The Devil in sheeps clothing“Thomas take. I want all these items paid for this minute. Take a look at my skin; my products are all exhausted.” Trina tossed the phone to her boyfriend.Thomas took a long and weak look at the screen she had flashed in his face angrily, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets. He immediately went one heartbeat away from passing out.“But I only just got all these items for you last month, and just now you need another set for only your skin, Trina." He spoke coldly with a shivering voice, and he took a long, frustrating look at the figures dancing in front of him and then looked at her again to see if there was any trace of a joke on her face. He arched his brows, and his forehead wrinkled with massive creases.“You are serious?” he asked casually.“Of course I am dead serious, Thom. Why do you think I came to meet you here? Is it some sort of decoration? Jeez!” She rolled her eyes at him.“Pay for the damn items so I can get the hell out of here.

There’s an emergency.George smiled wryly. His bodyguards pulled Thomas by his hair and made him fall face flat to the ground, then George moved closer and stood his heavy boots on Thomas’ head. Thomas’ mouth gushed out more blood, and his face had bruises from the boots slammed against it.‘You are beneath me, and that is exactly where you belong." George spoke as he rumpled his boots on Thomas' face, causing it to swell alongside his lip. Thomas gritted his teeth in agony, his eyes bloodshot red, almost bulging out of their sockets.George wiped the tiny stain of blood off his nose. “I shall teach you a lesson." He said that and pulled out a dagger from his pants.The moment Thomas saw the sharp dagger coming towards his chest, his eyes turned red like a burning fire, and his veins popped and turned green like a demigod. He has always noticed this part of him whenever he is under attack. He focused his gaze on the knife, and with one blink, he threw it out of George's grip. The knif

A Total strangerThe following morning, Maven jumped off the bed the moment she opened her eyes and found a strange man sleeping on her bed.“Who the hell are you?” she asked him as panic engrossed her entire body. She hit him countless times until he got up and screamed too.‘Who are you?” she asked again.“I’m Thomas”. He answered her calmly, wiping the remaining sleep from his eyes."Thomas, or whatever you call yourself, how did you get on my bed?” She asked, and then she looked around and realized she was in a different room from hers.“Wait, how did I get here?’ She sulked and panicked.“You were drunk, so I brought you here, Maven. I didn’t know your home, and you didn’t tell me, so I thought to bring you here’. He answered her politely. “Why am I naked? Where are my clothes?”. She asked the questions all at once.“Calm down. You had too much to drink last night, so you threw up on your clothes. They should be dried now." He answered her, and she suddenly felt something cold b

A New Identity “I am not your son." Thomas scowled the words at the old man’. But he got a smile in return.“You are Thomas Al Thani, my grandchild, born to me by my only son, Duncan. Bless his soul. It’s so good to see you,” the old man said with a broader smile on his face, which made Thomas even more angry and confused.“What are you talking about?” Thomas asked, and he began to sweat profusely, ready to fight anyone he could at the moment. He didn’t trust the old man, but if this was true, then they had to prove it to him in some way because there was no way he was going to leave his grandma in such a critical condition to leave with this old man who claims to be his grandfather.“Lucas”. The old man called, and then a young boy of about nineteen years showed up with a brown envelope in his hand. The boy had the same looks as Thomas, and that even made him want to pour out the questions in his head. The old man took the envelope and opened it, and after studying it for a while, h

A Plea to GrandmaMaven’s legs were shaking vehemently as she waited for Thomas to arrive. She had already told Grandma that she was bringing her husband home, and when she asked if it was Sebastian Garcia as they had planned, Maven dodged the question. She peered at her grandma through the corner of her eyes as she waited for Thomas's call. In a few minutes, her phone went buzzing heavily. She moved away from her grandmother a bit and swiped the answer button.“Hello, okay. Give me a moment." Maven spoke in a hushed tone into the phone.“Is he here already?” Grandma asked, but because the blinds were down, she didn’t see the car that had pulled up in the front yard. Maven rushed out only to see Thomas dressed in a faded grey suit and almost worn-out pants. The soles of his shoes looked like they were taking a long walk to freedom, yet the owner has refused to let them go free.“What in the heck name are you dressed like a clown for?” Maven asked, holding her head with her hand and si

The Scoundrel A wicked smile crossed David’s face as he heard the question from Maven."Well, the condition is very simple. I want him to wear a wedding dress on the day of your wedding, and you would wear his suit because obviously you’re going to be the man in this stupid marriage you are about to enter, and I shall give you this check of one hundred and fifty million naira." He said he was wiggling the tail of the check he was holding in his hand.“How can I wear a wedding dress?” Thomas asked in disbelief.David squints his eyes. “Are you going to take the offer or not?”.“We will take it." Maven rushed to answer; she nudged Thomas' arm when he tried to protest."Good, now go on. See you at 2 p.m.“2 pm.?" Maven asked.“Yes, 2pm. I would love to see him in that wedding dress after your so-called wedding at the registry." David said it mockingly and rolled his eyes. He smiled, his eyes bulging like those of an owl, and got into this car.“Why are they so mean to you?” Thomas aske

Grandma is no more.“What? Maven, I don’t know what he is talking about.“You stole my car." The old man said,.“Come on, boy, get into the car; do not let us use force on you." One of the officers said that and pulled him by the wedding dress.“Is there a clown party going on somewhere?” His large eyes could tell how curious he was.“We just got married. This is my husband." Maven spoke dryly. They were married for barely two hours, and the man she had chosen to be her husband was already causing her so much pain and trouble. The officers dragged Thomas into their van and drove off, leaving her by the roadside. Now she has to walk home all by herself.Meanwhile,Maven was walking back to Grandma’s house so she could get help to bail Thomas out of the police cell. Her shoes were beginning to inconvenience her, so she took off one leg, leaping with one of the heels on. “Damn bastard!!!” She cursed and pulled the second heel off with all the aggression in her body. David had made her d

HOME AT LAST The moment they finished the duo got up and began to walk from the VIP lounge section to the main restaurant. Suddenly Thomas paused as a sense of danger hit him. His eyes shot a glowing green light and when Maven saw it she became very terrified. “What is wrong with you Thomas?Why are your eyes glowing?”she began to panic.From all she could see, Thomas looked like a demigod. “Is everything alright? The moment she shook him violently he came back to his original self. The green glow in his eyes died down immediately. “I think someone needs my help around here”. He said unbuttoning his suit as he began to walk faster. He increased his pace so much that Maven had to run along with him. “What do you mean someone needs your help?” she asked him but he gave her deaf ears and continued without stopping to say a single word. She called his name and ran after him till they got to the hall. “Call the ambulance”. Maven heard loud voices screaming while others tried to gi

A DATE The moment Maven got home her mom had done the decorations and a cake was placed on the table with candles. ‘What’s going on here? Maven asked as she walked into the living room. Lady Victoria had a smile on her face. “Happy birthday my child”. Lady Victoria said, handing the glass of wine to Maven. ‘Mom. You did all of this for me? Awn! Thank you so much”. Maven said smiling, she took the glass from her mom and sipped from the wine. “This is good.” She then cleared her throat and clasped her hands together. “Look what we have here”.She exclaimed and rushed off to sit close to the cake. I have a wish and I want to make it. She closed her eyes and took in a deep breath for a second before blowing off the candle sticks. Lady Victoria and Abigail clapped their hands happily. “Happy birthday Ms.” Abigail said to her and handed her a small box. “You got me a gift too?’ Maven asked with her eyes watering. “Come here” she grabbed the lady and hugged her tightly.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAVEN "What agreement are you talking about mom?"Maven asked her mother. “You know about it already and Grandma here knows too. It’s long overdue and I need to get my life together. A life outside of the Taylor’s roof”. Lady Victoria was determined to get her life back at least for the rest of her days. Having a companion and someone to share her burden with. “Grandma, what do you have to say to this proposal?’ Maven asked, looking at her grandma with knowing eyes. “Mom, what exactly are they talking about? What deal do you have with Victoria? Do you have any idea Derrick?’ Patrick turned to his brother and asked him. Derrick shook his head. “I have no damn idea anything like this ever took place. “Whoa! Mom, that's pure wickedness. I thought all these while she stayed back with us because she so loved her husband and wanted to keep the legacy going. I never knew you had some contract running right under our noses” Patrick said the words without filtrating an

WE ARE SORRY Since the incident Maven has just been minding her business until Grandma’ request for dinner came through. She had always known who grandma was when it came to having dinner or lunch or even breakfast at her place. With all that has gone on she just doesn’t want to get entangled with grandma and her boys, just focusing on her job and if need be quit if another chaos comes. All that mattered to her right now was her peace of mind and sanity. Maven walked down to meet her mother in the living room. “Mom, did Grandma Clara call you?’ She asked her mother if she had her eyes glued on the TV for her favorite show. The lady shook her head repeatedly without taking her eyes off the screen. “Well, I guess we would be having dinner at grandmas’ I suggest you go get dressed.” She informed her mother. Lady Victoria looked up at Maven with a frown on her face. “I am not going to Clara’s house for no dinner” she said rudely, grabbing the remote control on the table. “Why?Sh

SENTENCED It’s been three months since Sebastian has been in and out of court. His Lawyer Bryan knows well that Sebastian would never win the case against the government and the Al Thani’s. The biggest name in the society. He had his head bowed in the cubicle when his lawyer made the last statement. The presiding judge Albert Wilmore sat on his seat with the wig hanging stylishly on his head. An old man from the North. He is presumed to be the best and sincere judge in the entire city. “Get me out of here” he whispered to his lawyer in a very soft tone. “I am trying my best. The judge is a strict one but I will see what I can do. “What do you even mean by that? I don’t need you to try, I need you to get me out. What’s there to lie and convince the court that I didn’t do it? You can’t even lie. Shame on you”. He said and just then the judge hit the gavel to maintain order. The break was over. The judge cleared his throat. “After hearing from both parties, this honorable court

LET THEM GO The moment she saw the news she knew she had to do something to save her son. She had gone to the station to plead and try to bride David but the officers wouldn’t let her do that despite the fact that they know her too well. “I need my son out of here. No one is saying anything”, she began to cry. Just then Thomas drove in. She threw her bag on the floor and rushed to meet him. “I asked you to get your lawyers ready. David is appearing in court in a few days and there is nothing anyone will do about it. I will not let him treat my wife like that all because of envy”. Thomas was still pissed at what David did. But before he could say one more word, the old woman fell on her knees and began to plead. Everyone came out and began to look in surprise that the all mighty Lady Clara Taylor could go on her knees begging a small boy like Thomas all because she wants her son to come out of prison. At this point Thomas remembered his grandma and how she had gone to her k

CROWNED The morning after the whole incident Thomas’s assistant called in. Thomas was still in bed when his phone began to ring. “It’s too early for all the calls to start coming in”. He murmured as she reached out for the phone. Seeing Greg’s name made his heart churn a little bit. “Greg, what do we have this morning?’ he asked in a greasy voice. “Sir, you have a meeting with the Lesotho group at 9am”. His phone was calm and patient. “I will try not to be late. Put everything in other”. “Yes boss! Greg answered. They spoke on the phone for a while listing Thomas’ meetings and activities for the day after which they ended the call. Thomas got out of bed grudgingly. After the whole drama for the week he doesn’t see himself getting into any meeting or sit but he had to do it for the sake of the company. The company has to go one way or the other. Just as he got the tip of his bed a knock came on his door. He turned his head to look over. He knows his grandpa or Lucas, his co

MAVEN IS DISCHARGED Lady Victoria has never been this rude to grandma but since Grandma has decided to bite the finger that feeds her then she would have to face the dance and the music she had set for herself. Thomas left the prison that instance and he headed straight to the hospital to meet Maven. On his way he had asked Grace Maven’s assistant to watch over her while they await her discharge time. He hurried and drove the car to the hospital and when he arrived at the front gate the men he kept to safeguard the yard nodded at him. They were dressed in black suits and black face Masks different from the security men who work for the hospital. He raised up using the elevator to the fourth floor where Maven was. He waved at the nurse rashly and wafted past her like spoke ready to consume a whole bush. This was the moment he wished he could kill his enemies with his powers but that would not be very necessary at this point. He is not big enough to face David and Sebastian. Rath
