KARENTwo days later, we drove to California to the Grey family house. "We are here now; you better behave yourself," he warned. I replied sarcastically, "I should be telling that to a certain someone. I am even surprised he didn't bring a certain mistress with him." He frowned, his face dark. "What nonsense are you talking? Just behave yourself; you don't want to rile the old man up," he warned. We alighted from the car, walking hand in hand to the Grey family mansion. It was a very large building and was so magnificent. I was admiring the scenery when all of a sudden, my face blanked. I saw an unpleasant figure in the distance. He was wearing a black suit and spotted a smile on his face. His smile looked lewd and sinister to me. I glared at him with hate. I hated him deep to the bones and always wished that he would just topple down and

DEVONI was infuriated seeing how my grandfather was strongly supporting her and scolding me. I wished I could just expose her for who she is and let the whole family know what they did.Alas, I just can't. If Grandpa were to hear a thing of what she did, she would end up sooner than expected, which isn't according to my plan. She had to suffer more and would be crushed mentally until she feels she couldn't live anymore.Luckily, Grandma wasn't deceived and had seen her for who she is. The very proud Stacy seems to have taken a liking to her and had dragged her with him.A pot-bellied man with a bald head walked towards the main table."Mr. George, I didn't know you would come today," I said as I stood up to greet him. He had a very sly smile on his face, and one could tell that he was a very crafty businessman."Of course, I must come so I can wish a happy birthday to the Grey family head," he said as he brought out a well-

KARENI woke up in the morning feeling blissful. I opened my eyes and saw that I was lying on a man's chest. My heart sped up, and I rose in panic, only to see that it was Devon. Then, I calmed down.He was already awake and staring at me with his cold abyss eyes."You were so drunk yesterday that you didn't even know when you were taken to a room," he said."That's not true," I denied. "It was your sister who said I could sleep in this room yesterday, and you weren't here then."He kept silent and didn't say anything else. We just stared at each other. The scene was slowly turning romantic. After some minutes, he said coldly, "Aren't you going to freshen up and stop gazing?" The almost romantic scene was destroyed just like that.I dragged myself off the bed and headed to the washroom. I brushed my teeth and washed my face. Since I didn't have a change of clothes, I decided to go outside the room to see if I could find Stac

KAREN I arrived at the dining room after getting dressed. Stephan had left, leaving a long line of curses. I couldn't be bothered with the idiot and completely ignored him.Devon had already arrived with Grandma and Grandpa. They were sitting at the table while waiting. I greeted everybody politely before going over to sit beside Devon.Grandpa Grey smiled at me, while Grandma Grey pretended not to hear me. Soon, Stacy came in with a few other members I didn't recognize, and she sat beside me.Everyone started eating."Devon, when are you two going to get married?" Grandpa Grey said, breaking the silence. Devon paused and glanced at me. I shivered in fear and dropped my head low. The idea of marriage sounded both good and bad at the same time.Imagine how I was in hell already when we are still engaged. What will happen when we get married then?"Maybe soon," he replied casually, as if he was talking abo

DEVON The next morning, I woke up early and tried to get up. I felt a heavy weight on my chest, and when I looked, I was greeted by the sight of the teary-faced Karen. She was sleeping, with tear stains all over her face. Her body was in a total mess, and the clothes she wore barely covered her private parts. I lied back to think. What really happened last night was really intense; I didn't even know what got over me. It was like it wasn't me, but a demon inside of me that seemed to have been awoken. I myself could be considered as a demon by many people, but I still felt that I crossed the line yesterday. Of course, I wasn't feeling guilty and only felt a little sorry for her. I slowly pulled myself away from her and got up. I decided not to stay in the room, as seeing me the moment she wakes up might get her agitated. I went to my other roo

DEVON Frank Street, New York. It was a less bustling street during the daytime than at night due to being a residential area. The driver pulled the car over; I alighted, carefully studying the desolated street before walking towards a coffee shop on the side.Two of my men followed closely. Inside the coffee shop, three men were in the corner: one was sitting, while the rest were all standing. The one sitting was a middle-aged man, about forty years old. He looked very handsome and was probably a woman killer during his younger days.He wore a peaceful expression on his face. The two men, one black and the other Chinese, were standing. The black guy was heavily built, while the Chinese guy was only average.The man looked up and smiled cheerfully when he saw me. He had a very amiable expression, which was actually a facade; in reality, he was a very scheming businessman and could go to lengths to achieve his

KARENI stood, staring at the wedding papers that I was holding. Yes, I had been married to Devon. He came back one day and asked that we should go get a marriage certificate. He didn't say anything about going to marry. Maybe he thinks it's nothing significant.That morning, he drove me to the court, and our marriage papers were prepared quickly, the whole process done so swiftly. It was nothing like the magnificent wedding that I used to dream of, yet I didn't dare complain, lest he became angry and punished me.Now, I officially belonged to Devon, and I didn't know if I should be happy or sad. 'Perhaps, it isn't a bad thing, and he might actually change with time,' I thought.It's already late at night, and all I want is to sleep. These days, I always felt that someone is following me, and it always gives me sleepless nights and caused lots of nightmares for me.Tonight, Devon wasn't staying in Devon's house because he had trave

DEVON I arrived at Miami by two o'clock in the afternoon; the city was very lively and bustling."Hey, call Mr. Wick now," I said to one of my men."Yes, boss." He went to the side to make a phone call, and after a few minutes, he returned. "Boss, he said we should wait for him at Dreams Hotel.""Is a hotel safe for such discussions?" I frowned, wondering what the man was thinking."He said that Dreams Hotel has private VIP dining rooms, and the doors are soundproof. There are also no cameras in the room, making it the most suitable place for such discussions," he replied."Hmm! Okay, then we'll wait for Kevin to bring the cars." I leaned back, took out a cigarette, and lit it before taking a puff. I relaxed, waiting for my men to bring me a car.I was sitting inside a high-end restaurant, lavishly decorated. People in Miami tend to be lavish. Miami is well known for its beaches, especially South Beach.

KARENI couldn't sleep throughout the night until early morning, around four, before I slept. The woman, Laura, was a very vicious woman and, at the point of a gun, she asked me to divorce Devon, or else I'd face the consequences.She had tortured me by forcing my head inside a huge drum filled with water. It felt like I was drowning in the deep ocean as I held my breath tightly.When I woke up, it was nine o'clock. I was surprised that I slept that long. I checked my phone and saw that I had lots of missed calls. Alice called me three times, and Diana called me once.I decided to call Diana first and tell her that I wouldn't be coming in early today. I wasn't even sure whether I would come at all. After calling her, I called Alice next."What's up, Keira? Why didn't you pick your calls? Are you trying to anger me?" She said fiercely.I laughed. "No, it's not that. I overslept; I didn't hear the phone ringing." I explained.

KARENYesterday's competition was great, and Alice won; I was quite happy for her. I woke from the buzzing of my phone alarm, rubbed my eyelids while stifling a yawn.Today, I had an appointment with one of my clients who had paid one thousand dollars for home service. So, I decided not to hurry and get a beauty sleep. My thoughts drifted as I thought of my mom. I hadn't visited her for a long while now, and I made up my mind to go and see her during the weekend.After a few minutes, I got up again. This time I couldn't get back to sleep, so I went to the washroom to freshen up. After brushing, I decided to attempt some chores since I wasn't in a hurry.A few minutes later, I was done with the chores, went to the washroom to wash up, and then hurriedly changed my clothes, realizing that I'm about to run late for the appointment.I hurriedly took the toasts that I prepared beforehand before rushing out.I drove my car to my beauty salon first to get my makeup box."Good morning, Miss K
