At the end of that week, on Saturday specifically, she stood in front of the mirror, nervously smothering the side of her black dress even though it wasn't rumpled. She had dressed up prettily in a black dress and packed her hair into a bun as the note in the parcel had instructed.
Dinner at 8 on Saturday. At the new fast food just outside your estate. Sure you know the name, can't miss it. And dress pretty for me in a black dress, with your hair up, amore. —The note read.
As she made her way to Chop taste, the fast-food he had instructed she met him, she stopped for a bit to send a text to Anna, telling her where she was headed... she did that just in case that was the last they saw of her. At least they could trail links to find her dead body and bury it. Not that she'd deserve a burial.

She winced naturally, as she had become accustomed to it been the first thing she did at the dawn of day, thanks to her thin curtains that never stop light from penetrating. She expected the light to hit her closed eyes, but to her surprise, there was no hit. Behind her lids told her her room wasn't as bright as it usually was.She yawned wondering why she felt so rested. Her brows frowned as her body told her it wasn't used to the feel of the bed she was on, though it was comfy, it just didn't feel like her bed. She croaked her lids open and was met with an unfamiliar environment.The neatly arranged room with yellow painted walls caught her eyes. Then the thick grey curtains —which explained why strays of sunlight didn't greet her vision—, a chair that had few folded clothes on it and a door that she knew would lead to a bathroom at once. She puffed a

It was Monday again, and Elena was back to work, looking more dolled up than usual only because she wanted to believe she was okay. She had to believe she was okay. The world had to believe.The bright colors she wore —A yellow long-sleeved shirt, tucked into a green trouser and yellow suede shoes— were a complete contrast to her mood. Dark. Beyond dark.She had never been in a light mood, not that she could remember. But she had managed to steady herself in a neutral mood for three years now. And then cane the psycho to push her back to her old lane.She didn't miss it... being in such a dark mood. Being on such a dark side.

The music from the club was heard from blocks away making Ana bubbly already.From the review mirror, Elena saw the cab driver look to the club lights that spelled El-Casino Grinds before he slowed down. They'd decided coming in a cab instead of one of their cars would be preferable.They both planned on getting laid wasted, and coming in either of their cars would mean arguing for who would drive and who wouldn't at the end of the night."Keep the change," Elena told the cab driver she handed him a thousand naira note from where she sat at the back seat."Thanks, miss."Anna squealed, clinging to Elena's arm as they got down from the cab. "Tonight's gonna be litty litty.""Shut it, keep your twisting

Three days had passed. Three days of constantly remembering that night at the club. The bloody scene. The smell of the blood. The sick bastard being so close to the only person that mattered to her. She wanted to puke thinking about how close he came to Anna.The threats in his tone when he hinted Anna's silence was best. The wicked grin on his face as he turned to leave that day.Sick was an understatement, the guy was insane. He was worse than a psychopath.She wanted to run away. Yes, I could, she thought seriously considering it. I could go away for some time and then come back to my company. Three months should be enough for him to find someone else to torment.Anna, she remembered he already met Anna. He'd no doubt take it out in her be

He stared at her in annoyance and a mixture of relief.What the hell was she thinking of being distracted the way she was. She could have gotten hit, just the thought of it unsettled him.This same girl he could’ve watched a man rape with a smirk on his face. This same girl he could no longer imagine his life without. He wanted her. Needed her. And that truck with the bastard behind it could’ve taken her away from him."Here, drink this." He handed a cup of liquid to her— the same mixture of herbs he’d given to her the first day she was here. "It’s the same from that day. It’ll help you relax."When she still didn’t make a move to collect it, he sighed, kept it on the table in front of her, and began to

At least he has feelings for something, she thought.Elena had fallen asleep during the drive and was awoken by a tap. She jerked up, rubbing the place she'd been tapped — by who she was certain was Gregory— in irritation.He chuckled maniacally, stepping out as a man in a black suit held the door open for him.Another suited man held the door open for her.As she stepped out she noticed they were many men in suit.

The landing was the most smooth Elena ever had. She took in large gulps of air in relief that they were finally on the ground. She'd always hate flying.She waited for instruction from him or a head nudge, all he did was unbuckle himself and strode past her.From the other segment, she knew his men in black stayed, the man that had held the door open for her walked out. "Ma'am, you may get down. I'll show you." He gestured for her to follow behind him.She wasn't in a place in her life to be awed, but she couldn't stop herself. It was beautiful.As soon as she'd stepped down from the jet, she struggled to keep her mouth from falling open in awe.The

He watched as his sisters and mother fawned over her after he'd told them she's his woman. When he'd seen she wanted to argue, he tapped the pistol he always had in his belt hook and she'd managed a small smile. They rushed to her asking her name, what country she was from, what language she spoke. His mum hadn't been easy to convince. She'd called him to the side while the girls led his woman into the house, but he'd always thought he was good in putting up an act when it involved Rebecca, his mum.
