I knew I was just a step away from the death. If Jacob knew o was there he would just put a bullet through my skull or worse inflict pain and watch bleed to death.
I wasn't ready for any of that. I wanted to be alive and watch her sad face.I still couldn't understand the kind of force that was pushing me to her room every day. My budding music career was promising, my star was shining bright. Ever since I put a bullet in Monique's head everything was flowing.Not a single day had I had felt remorseful for what I did to her. I hoped Jocob would give me more assignments.That evening when I jumped out of the window into the freezing cold of the evening falling ice. I had my heart in my hands. Some where from the other balcony I saw him staring at me as I struggled to make my way down the stairs of Moreno's building.My hands were sweaty and I almost slipped and dropped from the window from the forth floor of the storey building. I could feel his eyes school me from the other end.His dark goggles made my heart race in my chest. I trembled with fear as I tried to disguise myself as one of the joggers but he still stared at me like an eagle scanning it's prey before launching a strike.I mounted the stairs towards where he was. I was as good as dead. He dug his thick fingers into the side of the pocket and from a distance I knew my untimely appointment with God was going to be fixed.Jacob... The killer. As I inched closer I heaved a sigh of relief. He wasn't the one.Victor ... The newcomer, who got signed the other day. He almost scared me to death. He resembled Jacob in almost everything he did."What were you doing over their, nigger?" he spoke in a deep Jamaican aceent as he blew the smoke into the air.I looked around to scan if anyone was eavesdropping on us. I was still scared of being busted by Jacob."Who? Me? What are talking about? Are you hallucinating or something?" I retorted harshly satred in his crimson red eyes."Ooh... Okay nigger. You... ""Look here man, just considerate on your blunt. Forget about my f**king business, right ?" I reprimanded him. I faked confidence, deep down I was nervous and scared. He didn't see the fright in my eyes, I thought.I lazily threw myself in bed and closed my eyes. My mind was blank for a moment. My music project... Wow! I was in the final stages of recording the song I had specifically written for her.The lyrics were deep and metaphorical. Not even Jacob could join the dots of what I was really talking about.She was always sad though I loved her that way. Her sad face was fun to stare at. Her eyes through her sad silk and bleeding soul. I had never seen her smile before not even once.I thought of plan to get her out that haunted room. They were definitely going to kill her soon if I didn't hurry up. I had the keys to her destiny, I thought.I couldn't fall asleep even though I was done in. I kept turning in bed and staring at the fan hovering above me in the ceiling.I peered through the window, the street lights marvelously illumonated the streets of Los Angeles. I plodded to the balcony, the point where I had pulled the trigger a few days ago. Her window was open, just the way I left it.I was walking back to my room when something triggered me to check on her again. The same force that always pushed me to send her everyday.I hastily got dressed in black and decided to sneak to her window using the same window I had used earlier. It was risky... If someone spotted me I would be dead.I slowly pushed the curtains aside and peeped through. The room was pitch dark... I couldn't make out an inch from where I was.I stealthily sneaked in the room and got accustomed to the darkness. Her bed was empty or I thought so. I stood there confused and perplexed again. Where could she be? Was she dead?I was about to make a move when a move when a feint cough got my attention. I panicked ... Confused on where the cough had come from.She coughed again and reassured me of life in the room... In the prison. I smiled in the darkness as I took a step closer to her bed.I was not sure if she knew there was someone in the room. She turned in bed and rubbed her eyes before sitting up in bed."Who are you?" A weak frightened sharp voice escaped from her lips. I kept quiet, smiled and took a step towards the bed. I was enjoying the game."Tell me who you are before I shout!" She retorted in fear as she squeezed her body in the corner of the bed. She was literally freezing in fear and enjoyed it.I cleared my voice and she heaved a sigh of relief."Why . you doing this to me! Why are you scaring me to death? Why?" She cried. The cool breeze blew the curtain and the moonlight penetrated into the room for a moment. I could see tears in her eyes... Her sad face made my heart blossom in pride."Am here for you dear. Don't worry..,""What the hell do you want from me right now?" She whispered as she sobbed silently. I stretched my hand and touched her forehead... She was sweating.The moment I enjoyed the most was seeing her emotional."Am here for you dear. Am here to save you from the beasts," I assured her. My hoarse voice was a bit loud but not enough to get out beyond the concrete wall."I have got a plan for us..."She raised her head and stared in my eyes before she politely interrupted me."They want me to marry Clemont Hill by force. That beast in human skin," she sobbed bitterly.Clemont Hill... My heart skipped a beat. I could feel my freeze in the veins as I swallowed the lump in my throat. That name was enough to make someone faint.Clemont Hill was the human version of the devil. I had never seen in person and I never wished to meet him not even in a friendly meeting."Tell me you are not joking!" I insisted,a bit tensed.She just cried again for minutes before she replied."Am dead serious, the wedding is going to be in a month time. Am dead," the voice of desperation, fear and sunken hope all in one.I heard the echo of footsteps from a distance in the corridor. At first I thought the person was walking away but I was wrong. The steps got closer and closer. She held me tightly as she panted and cried.I was engrossed in the love making session. It was the first time I was making out with a guy I new little about. Rotimi was perfect... His romancing skills were dope.I felt the cold breeze kiss my sensitive skin and it just made me feel better. He was romantically choking me and I coughed. That's when I woke up to the realization and the irritating truth that it was just a mere dream.I was in the same place where the 'beasts' had left a few hours ago. Not that cossy and comfortable bed in the fantasy world.For a moment I had felt like a queen in her own kingdom only to be ushered back to reality as if I had boarded the wrong automotive. I was literally shaking as the hairs on my skin stood arect. I froze with the bedsheets. I wanted to scream but a pert of my mind advised me against the decision. They would think I was just faking it and I would instead be punished for disrupting then.I saw a dark figure or I thought my eyes were just playing tricks on me again. No it was real.
Who was that? Her firm nipples pressed against my chest in fear till I could hear her palpating heartbeats. The cold sweat trickled down my forehead though I had favorite hoodie on.I had heard of stories of haunted houses. The way they sounded scary and weird I could better die than be in one. Her wringing hands grabbed me till I could feel some pain. It was as if she was trying to force her way through me. My eyes remained transgixed on the hard mahogany door even as the footsteps dissappeared away into the corridor. I feigned confidence and faked affectionate smiles to please her.Behind the ribcage my own heart was threating to escape. I steeled myself and remained rooted on the floor. My wild thoughts, a few heartbeats away, got me lost in my small world. Jacob... That no nonesense guy. Then demigod of all, the one Clemont Hill. The same guy I was about to mess with his property.I felt like I was a corpse already.I was risking with my life. The end I olcould only hope it wo
My lips parted in a silent surprise as my eyes gawked in disbelief. My mind did a quick flash back to the erotic vidoes Monique used to watch in private. Somehow my heart raced and I slightly panicked as my fingers held his big cock. I struggled to camflouage the shock with the fake confidence. I was just an innocent.... I used to be an innocent virgin before.But I was fond of erotic novels and in my small mind I had the perfect the scenes... The fantasies of the things I admired till I made the superb Rotimi.Wait!I even blamed myself for having underated him before. I was that super shy girl in public but with the dirtiest mind ever. If those who thought I was super cool knew what was running in my head they would just curse themselves over and over.For a moment I had forgotten that I was a captive. That my fate was twisted to favor the brother to the devil, Clemont Hill.If my whole life was a dreamland then it would have been the most perfect. "Just ensure you tell Moreno to
My life had turned into some sort of series of episodes of the most epic horror movie. A day wouldn't go by if without something triggering my adrenaline. Not a day without almost developing a heart attack.Will still had just left in anger again after smashing the socket as if it owed him some peace of mind. Even prisoners in maximum prisons were at more at peace than me. May be these were the very last days of my life. Every day I had that peculiar feeling that my grave... My new home wasn't that far. I was closer and closer to the exit. 'Let it just kill me, whatever it is am tired of this fucking life,' I said in suffocated breath as I bit my lower lip in pain. I lay still in the bedsheets, afraid to even raise my head or breath and waited for trouble.The next thing was the dark figure in the window, and my mind flash backed to Rotimi... What if he was not the one?I had a life! Pieces of fragments of despair, tears , fear and anger weakly held together with some sort of str
I was obsessed with her. I had Lousiana in my mind, I wanted to be there... To brag to my friends and my peers that I had brought a damsel of beauty from the city. I wanted to be respected and bowed down to in honour.Alvarez... I believed was the right guy for the job until everything turned into a lucid nightmare. What awaited me , was a future of fame and I wanted her to be there no matter the danger.At first I thought it was some sort of prank. Yes... The dangerous pranks we used to do back in the ghetto but I was wrong. The mission was about to back fire ... It was no longer a mission!"Hey, what's not happening?" I inquired as the bald masculine guy pulled out a pistol. What followed was a violent blow that left be sprawling on the ground.I dragged myself up as razor-sharp bolts of pain shot up through my back. My jaws clenched in livid ridges . When I stood up another flash of pain shot up through my tight shoulder. I felt as if I had been shot.I stumbled again as waves of a
"Are you crazy... After all the years we have been apart?" She smirked as we tightly embraced in tight hug. She used to be petite many years ago but she's now chubby and more beautiful than before. My best childhood friend had to be present on this big day."Awwwn, am... A bit nervous, you know it's my... " "It's your big day my dear and I have a big surprise for you," she paused and raised her eyebrows. I expected her to reveal whatever it was about but she just stared at me making me more curious."I will only reveal it to you when time is due, for now," she looked around as if she was literally confirming that there were no ears in the walls before she leaned forward and whispered into my ear, "lemme prepare you for your hot man's cock in the evening," she laughed.I had to honour our loyal friendship by inviting her to the biggest day of my life. The day I was getting married to the man I loved the most. The one music superstar, Rotimi."You know you are the luckiest woman in th
Where was she? Was she dead or under more excruciating pain than me? Whatever she was going through was all for my sake. I owed her a decent life. If I won't die today will live to make her safe and happy.But the secret... She will never know that I am the killer and all the she went through was on my behalf. I didn't know for how long I had dozed but the screeching of brakes in what I thought was the car park jolted me back to reality. I remembered Jacob was on his way here. He was a furious driver who drove anywhere as he was racing against some imaginary enemy. Possibly he was the one who had just arrived. I sunk my head between my knees in pain. In a second I had all the best and the worst moments through my subconscious mind. And this was the day I was probably going to meet with the same girl whose appointment with devil I had fixed.'Forgive me Monique. In one way or the other I had to do but I wouldn't have done so if I wasn't forced to. I... " The iron door violently we
"I knew you will attempt to do this after killing her. You ain't lucky at all! You are going to get married to him weather you like it or not!" He boomed as he shoved into the backseat of the Jeep. I was now used to pain. I wished he could just kill me instead of taking me to Clemont Hill if that was about to do."Dad... Am... ""Stop calling me dad! I have been so merciful to you all this time and you tried to fuck up the whole plan! If Will Still learns about your f***king attempt he will just thwart you!" He shouted as he sped down the highway.Deep down I wished they could just have killed me earlier instead of letting me go though all this. I was already paying for the mistakes I didn't commit. "Your wedding is going to be in two weeks time! Don't dare make a fool yourself into trying to make another clumsy move again. I will kill you this time," he threatened.What I heard was reveberating and distorted voice from a distance as the strength and consciousness slowly slipped out
