Jordan’s smile faded and his eyes grew hard when he saw me leaving Alden and I could not help but to chuckle at the glare he gave immediately after. I bit my lips at him and continued with Alden as he led me upstairs. It was a huge hall and it accommodated a lot of people from all around. The beauty of it all, the wealth that was poured into one party was unbelievable and astonishing, it was unlike I had ever seen. Not like I had seen many. A lot of people were going to and fro, women and men stood at a corner while some went up and down the stairs. Their eyes all turned to me as I walked regally with Alden and it was very uncomfortable. It was like they wanted to tear me apart, to scrutinized me so dearly, so heavily as they searched for a mistake in my movement, my hair and even my clothes. It was daunting and I really wished they would stop. Strangely, I could tell that they knew who I was. They might not have known me, but they knew my husband, our family has been the talk of the
“What do you mean by that?” I instantly got up from where I had been sitting to look at him.“Nothing,” he smiled faintly and stretched his hand towards me. I raised my brows at him and refused to take his hand when he gave me no solid answer.“He has never danced. I don’t think that he can even. I’m just scared that he would make a fool of himself. So, stop dancing if you suspect anything, there are too many reporters here,” he came closer, took my hand and started leading me to the door. His explanation seemed reasonable, but I could not help but feel that it was not. But I didn’t have time to question him about it when I had to go down for a dance.There were less people in the hallway now and those who were still around were also heading downstairs, the same direction that I was heading to. I didn’t need anyone to tell me that the dance was about to start. When we got down the stairs, I found that a lot of space had been created and men in different Tuxedos had been lined up in a
“No, no, no….” I was seeing things. It couldn’t have been him, it would definitely not have been him. He had to leave to see his parents, he wouldn’t be here. I shook my head and turned to the bar. I asked for a glass of drink and gulped it all in the moment I got it, then I asked for another. I shook my head again just to clear up what I had imagined before. I must have truly been seeing things. why would I even think about Nate? He was far away and I was here, with Jordan where he shouldn’t be. This was all Tiana’s fault for reminding me of him. I was supposed to have called or checked on him myself but I had not. Maybe my guilt was getting in the way and it decided to come haunt me on the day I was having so much fun with Jordan. It was terrible. I got another drink from the waiter and this time, I gently took a sip. An alcohol would be better right now but I wanted to be sane enough for Jordan especially since everyone was complaining about my background.I sighed heavily and turn
The cars ran past the streets, buildings, trees giving it the blurry view that got me entranced within the space outside the car. My mind moved from one place to another in a daze and the wheel of my thoughts ran fast and wide, it made it hard for me to keep still. I could feel myself panicking from each thought but I held it in by making sure to breathe when I needed to breath and sigh heavily when I needed to.How could Nate suddenly show up? why did he have to show up now? Its was so unfair that he had to suddenly fall from the sky when I had only just found happiness, found Jordan, found a husband and there was finally a trace of what love could be like. I might be thinking ahead of myself especially since what I and Jordan had might not love, but I was hoping. I shook my head at that thought and tried to think of something else. No, I was indeed going too far. I turned my attention from the mirror to Jordan. The light from the street helped in casting a shadow on his face but I c
A sensual, slow and steady kiss soon enough turned into a rage and hungry one as neither of us could no longer hold on to what we were truly feeling anymore. I wanted Jordan by the minute and I was willing to go all the way out for this. There was no holding back, no panic, no fear that I was being touched by the wrong person, because it was him, it was simply just beautiful, too beautiful.His hands roamed my body frantically like he was searching for something while he suckled on my lower lips hungrier and pushed me to the very edge. I was dripping wet now, wishing to be touched by him and more. I reciprocated his kiss and ran my hand through his hair, breathing heavily too when his hand went down to my thighs. He ran his hand through it and made to touch me between my thighs, I sighed in anticipation when he moved upward and parted my legs for him, giving him access just like the owner of a house. But there was only some degree I could part my legs to especially since the gown was
Dejected, angry, frustrated, I walked back into the house, picked up my purse and dialed Jordan while a lot of thoughts ran through my head. Where could he have gone to? What could be so important that would make him leave that way without telling me? did I do something wrong? Is he alright?When I dialed his number, I waited for it to ring but it told me that the number I dialed could not be reached, my heart fell and tears burned the back of my eyes. It was such a beautiful night, everything was going so fine and as expected, even better. How could he just leave that way? Maybe I did something wrong? Maybe he was angry with me. I shouldn’t have left the car the way I did.I blinked back the tears that threatened to show how stupid I was and tried calling him again. It still did not go through, so I sent a text instead. There was not a single response from him. I became rather nervous and anxious. My heart was beating fiercely inside my heart and my thoughts were running wide with qu
JORDANI could hear voices around me. They were light but their words were heavy and their voices grew higher and higher by the second.“I never wanted you here.” Mom was yelling at someone.“I never wanted to be here,” Nathan’s voice followed. They were at it again, every time and they wouldn’t stop being like cat and dog under one roof.“Then go back to your mother,”“She is your sister as well. Don’t act like you are not a relation because you are,”“I cut all ties with your family. Don’t be so cocky and foolish to think that you can come here to steal from my son and wealth.”“I’m only here because your son wanted me to. Do you think I care about you? Or your stupid money? Jordan is the only reason why am here.”“Oh really? Is he?” Mother entered. For a long time, no one said a thing and I could bet that they were glaring at each other.“My only wish was that I knew who you were at the hospital or why you were there, you would have never been able to take her away from me,”“Your
GENESIS“Two weeks, it’s been two fucking weeks.” Tiana screamed at the top of her voice while she made to arrange my clothes into a box.“Don’t shout so much,” Tiffany snapped at her and they engaged in a fearsome glare immediately after. I stared at them for a while, then I looked away and turned back to staring right into space. It’s been two whole weeks since Jordan magical disappearance from my life and our home. He never called, he never texted and so did his family. I called them, texted them, visited Aiden and Alden in their fashion house since I did not know their house. I never found them there and they also didn’t respond to any thing that concerned me. Mom Leona never showed face, never replied my text, never called back. One whole week, I was going mad with the ignorance and lack of information.One minute, I was so angry, so pissed at him that I want to pack my things and simply leave the house, while the next am wondering if he was actually fine. If he was safe, and hea
