"Hey Jake," the woman spoke softly. Her eyes were puffy and Jake could see that she had been crying. He felt a sword pass through his chest into his heart but he didn't see it bleed.

"Hey Amanda," he responded with confusion. It has been a while since he had set his eyes on her. He honestly thought that she would never come back to him and now there he was, looking at him as if she was the prodigal daughter. Jake wasn't fooled, he knew that something was amiss. He knew that someone had told her something that had triggered her to come to him. He was more than determined to find out what it was.

"Are you just gonna let me stand outside?" Her soft-spoken tone was dropped and the tone that Jake always despised was back. He hated it but wasn't surprised to hear it.

"What a quick change in your voice," Jake said as he walked outside the apartment and closed the door solidly behind him. He noticed how Amanda rolled her eyes and crossed her arms around her chest. "What are you doing here Am

    No sooner had Jake gone into his apartment did he hear a knock on his door. He sighed and ignored it, thinking that it was just Amanda probably coming back to beg. He had made his point perfectly clear and if she couldn't handle that, then it wasn't his fault. He decided to allow her to stay for a while and then when she got tired. She would leave. The trick worked cause after a few knocks, Amanda walked away with a sad expression on her face. She wasn't ready to give up and so decided to call in the big guns. She was ready to go all out just to get what she wanted and what she wanted was Jake back into her life at all costs. As she walked away from the apartment she once called home she couldn't help but think of the different ways she had destroyed her life. She had made her life to be a living hell and the worse part was that she couldn't blame anyone else but herself. The abuse she had received in the hands of Maverick was more than enough to cripple her but then again, she brou

  • Son In-law Revenge   Moving Out

    Michael watched as his friend buried himself in work, he knew the young man was hurting but just trying to cover it up. He didn't say anything about it, he had learnt the hard way to never try to help Jake sort out his feelings. He was a grown man who hated being told what to do especially how to feel. As Michael kept helping him wrap the boxes, he couldn't help but think about Jake's wife. She was so beautiful but also so ugly. Michael wondered if she didn't know about her bad ways. Of course, she did. No one would be that cruel to someone and not realize that they have done something wrong. The woman just didn't want to apologize and for some reason, she believed that Jake would take her back with open arms. If he was Jake, he would be angry as well and he would have continued to shut her off and keep it that way. Her betrayal had cut deep and there was no salvation for someone like that. Jake had no reason to be good to her but he also knew his friend, it wouldn't take long before

    The house was big but it wasn't huge. Still, it comes as a surprise to Michael. He was not expecting such a sophisticated place and area. He was expecting a low place with worn-out walls and terrible ceilings. He was more than surprised when Jake took him to the penthouse. He followed behind the young man quietly as wondered how he hadn't met this friend of his yet. It was a good thing to know that Jake still had some moves up his sleeves and Michael loved that. Two of the movers went into the house with Jake and Michael while the rest waited outside as a way of protecting the goods they carried. What lay in front of Michael when he stepped his foot into the apartment was what he was not expecting. The place smelled of money and elegance. Michael was trying to understand how Jake met this friend of his when he saw the young man stepping out from what was the bathroom. "Sebastian?! What the hell?!" Jake asked with fear as soon as he saw Sebastian coming out of his bathroom. He didn'

    Life couldn't be better as Jake watched his things being moved to a new apartment. Finally, he was getting a fresh start at everything he was becoming a new person with a different energy. This new life would not be corrupted. It would only be filled with the likes of Ivy, not the likes of Amanda. Realizing that he stayed all through the morning without talking to her, he brought out his phone and placed a call to her. She must have been really excited to see Jake's call enter her phone because she picked up immediately, something that Jake wasn't complaining about."Hey Ivy, how are you?" Jake asked as he stood by the entrance to the apartment watching the movers move his things into his penthouse."Jake. I'm alright, how are you?" "I'm perfectly fine. I missed you and so I decided to call.""Well ain't that sweet of you. What did you think of the party last night?" "How about we get together over a cup of coffee and discuss it at length?""Jake..." Jake was familiar with that tone

    As soon as Jake could summon up the courage to open the day, he realized that he should have peeped through the peek hole, cause if he had, he wouldn't be faced with such a gruesome conversation. The Cash were starting to be a thorn in his flesh and he was tired of explaining of always having to pull them out. They stared at him as he opened the door slightly, allowing them to have a sneak peek into his new abode. He tried to read the expression on their faces but could not understand why they looked so happy. Together, they made a power couple and Jake started to doubt that Mr Cash didn't know all the evil that Mrs Cash did behind his back. How could he not when they were at his apartment to perfect another of their devious plan?His eyes moisten but he still could not take his eyes off them completely and neither could Mr Cash. Before Jake knew it, the event had turned into a staring competition and he didn't know if he was winning. For minutes, they stood there in silence staring

    He was the captain and it was a hella good feeling. Jake smiled as he went about his business. Soon, it was time to meet up with Ivy. He threw on a smile outfit because he knew Ivy didn't like high-class dressing and he walked out of his apartment. The place was still partly ready, if it wasn't, he would have invited her over to his house. He couldn't wait to show her how far he had come in life. Though, Ivy wouldn't really understand it because she didn't come from the same place either. Nevertheless, he was ready to teach her his ways. He just hoped that she would pay attention.She was the only reason he was able to look Amanda in the eye and tell her no. He couldn't go back to a toxic relationship with her when the future was so much brighter with Ivy. So he held on tight to Ivy, praying that one day she would realize that they are too compatible to not be together. He couldn't say that he loved her yet, but with time he was sure that he would fall madly in love with her. It would

    The content of the cup was an orange drink and how Jake knew that when Amanda dumped it on, Ivy. It all happened so fast and Jake did not even know where Amanda came out from but Ivy was covered in orange juice and the bewildered look on her face was not a pretty sight."So this is the bitch, huh? She is the reason for you treating me like this?!" Amanda said, boiling with anger. Jake looked from Ivy to Amanda, his shock quickly turned to anger and he wanted to pounce on her. Amanda, on the other hand, didn't stop ranting. And Ivy was still trying to understand what just happened. "Amanda, are you out of your fucking mind?!" Jake yelled at her. They had become the centre of attention and it was the type of attention that Ivy hated. It didn't take long before she pulled out her car keys and walked out of the coffee house without a word. "Ivy?" Jake tried to beg as he followed her. Amanda, who noticed that she was going to lose again, held him by the hand and tried to draw him back bu

    Amanda smiled as she got back into the arms of her lover. Jake was back to being hers and she would do everything to ensure that it stayed at way. She held him tight, afraid that if she loosen her grip she might lose him forever. They stood in each other presence for minutes, not caring about the crowd that passed every so often. It was just the two of them that mattered at the point, exactly how Amanda wanted it. Jake didn't know why he was still there, he could have left but he had to admit to himself that he still had feelings for Amanda. She was the only one who got him feeling fly so easily. So he stayed with her and for a split second, he forgot about Ivy."Babe, do you think you will be able to make it to the party tonight?" Amanda asked while still holding Jake."The party is tonight? Why did your parents make it to be so soon?""It's because they are really sorry and they really want to make amends. Please, babe, it would mean so much to me if you'd come." She looked up at hi

    Chapter SeventeenTen minutes seemed like more than enough time for Jane to arrive at Laura's house.She lived with her mother. The woman had lost her husband two years back and Laura felt like she didn't need to be alone. So she packed out of her one room apartment and moved back in with her mother."Bye guys." Laura shouted out as she closed the door."Bye aunty Laura." In between bites, Cassidy was still able to respond to the greeting."How are you doing over there baby girl?" Jane asked as she looked at her daughter from the driver's window."I'm doing okay mom. This cake is delicious. It's the best I've ever had.""Well, he did say that you were going to enjoy it. I guess he wasn't lying.""How did you meet him again?"Jane decided that it was best if her daughter didn't know everything that had happened."He came to me. Yeah, he came to apologize and he brought the gift.""Well, he is a very nice man then. I think I like him."You and me both Cass, you and me both.Jane eyes fo

    "Damn it!" Emily cursed under her breath. Every time she was beginning to have a quiet moment with Sebastian, something or someone just always had to ruin it. She could see the spark in his eyes and she knew that he was seeing her in another light. The kind of light that Emily wanted her to see him in. And now her phone just had to go and ring, interrupting the moment she was sharing with him. She removed the phone from her handbag and was more annoyed when she saw the caller ID."Yes?" She was afraid that if she had said more words, the man would have sensed her anger and wanted to find a way to relieve her of it. But Williams didn't need to see her before he could sense the mood that she was in. "Em, are you alright?" He had the same caring tone in his voice which Emily hated. She had never seen Williams as a passionate man. To her he was too bland and empty, nothing drove him to the edge. Nothing made him think outside the box, he was a calculative, arranged and organized man. It

    The bar was filled with people. Andy's has always had a full house mostly because he had good music and his staffs were as kind as the day was bright. Emily could spot some foreigners in the bar. It was a normal thing for them to always occupy all the space there. The town of Los Angeles always had people trooping into it because not only was it a tourist site, but it was also a place where opportunities could come through. Anything was possible or at least that is what they believed. They had one had a cowboy come into town with their hippy-dippy style of dressing. Once he was settled in, he opened a salon and it was his favourite place to go. Soon, he had been transformed into an LA man. It was difficult to transform him but he had the kind of spirit that could adapt to anything at any time.Emily walked towards the counter, but Andy was nowhere in sight. The cute little bartender had always had a thing for Emily but just like Williams, Emily had only considered him good as a friend

    The drive back to her company was awfully quiet. It would have been a great time to have company, like that of Sebastian. Looking at the driver's mirror, she could almost see his perfectly symmetrical face and his tattooed arms. He had a dangerous aura around him, and there was nothing that Emily loved more than danger. Emily shook her head. She shouldn't be noticing anything about him. She shouldn't be even thinking about him. She should focus on how weird and awkward it will be when she meets Williams the next time. Deciding to cross that bridge when she gets to it, Emily swerved into the parking lot. There, she saw Sebastian waiting for it.She could hear her heart racing, she could feel her blood running into her ears. She grabbed on tightly to the steering wheel. Did he have to be so attractive? Did he have to make her want him so badly? Realizing that those weren't the things she should be thinking about, she turned off her engine and focused on getting rid of him.To hell with

    It was becoming clear that all the people Sebastian was getting acquitted with were dangerous men and they all knew Ethan. The man that approached them was covered with tattoos and the more Sebastian observed him, the more he noticed the cliche way the man was dressing. He had on nose rings and an earring on his eyebrows."Hello, Denzel," Ethan said as he stood up."I see we are now mates, if not what would give you the courage to address me by my name?" "I don't believe they are any secrets between us."Denzel's couldn't take his eyes off the little brat that had almost gotten him arrested. He had sworn that the next time he sees him, he would be a dead man. But he had come with Chairman's men and anyone who wanted to live knew not to mess with Chairman. The man could do unimaginable things to his victim but still behave like he was doing nothing. "I don't think we do," Denzel said as he offered a smile his way and ushered them to their seats. "So I'm curious to know, how did a ric

    Sebastian had hoped that he would never get to see the building that threatened to end his life whenever he stepped foot into it. Reluctantly, Ethan and Sebastian moved towards the door and one of the men nugged them along."What? So when you are not chatting like little girls, you guys chose to irritate me by walking like snails?" The man said with anger in his voice. As much as Sebastian wanted to reply to him, he decided to save his strength for when he would need to run away from Maverick and his gang and if he couldn't, he would fight his way out. He didn't mind getting shot, anything was better than working full time for him.They didn't pass through the club as they did before. The entrance was a lot narrower and the presence of two guards gave the clear message of the entrance being off limits to regular party freaks. They walked in the dark for what felt like hours but was only five minutes and Sebastian kept praying that they weren't passing through the human body room. Sud

    Sebastian smiled to himself as he pulled up to the parking lot of the company. He was glad for the conversation he had with Ethan earlier. The man was a pain in the ass most of the time but he did help him get the perspective he needed.Sebastian yelled as Ethan hovered over him so early in the morning. He was used to the man not being the morning type but Ethan was wide awake and staring directly into his eyes. "Man, what the hell?!" Sebastian screamed out as he pushed Ethan away from his body. He reeked of alcohol making Sebastian worry about why he did not just pass out already. That was mostly what he did whenever he came back drunk."Don't you have where to go today?" Ethan was talking about him going out in search of a job but Sebastian knew better. There were no jobs available anywhere. "Won't be going anywhere today," he said as he turned over to his side "there are no jobs in this godforsaken town. So I might as well just save myself from the stress of looking.""So what do

    The weather was pleasant but the same couldn't be said for Emily's appearance. She cursed as she highlighted from her car and almost ran into her father's company building. She waited patiently till she heard the ding of the elevator, rushing in she quickly pressed the button that would open up to her office.Immediately the doors of the elevator opened up, she marched into her office floor completely ignoring the greetings of all the staffs that saw her. She walked briskly towards her secretary's desk and slammed her hand into her table."Good afternoon ma'am." The young lady stuttered as she looked into the gleaming eyes of her boss who was not looking happy."Sandra, what meeting did I have today?" "Ummm. Ma, which one are you referring to?"Could she be serious?"Which one am I talking about? The one I'm just coming back from. Which meeting was that?"Sandra looked down from Emily's face and scrambled the papers on her table looking for her boss itinerary for the day."Umm, that

"Ethan, what am I doing here?", "I told you I didn't want to come out tonight", "who do you know that is broke that goes to a club?", I said disturbed"You worry too much my friend. Tonight is all about enjoying some","Work of art, yeah yeah, I know", I interjected, "let's just go inside already","I added striding past him.He grabbed my arm and whispered, "hey, I got a solution for your money problem as well, you'll see", and then walked excitedly into the club"Ethan, Ethan! What solution?","Let's try and have a good time, I'll introduce you to a couple of guys later".He hurried off and began hitting on the first girl he could find.I walked to the bartender and ordered a drink, I needed to take the edge off and not worry so much about my money situation.
