A silent giggle escaped her lips as he planted a kiss on her forehead. She curled her body into his chest with his arms around her back, and the duvet over their unclad bodies. “So, what will we be doing today? Making babies?” He asked as he removed the strand of hair from her forehead. She frowned as she glared at his face and he laughed as he saw the look on her face. “We will be visiting father today,” she informed. “Oh, I almost forgot about the old man,” he said with a smile. “Hmm, he hasn’t called yet, or maybe he is waiting for us to come over,” she said. II think so. Come on, I'm so famished right now,” he said as he sat up right. “Really? But you’ve been eating all through the night,” she said with laughter and he chuckled. “No..that kind of food is draining. I lost all my blood on top of that food. I need a sumptuous meal. Egusi and pounded yam,” he said as he stood up from the bed. She smiled and sat up right with the duvet across her chest. “See you, always deman
Two days later, they embarked on a journey to visit some of the orphanage homes around the city. A lot of clothes, food and large sums of money was contributed to the orphanage homes by Mateo and his family. The news made the rounds on the internet and they became the talk of the town, especially Alex and her husband, Adrian whom many termed as the powerful couple. It was 6:15pm when they got home that evening. The journey had been quite stressful and they both strolled into the house tiredly along with the maids who had embarked with them on the journey. “Wow, everyone did great today.Thanks a lot, my sugar ladies,” she said as she hugged the maids who were smiling in front of her. “What about me?” Adrian asked behind her and they all laughed. “You were busy doing business, you thought I didn’t overhear your phone calls?” She asked and they laughed again. He stood up and walked towards her. He placed his arms around her waist with his head leaning on her shoulder. “Now come,
He was beginning to enjoy the moment of his life as they both danced vigorously on the dance floor. She was such a good dancer and he awed as she made every move, twisting her waists seductively in front of him. He knew she was high on alcohol already and he couldn’t wait to get home so he could get into action with her tonight. She wrapped her hands around his neck as she panted heavily with strands of her hair lying all over her face. “I never knew you were a club boy,” she shouted as the loud music sounded all over the place. “I wasn’t, though, I’ve always wanted to become one. And I’ve found someone ready to become one with me,” he said and they both laughed. “Come on,” she urged as she turned with her back facing him and she rocked him hard while he laughed. “Silly woman,” he said as he spanked her bum. Just then, he felt his phone vibrating in his pocket. He brought it out and looked at the caller ID. He frowned and returned the phone back in his pocket. As they danced, the
They journeyed home silently without saying a word to each other as the car sped along the road. As soon as the car came to a halt, she stepped out immediately and hurried into the house, leaving him behind. He stood before the car watching as she ran into the house and he heaved a sigh and walked away. She shut the door behind her as she ran into the room. She sat on the floor with her back leaning on the door and her palms placed on her face. She was no longer feeling dizzy and everything that happened at the club began to play in her head. She could recall Adrian’s monster-like face when he smashed the bottle against the boy’s head and her heart cringed. She didn’t know what he had seen or if he had mistaken her for cheating on him. What if he comes for her and deals with her tonight? What if his old self resurfaced? She asked as she began to sob. Maybe it wasn’t a good idea to have stayed back with him, she thought. She could have left when Mateo gave her the chance to. She shou
She dashed into the bathroom and the sound of her vomiting could be heard as she placed her head over the wash basin. This was the third time she was vomiting since dawn and she could feel a burning pain in her chest. She rinsed her mouth with water and sprinkled some water on her face. She raised her head and looked at her reflection in the mirror. What’s going on? She asked as she removed the strand of hair from her face. As she stepped out of the bathroom, she moved into the bed and dragged the duvet over her body. She was feeling so cold and dizzy at the same time. It’s been two weeks since Adrian left for a business trip and they’ve only communicated on the phone. Right now, she needed to let him know she was sick. As she reached for her phone on the other side of the bed, she saw the door opening and Vivian stepped into the room with Sara. “Madam Alex, What’s wrong with you? We haven’t seen you since it dawned and it’s almost 11am already,” Sara complained as she walked to
She sat on the bed with her face beaming with a smile as he walked towards the bed, holding a tray of breakfast. “Why are you smiling like you saw something amusing?” He asked as he placed the tray on the bed. She smiled and licked her lips as her eyes scanned through his bare chest to his biceps. “Oh, you want this?” He asked as he pointed at his body and she laughed and shook her head immediately. “Honey, come and have your breakfast. Don’t keep my baby boy hungry,” he said as he sat on the bed and shifted the tray closer to her. She pulled a long face as she stared at his face. “How do you know it’s a boy?” She asked. “Of course he is Adrian's heir,” he said confidently as he fondled her cheek which was growing chubby. “Very soon, you will turn into a chicken. Look at those robust cheeks,” he mocked and she pushed him away while he laughed uncontrollably. He began to feed her slowly while they laughed over a few things. These past days, he had been treating her with nothi
She stopped abruptly as she stood face to face with him and he made a surprised face as he saw her staring at him anxiously. Her heart began to pound as she thought of Amos walking in on them. What if Adrian had spotted them together earlier? She reasoned and she could feel the perspiration gathering on her brows. “Are you okay?” He asked as he noticed her uneasiness. “Yes, Honey, are you done?” She asked as she took his hand immediately. “Yes, what about you?” He asked. “I’m..I’m..done. Let’s leave,” she said as she pulled his hand and they both walked away immediately. * She heaved a sigh as she slumped on the couch tiredly. They were back from shopping and she was feeling so tired already. They had also stopped by Mateo’s place to break the news to him and she smiled as she recalled how happy he had felt about the pregnancy. She sighed and took off her wig which was beginning to discomfort her. She could hear Adrian’s voice in the bathroom and he seemed to be saying a few w
She walked into the room tiredly and dropped her bag on the bed. “How did it go?” He asked as he walked into the room. She smiled as she sat on the bed and pulled off her long black wig. “It went so well, honey. You know, Madison will be arriving in the country this week and I met with her supposed suitor today.” she said with a smile. “Oh,” he said as he helped her remove her shoes. “Yes, and their marriage is really going to be terrific!” She exclaimed and he laughed. “Why?” He asked with his head bent. “They are enemies right from college days and their families want them to get married,’ she related. “And they’re opposing, I guess,” he said with a smile. ‘Yes, I haven't heard from Madison, though. I want to surprise her on that day of her coming so I won’t contact her just yet,” she replied. “So, what’s the guy saying about the marriage plans?” He asked as he massaged her feet gently. “He doesn’t want to marry her,” she replied. “Just like us,” he said as he raised his
