Alex was stunned for a second before he gritted his teeth. “What did you just do, Mia?“ he asked angrily.I looked back at him with the same anger. “That is just a warning that nothing is going to ever happen between you and me! Alex, we shall never be together!“Alex stared back at me, his eyes so dark and deep. “Do you dare to say that to me again?“ He asked, breathing fire.And as stubborn and angered as I felt at that time, I could not keep my mouth shut. “I meant exactly that. You won't force me to do anything I don't want to do,” I said.Alex suddenly held my neck and pulled me closer to him. I gasped for breath. He was choking me.But he did not seem scared. “Since you are trying to act hard, I will show you what I ought to do. By the time Dave finds you are here, I will have devoured you. He won't want to ever touch you again…”He leaned forward to kiss me as his grip on my neck slightly loosened. But I turned my face to the side. He only managed to kiss my cheek.And that agi
I tried to hold onto him. “What is happening?“ I asked. But he pulled away from me. “Just stay here and don't make a sound if you want to stay alive,” he said. But he looked tense.He walked out and locked the door behind him. But I was not very stupid. I knew that if we were surrounded, there was a possibility that dad and Dave had come!Thinking about it, I quickly rushed to the window. Even though I could not see anything, I had hopes that I was going to be saved.I tried opening the door. All I needed was to let Dave see me, and I would be safe again. But it did not open. Fearfully, I looked around the room for something that would help me.…Alex rushed out of the house and saw his men already gathered, guns in their hands. “What do you guys think you are doing? Drop them,” he said, and he looked straight at Dave who was on the other side of his compound, his men behind him.Even though Alex's men were confused by his command, they still obeyed and dropped their guns. Dave's men
WARNING: THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT NOT SUITABLE FOR YOUNGER VIEWERS I was shocked by his sudden behaviour, but I allowed him to take me with him. I just wanted him to understand what had happened so that he wasn't mad at me anymore.But when he pushed me into his bathroom and followed me in, my eyes widened in shock. “Brother…”Dave locked the door behind him and reached for the shower head. “Mia, have I ever told you this? I don't touch what another man has touched. You are dirty!“ He said.I was frozen in place. Did he think that I had slept with Alex? Noo! That did not happen. “Brother, he did not do anything to me. I did not allow him to touch me!“But Dave directed the shower head at me. The cold water made me scream in fear. That was just too sudden.“I know,” he stated coldly. “But you slept on his bed. You have been with him the whole day. I want to wash you clean…”I shivered continuously as the cold water splashed on me. No matter how I tried to escape it, he dir
I looked at Dave's back as he left and more tears fell from my eyes. I just did not believe that he had forced himself on me.Frequently, he had told me how much he loved me, how he wanted to be the man in my life. He had also said that we were dating, since that day that I had met Alex. But I thought he was just bluffing.But at that moment, I realized that he was capable of anything. He had clearly told me that he did not regret anything he did. That if time was to go back, he would do the same.I hugged myself and cried. I still remembered the words that Becky had told me that day. She had said that once Dave was done toying with someone, he would never give them a glance.The thought of losing him after this time made me feel scared. And I wanted to hit myself on the wall for that. He had assaulted me! Why did I still want to remain attached to him? If he wanted to start hating me, I would never have a say about it.Feeling aggrieved, and not knowing what to do, I lay back on the
Dave and Zack looked at each other silently for a while. Then they both nodded in understanding.Zack sighed. “Are you feeling scared? I will handle this. That is why I am here for you and Mia,” he said.Dave was silent for a second. “Dad, I am not worried about myself. I am just afraid that he might try to hurt those around me, just like he did in the past.“Zack patted Dave's shoulder. “We have to come up with a plan soon. I am sure he won't hurt any of us ever again.“…Fortune pushed open Pissy's room angrily. He saw the man seated on the bed, doing something on his computer.Seeing Fortune, Pissy looked up. “Sir, did everything go on well?“ He asked. He was just worried that YS would find out that he was the one who had given out his information.“Who are you?“ Fortune asked without beating around the bush. He was hoping that Pissy would confess the whole truth to him.But Pissy shivered. He looked up at Fortune while trembling. Then he forced a smile. “What do you mean, sir? Stop
…After Dave's proposal, things got a little difficult between us. From time to time, he would pester me to give him an answer. If not, he would be mad at me for turning him down.He had given me three days to give him an answer, and he had clearly said that he would not take a no.I felt frustrated. I didn't like it when anyone put me in such a tight spot. But he was my brother. I could not just be mad at him.I decided to think of something with time. At the moment, I would keep looking for excuses to keep him away.When the door opened, I sat up with a start. He was here again. Today was the third day since he told me to think about it.Dave walked into the room and sat on the bed. “Did I startle you? You look like you have seen a ghost…” he said with pursed lips.I licked my lips and shook my head. “Um… I had not expected to see you here now,” I said.Dave sighed and held my hand. “Are you sure? This is the day that you are supposed to give me an answer. How can I not be here?“ He
When Dan came, I was feeling so low. A tear fell from my eyes the moment he hugged me. “Mia, is everything okay?“ Dan asked worriedly.I quickly wiped away the tears and nodded at him. “Hhm… I just wanted someone to talk to,” I said.Dan looked at me as if he wanted to say something. But instead, he wiped away the remaining tears from my face. “You look ugly when you cry. Didn't I tell you this before?“ He asked.I tried to smile at him. “I thought I would never see you again,” I said. That was the truth. It had been more than one month since we saw each other.And Dan sighed. “Mia, I am really sorry for what I did that day. If only I had not tried to confess, we would never have been apart. You have suffered a lot, all by yourself,” he said.But I shook my head at him. “It is fine. I should be the one apologizing to you for…”Dan hurriedly covered my mouth with his hands. “Nope! You shouldn't apologize. I know that I am one of the best friends that you will have for life, right?“ He
At first, Dave did not want to believe that Mia would turn him down forever. He thought that she was just not ready, but she would give in to him with time.But even after trying, her answer remained the same. The previous day, he had decided to leave just as a way of threatening her. He was expecting that she would be running to him after he kept some distance from her.But when she called him in the morning, and he heard her crying, he felt bad. He had decided to go and find her.For the first time, he decided to take a risk. Even if she could not say yes to him but accepted his flowers, it would mean that he still had some hope.But little did he expect that he would actually find her crying in another man's embrace. That had made him feel so bad. He had wished to beat that man into pulp, but he had changed his mind in the end.He decided to just let her do things that would make her happy. If she was happy being with Dan, then there was nothing that he, Dave, could do about it.But
