She thinks she can use the media to threaten me to marry her, she has really overestimated herself.My second plan is to find the little boy whose mother I used to ruin Emma's wedding with Jason.My phone rang on my way to work and it was that bitch Veronica who was calling me.“Hello, little slut”. I said with a mischievous grin.“We went back to being enemies so soon”.It seems the person that I hired promised her something. That's interesting to hear.“I am quite busy right now, what do you want?”. I asked, sounding urgent.“It's nothing, I didn't see you when I woke up this morning, so I wanted to know where you are”. She replied like a good wife.“When did you start caring about my whereabouts? I hope what happened last night didn't make you misunderstand? We are still enemies”.“It's fine, you don't need to tell me, I know that we are not compatibl
CHERRY'S POVI am now like Daniel's nanny, I took sick leave from work and had to take care of him at his house.Though I lied to my mom that there is an event happening in the office and I won't be back for some days.I have been in Daniel's house for five days now, he has fully recovered and the wound is not that fresh anymore.Today, I plan to resume at the office. Daniel insisted that he would also resume today with me.I packed enough food to eat. When we got close to the office, I insisted that Daniel drop me because I don't want anyone to know that I've been with him for the past five days.“Cherry welcome back to work. Are you okay now?”. Zara ran to me as she spotted me at the gate, she welcomed me with flowers, I was really moved by her actions.“I am perfectly fine now, how are you doing?”. I asked her after hugging her.“Very well thank you, let's go in my lady”. She said in a playful manner.We settled in the changing room with other girls.“Look, she's back to break more
EMMA'S POVAn unknown number called me at the office. When I picked up the call, I was surprised to hear Daniel's mother voice. She finally broke the code. Before I left Daniel, she made it clear to me that if we happen to meet in the future that I should act like a total stranger towards her.I did just that at the hospital, the day she picked on Cherry. I wonder what could be so important now that she needs to call me. “Hello, who is this please?” I asked her, not that I didn't recognize her voice but because I wanted to act oblivion towards her.“We need to talk”. She replied with no emotion.“Is that how you talk to strangers madam? You didn't even introduce yourself before opening your mouth to vomit nonsense”. I retorted back with the same tone.“You are the one that has refused to let my son breathe and live a peaceful life”. She yelled out.“Accusing me now?” I asked“Accusing you? I didn't call you to barter words with you. This is just a warning, next time, I will take act
EMMA'S POVMy eyes gradually opened and the room was dark, I couldn't see anything. But what happened to me? I calmed down to rethink about what happened. And I remembered that I was with Jason and he…..I couldn't even think about it.How would Jason do that to me? No, there must be a misunderstanding somewhere.I need to find out what's going on. I stood up and I almost stumbled with the heavy dress that I was wearing. Just then, I began to inspect the long thick gown that I was wearing. This seems to be a wedding gown.At that moment, the room's light was turned on and everywhere was very bright.I covered my eyes because my eyes weren't able to contain the bright light at first, but gradually I opened it.What I saw in the room shocked me. Jason was at the center of the room, smiling while Judith, Kelvin, in fact the team I selected for the event were also present in the room wearing smiles on their faces.“What's going on Jason?”. I asked curiously. “First of all my love, I wan
JASON'S POVWhen I finally settled her in the limo, I couldn't hold my hunger for her anymore.Emma, who is now my wife, is like a drug to me, I can't resist her. She tastes so good and now that she is my wife, I can have sex with her with no restrain. I kissed from her lips till the nape of her neck. I unzipped her wedding gown because it was a hindrance to me.“Hubby, please can you take it easy with me”. She said with a whisper.“Alright wifey”. I replied then resumed what I was doing but this time I was as gentle as I can even though I just want to devour her.I exposed her cleavage and her glorious pears shot out. They were so erect and attractive.I grabbed one of it in my mouth and suckled on it. She moaned out and then covered her mouth with her right hand.I chuckled at her behaviour. “Don't worry wifey, the driver will not hear you no matter how loud you scream. I want you to moan as loud as you can”. She smiled, her cheeks were already red.“Hubby, if we do it here, how
EMMA'S POVLast night was really…. I don't even know the words to use and describe it.I was thrilled by the pleasure I received yesterday. Although I woke up with a serious body ache and reminiscing about the pleasure, the ache goes off.He served me breakfast on the bed and took me to the bathroom and gave me a hot bath that made the ache less painful. He even called the doctor to come and check up on me. He treats me like a neonate whenever I am with him.The doctor said I am stressed out, and I know that it's because of the exercise we did last night.I came outside to have a view of the beach. And the sight is so lovely. The cool breeze is so soothing that it relaxed my nerves when I felt the breeze.Something got my attention, it was the beautiful coconut I saw and I was craving for it.“Do you want that coconut?”. I was startled by Jason's voice. I turned to look at him.“Why would you sneak up on me like that? Do you want to give me a heart attack?”. I asked with my lips p
EMMA'S POVAngel? What could be her mission this time?“Sis, you seemed not to be happy to see me”. She said with a smirk on her face.“What do you want, Angel?”. I asked with my eyebrow raised.“Come on, can't I say hi to you anymore? We are best of friends, remember?”. The smirk was still evident on her face. “I don't have time to chat with you, since you don't have anything meaningful to say, then I will ignore you”. I said with an irritated voice and pressed the window button to wound the car window up.“If I were you I wouldn't do that”. She looked at me with malicious intent.“Why?, you are irritating me with your presence. I don't have that energy to waste with you”.“Alright, let me go straight to the point then. The Jason that you are with right now is not your beloved Jason, he's an imposter created by me”.“What nonsense are you spatting, Angel?”.“When I ran away I promised to come back stronger and make your life a living hell. And finally I have achieved my goal. Let me
VERONICA'S POVI have been really busy with the wedding preparation lately, and finally today I am getting married to Simeon for real.The election and the outreach has been running smoothly as well. And Simeon, after the sex that night, has drastically changed.He treats me well, he brings the better version of me. Even when I was going for the outreach to feed the poor, I didn't think of doing it because I want them to vote for me but because I truly want to help them.“Are you ready honey?”. He came from behind and kissed my cheeks.“Yeah, I am ready”. I replied. Though I am sad that no one close to me is witnessing our wedding, I wanted to call Emma but I don't know how she would feel about the news, so it's just me and my husband to be, so I decided to leave the media out of it.“Simeon, I have one question for you”. I said to him as I stood up from the mirror to observe him.“Go ahead”. He replied. “Do you really love me? And if you do, why all of a sudden?”. I made sure to obs
EMMA'S POVAs soon as I heard that Angel had been apprehended, I went back home with Jason.I had to plead for Aunty Grace to follow me as well at least to see Mum Susan.Jason told me how he had to devise the necessary means to take Angel down. He disguised himself as Mr Graham three months ago when he found out the kind of shady business that Angel does.Though the poison that was given to Angel didn't kill Veronica but definitely she is going to receive a punishment equivalent to her sins.I told Jason to take me straight to Mum Susan’s house.

After that night, everything changed. I could feel it the moment I walked into the FBI headquarters. The looks on their faces, the whispers, the way they avoided meeting my eyes—all signs that they had lost faith in me. And I couldn’t blame them. I had one job: to deliver Damon, and I failed.That night, the building was surrounded. I had planned everything perfectly. Agents were stationed at every exit, waiting for my command. We were so close. I could practically taste victory. But, Damon found out who I am. And till now am still wondering how he did.I thought about the way he looked at me last night, the pain in his eyes. I had never seen him like that before. For a moment, I saw the man behind the empire, the man behind all the crimes. And I froze. That was all it took. In that split second, he escaped, and I was left standing there, surrounded by disappointed faces.Now, I was sitting in the cold, gray interrogation room. My heart was pounding as Agent Faith, the lead investiga
I’ve spent the last two years living a lie. Two years of pretending to be someone I’m not, of working my way up the ranks of the most feared mafia organization in the city. Two years of getting closer to the man who sits on the throne of crime and cruelty. They call him Damon Black— the devil of Hell's Kitchen. He doesn’t trust anyone, especially not women. That’s why I had to do it. Why I had to cut my hair, hide my identity, and become ‘Liam,’ his loyal right-hand man.It took time, patience, and bloodshed. I had to prove myself over and over again. But finally, I made it to his side, becoming the one person he relies on. Every day, I stand by him, acting like I’m loyal to him while I secretly gather evidence, waiting for the perfect moment to bring him down. The FBI is counting on me. My mission is to make sure this cold-blooded criminal pays for all the lives he’s ruined.But sometimes... Sometimes, when he looks at me with those piercing green eyes, I forget who I am. I forget wh

You touched a sleeping lion, thinking that it's dead.“Hello, Mr Graham, can we meet at our usual place of meeting?”.“I told you to call only when it's an emergency”.Scumbag, if it's not an emergency would I even care to call you? So annoying. I said within me.“Mr Graham, of course it's an emergency. If it's not an emergency, I wouldn't dare to call you”. I explained myself.“Go ahead, what's the problem?”“Someone knows our secret and she is threatening to submit the evidence to the police”.“How careless could you be girl?! I told you that you should always double che

Doctor said that she was brutally raped and so many infection has been introduced into her body. I never knew that Bruno could be so ruthless and brutal for Cherry's sake. “Who did this to her?”. Andrew asked me as he saw Miriam's condition. “It's Cherry's boyfriend, Bruno”. I replied. “Did you make Miriam to drug Cherry?”. He asked while looking at me intently. “I didn't do anything. Miriam was desperate to destroy Cherry's life. I told her to calm down for us to strategize a good means to achieve that but she was too desperate to get rid of Cherry”. I explained without batting an eye or feeling guilty about my lies. “The footage that I watched said a diffferent thing. Miriam told me all the plans that you have installed for Cherry before this incident happened. And now you are saying something different because you feel that Miriam can't

This business made me who I am today.I have a powerful backer who helped me to take down Emma and he was also the one that introduced me to this current business that I am into.“Mr Smith cheers for our prosperity”. I said to Mr Smith who I went to see at the bar.“I am glad that you are enjoying the business. With this business we can rule the world”. Mr Smith said and emptied his glass of wine.“But we have to be really careful. The business gives lots of money but it's very risky”. “I have told you that as long as you are in my protection, you are safe.

I looked around the tables but she was nowhere to be found.“Are you looking for your wife?”. One of the waitresses asked me and I nodded vigorously.“She went this way and I saw four groups of boys touching her”.“Please take me to her immediately”. The waitress took me to her and when we got to the door it was locked but someone was screaming inside.“Open this door if not I will break the door”. No one came to open the door for me.Fear gripped me. I imagined all sorts of things at the same time.Let it not be that they have succeeded with my woman.“Go and call for help already”. I yelled at the waitress who just stood there. I was pushing the door but it wasn't opening. I heard Cherry's painful scream. I got really angry and broke the door.Thank
