I was already getting tired and annoyed, not only was Nathaniel crazy, cold and heartless all his staffs too exude those quality. It had been close to an hour already, and he hadn’t even made any attempt to show up or ask that I come in. “who the hell does he exactly think he is” I snorted, placing my hands on the door to knock. “If I do this for the next ten minutes, without getting any responds, I would…” I burst into a loud cry as the situation looked hopeless, because there is no much I can do rather than to wrap my arms around my body and cry my eyes out of its socket. NAT POV I stood by my window with a binocular observing the environment while waiting for her arrival. Several uncertain thought cladded my mind which made me a bit worried and restless. I couldn’t tell why I kept worrying about her, not that she is special or extremely beautiful, but there is something that just makes me worried without cost. All my life I have hated the sight of women, I see them as confused sex

Turing back wasn’t an option as it would only make thing worst for me and my family. If I had the chance to choose again, I would rather not marry him than live in misery for the rest of my life. The drive to the last floor was a bit long, and very quiet so much that even a pin would cause a thunderous sound when it’s hit the floor. The elevator soon stopped and we came out, the other men on black were down and in their rightful position before we got there. The moment we came out, all the workers stopped what they were doing, and bowed to him. It felt really strange and new to me “Is he regarded as a god here?” I grilled while still trying to calm my nerves. I became nervous the moment we got out of the elevator because he still held firm to my hands and everybody who passed by saw me, I could hear little murmurs from the people behind, and I didn’t need a prophet to tell me that I was the reason for the murmur. As soon as we left the building, several black tinted cars were aligned a

But at the same time, I advised myself not to put so much hope in that because he is unpredictable and heartless. The car stopped at the hotel and we all came down except the driver who kept stealing glances at me. The moment we got into the compound of the hotel, all the men outside stopped what they were doing and bowed to him “wow!! He owns the place too.” I whispered as I followed him at his back. A man suddenly ran out form the hotel and came to us, greeting and prostrating as though he had seen a god. Nathaniel excused us for a moment and went to talk to him. I couldn’t help but to let out a wide smile that forced it way out of my lips this was like a dream come true for me. I looked towards their direction and noticed the man, at interval looked at me while nodding his head I knew the conversation was about me and for some strange reason, I couldn’t wait to hear what the outcome of their conversation would be. After some minutes, the conversation was over and Nathaniel walked

“What are you doing here by this time? And how did you get here?” she questioned in a whisper, shut the door against her and came out to meet me. I didn’t need to ask why she decided to come out to meet me rather than going inside, because my father wasn’t in any position to hear all the heart breaking things that has happened to me today, it would only add to the stoke he has and I wasn’t ready for that. A long silence paused our conversation as she peered into my eyes trying to read meaning from every expression and glint of sadness she saw “I know you are not happy, so tell me about it” she propped in a low but concerned tone. I took in a deep breath and started narrating all that happened, but ended it with “I can face it, don’t worry about me Mom, I would be fine” I didn’t know where that strength came out from, and beside my parent were already going through a difficult time, adding more to their problems would only worsen the case. “You know you still don’t have to do th

“What!!” I yelled at the top of my voice without evening know when I did. “How the fuck did she outsmart three hefty useless men”. I bellowed, as the boiling sound of anger mead it way to my brain. I picked up my phone and dialed a number I was already burning in furry and couldn’t control myself. I hated it when people go against command, and whenever they do, I don’t hesitate in giving then their slice of cake. As soon as the person on the other side picked, I exhaled “You are fired! Get the fuck, out of my Hotel, you and the three pieces of shit that I sent to guard her” I said to the manager, and ended the call without waiting to hearing what he had to say. I got into my car breathing heavily, as much as I expected what happened, I didn’t still believe that Ashely would be able to outsmart them, I checked my time and wondered where she would be, and silently prayed that she comes back and get her own share of punishment for going against my command. I laid my head on the
