Being in the face of confrontation, Selena knew that she was supposed to do something to stop them from constituting a nuisance but she was unable to speak, not because she didn't want to, but just because she couldn't. It was almost as though there was a zipper on her mouth and all she could do was stare at them."Wait a minute, why the hell are you making noise and almost bringing the roof down? What happened to sending a letter? Do you think that I would take you hooligans seriously? Really? You must be joking!" She replied, staring at them fair and square. There was something that she needed to do to get them out of her mind and heart."Tell me, why the hell are you even doing this trash? Do you think that your noise scares me? It must be that you don't know my husband. I don't want him to show up and teach you a lesson that you'll never forget in your life, so if you would kindly respect yourself and leave now that you still can, it would be the best for you." "See, you can't ev
Selena was left with the option of either running and leaving Eleanor behind or making sure that she got her to safety. Now that word was relative because she didn't know when and how she would be able to fight her way out of the mob that was approaching. There was something about her that made even Eleanor afraid."Don't dare wait for me. Escape now that you've gotten the chance!" She cried out. She would rather take the hit than to allow the General's bride to be involved in such a mess. "No, I can't leave you here. Summon your strength, we can make it out of here." Selena refused. She wasn't just going to allow the innocent lady to rot away here. Even if they didn't touch her, she would certainly be killed for having a very strong presence and she wanted to correct it as soon as possible. " So, get up." The men had already rounded the corner immediately as they waited to see what was happening. Eleanor, with the remaining strength in her rose, rushed towards Selena. It was a ris
Selena's heart leapt for joy when she saw Dominic walk in like the warrior that he was. She just knew that she didn't have to worry anymore. He was here with an entourage of soldiers. 'It's over for you Mezeth.' She said inwardly but just kept on smiling.Mezeth was shocked that Dominic would arrive on such short notice. He had made sure that Dominic went in search of him in his city."Oh, I can see that you're really ready to save the day. How do you think that you can do that though?" He teased him.Dominic had tolerated enough of his bullshit and the only thing on his mind was to teach this man a lesson, make sure that he got what he deserved and returned to Keister with his beloved bride, and finally get that wedding going. "I can see how angry you are but I can tell too that it's not because of me. I mean, how many times have you decided that you wanted to do these things without doing them?" Dominic didn't utter a word, instead he casted a glance at his bleeding soldier who ne
"I'm taking her back to Keister City." Dominic said immediately he saw her move his hands. He wanted her parents to be able to see her and know that she was fine. They had been blowing up his phone and he understood their concerns. She was just a bit unconscious. Getting rid of Mezeth was his primary aim and that had been taken care of and there was something else that he needed to do. "Okay, sir." "I'll be back in two days. Make sure that everything is orderly and we won't have any problems. You get that?" He replied and the soldier nodded in response. "Alright, then. Let's see how this goes. Where is Dame?" He asked and the man walked out of the cockpit."Here I am sir." "Good. I don't want to fret,I hope you're in good condition to fly?" He inquired and Dame nodded. " So let's go. I don't want any issues of the sort. You hear me?" He replied and the man nodded again.Selena was rousing gently and he caressed the side of her head. "Hey, just relax." He spoke softly and the pilo
"Rose, please. You shouldn't be doing this at all. I mean, these people are getting married. If everything had gone according to plan would you have stopped them or forced them to get divorced? You know that your daughter won't accept that." Rose glared at her mother and turned to the culprit who had made her family go through a lot in the space of a few days and months. She would rather pass than have anything to do with him. " You disgust me, Dominic. What plans do you have for my family, throwing us into chaos? Is that what this is about for you?" She challenged him.Dominic only folded his muscular arms and watched her rant. This caused Rose to get more angry and fling hurtful words at him that made even Grandma blush. She wouldn't utter those words even as much as she hated the lad. "You're just being impossible. This man has not offended you in any way. Why don't you take some time off and allow them to find their footing? You wanted Selena to get married, and now that it's ab
"Camara is finally discharged." The doctor stated when he walked into the office the next day and Rose sighed happily. Finally, her daughter could have her life back from the people who decided that they didn't want her alive anymore. "Oh, my goodness. I'm so happy." Selena muttered while Dominic rubbed her shoulders as they watched in silence. A few people might find it hard to feel sympathy but Dominic actually did. He knew that Camara wasn't supposed to bear the brunt of the stupid Silas but the damage had already been done.Camara didn't glare at him as he had expected, instead she was just sobbing. Staying in a coma for the longest time and awakening to the real world could mess with people's minds no matter how strong they paraded themselves to be. It was just tiring. " How many days or years have I been out?" "Close to a month." Camara sighed in relief that it wasn't more than that, what would she have done? It would have been too hectic for her to cope with and she would al
The next week Selena resumed work and she was waiting for what she could do to make sure that everything was at least done properly. She greeted the receptionist who was also elated after finding out that she was the boss's bride. " Good morning, ma'am. I hope you didn't have a stressful leave." "Leave?" She repeated and stared at her in surprise but quickly masked it with aloofness. "Oh, that? I am sure that everyone can testify to a good life after having a great leave." She replied and quickly signed in before walking to her office.There were few chatters when she passed the wide office but she didn't care about them. It must surely revolve around the fact that she was probably promoted above they would have been there since the inception of the place yet it wasn't any of her business."Oh, Miss Selena. I was thinking about you... Oh, how did that sound? Margie joked as she poked her head into the office she was sitting in."Tell me about it." Selena also replied playfully and th
"You didn't tell me you were going to attend." Selena's eyes widened when she saw Dominic saunter in. He knew how to get the people talking. One of the people who was very pissed by his arrival was Silas. He was busy glaring at the couple as they huddled in the corner. it wasn't a hidden fact that he was jealous of the way Dominic was taking care of her as though she was an egg. As if that was not enough too, Diana also stood huddled by a rich man watching the way Dominic paid attention to Selena and the way she was basking in the euphoria. This should have been her. This woman came from nowhere and began to eat the fruits of everything that she had worked for and it annoyed her to her bones. She had a reason to deal with her because it meant that there was something that she was not telling them. Had Selena known that he was this rich and was only acting nice to him to become his wife? Diana wondered.She was very pissed at him because this wasn't what she wanted for herself. Yet,
