Amarachi cried deeply on seeing herself handcuffed.
Jordan and chief Victor immediately went over to her side, trying to talk to the inspector."I didn't do it please. I didn't please. I'm not a thief"Amarachi said as she shed tears inconsolably.
"Inspector you can't take her. She's not the culprit"Jordan said as he held inspector Demilade's hand.
The inspector yanked her hands away from Jordan's grip and shot Jordan a hard glare."Inspector please Amarachi can't be responsible. She's not the real culprit"Chief victor interceded.
Jordan felt so pained on seeing what was going on with Amarachi.He knew she was framed and all his suspicion screamed Nicole's name.Nicole on the other hand wondered why her dad was supporting Amarachi so much. It made the hatred she had for Amarachi soar higher.
"Why are you so keen on me releasing this pickpocket Mr V
AMARACHI I stared at the ceiling of my room, heart beating in fear and trying to grasp the shock of what transpired earlier in the party this evening.Where did that girl go so suddenly?How could she vanish?She was in the party earlier. It really didn't make any sense to me but I did know she was responsible. But why did she do it?Now I was pretty sure the hatred Nicole had for me would unfailingly triple. I am trying my best to get along with Nicole but everything seems abortive.Nicole at that moment barged into my room, eyes staring at me with rage in them. I was shocked by her intrusion.I stood up immediately from the bed and approached her."Nicole I didn't steal your purse. I am not a thief. Please"I said softly attempting to convince her.Suddenly i watched as her glare turned to a grin. A mischievous grin."No
Amarachi stared at Chief Victor who kept his gaze fixed on the picture of her mother's face in the locket. A defeaning silence enveloped everywhere and Amarachi felt restless."Sir how do you know her name?"Chief victor looked at her with tears in his eyes.Why did he suddenly look so sad?She couldn't fathom the answer to that question."You..you..are...her daughter?"Chief victor stuttered as he stared continuously at the locket.Amarachi nodded her head slowly, unsure of what was going on.Chief victor suddenly looked so pale and frightened. She became scared by his sudden change of behaviour.Chief victor on the other hand couldn't believe it. How could he come in contact with Chinenye's daughter?His mind wandered back down memory lane as he remembered how he raped the poor girl, her plea for mercy resounding in his eyes once more.He also remembered when Lydia told hi
Amarachi stared at every store in the mall. Never had she been in such a place before. People swarm around her like bees. She spotted several white people. Everyone walked past her, chattering echoed everywhere as music boomed the entire atmosphere. The spine chilling air welcomed her in."Nicole should have told me the air here was too cold"Glancing at Nicole who walked beside her, the cold air had no effect on her. She was really used to it.There was a strong aroma of different exotic mouth watering dishes gracing the atmosphere."This place is so big"Amarachi whispered to Nicole.Nicole gave her a satisfied smile."You should see the malls in Dubai. They are bigger"Nicole must have really travelled much out of Nigeria. They were like two seperate people. Nicole grew up enjoying the luxuries of life, and Amarachi grew up with suffering and grief being her
"Say thank you else I'll throw you down the stairs"Raphael commanded.Nicole kept quiet for some seconds and Raphael almost dropped her.Amarachi and Nicole let out a shriek simultaneously.Jordan dragged Amarachi back as she was about standing up.He shook his head at her and caressed her arm."One"Raphael counted."Thank you"Nicole immedately said, panic gripping her."What did you say?"Raphael asked teasingly."T--thank you for s--saving me earlier this morning"Nicole stuttered.Raphael smiled at her, contended."Can you let me down now, carefully though"Nicole asked calmly.She was still in his arms and she had to tread carefully with her words.Raphael shook his head at her. "Nope"She was about protesting again but he began walking downstairs with her in his arms.Nicole suddenly felt uncomfortable and nervous.His scent was re
Raphael sat on the sofa, his mind perturbed. He tapped the pads of his fingers on the chair as his thoughts drifted back to Nicole.She looked so sad and withdrawn, he suddenly felt scared that she might hurt herself. He was getting anxious and agitated.Raphael stood up immediately and headed for the kitchen. On entering he spotted Nicole, back turned against him. She was crying.But her cries were silent. Her head was buried in the kitchen sink and it looked like she shut her mouth again. He slowly walked over to her. He stood behind her, his towering height above her's as he watched her. She must have sensed his presence which was why she slowly stood up yet she didn't face him. His legs moved on their accord as he came even more closer to her,his hot breath lingering on her neck.Her back was pressed against his front. Nicole sniffed her nose and wiped the t
AMARACHIFor a moment, it felt like I couldn't focus on anything aside the heavy pounding of my heart. I slowly started gasping for air whilst Diana watched me.Her lips pulled to a taunting sneer."Why do you look so shocked? You mean he didn't tell you he has gotten intimate with me? Wow. What more is he hiding from you?My chest heaved continuously. It felt like I had lost my voice.She gave me a smile which I knew very well was plastic. "You really don't think Jordan is the faithful type do you? C'mon darling look at him. He has a lot of sexual partners. You don't need to be shy. I knew you guys did something in there. C'mon tell me. How was he? Was he rough or gentle?"I swallowed the bile in my throat. I found it so difficult to speak. It suddenly felt like an inferno was raging within me. I couldn't react and I felt so glued to the spot."Well to me
"So you..um..you are under a mafia? You work..for....for..shit..you work for those people? Can you tell me more about the mafia you deal with?"Nicole stuttered as she sat up, horrified by his statements.She truly didn't know why she was interested in knowing more about Raphael.Raphael ran his hands across his black raven locks, he then stood up and sat close to her.Nicole became puzzled and wondered why he came over to sit by her."You really want to know more gattina?" "That's Italian. Does he speak Italian?" Nicole wondered.Nicole nodded her head at him without turning to face him. She didn't want to think of the unholy thoughts that would shroud her mind if she did turn to stare at him.Raphael brushed some strands of her long black hair off her shoulders and tucked it behind her ear.Nicole became more
Nicole stared at her laptop, eyes roving around the white screen. Her hands eagerly danced on the keyboard. She was perturbed, she was frightened, she was scared.Any words that could describe this sudden agitation and horror that she was drowning in.She was petrified as she kept on surfing on the net.Mafia.She was researching about mafias.The more she searched, the more horror struck she became. "A mafia is a type of criminal organisation whose central activity is the arbitration of disputes between criminals and the organization and efforcement of illicit agreements through the use of violence"Nicole drew in her breath suddenly as she read it aloud.Her heart sank and she gulped. Raphael was very dangerous. She still remembered the way he almost choked her and just the thought sent chills to her body.Her heart began thudding and she felt her breathing shortened.She qui
