Time To Leave

AutumnI stood by Maria’s door, contemplating on whether or not to knock.“Why did I even succumb to this?” I asked myself.I shouldn’t even be allowing my mum to cajole me or emotionally persuade me into doing this. Why in heaven’s name was I being asked to befriend Dante’s fiancée?“Maybe I should go back and just book that flight,” I said to myself again.What was the point? Besides, Dante had already accused me unjustly, and he had also been acting off since she arrived. I turned to leave, but I just couldn’t bring myself to doing that. As much as I would like to turn around and walk away, I just couldn’t.Gently, I knocked, and then I waited patiently for her to answer the door.“Come in,” her voice floated from inside the room.I opened the door and walked in. I met Maria having her makeup and pedicure done.“Good morning,” I cleared my throat and greeted, feeling uncomfortable and wishing that I had listened to my instincts and not bother coming into her room.“Could you get t

She Is Also Family

DanteI walked into the living room and went straight to the dining table, but I couldn’t place a smile on my face.I had the roughest night I had ever had.“Right on time for breakfast,” my dad stated.His voice had an underlying message, which I received clearly. He was stating that I was lucky to have come downstairs for breakfast when I was asked to otherwise he would have been cross with me.Like I cared that much.“Good morning, Dante,” Mabel greeted cheerily.“Good morning,” I grunted a response.Maria turned and looked at me.“Really, Dante?” She asked me.I looked at her without a clue in the world what she might be talking about.“You haven’t said a word or even kissed your fiancée, Dante,” my dad spoke up for her.“I literally just walked in,” I muttered.“You have been here for at least ten seconds,” Maria said.“Just do the bloody needful so that we can all have dinner, Dante,” my dad urged strictly.He was really trying so hard to piss me off and it was working. Unfortun

Don't Mess This Up

AutumnThe moment Dante’s lips touched mine, I melted into him and reciprocated the kiss with abandon.Dante knew just how to kiss gently and also demanding at the same time. He asked to gain access to my mouth, and I granted it to him without hesitation. We kissed, and everything else melted away. It was as though the kiss was the only thing that mattered.“Mm,” Dante groaned into my mouth.It was a deep throaty sound, and it followed right through my throat to the insides of my body, causing me to shiver with pleasure. My knees became too weak to hold me, and as if on cue, Dante held me close with his strong and protective hands, and he deepened the kiss.And I savored it.It was as though I was kissing for the very first time and I couldn’t get enough of it. “Don’t stop kissing me, Dante,” I murmured with blissful pleasure.“I don’t have any intentions to,” Dante responded.Our voices were very low, but we could hear each other loud and clear because we spoke directly into each ot

Family Breakfast

AutumnIf I didn’t go down, maybe the next person I would see in the room would be Mateo, and I wasn’t certain I wanted to face him alone right now.“Why can’t they have this damn breakfast without me?” I asked myself as my shoulders sagged sadly.Gosh, I was freaking frustrated. It seemed like everything was crashing down on me and I didn’t have a hiding place.“Breathe, Autumn, you can do this,” I urged myself.I inhaled and exhaled, and I did that a couple of times before I felt a little bit relieved.“It’s just breakfast, which shouldn’t be more than forty minutes,” I assured myself, all in a bid to make myself feel better. “All you just have to do is get there, sit through it with a smile like the world is a great place, and afterwards, you can think of what to do. Then, you wouldn’t have anyone breathing down your throat for a freaking show up,” I added with firmness.If I didn’t encourage myself, who would?With that, I inhaled and exhaled one last time before I went out of the

Perfect Distraction

AutumnMy mum should never have said a word, and now, Dante, his fiancée, and I were on our way to a game of horse riding.And I was sitting at the back like a child.“I absolutely love horse riding!” Maria gushed.She had been talking nonstop since we left the house. Dante rarely responded to most of what she was saying, and I just sat quietly at the back, wishing that I wasn’t here. If only I had had the balls to turn it down and just hide away in the room until I found a solution to my problem.When we arrived there, Dante parked the car, got out, went to the other side of the car and opened it for Maria to come down just as he had done when we left the house. I didn’t wait for him to open the door for me.“Oh my gosh, I already see the horse I want to bet my stakes on!” Maria said and hurried towards the horses lined up for stakes and racing, leaving Dante and I.“Autumn,” he started, but I also spoke at the same time.“I am sorry that I am here interrupting moments with your fian

The Other Woman

DanteAs the game went on, my mind drifted to the car racing that happened a while ago, and I couldn’t help it.While everyone else saw horses, I saw Autumn racing with my car and doing way better than the son of my biggest rival.“It’s thrilling, right?” Maria asked, her voice cutting through my thought.“What?” I asked dumbly, trying to bring myself back to reality.“The horse riding, of course,” Maria said.“Oh, yeah, true,” I lied.The whole time, I hadn’t even had a clue what was going on. I wasn’t even seeing the horses, and I kept fighting the urge to turn back and steal a glance at Autumn.“The horse I staked on is definitely doing great,” Maria said.“Yes, he is,” I answered indifferently. I couldn’t recall what horse she had bet her stakes on, but I just had to play along. If Autumn’s mum had just kept her mouth shut, I wouldn’t be here, forcing myself through a bloody horse riding game. What I wanted right now was to book a flight for Maria so that she could return home.M

An Embarrassing Moment

Autumn“What kind of music do you like, Autumn?” Eric asked me tenderly.“I like soft music,” I answered.He turned on the stereo and a good music began to play. It was calm and relaxing, and not at all loud.“This is refreshing,” I told Eric.“I am glad you like it. I like soft music too. It helps me to relax and feel better,” he said.“Me too,” I said with a smile.He was driving at average speed, and since I didn’t know exactly where he was taking me, I just decided to relax. Ironically, I felt a little safe in his presence, or maybe it was because I could still recognize the paths he was driving through.“So, you are not a local here,” Eric started.“No, I am not,” I answered.“And you wanted to try something new,” he said, repeating what I had said earlier.“Yes, I did,” I responded.“I am just curious,” he said. “Who did you come to visit?” He asked me.This was an easy question that I could easily answer.“My mum got married and moved down, and I only came to acquaint myself wi

The Tiger's Tail

Dante“Don’t make me repeat myself,” I warned as I aimed my gun at the bastard.Autumn got out from the car first, her expression filled with rage.“What the fuck is wrong with you, Dante?” She questioned me angrily.But I didn’t want to respond to her by losing focus.“Get down!” I yelled at him, but he just stared at me.I kept aiming at him, and also fixed my gaze at him. His hands were still on the steering wheel, so I would know when he moved any of them in an attempt to reach for his own gun. He was definitely holding a gun; that, I was sure of.This was my opportunity to end the life of this bastard, but I didn’t want to spill blood right in front of Autumn because I already knew that she would be traumatized by it.“Dante, stop this!” She yelled at me.Autumn came closer to me and tried to bring my hand down.“Don’t you dare, Autumn,” I warned her sternly even though I worried that she wouldn’t listen.She was a very stubborn woman, but for the sake of both our lives, I wanted

Painful Words

DanteWith the way Autumn kept going, yelling and shouting my ears off, I knew I couldn’t take her back to the horse riding game, or even the house like this.For one, everyone would know exactly what happened, and I didn’t want that, so, when I realized that we were in a safe place and not an isolated place where an ambush can be laid, I stopped the car.“Why are you stopping?” Autumn asked.She was still fuming.I had been driving for over thirty minutes, and not once had she lowered her voice or reduced her anger.“What is wrong with you?” I asked Autumn.Her mouth fell open in shock for a few seconds.“What is wrong with me?” She asked me back. “You didn’t just ask me that, Dante,” she stated.I was sitting in front while she sat at the back. I didn’t even need to turn around to see that she was upset. I was also upset, and even though it wasn’t at her, her tantrums were really beginning to get on my nerves.“Yes, what is wrong with you?” I insisted on the question.“You shot at a

Two Women At A Time

DanteI managed to get Autumn into the car, and as much as I would have liked to drive her right back to the house, I couldn’t.I had to pick Maria up as well.The game had ended and she had been buzzing my cell phone nonstop. Driving to the house first before going back to the game would take too much time, and more importantly, I needed to see David. I could barely wait.Autumn sat quietly at the back. I cast a glance at her through the rearview mirror, and she looked downcast and broken. I wondered briefly if she was like this as a result of the fact that I fired a gun at that man, or that she was already falling for him. It sounded impossible, but people fell in love with people at the first sight. Maybe that was the reason she was fighting so hard for him.Was she thinking about him right now? I arrived at the game. A lot of people were already leaving, and Maria was waiting for me, fuming.“Today has to be the worst day for me…to have two women who are mad at me,” I said to my
