Nicky, you are the best bich!! In my whole fuckin life!!” I uttered with a huge smile, clinging onto her like an earthworm.
“Yes, Ora and you are the best lazy bich that I can never stop loving!!” Nicky slurps in the last drop of her 10th canned beer. The only one that we could afford at that moment, we are two broke people living together. Abandoned by our parents but not orphaned. Our lives have been a mess, she is an illegitimate daughter of the second wealthy family in Ireland. But her life wasn't filled with riches. She is the type that I will say, “She was born with a silver spoon but still eats with a plastic spoon”.
“Ora,” she muttered in a low voice, staring at me sternly.
“Ummm,” I moaned. I couldn't see clearly at this moment. My eyes were blurry because I had pulled off my medicated glasses. I borged loudly next to her mouth.
“Fuck!! That stinks, bitch arse!!!" Nicky blurted out, pushing my face away from hers.
I pulled her shoulder closer to mine, forcing her to face me.
"Did you seriously call me a stinking bitch? "I thought you said you loved me?" I asked, my voice filled with hurt.
“I love you but not your alcoholic stinking mouth!!” She pushed me away, crawling to the fridge to bring more canned beers.
The room was messy with our clothes scattered on the floor and my travelling box on the floor. I just landed from London, I rushed over to her place first. I couldn't face my adoptive parents right now. I escaped from their nagging, promising them I was coming to Ireland tomorrow.
“Ora, should I book a flight for you back to London?” She asked suddenly, crawling back to me.
“Why?”
“Bitch!! You still don’t know why your fucking parents called you back here.” Nicky shrugs, looking at me with pity. Even in her drunk state, she still loves me. It shows clearly that she cares a lot about me.
“It's my wild guess though!! What if they are calling you back to get married to an arranged partner? Or about to sell you to one big shot in Ireland.”
“And you will experience an exciting romance with your partner.”
Nicky said, laughing loudly. Her sexy dimple flashing at me. It tickled my heart how pretty she is. Nicky has been my very best friend from the orphanage till our Adulthood. She has a father but she grew up in the orphanage, he doesn't want her to show up in his house as his daughter. He slept with her mother hoping for a male child but it turns out to be a female so he abandoned them. While I was adopted by the Grey family to ward off evil spirits hanging on their biological daughter. Our lifes is a wild mess so we stick together to find solace.
“Nicky, if i was a guy I would have gotten married to you.” I blurted out sweetly, she smiled nervously avoiding my intent gaze.
“Umm, but I will reject you if you are a guy. You are not my type!!” Nicky snapped, she grabbed the beer and opened it. She passes it to me with a smile.
“Drink baby girl!! Don't worry if we get to 30 without getting married or meeting Mr right. We will have to live together and have kids. We will be super single hot moms.”
Nicky promised, hugging me tightly, I gently pulled her away. Her breath stinks from the alcohol. I felt very nauseated as I inhaled her alcohol filled breath.
Pushing her away. I jolted out to the restroom, opening the toilet seat. I throw up every fucking thing hanging on my throat.
The doorbell suddenly rang, I turned on the faucet to rinse my mouth.
“Ora, go check the fucking door!!” She screamed at me.
“The fried chicken I ordered must have arrived!!”
“This pig, she never stops eating!! Why don't you get the door by yourself!!” I murmured. I gasped as I gazed into the mirror taking in my disheveled reflection.
Makeup smeared and my hair tangled. My red lipstick painted around my lip like I made a horny kiss with a man.
“Aurora, you are a hot mess!!”
I sluggishly washed my face,but it is still not getting better. I can't see myself properly, my vision keeps getting blurry.
The floor opened into two, like it was divided by Moses in the Bible stories.
I crawled out of the bathroom because I was afraid that if I took another step, I would fall and break my teeth before I got sober.
I scampered over to the door and grasped the knob. I leaned heavily on it as I stood up.
I twisted the door knob, and peeped around. There was not a single soul in the corridor. I crawled out and took the fried chicken carefully placed at the door. I sat on the floor opening the fried chicken, grabbing one and hid it in my pocket. Since Nicky bought it she will request for the lion share, so I had to hide some of it.
We are crazy right? Yes!! That's our law!! Whoever buys it gets the lion share.
Suddenly I heard a loud scream, I turned sharply. The voice came from the stairs, I tried to ignore it but it came back the second time.
I stumbled out heading to the stairs, my legs wobbling as I grasped the stair railing to steady myself.
As I looked down, my gaze fell on two men.
“Who is there?” I screamed.
The men looked up at me, I shifted my gaze to the floor. A man was blindfolded, lying on the floor lifeless with blood oozing out of his head.
My mind struggled to process the scene, the men seemed unfazed by my Presence. I stood staring at them as our eyes met.
The men's voices were hushed, but their murmuring sent chills down my spine.
I tried to step back but my legs were glued to the ground, I couldn't move an inch. The drunk me couldn't process their faces properly.
The men's eyes locked into mine, we just stood there staring at each other, like it was a staring competition.
Aurora POVPain!!That was all my brain told me!It came in waves that tore through my body like fire, ripping the air from my lungs, crushing my spine, splitting me open from the inside. I screamed until my throat burned, until tears soaked my hair and the sheets beneath me.“Push, Aurora,” the doctor urged. “You’re doing well. Just breathe and push.”I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t think. The only thing on my mind was how I could strangle Rylan to death if I saw him right now.My hands clawed at the bed as another contraction slammed into me, stronger than the last. I cried out, my body shaking violently as I tried to push again. It felt endless like my body had been locked in this torment forever.“Mummy…” I sobbed.Aaliyah my mum was right beside me, gripping my hand with both of hers, her face pale with fear but her voice steady. “I’m here, my baby. Look at me. You are strong. You are not alone. You are doing well. You are such a strong woman. I am proud of you.”Another scream ri
9 months LATERThe Bali sun poured down like gold, warming Rosie’s skin as she lay on a white lounge near the shoreline. The ocean sounds were beautiful and sounded sweet in her ears. Palm trees swayed lazily above, and soft music drifted from the beach bar behind her.She looked effortless in her bikini, confidence clinging to her like perfume. For nine months now, this had been her sweet life, sun, luxury, indulgence. No worries, and no memories she couldn’t outrun.A man crouched beside her, smiling, a small bowl of grapes in his hand. He plucked a grape and leaned in, feeding it to her slowly.Rosie parted her lips, accepted it and then bit his finger lightly, teasing.“Ouch,” he laughed. “Careful, Queen Rosie, don't hurt your tooth. I will cry if you do.”She smirked, removing her sunglasses just enough to look at him.He studied her for a moment, curiosity creeping into his voice. “You know… when you left for Ireland, you were poor and broke. That you even made a fake health r
CHAPTER: KARMANicky’s car rolled to a stop in front of the familiar but now ominous mansion.Aaliyah stepped out first, her posture calm, eyes sharp with a fury that had been buried for twenty-three years. She surveyed the house slowly, committing every detail to memory.“So this is where they live?” she asked, her voice low.Nicky nodded. “Yes.”Aurora hesitated as she stepped down, her fingers curling into the fabric of her coat. “MUM… do we really have to come here?”Aaliyah turned to her daughter, cupping her face gently for just a second before her hand dropped.“Everyone who hurt you,” she said coldly, “everyone who bullied you, humiliated you. Treat you like dirt! They will pay!”Her eyes hardened.“How dare an illegitimate son’s wife treat my daughter like a thief,” Aaliyah continued. “They will all kneel and beg you for forgiveness.”At her signal, the guards moved.The gate was forced open. The front door didn’t stand a chance either.It crashed inward with a deafening soun
Asher held her hands. His face was pale and drained of color. “Um...um...Mum...there is an issue.”“What Issue?” Red screamed, her eyeballs almost falling out.“It's um..um..” He stuttered.“What are you doing stuttering like a kid? Where is my fucking money?!!” She barked, her tone loud.Blarke and Rylan stared at each other confused. What money is she talking about?“Um..um..it's the..50 million euro cash.” Asher said, scratching his head.“Yes..The 50 million euro cash. Where is it?”.Red asked again, grabbing his arm.He said calmly, “So…the guards said..Rosie..that you're Rosie. She said she will bring the money from the company to us. So the Guards let her take the money to bring to us. But right now I can't seem to reach her.” Asher said, his voice breaking down.“Which Rosie? Can't you go find her?” She asked, her tone low.“Your Rosie..Rhoda so daughter..The one you sent to seduce Rylan. That Rosie.” He explained nicely.She slapped him. “Do you think I don't know the Rosie y
A WEEK LATER. RED CALLED A SHAREHOLDER MEETINGA week later, the Blackwood boardroom was filled to capacity.Every seat was occupied. Shareholders, directors, silent observers each one carried a different expression, but all shared the same curiosity. Power was about to change hands, and everyone could feel it. Everyone was ready to sell their shares since the Blackwood family was falling.Red Blackwood stood at the head of the long mahogany table, dressed in a sharp red gown, her posture confident, her chin lifted like a queen already crowned.She placed both palms on the table and scanned the room slowly.“Let’s not waste time,” she said coolly. “Anyone willing to sell their shares to me…raise your hand.”There was a brief hesitation. Then Lucian said. “Do it now or you will regret it later. This is your only chance to be free.”One by one, hands began to rise. A few, then more.Red smiled faintly, satisfaction glinting in her eyes.“You see,” she continued, her voice smooth and del
RYLAN POVThe moment Raine stepped into the courtyard, the air shifted.I felt it before I saw it..the sharp intake of breath, the way her body froze like she had walked into a ghost.Her eyes landed on Blarke.And then she shattered.“Blarke!” she cried, rushing toward him as if the last twenty-three years had never existed. Tears streamed down her face as she clutched his arms. “You finally came back to me. I knew it. I knew you would come back. Now you see it, don’t you? I am better for you. Not that Aaliyah!! I am the one who belongs to you.”She laughed through her tears, hysteria lacing every word.“I’m so happy you came back for me.”My stomach turned, How shameless she was. How self depreciating she was to herself. And she is at the stage of being unstable.“I still love you, Blarke,” Raine continued desperately. “You see Dylan? I lied about him. I only said those things to make you jealous. He is my brother’s son, not mine. I never cheated on you. Never. My assistant and I..w
