey looked at Jason's mother with a sad look." I know she's rude though, but I can’t help pity her. Maybe I should talk to him.”I knew Carey made that statement just to look good in front of Jason's mother and it worked. Jason's mother looked at her and patted her head gently."You are too innocent. People like her shouldn't be pitied, though. Let her beg and we might at least be able to give her food," she said.I snorted at her words and rolled my eyes. Even if I starve to death, I won't apologize to any of them. Do they think I care about the food? All I wanted was to get out of this place. When they were tired of mocking me, they left. I could hear their footsteps loudly outside and s
