Rejected as a Commoner, Wanted as an Heir Nine years ago
*Lauren*••Nine Years ago••We all were clad in black, watching as the coffins were laid into the ground carefully. They were able to find a space where my parents can be buried side by side, one of the things that made it all relaxing for me. They'd lay peacefully at rest knowing they aren't far from each other. My baby brother nuzzled against my neck as I endlessly patted his back softly while Aiden wouldn't let go of the hem of my dress. He was only three years old while I was thirteen. The responsibility I felt I needed to fulfill at that time broke me. I've been left alone with two brothers, one whose need I have to cater for under every circumstance...'Let's pray for the dead' The priest announced, causing everyone to close their eyes in concentration. I did also, muttering an Amen to the few word of prayers said. As soon as they were successfully laid to rest, most of the few family members and friends that attended made their way out, departing the cementry ground quickly. N

*Lauren*A slamming head ache welcomed me the instant I gained back my consciousness, accompanied by the strong stench of antiseptic that filled my nose. I tried to move my hands to rub my throbbing eyes. I was unable to due to the stiffness my hands felt. It began to play in my memories. The inciden before the accident.'My brother. I've to find my brother' I said inaudibly.'I think she's awake' I heard an unfamiliar voice pronounce.'Where am I? Why am I finding it difficult to move my body' I questioned, my eyes still squeezed shut. I was having a difficult time in opening them.'This is a hospital, ma'am. Just relax, your husband will be here soon'. My eyebrows knitted... 'Husband?'As if on cue, I heard the door swing open. 'Lauren?'Hearing Christain's voice, the hatred I had for him started to awaken... 'What the hell are you doing around me? I told you to stay away from me' I yelled, struggling to get on my bum. 'Stay still...' he ordered, 'You can't get up now. Not in the

*Lauren*.Two Weeks LaterDarkness was a new normal now. It has become a part of me and I, a part of it. Today makes it exactly two weeks of being temporarily blind which has been a hectic, emotional exhaustive one. Thanks to Dora and Damien who are always here to help out whenever I needed one. They made me feel better to an extent. So good people. I was allowed to talk to my brother on several occasions to be assured he's doing very fine. He can walk all by himself now, gained a little more weight and looks much better. He told me all of that himself. Truth be told, I'm really grateful that Christain helped out in this situation but my ego wouldn't let me appreciate him sincerely. I rolled uneasily on the bed, uncomfortable at my every position. Will I really be able to see after one week and maybe, get justice for myself. Christain had tried to collect information about the man that attacked me in the vehicle, unfortunately for us, I was unable to give a perfect description of h

*Christain*My heart skipped a bit when I saw her lying on the bed helplessly. She had a blank stare, her facial features showed how much oblivious she is of her surroundings. I stealthily walked further into the room then placed the plates of pancakes on the bed side table. She made a twitch in reaction to the sound.'Damien? Is that you?' she asked, her hands carefully searching around to feel. She furrowed her brows when I said nothing.'Dora?' she tried again.No response.She sat up, leaned her back on the bed frame. 'Are you mad at me for not eating the pancakes?' she sounded sincerely sorry. 'I wanted to but I can't seem to find the appetite. I'm sorry for disappointing you' she added.Her aura, movements, atmosphere was enough for me to sense how distressed she is at her current situation. I denied myself the press to feel sorry for her. She wouldn't want that, especially from me..Silence manifested in the room. The only thing heard was the sound of each other's breathing. I

*Christain*After fighting relentlessly, she gave up. I really wasn't willing to let her go. Not now. I placed her on her feet, pulled up her hair into a ponytail.'You'll have to sit in the bath tub'She rolled her eye balls. 'I told you before, I'm not ready to do this. I want to be left alone' I sighed audibly. 'I almost forgot how stubborn you are'.I swept her off her feet, positioned her well into the tub. I pulled off my shirt, hung it on the small hanger on the bathroom wall. I proceeded to ask if she's in for pulling her dress also to prevent it from getting wet. As expected she declined. I turned on the water heater and let the tap run. Certain enough her hair was wet enough, I grabbed the shampoo, poured quite an amount on my palm then rubbed it into her hair. My mind drifted, memories made way into my head as I continued the process. I always watched my mum do this to her hair when I was still a toddler. She would let me hold the shampoo and allow me pour the quantity she

*Christian*I returned the kiss energetically while I savored every bit of her full, soft lips on mine. My right hand held down my throbbing genitals while my left hand subsequently, made its way to my left boob nipple, caressing it. She bit my lips to hold back the moan that fought to escape her lips. I groaned at how pleasurable it felt, also adding my index finger to pinch the tip of her nipples. She arched her back. I stopped kissing her, watched her face as I continued playing my fingers around her pink, hard nips. Her eyes were closer, her head thrown back, giving me another access to her perfect neckline. I worked again, trailing little kisses on it. This excitement.. it's one I haven't felt in such a long time. Her fingers grabbed a fistful of my hair, encouraging me to do more to her body. Gosh.. this feels so good.Passionately, I kissed my way all the way down to her boobs, used my tongue to play around them till I enclosed my mouth on her right nips.'oh my god... christi

**Lauren**I decided to go to the dining room for my meal later that evening with Damien's help.'Good gracious, Laura. You finally decided to eat dinner together tonight' she commented.'Well, I think that's a good idea except for the fact that Christain is gone. He would have loved to see her here' Damien replied.I gently settled on my seat, somewhat disappointed Christain is absent. I had expected him to be here, I quickly brushed the unhealthy feeling aside.'What are we having for dinner, tonight?' I asked.'Some Basmati rice, Cole slaw and chicken wings.' she responded. The aroma hit my nose right after. It was pleasant enough.'How is it possible you know how to cook this well? If you don't mind, I'll like to take some lessons from you''I definitely do not mind, Lauren. Once you're ready. I'll always be here' she grinned, metals also clanking as the dropped on my plate.'Thank you...'Everyone finished the meal at the same time. Dora was left to do the dishes while Damien bro

****Christain****Do you realize the gravity of the action you're about to take, Christain' Dora queried for the sixth time in two minutes.'I know, Dora. It's going to be very temporary because Right now, I do not have an alternative.''Send your men there.''I already tried that. She chased them away, threatening to call the cops if they don't leave her space. Audrey is hell bent on seeing the end of me and because he can't get to me, directly. He's trying to use the people I care about to get to me. This is the only safe place I know. Where I'm assured they'd get the appropriate protection. I'm also sending Aiden here once he's back on his feet' I pronounced.'Sending Aiden here isn't a bad idea.. it'll make Lauren stick her ass to this place but Tiffany... That girl has a huge crush on you, Christain, Laura is someone you've had something with. Don't you think hatred will ensue between the two?'.I ran my hands through my hair, rethinking my decision again.... 'I can't do anything

There are no real friendships, no true relationships, and even if the feelings somehow turn genuine, they're immediately muddled by the talks of business and incessant urges to tie the knot in marriage if the family is a favourable one. Only if the family is a favourable one. If it isn't then they do everything to ruin those feelings and create discord between the ones involved. It was a messy life filled with pretense, politics and numbers. It made me sick to the bones. My father has apparently disowned me because I have yet again disappointed him after he fixed a wedding for me without my knowledge. I found out at the last second and fled, causing a effect I didn't quite expect and I didn't regret either. Apparently, I underestimated the publicity of this particular event and it spread pretty quickly that the daughter of one of the most influential businessmen in the country ran away from her wedding. People were quick to point fingers at my father, accusing him of forcing his
A Mail
Raising a kid isn't exactly easy, you know," she said. "We're not suffering yet, but we're struggling. I would very much like to walk away from her, give you the middle finger and pray you die in an accident on your way back, but I can't." I flinched as she said those words. I forgot that she was also quite emotionally violent when she wants to be. "Why not?" She chuckled at my question. "Weird. Normally, one would be happy when they realize that they can't be cursed to death." I shrugged. "I can't say that I don't deserve it. Sometimes I wish for the same thing too." She gave a surprised look before continuing. "We need help, and even though you are a heartless, devilish, godforsaken, rotten, disgusting piece of shit, you have the ability to help us. You are rich and we aren't. Raising my daughter has been the greatest joy of my life even with our current situation, so raising her in a comfortable environment where she would be happy promises to bring even better joy. Despite t
A Humble request
The aroma of sizzling seafood pleasantly assaulted my nostrils as I looked around in search of the blonde beauty I came here for. I found her at the far corner of the restaurant sitting by a window wall and staring directly at me. I tensed up for a few seconds at the intensity of her stare but eventually relaxed as I walked towards her table. Even if I'm apologetic, I still have a reputation to uphold. I'm not gonna appear weak in front of her. "Hi, Donna," I flashed my best smile at her as I sat down on the seat opposite hers. "Hi," she said, her melodious voice filtering into my ears like a song. "It's...uh...nice to see you again," I said awkwardly. "I can't say the same, sorry," she shrugged. "I'd rather be with my child right now, or working." "Speaking of your child," I looked around her. "Where is.....your child?" "You don't know the gender, do you?" she asked and I shamefully looked away. I couldn't bring myself to answer that. "Well, she's okay, and happy where she is."
Meeting Donna
AUDREY HEPBURN I calmly exited my room once I was done with my exaggerated preparations to meet Donna. The maids gave me an apprehensive look as I made my way down the stairs before bowing respectfully as they hurried past me to do their jobs. "Good morning, sir," they said before heading in multiple directions and focusing on their chores. Even then, I could feel the tension in the air caused by my presence. "Everyone's acting like I'm the first person to attempt a murder on planet earth," I thought as I rolled my eyes. "There's a woman literally being called the worst human in the country and they just wouldn't ignore my little transgression." "Good morning, Audrey my boy," a calm sonorously thin voice greeted from behind me and placed a small frail hand on my back. "You look good today." I turned around with a sigh of relief as the old but beautiful nanny Helen graced me with her beautiful smile. She's been my nanny ever since I can remember and devoted all of her life to raisi
Free but not free
AUDREY HEPBURN The alarm clock blared in my ear causing me to slam it quiet with a groan. Rolling over on my bed, I let out a sigh. "I don't want to leave my room today." Just like every other day, I don't want to have to leave this room. I don't deserve to. My world has been turned upside down since that incident with Christian and sincerely, it's all my fault. I can't even blame it on anyone else. At the time, it seemed like the best course of action but now that I think about it, attempting to kill your step brother just because of a misunderstanding is quite extreme and malicious. Especially if it turns out that the woman you believed to be your mother was a lying bitch and you were infact biological brothers with the same step brother you tried to kill. That just brings it to a whole other level of terror. That was exactly what I did and now I feel like shit. For the most part of my life, I've always seen Christian as my step brother. I've always envied him, hated that he

The search
He was mocking me," I retorted. "Who in their right mind, would risk their reputation and business influence over a murderer's nobody daughter. For all I know, he might just be thinking of using me for some publicity stunt, and the last thing I need right now is more publicity." She sighed again. "From my standpoint, it seemed like he was genuinely trying to help. You were the one being difficult." I swallowed hard, the truth of her words hitting me but my obstinacy wouldn't let me succumb. 'I was trying to protect myself.' 'You've been so hard on yourself lately, Tiffany. Please, relax. Open up to someone who seems to understand more. He said nothing wrong' earlier, You turned his words against him and made it into something offensive." "Didn't you hear him yelling at me?" She let out yet another sigh. "It's hard to not be frustrated when the person you're trying to help isn't letting you help." "I don't need his help," I hissed. "I don't want anything to do with him." She let
Tiffany's adamancy
I placed my hand in my pocket and slowly brought out my business card, then proceeded to carefully lay it on the table before backing away. "Call me when you've calmed down," I said as I headed out. "I'm sorry for the things I said." "Yeah, get out," she hissed. "And make sure to close the door behind you." With a heavy heart and a little anger at her reluctance to listen to or believe me, I closed the door behind, letting out a sigh before making my way to the car. My phone rang as I opened my car door and the caller ID was Courtney's, making me think twice about answering. I really am not in the mood for her requests and taunts. "What?" I asked as I reluctantly answered the call. "I assume it didn't go well?" "It's none of your business," I retorted. "What do you want, Courtney? I'm busy." "Well, first of all, stop using that tone with me," she warned. "Second, I think we can still find ways to help clear her name." "Nevermind that," I sighed as I got into the car. "She doe
You pity me?
"Would it kill you to say thank you?" she rolled her eyes as she revved her car engine. "You know what, never mind. Thank me by funding my newest project. Surely that's easier for you than saying the words, right?" I ignored her as I adjusted my clothes and walked away from her car. I crossed the road swiftly and headed for the house with my head down, hoping that she doesn't recognise me before I approach her door. I knocked on the door, praying again that the door opens before she realizes that I'm the one. It seems like luck's on my side as she opened the door while looking behind her. "Delivery?" she asked, her eyes still focused on something behind her. "Hi, Tiff." She froze at the sound of my voice. She remained frozen for a few minutes, as if trying to convince herself that she hadn't just heard my voice. "I know you heard me," I added as the silence stretched longer. She slowly turned her head to look at me and immediately gasped. "Oh, hell no." She tried to close th
