" It's fine, don't worry about it..." he trailed off. Her hand bent over to pick up the clutch she intentionally dropped when she bumped into him.
" That's fine, I would see you around then." she turned around to go. She began to count in her head 1..2...and 3.
"Excuse me," the man called her back.
Works like magic, she said to herself walking towards him.
" Umm, you called." she bit down her lips seductively.
" Yeah, here's my card. Call me when you get to your destination. I'd love for us to have dinner, to get to know ourselves better." he stared at her cleavage.
" I'd love to Sir," she responded.
" Call me Ajax...AJ for short," he told her.
" Alright AJ, I'm Valerie...and it was nice meeting you.

" We meet again Kai Maximilian," Valerie curled her lip pointing a gun at Elon's head. " What do you want?" he interrogated as another masked man held Xara down. " Chill, Kai. A little payback won't hurt," she laughed like a maniac. " Why did I involve myself with you in the first place?" he blurted out. " Because I could give it to you real good. Something none of your bitches could do," she let out a dry laugh. " Yeah right," " I loved you, Kai, since high school. But you ignored me. You reported to management that I was stalking you and hurt some of the girls you went out with. Of course, I did all that. But I still loved you, so after college, I tracked you. But you didn't recognise me. I had changed. We were fine until Mabel came in, but she was a scaredy-cat so she ran off. Then you went for her, I thought she would leave as her sister did. She didn't.

" For how long have you been a Mafia lawyer?" he couldn't help but ask. " After law school, when my dad died. I had no choice but to take over because I was my father's successor that's why he sent me to law school in the first place.

I was sceptical at first but when time went on, I got used to it and decided to stay." she explained. " I see," he answered. Lorenzo and Kenzie headed over to her plac

Xara lay on her worn-out mattress, staring at the ceiling, waiting for the day of her cursed marriage. She had tried several times to change her parent's minds, but to no avail. She didn't want this kind of life for herself. She wanted to graduate, find a job, find true love and then settle down with the man of her dreams. She was a beauty to behold.I guess that ain't happening anytime soon. She thought to herself. Why hadn't she run off, just like her sister Mabel did? She just didn't have the guts to do so. She had always put her family before another thing, and this is what it had landed her into. “Maybe it won't be that bad; at least I get to continue my education and mom and dad live a better life." She tried to convince herself. She heard a knock on her door as her best friend, Alianna entered. “Bad time?" She asked her. “Does it matter anymore?" She sighed as her friend sat beside her.

Amanda greeted Xara, making her chuckle.“Good morning, Amanda, How was your night?" She replied. “It was fine, and what of yours? She asked, waiting for a reply, when a beautiful young woman walked into the kitchen wearing sexy night wear. Xara didn’t bother asking who she was and where she came from because she already knew the answer. It was obvious her husband preferred being with a whore rather than his wife on their wedding night. How wonderful!“My breakfast!" She said rudely . Xara looked on and shook her head at her behavior. She was about to take a bite from her food when the lady pulled the plate that was served to Xara and began eating just to rile her up, and it was working.“Excuse me?!." She yelled. “What?! Peasant."

Penny and Alianna got along so well and she was glad for that. “Xara, you zoned out again?" Penny said pausing the movie that they were watching.“I'm fine." She tried convincing her. “No, you aren't; your mind is somewhere else." She pressed. “It's just that two months ago I was a struggling poor student, but yet I had my freedom to do anything, but now that I married a rich man, I am regretting every bit of it. This is not how I pictured my happy ever after." She cried out. “It's going to be fine, " Alianna said, standing at the doorway. “Could this get any worse than it already is?" She whispered. “You know, I hate to see you like this," Alianna said
