Ariana stood in the kitchen, chopping onions. She had been bothered in the last days after what Dave had been up to and why wouldn’t she? She didn’t want to show it but she was scared of his threats, she didn’t want to lose her friendship with Selena but she knew who Selena was, she would believe Dave easily. This had been one of Selena’s traits that Ariana had hated a lot right from when they were younger. When they were younger, Selena had issues with her face because of an accident and the doctors had told her parents that she had to reach a certain age before she could be operated on and hence, Selena had to walk around with a terrible face which made getting a boyfriend really hard for her. When she eventually got one, she made sure to keep him close to herself and made sure no rumours about him got to her. She was told of his terrible deeds but since he was the only one who’d agreed to date her at that time, she turned a deaf ear to what people had to say about him and

RAYMOND’s POV“What’s wrong? I’m not very hard to please you know” she told me as she came to where I stood and placed her hand on my chest which was now clothed. I ran my fingers through my hair, this had to be the first time I was refuting a woman’s advances towards me. What the heck was wrong with me? This woman was here, desperate for my touch, willing to open her legs for me but I was busy thinking about Ariana.I walked to the dispenser in the room as I poured a glass of water for myself before gulping it in an entire go. I turned to see her staring angrily, she couldn’t believe that someone was refusing her advances and I could tell from how she looked at me that she was crossed. She walked to me as she took the glass from me and placed it back on the table before resting her head on my chest and then slowly rubbing my back. I rolled my eyes, for some reason, all these just didn’t seem to excite me again.“Tell me,” she said as she tiptoed so her lips could be on my ear a

ARIANA’s POV…. I stood, rooted to the spot as I let the water slide from my hair down to my body, my mouth open in shock.“What the heck!” I cursed as I raised my head only to see Dave standing at the railings, a bucket of water in his hands. He’d poured the water on me.He chuckled before walking down to where I was with that annoying smile on his face and I couldn’t help but clench my fists, I was so furious now and I felt like taking a knife to stab him.“I thought you might not have taken a shower since you’ve been so busy so I did you a favor “ he told me.“Did me a favor right?” I asked as I went to the kitchen and took a jug of water before pouring it at him. “I thought that you must have been tired from having lifted that heavy bucket of water so this was to refresh you” I told him angrily and before I knew it, he dragged me by the waist, closer to himself and I gasped.“You’re becoming way too bad for my liking huh. Tell me, who have you started seeing?“ he asked me as I s

I couldn’t believe this, how shameless and evil could that man that called himself Selena’s boyfriend be? How did he even get to know her? Where did Lucy even get to meet him?“It’s a small world isn’t it? The truth about you isn’t yet out to the whole world Ariana but trust me, one day it will” she told me and I clenched my fists.“Whatever you have been told is a lie, it’s a setup and it’s your choice to believe it or not. I won’t be clearing myself before you. I know I haven’t done anything so there’s no need to explain myself “ I told her as I shut the cupboard.“For real, don’t you think your head should be bowed in shame? Your head shouldn’t be raised to me but you still have it raised. Don’t you find it pathetic?” She asked me and I was getting angry.“Don’t make me lose it Lucy. As it is, I’m going through a rough phase right now so please leave, I’ve got things to do “ I told her and she scoffed.“Things like what? Seduce other people’s men?” She asked and I raised my hand

William struggled as Ariana continued to drag him while sparing no effort jn making sure that his head came in close and forceful contact with the gate.“Mum, I swear, Ariana has always had eyes for everything that belonged to me” she recalled kira tell her parents as she continued to drag on Williams.“Come on, spend a night with me, Selena wouldn’t find out” she recalled Dave tell her and when she recalled what Nikki’s friend had told her as well as what William just told her, she couldn’t control herself.“Let me go you moron, let me go” William yelled at her as he tried to get himself free from her grip but for some reason, she was just too strong. It was like the anger and hatred she was feeling was enough to give her strength that she used in punishing him.“You want to spend a night with me right, come, I’ll take you to hell” she yelled as she started dragging his hair and he could see some of his hair start to talk to the ground. Another inmate in the cell had rushed to h
