Desperate Measures

IVYI got dressed and headed downstairs. I ensured that I dressed up in a way that Mark liked, and also in a way that would arouse him.The only person I had told since I got back and got together with Mark that he hadn’t been able to get it up with me was my mum; she was the only one I always confided in anyway. From the sex video I sent to Alexa, she would definitely think that it was me in that video, but it wasn’t.Knowing that Mark was finding it hard to get erected with me, I had to pay someone else to get it done, and thankfully, she did a pretty excellent job.“I just have a lot on my mind going on,” Mark had often told me, but I knew they were all excuses.Before the accident, he could barely get his hands off me. We were always wrapped up in each other’s arms, but now, it seemed as though I was no longer attractive to him. So if Mark couldn’t get erect for me, how did he do it with Alexa? I confronted him about it, and he didn’t bother to deny it, which meant that it was tru

Something Isn't Adding Up

MARKStaying in my study and soaking myself in work was just my only way to cope with the divorce and everything that happened that day.Truly, Alexa was nothing like I knew before.My worry now talking about it to anyone, especially that friend of hers. I tried to imagine Alexa telling Noelle how she allowed me to kiss her and then ended up not liking it, and of course, they would giggle over it and make jest of me, and if I was unfortunate, it would get to the blogs, and I would be doomed forever.Jeez!I couldn’t even bring myself to telling Vector what happened. When he had asked, I had simply told him that the divorce was finalized and I had set Alexa free, but deep inside, I knew exactly what I was feeling. Deep down, I wished I hadn’t set her free.“Is my kissing terrible?” I asked myself.I hadn’t been able to do much since I sat on my chair for hours now, because Alexa’s hurtful words kept playing in my head, and it was making me sick to my stomach. Damn, I had my first kiss

Note Of Finality

ALEXA“Noelle, I finally know what I want to do now,” I said to Noelle during breakfast.After the encounter with Mark, and oh, I did hide details of it from Noelle when I returned, and thankfully, because of the signed papers, Noelle didn’t prod me much or asked for every single detail. I intentionally skipped the part of Mark kissing me deeply and passionately and almost falling for his charms.Noelle didn’t need to know that.“This is good!” Noelle said happily. She seemed pretty excited, because she had been bugging me to find something I was passionate about.“Throwing yourself into building a career and making a name for yourself is going to help you get over that jerk faster than you can imagine,” Noelle had always said.And now, I was ready.“So what have you concluded?” Noelle asked with anticipation.“Men’s fashion,” I simply answered, and Noelle stared at me as though I was crazy or something.“Huh?” She asked.“Men’s fashion,” I repeated.“Why men’s fashion, Alexa? What do

An Exception

MARKIt was the day of my doctor’s appointment, and thankfully, it was also going to be in the confines of my mansion.After I got out of coma and became a little better, I returned home and began to take my treatment at home, because the hospital just made me uncomfortable. The blogs had already carried news of the accident, and I knew without a doubt that they would keep their ears open for more information, and I did not want them to know what I was hiding from anyone.It had also made me do a lot of things in the house, including work, which I realized I even preferred, because it saved me from a lot of scandals and gossips. Anyway, I waited for Doctor Jones in my bedroom. A few minutes later, I heard a knock. Thinking that it had to be the doctor or my maid coming to inform me of his arrival, I simply said, “Come in.”Much to my dismay, Vector opened the door and walked in.“Oh fuck, Vector, what are you doing here?” I asked, not bothering to mask my displeasure.Over time, I h

Start Of Something New

ALEXAIn the next couple of days, Noelle and I plunged ourselves into opening my brand; from picking out a suitable brand name, to thinking about an office space, to getting designers and creating new designs, or sourcing out social media advertisement, and planning for the brand launch.It was so magical and almost unreal that Noelle’s father had loaned me the money in the twinkle of an eye; as soon as Noelle mentioned it to him.So busy was Noelle and I that I did not even have any spare time to think about Mark, or my divorce, or anything else.“We have to get the bloggers to attend, and of course, I am going to use my father’s influence to get these top businessmen and billionaires to attend,” Noelle told me as I wrote every single thing down.One of the things we had both dedicated ourselves to was ensuring that we put down every single thing we talk about and suggestions. That way, we would not forget anything, and it also helped up plan properly.“Even though we are going to be

The Other Daughter

IVYToday seemed to be a great day, because Alexa’s dad managed to come downstairs for lunch. I was wondering how long he would continue sulking over the estrangement with Alexa, which was giving me great joy by the way.Their relationship had always made me jealous from the very beginning.He was so fond of her and it was infuriating to watch. At first, I had admired it and wished that I had a dad who loved and cherished, and even supported me like Mr. Silver did with Alexa, although, he all fairness, he also treated me almost equally, but it was just not the same. Then it transcended to hatred and jealousy when I saw how well it made Alexa bloomed.The first day the jealousy and hatred started was when Alexa was referred to as “Daddy’s little princess,” and I just stood there like I didn’t exist.“Thank goodness you came downstairs, honey. You have emaciated greatly, and I have been worried sick,” Clara said dutifully and lovingly.Then we both shared glances and I smiled, shaking m

Deep Curiosity

MARKI allowed Vector to drag me to Dancing Devils after several other attempts, because it would be good for me.I had been locked up in my house, trying to bury myself in my job to avoid thinking about the conversation I had with my doctor about my sexual competence.“Well, I hope you are not going to sulk the entire time and bore us to death,” Mickey said as the waitress served our drinks.I was specific about what kind of drinks I took. Luckily, no one was ever suspicious why I now preferred some particular choices of drinks over others since the accident, including Vector. To them, they simply thought I was just being like everyone else placing their orders.“I don’t think we have anything to worry about,” Barry said. “His ex-wife will not be turning up tonight, and even if she does and spoils his mood, we will simply switch tables,” he added.“Has Alexa been here ever since that night?” I couldn’t help but ask.I knew that asking might give some type of impression, but I really

Painful Rejection

ALEXANoelle and I finished from the press office where we went to get my brand name registered and labeled.We had eventually come to the conclusion of “Alexa’s Touch On Men – ATOM” and it was just perfect! I could rarely wait for the launch now as we had been able to achieve a lot over the last couple of days. Almost everything was set. We had been able to book the hall for the launch party and contacted vendors and event planners to help fix the event.“I just want everything to be perfect,” I told Noelle over and over again.“And it will be, Alexa, relax,” she said, chuckling.The day before, Alexa and I arranged the invitation boxes in a grand and stylish way, and according to our guest list, sent them out through a courier service.“If we must get these billionaires to attend and sign me for contracts aside from your dad’s influence in getting them there, then the invitation must be something that would soothe their pride and status,” I had told Noelle.“Of course,” Noelle had

Not Their First Time

ALEXAThe tears flowed freely, and even when Noelle came over to me and joined me on the floor to console me, I could not stop crying.“He rejected my invitation, Noelle,” I said amidst the tears and bitterness.“You are going to hurt yourself if you continue crying like this,” Noelle said, her voice filled with pity and sympathy towards.I had been skeptical about sending an invitation to him because I was scared and worried about being turned down, but I had no idea that it would hurt me this much. My heart was broken into several tiny pieces, and my throat was tight.“I can’t stop crying,” I told Noelle as more tears flowed. “What if he never forgives me? What if I have lost my dad just because of one reckless night at the club?” I asked, my voice breaking as I cried profusely.Noelle figured that if she continued talking, it would likely fall on deaf ears, because she could feel my pain and brokenness from my tears and the sound of my voice. So instead, Noelle gathered me in her a

Her Mistake

ALEXAA few years back, shortly after the doctor announced that Mark had woken up from his coma and I had happily announced to dad and Clara about the good news, I had received a call from Clara.It had been a surprise, because Clara never called me, and the first thought that had come to my mind was that something was wrong with my dad.“Clara?” I had answered the phone with a dreadful anticipation.“Where are you?” Clara had asked, sounding displeased over the phone, which wasn’t new, because she had never masked her dislike towards me, even in the presence of my dad.“At home, fixing the house and making arrangement for Mark’s return home,” I had answered innocently.Indeed, right after Mark woke up, he had demanded to be taken out of the hospital; he had wanted to continue his treatment from the comfort of his mansion, and away from the nosy eyes of bloggers and gossips.Unfortunately, I hadn’t been right there when he had woken up; I had gone for a quick grocery shopping for the
