MelissaI stirred from my sleep and ran my hands through the other side of the bed, hoping to touch a fit bodied man. Feeling an empty bed, I opened my eyes and sat up straight. A note was left by my bedside. I know I've done so many foul things to you but please whatever I say now, I mean it with all my heart. I'm so sorry Melissa, I'll give you some space in case you don't want to see my face yet.“That's not true,” I shoved the comforter away from my body and dashed to the sitting room, looking for Alexander.The past few hours with him, I understood what it meant to be wanted; to be needed, to be desired.“Where's my husband?” I asked Felix. He sat still while the kids played with him. No doubt they felt comfortable around him.“He left a moment ago, said he needs to pick some things from the house,” he said. “Not to worry, he will be back soon.”I decided not to pay any attention to him, I grabbed my phone, dialed it and his phone went straight to voicemail.Going back and forth,
Trigger warning ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ Reader's discretion is adviced.MasterminderThe content of the glass gently caressed my lips in a soothing way. I stared at the 42 inch Samsung TV hung on my wall, looking at the headline currently showing.“Alexander dares compete with me? Does he know how many things I've done and how many people I've sent to their early graves?” I said proudly. I was the leader of the most deadliest club in New York. Pity was far from my name, I do things the way I wanted. And for Alexander, he had erred with a lot of people. It's high time someone taught him a lesson, and I had taken it upon myself to be the one to deal with him.The door gently opened, a guard coming straight for me. He bowed, with his hands behind his back.“Boss, the girls have been caught. They are in the basement waiting for you.”I dismissed him with my hand. “I'll be with you soon.”Using the sofa as a support, I carefully stood up and found my way into the basement. Asides the cult I handled, I w
BreeI tried my best to remain calm, my phone was in my ear as I talked in hushed voices. Sometimes the call went through, sometimes it went straight to voicemail. And when it finally went through, I was beyond pissed and happy. It was a mixed feeling.I found my way back to where everyone was.Felix, Lady Selene and Sir Carlos held each of the kids. Melissa's eyes were swollen and red, she had devoted most of her time to crying and staying quiet. After the slap she had given me, I truly realized she wasn't an easy woman. She would do whatever she wanted at that point; and how she was feeling, I had no idea. It was definitely going to be greater than mine.My ringing tone captured my thoughts back to the present. The caller ID surprised me, while I stayed by myself, I placed 2 by 2 together. It was all making sense.Francis wasn't making sense the night before, he sounded pissed and irritated. And all of a sudden, he came to me in the morning, trying to make me believe he was still on
MelissaIt's been a week since Alexander's accident. The doctor informed us that he slipped into a coma and there was no time frame for when he might come out. Good news travels so slowly but bad news goes faster; the whole town of Carlton had come to know that I was the legitimate child of the Thatchers and also the legal wife of Alexander Pierce. Making my kids the children of royalty and also the children of a billionaire.Unnecessary respect was starting to be accorded to us and it was really pissing me off. I spent the first few days in the hospital beside him, telling him about the happy memories we were starting to make. How he loved me and how much he promised to never leave me and the kids again.The doctors warned us never to cry or be sad in his presence, everyone always came with happy faces and played and joked around with him. But deep down we carry a burden as heavy as a rock.“Take some time off Melissa,” Janet dragged me out of my reverie. “I'm sure the director would
AlexanderI tried reaching out, I tried speaking but nothing was happening. I heard doors opening and closing but none of them could hear me no matter how much I screamed in my head.‘Hello, hello,’ I kept saying in my head but nothing proved abortive.Just when I thought it was all over, a woman stepped in with a bunch of other people. They dropped whatever they held and hummed a beautiful song for me. It was soothing, I wanted to just stand up and appreciate them for their thoughtful gift.But wait, I had no idea what happened to me. Who was I? Why was I in bed? With all the beeping around me, I tried to remember where I was. I summoned all my strength to at least do something. Someone should be able to see me. I raised my right index finger, hoping to get attention.“Doctor Henry, it's Alexander,” I heard a woman shout. Does she know me? Who was she? Why was she here?Immediately I heard her shout, I was filled with joy knowing that what I aimed to achieve was achieved.The doors o
MelissaThe day had barely begun and I could feel my entire body succumb to its tiredness. My eyes felt like they had suddenly become lead and my legs wobbled badly, I desperately needed a good rest.Just like every other night, I had spent the entire last night in the school library again, trying to catch up with the term's work, forgetting that I worked a morning shift at the local eatery."Melissa, we have an order at table 10 and table 23," the voice of the manager dragged me out of my reverie."I'm on it," my voice scratched, failing to go higher than it was. I stretched my limbs and they felt like they had weighed more pounds overnight. I grabbed the tray housing the cups of coffee and walked into the main restaurant."Here you go," my smile came so faintly that you could barely notice it. I dropped the first order at table 10 and walked towards the next table. As I neared table 23, a customer in a hurry bumped into me from behind, causing me to spill the coffee on the very fine
AlexanderImmediately we arrived at the office, I turned towards the receptionist. "Get me Damien, have him come to my office immediately.""Yes sir," she stood up and scurried away to Damien's office.Felix held my bags and walked into my office.He bowed. "Sir Alex, I would like to apologize on behalf of the lady's behavior. If I had stopped her in time, things wouldn't have happened the way it happened.""You don't have to worry Felix, I'll make sure she's punished. You can leave now."He faced the door in time, about to go out."What was her name again? I didn't quite catch it.""Melissa," Felix replied."You can leave," I dismissed him again and repeated the name to myself, smiling. "Melissa. Such a feisty one, I promise to clip those wings of yours."My mind traveled back to what happened in the restaurant, truth be told, she wasn't at fault. I saw it all but the words had left my mouth before I could refrain from saying them.Her response made me repeat the same word. I wanted
Melissa"Never, I'll never marry him. I'd rather die than find myself spending forever with someone like him," I cried for the 100th time. My father wasn't listening to me, he came home that night announcing my marriage to the last person I ever thought of.I had dreamed of fantasy, happily ever after. Irrespective of how old I was, I still had the stature of a 20 year old kid. I always believed that one day my prince charming would come and sweep me off my feet.I couldn't believe I was keeping myself for him, I was going to be married to the bastard I had hassled with in the morning."Father please," I lowered myself on my knees, begging him, because I knew my life depended on it. "Don't do this, my whole life will be halted. I'm in my final year in school, let me finish in grand style, please.""Unfortunately Melissa, there's nothing I can do for you. Your fate has been sealed. Tomorrow you get married to the billionaire, Alexander Pierce," he said deadpan and walked out of the roo
