His Ascension A cup of tea
Ken tossed from one edge of his bed to the other. He was sweating profusely and swinging his head. He was lying on his back.Again, he was having a nightmare.He could see it clearly in his dream. He could see the way his mother led him to the basement eighteen years ago. He could see how she pressed teddy to his chest and left, promising to return but she never did."Mom!" He screamed and jumped out of the bed.While panting heavily, he settled by the edge of his bed after turning on the lights. It was barely 2 am. Ken wiped the sweat that had teamed up on his forehead with the edge of his palm and wondered why the nightmare he had long forgotten was making its way back to his life.He stood up, staggered to his table, and grabbed a copy of moby Dick. With a frustrated sigh, he dashed to the study. A fact about the nightmares was that he never gets back to sleep after having them.******"Take care, sir. Bye!" Ray screamed at Ken after he dropped off from the vehicle.Ken waved a laz
His Ascension Follow the cab
After driving for about ten minutes, Jane pulled the car to a stop in front of a bungalow-shaped cafeteria.Ken turned to her while she was unwrapping her seatbelt. "This place has been here all along? I never noticed it."She smiled. "You lost your exploration skills the moment you opted for Medicine but you could still combine both yet you don't. It's always work and work."She stepped out of the vehicle and Ken also did the same."Come with me!" She invited him with a bright smile and charged toward the entrance.Ken watched her with his eyes dilating with joy. The way she was happily marching toward the cafe reminded him of the moments they went to hang out in Grizzle bar back in Harvard.Jane turned around and caught Ken transfixed in his spot. She arched a brow. "Did you change your mind?"He swung his head from left to right. "Of course not."He began taking steps toward her. She moved away from the door with her handbag hung around her left arm. On the wall was the name of the
His Ascension Kiss me
After the man in the black hoodie was sure that the coast was clear, he continued moving. Ken stepped out and continued taking slow and cautious steps after him. He followed the man down to the end of the road and watch him take a sharp turn to the right.Ken was hidden behind one of the lemon trees. He knew that if he steps out, he'll be on close range and would be seen. He noticed a bungalow and concluded that it was the man's abodeAfter roving his eyes around the area, the man took off his hoodie while Ken watched from his hidden spot. Before the man could turn around, Ken let out a gasp. He could detect that blonde hair anywhere and then the man turned around."Charlie!" Ken muttered under his breath with his heartbeat quickening."I knew it!" He mumbled and turned around.From the moment he caught the man spying on them, his instincts gave in but he wanted to be sore and now that he had finally seen the man's face, he was certain that it was Charlie who had been trailing them al
His Ascension I want you!
At that moment, nothing made sense to Ken but the woman sitting next to him. She had taken charge of his senses. He wanted her, so badly and now that his lips were locked up into hers, he wished everything will stand still.On her part, Jane was overwhelmed by her emotions. She pulled away from the kiss and just when Ken was scared that she was going to take to her heels, she muttered something under her breath and it gladdened his heart."I miss you!"She looked him straight in the face and all she could see was a reflection of her desires. She could see that he wanted her as much as she wanted him.Ken placed two fingers on her upper lip and brushed them. She let out a slight moan and tightened her grip around him."I miss you more than you can imagine." He professed and brushed down her lower lip, causing her to gasp in pleasure.He then immersed her in a hug and guided his lips to her left ear while he kept stroking her back tenderly. "I want you!" He cried out and quickly pulled
His Ascension Outsmarted!
Jane pressed her left hand on her chest and aimed for the bathroom. She was barely halfway done with her lunch at the cafeteria when Ken walked in. She quickly abandoned her meal and stepped out.She wanted to head to her office but she realized that Ken was right after her so she decided to head to the bathroom instead. She walked into the lady's room and settled by the wash sink."Hey!"She jumped and quickly turned around with trembling hands."Ken? What are you doing here? How did you?" She turned to stare at the door and noticed that it was wide open.She shook her head and palmed her forehead with her left hand. It then dawned on her that Ken was in the lady's inappropriate room.She gasped and ran to the door. She slammed it and rested her back against the door."What are you doing here?" She asked while trying to stabilize her gaze on the floor. "You must leave right now!"When she lifted her head, she saw Ken walking up to her."What are you doing Ken?" She demanded with trem
His Ascension Date night
Jane sighed with her gaze fixed on the large dressing mirror before her. Her black hair was tied into a tight bun."It's not a date Jane!" She muttered under her breath and went for red lipstick. She wouldn't want to feed herself with any ideas and even though her relationship with Ken was on a rosy path currently, she'll rather not dwell on any possibilities."Perfect!" She mumbled and pressed her lips against each other ensuring they have an even spread of the red lipstick.Before leaving the hospital that evening, Ken requested that they have dinner in one of the city's five-star restaurants. He was specific with his request. They will be hanging out to celebrate their victory over Charlie who was now behind bars.Jane strode to her closet and pulled out a black velvet gown. She slipped into it. The dress stretched to the soles of her feet and had a slit by the left. There was a straight opening from her chest that parted her breasts, exposing some part of her bosoms. She grabbed a
His Ascension Nightmare
All through the ride to his apartment, no one spoke. Ken drove Jane to his home amidst the deafening silence. He wheeled the vehicle to the parking lot where he pulled it to a halt."Are you okay?" Jane flung the question at him while he was taking off his seatbelt.He gave a weak smile. "I'm good."He hopped down from the vehicle and strode to his left. He wanted to help Jane get out of the car but before he could get to her corner, she had already stepped out."It's getting colder by the night!" She remarked with trembling lips.Ken smiled and wrapped his arm around her. "Well, winter is upon us."She buried her head in his chest while they traced their way to the entrance. Ken led her to the bedroom and she settled by the edge of his bed. He pulled out a cashmere sweater and wrapped it around her."I'll be back." He said and left for the kitchen.Jane stood up and began to pace. She turned around to stare at the bed with a smile. It brought pleasurable memories. She stroked the cur
His Ascension Betrayal
Jane held Ken by the arm and led him to bed. She sat beside him and placed her head on his chest, listening to the rhythm of his heart."You went through a lot Ken!" She mumbled and look up at him.He wrapped his arms around her and looked into her eyes. "Pouring out my heart to you tonight made me feel better." He said.She held up his stare and placed her hand on the left side of his chest. "Are you sure about it?"He smiled and hugged her tightly. "Trust me, Jane. It was good speaking to you about my past tonight. I've been carrying this burden for years and even though I had therapy sessions with my Master which I must confess helped, I still never felt completely relieved."She sighed and tightened her grip around him. "I pray you heal and I hope you get justice.""Justice? I've searched for that man that came that night all my life but never found him. I believe that one day, I'm going to lay my hands on him and he's going to pay for what he did to my parents." Ken replied."Le
