Nina walked downstairs with the maids. When she got to the sitting room, she saw Jericho with some boys. He was smoking too.
He turned when he noticed her presence and summoned her to come closer.
Nina limped forward to him while the maids went back to their duties. The boys with Jericho laughed, seeing her the way she walked to them.
She rolled her eyes at them and said, "Bastards" with so much hatred in her voice.
She just hate this place. She hates Jericho. Everything that has to do with him.
Jericho heard the word and arched his brows at her. "You don't insult my people." He snapped.
"Like I care." Nina retorted as she got to him.
Jericho pushed her down to her knees and played with her hair.
"Guys, she's my sex slave from this moment. Tell others about it. I don't want anyone to touch her without my permission. Is that clear?" He introduc
Nina was taken to the torture room and was left there alone.She panicked. What has she done? Why did she disobey him? She shouldn't have done that mistake.Minutes later, Jericho came in with David. What's really his relationship with David? Perhaps, he might be his assistant or something.Nina's heart skipped a beat as she saw Jericho go to the other side of the room and brought out a long whip.Oh! He's going to beat her to death?"Please, I was just feeling weak and hungry. I couldn't find the maids around. So, I had to come downstairs myself." She tried to explain but it seems Jericho isn't buying that.He got to her and bent down to her size. He stared at the fearful and tearful ocean blue eyes of hers.He smiled evilly and said,
Her body trembled as she saw Jericho staring coldly at her. He wore a hoodie.How did he know she was here? Why would he come here? So many questions ran through her mind. She gulped and looked away."Alicia, i think I'm in trouble. Jericho is here. He's going to kill me when we get home." Nina panicked.What if he knows what she told Alicia?"The leader is here? Where?" She tried to look back but Nina stopped her."Don't look back. See, just go. I don't want to put you into trouble. Just go back to class carefully." She told Alicia."Seriously, I can't believe you're so afraid of him.""I should be. Don't you know who he is?" Nina's eyes never left Jericho.Alicia was so eager to turn back and see who the guy Jericho is. She gently stood up from her seat and traced Nina's gaze.He saw h
Chapter 9Nina got into the second car with Jericho while the boys took the first car. Her heart skipped so many times.What's waiting for her at home? She heaved a sigh which made Jericho stared at her.He watched her for some seconds. His eyes roamed slowly on her body. Her brown hair was long, brown eyes and perfect lips.Her lips were plump and kissable. He shook her head slowly and looked away. He shouldn't be imagining what it feels to kiss her.No, he shouldn't.They got home and came down from the car. He walked inside and hastened his steps to his room.Nina on the other hand, walked slowly, dragging her feet on the tiles. She got to Jericho's door and glanced.Should she go in or not? No. He didn't ask her to come in now. Nina gulped and sat on her bed just as she got to her room."What's my fate right now?" She asked herself.
Oh! She shouldn't have been Jericho's slave. She'd make her life miserable. She doesn't want to see any other girl apart from her alone.She belongs to Jericho. No one else. She owns him. She only can tame him, take care of him and love him. Not Nina.Wait! How did she become Jericho's slave? Huh?She got to the bed and grabbed Nina by hair, waking her up with her horrible voice."Bitch!" She yelled."Hey! Will you stop that and stop grabbing my hair." Nina snapped and yanked her hand off her hair.What the hell? Why will she grab her hair like that? Just like that? No, she doesn't take nonsense from people."You're Jericho's slave? Since when did he start having slave? And how that f*ck did you get into his life?"Stacey fired, glaring hard at Nina who care less."You should ask him that question amd not me. He has the reason for making his slav
"Had an accident?" Nina asked shocked. "How come?""I don't know. All I heard was that, he was coming over to your place and there he had an accident. That's all. His injury isn't that serious.""Thank goodness. At least he didn't die." Nina said, so relieved."Yeah."The teacher walked in and began teaching them. It took hours cause it was double period and the class was getting bored.The teacher decided to make an announcement. "There will be a fashion show coming up next week. So, Nina, Alicia, Salome and Tabitha will be going for the show. More details when next i come to class." The teacher said and packed up her things before leaving the class.It was time for break and everyone ran out if the lecture room. Salome walked gingerly to where Nina and Alicia was."I'm sure you're gonna fail like the last time."
"Find him!" He fired immediately.Jericho got up from the swivel chair he stood on and ordered the guards to quickly get the car ready.He really needed to take that guy.Nina gasped, her mouth hung opened as she stared at him."My father?" She repeated.Without hesitating, she took the phone from him and quickly placed it on her ear. "Father?" She spoke softly."Nina!" The voice rang out. It was trembling."Dad," Nina said as she fight back the tears that was trying to come out."Why did you leave me? Where are you? Why did you do this to me?" She blurted out different questions.If only she could see him face to face. She really wanna speak so many words to his face. He really hurt her so much. Her father had made her suffer for what she didn't do.What the hell?"Nina, I'm sorry but i want you to believe that I will
"Where's he?" Jericho's voice came out like a grunt."I don't know what you're talking about?" She seems not to understand. The guy or his father? Which of them is he talking about?She winced when she felt her cheek being pinched. She knows she's going to suffer. Really going to suffer."You want to tell me lies? Tell me where he is? The guy that gave you the phone to speak to your father? Or rather tell me where your father is? You're going to regret it of you don't tell me." Jericho snarled, moving his hand to her neck and down her chest which he pressed the breast so roughly."I..I...don't know where he is. I seriously don't know. My father only said, he might not be able to reach me again. Thats all. He didn't tell me where he is." Nina spoke truthfully but Jericho wasn't buying it."You want to lie to me!! Tell me the truth and I will leave you. But if you don't, you won't be able to bear it."
Nina's eyes went wide opened. She wasn't expecting what came out from Jericho's mouth.Three days in the torture room with only a meal throughout the day? Maybe she didn't hear him well. Just maybe.Her eyes watered, tears threatened to fall but she was holding them back. But it just for while.She kept thinking of her father. A father in his right sense will never watch his daughter suffer.She wished that all this will be over soon.Jericho got into one of the rooms where he do take meetings with the boys.The boys greeted him politely as he walked to the huge chair in front of them and sat down."Daniel, did you find the exact location?" He asked.Some Italians had threatened them by killing two of Jericho's men and he needs to treat them dangerously and roughly."Yes, they are hiding in Crest savanna forest." Daniel answered diligently."Okay, You'll be going with just 10 men with you. Pick them and wait for me
