Lisa turned away to face the door. What had she done? Her heart was palpitating wildly now, she'd just murdered someone. Her hands were trembling. Jayden whimpered when he tried to get up. "Shit!" he cursed.Lisa caught sight of blood! The wound was bleeding and had stained his blue t shirt. She heard sounds of feet running up the stairs in the distance. They'd probably heard the gunshot, she panicked, about two men were coming towards them."Barker!" A loud voice growled in front of the door. He tried to open the doorknob, it was locked.Jayden stiffened and cleared his throat. "Sir.."He staggered to the door and poked his head out, hiding his bloodied arm. "What the hell was that about? We heard the shots""Yes sir. This bitch here was being stubborn! I had to show her who's boss" Jayden growled in response."Are you okay?" The man asked again. "Should we come teach her some lesson?"Lisa's eyes grew wide. She held her breath as she waited for the answer. "I can take care of
Lisa walked to the wardrobe, she opened it and gasped! She ran her hands through the clothes, it was filled with clothes suitable for strippers. She backed off as realization hit her! They probably want to use her as a sex slave!As anxieties flooded her, Lisa willed herself to be calm. Her eyes caught a small compartment in the wardrobe. She moved closer and opened it, she froze!A metallic pistol was sitting in there! She took it up and examined the pistol. She'd never seen or held one all her life. She wondered who kept it there, they'd probably forgotten it. Perhaps she could use it as a means of escape. A loud bang suddenly sounded on the door. Lisa flinched! The banging increased. "Why did you lock the door?" A man yelled.Lisa quickly hid the pistol. She closed the wardrobe and hurried to the door to open it, a heavy slap landed on her face instantly! She fell to the floor. The man pounced on her, yanking her up by her hair!She held his hands, his grip on her hair was tight
"On your knees" he ordered. What?"You heard me right"A call came in on Forster's phone immediately. "Jayden" he breathed."She isn't Leolia?" Pause"Alright" Forster put the phone down.Lisa got up and handed the box to him, "Here it is. Can I have the money?" Forster grabbed the box, checked the contents out and smiled in satisfaction. "This is good" he grinned. He opened the cabinet and handed her a suitcase.Lisa opened it and gasped, the money didn't take up to half of the suitcase."How much is this?" she asked. "Seventy thousand dollars"."B..But it's supposed to be a hundred" she said. "I don't have it. You can leave!" He snapped."What? Sir Pablo would kill me" she trembled. "Sir pay me the money!" Lisa said in a louder voice Lisa moved back under his intense gaze. She knew his type, she'd worked with one three days ago, she just had to be firm.Forster laughed and walked to the cabinet. He poured out a drink and walked back to Lisa. "Who do you think you are?" He l
Rage flashed through his face. He hit her on her face, the force of the slap sent her staggering back against some bar stools. She yelped when her back hit a stool.Lisa held her face on the floor, tears streaming down her face. His hands were probably made of steel, her face hurt. He crouched beside her and yanked her by the hair. "Any other thing to say?"Lisa winced, he was pulling jer hair so bad that she felt her scalp would peel."Don't you bloody dare!" she heard a deep voice behind her..Vic laughed as he sent a punch across Pablo's face. The cunning devil dodged on time, his heart beating rapidly. He'd actually challenged Vic to a fight. And they were some distance away from the table where everyone was watching them.Pablo wasn't so fast to escape the next punch, blood spilled from his mouth. He moved back and sent a kick to Vic who dodged it expertly. Vic grabbed him by the leg and pushed him back. Pablo got up quickly, another blow landed on his belly. A heavy thud smac
Hailey sighed as she relaxed into his hold and enjoyed the sensation of his nibbling on her ears. She had waited long enough to be the CEO of Bronwyn Textiles. She hadn't dived into it to avoid suspicion from the Board Members . The plan was to take over from George using his invalidity as an excuse."Oh. You're so beautiful" Derian whispered into her ears.She sighed, he didn't seem to have things to do nowadays. Always directing all his energy towards sex. She pulled away from him. "Derian, please I'm tired".He grabbed her by the shoulder to face him and kissed her. Hailey responded and moaned enjoying the sensation until she heard a muffled voice at the door. "H..Hailey who's that?" They sprang away from each other. Hailey signalled for Derian to leave. "No one. George" she said sweetly walking towards him at the door.George creased his brows. "I haven't had anything for breakfast. I'm yet to take my medications" He grumbled. "Oh. But I got you pizza this morning" she
Naomi paced her room with a glass 🍷 of wine in her hands. She ran her hands nervously through her hair. She was worried and surprised to see her sister here. She was supposed to be happy her sister was back but she had a tense feeling like something bad is about to happen..The news of Valerisa's arrival was broken to her by Mrs Carden, her childhood nanny. She doesn't understand why her father had to treat her like she doesn't exist. He didn't have the time to inform her..She paused to look at herself in the mirror. Seeing Valerisa after four years unnerved her. Not that she isn't happy to see her sister but circumstances surrounding their last meeting warranted the strange feelings, she recalled the day Valerisa left, they had a fight with Valerisa promising to take revenge for her mother's death. .Ever since Valerisa left for university four years ago, she hasn't set her eyes on her..She dropped her glass on the drawer and was adjusting her hair in the mirror when a knock sound
Immediately the MC announced the party was over. Valerisa left for the mansion, she was already tired and restless cause of the witch she saw earlier. She hadn't thought she'd meet her here, ever since she left she hadn't returned cause the house reminds her of her mother. That was the reason why she chose to school in Culcata rather than here in Cali..Valerisa got to the sitting room and met Nanny and Alicia chatting excitedly. They stopped and exchanged looks when they saw her..Valerisa thanked her and headed to her room to have a cigarette while awaiting the call for dinner. She needed something to take her mind off her worries. She took to smoking and drinking in her 1st year in uni when her friends noticed her grief and coaxed her into it..Half an hour later, she heard a knock on the door, she hurriedly emptied the cigar into the ash tray and hid it in the bathroom. It might be Dad. Who knows? She opened the door and gave sigh of relief when she saw Alicia..Valerisa gave her
. Valerisa woke with a throbbing headache. She must have slept for a long time, by the amount of sunlight streaming in through the window. It was already noon. The throbbing in her temples increased as she tried to sit up on the bed. She felt dizzy all over. All her limbs ached as she suffered from fatigue..A knock sounded and the door opened. Valerisa sat up and stared in utter disbelief as her aunt walked in holding a tray. Aunt Hailey was her favorite aunt and Mum's younger sister."How're you doing? Esha". Esha was her middle name and her Aunt loved calling that. Valerisa flinched as the sunlight met her while her aunt was opening the curtains. "I arrived this morning and heard all what happened" she said dropping the tray on the bedside cabinet.."Good morning Aunt. I'm feeling okay now". She mumbled. "Just a little throbbing in my temples" "You don't look it, your eyes are swollen". Valerisa avoided her Aunt's intense gaze. "Have you being crying again?" No response."Alright.
