“Spill it Gab!”Maya said coldly, she hadn't meant to treat her confidant like that but keeping such a huge secret from her had nettled her so much. She felt so silly for blindly thinking she was the only one going through an emotional torture.“He came to me shortly after you found out about his child, but that night he got so drunk and tried to have his way with me till I knocked him out and escaped.”Maya's eyes met hers, Gabrielle didn't blink, she was telling the truth, she could tell. Everything looked like a crazy dream she wouldn't mind waking up from but it was all okay, she wasn't going to allow herself to be dragged down.“Let's go shopping.”Gabrielle's eyes widened, she had expected a different word from her, was Maya still mad at her? She couldn't tell, her expression was totally unreadable.She was still looking at her friend and wondering what she was thinking when her phone rang loudly, she checked the caller identity but it was strange, she reluctantly picked up the

“It has all been sorted now.”Amelia felt herself relax the moment that word left Drake’s tongue. She eased her agitation , Leonard's trap had failed. She had contemplated reaching out to her father for help but decided against it hoping desperately the Harris will be able to resolve it all on their own, fortunately they did.Everything had been falling in place lately except for her slow leg recovery, Jayden had added on so much weight and he looks almost healthy now. Three months of careful care had done the magic.Strangely, the peace and stability worried Amelia,Everyday felt like it was going to end with bad news but it never did, Drake lay down on the bed beside her, staring intently into her amber eyes.“You keep me hooked, you know that?”Amelia couldn't help but blush, the Infinity Demon is starting to work his magic on her, she felt herself melting under his scrutinizing gaze. She couldn't help but wonder if the forever was going to remain this way.She wanted to respond wi

Ryan felt the tumbler slip out of his hand and fell. Water splattered everywhere and the broken pieces of the tumbler scattered. Two of the cleaning crew in the restaurant rushed over to clear the mess.He staggered forward towards Gabrielle whose left eye had tears streaming down her soft cheeks already. Understanding set in between them without any word as Ryan drew her into an embrace.Maya couldn't believe her eyes, Gabrielle had kept such information away from her, she felt hurt and foolish. She knew asking her about it was the right reasoning, but at that moment, she couldn't reason at all.Ryan and Brian returned home after accompanying the two ladies back to their apartment. The day seemed to have an heaviness embedded in its softness as they got home to see everyone panicking.Drake was pacing endlessly while Cole kept shaking like a jellyfish. Amelia was out of their sight and so was Jayden. Ryan tried to inquire what happened but Brian didn't seem interested,he was immersed

“Amelia,are you happy here?”Amelia's eyes met her father's,she could sense the vulnerability in his voice and her heart broke.In truth, Drake had been nice to her recently but she was still skeptical if it was going to last forever.“Dad,I ….”The door opened and Drake walked in, Amelia felt her next word caught up in her throat,too hard to swallow,she wondered desperately if he had overheard their conversation but his next action dissuaded her doubt.“Mr Dinkins,Mrs Dinkins,a pleasant afternoon to you.” He said with a pleasant smile.“Oh dear! Call me Helena.” Her mother responded happily.Graham didn't look convinced, he wore an unreadable expression on his face making him appear more intimidating than necessary but Drake wasn't the least bit affected, afterall,he had transacted business with more domineering personalities.“My mother just made lunch, would you like to join us?”“Sure!” Helena said excitedly in sync with her husband’s outburst.“I will pass”“Graham! My dear,don't

“One! Two! Three! Fou….”Drake rushed over to Amelia who almost dropped on one knee.She sighed dejectedly at her clumsiness,it has been a whole week since her discharge from the hospital but her therapy session was still as frustrating as ever.Drake had taken it upon himself to help her with her healing phase but taking fast steps saps away her knee strength every time she tries.“How long was she going to be glued to a damn wheelchair!” She thought inwardly.“Steady babe, I gat you.”Drake smiled warmly at her and she felt her heart thumped loudly in her chest.Pamela who was pacifying Jayden couldn't help but throw excited gaze their way,She had been skeptical about the marriage initially but thankfully Amelia seemed to have found her way into Drake's stoic heart.Two days earlier she had stumbled upon Drake unhooking Anabelle’s large portrait in his hallway and she watched him dump it into a storage room.She could tell he was sad but nothing about his actions afterwards showed reg

Amelia rubbed her eyes for the uptenth time but the strategy proved abortive.She wasn't dreaming,it was Maya. Maya smiled warmly and hugged her lovingly.She drew back immediately not to puncture Amelia's stitches.Maya sat on the chair beside her bed while Gabrielle took turns hugging Amelia.Seeing their duo, excitement filled her heart.Their father had told her he sent Maya on a vacation with Gabrielle but seeing both of them back in one piece,she was overwhelmed with joy.“You don't look sick sister,the Harris aren't bad at babysitting.” Maya said teasingly.“Silly.” Amelia responded softly and they both laughed heartily but Gabrielle looked gloomy which Amelia didn't fail to notice.She exchanged questioning look with Maya who scoffed loudly,“Yeah, speaking of the Harris, Gabrielle had one popped her cherry two days ago.”“Maya!” Gabrielle screamed, eyeing her disdainfully.“Yeah,I am such a big mouth but I am glad Mother Teresa finally got a dick down there.”“Eww! So gross of yo

Drake felt himself stir up as someone tapped his shoulder,he rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked up,to his astonishment,it was none other than Amelia.She stood up on her legs smiling pleasantly at him.Excitement filled his heart and he stood up abruptly,on the verge of kissing her forehead,she spoke out and he drew back because the voice was different.“Are you that excited to see me?”Drake drew back in time to see the face again,it wasn't Amelia but his late wife Anabelle.She furrowed her brow at the obvious disappointment in Drake's countenance.She tried to hug him but he pulled away, giving her a cold stare,the last time he had seen her,she was apologizing profusely to him for God knows what!But today,it seems seduction was her aim.Drake tried to talk but he couldn't find his voice.he struggled harder but he still couldn't so he just gave up and watched Anabelle enjoy her moment.She kept ranting bitterly about her loneliness and wanted to talk about a secret when Drake felt anoth

Amelia smiled shyly as she exchanged knowing looks with Drake, strangely,they tend to do that a lot in recent days, precisely since she got hurt.He gave her a reassuring smile as he watched the therapist’s attempt at getting his wife back on her feet.Few hours ago,they had both stood in front of the camera to reveal Amelia in a wheelchair shutting off Jennifer’s weird drama. Thankfully, Leonard Lang had survived the surgery.The therapist raised Amelia's hand and she attempted to follow her stride but to her displeasure, Amelia was on the verge of falling when Drake sped impulsively to her side to hold her up,they exchanged another lingering gaze and this time around something shocking exploded in both of them,Their faces only inches apart when the therapist cleared his throat,Drake and Amelia felt ashamed and drew away.This time,Drake knew it was dangerous to stay another second in the room.“I will be back.” He said without sparing another glance at the duo and walked out of the w

“They have found the source of the poison.”The echo of the word sounded in the rooms and two curious gazes lifted in Drake's direction.He moved closer to Amelia and Brian whose eyes remained on him.“Where? Who?” Brian questioned suspiciously.“It was arsenic,a lot of it.”He was about to say more but a knock sounded at the door and he stopped.Graham and Pamela Harris walked in, they exchanged pleasantries with them and Pamela rushed over to hug Amelia.She brought forward a basket of fruit she had had prepared and gifted it to her showing her sincere relief at her recovery,she apologized profusely that they had employed the head maid without knowing she was going to pose a harm to the family.On the far end of town, Jennifer picked up her baby and held her to her chest as a young man dressed in casual joggers and a tee-shirt strolled close to her and handed something to her.She gave him a quick nod and hid it in her dress.“Jenny!”Leonard called from behind her and she hastily adju
