Rise of the lowly janitor The ploy
*Jake POV*Tanya is nine months pregnant, and I can’t wait to meet my baby. “Jake!” she cries when I wake up and run my hand over her massive tummy. “What?” I ask, amused. “You love this baby more than me. You have not even greeted me good morning,” my hot ball of cuteness sulks and I can’t help but laugh before covering her lips with mine and passionately kissing her.“Good morning VP lady.”She giggles.“I can never love anything or anyone more than you, Gorgeous,” I reassure her, and she melts. Her crazy sister has been teasing her about how the baby is now the family’s favourite and not aware how fragile pregnant women can be. It does not help that she has lost all her beauty pageant body because of the pregnancy. “What are we going to do with Letitia, and George and his friends?” she asks. She is no longer naïve about all of this and I am glad.“My godfathers are working on it.”She raises her eyebrows while I laugh. “Believe me, you don’t want to know,” I tell her. Len and To

*Jake POV*Tanya and I check in at the off the grid ARF quarters, while an undercover agent boards the plane as my imposter. Tom and Len tried their best to convince me to go with their plan, but that was a risk I was not willing to take. A fake me heads to the summit and fake Tanya remains at home is what we settled to.“This place is not too bad,” she says before taking off her shoes and lying on the couch. I get her point. The place looks nothing like what I imagined. It’s more like a very secured five star apartment with everything one can need. I sit at her feet and massage them. I can tell that she is exhausted. It does not help that being married to me has brought her so many enemies, but she never complains. “I doubt it was always like this. I bet my crazy godfathers revamped this place just for you,” I say and she shrugs. Tom and Len are very fond of my wife. While her mother and sister think that I am spoiling her rotten, they think she deserves to be spoiled more. They e
Rise of the lowly janitor Bra Joe
*Jake POV*“Tell me,” Mia urges. She is very impatient. It’s no wonder that fast cars are her career. Tanya waves her left hand at her and laughs when Mia’s eyes widen. “You have been wearing the real ring all along!” she cries. I never really replaced Tanya’s ring with a fake but said that at our wedding for her safety. The fake was the one on the safe all along. She was surprised too when I told her the truth. “Those idiots are going to be killed trying to sell a fake,” Mia adds. “I hope so, but if they don’t, Joe is working on a permanent solution to get rid of them,” tom says casually. “Bra Joe?” I ask and he nods.“My Bra Joe?” I ask again. There is nothing I would not do to meet that man again. Not only did he take me in, but he also gave me a survival skill that has kept me alive. Tanya raises her eyebrows and curls her lips.‘What? I love that man,” I say defensively, right when a tall, dark and masculine figure emerges out of the scullery. “And he loves you
Rise of the lowly janitor Distraught
*Jake POV*It’s been two full months without George’s usual ‘let’s piss off Jake’ stunts. My colleagues think that his grandfather taking liking into me might be the cause, but I can’t help thinking that he is just laying low and ready to pounce when my gut is down. It is during lunchtime and I am a few steps away from my room when two of my colleagues try to block my way.I am immediately suspicious, this is very usual. Their facial expressions tell me this is not a joke either. “What’s going on?”They exchange looks before I hear a familiar moan and my heart sinks. I am screaming in my head. This can’t be happening! “You like that?” George’s proud disgusting voice asks. My heart stops when my fiancée responds. “Yes! George, Oh! Yes!”What the fuck? George, I expect anything from him but not Leticia. She is my woman, the one I have been saving all my wages to spend the rest of my life with. “And that water-boy you call a fiancée?”I can hear the menacing in his voice as he asks
Rise of the lowly janitor Ty
*Jake POV*I have just settled into my corner, ready for a much needed sleep, but a familiar voice shouts from the streets.“Hey! Jake!”I sigh and crawl out. That’s my foster brother, Ty. He is standing outside an exquisite sports car and looks like a million bucks. “Ty.”I am not very excited for this meeting because it always ends the same way. “Come on. Is that how you greet your big bro?”I shake my head and hug him. He is only a year older than me but never lets me forget it. Ty holds on to my shoulders and inspects me from head to toes. “You look like shit, what happened to you?”I explain my ordeal and he is fuming by the time I finish. “Mr Smith, you say?”I shake my head. Ty is very trigger happy, I should have known not to mention any names. “Ty, let it go.”I hope my stern voice does the trick because I can’t afford to be caught up in his criminal activities. “Look at you Jake. No rich asshole does this to my little bro and get away with it,” he says with clenched fis
Rise of the lowly janitor Mr Smith
*Mr Smith POV*I could not believe my eyes when I come face to face with the young man my stupid men were beating. Sharp eyes like Olivia’s but everything else is Dan. It took everything to stop myself from embracing him, but how could I? I have failed him dismally but maybe…Grabbing my phone and locking myself in the sound proof, secured basement, I reach out to the only person I can. “Tom?” A slurred deep voice answers. “You are drunk, so early?”This has unfortunately become my only remaining friend’s state. Well, it’s mine too on many occasions despite my righteous attitude now. “Did you call me to preach?”“I met the boy.” I get to the point and the line goes completely silent. I look at the phone to see if it’s still connected. “Len? Are you there?”“Yeh.”“Did you hear what I said?”“Yeh.”“And?” I ask, getting irritated by his one liner answers. “And nothing. We did enough. Heaven’s knows I can’t even look at myself on the mirror.”“Len, man. You had…”“I had what?” L
Rise of the lowly janitor The craven and women
*Jake POV*A month later, I’m on the water-stand duty and already dreading it. Mia Drew, Tanya’s sister is an amazing multi award winning racer and very dedicated to the sport. She’s always the first on the track and quickly leaves just when the rich boys arrive. Tanya comes by a lot to watch her sister race. She, to George’s irritation, always comes to sit at the water station with me. We get along really well. I have also had the opportunity to meet Mercy Drew, my childhood crush, on several occasions too. Most of the old rich folks are surprisingly pleasant. All in all, this job is not bad. Tanya and Mia have just left when George drives by very slowly very close to the stands. I am still figuring out what he is up to when he shouts. “Hey water-boy, catch!”A container comes right at my face, urine drenching my face and clothes. I close my eyes, the acidity of the urine making my eyes sore. My fists involuntarily clench, anger brewing inside. His laughter fading away tells m
Rise of the lowly janitor Egg mess
*Jake POV*I have lost count of the stupid things George and his groupies do to get on my nerves. The problem with the routine is that they now know when I am on stands or on cleaning duty. I swear it has become their life’s mission to make mine miserable. I start two hours earlier than all my colleagues because most of my time is spent cleaning up the mess the rich boys intentionally make for me to clear. This morning it’s the eggshells that are scattered all over the parking lot. I am already sweating from sweeping the massive area and the sun is starting to get really hot. I am dripping with sweat by the time I get the hose, spraying and clearing the stains. Mr Reed does not engage with us much but he expects this place to be world class and sparkling. Failure to do this leads to a significant cut in our wages. I am folding the cleaning equipment up, ready to start my actual cleaning activities for the day when I notice an expensive leather wallet on the grass, not so far from t

Her being hung up on Jake is exactly what I need her for. The whole country saw her lose it at Jake’s wedding. No one would be surprised if she did something stupid like killing Tanya and even Jake.There are also a multiple defaced photos of Tanya there.Her daft head does not know that I have hidden cameras around the mansion.

*George POV*It’s just over six months since we got out of prison. The boys want revenge as in yesterday. I do too but I know better now. I underestimated my rival and got burned fucken bad. It will take a lifetime for me to recover from what Jake did. I shut the door to my study and click on the untraceable link for our weekly meetings. “George here,” Mathew announces. We are careful not to be seen anywhere together these days. I have not seen anything but I know that Jake is watching us. He would be an idiot not to and if it’s not him then it’s our country’s ghosts, his godfathers. “Hi George. We are all here. Can we start?” Rick asks impatiently but I already know what they want. “We can, but we are not attacking that mother fucker yet,” I say decisively. I have somehow become the voice of reason to all of them now and they are not pleased with me. “Told you guys,” Lance responds but I don’t care. I am all about self preservation these days. I still have granddad’s millions

Yours
*Jake POV*That evening, Tanya walks out of the closet with her transparent gown on. I was planning on just sleeping tonight but one glimpse at her my heart is already racing. “Jake,” she calls me softly and advances to the bed. “Mmh?”She gets on the bed next to me and gives me her cute puppy eyes. “I am sorry about Leticia.”I have forgiven her already but she keeps watching that video, feels guilty and apologies again. I lay on my back with arms behind my head and I give her a mischievous smile.“Show me how much.”She giggles and gets on top of me. “I love you,” she murmurs before she leaves a trail of soft kisses on my neck, chest then down to my abs. I can feel the heat rising inside me and my number hardening. She has that effect on me.I curse under my breath when she pulls down my boxers. Her hand closes around my erection and gentle slides up and down. This feels so damn good. Not as much as when she replaces her hand. She bends down and takes me into her mouth. She suck

Stalemate
*Jake POV*The meeting with the president and Egyptians did not yield much besides providing to us with information of just how valuable my mother’s ring is. They are obviously not impressed when we turn down the offer, but they can’t force us.The following day, the ring and its value is all over the news. I suspect it’s a strategy by the Egyptians to get us to sell. Keeping such a valuable possession is dangerous, I can’t even get an insurance company to insure it. Tanya still refuses for us to sell but she can’t wear it anymore now. Luckily, we have a secured glass exhibition area in our lounge where her miss universe crown is kept. We place it with the crown, the laser beams and our security system should be enough to keep it secured.“Jake, look!” Tanya exclaims, showing me the social media posts.I look at the footage of Leticia throwing the ring at me with mixed feelings. I was really devastated and my whole world had come crushing down that day. She had posted that on her prof

Family
*Jake POV*Two days later, I get home to find Tanya standing in the garden appreciating the colorful flowers before her.She gasps when I wrap my arms around her waist and plant a kiss on her neck.“How’s the nausea?”“Much better. Too expensive, but the medication works. I feel less tired and more alive now,” she confesses with a grin. She was against me buying the expensive medication the doctor recommended for the nausea because of its price. In the end I bought it without her consent.“Good to hear,” I say as I go around and kneeling in front of her to have a word with my baby.“Hey there little one. Did your mom feed you today?”Tanya rolls her eyes and giggles. She sometimes skips meals to avoids being nauseous. That’s the reason I insisted on buying the ridiculously expensive medication.“Can’t trust beauty pageants with this stuff, but daddy got your back, always.”“Tell your daddy not to worry because I am eating like a pig now,” Tanya responds, still rolling her eyes. She th
