Jemima's POV
After Josh cut the cake, he couldn't hide his excitement when he realised that I had baked his favourite. Red velvet ice-cream cake.Three layers of red velvet cake and two layers of homemade cheesecake ice cream sandwiched between the layers like he loves it."Thank you..." He mouthed me and I just winked.
After the cake cutting was over.The MC appeared again on stage and announced the special guest of the night who was to render a love song.To everyone surprise, it was the Nicki Minaj a famous RnB singer was called on stage.As she walked gracefully on the stage, the room was filled with screams.She was indeed love.She began singing and the room was silent.Everyone seemed to be under her enchantment.
I never understand how her voice shows off several pitches in one piece.It's amazing.She was on top on my favourite list until she called my Drake on stag
Chapter Thirty twoJemima's POVWaking up and seeing the love of your life lying peaceful next you is priceless.I couldn't help but stroke his cheek.Words are not enough to describe how handsome and attractive this man is.I am sure when been created, God poured some sprinkles and everything pretty in his mud before molding him.He was perfectly carved for the human beings to admire.I bent forward so that I could kiss him when he opened his eyes."Hey doll face?"He pulled me against his chest and wrapped his arms around me."Why are you up so early?" He yawned."I wanted to admire you...""That's sweet of you..." He pressed his lips softly on my forehead that my face got heated"That's sweet of you..." He pressed his lips softly on my forehead that my face got heated.I will never get used to this.I have fallen for you harder than a slip on
Chapter Thirty threeDrake's POVThis earth hold many beauties, treasures beyond my imagination but nothing compares to her.I thought I loved Cardi but I guess I felt indebted for all she has done for me.I can swear on my life that what I feel for Jemima seems like that thing called Love.Daniel said when in love you can't stop thinking about her.She even takes over your dreams and every second you just want to be close to her.I never thought I would be a victim of love.Does that mean I will start sobbing and acting all broken and vulnerable every time Jemima and I are not cool?Arrrrggh!!!Being in love sucks."You are all dismissed.Practice is over..." Coach Weiner shouted and we all screamed excitedly.Since we are so close to the new season, our coaches have been a little bit hard on us.But I don't blame them, I blame the pressure that comes from the Basketball federation."I can't feel my legs.Coach Josh has been more
Chapter Thirty fourJemima's enjoyingIt was enjoying the comfort of my soft pillow when I heard vigorous violent knocks.At first I thought it was a dream until I lazily opened my eyes.The knocks were continuous.F*ck!"Vee?" I called her softly only for her to pull the duvet over her head."Vee?" I shook her vigorously,"I think there is someone at the door...""What?" She sat up and rubbed her eyes vigorously."Can't you hear the knocks?""What time is it?" She yawned and looked at her phone."It's only 1am.I hope that person knocking like this is their house has a very important reason of waking us up" She rolled her eyes."Grab the bat and let's see who is there..." I suggested."What if it's a thief?""We beat him to death.""Grab the bat and let's
Chapter Thirty fiveJemima's POV"What do we do Jayjay, we are running out of options?" I asked in a concerned tone"Why are you worried? Tonight we will get to see that lousy greedy MP face to face and whether he likes it or not he has to listen to us.""What about Nick? He is dead, are we going just to sit and mourn? We need to go back to the streets...""Look at you all grown up.I can't lose anyone else little lioness.Plus I promised Josh that I won't put your life in danger ever again. You got shot, what if you died?""Nick died because of me and even without your help I am gonna avenge his death..." I cussed out."I don't care Jayjay" I could feel my insides churning with rage.I can barely sleep at night as the events of that day keep playing in my head in slow motion. I had Nick's blood on my hands and that fact was slowly killin
Chapter Thirty sixJemima's POVI needed a break from the paperwork piling higher and higher and so s*xily smiled ready to feed my Instagram family with my beauty.Since my interview last night, I have gained one hundred thousand followers. In this rate, I might consider being a social media influencer.I was stuck on either posting my selfie on my instastory or going live when my phone began blaring with music.Vee what a bad timing."What?" I answered in a bored tone."Good morning to you too rude girl. Since you started your internship, you are losing your manners .Or is it that you have a hundred and thirty followers now.." "No. I called to give you some bad news, Cardi is back in the country. I just wanted to give you a thumbs up so that you don't get caught off guard..." She stated and from the tone in her voice I was sure I hurt her feelings.If she only knew how much she means to me.
Chapter Thirty sevenJemima's POVAs the sun fell from the curtains onto my face, I slowly opened my eyes and looked at my side. There he was, the centre of my universe sleeping peacefully.I slowly dropped his arm from my waist and stood from the bed when he pulled me right back in.He trapped me in his arms that I couldn't move. He bit my earlobe, his hand caressing my inner thighs sending wild tremors all over my body."Where do you think you are going?""I..h..a..v..e..a.m..e..e.t.i.n.g..""But I want you...""DRAKE I will get late and my boss will kill me..."He flipped me over in a millisecond and pulled his boxers to his knees."I am sorry about Cardi and about everything I have put you through."

Chapter Thirty eightJemima's POVI took a huge gulp of whisky and closed my eyes enjoying the burning sensation down my throat.I curled my hands into fists and took a deep breath.Drake broke up with her.I tried to say to myself but the heaviness in my chest wouldn't go away.Drake wouldn't lie to me. I yelled at my subconscious mind that she hid behind her favourite black leather sofa.He loves me.I whispered to my inner goddess who nodded in agreement. He chose me.I continued.He would never hurt me . He chose me.I continued.Then what's wrong?...My inner goddess asked.I am scared he would go back to her. I am scared after seeing how beautiful she looks, he would have second thoughts.I was so lost in my thoughts that I hadn't realised I was sending tears down my face."Jemima?" Daniel dragged me from my disturbing thoughts.I slowly opened my eyes and looked at his sympathetic eyes."Come here," H
Chapter thirty nineJemima's POVI underestimated this man.Does he expect me to jump up and down in joy because he wants me to be his girlfriend.What difference will it make? He will still be putting on those silly glasses and the cap.I turned around to have a good look at him clapping my hands when I found him down on one knee."Wow!!!! Is this a new stunt?""What stunt? I am f*cking proposing...""What difference will it make? You will still put on that cap and those silly glasses. Why are you trying so hard for nothing?"

A guy rubbing it in on your face of how much he adores his girlfriend.A confused guy who doesn't even know if he wants Jemima or Cardi
