《Be My Naked Love》


 Chapter 1

    ¡°Mr Lance, you¡¯ve got a letter¡±.


    ¡°Dear Lance,


    It¡¯s been weeks since you got in contact with me. You still have an unpaid sixty four percent of the money I lent you and it¡¯s just two hundred days left as it is on the contract. I hope I get my money before then else you know what I can do. ¡±


    ANDRE FEDERICO.


    Deep in thought, worried and devastated , the 54 year old father to Vanessa and Trey Warner had to seek out a way to pay up the huge sum of money he had borrowed from an Italian Billionaire Andre Federico.


    Two weekster, another letter of reminder was sent to Lance but this time it got to Vanessa. She was so scared , sad and angry her Father didn¡¯t let her know all this. Things were hard  especially since their mom was lost in a tragic ident traveling home from a work trip. Lance who was forced to retire due to his health conditions couldn¡¯t afford to give his kids the right education , fend enough for his family and even run a business that he had to go on a loan.


    ¡°How are we going to pay off all this money in just less than two hundred days?¡± Vanessa asked.


    ¡°You could have told me I would have opted to skip college and have a job for now , I couldn¡¯t evenplete college. We spent a lot on your health, feeding, bills here and there ¡± she said in a pessimistic tone.


    ¡°I did what i felt was best at the moment for us¡± Mr Lance cried out coughing repeatedly. I am sorry i hadn¡¯t inform you earlier. I am going to die anyway its not like my health condition is getting better, the man doesn¡¯t know you or any of my family members¡­ Let hime for me. I still have some money left, you and Miles can move out of the town get married and start your new life, you are going to take Trey along also till he is man enough to live on his own and have a family, you both have my blessings.¡±


    ¡°No no no, we are not doing that i can not leave you alone in this, i understand you did this for us, i have to in one way help raise some of them money¡±.


    ¡°You do what i say and move out of this town or you would end up killed and wasted with me¡±  answered Lance.  They went on exchanging words of regret and disappointment leaving Trey so confused he mmed the door and said he was going to move into his friends ce till they conflict was over. This brought a moment of quiet between Vanessa and her father. Swinging her arms and making murmuring movements was only what she could do in the room. Vanessa was out at night with her high school lover Miles Coleman. They have been dating since the tenth grade of high school and now on the verge of marriage but everything was about to cut short.


    ¡°Girl, girl¡­ we have been here for twenty minutes and you haven¡¯t said a word, is everything okay?¡± a worried Miles asked. He pondered deeply, is everything okay with her or did I hurt her?.


    She answered with tears in her ears and a tone with just pure bitterness ¡°We are about to lose our lives, they are going to kill us¡±


    Now more scared and worried in a loud shaky tone Miles asked,


    ¡°Who?¡±


    ¡°Why are they after your lives?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s my father, he did it for us and now we are in a big mess. Having lost every bit offort in him, Miles asked Vanessa to at least leave the restaurant with him so they could go home and talk. She agreed to go with him for the night and spend the night there with him. After a thirty seven minutes drive to his house, Miles told Vanessa to get to bed andter when she¡¯s up they would talk and she did so, it was the first time she got to sleep in his house , she always has had to go home earlier to cook for her dad and brother. Miles already called Lance and informed him Vanessa would be staying for the night.


    Preparing her favorite coffee, Vanessa went on to Miles hugged him from behind before taking a sip off the mug.


    ¡°How do you feel now?¡± Miles asked stroking her hair after she ced her head on hisp while they were on the couch.


    ¡°I am much better¡± grinning with a smile on her face.


    ¡°It¡¯s my Dad and the people he got a loan from. He took the loan from them five years ago not long after mom died. He didn¡¯t inform me until I got one of the reminder letters they kept sending to him. He has less than two hundred days to return the money or they would act otherwise.  ¡°How much is the money?¡±, he said he had already paid thirty six percent of the money and it remains two hundred and seventy thousand dors.


    ¡°What!!¡±


    ¡°Why did he take so much of a loan?¡±


    ¡°He said he needed it for his first and second surgeries , my college fees , feed us and even start the coffee shop. Since we sold a lot of stuff to help mom with her business trip but it ended in tears.


    ¡°What is going to happen now , we can raise so much money in less than two hundred days?¡± Miles asked in a sad tone.


    ¡°We??!¡±This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Ofcourse, we are in this together.¡± he said with a smile. Informing him what Lance had said about moving out of town, getting married and starting a new life , Miles was also not in support.


    ¡°I would get a loan from my friends and the bank so we can pay them off, that way no one is on the verge of dying. ¡°No, no ¡­ you are not taking any loan , loans got us into this mess. ¡°How will you pay them if we get loans from them?¡±. Knowing she was right, silence ruled over them.


    Kissing her forehead ¡°By tomorrow we would know what to do better, now we just need to get some sleep. Sensing her arousal, Miles kissed her on her lips, he knew she wanted him inside of her.


    ¡°I want this body¡±.


    ¡°Its yours¡±


    For a long moment he just caressed her entire body from head to toe with his gaze. The hunger in his eyes sent a bolt of heat through her. He was all muscle and power with a raw sexuality emitting from him that captivated her. Putting her hands behind her back, he split the red skirt she was wearing and shaped her waist, enjoying the feel of her soft skin beneath his fingers. Snaking his hands further around, he dipped them to cup her ass while licking along the swell of her breasts. He loved her ass ¨C it was firm and pert and fit just right in his hands, much like the breasts he was staring at.  ¡°I think I¡¯d like better ess to these.¡± He slipped his hands into the satin cups and scooped out her breasts. Perfect.


    A moan slipped out of Vanessa as he curled his tongue around one of her nipples. He sucked, bit, licked and grazed it with his teeth before moving on to the other. Goosebumps broke over her skin when he pulled back and blew on both wet buds until they tightened painfully. Needing his mouth on them again to take away the ache, she swayed forward slightly and arched into him. The piece of shit spanked her ass instead. ¡°Spread your legs a little for me¡±. Without any preamble he slipped a finger inside her and groaned when her muscles gripped it tight and moisture greeted it. He slowly thrust his finger in and out of her, kissing her lips simultaneously. He drew a nipple into his mouth while circling her clit with the thumb of the hand that was finger fucking her. Then he inserted another finger and gave her more of thosezy thrusts that never failed to drive her crazy ¨C and that was the whole idea. Slowly he drove his cock into her making her take all of it and she did that making both of them feel so good. She groaned and shot a powerful orgasm while he twisted his tongue around her clit.


    Yeah it could be said that they had engaged in a sexual marathon. Miles was insatiable and had an impressive stamina.


    ¡°What can i do to save my family and earn a lot of money real quick¡± her heart troubled her. She knew she couldn¡¯t be a thief and she couldn¡¯t traffic drugs. ¡°A sex worker?¡± No!


    Her curvy, slender and good looking body told her she could be a stripper , she would definitely get the attention of men and being a good ballet student, the poles won¡¯t be difficult she thought.

 Chapter 2

    Approximately one hundred and sixty three days left, Lance had raised just three thousand dors from the coffee shop and selling some of the possessions he owned. Vanessa still hadn¡¯t made a penny to bring home.


    Later that night she headed up to the biggest club in the town THE NEXUS. On arriving there , she met the female lead stripper Selma who was amazed by Vanessa¡¯s physical appearance and instantly knew she would be a top watch by the men.


    ¡°Are you really ready for this?¡± asked Selma.


    ¡°I am,¡± she answered in a sh.


    ¡°It¡¯s the biggest night of the year at The Nexus, if you participate tonight you could make home over ten thousand whooping dors.¡±


    ¡°Whoa! that¡¯s a whole lot.¡± She knew it was the perfect job for her night. Without much hesitation, Vanessa signed an agreement with Selma to give her twelve percent of her daily ie.


    ¡°I would be spending my night at Miles¡¯ ce, he needs me to help him with some office work¡±.


    ¡°Okay, that¡¯s fine. My regards should be well sent to him¡± answered Lance who was already dizzy.


    Gotten her clothes ready it was half past eight when she arrived at the club. Although the event was due to start by tenter that night she had to be early. Fifteen minutes drive to the club wasn¡¯t the time as the taxi man spent over seven minutes fixing his tires.


    ¡°This is the new girl Vanessa, she would be joining you all in the VIPS party tonight, be nice.¡± That was all Selma informed the other strippers at Club Nexus but Theresa wasn¡¯t enjoying all of that. She felt that Selma was going to give Vanessa a special treatment, not because she¡¯s new but her appearance. Theresa didn¡¯t want Vanessa on stage that night as the best stripper that night always became popr afterwards earning more money even after the event.


    ¡°Why don¡¯t I show you around?¡± Theresa offered.


    ¡°Sure, why not¡± answered Vanessa innocently. Murmurs flew in from all corners of the room as they all didn¡¯t trust Theresa. Minding their businesses, they all got ready for the night.


    ¡°How long have you been here?¡± Vanessa curiously asked, walking side by side through a long passage with Theresa.


    ¡°Six years , Selma has just been here for three years but she was liked by the owner of the club and ced her as our head¡± in a furious tone Theresa responded.


    ¡°Why exactly are you here? You look like some high profile college girl¡±. True, she really does look like one and the way sheposes herself and the way she talks blended all right in.


    ¡°It¡¯s a more personal story. I don¡¯t really want to share¡±. ¡°Where are we heading too?¡± she asked but Theresa gave no response.


    ¡°Hello girl, i am talking to you¡± she stopped walking.


    ¡°Do you think I¡¯d let youe steal the spotlights here tonight?!¡± ¡­ Never!. Vanessa pushed her trying to run but she dodged so well like she was a ck belter. She hit Vanessa up her face and fisted a punch through her stomach making her fall. Her aim was to make her unconscious so she locked her up in one of the store rooms here. She hit Vanessa with a big stick of fine oak wood. She missed. Vanessa grabbed it from her making them exchange ps and hair pulling, then finally Theresa was struck against the wall making her unconscious and throwing up. Vanessa took to heels before she was used wrongly. Ten minutes to the event was all that was left. Looking so unkempt, scattered hair and a side of her braziers cut, a furious Selma asked ¡°What happened to you?! Where is Theresa?!¡±.


    Fidgeting and looking scared of losing her job she lied she was almost being raped by a fake security man but instantly the other members knew it was a lie , she had been in a battle with the b*tch. ¡°Theresa said she wanted to grab some water before we started ¡± she answered in a scared tone.


    Few minutes after Selma left the room , ¡°We are sure you had her beaten up already ¡± they said. Looking surprised and devastated , ¡°Why was she after me?¡±.  ¡°She is the devil in here and she¡¯s jelly you might steal all the spotlights. You have started a battle with her, I really just hope you will be victorious atst. Three girls have lost their jobs because of her ¡°.  ¡°That would never be my case, I will end her¡±.


    ¡°It has started ¡°. ¡°Twenty minutes from now, we would be called in¡± a good looking girl Ashley announced. ¡°Have fun out there and make yourself good money¡± Selma mentioned before telling them to go in. It was one full party , rich men from far and near all surrounded with exotic drinks and pretty girls who made them feel fly. It was a luxurious party, money was sprayed all over but at some moment everywhere became silent as an angel took on a pole to dance. The angel was Vanessa. The big lights went on her as she moved up and down the metallic rod. Her body was so captivating , it had the perfect curves. She had on a white topping which showed a little off her nipples. The movements she made got some men so hard they want every inch of her body. Men started spraying their money all over her. She kept doing her thing and more cash was all over her. Theresa had just regained consciousness, she had to be inside the hall before Selma knew how long she had been out. Hastening her footsteps, at the door she wasn¡¯t allowed in. An order from Selma she thought.


    ¡°You are suspended for the next two weeks¡± a voice ran in behind her. You broke the rules. The strippers were only given ten minutesteness grace, she was forty minuteste. This favored other strippers more money for them. She was so angry and the only thing in her mind now was how to end Vanessa. She headed to their room to get dressed and leave, she left not just with her clothes but Vanessa¡¯s bag and stuff too. She had thrown them in the trash. It was only past three in the morning that the show ended. Of course , Vanessa made most of the profits, overwhelmed with joy in her heart she barely noticed her bag was gone.


    ¡°You got an angel on the poles tonight, who is she?¡± asked the club owner.


    ¡°It¡¯s her first time.¡± ¡°She is Vanessa¡±. answered Selma.


    ¡°Invite her over for a dance now¡± he ordered.C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.


    In six minutes, she was already with him in his luxurious bedroom which was on the fourth floor of the club. The walls were all perfectly smooth. The floors were covered with an expensive taupe rug that felt attractively soft. There was a triple wardrobe styled like those for males , and arge set of drawers; both a dark oak that matched the headboard of the tform bed. The bed itself was under a smooth arch. He was Andre, the man who lent her father the money. Unfamiliar to her, she took to the poles and she went on like an angel that she was.


    ¡°Take it off, don¡¯t dress up tonight ¡°. He said in amanding tone. Struck by that , she paused and kind of needed him to repeat himself.


    ¡°Do what I asked and this is yours¡±. The stack of money was unted to her. It was around twenty five thousand dors to thirty thousand dors. She thought within her ¡°At least he is not asking for sex¡±. She took off her clothings and waspletely naked. Dancing on the pole, her body was all he focused on , giving him a hard-on. She was well shaved. The way her breasts swung around with her could almost leave him salivating. After an hour and half , he gave her the money and asked her to leave. She made a sum of eleven thousand dors from the show having paid Selma her twelve percent.


    ¡°Who took them?!¡± Vanessa cried out loud.


    ¡°I left them right here!¡±. Her mind told her it could be only one person. The stupid hussy she got into a fight with some hours ago. Selma offered her some clothes and decided to drop her off at home. She never allows anyone in her car, she had always asked them to take a taxi whilst she paid. Theresa didn¡¯t go home and was waiting so she could attack Vanessa on her way home and saw all that happened and it made her more mad.


    ¡°I can¡¯t let this body leave me that way, i need a taste of it¡± Andre thought as he gulped down his wine.


    ¡°Thank you so much for today Selma , I am really grateful¡± she said with a smile.


    ¡°You are wee and I must say you¡¯ve got some nice moves I want to learn¡± . They bothughed and waved goodbye as Vanessa alighted at the gate of her house. ¡°You¡¯d be backter tomorrow right?¡± Selma  asked curiously but all Vanessa could do was respond with a smile.


    Was she ready to go back and make more money? But having an enemy getting in the way of her peace. How about the mysterious man, would he want her naked again? She thought about all these but right now all she needed was a good long rest.

    Was she ready to go back and make more money? But having an enemy getting in the way of her peace. How about the mysterious man, would he want her naked again? She thought about all these but right now all she needed was a good long rest.


    ¡°You came in pretty early. Did you have a fight?¡± Lance asked Vanessa who just sprung her eyes open. Sounding tired and with no energy ¡°No we didn¡¯t, I just decided to leave early so I can check on you before I set my day looking for a job.¡± ¡°You could have waited till it was a brighter morning, it is pretty dangerous the time you came in, anytime harmful could have happened ¡°. Not wanting to continue the conversation, she hopped out of her bed and gave him a peck on this cheek heading for the restroom. ¡°Trey didn¡¯te back home yet?¡± she asked as she hurriedly got into the bathroom feeling she was going to have a dder burst. It wasn¡¯t noon yet when Lance had gone to his coffee shop for a daily business. Trey came home to pick some pairs of clothes. ¡°Hey young man , you are noting back to stay and watch over Dad?¡± she asked him just as he was about stepping out. ¡°I will check him at the shop , I can¡¯t stay in this house and get killed¡±. ¡°No one is going to be killed. He said you¡¯ve been working hard and raised a thousand dors already, Thanks. ¡°I am doing it for the family, there is no need to thank me.¡±


    Half past seven in the evening, she had thirty minutes to decide if she is going to continue as a stripper or go and look for a more decent job. Having spent the whole day getting as much rest as she could and doing some chores, her thoughts the whole day rested on this decision.


    ¡°Oh, you didn¡¯t get your ride today?¡± Theresa said, yelling.  Ignoring herpletely, Vanessa strolled into the club.


    ¡°Come back here you little witch¡± Theresa yelled again pulling Vanessa¡¯s hair .


    ¡± I thought I had you suspended from the club. What are you doing here? What is it that you want from me?¡± Vanessa asked in an angry tone.


    ¡°I am suspended from being a dancer here not attending as a customer ¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t have any business with you hussy, leave me and let me go after all it was you that initiated the attack.


    ¡°I would stille for you witch¡±. Theresa added before she left Vanessa with a rough hair.


    Gosh, she hates how thisdy just wants to ruin her night. Greeting the other members, ¡°Where is Ashley?¡± Vanessa asked.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    ¡°She¡¯s gone¡±


    ¡°What! She is dead?!¡±


    ¡°No, no. She quit


    ¡°She is getting married and they are moving out of town.


    Some sighs of relief flowed in her. ¡°That¡¯s some great news,¡± she added, smiling. That¡¯s all she wanted her and Miles to be heard of, but it didn¡¯t seem like it could happen soon. ¡°So who is getting married next?¡± she asked, starting a groupughter. ¡°Maybe Selma¡± answered Juliana. She was right since she was already engaged but her fianc¨¦ was out of town for some time , no one knows what might end up with them.


    ¡°Good evening Mr. Warner. Is Vanessa home?¡± Miles asked on getting to their home to pay a surprise visit to his lover. It was some minutes past ten. ¡°She said she was headed to your ce and she left since it was almost eight.¡± ¡°She is not at my ce ¡± Miles answered him almost immediately.  ¡°Could she be seeing other men just to raise money? Was she trulying over to his ce and got kidnapped?¡±. These questions ran through his head in a sh. More worried now, her number has been totally unavable. ¡°Don¡¯t worry Mr Lance I¡¯d go look for her. If by tomorrow she isn¡¯t home we would file a report at the police station ¡°. He headed out moving in a high speed in his Toyota car, he searched every bus station , junctions and routes to his house, there was no sign of her. Her number stillpletely unavable.


    ¡°Where could she be? I can¡¯t lose her like this!. Her family needs her now. Could these men have taken her?¡±. Through the night he kept calling but her number wasn¡¯t avable.


    ¡°Vanessa, you are not going to be at the party tonight.¡± in utter shock as Selma announced this news to her.  ¡°What? Why? Did I do anything wrong?¡±


    ¡°No you didn¡¯t, you have a special request. The CEO wants you tonight¡±. Hating him at that point, she knew he would want her go naked and dance again while he yed with his cock right in front of her.


    ¡°Okay fine, I¡¯d be there¡±.


    Twelve minutester, she was already in the room but no sign of him. Worried and confused, sheid down on the ensuite bed swinging her legs uprightly. Turning her phone on, he came in and she dropped from the bed like she had a heavy push. Heughed at her, making her feel embarrassed.


    Music started. Without saying a word to each other she had swung herself high on the pole but she didn¡¯t take her clothes off. After eight minutes of dancing, she was surprised he didn¡¯t ask her to take her clothes off yet. She felt ease not reallyfortable but it was still a good thing. She didn¡¯t enjoy having to take them off. Thirty minutes now , she still had not gotten naked.


    ¡°Take it off. Now!!!¡± Andre said in a loud tone. Fear, shock and confusion all ran into Vanessa. He could have said it in a lower tone, I won¡¯t disobey him. Coming down from the pole. ¡°Okay¡± she responded in a mild tone. ¡°I was not talking to you Vanessa, do your thing ¡± he answered calmly.


    More confused and disturbed, ¡°Who was he talking to then?¡±. Then she noticed he was talking to one of his bodyguards who wrongly ced a gadget in the room.


    ¡°You can have a ten minutes break and thene back¡±. He acted so differently today, she thought. He didn¡¯t ask her to take her clothes off and now he is giving her a break. Surprised but happy she could rest. She hastened to the restroom hoping she wouldn¡¯t one day lose her dder. She heard the tones of jealousy straight from their room in the club. ¡°We have been here for years and he never asked us to dance¡±. Maybe Theresa was right, she was here to steal their business from them. Not happy with the statements, she broke down and started to tear up. She had a minute left to return to Andre. Maybe this was the end, she wouldn¡¯t return again after she receives today¡¯s pay from Andre. She thought as she took the elevator up to the fourth floor. Miles¡¯ calls had gone in but she didn¡¯t respond. Her phone was on silent and it was somewhere on the bed after she tripped off. Not getting sleep that night, Miles had already taken threerge jars of caffeine and was already on his fourth bottle of alcohol. He had been a heavy drinker, that much alcohol was no new to him.


    ¡°Take them off!¡± he sounded again.


    Sighting the bodyguard, Vanessa ignoredpletely which made him furious. ¡°I am talking to you Vanessa!¡±. This night was so difficult to understand. She did as he asked and as usual he shed therge heap of cash. Stroking his cock, he wanted her mouth all over it, he wanted her to take all of his semen in but he didn¡¯t ask her to do it. Releasing a huge spread of semen across the bed, he felt ease inside of him and had asked a sex worker in to have his cock in her mouth. She gulped in every inch of his cock whilst Vanessa moved and swung around the pole. After the second and third release, he asked the sex worker to leave.


    ¡°Here is your money¡± offering the heap of new dor notes to Vanessa , he felt he just sat on something. His hands down, picked up the phone he saw. ¡°This is yours?¡± she nodded slightly in an agreeing manner. A message popped in and he took a look at it.


    ¡°Daughter. Where are you?. Miles has been here worried about you. He has been on a search since past ten. The man sent in another letter. He said he was already in town and has left Italy. There was no way I could run, he would find me in this town.¡±   The message came in from Lance who she had saved as Dad.


    Andre, knowing he just sent a letter to a man about his arrival from Italy, guessed she was Lance¡¯s daughter.  ¡°This is a perfect bait to have this body as mine¡±. Offering her phone, wanting to receive the money too, he refused and asked her to leave.

 Chapter 4

    ¡°Hey little thief!¡±


    ¡°You think you can go without paying my money after the agreement we had?¡± Selma said shouting in a loud tone that could make her lose her voice. She was asking for her twelve percent from the share Vanessa got from meeting with Andre thest night.  ¡°He didn¡¯t give me any money¡± Vanessa answered, almost shedding tears from her eyes. ¡°You thief, a liar and a scam, you think you can y games with me right?, I promise I will show you who you just messed with.¡± still in a loud tone Selma responded ending the call.


    It was 2:17am in the morning, Vanessa had cried her eyes out. ¡°What went wrong? Why did he not pay me? I needed this money¡± more questions and thoughts ran in her head. The tears couldn¡¯t just end most especially now Selma thinks she¡¯s a thief and had not stuck with their agreement. Forgetting about the text that came in from Lance, she just put her phone on the shelf by her bedside. Lance was already asleep when she came in. Miles was on his couch , drunk and helpless.


    ¡°Hey, hey, hey¡± Lance was waking up Vanessa.


    ¡°Where were youst night? Why were you not at Miles?¡± more questions ran in when a huge bang on the door caught their attention. It was Miles. ¡°Is she back?¡± he ran as he saw Vanessa, headed straight to give her a hug like he hadn¡¯t seen her in years but it was only a day.


    ¡°I was, I was, I ¨C¡± Vanessa tried talking but she slumped and fell t on the bed. ¡°Babe!! Vanessa!!! ¡°Daughter ¡± were the only words that flew in the room. Hurriedly, Miles ced a bag of ice on her head, rested her on hisps trying to make her gain consciousness.


    It was seventeen minutester, when she came back alive.


    ¡°You sound tired and exhausted, ¡± said Miles.


    ¡°Where were youst night?¡± he said almost immediately before even allowing anyone to say a word.


    ¡°I was kidnapped,¡± she said in a shaky tone.


    ¡°Kidnapped! How? Where? When?¡± Miles and Lance asked simultaneously.


    Collecting the mug of hot coffee, ¡°I was on my way to your house when these men hit me on my head and I became unconscious. ¡± she said.


    ¡°What?!¡± Both men said feeling so shocked.


    ¡°It was on the turning to 3rd Avenue, ¡± she added.


    ¡°I wasn¡¯t the only one that had been abducted we were eight females and there were two males¡±


    ¡°How ¨C How did you get out?¡± Miles asked, feeling  unhappy for his woman.


    ¡°I don¡¯t really know, I woke up on our street¡± she added. Hoping they had stopped asking questions and believed her already Vanessa was feeling nervous.   ¡°I am sorry Vanessa, I should have always trusted you¡± Miles said out loud. ¡°I thought you¡¯ve been out seeing some other men just to help you settle this debt.  ¡°How could you?¡±. Forcing tears out of her eyes so it looked like she was sad but it didn¡¯t work. If he knew what she was doing, he would be extra mad at her. Finally, no more questions. Vanessa sighed on her way to the bathroom seeing her lover worried and devastated about what he felt his lover had just gone through.


    My acting skills are top notch, I should quit this and get to Hollywood, she thought as she got into the bathtub. ¡°One day he will know all these but not now.


    ¡°You can head to the shop I¡¯d stay here with her today¡± Miles informed Lance.


    ¡°Thank you son,¡± Lance said with a smile on his face. It was Thursday he had to go for his health check up at the hospital. In six minutes, Lance was already out. Vanessa got out of the bathroom about seventeen minutester. Sipping from her coffee mug, ¡°someone was worried he won¡¯t see his love anymore¡± Vanessa saidughing. Gazing at her beauty, Miles made a heavy throw of her pillow which struck her right in her belly. She took it and started hitting him hard with the pillow. In two minutes, it was a pillow fight and Vanessa was winning this round. So manyughs and hits, it was past an hour already. She fell t on his chest making him ce a kiss on her head. She bit him right on his left nipple in return he tickled her till she lost her breathughing and trying to escape.


    ¡°I love you Vanessa and I am not ready to lose you¡± Miles spilled, staring deep in her eyes. Blushing hard , ¡°I love you too¡± she said with a smile. She was his only family, at least that¡¯s what he has always had said since his rtives had left him alone and moved to another town three years ago. Kissing her lips and making drawings on her back while she leaned on him, ¡°I love the taste, and I want to have it now¡± Vanessa whispered. Thinking she was talking about her favorite ice cream. ¡°You want us to go get some Ice cream?¡±. Pulling his jeans downwards, ¡°I want to have your cream in my mouth¡±. She wanted to make him forget the whole lie she had told. ¡°This was the perfect thing she thought¡±. Twisting her tongue around his cock, she took every inch in making him feel sofortable and good inside of him. Continuing to take every single inch, Vanessa wanted him in her now, she was so wet and her arousal was spread around her whole body.


    ¡°What?¡± asked Miles as he followed Vanessa who was on her feet running as she headed to the kitchen. Her food was already halfway burnt. Miles had lost his urge to fill Vanessa with every inch of his cock. The burning food sent some coughs down their throat. Vanessa had put it out now and clean air filled the room.


    ¡°Okay sir¡±. Miles just ended a call. His attention was needed at the store where he worked. ¡°I¡¯d be leaving for the store now. Please be safe. I don¡¯t want to go around looking for you again,¡± Miles said after he gave her a kiss on her forehead. She nodded a yes to him and he was off.


    7:38pm,


    Vanessa had just woken up. It was a long afternoon nap since she had barely slept these days. It was already eight minutes past eight when she got to Club Nexus.


    ¡°Hello, Hey Miles, are you at Club Nexus with Vanessa? I just saw her go in. She looks really good in that dress. Chris had just called Miles informing him of Vanessa¡¯s whereabouts. ¡°Oh yes, I will be there soon, I had to drop some stuff at the store¡±. Miles responded not wanting to dy talks and create scenes on the phone. ¡°Okay that¡¯s cool, have fun¡±. Chris ended the call. Chris and Miles had been friends in high school. They yed on the same basketball team also.


    ¡°Vanessa at the club!¡±. Finding it hard to believe, his thoughts were cut short as soon as he met his boss on getting to the store.


    Still overst night, she remembered the murmurs she had heard from the room about her. She acted like it didn¡¯t matter and greeted everyone and they all responded well and nicely.


    It was time to get out to the stage but Selma hadn¡¯t shown up yet. They all headed inside and started making money even before Selma had shown up for her regr talks before they had gone out to dance. As usual, attention were on Vanessa and some of the other dancers were losing it with her already.


    ¡°Youe down here thief and meet me in the room¡± Selma ordered Vanessa. Andre just got to the club and had just made a long stare at each pole. ¡°Where was Vanessa? She didn¡¯t show up because ofst night?¡± He thought. He headed over to their room. ¡°Give me my agreed percentage or you will be fired. I can¡¯t start an argument¡± Selma shot these words at Vanessa.


    ¡°I swear he didn¡¯t give me any money,¡± Vanessa replied in a mild tone.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    Hitting her with a p straight to her left cheek, you are FIRED! She said with an angry tone. This little thief got on her nerves. ¡°I warned you not to y with me but you insisted. I would make sure I get every penny I paid you back from you. Oh! That was why you did note to me for a ride home. Thief!


    ¡°She¡¯s right, I didn¡¯t give her any money¡±.

 Chapter 5

    Andre had just got into the strippers room. He would have made a knock on the door but it was wide open.


    ¡°I did not give her any money¡± he said in a very calm tone.


    ¡°Oh, Andre, you think because you like this witch you could cover for her?¡± Selma yelled. ¡°It¡¯s not going to happen until she gives my twelve percent or she¡¯s out!¡±.


    ¡°It is you who might be out¡±. ¡°You are falsely using her, yelling at me and indirectly calling me a liar. Remember, I own this ce and I want whoever I want in it¡±. Andre responded pulling Vanessa out the door with him.


    ¡°If she goes on your nerves or tries to mess things up with you, Let me know ¡± Andre whispered to Vanessa before headed to his room.


    ¡°Hey, Also you are excused for the night. Have fun with your other friends ¡°.  Selma, whose tone was really low now,


    ¡°I made you, you got his attention and you want to make me lose my job, Vanessa be careful of who you are meddling with¡±.


    *****


    ¡°You have not been working well tonight Miles, are you fine?¡± Miles boss, Nick asked. Should he tell a lie and go see if Vanessa was really at the club or he should trust her and continue to wok.


    This troubled him for a minute. ¡°I am very much okay sir, Thanks for the care¡±. he answered before Nick had gone to check on his other employees. Miles had to lie because he felt already made a mistake not trusting her the night earlier and would not want to go to the club, have himself and Vanessa embarrassing publicly. He called her number after he had drop the carton of butter he was carrying.


    ¡°How is your health now babe?¡± he said in his thick manly voice. Everywhere was quiet as she had already headed to one of the store rooms when she saw his call. The sounds getting there were not loud to prove she was in a club and not home. A strong sleeper would have a good rest there.


    ¡°I am fine sweetheart. How is work going?¡± she responded in a sweet but tired tone that she had just faked.


    ¡°Pretty good but hectic¡± he answered. There was no loud music. It was just as silent as her house was. Probably Chris was just ying jokes on him. ¡°I just called to know how you were doing. I love you ¡°.


    ¡°Thanks a lot, I love you too. See you soon. Bye¡± she smiled with a sigh of victory. It was a best idea I called, I would have just embarrassed myself and lost my rtionship.


    *****


    Already on the poles, it wasn¡¯t Vanessa night as it always has been usually. She only seemed to have made just a few dors. People were all over two strippers Stanway and Lucy, spraying them all their hard currencies. ¡°What could they be doing different?¡± Vanessa thought. She got down from the pole she was on, and in a nce she saw them both totally naked, right in front of the whole crowd. People were already making videos of them. It was not a usual thing. The men were wowed. Their bodies made every inch of the men¡¯s cock hard. ¡°This is not how it is meant to be. Why are they doing this? Who gave them these orders?¡± she thought within her head quickly. ¡°Was it because I had taken the spotlights?, remembering the discussion in the roomst night. Wow, that escted quickly. I hope we all don¡¯t end up hating each other.


    ¡°Yes, no more crowd for you¡±. Knowing Vanessa would not go naked in front of the crowd. Selma made those two go naked, gave them the orders and told them she was taking no percentage of their ie that day. She had always had thirty percent. They were fine with the deal and did it right away. ¡°She had better pay me my percent from the ie today. If she needs money she won¡¯t be a thief. She should spend from the money he gave her yesterday, Selma murmured.  This was no longer a fair business. First, Andre refused to pay her, Selma thinks she¡¯s a thief and now she¡¯s no longer earning as she always had did. ¡°I am quitting and heading home, this was a wrong idea¡± she said as she walked to Selma¡¯s office to let her know her decision.


    ¡°Selma! Why are you not being fair? Why do you think of me as a liar and a thief¡±. Selma was shocked. She never thought Vanessa could own a beast tone in her. Not wanting to act small, ¡°Because I know you are a thief and a liar¡± Selma added in her own very loud tone. The two went on exchanging words that were so insultive and disturbing. ¡°I am done here!¡± were thest words Vanessa said as she went out the door. ¡°That¡¯s best for you Witch! Go and nevere back!¡± Selma yelled.


    *****


    Theresa was already waiting outside to attack Vanessa and she just made it really early and easy for her. Not being conscious, pissed, angry and sad, Vanessa was heading home barely noticing anything around her.


    ¡°Put her in the Van and let¡¯s move before anyone sees us¡±. Theresa was talking to the three men she had along with her. She had just hit Vanessa with a log of wood she saw by the roadside. Helpless and unconscious, she was dragged into the ck Mercedes van. ¡°No one


    messes with me and go free. Tie her on the chair, use the tape on her mouth and set fire around her, she should feel the heat she left inside of me. The environment was so hot, even a person in aa might just wake up.


    About two hourster,


    ¡°Help! Help!!¡± Vanessa screamed out as loud as she could. She was grieving from the pain of the hit on her head and heat around her. Two of the men came out with iron rods in the there hand. Perry ¨C dark and with a bodybuilder¡¯s shape, went on to her and tore the tape out of her mouth.   ¡°Ow!¡±, she cried. Trying to kiss her, of course she was pretty and attractive to most men, Vanessa dodged Perry like she had expected it. ¡°Hey! No one is allowed to kiss the prisoner¡±. This voice sounded so familiar but her head in pain couldn¡¯t think straight or it¡¯d keep aching. ¡°Theresa!¡± she screamed with every strength in her.  ¡°Yayyy!, its me¡±. Theresa responded with a wicked smile.


    ****¡±


    ¡°She did what!!¡± asked Andre.


    ¡°She quit. Why are you so bothered? Its not like she mattered here.¡± Selma said making a bad stare at Andre.


    ¡°Get her back tonight and if she doesn¡¯te back with you, you lose your job!!¡±. Andre mmed the door so hard the whole floor went quiet by the shock. Andre had left but there was another phone in the room buzzing. Selma¡¯s murmurs followed. The little witch had left her phone, she woulde for it. After thirty minutes had passed, the unanswered calls were already sixteen and from the same contact saved as My Man Forever with a smiley emoji and a red heart. ¡°It could be her dad, her boyfriend, her brother or maybe a male best friend¡±, she thought. One more call and I would answer it.


    It was past 11pm now, Vanessa was still being tortured by Theresa, Miles and Lance were again looking for Vanessa not knowing this time she had really been kidnapped.


    ¡°Chris said he saw her at the club, I¡¯d head there and check her. She might have bern knocked out by those alcohols.¡± She was a bad drinker. Okay son, I¡¯ll keep calling her phone. It was Lance that has been calling all long.


    ¡°Hello, Where are you? Why do you keep running offte at night?.¡± Some seconds of silence ruled, Selma had just picked the call and it sounded like she was missing really. Selma ended the call and in two minutes she was already by her car.  ¡°Hey ma¡¯am¡±. Miles who had just left the store and wanted to see how Vanessa¡¯s health was doing just got to Club Nexus and stumbled on Selma as she was about to enter her car.


    ¡°Yes? Need my help?¡± she asked


    ¡°Yes please I do. I¡¯m looking for a white slender girl, about this tall ¨C he just demonstrated, blue eyes and blonde hair. She wasst seen here.¡± Miles had just poured all he could think of. Her name is Vanessa Warner.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.

 Chapter 6

    ¡°Vanessa, Vanessa, I¡¯m sorry I¡¯ve not heard of such a person. If she was seen at a club, you could check the other clubs around.¡± Selma said as she hopped into her car. She had promised Vanessa from the very day she started working with her that she would never tell anyone about her, how they are rted or how they even met. ¡°Such a handsome man, he must be her boyfriend. Maybe he can be my next husband¡± Selma thought and smiled as she drove off. Still on the search, ¡°Where on earth could she be? Losing my job because of this witch was not worth it¡±.


    It¡¯s been two hours now and no one hase close to finding her. Miles had visited all the clubs no one had seen her. He had called Chris too, she was nowhere to be found. ¡°Is this how you really want to leave me? Did God already take you¡± Miles kept the thoughts in his head.


    A loud crash sounded. It had just made Miles almost hit his car¡¯s steering with his face. Arge truck had hit just his car and it took out the car lights behind. Before he came out and checked the hit and saw what had hit him, the truck had zoomed off. It was the truck of Vanessa¡¯s kidnappers. They had left the initial hideout. News was getting out that Vanessa was missing and where they were was a calling ce for the cops. They had moved out of town to one of the male kidnappers¡¯ houses. Of course, Vanessa was out, she was not conscious of anything , she couldn¡¯t even say how she got into the truck. In the otherpartments of the van, sweet moans were heard. Perry¡¯s name was called and cried out. He was pounding hard inside of Theresa. She had always wanted to take his cock. They had a marathon sex through out the journey. Perry had being her crush since they met but she always had felt he was not the man she¡¯d be in a rtionship with. Taking his cock definitely could make her rethink that.


    Andre had already made a police report and it was almost known by everyone she was missing. Her dad became sick and tired, he could not manage to go to the coffee shop. His customers were also on the lookout. They were worried. Everyone had always loved Vanessa, she was a good girl. Miles couldn¡¯t drive home, his car wasn¡¯t moving, so he had to sleep in it till the next morning before he got a mechanic.


    ¡°This is the house¡± the policemen had just arrived at Miles¡¯ ce. He wasn¡¯t in. Trey had given them his address. They needed to investigate Vanessa¡¯s . Miles was just parking his car when he saw the number of police at his door. ¡°Could this be because of Vanessa? Mr Lance told me I should go file a report. He didn¡¯t call them on me, did he? Or he doesn¡¯t trust me?¡± Miles felt he was asking himself a lot and hurriedly got down to know why the police were here.


    ¡°Good morning sir Mr Miles¡±. one of the men in uniform just did the greetings.


    ¡°Good morning ¡± Miles responded anxious and strongly bothered by what they would say.


    ¡°We are under investigation for a missing person and you are strongly one of the suspects¡±.


    The officers had just shown their identity cards and search warrants. ¡°You don¡¯t have anyone you know that is missing at the moment?¡±, the handsome looking policeman asked.C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.


    ¡°My girlfriend Vanessa.¡± He yelled as fast as he could. ¡°I was on a look out for her and since I haven¡¯t seen her, I was nning toe file a report at the station today.¡± Miles added.


    ¡°We still have to check inside this house¡±. Miles let them in and after twenty minutes of thorough checking had involved the policemen spilling his coffee. There was no sign of her or a recent visit.


    ¡°We. couldn¡¯t find anything but you are still a suspect and we would need you to follow us to the station to file a report.


    ¡°Who made this initial report please?¡± Miles asked.


    ¡°A young man, I simply can¡¯t recall his name or look but I know it wasn¡¯t her brother because her brother gave us your information and the young man doesn¡¯t seem to know you. ¡± the policeman answered. ¡°Who could this man be and why is he worried about Vanessa¡± Miles thought in his head.


    ¡°Hey, Hey. Are you feeling jelly about the young man?¡±, a policeman had just asked, making the whole other menugh. Miles just grinned a little not wanting topletely ignore them.


    ¡°Omg, I need to put off this phone. The police may be on the look out already and might be tracking her phone. I¡¯d be in a big mess.¡± Selma just turned off Vanessa¡¯s phone and dropped it in one of her bags in the car. ¡°She¡¯s not at home, I don¡¯t know where to look¡± Selma was already frustrated and pretty annoyed. She was already heading for work.


    ¡°Good morning Ms. Selma. You are not allowed into the club. Here is a letter for you¡± the security guard had just handed the letter to her. She didn¡¯t need to check it, she knew she just got fired and it was all that witch¡¯s fault. She just sighed and sighted Andre with a pretty angry face. ¡°BASTARD!¡±. She got into her car and off to her house. Murmurings and Cursing were all that could be heard in her car as she drove home. She was tired and pissed. ¡°You had bettere out and let me have my job back or I¡¯ll find you and kill you¡± Selma kept on murmuring, the curses didn¡¯t end too.


    *****


    ¡°Take the first turn on your left, there is a stair, take the stairs to the next floor, the first room on your right is his ward.¡± The nurse had just exined Lance¡¯s ward to Trey, Miles and one of Lance¡¯s friends, Jon. Lance was rushed down to the hospital from his shop. He slumped while trying to serve a customer. He hit his head hard and had the hot coffee spill over his hands leaving it arge burn scar. He was already being treated and tests were carried out on him. He still needs to be at the hospital for a week. Trey cried out ¡°when will all these problems stop? I¡¯m tired already.¡± ¡°Everything would be fine, I promise. You are not in this alone¡± Miles offered and left a smile on Trey¡¯s face. ¡°I should go get some food for him.. I¡¯ll be right back.¡±


    Trey just left the hospital to get some meals for Lance. Vanessa and her kidnappers had just arrived in the house. She was tied up as usual. ¡°Where are we? Why did you move?¡± She just gained consciousness and threw the questions as she cried out. ¡°Someone please cover that girl¡¯s mouth¡± Theresa said not wanting to answer any of her questions. ¡°You will rot in j-¡± she couldn¡¯t finish her statement before Perry had her mouth sealed. ¡°Give her some nice meal by noon,¡± Theresa said. ¡°I need to sleep, I just had some good sex.¡± ¡°My cock is a nice meal you know ¡± Perry whispered into Vanessa¡¯s ear before he went to the bathroom.


    ¡°Emergency! Emergency!! He is losing blood. Get the doctors ready. Call his rtives or friends you can reach out to. Inform the police also.

 Chapter 7

    There was rush and push. A boy was losing too much blood. ¡°Who could it be? What could have happened to him?¡± people in the hospital thought.


    ¡°You have a visitor sir¡±. A guard just informed Andre that someone needed his attention.


    ¡°Who did the person say he or she is?¡± Andre asked.


    ¡°She said an old friend,¡± the guard responded.


    ¡°A female?¡± Let her in. Andre ordered. He had just woken up from his sleep. His house was big and luxurious. Thedy got in a few minutes after Andre had requested.


    *****


    ¡°Surprise!!!¡±. The Lady said out loud.


    ¡°What!! How, How- , How did you find me? Who gave you my address?¡± Andre said already disgusted by her presence.


    ¡°Stop it man. Are you not happy to see me?¡± she asked. His hands were over his face. The witch followed him to this town.


    ¡°Where is the restroom Andre?¡± she asked.


    Not wanting to make a scene, he pointed to the visitor¡¯s restroom. ¡°You have always had nice houses, just need us to fill it with kids¡± she smiled as she headed for the bathroom. Gosh, she irritated him much after that statement.


    ¡°Where is that phone? I need to call my sister. She would be responsible for this¡±. He said out loud. He began searching the whole room. After two minutes, he couldn¡¯t find it.


    ¡°Looking for these?¡±, she said as she unted his phone. She really just went to the restroom so she could check his phone. He never changes his phone unlock pin.


    ¡°What the hell! How did you-?!¡± he shouted, fuming his face.


    ¡°Well the police called you, you should call them soon, it seemed important¡±. She dropped his phone as she went to look for the kitchen. She hasn¡¯t had a good meal since the flight.


    *****


    ¡°It¡¯s been an hour and half, Trey is not back with any food yet¡±. Miles was talking to Mr. Lance¡¯s friend.  ¡°I¡¯d go look after him please watch him before I¡¯m back at least. Miles set out.


    ¡°That is the man I saw with him earlier¡±. One of the receptionists had just informed the doctor.


    ¡°Young man, can we talk in my office please?¡± The Doctor had approached Miles.


    ¡°Sure, let¡¯s go,¡± Miles offered.


    ¡°A young boy was seen with you when you got into the hospital. Do you know his whereabouts at the moment?¡±, the doctor asked calmly.


    ¡°¡­ hmm, Yes Doctor. He was just out to get his sick Father some food. Is there any problem?¡± Miles asked in a mild tone.


    ¡°Not really. Please follow me¡±. Miles followed the doctor. The ward door said ¡°EMERGENCY¡±.


    ¡°Why are we here?¡± Miles was scared already but needed to act like a man.


    ¡°What!!!¡±


    ¡°How did this happen Doctor?¡±. Miles was almost running tears in his eyes. Trey¡¯s head was bandaged. He wore a huge tear on his leg and it was stitched already. He waspletely unconscious of his environment.


    ¡°Reports said he was attacked by some men but they couldn¡¯t get any of them. He bled so much and has lost blood. There is no blood in our bank that matches his at the moment. He needs a donor.¡± he had informed Miles. Miles just ced his forehead on the wall, mming and hitting the wall simultaneously. ¡°His Dad is sick, his sister is missing and now he is injured. What is all these going on?¡±


    ¡°Ah, I got it now. The people his father owes are after them.


    ¡°How are we going to get a donor now or blood? His mother iste.¡± Miles asked.


    ¡°It would cost a lot to get blood down here as soon as possible. We have to act fast¡± the doctor requested.


    ¡°How much Doctor?¡± Miles responded.


    ¡°That would be four thousand dors including the treatment too¡± the doctor answered.


    ¡°Okay i will make the payment now. Please get the blood down here¡± Miles said as he headed to pay the money. It was a huge sum. He was going to give the money to Vanessa to help her with the debt.


    ¡°I will get out of this ce soon¡±. Vanessa thought. She had only one way. It was Perry.


    *****


    Arriving at the police station,


    ¡°I missed your calls,¡± Andre said.


    ¡°There was a witness on Vanessa¡¯s missing. The anonymous man wrote to us and said your worker Theresa at the club was found with three other men that night she went missing.  And they had put Vanessa in a truck after hitting her on the head.¡± the policeman informed him.


    ¡°When was thest time you saw her around the club or in town?¡± the man asked.


    ¡°I¡¯ve not, but I know someone who might.¡± He was talking about Selma. He headed out to Selma¡¯s but decided to check his visitor at home first.


    *****


    It¡¯s been two hours now, the blood has just arrived. And the surgery would take ce in twenty minutes. Miles and Jon were looking after Lance but couldn¡¯t inform him yet. Miles had not heard from the police yet. ¡°I will visit the police tomorrow morning. I have to stay here all night to check on them. You can go home sir¡± speaking to Jon, he was calling Vanessa¡¯s number but this time it was switched off.


    *****


    Andre just got to his house,


    ¡°What is it you want from me Lydia?¡± Andre asked. ¡°Why on earth are you here?¡±. He asked again but she did not respond. She just feasted on the meal in front of her and had arge chunk of food in her mouth. Lydia was Andre¡¯s ex girlfriend. He wasn¡¯t so much interested in her anymore so he ended the rtionship but she won¡¯t stop bugging him. Thest time they met she made him have sex with her but he didn¡¯t want to be around her anymore.


    ¡°Well, I brought you a gift that¡¯s why I¡¯m here¡± Lydia said after his murmurs.


    ¡°It¡¯s not my birthday, I have no anniversary with you. Why is there a gift?¡± He asked.


    ¡°Would you quit being a baby and listen!¡± she was already pissed.


    ¡°I am carrying your child! Andre¡± she said, almost losing her voice. He was murmuring but in a moment everywhere was silent.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°What?!, Howe?!¡±, Andre was shocked but surprisingly he was happy but would never allow her to see it.


    ¡°How old is the child? How are you sure its my child?!¡± He asked.


    ¡°I am four months pregnant and I want to raise my child with its father,¡± she added.


    ¡°You can¡¯t be here, go back to Italy and stay with my family¡±. He responded by walking out on her. Shouting out loud, ¡°I won¡¯t let you do that to me!. Andre! Andre!! Come back here.¡± She was already crying. She felt pain and bitterness. Back in his car, Andre headed for Selma¡¯s house after calling to inform her he was on his way there. The pregnant woman was on his mind throughout his journey.


    *****


    Waiting for Theresa and Derek ¨C one of her kidnappers to drive off. Vanessa had her n to escape.


    ¡°Hey Perry, can I use the bathroom?¡± Vanessa asked, seeing her kidnapper entering the room.


    ¡°Sure¡±, he set her hands and legs free. ¡°Hey what¡¯s going on?¡± he asked as Vanessa was pushing him towards the wall.


    ¡°Shhhh!!!¡± she said quietly cing her finger on his lip in a seductive manner. He oozed alcohol and he seemed pretty drunk. It was them alone at home. She kissed him. It really gave him a hard-on.


    ¡°Whoa, that was so fast.¡± she thought. Besides it was not a kiss on the lip, it came on his neck. She knew she had him already. She gave him more kisses on the neck. As soon as he pulled her closely to kiss her on the lips, she hit him on his head with a stick she had lifted while pushing him. He fell, with a bleeding nose he was unconscious and could barely attack. She hit him again and again. With the fear of killing him, she stopped.


    She tied him with the rope they had used on her, picked the keys and left the house as soon as possible. Theresa and Derek were back early. She was still in the building.


    ¡°Who mmed the door that hard?¡± Derek and Theresa both thought.


    ¡°Lock the gate. I¡¯d go through the front door, you go through the back door¡±. Theresa ordered.

 Chapter 8

    It¡¯s been twenty eight minutes of searching now and there was so sign of an intruder. Theresa and Derek were almost at full ease.


    ¡°The girl! The girl!!¡± Derek shouted.


    He had seen her run past the window and she was headed for the main gate. She knew he had seen her.


    ¡°Should I turn myself back in or, or-?¡± she thought to herself. Her heart was beating so fast.


    ¡°Stop her!¡± Theresa shouted.


    ¡°How on earth did she get out?¡± Theresa said fuming. She was so pissed and scared. If Vanessa gets out, she is going to be in trouble.

    (knocks on the ck painted oak door at Selma¡¯s house)


    ¡°Hey! Hey!!¡±. Andre was calling out on Selma as he kept on knocking at her door. It¡¯s been eight minutes now. She¡¯s not answering any of his calls and has not had the door opened yet.


    ¡°Told this b**ch I wasing over¡± Andre out in a loud tone. He was pretty angry. He hates his time being wasted. Ladies did not seem to always get that with time. Andre anddies had always been less of a fairytale but more of a nightmare. His mother and sisters were no exception. Andre came from a family of six. His parents and his three sisters. He was the second child and the only male. Mr Federico Alexander (II) was his dad and one of the strongest billionaires in Italy. He was shot dead two years after Andre had justpleted college. It was a bloody battle. He got shot by his colleague at the Casino in his club, initially Club Mezos now The Nexus.


    Andre had only had a long rtionship once a d itsted eighteen months which was with Lydia and now the Miss is carrying his child. He had always been a flirt, lustful motherfucking son of a b**ch. He was only attracted to the bodies of women, a trait he got from his father. The whole love drama wasn¡¯t his. Just always wanteddies for his pleasure and that was it. Lydia managed to change that but it onlysted eighteen months. ¡°Could Vanessa unlock his full potential of finally falling full in love with someone?¡±, a thought had now been living rent free in his head.


    ¡°Vrooooom!!!!¡±


    Selma just drove in. She went to the bank and then the store to get some groceries.


    ¡°¡­ hmm Hey sorry I had you dyed¡± Selma said apologetically.


    ¡°You could have answered your calls at least¡± he answered.


    ¡°Silly me, I left my phone back in the house¡± she responded as she unlocked the door and with her one push, they were in. Her house was pretty nice. She had invested really well in the interior designs. The chairs wore a cream look and the walls were full of pretty paintings.


    ¡°Nice house you got¡± Andre just had topliment.


    *****


    It¡¯s been hours now, the surgery on Trey had been carried out and was already healing pretty good as the doctor had said. Lance, on the other hand, was having much more tough time.


    ¡°He would need surgery. Several tests had been run on him. It is quite an expensive surgical journey I must inform you¡±, the doctor told Miles and Jon as he inserted one of those long needles into Lance¡¯s arm. It was a pain relief injection.


    ¡°If you want to know more about the surgery, you cane to my office in three hours from now. You should let him rest too. You also would need rest young man¡±. The doctor added as he left them all in the room. The passage of blood already cost him all he had. He was going to ignore the doctor and now meet him in the office.


    *****


    ¡°Do you know why he has not been at work today?¡± Nick asked Miles¡¯ coworker. Covering for him,


    ¡°He dropped a letter, he had an appointment with the hospital. He should be back tomorrow I guess. That¡¯s if he is not being held in admission at the hospital.¡± the young man responded. Miles had already called him and they had all that set up when they talked.


    ¡°Do you know which hospital?. I want to check on my employee of the month.¡± Nick asked again.


    ¡°I don¡¯t know sir,¡± Ben answered.


    ¡°Okay fine. I¡¯d ce a callter¡± Nick said before he left the store.


    ¡°Hey Bud, Nick had just asked after you. The n worked out well only that he said he wants to know the hospital you are in. I let him know I did not know the hospital¡¯s name. I hope you are good and how is your girl¡¯s family?. Have you gotten the location of Vanessa now?.¡±


    Ben has just texted his buddy Miles on Facebook.


    ¡°Really¡­ Employee of the month again!! I am basically doing better than he does. We work at the same position in this store.¡± Ben thought.


    Miles was on his way to win the employee of the month for the ninth time, having just spent just thirteen months working at the store. The award had alwayse with a five hundred dors cash reward and Miles always gave his coworker two hundred dors anytime he won. Ben on his own, won only once and forgot his coworker totally and spent it all on gambling.


    *****


    ¡°I need to go home so I can charge my phone, I am expecting messages or calls from work¡±. Miles checked on Lance and Trey one more time and left for his house. He wanted the rest, the doctor said so badly. After getting gas in his car, in thirty three minutes approximately, he got home and fell t on his couch. It had a soft texture and it was well designed. After rxing for two to three minutes, about to plug in his phone charger, arge amount of electricity sparked. He grabbed a stool and went on to check it.

    ¡°Bastard¡±. Theresa screamed as she saw Perry tied down by a not so strong female.


    ¡°You tried sleeping with the prisoner right?¡± she asked as she tore the tape on his mouth open.


    ¡°Ouch! He screamed. ¡°She, she-, I was drunk she told me she wanted to make use of the rest room so I let her loose¡±. He said feeling weak.


    ¡°Where is she now?¡± Perry asked Theresa, who was already out of the room. He chased after her.


    ¡°Gotcha!¡± A smiling and powerful Derek held onto Vanessa¡¯s other leg as she was fully over the fence of the house. She was a good climber. He was really surprised. Not wanting to get hurt, she started climbing down to him and gave up.


    ¡°Good girl,e down here¡±. His face irritated her. She wanted to kick it so bad.


    Throwing three big ps to her cheek, Theresa warned Vanessa with a pointy finger.


    ¡°The next time you try escaping, I¡¯d have you killed and your body will be Roy¡¯s. Roy was the full German Shepherd dog breed Theresa had owned since she was ten. It was her tenth year birthday gift. Tears flew down Vanessa¡¯s eyes, she was worried, sick and sad. Imagining all what her family including Miles, he was family now, were going through. She doesn¡¯t know they are hospitalized at the moment.


    ¡°Let me go please, I¡¯ve quit The NEXUS. I had an argument with Selma. I¡¯m gone please just let me be. I won¡¯t report you to the police or anyone I promise.¡± Vanessa begged as hard as she could. Her eyes were so red and bitter.


    *****


    ¡°Do you by any means know of Theresa¡¯s location?¡± Andre asked Selma.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    ¡°Why are you asking me this?. She was your employee, you could go check the staff documents, her files are there. I am no longer your staff, remember.¡± Selma responded but it got Andre so angry.


    ¡°Are you going to tell me? or I would make everyone know you caused all this!¡± He asked.


    ¡°I do know her house¡± Selma answered making a silly eye contact with her ex boss.


    ¡°She¡¯s a main suspect in Vanessa¡¯s disappearance. A witness saw Vanessast with her and she was helpless¡±. Andre added.


    Selma was not taking any of that in, she was rubbing on Andre in a seductive manner, she wanted to have him inside of her. She had always been a whore, but then he nodded in disagreement. As soon as she let her gown loose, Andre was as lustful as he had always been with the female gender.

 Chapter 9

    Hours passed, Andre and Selma who seemed to have undergone what should be termed a marathon sex were not even ready to stop yet. Andre, very strong and active when ites to this and he wasn¡¯t feeling any weaker.


    ¡°I want to fill my cock in your mouth, take it all in baby¡± Andre said.


    ¡°One condition. ¡± Selma responded in a sh.


    ¡°What¡¯s that?¡± questioned Andre.


    ¡°I will get my job back if we find the girl or not,¡± Selma ordered.


    *****


    ¡°This is a huge mess. I can¡¯t fix this myself.¡± Miles thought. He called the electrician toe over and it only took him seven minutes to get there.


    ¡°The power cables are weak, it caused the spark¡±, the electrician informed him.


    ¡°Okay, just please help me fix it¡± Miles answered.


    Twelve minutester, the lights were on and back to normal. Immediately, he plugged in his charger and his phone battery read three percent.


    ¡°How much do I pay you?¡± Miles asked.


    ¡°That would be twenty sir¡± the electrician responded. Miles went for his huge purse and handed him a twenty dor note.  ¡°Thank you sir¡±.


    The electrician left in his cute ride. It was actually a motorbike.


    *****


    ¡°You have always not been trusted really¡±   Theresa said.


    ¡°Tie them both up, till I decide what to do with them¡± she added. Derek and Smith held and tried to tie up Vanessa and Perry but they just couldn¡¯t. Of course, they were fully conscious.


    ¡°You are my friend, I can¡¯t let you end this way, just behave and act well. We would all. get out of here soon. Tell your crush too.¡± Derek whispered to Perry. Without much hesitation, Perry allowed himself to be tied up alongside Vanessa. He told her what Derek had said. Smith was also in support. ¡°Theresa doesn¡¯t know what is about to hit her.¡± Smith added. Silence ruled in the room for about ten minutes, but it was not aplete one. Vanessa was crying hard. She¡¯s barely had a nice meal, sleep and most importantly she misses her family.


    ¡°Psst, psst¡±. Perry was trying to call her.


    ¡°I promise, you will be out soon. Stop crying please¡±. He added. Soon enough, she already had her tears stopped.


    ¡°I just really miss my family, ¡± she said.


    ¡°I understand how you feel?¡± he said in a mild tone.


    ¡°First, how did you meet Theresa?¡± Perry asked.


    *****


    ¡°You want your job back?, then suck me!¡± Andre yelled. That was simply a yes signal, but he wouldn¡¯t just be damn straight forward with his answers especially to her or people that pisses him off trying to take advantage of what he wants in return. Selma kissed him from his neck down. She gave him a deep kiss and bite to his neck. His body got goosebumps. It triggered his hormones. He loved it. She held his cock and from his balls, she fisted the pair in the mouth filling the sac with a lot of saliva. Damn, she was so perfect in this. She licked his cock to the head and started to fit it all in her mouth.


    ¡°Yes, yes, take it all¡± Andre shouted releasing a loud moan. She almost made hime over her face. They were both loving it. She continued sucking on him.


    ¡°What! What the f**k!¡±. A man just got into the house and with a loud voice screamed.


    ¡°Its not what you think!¡± Selma said. Tears were about gushing down her eyes. Her fianc¨¦ just got to her house with flowers and choctes. He was going to tell her their wedding woulde up in ten days time. Andre was still on the bed smiling and jerking himself off, he really need toe. Selma got on her dress and chased down her man. But, Fred wasn¡¯t buying of that. He got into his car and drove off. Selma was down and devastated. She¡¯s lost what she had held for six years.C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Hey, you are not done with what I asked. I still need toe or you are loveless and jobless.¡± Andre said and wore a wicked smile. He was being a jerk. She hasn¡¯t hated anyone as she does hate him at the moment.


    *****


    There were no calls or messages. ¡°This is weird and surprising¡±. Miles thought. No one texted him or called him from work. He had just put his cooking skills to the test and made him a recipe for chicken breast. He also had a ss of Vodka, what else from an alcohol lover. It waste at night. I¡¯d visit the police station tomorrow. Then have some food for the Warners. Finally, I¡¯d head to the store. In twelve minutes, the hungry man had eaten his meal but there were still liquids in his ss. He turned on his TV set and tuned in for a ser match. It was a UEFA champions league night. Manchester city and FC Barcelona were up against each other in the semi finals. He had always been a FC Barcelona fan since he was young. He even one time had a dream he was a footballer there ying alongside his favorite yer Lionel Messi.


    *****


    Andre had gotten all dressed up and ready to go meet the witch he left at home. She had been ringing his phone for the past hour but he didn¡¯t answer any of her calls or reply to her texts.


    ¡°Yeah thanks, I¡¯d check the employee¡¯s file for her address. I know you won¡¯t give me cause you¡¯re mad over some boyfriend guy.¡± Andre said to Selma as he waved a bye to her and left. Selma was feeling dead inside. She has never been so bad all her life. Where would she start from?. Now she¡¯s jobless too.  ¡°I would head to him tonight, he would be at his sister¡¯s.¡± she thought.


    *****


    ¡°Theresa would be going out with some men tonight. It was a perfect time to help Perry and Vanessa escape.¡± Derek thought. He went on to Smith and informed him.


    ¡°She would want you to drive her, you know.¡± Smith said. This was true. She always liked Derek¡¯s driving. It was like he was born with a car steering.


    ¡°She wouldn¡¯t want a sick me to drive her.¡± Derek responded.


    ¡°Now that is a ssic man¡¯s way of thinking,¡± Smith answered,ughing at his statement.


    ¡°In about forty five minutes, she would be set. Go inform Vanessa and Perry about this and they should be prepared¡±. Derek ordered.


    *****


    ¡°We met at work.¡± Vanessa told Perry.


    ¡°Work?, you do know Theresa¡¯s only work is being a stripper.¡± Perry responded.


    ¡°Yes I do know and it¡¯s what I do also.¡± Vanessa answered.


    Wearing a shocked face, Smith just got in. Having been informed of the news, they both felt at ease. Perry totally forgot about his questions and Vanessa was happy he did. She did not want to see any more of his shocking face. ¡°It looked ugly and weird,¡± she thought.


    ¡°I told you we would get out of here¡±. Perry said. It was her time to ask questions.


    ¡°Why are you here stuck with some little girl?¡±- she was talking about Theresa. Vanessa asked.


    He was about to answer when she got in,


    ¡°Awwn, no babies yet?¡± she asked, making an adorable face.


    ¡°I was expecting to see triplets now.¡± Theresa added before she hissed and mmed the door at them. It was a signal she was already dressed and soon set to leave.


    ¡°She will be leaving soon. Am I right?¡± asked Vanessa.


    ¡°Yes soon I hope. Feels like it¡¯s taking forever.¡± He responded.


    ¡°I wonder how they have it nned to help us escape from here.¡± Vanessa thought.


    The bastard Perry was being lustful, her shirt¡¯s button just got loose exposing her cleavages. His eyes were fisted on her breasts. It was like he wanted to rip them off.

 Chapter 10

    Andre was on his way home in his Mercedes Benz car. ¡°I have never seen Selma this passionate about something or someone. It¡¯s like he was meant for her.¡± He thought. His car tire went t just a few distance from his house.


    ¡°Hey Warner, I need a new tire as soon as possible. I¡¯m at the very second bus stop to my house¡±. Andre told him as he ended the call. No, this was not a Warner from Vanessa family. It was his mechanic¡¯s first name.  ¡°Hey, we are even. Selma took my love to be away, he meant Vanessa and I took her husband to be¡±. He thought immediately he recalled Vanessa was a Warner. In a few minutes, Mr. Warner would be here.


    *****


    ¡°She¡¯s gone¡±. Perry said as he could hear the sound of the car she was going with.


    ¡°I¡¯ve always told you, we will be free soon,¡± he said, smiling at Vanessa. She was not feeling any of that anymore. She doesn¡¯t really trust these men and more is that what if Theresaes back for her.  ¡°Should I report her as soon as I am out or-?¡± Vanessa thought quietly until Derek flew in and started to make them loose. It took some series of cutting but in a few minutes, they were free.


    ¡°Derek, Derek. A word please¡±. Perry asked Derek to talk to him in private or at least in a way Vanessa can¡¯t hear them.


    With whispers ,


    ¡°Are we going to let her go like that?¡± Perry asked.


    ¡°I thought of it too, it¡¯ste. We shouldn¡¯t let her leave now. We would move to my uncle¡¯s ce for the night. Tomorrow she can leave to her family.¡± Derek answered.


    ¡°Man, don¡¯t be so dumb. I am not talking about that. Can¡¯t you see her body?. Those sexy b**bs and a**. We want a taste right?¡± Perry asked.


    ¡°Oh yes, I want to have a taste of her,¡± Derek replied.


    ¡°Now that¡¯s my man¡±. Perry responded, giving him a wicked smile.

    Miles was asleep till a huge bang was on his door, woke him up. FC Barcelona lost the match four nil.


    ¡°Hey, it¡¯ste. Who is hitting my door?¡± he asked in his sleepy deep voice as he walked to the door. As he opened the door, ady walked in and she hugged him till they were both on his couch.


    *****


    ¡°Hey witch! Lydia!!¡± Andre yelled. He just got home and wanted to check on his child, not the mother though. She was nowhere to be found. He checked her in his bedroom. Her stuff was gone.  It was not only that. His jewelry, diamonds, golds , some clothes and items were missing from the house. ¡°She has not stolen them and ran away with his child, has she?¡±, the young man thought.


    He needed a drink, probably a wine.


    ¡°What!¡± he eximed.


    His fridge was empty, even the wine rack. Everything was all gone.  ¡°What the f**k happened here?¡± He shouted out loud again. His guards were missing too. The only untouched thing was his safe. He had over seven hundred thousand dors in it. It would take a bomb to crack it. At least that was what he said since it was made of Titanium. He was already calling Lydia.


    *****


    ¡°Wow , this is what a party should always be like¡± the extravagant Theresa yelled as she continued to gulp down the exotic drinks on her table. She was out with some young men who were rich but with illegal businesses. Drug and cocaine dealers. Some are even robbers and kidnappers. But she didn¡¯t care at all. Smith offered to wait in the car in case there was an emergency but he had a n. After some minutes, he drove back home to help Vanessa and Perry escape, leaving Theresa back. If she gets to know, she would be extra mad at him. Maybe have him killed who knows.


    *****


    ¡°She¡¯s getting away! After her!¡±. Perry and Derek started chasing down Vanessa. She must have eavesdropped and now she¡¯s heading for safety. She never trusted them. She sprinted so hard, you would think she was an Olympian.


    ¡°Go faster! Faster!¡± the man shouted at his driver.


    ¡°Hey girl,e in, those men are catching up on you¡±. he said to Vanessa. She hopped in like he was no stranger to her. Perry and his friend left to the ground in disappointment and anger. Theresa would have them killed. They had to be away from her for good. Smith just arrived and saw them from afar. They told him what happened and let him know their next step. They left and ran away. The car was not left behind. They will sell  it for thirty thousand dors and share the profit equally. Theresa had trusted Derek always, so all her documents were with him.


    *****


    Hands her a bottle of water,


    ¡°What are you doing out thiste miss?¡± the mystery man or her helper asked. She was still gasping for air. In one minute, she already had two bottles of water.


    ¡°I, I -, I was kidnapped¡± Vanessa said as she slumped and fainted in the car.


    ¡°To the hospital now!¡± he ordered his driver again.


    *****


    It was morning, Andre was drunk, dead and helpless. He lost a little but he felt he had been shot. A message just got into his phone.


    ¡°Hey baby, it was a great party at your house. I am sorry we ran out of invites. The next one will be in hell cause that¡¯s definitely where you are ending. If you think you have a child, well NO YOU DON¡¯T, it was a fake pregnancy strap. I just needed to treat you like how you have treated me. You¡¯ve got some nice golds and stuff. Thanks a lot, my prince charming. Hope your c**k gets more sucked often.


    ¡°What!! Lydia did this!¡± He shouted as loud as he could.


    ¡°This battle is not over!¡± He said mming the door behind him and hitting the wall continuously.

    His phone was ringing and as he stretched to get it, his eye lids shot wide open. He just had sex overnight with some mystery girl. He looked at her face and shouted in disbelief.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    ¡°I know thisdy!. What have I done?¡±


    ¡°She- , she was the one I met at the club for Vanessa.¡± He thought. Well, he was right. Both he and Selma were drunkst night. Selma wanted to visit him, she got his address but no one really knows how.


    ¡°Hey, hey¡±. He was waking Selma up, but she didn¡¯t seem like she wanted to get off the bed.


    ¡°Why are you here?, Why did you make me have sex with you?¡± he yelled at her.


    ¡°Hey take it easy, it was not like only I enjoyed it here. So stop being mean. You should have gotten me hot coffee instead. Maybe that is why Vanessa is seeing other men at the club and you are stuck here being loyal. You had better man up.¡± she answered.


    ¡°Vanessa what?!¡± he screamed in disbelief.


    ¡°I thought you said you didn¡¯t know who she was.¡± He asked.


    *****


    ¡°Doctor, how is she doing now?¡± the man asked.


    ¡°She¡¯s responding to treatment but I feel she has been subjected to hardbor, maltreatment and malnutrition. She will get better sir.¡± the doctor responded.


    ¡°If she needs anything, please just let me know,¡± the man answered.

    ¡°Doctor, I have received the man¡¯s payment for thedy. What should I register his name as?¡± One of the nurses asked.


    His name is Mr. Lorenzo De Steffano.

 Chapter 11

    Fierce in action but friendly by heart.


    Mr. Lorenzo De Steffano is an Italian billionaire who owns severalpanies, hotels and businesses. It was his second visit to the town.


    ¡°Asher!¡±Lorenzo calls out to his son.


    ¡°Dad, I¡¯ll be with you soon. I just want to get some clothes on¡±, Asher responded. He was Lorenzo¡¯s only living child. His siblings were killed in a ne crash traveling to Japan after their father asked them not to. It was a bitter experience for his family. Asher was his third child. His wife, Helen was very much alive but never really stayed with the family. She spent time touring. Currently, she is in Brazil having a fun time.


    The young man came out of his room wearing a silk blue shirt that wore a Balenciaga brandbel and a pair of white Nike Air Jordans. He was about to go out with his friends.


    The doctor had called Lorenzo and informed him that Vanessa was fine and she could be picked up now.


    ¡°Where are you heading to son?¡± Lorenzo asked. It was sixteen minutes past noon time.


    ¡°The boys and I are going to party. It¡¯s Jay¡¯s birthday¡±, Asher answered.


    ¡°Well you might have a dy¡±, Lorenzo said.


    ¡°What¡¯s that pop?¡± Asher asked.


    ¡°There is a youngdy I helped yesterday from some kidnappers. She¡¯s at the hospital. Help get her here. She¡¯s a very prettydy. Get her some nice outfits too. Start going, so you won¡¯t run toote for your party¡±, Lorenzo ordered.


    Asher was already two hours early for the party so there was much time to do what his Dad wanted.


    *****


    The town, Beverly Hills, was a big town. ¡°Vanessa could be anywhere in this town¡±, Andre thought.


    Things were all fine at the club. Andre just got in and started searching for Theresa¡¯s file so he could get her address at least.


    ¡°Fire! Fire!! Fire!!!¡± , the security guards at the club shouted making sure everyone in the building got out safe. The fire started on the second floor and its on the third floor now. Fire extinguishers were helping but it wasn¡¯t just enough. Items and properties of the club were burnt and some were still burning. The firefighters were seven minutes away. Andre was still in the building, a huge table fell on his ankle and had his bone broken. He also broke his arm. Andre was in pain, scars and burns were all over him.


    ¡°Carry him, go! , go!!. The fire fighters had Mr Andre carried. He was put into a bus and rushed down to the hospital, despite first aid treatment being administered in the bus.


    *****


    ¡°You should have left¡± Miles told Selma. He just got back from work. Selma had opened up to him about Vanessa. She told him that Vanessa and herself were close friends. She said she couldn¡¯t just talk about her when he first asked since she didn¡¯t know who he was. Miles opened up to her about he and Vanessa¡¯s rtionship.


    ¡°Well yes. Vanessa took my job and in return I¡¯ll take her man¡± Selma said.


    ¡°Hey, what do you mean?¡± He asked. ¡°And no one is taking her from me or either way¡±, he added.


    ¡°You have a girlfriend, you don¡¯t know her job and you just f**ked some girl and im you love her. That¡¯s sh*t man¡±. Selma answered as she mmed the door and left. She just wants to haunt people and spoil their rtionships since hers is gone. Fred didn¡¯t allow her to meet up with him anymore.


    *****


    ¡°A call has been ced to his family about the incident¡±, the club¡¯s secretary informed the police.


    ¡°What was the cause of the fire?¡± asked one of the media personnel present.


    ¡°It started on the second floor in the kitchen, it might have been a gas explosion. I¡¯m really not sure what happened¡±, one of the security guards answered. It was obviously a big loss for CLUB NEXUS but a moment of profit for other clubs in the town.


    *****


    ¡°Hey, please I want  to pick up the patient Mr Lorenzo dropped herest night¡±, Asher was speaking to one of the nurses. She was clearly just gazing at such a handsome creature. His smile could get anydy aroused. His body and scent were absolute turn ons. In high school and college, he was everydy¡¯s dream.


    ¡°Yes, yes. Thedy she¡¯s in ward 867¡±, the nurse answered.


    ¡°Okay thanks¡± he smiled as he went to the room.


    ¡°She must be his girlfriend or wife¡±. The nurses whispered to one another as he was going to the room.


    ¡°Never!!!, he is mine. I would talk to him when he is out and ask for his number. Y¡¯all will see.¡± One of the nurses said out loud. They allughed as they resumed their duties.


    *****


    ¡°Hey¡± Asher said, sighting a beauty.


    ¡°OMG! She¡¯s a pretty princess¡± he thought.


    ¡°Hi,¡± Vanessa answered. She just woke up from her long nap and really needed something to eat.


    ¡°Hello, my name is Asher. The man that helped youst night, asked me to pick you up.¡± He said in his deep masculine tone.


    Weak but already feeling aroused, Vanessa was smiling at the handsome man angel that hade to get her.


    ¡°Okay thank you¡±. She answered.


    They both smiled as he helped her get off the bed.


    ¡°We should grab some food and change your clothes. I have a ce to be so please let¡¯s try to be fast.¡± Asher said calmly. She literally didn¡¯t want to let go of his hands, but the stare from one of the nurses scared her and quickly she swung the hand off. Asher held her hand back and she smiled hard.


    *****


    Miles was deep in thought about what Selma had said to him on being a sh*t boyfriend. He got his coat on and headed to the police station. His girlfriend¡¯s brother, Trey, was now better and could walk around. Trey visited Lance in his ward and exined what happened to him. Trey was attacked by some boys whom his friend had bullied and beaten days ago. They felt since Trey was with them  that day, he was among those who had him beaten up. It was not Andre¡¯s men like Miles thought.


    *****


    ¡°We¡¯ve got the location of your girlfriend¡±, the policeman said.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    Miles had just arrived at the police station and he was with Vanessa¡¯s phone. Selma had dropped it off with him at least to clear herself off the suspect list. That was actually why she went to his ce, she just got there drunk and wanted revenge on Vanessa.


    ¡°Oh wow that¡¯s great¡± Miles yelled in relief.


    ¡°We will be heading there shortly. It¡¯s out of town¡±, the policeman added.


    ¡°Omg¡­ I just hope she¡¯s safe and fine¡± Miles said with guilt filled in his heart.


    *****


    ¡°Thanks for the meal sir¡±, Vanessa said.


    ¡°Hey it¡¯s Asher and you are wee¡±, the young man said and gave her a smile which released a lot of goosebumps on her skin. It was like she was screaming inside. His smile was really gorgeous. Just a few minutester, Vanessa wore a moody look.


    ¡°You aren¡¯t eating anymore? You look sad¡±, Asher asked.


    ¡°I , I just miss my family. It¡¯s been days.¡± Vanessa answered. She started to narrate her kidnap and how she got out to where Mr Lorenzo helps her out. Suddenly, a call came in. It was his friends. He knew he already ran toote for the party. Asher exined to Vanessa why he was in such a hurry and thought.


    ¡°Would you love to go to the party with me?¡± Asher asked.


    ¡°Yes I would, but¡± Vanessa was speaking then he bursted in, ¡°But you want to go home¡±.


    She nodded in agreement.


    ¡°I understand. A party next time?¡± he asked.


    ¡°Deal¡± she answered.


    He drove her to his father¡¯s house and knew his Dad would take it up from there. He gave her his phone number card so she could at least ce a call to him when she was home. He still did not open up to her that he was Lorenzo¡¯s son.

 Chapter 12

    It was a thirty eight minutes drive, but they were finally at his house.


    ¡°Hey, where¡¯s Mr Lorenzo?¡± Asher asked the maid.


    ¡°He went to the bathroom. He asked me to prepare a meal for the guest you were bringing sir¡±, the maid answered.


    ¡°Would you still want a meal?¡± Asher asked Vanessa.


    ¡°I¡¯m fine, thank you¡± Vanessa responded with a smile.


    ¡°Pack it up. She¡¯d take it when she¡¯s going home¡±, Asher ordered.


    Vanessa was about to refuse but he insisted. Not wanting to cause a scene, she epted. Mr Lorenzo took about twelve minutes but he was finally out.


    *****


    ¡°This is the house she was seen with some men and the maindy in suspect¡±, the policeman said alighting at the house Vanessa was kidnapped in. The truck as described was also there.


    ¡°It looks quiet and empty. Are you sure we are at the right ce?¡± Miles asked.


    ¡°There¡¯s only one way to find out. Let¡¯s search round¡±, the policeman concluded.


    They began their search but there was no sign.


    ¡°Hey, can I see that?¡± Miles asked one of the policemen to pass him the scarf that was on the floor. The man did.


    ¡°This looks like Vanessa¡¯s,¡± Miles said out loud. Sniffing it, he yelled ¡°It wore our perfume scent. Someone must have informed them about ouring. Let¡¯s split up and move down both roads, checking every corner¡±.


    They did so but she was nowhere near being found.


    *****


    It was already five hours of thorough searching. It was alreadyte in the night.


    ¡°Sir, we would be heading back to continue our investigations¡±, a policeman informed Miles. The police locked the building¡¯s gate with their own padlock hoping to draw the residents to their station for investigations. They left the scene and went back to Beverly Hills. Miles went on to check Lance¡¯s and Trey¡¯s condition at the hospital. They were better but both still worried about Vanessa.


    ¡°We would see her soon , I know it¡± Miles told the men.


    ¡°When will you be discharged?¡±Miles asked.


    *****


    ¡°Doctor, how¡¯s his condition?¡±, the secretary from the club asked.


    ¡°Well not so good. He will need surgery because he had suffered internal organs damage¡±, the doctor responded.


    ¡°Just tell me if you want us to continue the treatment and carry on the surgical process¡±, he added.


    ¡°Yes you can¡±, she answered.


    Andre was about to undergo six different surgeries and would need lot of time to recover.


    *****


    Doing some catch up, getting to know who she was better, Lorenzo offers to help Vanessa with fifty percent of the debt left. Asher just got in but he was early and didn¡¯t seem to happy. He just sat on the cream couch in the living room, not noticing the two people there.


    ¡°What happened son?, you look sad¡±, Lorenzo asked.


    ¡°One of my friend was involved in a fire ident. I¡¯m just worried about him. He is set to undergo surgery¡±, Asher answered.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    ¡°Did you go check on him at the hospital?¡± Vanessa threw in.


    ¡°I did, but I couldn¡¯t get to meet him. The surgery had already started¡±, he answered.


    ¡°Son, he will be fine. I¡¯ll need you to help Vanessa home tonight¡±, Lorenzo ordered.


    ¡°I am going out soon to celebrate with a friend¡±, he added.


    Asher nodded in agreement. Vanessa knew he neededfort so she went up to him on the couch and wrapped her hands with his, trying to calm him down.


    *****


    Twenty five minutester, Vanessa and Asher were set to leave.


    ¡°Thank you for everything. My regards to Mr. Lorenzo too¡±, Vanessa said as they got into the car. It was a Lamborghini car. She was leaving like she was justing back from a big vacation. They handed her cash and food. Vanessa had gone cloth shopping too on their way back from the hospital. It will be an hour and half drive to her house. They were already on their way.


    *****


    ¡°I just spoke with the doctor, and he said you both can go home now. But, you will have to be back for daily treatments and check-ups¡±, Miles announced.


    ¡°Thank you so much son, but please I want to know. Are they bills paid?¡±, Lance asked.


    ¡°Don¡¯t you bother about it. Myself and Doc have had it sorted out¡±. Miles answered.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go home.¡± He added with a smile, helping Lance out of the bed. Trey was much good and better, this is also because he was younger and still very much healthy. His body recovery was also very rapid.


    An hour after they got home, a car was parked in front of the house. It was Asher and Vanessa. Miles saw them and ran outside. Vanessa was hugging Asher goodbye.


    ¡°Oh wow! So you¡¯ve been out seeing other men, where people around actually thought you had been kidnapped¡±, Miles yelled.


    ¡°Please Asher, don¡¯t say a word. Let him make a fool of himself¡±, Vanessa said calmly to him.


    ¡°You are not going to say anything?¡± Miles asked. Lance and Trey wereing out of the house, Vanessa ran to them and it led to a huge family hug with tears flowing down her eyes.


    ¡°I miss you Dad¡±, Vanessa said, not able to control her tears.


    Asher was putting down her stuff from the car so he could carry them inside. As he walked towards the door, Miles stopped him.


    ¡°You are not wee here¡±, Miles told Asher. Vanessa looked back at Miles and yelled,


    ¡°Is this your father¡¯s house or your house?!¡±


    Miles was quite numb and didn¡¯t even know how to react. Asher got the things inside and was set to leave.


    ¡°Please don¡¯t go yet. Meet my family first¡± Vanessa asked Asher.  ¡°Don¡¯t mind him, he¡¯s just being- , you know Protective of his girl,¡± she added. Vanessa had informed him of how clingy, protective and possessive Miles can be. She had told him to be careful because he was a really jealous guy and can go wild if he sees his woman with another man, but all that did not matter now.


    Asher got in and the discussion started. She was sitting with her man and he curled his hands around her neck.


    ¡°His father saved me from my kidnappers. I found a way to escape, so while I was being chased he pulled over and helped me in his car¡± Vanessa said.


    ¡°¡­ hmm, I have to go now. I just received a text message, I have to be with my dad now. Some other time¡±, Asher smiled and waved bye to the family. It was just a lie. He was already developing feelings for Vanessa and wasn¡¯t enjoying the view of her and Miles. He hasn¡¯t liked anyone in a long time since he broke up with his ex girlfriend for cheating on him with his friend.


    ¡°Bye!¡±. They all said and waved to him except Miles of course.


    *****


    ¡°Sis, what really happened to you?¡± Trey asked. Miles had informed them not to say anything about what happened to them while she was gone. ¡°It might cause her to panic and get too scared¡±, he said.


    ¡°Yes please, my daughter , tell me how you got lost. I had lost my head and my mind¡± Lance added. She released a sigh.


    ¡°We are waiting¡±, Miles concluded.


    ¡°Okay fine¡± she answered.


    ¡°But first, I-, I have a confession¡±

 Chapter 13

    ¡°I was not kidnapped initially. I lied to you all before¡±, Vanessa said.  ¡°This is just the one time I actually was kidnapped¡±, she added. She knew she was not going back to Club Nexus so she lied.


    ¡°So what happened to you that night? You came home all weak and tired.¡± Miles asked.


    ¡°I needed to look for a job, I was walking all day and searching till I met a friend, Selma.¡± She answered.


    ¡°Yes, I¡¯ve met her,¡± Miles yelled.


    Vanessa was shocked but it only took a minute before Miles realized he could be in a big mess if Selma opens up on what they had together. He shouldn¡¯t have said that.


    ¡°Oh really, and what did she say?. Why did you meet with her?¡± Vanessa asked.


    ¡°Could Selma have exposed her?¡±, she thought quietly. Faces of guilt wore on both faces, Trey and his father were both dumbfounded with their looks.


    ¡°She just said you were friends and a friend of you both asked her to drop your phone. So she dropped it with me because Lance and Trey were-¡°. He took that in immediately. He was close to spilling.


    ¡°Lance and Trey were?¡± she asked.


    ¡°They were at the shop and I came to check you at home, that¡¯s when I found out you were lost.¡± He answered. Miles handed her the phone. It was switched off and she turned it on immediately.


    ¡°What?!¡±, she said out loud.


    ¡°Did you see a surprise message on your phone or what?¡±, Lance asked.  Tears rolled down her eyes. They were pictures and videos of Miles and Selma together in his house, on his bed, and both naked. Miles got up, saw the images and started pleading.


    ¡°OMG, Selma did this. It is not what you think Vanessa. I can exin¡±, Miles said in a calm tone.


    ¡°Leave! Leave!! Leave!!!!¡± Vanessa yelled at him.


    ¡°Oh wow, you even made her your signature coffee¡± she added.


    ¡°I was gone for a few days and you already did this!!¡± She yelled.


    ¡°Miles, I¡¯m done¡±, she said in a pretty loud tone walking to her bedroom. She turned, removed the engagement rings and threw them at him. She really was done. He has no exnation. Selma sent her those and captioned it  ¡°SOME SH*T BOYFRIEND¡±.  Vanessa¡¯s head was screaming inside, but she could only show it with the tears down her eyes. All he did for the Warners was forgotten at that point, Lance asked him to leave the house immediately.


    ¡°Sir, please I can talk to her,¡± Miles said pleading.


    ¡°I said you should leave!, leave!!¡± Lance yelled but he couldn¡¯t continue shouting because of his health. Miles left the house, sat in his car and headed home. Vanessa had already had her doors locked. She needed space.


    ¡°Make her some coffee,¡± Lance ordered Trey.


    *****


    It waste at night, Miles was really drunk and yet again, his visitor came in. The same thing happened that night, Selma sent another set of pictures to Vanessa and captioned it ¡± MEN WON¡¯T CHANGE, WOULD THEY?¡±. It really got on every nerve in Vanessa¡¯s body and she screamed out loud waking her family and neighbors up at midnight. This time, Selma didnt sleep behind after the sex she just had with Miles. She left and decided to check her ex-boyfriend¡¯s best friend¡¯s house.


    *****


    ¡°You like her, don¡¯t you?¡±Lorenzo asked Asher, handing him a ss of red wine. They were both in the swimming pool of the house, stargazing.


    ¡°I do, but I¡¯m not sure yet. It might just be infatuation. I don¡¯t believe in love at first sight Dad¡± Asher answered.


    ¡°You are an older boy, your mother and I need our grandkids now¡±, Lorenzo said.


    ¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry soon enough¡±, Asher responded. Lorenzo was leaving the pool and yelled, ¡°She¡¯s the daughter inw I want!!¡±. Asher shook his head and smiled as he dived back into the water with a breast stroke-like movement.


    *****


    ¡°Hey, I want that one¡±. A man was pointing to Theresa. She was drugged and kidnapped from the party. Esteban was the leader of a thug group. They did all sorts of illegal deals. Kidnapping, Drug trafficking, Armed robbery, even hacking of big sites. He had recruited both genders from all over towns in the country. His newest member would be Theresa. Esteban always had two options for his victims; Have sex with them irrespective of the gender and they join his group after marking them on their fist or they are terminated.


    Theresa decides to be terminated. She¡¯s got reports that she might end up having sex with more than six hefty men. She could literally die from there. After six days, on the seventh day the victims that chose death would be killed and the other marked and fu*ked.


    *****


    Theresa thought, ¡°Smith was at the party with her, he might be somewhere around too.¡± It was a different situation. Derek wanted the money all to himself, so he called the police and used Perry and Smith of robbery.


    ¡°You are under arrest for attempted sale of another person¡¯s property¡±, the policeman said as he cuffed both men in their hands collecting the car documents from them. They swore that they would get revenge on him for it.


    Perry had the same n so he had already hired some group of robbers. They attacked and killed Derek. After acquiring the car and its documents, they sold it off and paid the agreed percentage into Perry¡¯s ount. Smith was just a victim of greedy people.


    *****


    It¡¯s been two weeks now, Vanessa was partially over herst rtionship. She needed to get a new job. Club Nexus was still on rebuild and  Andre was still recovering. She had not seen him but had spoken to him on the phone. Selma was dating Fred¡¯s best friend now. They moved out of town.


    *****


    ¡°Doctor, how is he?¡± Vanessa asked.


    ¡°He is not good. We have to carry out the surgery and it would cost you twenty seven thousand¡± the doctor answered as he went to attend to other patients.


    Vanessa was home. Deep in thoughts, it was like Life had turned against her.  She¡¯s lost her job, her rtionship and now she¡¯s at the verge of losing her dad. The debt still remains unclear and time has a few weeks left to run out.


    Her phone was ringing, it was the Doctor.


    ¡°Hello ma!¡±


    ¡°Hi Doctor,¡± she answered.


    ¡°I am calling to inform you that the surgery will begin by 2:45pm. I have confirmed the payment¡± he said and ended the call.


    Of course, she was really confused who had paid such an amount of money and how the person even got to know about it because she did not tell anyone besides her brother Trey. He has to know of course. He is his father too. She rushed down to the hospital. On her way, a car stopped by her. It was Asher. He asked her to get in and she did.


    ¡°Hey, why are you in such a hurry? Where are you going?¡± He asked.


    ¡°The hospital,¡± she answered. She then exined the incident to him.


    ¡°This is surprising. Just take it easy, we will get there soon and find out¡± he said.


    *****


    ¡°Doctor, please I wasn¡¯t the one who made the payment for the surgery. Who did please?¡± Vanessa asked.


    ¡°I know. It was a young generous man¡± he added.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    ¡°Did he say who he was?¡± Asher asked.


    ¡°I can¡¯t really remember but he dropped a card¡± the doctor said. He handed Vanessa the card.


    The name wrote boldly in a nice font,


    ¡°ANDRE FEDERICO¡±

 Chapter 14

    ¡°What!¡±, they both yelled.


    ¡°Do you know the person?¡±, the doctor asked.


    ¡°Yes I do¡±, they said simultaneously.


    ¡°You do?¡±, they asked each other.


    ¡°Yes, he-, he was-¡°, Vanessa said she felt a tap on her shoulder, she paused her statement.


    *****


    Selma and her new boyfriend were having the best of life. They had just arrived in the room. They went for a swim. Tickling her till she fell on the bed, Ryan kissed her on the lips slowly.


    He bit her bottom lip hard. ¡°Then suck that cock until I tell you to stop.¡±


    ¡°Yes, sir,¡± said Selma in a mockingly submissive tone, but he still moaned in approval. Again she kissed and nipped his chest as she crawled


    backwards until she was settled between the invitation of his slightly spread thighs. He hissed as she ran her tongue along his cock from base to tip,pping up the drop of pree from the slit. Several times she licked his length,thing it and teasing him in the process until he bucked slightly,


    hunting for more. Smiling, she swirled her tongue around the head and took him into her mouth.


    He shuddered and groaned as she sucked hard on the head of his cock, flicking the sensitive part underneath with the tip of her tongue. Then she took more of him, swallowing, and the feel of her throat constricting around him had him groaning again. ¡°Oh yeah, suck it. Like that, baby, yes.


    Take more. Fuuuuck.¡± Each time she took him deeper, sucking so hard her cheeks hollowed. Then she was doing some wicked thing with her tongue, swirling it around his cock before grazing him with her teeth.


    Better than all of that, Ryan could feel that she was enjoying pleasuring him like this. Knowing that, he couldn¡¯t stay still any longer. He tangled a hand in her hair and began pumping his hips, fucking her mouth, but she didn¡¯t fight him. Instead she began ying with his balls and making these moaning sounds in the back of her throat that were eating at what little control he had. So many times he¡¯d imagined this, imagined her deep throating him and then swallowing his cum when she was still dating Fred, but right now that desire toe in her mouth was being overruled by the need to have here apart around his cock. With that, hisst thread of control snapped and lust hazed his brain. He tightened his grip on her hair, yanked her upright and then plunged a


    finger inside her. Her muscles gripped it tight and moisture swamped his finger. ¡°So wet. I think my little bitch got off on sucking my cock. Did you,


    baby?¡± She only nodded.


    ¡°I can¡¯t hear you¡±, he said.


    ¡°Yes.¡±, she answered.


    Ryan withdrew his finger and sucked it clean, groaning at her taste. He roughly dragged her to him and gathered up the t-shirt she was wearing and pushed it up and over her head. Then he was shaping her body with his hands, thumbing her taut nipples and pinching them hard. She jerked as he then stabbed two fingers inside her and flicked her clit with his thumb.


    *****


    ¡°Andre!¡±, Vanessa yelled. He was the one that tapped her shoulder. She jumped and gave him a hug. They both felt happy.


    ¡°Asher¡±, ¡°Andre¡±, the both men called each other names simultaneously. Next came a hug.


    ¡°How did you guys meet?¡±Andre asked, already not beingfortable with the pair. ¡°Could he be losing Vanessa to him?¡±, he thought.


    ¡°Dad. He saved her from her kidnappers.¡± Asher answered.


    ¡°Wow, that¡¯s great news and you?¡±, he asked Andre.


    ¡°Guys, wait, leave the introduction. I have to thank Andre for this¡±, Vanessa added.


    *****


    It¡¯s been two weeks now. Club Nexus has been rebuilt and it¡¯s back to business. Surprisingly, it¡¯s way better than it was before. The interior and exterior decorations are top notch and quality. Andre, also is ny five percent recovered. There have been eight new strippers at the club. Only four of the old strip dancers were left, most of them left finally because they never thought there would be a rebuild of the club. Still looking for a job, Vanessa was working at her dad¡¯s coffee shop. She still thinks of Miles and what he is probably doing now. She misses him. She cried when she found out he paid the money for Lance and Trey while she was gone. ¡±Did I act too fast?¡±, she thought inside of her.


    *****


    ¡°Dear Lance,


    I am very much sure you know why I am writing. You have got a week left to pay me, including the additional money you collected again. I look forward to receiving my money by the due date.


    ANDRE FEDERICO.


    The letter had got to Lance a dayte, so it was already six days left. Lance told his children about it, but all they had gathered was all they intended to give when the man arrived.


    ¡°When hees, we will give him all we have gathered. If by any means we get to plead with him, he might give us more time¡±, his eldest child proposed.


    ¡°Yes sis, that might work. I¡¯m scared of dying or losing any more of my family¡±, Trey added.


    The additional money that Andre talked about was the money for Lance¡¯s surgery. Andre did not pay on his own will. Lance was scared to die and leave his children in a permanent mess, so he texted Andre and told him to help him. Andre on the other hand, knew that if Lance died he won¡¯t be able to get his money so he offered to help.


    *****Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    ¡°Oh my-¡°, Vanessa yelled.


    ¡°What happened?¡±, Lance asked.


    ¡°He-, he sent me some money¡± she stammered as she answered Lance.


    ¡°Who is he?¡±, Lance asked.


    ¡°Miles¡±, she answered as she shed some tears.  Miles had sent her twenty two thousand dors. He had been working so hard since he moved out of town and got a new job. He still did not get a new girl. Vanessa couldn¡¯t stop her tears. She was regretting her actions. She tried calling his number but it was not reachable. He had misced his phone but always had her number and ount details in his journal.


    *****


    Minutester, her phone rang. The ringtone was her favorite song for about three years now. It was Savage Love by Jason Derulo.


    ¡°Hey, I¡¯m back in town¡±, the man said.


    ¡°Really?, that¡¯s nice. How are you? and how was your journey?¡±, she asked.


    ¡°Great. All good. So can we go out together tonight? I¡¯d pick you up from the shop¡±, he added.


    ¡°Yes sure, what time will you being?¡± She asked again.


    ¡°Let¡¯s make it 8pm. See you soon. Kisses¡±, he answered.


    ¡°Okay, love you¡± she added before ending the call.

 Chapter 15

    Miles knew at this point, she will want to talk to him so bad. He did not want to call her yet with his new number.


    ¡°Hey, what¡¯s making you feel and look so bad?¡±, a co worker asked. Miles wanted to ignore but then he answered,


    ¡°I miss her so much¡±.


    He told some of his co workers about hisst rtionship. He was a very handsome looking man, well trimmed beards, six feet tall, light skinned, brown eyes, always dressed nicely, wore a very nice perfume and a cute smile. Some of the female co workers wanted him, but he barely gave any of them his attention.


    ¡°Yeah man, I understand how you feel. You should probably visit her in Beverly during your weeks off¡±, the man said.


    It was a good idea, but he was not going to do that. He needed to be sure he could face her. He didn¡¯t even know about the second time with Selma.


    *****


    It was 7:50pm, Vanessa was dressed in a blue short gown and wore a silver Gi high heels.


    ¡°Hey Dad, I¡¯m out on a date tonight. I mighte backte. Take care of yourself, okay¡±, Vanessa told her father. It was just two minutes to eight o¡¯clock in the evening that her date arrived. He never rante, which made her like him more.


    Hearing the horn from his car, she kissed her dad goodbye and left the house. She smiled on sighting him, he gave her his wicked killing smile too. His perfume smelled so nice, she wanted to smell like him.


    ¡°I¡¯m taking all your perfumes when I get to your house¡±, she said after hugging him. He helped her into his car and then drove off. They were going to EU-PHO-RIA. It is a new restaurant in Beverly Hills. It is a very expensive ce to be but its worth every penny.


    *****


    It was the D-day for payment. The Warners have gathered all they had made together. They had one hundred and fifty eight thousand dors left to pay. They were all scared.


    It was eleven in the morning, and a fleet of luxurious cars arrived at Mr. Lance¡¯s house. The main man was in the only red Ferrari car which was in between several cars and jeeps, all ck colors.


    ¡°They are here¡±, Mr. Lance informed his family.


    ¡°Let¡¯s say some prayers before they get in¡±, Vanessa requested.


    ¡°Okay yes¡±, the both men agreed.


    Just as they were about to start, a huge bang was heard on their door. He is here.


    ¡°Just murmur your prayers in you¡±, Lance suggested.


    *****


    A tall handsome dark skinned man entered the house. It was not Andre.


    ¡°This is not the man I collected money from¡±, Lance whispered to his family. They all wore faces of shock. Who could this be?.


    ¡°Good morning sir¡±, the man greeted.


    ¡°Good morning also¡±, Mr. Lance responded.


    ¡°How may I help you sir?¡±, He asked.


    ¡°Are you not expecting someone today?¡±, the man asked.


    ¡°Yes I am but¡±,


    ¡°I am not talking to you man. I am talking to the girl¡±, the man said.


    ¡°Me?, I¡¯m not expecting anyone¡±, the girl answered.


    ¡°Did you check your phone messages today?¡±, he asked. Andre texted her he would being over to her house but he could not, so he had his friends drop some gifts and food items.


    ¡°Andre asked us to drop some gifts and food items¡±, the man said. The whole family felt relieved.


    ¡°Uhm¡­where are they?¡± Vanessa asked.


    ¡°I¡¯d ask them to bring them in¡±, he answered.


    *****


    It was already past six o¡¯clock in the evening, and Andre still had not shown up.


    ¡°Is it possible he forgot?¡±, the troubled daughter asked.


    ¡°I know him, he cane anytime soon¡±, Lance answered. Lance surely knew him well. Andre just got to their house and he definitely did note alone. The bodyguards he had with him were six and they were all sort of armed with weapons.


    *****


    A knock was heard on the door, Vanessa rushed for it. It was Andre Federico, her boss. She jumped and hugged him. He was checking up on her, isn¡¯t it?.


    ¡°Hey, where is Lance?. I came for him¡±, Andre asked.


    ¡°Why? What do you need him for?¡±, she asked also.


    ¡°I am here¡±, Lance said walking out of the bedroom with the cash in his hands. The money was in a bag. Andre ordered the men to count it with the counting machine in their hands.


    ¡°It was you that-¡°, Vanessa was talking as Andre cut in and interrupted her.


    ¡°Yes, your father owes me a lot¡±, he said.


    She started to cry, the shock was too much for her.


    ¡°Andre, Andre, you have to please understand us. The money is notplete¡±, Vanessa cried unto him.


    ¡°That is none of my business, we had an agreement so we stick to the contract. He might have been dead if he didn¡¯t beg me to pay his surgery fees¡±, he answered.


    ¡°He what?, I thought you did it on your own free will?¡± she asked.


    *****


    ¡°Theresa!!!! Shoot!!¡±, the man shouted.


    During the kidnap, after choosing to be killed, at the point of death, they were asked again for thest time and this time Theresa changed her mind. She had a rough sex with six men. Itsted three hours and some minutes. She suffered severe tear in her pubic area. The initiation was done and soon enough, she became one of the best armed robbers on the team. They were currently robbing a rich man¡¯s house and have acquired a lot already. The police came and were already after them. A police officer was running almost neck to neck with one of the team members and she was in a perfect spot to shoot the police officer down. She cocked her gun, but she fell t on the floor.


    Her team leader shot her dead. He never trusted her.

    The bodyguards have counted the money. It was notplete just as she said. He smiled.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Where is my bnce?¡±, he yelled and had one of his men point a gun to Lance. Lance was stammering and not able to make a full sentence. Vanessa and Trey were both filled with over flowing tears.


    ¡°Please give us some more time, please!¡±, the family pleaded.


    ¡°I got kidnapped and they both had surgeries¡±, Vanessa said.


    ¡°I lost my job and I was not even paid well¡±, she added.


    ¡°Please just a little more time¡±, Lance pleaded.


    Vanessa was really set to inform Asher and Lorenzo so they can help her. She tried applying for a loan in the bank but it would take forever before they got the money.


    ¡°Oh, so you want more time after the agreement¡±, he yelled.


    Andre stood up from the chair he was on, walked to the door like he was leaving. He still has not made a statement yet. On getting to the door, he mmed his fist on the wall and turned to face them.


    ¡°No more time. Shoot him!¡±, he ordered.

 Chapter 16

    ¡°Two weeks is all you have to pay me back my money¡±, Andre said finally leaving the house. He was not being considerate and only wickedness filled his heart at that moment. ¡°Why did he pay for his hospital bills when he knew he was going to kill him anyway?¡± Vanessa murmured in silence and Trey was fully soaked with tears. Andre sent them gifts and food items before he got to their house, he then killed her father. He said he did not need an excuse of feeding or getting clothes so he had that sort out so they could pay him. Andre lied about the contract and said stated that after failed payment by due date extra one hundred and twenty thousand dors will be added to the unbnced fee.


    *****


    It¡¯s been a week now and they have only raised fifty thousand dors. They sold all they had in their possession including the coffee shop and some of the equipment there. Lance was finally to be brought home the next day. It was Sunday , the beginning of the deadline week. After Andre ordered his bodyguard to be shot, the man only made motions with the gun. Andre made him do it. There were no bullets in the gun. How then did Lance fall t on the ground?.


    *****


    ¡°He is much better now and can leave to go home¡±, the doctor said. Lance suffered a cardiac arrest after the gun was pointed to him. He was shocked, and felt that was the very end of his journey in life. Trey was in the bedroom when Andre came, so he ced a call to the policemen but before they arrived Andre and his men had already left. The policemen helped the children drive their father to the hospital for immediate care. The money had been reduced to forty thousand dors. The cost of Lance¡¯s treatment was around four thousand dors.

    ¡°It¡¯s high time I opened up to him¡±, she thought. The man she has been going out on dates with, doesn¡¯t know about all these even if he had met her family. He left town and just got back again. This time he was not going anywhere till mid of the next year. It was a long period of time. He was set to go on a date with her again. He just enjoyed going out with her since he had no woman. He was ready to open up about his feelings that night and was she going to do the same after she informed him of what her family was going through at that time. Andre really wanted Vanessa but he was not going to be sweet about it. The real mafia darkness was inside of him ever since he was duped by a fake pregnancy. Andre had the man and Vanessa followed, he really wanted to know what was going on.


    ¡°If he tries to help her and raise the money, I will not ept it¡±, Andre murmured to himself.


    *****


    Three days left and they have still not had the money yet. Vanessa had already informed her new boyfriend but he told her to wait. He was furious and angry with Andre. Andre already knows of her new rtionship and was ready to go long ways to end it even if it would cost a life or cost lives.

    Ashley was back to Club Nexus. Her marriage was over. She filed a divorce and left him. She met him at the club, he was not a good man as he looked. He was involved in illegal acts but she did not find out until a few days before she went back to the club.

His friends really wanted to meet with Vanessa but she was not ready.


    *****


    Vanessa¡¯s POV,


    He got into the house and I waspletely down. I needed joy in my heart, it was just filled with sorrows. Asher threw his wicked smile at me. He had to hug him for a long time. He was worried and sensed I had a lot bothering me but I still did not open up to him. I pushed him down to the couch, sat on hisp and imitated a kiss. His lips were so soft. He bit me so good. His fingers ran through my hair as he caressed my face and gave me very deep kisses. I strapped my hand around his neck. He kissed my neck and it sent my arousal to its peak. His touch, lips and inches I felt below me were all I needed. I took my clothes off and he sucked on me so well. He kissed my neck and it gave me goosebumps. I licked and sucked on his lips, I never want to let loose. Moving his hands down, he grabbed my a** and continued to kiss me. He grabbed my legs and spread open for him to stand between. He didn¡¯t break eye contact. Then he slowly lowered his face towards my neck, sucking softly on my skin. He found my sweet spot and made moans escape my mouth. He went further kissing my corbone and I tilted my neck to give him more ess.


    ¡°I think I¡¯m still hungry¡±, he said, pulling me back.


    ¡°I want to have lunch¡±, he smirked, making me realize what he wanted.


    He looked me up and down asking for consent and then I nodded in agreement. His hands wrapped around my thighs pulling me closer to the edge and taking my remaining clothings off. My breathing got heavier as he took off each piece of clothing. He slowly lowered himself to my entrance. He started to eat me up. I held on to his head and pulled him harder to me. He flicked his tongue so good on me. He got up and I had his cock filled in my mouth. I took every inch in. He really needed toe. I couldn¡¯t stop it was a feeling of life time. Soon enough, a knock was heard on the door.

 Chapter 18

    The knock on the door did not seem to be stopping any time soon. Vanessa got on one of the big shirts she saw on the chair and went to answer the door. Asher walked behind her as she did.


    ¡°Let me do the honors¡±, Asher said wanting to open the door himself. She smiled and answered, ¡°As your wish my Lord¡±.


    *****


    Vanessa was still on her bed shedding tears, she couldn¡¯t believe what she saw. She was confused, to be happy and support her younger brother¡¯s rtionship or not. When Asher had opened up the door few minutes back, Selma and Trey were caught sharing a kiss to the lips. Vanessa screamed and hurriedly got into her room. Seeing Selma was bringing bad memories to her. It made her think of Miles. Selma came back to the house because she left her keys behind. She knew it was a wrong time for them to meet especially that way they just did. Asher was at the door of her room, leaning his head on the wall and staring at her.


    ¡°Can ie in?¡±, he asked.


    She stoppedying and sat on the bed hugging her pillow, resting her head on it. Vanessa tapped the space on the bed passing an information to Asher toe sit by her. He understood the message and went for the bed. As he sat, she hugged him and started to cry again.


    ¡°She took him from me¡±, she said in a very sober tone.


    ¡°She caused me a lot of pains¡±, she added.


    ¡°I know and I understand how you feel, but I¡¯m here now¡±, Asher answered. Making eye contacts,


    he said,


    ¡°Would you be my woman?¡±.


    *****


    Trey and Selma were inside the sitting room when he came in. Andre had just arrived for his money. Asher and Vanessa ran out on hearing his voice.


    ¡°What money?¡±, Asher asked.


    Andre had totally ignored him. He was jealous. He did not enjoy that Asher and Vanessa were close. He needs to get rid of him. She arrived with a bag of cash. His associates counted it but it was notplete yet.


    ¡°Notplete!, you think this is a joke here?¡±, he asked.


    ¡°No but my dad has gone out to get some cash¡±, Vanessa answered crying.


    ¡°How much is the money? I want to pay for it¡±, Asher interrupted.


    ¡°This is none of your business¡±, Andre answered.


    ¡°Take the girl and let¡¯s move¡±, he ordered his soldiers.


    ¡°She is not going anywhere¡±, Asher pulled her to his back.


    ¡°I will make this payment and you leave their family at this instant¡±, Asher added.


    ¡°Who do you think you are to talk to me?¡±, Andre asked.


    ¡°Take the girl, let¡¯s leave¡±, he shouted in a very loud tone.


    Asher pulled her back again but as she did, Andre punched him right to his face. One of the soldiers grabbed Vanessa but Trey reacted quickly and protected his sister by hitting the soldier an iron rod straight to his head.


    ¡°Coward!¡±, Asher said, talking to Andre.


    ¡°I regret ever bing friends with you this a**hole¡±, he added. Andreughed hard and answered,


    ¡°Friends? Oh, you think we are friends?¡±. Asher was cleaning his mouth which was already bleeding before he spat the blood on Andre¡¯s shoe.


    ¡°We were never friends. I need wanted to f**k your girl, Hailey, so I became close to you¡±, Andre said.


    Asher jumped and started to punch Andre aggressively. Hailey was his long term girlfriend but she died trying to carry out an abortion. She got pregnant but her and Asher nerer had sex. It was Andre. He gave her pills to kill her and the child. It made Asher lose hope on women and trust. She was obviously a cheat and it was his so called friend.


    ¡°If you want to pay the money, bring it to me in cash¡±, Andre ordered.


    ¡°I can bring it myself Asher, I don¡¯t need him to hurt you¡±, Vanessa begged.


    ¡°I can go with her too¡±, Selma suggested.


    ¡± No, I only want him¡±, Andre said, releasing a wicked smile and cleaning his bleeding face.


    *****


    ¡°Why didn¡¯t you tell me all this earlier?¡±, Asher asked.


    ¡± I wanted to, but it felt too soon and too early. We just met and your family had already helped save my life¡±, she answered.


    ¡°Please let me go with you tomorrow, I am scared he might hurt you¡±, she added.


    ¡°No, you stay here and stay safe¡±, he ordered.


    Still scared and bothered about what Andre said about his ex girlfriend, Vanessa asked,Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    ¡°Can i help you use some warm water to clean your bleeding lips or a kiss would do?¡±.


    He smiled and answered, ¡°Girl, it¡¯s fine. I would visit the hospital¡±.


    She kissed his forehead and gave him a tight hug that almost sent her filling her eyes with tears.


    *****


    Its been hours and Lance is not back home yet. His number has not been avable also.


    ¡°Hey, can we talk?¡±, Selma asked Vanessa.


    ¡°No and never will, B*TCH!¡±, she answered in a loud tone.


    Vanessa stood up from the chair and went to her room. As she was walking, Selma was yelling something.


    ¡°Yes I understand you are angry and sad, but Miles was actually innocent¡±.


    Vanessa couldn¡¯t get what she said really. All she heard was


    ¡°Yes I understand¡±.


    *****


    The worry increased. Lance was not home yet. Vanessa, Trey and Selma started to look out for the old man. During the neighborhood search, Asher arrived from the hospital after getting his treatments. He joined her in the search.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go make a report at the police station¡±, Asher proposed.


    ¡°Okay fine, let¡¯s go¡±, she agreed without any hesitation.


    *****


    It has been hours of search and still he was not found or has not even gotten home. Asher and Vanessa were stuck on the road.


    ¡°I will give you anything you want, please just let us leave¡±, Asher pleaded with the attackers. There people don¡¯t seem to want anything from them, only restrict their movements.


    ¡°We do not want anything from you, turn your car and go back now, or else I¡¯ll gun you to your feet¡±, the attack leader ordered.


    As they got into their car, the same set of pictures got into all their phones. Vanessa, Asher, Trey and Selma got the images. Lance was tied up and was beaten. Who else could it be?


    ¡°ANDRE FEDERICO¡±.

 Chapter 19

    Asher drove back to Vanessa¡¯s house. Her tears were not ending. The sadness they felt was too much. Asher knew making that payment would end all this. He tried to console her but it was not helping. Trey had broken down. He called his sister to inform her of the message he got. She couldn¡¯t talk but she texted him back and confirmed she got it too.

    Andre had kidnapped Lance using his friend. Andre made Lance¡¯s friend, James , lure Lance to his house so then Andre attacks and kidnaps him.

This is mouth watering. I know you can¡¯t reject it. I also promise to give you your job back. I am awaiting your reply¡±.


    It was Andre that texted her. She thought about it and for the second time someone trusts the devil. She made up her mind to do as Andre asked.

    ¡°My son, how are you doing?¡±Andre said,ughing really loud.C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.

    ¡°Suit yourself, just get here before he is dead and pray you also make it here¡±, Andre said before ending the call. Asher had just given him the information he needed just before the next day. He does not need Selma again.


    *****


    Running on a low battery, Selma was already replying to Andre¡¯s text. She typed ¡°DEAL¡± , but her phone went off and so she couldn¡¯t send the message. She agreed to stay back tonight but there was no charger for her phone. She would just sleep early.


    ¡°Hey my charger will work with your phone¡±, Trey said. He picked her phone up and plugged the charger in. She went to the bathroom to wash her face and take a dump. While in the bathroom, she thought to herself ¡°Trusting Andre would not be a good thing and I really don¡¯t want to break Vanesaa twice or even break Trey at all¡±. She nned she was not going to give Andre any information. Her phone rang and Trey went for it since she was not there, it was Andre that called. He was confused and bothered so he unlocked and yes he saw the text. It was saved in Drafts written as ¡°DEAL¡±, he read the message Andre had sent earlier and shouted in anger. He was very angry. He showed Vanessa and Asher. Vanessa started crying because she knew Selma was not to be trusted. Selma heard the noises and hurried up. As she got to the sitting room where they were all gathered, Vanessa threw a p to her cheek.


    ¡°I never trusted you. I knew you were a B*TCH!. I hate you so much¡±, Vanessa said yelling right at Selma¡¯s face.


    ¡°I thought you loved me and wanted the best for me. You have been a criminal here all along. I saw your text with Andre, you both are nning on killing Asher. It won¡¯t work¡±, Trey said in anger.


    ¡°I, I can exin¡±, Selma said, crying so much already. There was really no excuse that would convince them she had changed her mind.


    ¡°Take this and leave!. I don¡¯t want to ever see you again¡±, Trey said, handing her all her possessions ¨C her bag, car keys and phone. She took them and went for the door. She was hurt and scattered inside. She left and couldn¡¯t even believe what had happened. Trey was sad and disturbed but he was pleading with his sister, he was disobedient and did not listen to her when she warned him.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. She is not just someone humans trust¡±, Vanessa said.

    It was the next morning, Asher decided to go an hourter than he originally nned. He texted Vanessa he was going there by nine that morning. She sent him a prayer text and made him promise he would be fine. There was arge safe in Mr. Lorenzo¡¯s house. Asher informed him of everything and without hesitation, he allowed Asher to pick money from the safe and clear up the debt.


    It was forty seven minutes past eight in the morning, Asher was already close to Andre¡¯s house. He had some backup, his father¡¯s soldiers and some policemen.


    *****


    Andre was waiting for him at the gate of his house. By three minutes past nine that morning, Asher got to the house. He was surrounded by the policemen and soldiers.


    ¡°Like i said, you are a coward!¡±Andre saidughing.


    ¡°Count this money¡±, he ordered one of his soldiers.


    A few minutester, the soldier informed Andre that the money wasplete.


    ¡°Where is the man?¡±, Asher asked.


    ¡°You won¡¯t be able to see him¡±, that was all Andre said before Asher fell t to the floor. A bullet just ran through his head.

    Andre had already taken to his heels and the money with the soldier running behind him. There was an exchange of fire. Andre ordered his soldiers to attack the policemen. Selma was in the car at a particr corner, she was the driver. She is helping Andre escape. Andre got into the car and she immediately zoomed off. The old man had already been taken and locked up at Selma¡¯s house.

    ¡°How do we break this to Mr Lorenzo?¡±, a soldier asked after the gunfire had stopped.


    ¡°We lost a lot of us. He would understand it was a war¡±, they concluded.

    ¡°So what? We had a deal, it¡¯s your part of the deal. You said thank me for giving you a deal ungrateful b*tch¡±, Andre said angrily.

    Tears did not seem to end in Mr. Lorenzo¡¯s house, his only child was gone. No wife and no kids, yet he was a happy young man. His mother was not aware of the news yet. She had left Europe earlier that day. She was visiting Lagos, Nigeria in West Africa. His friends were not convinced he was dead. They knew how tactical and strategic he was, he could not be killed so easily. It was in the family tradition that no living person must sight the dead body, until it has been buried. Asher has been buried already so the family were going to his grave when it was eleven o¡¯clock this morning.


    *****


    Vanessa was already being suicidal, she couldn¡¯t take it anymore. Andre had taken everything from her.


    ¡°It shouldn¡¯t have been any of you¡±, she said crying.


    ¡°I drew you both into my personal problems and ended your life¡±, she added.


    ¡°I am responsible for your death¡±, she said out loud in her crying tone.


    *****


    Trey was empty inside. He was confused and filled with bitter sorrow. He had always had Thanatophobia ¨C the fear of losing someone especially a rtive or friend to death. He has not healed from Selma also. Trey dabbed his face twice with a handkerchief to remove the tears flowing. He then walked up to his sister and said,


    ¡°Vanessa, I am scared I¡¯ll be the next¡±.


    ¡°Andre wants something but he wants us to ask what he wants¡±, he added.


    This is true, Andre was waiting for them to ask what he really wants. Vanessa¡¯s tears ceased and she thought carefully about what her brother said.


    ¡°Help me get my phone, I need to talk to him¡±, she ordered. Trey left to make a search where the phone was. She was not too sure of its exact location.


    *****


    ¡°Okay yes, I am here with you in the bedroom. I want my thank you¡±, Selma said. Andre was easily moved by her body, he pulled her to the bed and she got up immediately.


    ¡°Not anymore Andre, I am in love with someone else¡±, she said out loud. She walked towards the door but he had already stripped himself of his clothes. She sighted his body and her eyes went down to his cock. She hesitated and decided to leave the room. She shut the door of the room and rested on it from the outside, she started touching herself sexually. The kiss he gave her to the neck had turned her on. Andre knew she was still at the door but he just sat on the bed trying to satisfy himself by stroking his cock.


    Few minutester, he was almost halfway through sleep but then his phone beeped. It was an unknown number. Vanessa made use of her brother¡¯s phone to call him.


    ¡°Hello, who is this?¡±he said in a sleepy tone.


    ¡°Wake your eyes up. It is the girl you decided to make her life miserable¡±, she said.


    ¡°Which of them? I have done that to a lot of girls,¡± he answered.


    ¡°It¡¯s Vanessa¡±, she said, almost wanting to tear up after what he just said.


    ¡°I need to speak to my father¡±, she demanded.


    ¡°I am not where he is, maybeter woman. Do you have my money now?¡±, he lied and then asked her.


    ¡± I do not ¡°, she answered.


    ¡°Why on earth did you decide to disturb my sleep with a phone call?¡±, he asked.


    ¡°I want to know exactly what you want to let my family go and clear your debt. I know you don¡¯t want the money¡±, she said.


    ¡°Meet me at-¡°, Selma interrupted him with a kiss, he ended the call and focused on her.


    *****


    ¡°F**k¡±, she screamed out loud.


    ¡°What happened sis?¡±, Trey asked as part of him was already filled with fear.


    ¡°He ended the call, it seems like a kiss interrupted him¡±, she answered.


    ¡°I just pray he texts back or calls back. He was actually ready to meet up but his slut had him disturbed¡±, she added.


    ¡°Just feel like ripping both their throats out¡±, she said with a loud tone and angry face.


    *****


    Andre had Selma where he wanted. She had his full cock in her mouth. She took every inch like she was a pro. It made hime so fast. She was wet and fully aroused. She kept on sucking on his cock then all of sudden, she stopped.


    ¡°What?, Why did you stop?¡±, he asked. He really needed to fill her mouth with his semen. He was very close to doing that. She made a firm grip on his balls. I have a contract for you to sign. Andre was groaning and shaking in pain. He tried fighting her off but she brought out a butter knife. It was dangerous, she came really prepared. He had no choice but to cooperate with her.


    ¡°Come in¡±, she shouted as she called out to herwyer who was at the door all along. Thewyer had the contract¡¯s files in his hand and a pen of course. He came in with three well armed men.


    ¡°Mywyer is here with the contract and you must sign otherwise you are a dead human¡±, she said in a bossy tone. She was really enjoying the grip but she had to let go so he could sign well.


    ¡°Give it to him¡±, she ordered.


    The armed men cocked their guns and were ready to shoot in case he acted funny or acted smart. Well, Andre did act smart but they were ready for him.


    *****


    As soon as he was offered the pen by thewyer, he acted like he did not know how to handle a pen. He broke it and threw it out the window. The armed men from their bags each brought out a pack of pens each which contained at least fifty pieces each. They also had two copies of the contract each. They were ready. At this point, he was ready to cooperate.


    ¡°If you tear this paper, I swear I myself would release three bullets to your left leg and one bullet straight to your balls¡±, Selma said angrily because she knew he could try to act smart again.


    *****


    Andre was not going to do that. He held the pen and sighted everyone in the room. The guns were still pointed at him, even his slut had a knife with her.


    ¡°Can, Can I-¡°, he stammered then Selma did cut in,


    ¡°Yes you can, idiot!¡±, she said in a loud tone. She knew he wanted to read the contract details, but it doesn¡¯t matter anyway. If he does not sign, he would be shot and probably stabbed to death. Andre soon started to read the contract highlights out loud.


    ¡°Selma!!, What?¡±, he shouted loudly before receiving a huge p to the face from one of the armed men.

 Chapter 21

    Soon after screaming, he became silent and was numb. He did not know the right emotions to feel. Inside of him, he was ready to have her and herpany all killed at this instant. The contract was wild as he read on.


    ¡°Just skip to the middle part, that is where I need you to see and sign¡±, Selma ordered. He followed the orders sheid down and decided to take a look at it immediately. She had a copy in her hand and gave him a straight summary.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    ¡°The contract states, you have to give me fifty percent ownership of every one of your properties here in Beverly Hills¡±, she smiled as shepleted the statement. He gave her a confused look, how could he even do that? She was not his mother, sister, wife or child.


    ¡°Do you have a problem with that?¡±, she demanded.


    ¡°Selma, I do have a problem with it¡±, he answered in a loud and angry tone.


    ¡°Maybe a bullet to your leg will make you think right¡±, she concluded.


    ¡°Shoot him on the left sheen¡±, she ordered. Each of the men shot but Selma gave them orders initially not to hurt him, so they shot the bedsheets close to his leg.


    ¡°Okay okay, I have no problem with it. I would sign everything. Don¡¯t read again please. I just had a surgery recently¡±, he pleaded like a little child.


    ¡°I am actually enjoying reading this. Next, you have to make an advance payment to me today worth the whooping sum of two million dors¡±, she added. The young man screamed in disbelief. It was more than torture making him do all this at the point. He just had surgery, his house was robbed by that wretched witch, his club was burnt down and he just had an expensive rebuild. He knew he couldn¡¯t plead at that moment. He was hot inside.


    ¡°I am not done, there would be no killing of a soul from you or your associates. The Warner¡¯s family and their rtives or friends. No deaths!.¡±, she said with a sigh of relief following. He nodded in agreement.


    ¡°Lastly!¡±, she said out loud because it was her favorite part.


    ¡°No more any form of sex or an intercourse / romance between us ever again. In case I am. announced dead after this, one of these men will shoot you down, exactly two hourster no matter how much you hide. Andre agreed with her and decided to sign the contract. He took the new pen and started to sign the necessary ces.

    Vanessa was worried and wanted to speak with Andre. He was given a sleeping pill in his drink. One of his hands was tied to the bed. When he woke up he took his phone and called one of his associates. As soon as he ended the call with his associates, Vanessa¡¯s call came in.


    ¡± Andre Hello¡± , Vanessa said as soon as he answered the call.


    ¡°Yes, yes, what did you say you want?¡±, he asked, still feeling very much dizzy. The pills have not worn out yet. He still needed sleep. He continued to fight it so he could talk to Vanessa at least.


    ¡°I asked you what you wanted from me, which was not the money. You said we would meet-, and yeah the call ended¡±, she said mimicking him.


    ¡°Okay yes, let¡¯s meet at the club. I¡¯lle with your father Lance, mywyer and the contract. Today by six o¡¯clock in the evening. I¡¯ll be on the fourth floor. Don¡¯t try to waste my time¡±, he answered.


    ¡°Okay i will meet you there man¡±, she hung the call immediately and wanted to prepare since it was still three o¡¯clock in the afternoon.


    *****


    Since he was drugged, he had already made the two million dors advance payment to Selma. His associates and soldiers were all drugged by Selma that time. It was her house, so she offered them the same drink.


    ¡°You had better get your a** up, I have sold the house and the new owners areing soon. Much love¡± , Selma.


    The young man just became more furious. She had sold the house and had gotten a new one that day. She even got a new Bentley car, it was thetest model from the car manufacturers. She was already out shopping for clothes, shoes , bags and the likes. She always did her grocery shopping online. She had nned that she would send two hundred thousand dors to Treyter that evening.


    *****


    Andre was already out of the house and the new owners were making adjustments and cleaning up. Hiswyer had already forwarded the club¡¯s new documents to him. They threatened thewyer so much, he had to do it. He was still shot on his thigh at the end of the day. Selma, on the other hand, was almost running dry. She had done really expensive shopping. She was left with just two hundred thousand and twenty six dors. If she decides to send Trey the two hundred thousand dors she nned to, she would be left with just twenty six dors. She was wasteful and too extravagant. She decided she was not going to send him the money.


    *****


    Vanessa had informed her brother of the meeting with Andre and he opted to go with her. Lance, their father, was already sick and needed treatments. Vanessa bought some drugs with her while she was going to the club. Her phone has been ringing but she decided to keep ignoring it.


    ¡°I am not answering any calls now, my family is at stake. This is more important. I don¡¯t even know the kind of news that I might hear. It should not be one to worsen my mood right now¡±, she thought within herself. The caller did not seem to end the call now, he or she really wanted to talk to her at that point. It was so disturbing, she took her phone out and decided to check who it was. She screamed out loud in the uber, causing the driver to hit his brakes. The driver and Trey both turned back to see why she screamed. She was already crying. The missed calls were ASHER DE STEFFANO. He already sent a text,


    ¡°Hey Princess, I understand you went through a lot because you thought I was gone. I am here and not dead. I am at your house with your favorite flowers and chocte milk. Hope to talk to you soon. I love you¡±


    ASHER.

 Chapter 22

    ¡°Sis, Hey, Vanessa¡±, Trey said in a mild tone as he was taping and waking up his sister. Vanessa was tired and deep in sleep, so she could barely feel a touch. After several tapping, she finally answered and had woken up. She checked her phone and released a deep sigh.


    ¡°It was all just a dream¡±, she murmured.


    ¡°What dream?¡±, Trey asked, bing confused by the statement.


    ¡°It was nothing Trey¡±, she responded in a mellow tone.


    *****


    The truth is that it wasn¡¯t nothing. She only just had a dream. The flowers and the chocte milk was not real. The man also, Asher, was not real. Asher was pretty much dead. He was really gone. She started to cry as they alighted from the uber. Something was real though, it was the missed calls. Miles had been calling her phone all along but she did not answer it. She was not ignoring him but her phone was really deep down her purse and it was set on silent. She really did not feel like talking to anyone. Tears continue to drop from her eyes as she continued to remember him and the sweet sex they had. His friends that thought he was not dead for real, all thought wrong.


    *****


    ¡°Let them in¡±, Andre ordered.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    His visitors, Vanessa Warner and Trey Warner had already arrived. They were ready to hear what he had to say.


    ¡°Hey¡±, Vanessa said on sighting him. Andre was clearly not in a mood of going out. He was in his night wear already at past six o¡¯clock in the evening. He wore gold and ck colored Louis Vuitton pajamas.


    ¡°Okay go straight to what you asked me about¡±, he demanded.


    ¡°Fine. What exactly can I do to set my dad free and clear the debt? You clearly don¡¯t want the money back¡±, she said out loud.


    ¡°Hey, hey, do not make loud noises at my face or I¡¯ll have you fed to my dogs¡±, he smiled and cautioned her.


    ¡°I would let your father, Lance , witness this¡±, he added. With just his hand signal, he had given out an instruction that his prisoner should be brought out to the meeting. Hiswyer was invited also.


    *****


    mming the table, he shouted, ¡°That is enough. Let¡¯s get straight to why we are here holding this meeting¡±. The family members were engaged in a long hug after the father was released. He looked weak and hungry.


    ¡°You did not feed him!¡±, she yelled again.


    ¡°Hey I warned you, do not yell at me¡±, he answered.


    Trey handed his father a cup of coffee he had brought with him and some tacos. Pain relief drugs and the ones he had from the hospital were also here.


    *****


    ¡°Give them the contract¡±, he ordered hiswyer. The man did just that immediately and the family members went through it together. The deal stated that, ¡°To clear off the debt and free the father, the daughter would forever remain his prisoner and twenty seven thousand nine hundred and seventy two dors would be paid by the family in the space of twenty seven years¡±.


    ¡°What!!!¡±, the three family members yelled simultaneously. It was a weird deal.


    ¡°I don¡¯t need you to make a noise here, you either take it or leave it¡±, he said. Andre knew that girl would take any deal so he made it that way.


    *****


    ¡°Do not sign it Vanessa, I am begging you¡±, her  father pleaded. She was being stubborn and had her mind made up. She aggressively took the pen from thewyer and made her signature on the necessary ces. Andre was drinking as soon as she signed, he gave a wicked smile behind his ss.


    ¡°Congrattions Lance, you¡¯ve got a brave daughter¡±, the man said out loud trying to make a mockery off him.


    ¡°I am picking you up very early tomorrow morning. We would not want to runte¡±, Andre said as he allowed the family members to go home.


    *****


    The family remained silent and quiet in the car throughout the journey back home. They all could not believe Vanessa had agreed to remain with a wicked soul for life. Vanessa kept on crying; she was too sad to say a word. Miles¡¯ call came in again. She saw it and then ignored it.


    *****


    ¡°Why is she avoiding your calls man?¡±, Chris asked Miles.


    ¡± I sincerely do not know¡±, he answered.


    ¡°Toe to your wedding with her will be a great thing to me but I¡¯m not sure it will happen¡±, Miles added.


    *****


    Chris¡¯ wedding wasing up soon. The wedding was to take ce in the city hall in Beverly Hills. Miles was toe back to town to be at his friend¡¯s wedding.


    ¡°I know of a way to get her to be present¡±, Miles said.


    ¡°Oh, what is it?¡±, Chris asked.


    ¡°It¡¯s very simple. You just have to ask her yourself¡±, he said.


    ¡°Okay, maybe I will do that. I will make a call, text her and send her one of the invitation cards for the VIPs¡±, he answered.


    *****


    It was past ten o¡¯clock in the evening. Vanessa¡¯s family just had their dinner. It was spicy chicken wings, pasta and some fruit juice.


    ¡°Why did you sign the contract?¡±, Lance asked his daughter. He just sat on the couch with her.


    She was just moody and could not even say a word.


    ¡°I- , I just did the best thing I could think of. I hate to see you there¡±, she answered with her eyes still filled with tears.


    ¡°You shouldn¡¯t have. I am old, weak and dying¡±, Lance said crying also.


    ¡°Let¡¯s just hope for the very best. My head aches¡±, she answered him.


    *****


    It was the next morning, Vanessa was already ready for Andre to pick her up. He said they were leaving early. Her brother gave her a tight hug just minutes after her dad did.


    ¡°He said something about leaving early. Is he going to take you out of town?¡±, Trey asked.


    ¡°Would we be able tomunicate and visit you anytime we want to?¡±, Lance asked.


    ¡°I do not know also, the only way to find out is to ask him when he gets here¡±, Vanessa concluded.

 Chapter 23

    ¡°Fix this tire and let¡¯s get going!¡±Andre shouted at his driver. The car¡¯s true, the one on the right at the back got burst. The driver was already recing it with a spare but Andre could not just take chill pills, he was in a massive hurry.


    *****


    Eight minutester, they were back moving on the road. Vanessa¡¯s house was still over twenty minutes from where he was.


    ¡°Can you not go faster?¡±, Andre yelled again he was not happy with the car¡¯s movement. He was running out of time.


    *****


    ¡°He is here¡±, Trey said calmly as he started crying. Vanessa was crying also. She hugged her brother like she was never going to let go of him. Lance also came in for the hug.


    ¡°That¡¯s enough. Let¡¯s go¡±, Andre yelled, pulling Vanessa with him.


    ¡°Hey wait, I have some questions for you¡±, Lance called him back.


    ¡°Why did you say you are leaving early? Are you going out of town?¡±, he asked.


    ¡°Oh that really, well I am not. I just have a meeting to attend and I want her to go with me¡±, he answered.


    ¡°When can wee visit her or she visit us?¡±, Trey interrupted their conversation with his question.


    ¡°You cane any day but just twice a week. We would be at my house or the club¡±, Andre answered.


    *****


    This sent a relief to them, but not to Vanessa. She had known him so much she knew he had just told lies.


    ¡°You are not going with any clothes. You do not need to go with them. I have my special prisoner¡¯s clothes for you. Drop your luggage and meet me in the car right now¡±, he ordered.


    Saying this, she was so very much convinced he was taking her out of town.


    *****


    About forty three minutes into the journey, after a perfect silence in the car, Vanessa said some words asking Andre a question.


    ¡°Why did you lie to them?¡±, she said authoritatively.


    ¡°You are a prisoner. You don¡¯t ask me questions or tell me what to do!¡±, he answered her very loudly.


    ¡°Where are you f**king taking me to?¡±, she asked loudly.


    ¡°If you won¡¯t shut the f*ck up and don¡¯t yell at me, you are not getting any response from me¡±, he answered.


    ¡°Okay fine. Please where are you taking me to?¡±, she asked in a mild tone.


    ¡°Italy¡±, he answered calmly too.


    ¡°It-, Italy¡±, she stammered. Andre did not respond to her anymore. He had put his headphones on.


    *****


    Vanessa¡¯s head became thend of thoughts. She had different thoughts in her head. Going to Italy was a dreame true. Italy to her was and of memories and she was on the verge of going to create a new memory. She had always loved everything about Italy. Her favorite meals were The Italian Pasta and Pizza. There was an Italian restaurant in Beverly Hills, it was her favorite and most visited restaurant. Her celebrity crush is a football yer in Italy. He is also from Italy. His name is Sandro Tonali. She was a fan of AC Mn, an Italian Football Club in the City of Mn. Her favorite music artist is Elisa Toffoli, an Italian Woman. She was obsessed with the culture of the Italian people. She was feeling happy about it then she remembered, she was going there as a prisoner and not a free person. The sad thoughts continued to flow in her family members were lied to and would be worried about her. It was also here that her mother had travelled to before she was reportedly said to have been involved in a ne crash.


    *****


    Andre already had it nned out that he could fly Vanessa out to Italy. They were going on a private jet, it cost him a lot but it was sessful.


    ¡°I am taking that¡±, he said as she dragged away her phone and gave it to one of his soldiers.


    ¡°Prisoners are not allowed to use gadgets¡±, he added.


    *****


    Andre¡¯s POV,


    There she was again. My cock instantly grew hard as steel. I could almost smell her hair, feel the smoothness of her skin ¨C I could almost feel it.


    The car stopped. I grabbed my jacket and stepped out. The other guys I¡¯d taken with me were already waiting on the tarmac. I greeted the pilot as I entered the ne and sat down in the soft seat. A flight attendant passed me a ss of whisky with a single ice cube. I nced at her. She knew my tastes. I sent her a nk look, while she blushed and smiled flirtatiously. I seized Vanessa by the hand and pulled her with me toward the private part of the jet.


    ¡°Take off!¡± I called the pilot, and closed the door, locking the girl and myself in. I shot out an arm, sping my hand over her neck and pushing her against the wall. I fixed her with a gaze. She was terrified. I closed the distance between us,


    allowed our mouths to touch, and bit her lower lip. She moaned. Her arms hung limply along her body and she stared straight into my eyes. I seized her by the hair and pulled, tilting her head back. Her eyes closed and she moaned again. Such a beauty, so girlish.


    *****


    ¡°Kneel,¡± I growled, pushing her down. She did as she was ordered without hesitation. I purred, praising her submissiveness, and trailed a thumb along her lips. They parted obediently.


    I had never even talked to this girl about this before, but she immediately knew what she was supposed to do. I gently pushed her head against the wall and unzipped my pants. Vanessa swallowed loudly, her enormous eyes still fastened on mine.


    ¡°Keep your eyes closed,¡± I said gently, my thumb moving across her eyelids.


    ¡°You¡¯ll only open them when I tell you¡±.


    *****


    My cock sprang from my pants, rock-hard, almost painfully stiff. It rested on the girl¡¯s lips, and she obediently opened her mouth. Wide.


    You don¡¯t have any idea what¡¯sing, darling, I thought, and pushed my prick all the way in, holding her head so she couldn¡¯t move. I felt her choking, and thrust even deeper. Oh yes, I loved it when their eyes snapped wide open in terror, as if they really thought they¡¯d suffocate. I withdrew. Slowly. Then I stroked her cheek in a tender, delicate gesture. I observed her calming down, licking her lips clean of the thick spittle that came deep from her throat.


    ¡°I¡¯ll fuck your mouth,¡± I said. She was trembling. ¡°May I?¡±


    My face expressed nothing¡ªno smile, no emotion. For a moment, the girl stared at me with those huge eyes, finally nodding her consent.


    ¡°Thank you,¡± I breathed, caressing her cheeks with both hands. I leaned her head further back against the wall and slid myself along her tongue all the way to her throat. She sped her lips around my cock. Oh yes! My hips began to thrust,


    hard. I could feel her fighting for a breath, so I gripped her harder. That¡¯s it! Her nails bit painfully into my thighs. At first she tried to push me away, then to simply hurt me, scratching my skin. I liked it. I liked it when they fought when they were helpless against my strength. I clenched my hands on her hair even harder, seeing the lust in her stare. I couldn¡¯tst any longer. Two more hard


    strokes and I froze, while my jizz spurted out from my shaft, filling the girl¡¯s throat, choking her. I opened my eyes and looked at her smeared makeup. I withdrew a fraction, making some space.


    ¡°Swallow,¡± I growled, pulling her hair once more.


    Tears rolled down her cheeks, but sheplied. I pulled my cock out of her mouth and she copsed back on her heels, sliding down the wall.


    ¡°Now lick it.¡± The girl froze. ¡°Lick it clean.¡±C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.


    I propped my arms against the wall in front of me and red at her menacingly. She hoisted herself up again and grabbed my manhood in one slender


    hand, starting to lick off the remains of my seed. I smiled faintly, watching as she did her best. When I decided it was enough, I pulled away and zipped my pants.


    ¡°Thank you.¡± I offered her a steadying hand as she pushed herself up, standing next to me on slightly shaky legs. ¡°The bathroom is there,¡± I said, pointing her in the right direction. She nodded and headed towards the door.

 Chapter 24

    Trey and Lance had been texting her phone and calling her phone all day, but she did not respond to it. They were slightly worried.


    ¡°He might have taken the phone away from her¡±, Trey said.


    ¡°Oh yes, that is true¡±, Lance answered, before a huge bang was heard at the door.


    ¡°Do not worry I¡¯ll check it¡±, Trey said as she walked towards the door.


    *****


    Five hours earlier,


    Miles had left the town to return to Beverly Hills, California ahead of the wedding and to see the love of his dear life again. He had some issues at the bus stop when his car broke down. He also forgot to pick up his phone¡¯s charger while leaving. His phone ran on a very low battery percentage.


    He had just arrived at Lance¡¯s house, hoping to meet Elsa ¨C her second name and have his phone charged.


    *****


    Andre¡¯s POV,


    I don¡¯t want to call her by her name anymore, she should be called my Mistress. My cock was still very much hard, it was like it did not want her to go. I was still horny as hell so I went to the bathroom to meet her. I need to feel her p*ssy. As I opened the door, I stepped back out almost immediately. She was taking a dump.


    ¡°Hey, don¡¯t you knock on the door?¡±, she yelled at him. Andre smiled and left without responding verbally to her. Vanessa was so pissed and she already had regrets for being submissive to him earlier.


    *****


    ¡°We¡¯ve got an hour left beforending¡±, the pilot announced.


    ¡°Let me have the phone¡±, Andre called out to the soldier he gave the phone to.


    ¡°Why do you want to check my phone?¡±, she asked him as she strolled out the bathroom door.


    ¡°Don¡¯t be so conclusive. I didn¡¯t even ask you for the passcode to unlock it¡±, he answered.


    ¡°Well you are not getting it even if you ask¡±, she concluded.


    *****


    ¡°Why did you decide to move out of Beverly Hills?¡±, she asked.


    ¡°I just need to be around my family, nothing else. It¡¯s more like a vacation for me¡±, he answered her question.


    ¡°Oh really, didn¡¯t you think I¡¯d like to be around mine also?¡±, she asked again.


    ¡°You¡¯ve been asking too much. That is enough  questions for two months¡±, he said not wanting to answer again.


    ¡°You had better answer all my questions now. You did not allow me toe with my girlie pack. I¡¯m definitely going to have your jet, car and house stained¡±, she said.


    Andre was tired of all her questions, so he stood up and went straight to her face. He held her throat up and said,


    ¡°I will definitely rip your throat off if you don¡¯t stop asking me questions¡±


    ¡°Coward¡±, she murmured.


    ¡°What!¡±, he shouted as he tried to hit her but she did not even flinch a little. Vanessa smiled and watched him cowardly let go of her throat.


    *****


    ¡± She¡¯s not here, Miles¡±, Trey said.


    ¡°Do not worry, I will wait for her toe back¡±, Miles answered.


    ¡°She is noting back anytime soon, son¡±, Lance interfered.


    ¡°Then where has she gone to? I can go meet her now¡±, Trey asked.


    ¡°She is now in a happy home Miles¡±, Trey said


    ¡°Vanessa is married?¡±, Miles asked and sounded like he was going to faint.


    ¡°No she is not, but she is in a happy home right now¡±, Lance answered.


    ¡°Have you cleared the debt yet?¡±, he asked in a mild tone.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    ¡°Yes we have¡±, Trey said with a faint smile.


    *****


    ¡°Fasten your seatbelts we are about tond¡±,


    ¡°Fasten your seatbelts we are about tond¡±,


    ¡°Fasten your seatbelts, we are about tond¡±, the pilot announced thrice.


    They had just touched down in Italy. Andre¡¯s mom and sister were waiting for him at the airport. Andre held Vanessa as they both walked down from the airne. His mother Ariana, and his sister Didi sighted him from afar and ran towards him to give him a hug.


    *****


    Vanessa¡¯s POV,


    His mother was a very pretty woman, I could see her winning the Miss World title every year let alone his sister. She was blonde with nice curves and also had the body of a model.


    ¡°These are goals I want to have with my own daughter¡±, I thought deeply. The two women wore matching Gi outfits, their Nike jordans were also cool.


    *****


    Few minutes earlier,


    Didi gave me a deep hug, even Ariana also.


    ¡°You must be my brother¡¯s new girlfriend. You are really pretty. I am so happy, my nephews and nieces will be really handsome and pretty children¡±, she said. I just smiled and blushed a little, then the thought flew into my head that made me shed tears a little, but I had to clean my face before anyone noticed.


    ¡°Only if she knew who I really was to him and why I am here with him¡±, I said to myself.


    Andre threw a wink and wicked smile at me which I understood immediately, for me to cooperate with him and act like we are actually in a rtionship. Didi was so restless and for a grown woman she was really yful. It is surprising how she just continued to bounce around with joy.


    *****


    Andre had just got back from where he got his luggage.


    ¡°I¡¯m really hungry right now, Mom,¡±Andre said. He has not eaten a meal all day, only took some Vodka back on the ne. I was very hungry also, he was not standing close to me, I¡¯d have told him I was hungry too.


    ¡°I am very sure she¡¯s also hungry, should we get pasta at the restaurant or go home and have the girls cook?¡±, Ariana asked.


    I shot a rejection eye, I wasn¡¯t going to do any cooking. He saw me andughed a little. He knew I was never going to cook. Also, he has not had any of my meals, so he would not want to not impress his mom.


    ¡°The restaurant is fine mom, she¡¯s very tired now. They can cook sometimeter¡±, he finally answered her. I just pray the time to cook  for them doesn¡¯te.


    *****


    His mother¡¯s driver had already taken the luggage home with one of the cars there, so Andre will drive us to the restaurant. Ariana was seated with him at the front, I was at the back seat with Didi, I really wished it didn¡¯t have to happen that way.


    Their house was around a five to six hour drive from the airport. That is what Didi said when I had asked her.


    ¡°What is your name, prettydy?¡±, his mother Ariana asked.


    ¡°¡­ hmm,¡­ hmm¡±, I murmured initially a little.


    ¡°Vanessa, Vanessa Warner ma¡¯am¡±, I finally answered.


    ¡°How sweet, soon it would be Federico Vanessa¡±, the woman said, making everyoneugh except me though I knew it was never going to happen, but a fake smile was enough to avoid any suspicions.


    ¡°She is from the US. You are from the US?¡±, she asked again.


    ¡°Yes ma, I am from California, United States of America¡±, I responded almost immediately.


    *****


    I sincerely did not want any more questions, but it seemed like Didi was about to offload a whole lot of them from her brain very soon. I even suspect she has been on google to search for more questions.


    ¡°How did you meet my brother?¡±, Didi asked her first question.

 Chapter 25

    ¡°Vanessa, Vanessa!!¡±, Didi called and tapped her. She seemed unconscious and did not hear Didi¡¯s question. The shock got to Andre and Vivian as they both looked back to check her. Andre turned back while driving but then he hit an ice cream van that was parked by the road side. He quickly hit his brakes to avoid any more idents. The incident attracted a crowd which had to check on both vehicles. The owner of the ice cream van was not inside the van. The lights at the back of the van were broken and the sides of the van had dents.


    ¡°Hope it was not much of an issue?¡±Vanessa asked Ariana who just came back into their car. Vanessa was not unconscious, she just acted that way to ignore Didi and her questions.


    ¡°It was just a little dent to the van and some of the lights got broken. It would cost him around two hundred and twenty five euros to fix it but Andre had decided to double the cost and he is getting some ice creams for us at the moment. He also apologized well¡±, Ariana answered.


    ¡°You scared us when you had not answered Didi while she was tapping you continuously¡±, Ariana added.


    ¡°I was just tired from the stress of today and I¡¯m kind of feeling dizzy¡±, Vanessa lied. Andre entered the car and gave each of them a cone of ice cream.


    *****


    ¡°Let¡¯s go¡±, the young man said as he sat down fully.


    ¡°I am sorry for what I had caused¡±, Vanessa apologized in a mild tone.


    ¡°Baby, it¡¯s fine. Anything can happen anytime¡±, Andre answered. Vanessa moved her head and was shocked with his response. He is really taking the fake rtionship thing seriously. The restaurant they were headed to was just twenty five to thirty five minutes drive away from where they were currently.


    *****


    ¡°Please, don¡¯t tell me my woman is married to another man¡±, Miles asked as he pleaded with Lance and Trey to tell him where she (Vanessa) was at that moment. The father and son stared at each other. Lance, the father, then signalled to Trey, his son to tell Miles what was actually going on.


    ¡°Fine. I will tell you where she is¡±, Trey announced.


    ¡°Okay thank you¡±, Miles replied calmly, waiting curiously to get his answers.


    ¡°It was her idea to help save Dad¡±, Trey said.


    ¡°Wait, what!! Are you saying she¡¯s dead?¡±, Miles asked.


    As if it were nned, the father and son remained mute leaving Miles in a suspenseful situation.


    ¡°My daughter is not dead¡±, the father answered.


    ¡°I was kidnapped by the man who I had the money from, Andre¡±, Lance continued to talk.


    ¡°What!!! Andre!!!¡±, Miles cried out.


    ¡°Would you allow us to talk and quit interrupting?¡±, Trey asked. Miles went mute instantly.


    ¡°He made her sign a contract. To clear the debt and free her father, she had to be his prisoner by switching ces with our dad. His prisoner forever!¡±, Trey said as he burst into tears.


    ¡°Oh my- , Where-, Where are they now?¡±, Miles stammered as he asked. He was more than hurt.


    ¡°We don¡¯t really know. It is wrong to involve the police. Legal contracts were involved¡±, Lance announced.


    *****


    Andre, his family members and his fake rtionship partner (Vanessa) had just arrived at the family¡¯s favorite restaurant to get pasta and pizza. The restaurant name was ¡°E?T¡±.


    ¡°It is one of the best restaurants here in Italy¡±, Didi informed Vanessa.


    ¡°You are wee to E?T¡±, the security personnel at the door greeted the family as he opened the door for them. The chairs and tables were so fancy. It was obviously a restaurant for the rich. Andre had helped them to a table and they all ced their orders from the mesmerizing menu. They all chose pasta only Ariana asked for eggs and fish instead of turkey or chicken. She said she has had too many of them and she wanted to change the routine a little. Andre also ced another order a few minutes into their meal. He ordered two family sized pepperoni pizzas for them to take home. They all kept on eating in peace and silence. They all had good eating etiquettes.

    ¡°So Vanessa, I asked you earlier in the car, how did you meet my brother?¡±Didi finally broke the silence on the table. Andre immediately interfered and said,C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Mom, did you not train your daughter well? Why is she being so unmannered?. She did not take lessons right?¡±, Andre asked.


    ¡°She has bad table manners¡±, he added.


    His mother, Ariana,ughed hard; she had to gulp down some of her fruit juice.


    ¡°She¡¯s just being curious to know about you both¡±, she answered.


    ¡°Well Didi, shut the hell up. You can askter but not now¡±. Andre signalled a warning look to her and a sigh of relief ran out of Vanessa. She was not ready for any other questions. She doesn¡¯t want her answer to be different from Andre¡¯s so she had to be careful. With the way he has been acting, it seemed like Andre knew all that went on in her mind.

    A waiter was passing with some food. His name card on his shirt wore the name Robert. He was really handsome and had blue eyes. He wore a smile as he carried the food.


    Suddenly, Robert tripped over after hitting Vanessa¡¯s chair by mistake and then, the whole food he was carrying was all over Vanessa. Vanessa understood it was an ident, and interrupted Andre as he was about to raise his voice on the waiter.


    ¡°I am really sorry ma¡¯am¡±, the young good looking man said as he was packing up the mess he had made. Vanessa joined him, but Andre wanted her to stop but she opted to continue to help Robert.


    ¡°It is totally fine. idents happen¡±, Vanessa whispered quietly.


    ¡°Please ma¡¯am, let me help you with the directions to the rest room¡±, Robert offered.


    ¡°Okay let¡¯s go¡±, Vanessa said as she stood up to follow him.


    Andre gave a strange look like he was being protective making his eyes follow them as they walked towards the restroom. He was so focused on them that he could almost read their lips.


    ¡°Ma¡¯am I¡¯m really sorry again¡±, he said calmly.


    ¡°Stop it Robert ¡±, Vanessa said as he read off his name from his shirt. His identity card fell off from his pocket and she picked it up to give him. He collected it from her. They had gotten to the rest room passage entrance and the young man turned back to return to his job.


    ¡°Can I have your card?¡±Vanessa asked the young man who was already in love with her beauty.


    ¡°Yes sure you can¡±, he said as he handed her the stic card.  Andre saw all of these so he got off his seat and walked towards them hoping to court some trouble if he finds something unpleasant.

 Chapter 26

    Vanessa was still looking at the identity card he had left with her.


    ¡°He was looking too sweet to be a waiter. He should be a model because of his mesmerizing body and muscles or a fashion star. He also smelt really good and nice¡±, she thought silently as she wanted to get her self clean.


    ¡°He really reminded me of him¡±, she thought. Robert had reminded her of Asher. She started to cry and tear up in the bathroom. She just had to wash her face and get back to her meal.


    ¡°I will be with you everywhere and anywhere you go¡±, a voice said to her ears. It sounded like his but she waved it off and said he does not care about her.


    ¡°Could it really be Miles talking to my head right now?¡±, she thought calmly about the voice.


    ¡°No, not him. He would have probably moved on since I heard he went out of town. I¡¯m sure he left town to get a new girl¡±, she continued to interact with her inner self.


    *****


    Another entirely different voice spoke to her, it made her startle a little bit because it was unexpected.


    ¡°I said again, What was he talking to you about Vanessa?¡±, Andre asked for the second time. She just continued to give him a smirk look. It took her about two to three minutes of his assessing him and the way he pulled up on her. She looked him from head to toe and tried walking out the rest room, but he blocked the way thereby stopping her journey.


    ¡°You are a rude and disrespectful young man. How dare you barge into thedies rest room just like that? Well, I¡¯ve never known you to be a gentleman, that was why Lydia yed you like a piece of shit!¡±, Vanessa said out loud.


    ¡°Who the hell told you about Lydia?¡±, he asked.


    ¡°I don¡¯t know probably when you let that little guy of yours sit at a ce, you would gain some respect and not be treated like a fucking shit piece¡±, she answered. It was Lydia herself that told Vanessa about their rtionship when they initially both met at the club. It was actually Vanessa who gave Lydia his house address.C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.


    ¡°You have no business with my personal life Bitch!¡±, he yelled.


    ¡°You don¡¯t fucking call me bitch ever again, else I would tell your mother and sister the real truth about us¡±, she announced.


    *****


    She pushed him and tried walking out the door, the identity card of the waiter, Robert fell off her hand. She quickly grabbed it and held it tight.


    ¡°Give it to me!¡± Andre ordered.


    ¡°No, why would I do such a thing?¡±, she responded.


    ¡°You are my prisoner and belong to me and me alone!¡±, he informed her. The identity card contained his full name Lucas Robert, his age twenty four years old, his phone number and his house address. Andre wanted to have the identity card to himself so badly they both started to exchange words and made noises attracting other customers and sales representatives in the restaurant.


    *****


    ¡°Mom, I feel there is something wrong with them¡±, Didi said as she discussed what she had observed with her mother while they were the only ones on the table.


    ¡°Baby, I noticed too but let¡¯s watch and see. After all, she is pretty and I pray she is not a spoiled brat¡±, Ariana concluded.


    *****


    ¡°Why are you being protective? I am just a prisoner remember!¡±, Vanessa yelled.


    ¡°Yes, you are my prisoner. My prisoner forever. I have to keep my eyes on you. I don¡¯t trust you or any of these people, they might want to help you escape¡±, Andre replied. The pair continued to fight for the identity card but Andre stopped all of sudden. Someone came in.


    ¡°Why are you fighting?¡±, Didi asked.


    ¡°Why don¡¯t you mind your business Miss?¡±, Andre asked. Didi had juste to check them. They had spent over fifteen to twenty five minutes. She felt Vanessa would need a female hand to help clean herself up.


    ¡°It is your brother, Andre. He is trying to hold my hands so he can walk me back but I do not want that. He is now thinking I want other guys to approach me¡±, Vanessa answered. The response she gave shocked Andre, and he then said to himself, ¡°She is definitely one bad ass of a liar¡±.


    ¡°Awwn, so sweet. Okay I will walk you back instead. Let¡¯s go and hurry up our meal so we can go home. I am really tired and I know you both are tired also¡±, Didi offered. She immediately grabbed Vanessa by her hand. It was where she held the identity card, the card fell down. She tried to pick it up but Andre had rushed for it and had it. Didi did not even notice any of these, so she just pulled Vanessa and they continued walking back. Vanessa turned her back and all she saw was a smiling Andre looking at her before he took a deep look at the card.


    *****


    ¡°I knew she was always a big liar¡±, Andre murmured.


    ¡°It is the waiter. He had given her this card to get in contact with him¡±, he murmured again.


    This young man just drew the battle line. Andre stepped out of the rest room and called Robert, the waiter. The young innocent man went on to meet with Andre. Vanessa saw this and instantly started praying Robert would be fine. The prayers did not work as she hoped. Andre took the young man inside and startedying heavy punches to his stomach and face. Robert couldn¡¯t fight back, he did not understand what went wrong.


    ¡°I definitely do not want to create a scene but the next time you give your identification card to another man¡¯s wife, you will be sent to hell¡±, Andre warned.

 Chapter 27

    Andre did not drop Robert¡¯s identification card. He had it with him.


    ¡°This would be usefulter on whenever you dare step on my toes¡¯ ¡®, he said as he left the rest room.


    *****


    ¡°What took you so long?¡±, Ariana and Didi asked. They were both done with their meals.


    ¡°I had to take a dump¡±, he lied to them. Vanessa was not buying of that, she felt he just told a lie.


    Robert had just walked out the rest room holding his stomach and having a swollen eye. Vanessa saw him and she then became furious. She could not control her emotions.


    ¡°COWARD!!¡±, she yelled at Andre.


    She was fuming really hard. Andre saw the look on her face, released a shocking face and then looked back to see the innocent young man groaning in pain. He sent a wicked smile to her.


    ¡°What happened?¡±, Ariana asked.


    ¡°She is probably thinking about something¡±, Andre answered. Vanessa nodded in agreement.


    *****


    Vanessa¡¯s POV,


    I have barely spent a day here and he is already going after innocent guys. I hope he does not kill every man in Italy because I would definitely continue to make a lot more male friends. I am sick of here (the restaurant), he should just drive me down to my prison yard so I can finally have some peace and quiet. He was out with his mother, she had asked him to have a talk with her at the car. I was stuck here with the question asking freak, Didi. She had been busy washing trending videos on the Instagram app. I was happy with that because I wasn¡¯t ready to talk. I stood up to go talk to Robert, he just walked past our table and acted like he did not see me.


    *****


    ¡°Hey, can we talk?¡±Vanessa asked the young man who was still groaning in pain.


    ¡°What did he do to you? Please tell me.¡± , she asked Robert. The young man remained silent and asked her to leave him. He said he was pleading for his life.


    ¡°Fine¡±, she answered. She was already pissed and instantly had the urge to strangle Andre. She continued to walk back to her table.


    *****


    ¡°Whoa!! ¡°, the people in the restaurant said after the female partner of a guy pped her man to his cheek really hard.


    ¡°What? Why did you do that?¡±, the man asked his girlfriend.


    ¡°You were looking at the girl that just walked past you and you are on a date with me!¡±, she answered. The man felt embarrassed. Thedy stood up  and left the restaurant. He followed her immediately.

    Selma and Club Nexus were not in Andre¡¯s head. The club might end up going bankrupt because it was already losing a lot of money. Selma has been spending the profit extravagantly. Workers were almost ready to quit if they did not see any changes. Andre knew none of these.


    *****


    ¡°Who is that Vanessa girl to you?¡±, Ariana asked her son. They were both outside of the restaurant.


    ¡°She is my girlfriend, mom¡±, he answered.


    ¡°I definitely don¡¯t think so. You both actually act like you don¡¯t love or even know each other. Why are you acting weird and nonchnt way¡±, she asked.


    ¡°I sincerely don¡¯t feel happy right now¡±, she added.


    ¡°I am sorry mom. I will talk to her and we will be good. We should head home now¡±, Andre replied.


    ¡°You can get in the car, I¡¯d get the girls¡±, he added.


    *****


    When Andre entered the restaurant, he saw Vanessa and Robert giggling and talking. Also, some guy was talking to his sister, Didi.


    ¡°You both don¡¯t seem to learn the easy way right?¡±, Andre said as he walked in on them and pushed Robert away causing a stare from the restaurant customers also attracting the presence of Robert¡¯s boss and some security men. The pair startled as he did that, Robert quietly walked away. While they were talking before Andre came, Vanessa had apologized to him and had Robert give her another one of his identification cards. She had kept it well and there was no sign of it when Andre came.


    ¡°I had promised mom I would not cause more trouble. Let¡¯s leave now¡±, Andre said as he pulled her away and they paved their way through the crowd till they had gotten out of the restaurant. She still managed to wave goodbyes to him(Robert).Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

    Andre was already driving them home. The whole car was silent and only the engines and passing vehicles on the road could be heard.


    ¡°What is it that you both pulled out in there?, Ariana asked the fake couple.


    ¡°Maybe you should talk and speak to your son about it¡±, Vanessa answered rudely.


    ¡°What!! Did you just speak to me that way?¡±, Ariana eximed.


    ¡°Hussy, Whore , don¡¯t you dare speak to my mother that way. I can have your throat ripped out¡±, Andre said. He just passed a serious warning.


    Ariana remained mute and was still caught by surprise. Didi ignored them all and was already texting the guy who talked to her in the restaurant. He was really sweet to talk to.


    *****


    They got to the house around past seven in the evening. The house was a very big mansion. It had a veryrge parking lot, a nice garden, a swimming pool, a jacuzzi, gym center and even an outdoor cinema.


    ¡°She will be here for a week or less, just till I get our house ready. We are not returning anytime soon¡±, Andre informed his mother. She was still fuming about what had happened earlier in the car. Vanessa bursted into her room, knelt and pleaded. She really took her time begging Ariana to forgive her. The woman did forgive but gave her a warning.


    ¡± I won¡¯t take that from you or anyone else next time¡±, she said as she hugged her.


    *****


    About an hourter, Vanessa wanted to get some clothes before she had her shower. She walked down to Didi¡¯s room. She knocked on the door continuously, and there was no answer. Didi had plugged in her airpods, they were so loud they couldn¡¯t hear a thing. Vanessa pushed the door open and ran out immediately after what she had seen.

 Chapter 28

    ¡°Oh my, did I really see that happening?¡±, she said to herself. She carefully opened the door to peep again. She could not believe what she had seen. She left immediately.


    *****


    About four to five hourster,


    ¡°hmm¡­Didi can I have some clothes to wear or is it possible to go shopping tonight?¡±, Vanessa asked. They were seeing a movie together at the outdoor cinema of the house.


    ¡°Oh, if you need clothes for the night, I have got some new pairs in my room. I can surely give them to you if they fit¡±,¡±Didi answered.


    ¡°Okay, thank you so much¡±, Vanessa responded with joy over her face.


    ¡°We will go shopping tomorrow¡±, Didi announced. Andre had asked them to go shop for clothing items, bags, shoes and other female essories they needed and he would send over the payments for all. He had already gone to visit his friends.


    *****


    ¡°Can I make use of your phone?¡±Vanessa asked Didi.


    ¡°Yes sure you can¡±, Didi answered as she handed over the phone to her after unlocking with the face unlock feature. Andre got her the phone on herst birthday.


    ¡°You do know we saw you right?¡±, Didi asked Vanessa.


    ¡°Huh? Me? How? Where? When? Doing what?¡±, Vanessa asked.


    ¡°You were taking a peep at us when you came to my room earlier¡±, Didi responded. Vanessa remained silent, it was a wrong thing to do invading others privacy.


    ¡°Don¡¯t be scared, we are fine¡±, Didi made her feel at ease.


    ¡°There¡¯s a lot you would need to know as you stay here¡±, she added.


    *****


    Vanessa¡¯s POV,


    As I opened the door, Andre had his cock fully inside of his sister, Didi. She was riding him so hard. I could not believe it. They were siblings, not even step siblings and this was going on. I felt disgusted and irritated. Instantly, I had the urge to leave the house immediately. While we were talking, Didi started crying.


    ¡°Why are you crying?¡±, I asked because I felt she must be feeling ashamed since I had caught them.


    ¡°He is not my actual brother. We do not share no blood¡±, she answered.


    ¡°What!!, but you said-, he said-, Ariana is who? Who are you?¡±, I asked not being able toplete a sentence after this shock.


    ¡°I am just his prisoner¡±, she answered


    ¡°And I know you are also. I kept asking you the question, How did you meet my brother? Just because I saw it you didn¡¯te here like the other girls¡±, she added.


    ¡°His parents had only him as a child. Ariana is his real mother. His father had the tradition of intentionally hurting people and making them broke so he can offer them loans they can¡¯t pay. He is responsible for your-¡°, that was all Didi said before she fell t to the floor and continued to bleed before she died. I screamed my life out, but a hand covered my mouth from my back. It felt like it had been there the whole time.


    ¡°Snitches don¡¯t leave with us¡±, Ariana said from the loud speaker that was ced from the corners of the house. She was shot by one of the security men. They have clearly been eavesdropping on our conversation. I was scared and kept on sweating profusely. They came to pick the body up and had gone to jump it in the incinerator.Text property ?

    *****


    Since she had shown me the pin to unlock her phone, I quickly managed to change it before I forgot. It was midnight and I was scared as hell. I kept on crying and even prayed so God could take me out of this hell.


    During my praying sessions, a call came in. It was my family members. There were closed circuit televisions (CCTVs) installed in the room. I managed to sneak the phone into my clothes and entered the bathroom. I had texted my brother and father. Trey was the one calling. I ended the call and texted him I could onlymunicate through text.


    ¡°Hey sis, I hope you are doing great? Why are you texting with another number?. It has been hard for Dad and I here but we sure we will be fine. Where exactly are you now? He is also bothered about you¡±.


    ¡°He took my phone away. I am scared I need your prayers. The other girl with me here was killed. This is her phone I am using right now. The ce is nice but really scary. I also feel there¡¯s more things father did not talk to us about. I am not in the United States, he flew me down here to Mno, Italy. I know Dad is bothered about me, just please make sure the old man is fine¡±.


    ¡°What the f*ck! Italy! Andre is a f*cking bastard. Dad is fine. Just a day and someone is already shot to death, I¡¯m scared sis. It is actually Miles that is here. He came and has been wanting to see you. Should I tell him you are in Italy?¡±


    ¡°Miles! Oh so now he¡¯s looking for his lost love. I¡¯d text you the address but it is dangerous to try to take me out of here. I will try to be fine. Gotta go, Byeeee¡±


    ¡°Byeeee¡±


    I had to stop texting so they won¡¯t be suspicious of a thing. I was so scared I couldn¡¯t even shut my eyelids close. I did not sign up for this. God!! Why is Andre and his family so cruel?. She was saying something that he was responsible for a thing. Now I don¡¯t know what it is. Robert had just texted me back but I am too scared to text him back right now.


    ¡°His prisoner¡±


    I was remembering all Didi shared with me. I could not control my tears. I wish I had answered her questions. Now I¡¯m just lost here. As I continued to remember all, their sex scene got into my head and I could not control my body. I was rubbing on my pussy so good. I need to have him inside of me. Masturbating was not new to me. I and Miles did it a lot when I was in college. We would video call and have online sex. I picked up the phone and looked at some porn websites. I tried hard to make sure I pleased myself well. I heard a knock on my door so I stood up to open. As I did, Andre pushed the door open and pointed a gun straight to my head. He could sense the arousal around my body.

 Chapter 29

    ¡°What did she tell you?¡±, Andre asked.


    ¡°Nothing, she said nothing¡±, Vanessa answered.


    ¡°You do know I can kill you right now¡±, Andre said.


    ¡°I swear, she did not say-¡°, Vanessa stopped as she felt the phone vibrating in her gown. Andre walked closer to her and noticed she did not have her panties on.


    ¡°So you¡¯ve been f*cking yourself?¡±, he asked.


    Vanessa remained quiet and moved backwards towards the bed. She was really wet and felt it was the perfect distraction for him.


    ¡°You do know I can never let you f*ck me. Coward!¡±, she yelled.


    ¡°Let¡¯s see about that¡±, Andre answered as she dropped the gun and pushed her t on the bed.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    She managed to move the phone but it fell straight to the floor. She feared the screen might have gone out. He saw her naked body again and his cock sprung out like it had met the heavens.


    ¡°This body would be mine. I bet you.¡±the young man said as he began to rub her thighs. She started to feel vibrations up her body.


    ¡°I would not want to take this forcefully even if I could. Vanessa I want you to Be My Naked Love¡±, he asked her. Vanessaughed and answered him,


    ¡°Only if you do as I say¡±.


    ¡°What do you want mydy?¡±, he asked calmly.


    ¡°First, don¡¯t call me that. Call me Vanessa¡±, she ordered.


    ¡°Okay fine, then what else?¡±, he asked again.


    Vanessa drew him closer to herself, switched positions making him lie t on the bed, she took out some clothes and tied his hands to the bed, kissed his neck, then she moved down his body like she was going to make him give through sex with pleasure and pain. She helped him get his cock out from his jeans, and then she held his balls tight and said


    ¡°I would never be your naked love¡±.


    She jumped down from the bed and ran outside of the room. She had made a fool of him.


    ¡°Nooooo!!!¡±, Andre yelled as he became furious. He tried hard to release himself from the way she had tied him up but it took him some really rare techniques and around fifteen to twenty three minutes and some growls.


    *****


    Vanessa had gone to hide in the deceaseddy¡¯s room. She was really scared because she knew he would have gotten really mad and would want her dead. She moved into the bathroom, she saw some dildos which she felt would help her gain the pleasure she wants and give her some peace of mind. She washed it up in the bathroom and rubbed her self with it. She fisted the huge artificial cock into her p*ssy making her feel she was out of this world. The vibrators worked so well.


    *****


    Andre had the whole security look for her but they did not think of Didi¡¯s room. There was no way Vanessa had a key to the room. True, but Didi was with it when she was shot, so Vanessa picked it up. Soon enough, the CCTV cameras showed them where she was. Andre angrily went there and asked for privacy. They had the room¡¯s camera turned off.


    ¡°You can run but you can¡¯t hide¡±, he said as he pushed the bathroom¡¯s door open. She stood up in fear, but the dildo stuck in her vagina slowly fell out. Andreughed at her and pulled her by her hair.


    ¡°The only punishment you¡¯d get from me now is to fuck me!¡±, Andre ordered.


    He tore off her clothes and ced her on the bed in a sex position he always had loved ¡°The Doggy¡±. Andre filled her p*ssy with every inch of his cock. She moaned out loud. She needed him to put more thrust. She continued to ride on him aggressively. An intensely powerful orgasm ripped through Vanessa,  wrenching a scream from her lungs. Her muscles closed around his cock and he punched into her one final time, growling her name, as his own release hit and his cock pulsed deep inside her. Totally replete, she copsed against him, gasping for breath. He held her close as the aftershocks racked their bodies ¨C it was a hold so tight that it was almost desperate.


    ¡°I¡¯m not going anywhere, Andre,¡± she assured him softly.


    ¡°You say that as if you have a choice.¡±, he grunted.


    ¡°Ass,¡± she chuckled.


    ¡°I mean it, Vanessa . I won¡¯t ever let you leave. I¡¯ll never give you up. I¡¯ll never let anyone take you from me.¡±


    She lifted her head and smiled at him.


    ¡°Then it¡¯s a good thing I¡¯m nning on staying.¡±


    *****


    It was the next morning, Vanessa had just woken up. She has spent over an hour and half crying. She could not believe and imagine she had easily allowed him to fuck herst night. It could be said that they had engaged in a sexual marathon. Andre was insatiable and had impressive stamina, even for azy ass man. He was still sleeping.


    *****


    ¡°Let¡¯s go¡±, Ariana said as herself and Vanessa were heading to do the shopping. She was silent throughout the trip. She missed Didi so much. The store was just a few kilometers from the house. Vanessa had picked the phone from her room. It was halfway good. The screen already had cracks and made it more difficult to type. Miles had called her twenty two times with his two different phone numbers. Trey and her father just left her with two missed calls each.


    *****


    ¡°One day, lots of drama. Do you want to return to the US?¡±, Ariana asked.


    ¡°Yes, of course¡±, Vanessa answered in a mild tone.


    ¡°Well that would never happen, especially after what your mother did to me!¡±, Ariana yelled.


    ¡°My mother!¡±Vanessa asked, shocked by Ariana¡¯s words.


    ¡°We are going to visit someone¡±, Ariana announced.


    ¡°What did my mother do to you please?¡±, Vanessa asked already crying.  When Didi say they are responsible for something. She was probably talking about her mother.


    ¡°We are going to see my grandson. Andre¡¯s child¡±, Ariana answered.


    ¡°Your what?! Andre¡¯s what?!¡±Vanessa yelled crazily.

 Chapter 30

    ¡°Yes, his son. Why are you yelling so loud? He did not tell you about him?¡±, Ariana asked.


    ¡°No, he never said such a thing,¡±Vanessa answered with tears in her eyes. She immediately wiped them off. ¡°What was the reason she was crying?¡±, she thought.


    ¡°The kid¡¯s name is Jason, he is about seven years old now¡±, Ariana told Vanessa, who wore a shocking face throughout her speech.


    ¡°Wow, he did not even say anything about his past rtionships¡±, Vanessa informed his mother.


    ¡°His highschool girlfriend Bianca had him a year after their graduation. Bianca died during the child¡¯s birth so Jason now stays with his mother¡¯s family here in Mn¡±, Ariana concluded. Vanessa was quiet and was thinking of how much more mystery and misery she¡¯s going to find out.


    ¡°Be My Naked Love, that is what he asked me to be.¡±Vanessa said as she read it off one of the envelopes in the car. Ariana was watching her, so as soon as Vanessa tried to reach for it she blocked her. It made Vanessa more curious to find out what it is.


    *****


    About thirty two to thirty seven minutester, they arrived at their destination.


    ¡°We are here¡±, Ariana announced.


    ¡°But it¡¯s the store not your grandson¡¯s house anymore.¡±, Vanessa said even though she was really admiring the exterior decor of the store. Arianaughed out loud, really loud. She walked towards Vanessa and said,


    ¡°Andre has no son. I have no grandson. The journey was boring so I needed to do something. It was just a prank, but he should really tell you about the messy girls he had dated¡±.


    ¡°What the f*ck!!! You got me so fucking scared¡±, Vanessa informed her.


    They bothughed and walked into the store.

    ¡°Mommy, where¡¯s daddy?¡±, young Kelly asked her mom.


    ¡°Baby, I told you he went out to town to do some work. He would be back soon¡±, Michelle told her daughter Kelly.


    ¡°Can I call him to talk to him on videoter?¡±, the young girl asked again.


    ¡°Yes, you can talk to him now.¡±, Michelle told her daughter as she ced a call to her daughter¡¯s father, Miles.


    *****


    Miles saw the call, but he was afraid to answer it where he was. Two reasons; because he did not want Trey and Lance to see him and he was not sure asking for privacy would be nice. They could easily eavesdrop. The other reason was because he was not where he told Michelle he would be. Kelly was already four years old. He had her when her mother Michelle slept with him. He was dating Vanessa but she was far away in college. Michelle got pregnant and refused to get rid of the child. He actually went out of Beverly Hills to spend time with his daughter Kelly because staying here when Vanessa did not want to talk to him was diforting. If Vanessa finds out, she would never ever forgive him. He ended the call and sent a text.


    ¡°Hey Mich,


    How are you? I assume Kelly wants to speak with me, that is why you are calling. Please tell her I am in a meeting. I would call her as soon as we are done. Love you both ¡±


    Miles then shut his phone down.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.

    Vanessa has been picking outfits for the past one hour and a few minutes and she¡¯s been having fun. She basically could have whatever she wanted. While checking one of the bags, a man hit her mistakenly, making her stub her toe.


    ¡°Oh my-, I am sorry ma¡±, the young man cried out. The voice sounded so very much familiar.


    It was Robert from the restaurant.


    ¡°Robert, Robert. We will meet again¡±, Vanessa said as she smiled. It felt like his presence healed her.


    As he offered a hand to pull her up, a cough came from behind him. It was his girlfriend Danica. She immediately helped Vanessa up and let go off her hand. She saw the look on Danica¡¯s face and she said thank you, turned around to continue her shopping.


    *****


    ¡°I need your help¡±, Vanessa turned back as she talked to Robert. Danica was about fuming and turning red so quickly, but Robert held her hand and made sure Vanessa did respect his girlfriend¡¯s presence. He was also very cautious of the wild animal, Andre.


    ¡°Okay, what help do you need?¡±, the young man asked.


    ¡°Can we talk in your car? I¡¯d meet you there¡±, Vanessa asked.


    ¡°Sure, fine¡±, he answered.


    Vanessa quickly went on to get her items checked and packaged. She told Ariana she wanted to put them in the car, but she went inside of Robert¡¯s car instead.


    ¡°How did she know you have a car?¡±Danica asked Robert.


    ¡°Oh, you have a lot of exining to do¡±, Danica added.


    *****


    ¡°That¡¯s so cruel and wicked of him¡±, Danica said.


    She got emotional with Vanessa and they both cried. Robert had driven them to his brother¡¯s girlfriend¡¯s apartment, so that Andre won¡¯t have an easy trace of their exact location.


    ¡°Please I need your help to run back to the United States¡±, Vanessa pleaded with the couple.


    ¡°You know this is risky. We are putting our lives in danger if we try to help you escape from him¡±, Robert said.


    ¡°He could even sue us for kidnapping¡±, Robert added.


    Silence ruled over the room immediately.


    *****


    ¡°Where is Vanessa?¡±, Andre asked Ariana. He just got to the store.


    ¡°She said she wanted to drop her items in the car¡±, Ariana answered.


    ¡°She is not anywhere around here¡±, Andre announced.


    ¡°What do you mean?!¡±, Ariana said out loud as she stood up to join the search.


    ¡°Let¡¯s check the CCTV footage¡±, Andre ordered.


    They hurried up to the room and then watching the footage, they found out she had gone out with a guy and ady. The man¡¯s face could not be identified because he wore a face cap and at no point made a direct look at any of the cameras.


    ¡°We can check the car they came with using the outside¡¯s footages¡±, Andre¡¯s mother suggested.


    This could have been the solution only that the car was parked in a way that from the store footages, the te number of the car could not be seen.


    ¡°We have to find thatdy, Now! and Fast!¡±, Andre ordered.


    ¡°If she really thinks she¡¯s smart, she has messed with the wrong person¡±, he murmured.

 Chapter 31

    ¡°Vanessa!!!¡±Andre yelled out loud even if she wasn¡¯t there. The young woman had managed to take Robert¡¯s identification card from him and switched it with her dad¡¯s. She had a spare of each member of her family identification cards, just because of emergencies. Andre had thought she would be with Robert so he wanted to check Robert¡¯s address from the card.


    ¡°Check her bedroom for any clue¡±, Ariana suggested.


    ¡°Yes go now!, search every corner for a clue¡±, Andre ordered the security men.


    After just twenty five to thirty two minutes of searching, they found what could have been said to be a massive clue. They found the phone she had ced under the bed. It read thirty four missed calls and twenty two text messages. The screen looked extra cracked. One of the messages read :


    ¡°Hey girl, it¡¯s Miles. I have gotten the address you sent. I aming to Italy to get you. It¡¯s risky but get ready. You are going to be free¡±.


    Andre fumed.


    ¡± She must have been on her way to Beverly Hills now¡±, Ariana said.


    ¡°Why is she running away from you? Is she not your girlfriend?! Who is Miles?! What is going on?!¡±, she yelled at her son.


    ¡°Mama, I will answer youter. I have to get her now. The flights for Beverly Hills won¡¯t leave till tonight by six o¡¯clock in the evening¡±, Andre answered.


    ¡°Hey, the both of you let¡¯s go. We are going to meet them at the airport no matter what it takes. I must find her¡±, Andre informed his security guards.


    ¡°Be careful son, I don¡¯t want to lose you¡±, his mother informed him.


    ¡°I will be fine¡±, he assured her.


    *****


    It was Chris¡¯ wedding day. Miles was in the hotel room with his friend. They were both dressed in the same type of clothes ¨C blue suits, white bow ties and really nice Gi shoes.


    ¡°Congrattions man¡±, Miles said as he hugged Chris. The ceremony was due to start in three or four hours.


    ¡°Thanks alot¡±, Chris answered as they continued to hug each other. Miles is not expecting to go well so he decided to tell Chris he would be leaving early.C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.


    ¡°¡­ hmm¡±, Miles murmured for a few seconds.


    Fixing his cufflinks, and putting on the new wrist watch Miles gave him some minutes ago, Chris asked,


    ¡°Is something wrong?¡±


    ¡°Not really, it¡¯s just that I might not stay till the end of the wedding. I want to check on Vanessa¡±, Miles lied. He could not open up on the danger that was going to happen.


    ¡°This is bad but it¡¯s fine, you have always been there for me. You can go see and try to make here with you. You can take some food, drinks and cake to Lance and her brother Trey¡±, Chris answered with a smile. Deep down, Miles could not forgive himself.


    *****


    ¡°I am sure they are currently looking for you¡±, Robert informed Vanessa. It was the next morning, Robert and Danica had some rough sexst night. It made Vanessa who was in the other room get horny and had her fingers to please herself.


    ¡°The one way I suggest you move out of Italy is by train. They might want to catch up with you at the airport. The flight for Beverly Hills leaves tomorrow and they would know this¡±, Danica suggested before she handed her boyfriend and Vanessa a cup of coffee each.


    ¡°Okay thank you. The issue is I don¡¯t have any money with me. I am willing to trade these expensive clothes I got from the store¡±, Vanessa said. It was too catchy to reject the offer. The couple were willing to pay ten thousand seven hundred and twenty five euros for it. They would probably resale and make double the buying price.


    It was fine by Vanessa, she really just wanted to leave Mn, Italy.


    ¡°I have some cash here, I would send the remaining via bank deposits¡±, Robert informed Vanessa.


    ¡°We have to leave by ten o¡¯clock this morning to help you catch the train¡±, Robert added. That was barely an issue as she was already prepared for the trip.


    *****


    The police were already on the search for Vanessa. Ariana made a report and she said Vanessa was kidnapped and not lost. She held evidence from the CCTV footage that she wasst seen at the store. The search was going to involve checking all bus stations, train stations and airports. Robert already got calls from his colleagues at work that he was wanted by the police. They saw him as a suspect. He informed thedies.


    ¡°We will not move to Beverly Hills today. We will move to another city in Italy. We would move to Turin ¡±, Robert said.


    ¡°No problem, anything to move away from this beast of a human¡±, Vanessa said. The couple were good with it. They were both from Turin. They only moved to Mn for jobs and to explore.


    ¡°I will drive¡±, Danica shouted out loud.


    ¡°No, it is dangerous now and we have to move fast¡±, Robert answered.


    *****


    It¡¯s been hours of driving and they were very close to Turin. They talked and vibed well. Thedies even saw a movie together ¡°Just for summer¡±. They had lunch at two restaurants. A friend of Danica just posted on her Instagram story a picture of Vanessa and captioned it ¡°The police said they are willing to offer ten thousand five hundred and twenty five euros if anyone can find her¡±. Andre made all this happen. The greedy Danica was shocked by the news.


    ¡°Robert pull over, I need to talk to you now¡±, she told her boyfriend. He did just that and the pair got down from the car to talk.


    *****


    ¡°No we cannot do that!¡±, Robert shouted. It made Vanessa, who was fast asleep, woke up. She wondered what they were talking about.


    ¡°We offered to help, we should not betray her because of some money¡±, Robert added.


    ¡°Man, be wise. What if we get caught trying to help her? It¡¯s either Andre kills us both or we are sued for kidnapping¡±, Danica answered.


    Vanessa heard this and was shocked. Andre had just made it all worse.


    ¡°You either pick me or you pick her, Robert¡±, Danica informed.

 Chapter 32

    Robert sighed.


    ¡°Please do not make me do this. I am begging you Danica¡±.


    ¡°You know it¡¯s fine, you have just shown me you are in love with her. You can go on and continue your life with her¡±, Danica answered him.


    She removed their engagement ring and was about to ce it on his hand.


    ¡°Okay fine. I will do it¡±, Robert answered.


    ¡°How would we make it happen?¡±, he asked.


    *****


    Vanessa who was already up, heard all of this. She saw his wallet, opened it and took almost all the money in it. She wants to escape, she would need that money.


    *****


    Robert had turned the car around and was heading back to Mn. They whispered while they talked about their n. Vanessa faked her sleep and continued to listen to them. It was like she took a long nap that Danica saw it as an easier job for them. As soon as Vanessa heard the train sounds, she got up.


    ¡°Please pullover, I need to urinate¡±, she cried out.


    ¡°Oh I¡¯m sorry you have to hold a little longer. The train station is close by¡±, Danica answered. It was part of Vanessa¡¯s n to escape.


    *****


    They arrived at the train station. Vanessa acted like a novice and she did not know they had turned back.


    ¡°Please Danica, would you follow me to the rest room here?¡±, Vanessa asked politely. She picked a rope she saw in the car and hid it behind her trousers.


    ¡°Sure. Let¡¯s go¡±, Danica answered.


    As soon as they got out of the car, Vanessa lifted her cap. One man saw her and shouted,N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    ¡°Everyone that is the missing woman with a cash prize for anyone who found her¡±.


    People ran towards Vanessa trying to drag her to themselves so they could im the cash prize. They overcrowded her making Danica lose sight of her. Vanessa started to run away from the crowd who didn¡¯t hesitate but continued to run after her and started a fight.


    ¡°Call the ambnce!!!¡±.


    *****


    ¡°How could you let this happen?!¡±, Robert asked Danica.


    ¡°Don¡¯t let them go!. They are her kidnappers!!¡±, a man in the crowd shouted, wanting people to attack Robert and Danica. They zoomed off in no time but the car suffered some damage.


    *****


    ¡°What the f*ck!!¡±, Robert and Danica yelled out loud together. They just got the news that the house they spent their night in was on fire and got burnt to the least. The firefighters were not able to save a thing. They hurried down there. They have lost the house, the items and the girl.


    It was Robert¡¯s colleague that told him. Andre offered the man eight thousand six hundred and twenty four euros which was eight times his current monthly pay. Andre ordered all their houses to be burnt every single one. He warned Robert, but Robert did not listen. Andre told the young man toe for his pay but he got killed immediately he arrived at Andre¡¯s house and of course incinerated.


    *****


    ¡°About the wedding, there¡¯s something I need to tell you Miles¡±, Chris said.


    ¡°Sure you can go on¡±, Miles answered. Chris was about to speak when he got interrupted by his family members who entered the hotel room with a cake and some gifts congratting him.


    ¡°Come on Chris, the wedding ceremony starts now¡±, his father asked him to follow him. Miles was still a bit curious on what Chris wanted to tell him, but the thoughts on the tragedy that might strike the ceremony bothers him more. Miles had to wait a little longer to arrange the room and have it locked.


    *****


    ¡°What the hell!!*Miles shouted.


    His friend¡¯s bride was his daughter Kelly¡¯s mother, Michelle. This was what Chris wanted to tell him. Michelle was actually Chris¡¯ girlfriend. Chris told Miles he had a girlfriend named Michelle but they never met. Kelly is actually Chris¡¯ daughter. When Michelle and Miles met, she was already pregnant. Chris was not ready so he avoided her till she met Miles. Miles thought that was his child all this while. Chris went back to Michelle six monthster. Kelly knows Chris is her real dad. She had spent more time with him unlike Miles who just flew in months ago. Chris told her to stick with Miles so he could be paying their bills since he doesn¡¯t earn muchpared to him. Miles was so devastated but the wedding ceremony continued anyway.


    *****


    It was all tears round the party. His suit was soaked in blood. Chris has been shot dead. This was the tragic moment Miles was expecting to ur. Miles ran away from the event and was already on his way to Mr. Lance¡¯s house. He was eighty percent involved in the death of his friend. The money he sent to Vanessa was part of the share he got, after he and a gang of bad boys carried out an assignment they were given. They had to trade drugs, but they ended up killing some people. Miles was the only one that has not had their revenge on. The rest of the gang were dead. He expected this someday, so from the very start, the details he used were all Chris¡¯ information. The identification card was also his. The killers were unfamiliar with his face but they knew his name and address. Michelle became unconscious so she fell and had fainted already.


    *****


    Less concerned about his friend, Miles still wanted revenge for what Michelle did to him.


    *****


    ¡°Surprise!!!¡±, Andre shouted at Vanessa who was just waking up.


    ¡°You can run but you can¡¯t hide¡±, he added. Her head fell down back to the bed, she sighed and tears started to drop from her eyes.


    How can she be back to this hell?


    ¡°Well, I have two pieces of news for you and guess what, they are bad news!¡±Andre saidughing.


    ¡°What?!¡±, she managed to ask.


    ¡°One is that you are back with the devil and two is that you are now on movement restrictions orders. You will remain in this room and room alone. You will finally get the prisoner¡¯s treatment you had craved¡±, he informed her. She wanted to beg him but instead she started to cry.


    ¡°Cry, cry my queen¡±, we are definitely just getting started.


    ¡°Your boyfriend (he was talking about Robert) stepped on my toes, so I had every single one of his houses burnt¡±, he added.


    ¡°This is so much fun¡±, Andre shouted as he danced out in joy.

 Chapter 33

    Andre was fierce and started to grow a wicked heart. Vanessa has been healed but she¡¯s under more stress than she actually went through to this date. Andre paid off some maids in the house and told them to return in two months. He wants Vanessa to rece every single one of them he paid off. He wants her to do all the work in order to repay the clothes and other things she took from his mother¡¯s store and sold to Robert and Danica. She did not hesitate and started to work immediately.


    *****


    ¡°You seem to be doing well as a maid rather than someone who wants to be treated right¡±, Andre said.


    Vanessa looked up at his face and released a sigh. She continued to clean the kitchen sink and ignored him totally.


    ¡°Oh wow, now you are deaf¡±, he added.


    Still ignoring him, he pulled her by her waist and immediately she poured the dirty water from the bowl she was using in cleaning on him. Disgust ran over him, he pushed her and headed for his room with anger, mming any door thates through his way.


    *****


    ¡°We killed the wrong person¡±, a man informed his gang.


    ¡°What do you mean?¡±, one of them asked.


    ¡°The real person to kill is Miles¡±, the first man announced.


    ¡°I know him and I know how and where to find him¡±, thedy among them informed the gang.


    ¡°I have always known that guy we killed was innocent¡±.


    *****


    One of the gang members was working with Miles so he had feeded him on the new information. Miles had to go hiding. It was a tough decision to make on where he would hide.


    ¡°I would stay with Lance and his son, I would be safe there for now¡±, Miles thought in his head.


    *****


    After knocking for two hours, there was finally a response on the door. It was the samedy who got his rtionship into mess.


    Selma opened the door and gave Miles a flirty look. She only had her towel on. He was pretty sure she was naked underneath.


    ¡°What in the world are you doing here?¡±, Miles asked.


    ¡°I should ask you that. You have no business here, no family, no girlfriend¡±, she answered him.


    ¡°Who the fuck are you to say that?¡±, Miles asked her again.


    ¡°A part of this family is who I am¡±, she replied.


    *****


    As the arguments went on, Trey appeared and hugged Selma from the back.


    ¡°What do you want Miles?, Why are you both arguing?¡±, Trey asked the pair.


    ¡°I was wondering what she is doing back here¡±, Miles answered.


    ¡°Well, she¡¯s here to stay. I could not do without the love of my life¡±, Trey informed him. Selma and Trey got back to dating few days ago. Selma couldn¡¯t help it. She was always thinking about him and how he treated her. Selma went on to apologize and Trey epted her back into his life.


    ¡°Can ie in?¡±, Miles asked.


    ¡°Yes sure¡±, Trey answered.


    ¡°Where is Lance?¡±, Miles asked again.


    As soon as Trey was going to respond, Selma cut in.


    ¡°You are asking to much questions. I need my man now. Bye!¡±.


    Miles hissed. ¡°Why don¡¯t you just shut the fucking fuck up?¡±, he asked.


    ¡°He¡¯s back at the coffee shop. Selma raised the money to get new equipments in the shop and made it look bigger and nicer. Sales has been rapid too¡±, Trey answered trying to sort out the noise the pair still made.


    *****


    Few hourster,


    ¡°Babe, your phone is ringing¡±, Selma said as she handed Trey his phone.


    Trey and Miles were in the middle of a game. Selma was in the bedroom while the men were ying the FIFA ser game on the yStation four(4) console.


    ¡°Okay thanks, I would answer it after this match¡±, Trey informed Selma.


    The calls wouldn¡¯t stop, it kepting it in like I was very important.


    ¡°We should pause the game so you can answer the call¡±, Miles informed Trey.


    ¡°Okay fine¡±, Trey agreed immediately and called back the number.


    *****


    ¡°Hello, you¡¯ve been calling repeatedly¡±, Trey said as soon as there was a response on the call. It was a female¡¯s voice.


    ¡°Hello sir, Is this Trey Warner?¡±, thedy asked.


    ¡°Yes, any issue?¡±, he asked.


    ¡°Not really, but you have to be at the city¡¯s hospital right now¡±, she informed him. She also added she is a nurse at the hospital.


    *****


    Trey felt it in him that it was an emergency issue, so he informed the two other people in the house as they set to leave for the hospital. Miles wore a mask just be extra protective of himself and they drove off in Selma¡¯s Bentley. She just bought it from the Club¡¯s money. Club Nexus was back in shape and has been doing well recently.


    *****


    They got to the hospital exactly thirty seven minutes from the call. Trey had rushed down to the nurse¡¯s office after following the instructions she gave him.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    ¡°Sir please take things easy¡±, the pretty nurse said in a mild tone.


    ¡°Follow me¡±, she informed them.


    As they opened the door, Lance was seeing on the bed looking lifeless. Several injections had been administered to him and more were stilling in to save his life. Tears dropped from each person¡¯s eyes. The nurse informed them he was rushed down since morning but they could not get his family members telephone numbers. Lance was ina. The nurse also said he had a slim chance of surviving it.


    *****


    It was the same at Italy, Andre¡¯s mother had just been rushed down to the hospital and was diagnosed of low sugar level, high blood pressure and food poisoning. This was unbearable to hear. Andre was furious who could have poisoned his mother. She never ate any meals she didn¡¯t cook herself. It was really confusing.


    ¡°Be prayerful sir, she will be fine¡±, the doctor informed him.


    *****


    ¡°Vanessa!, Vanessa!!¡±, a voice cried out from the other side of the fence. She was in thepound of the house cleaning and worried about Andre¡¯s mother.


    The voice calling her finally revealed himself. He had adder and climbed up the fence of the house.


    Andre was on his way back from the hospital, and from the car saw the man jumping into thepound from over the fence.


    He increased his eleration and drove as fast as he could to reach the house faster.


    The man fell on the floor, but all that didn¡¯t matter.


    Vanessa ran to him and gave him a tight hug. She could not contain her tears and emotions.


    *****


    Soon after realizing the big mess, Vanessa shouted,


    ¡°You need to go now, he will be back anytime soon¡±.


    The man did just that and without hesitation, he went back up the fence with one of thedders in thepound and started running as soon as he sighted Andre¡¯s car.


    The man got lucky and was able to escape the wrath of the young man Andre.


    He gave Vanessa a new phone and has a sim with it. She immediately hid it in one of the holes on a tree in thepound. It was safe from Andre there. She was still thinking of the big risk he took and how he was able to find the house.


    Andre¡¯s horn sounded, Vanessa ran into the house to avoid any suspicions. Andre did not see the man¡¯s face at all. He just could have easily concluded it was a thief but he wouldn¡¯t think that way. No one would dare try that not even by that time.


    *****


    Selma had made spaghetti for dinner but Trey was deep in thoughts about his father¡¯s health. Miles had eaten up but was not inside the house.


    ¡°He will be fine I know it¡±, Trey assured himself and stood up to eat with Selma.


    Asides the bad characters she sometimes showed and being a whore, Selma was a very good cook. She won state championships for best young chef thrice from ages thirteen to seventeen. It was a delicious meal for dinner.


    *****


    Two men were exchanging words and one could easily tell one of them was Miles, but who was the fighting with by this time. Trey ordered Selma to stay back as he went to have a look on what was happening on the frontyard.


    ¡°Oh my-!¡±, Trey screamed.


    Selma could not help but rush out to find out what made her man shout.

 Chapter 34

    The dead had risen.


    The long forgotten man stood directly in front of the house. They all looked each other¡¯s faces in quick sessions. They could not believe he was really alive and was directly right at their doorstep.


    ¡°How-, How are you here?!¡±, Trey asked.


    ¡°Let¡¯s just say dying so easily is never going to be my thing¡±, the man answered.


    ¡°Where is she?¡±, he asked immediately.


    ¡°None of your business and she¡¯s not going to see you!, so go back to your grave¡±, Miles interrupted.


    ¡°What is it with you young man?¡±, Selma asked Miles.


    Miles ignored her. Trey gesturing his hand asked the mystery man toe into the house.


    ¡°Trey, you are letting him in?!, do you even trust him?!¡±, Miles asked.


    ¡°Miles!, Miles!!, Miles!!¡±, Trey said with a loud tone. He was already getting pissed with the way Miles has been acting since he got to the house.


    ¡°Where is Lance and Vanessa?!¡±, the man said out loud.


    Silence ruled over the room. They all kept staring at each other.


    ¡°Someone should answer me!!¡±, the man said, already angered by the intense silence when he asked after Vanessa.


    ¡°You really want to know. Well she-¡°,


    ¡°Miles!!¡±, Trey shouted as he interrupted Miles.


    ¡°She¡¯s not here. She is in Italy¡±, Trey answered the man.


    ¡°What!!!¡±, the man said out loud.


    ¡°How?, Why?, Since when?, Where is Lance?¡±, the man asked immediately.


    ¡°She is married, Lance is dying!¡±, Miles said. Trey jumped up and punched Miles right in to his face with a lower jab.


    ¡°My father is not dying. My sister is not get married to a mad man¡±, Trey shouted at Miles who was still trying to recover from the punch.


    ¡°Babe, calm down¡±, Selma said pulling Trey towards her.


    ¡°Let them continue till someone answers me¡±, the man said.


    ¡°What Miles said is true¡±, Selma informed the man.


    Trey looked at her right in the eye, stood up and left for the bedroom.


    ¡°Babe!¡±, Selma said running after him. She waste as he mmed the door behind him and locked it immediately.


    ¡°I know that is why you are acting this way. You let her leave your hands, so me yourself¡±, the man said to Miles.


    Miles jumped up from the chair and tried to punch the man, but the man pulled out a gun and pointed it to him. Immediately, Miles resisted and sat down back.


    ¡°We are going to get her back¡±, the man said in an authoritative and assured tone.


    *****


    It was the next morning and they were immediately set to leave for Italy. Trey and Selma were definitely staying back to keep eyes on Lance who is still at the hospital.


    ¡°My driver would be here by eight o¡¯clock this morning¡±, the man said. It was still past six o¡¯clock in the morning. They all had coffee and toast for breakfast.


    Trey could barely get some sleep. He only spent his night sick and worried about his sister and father.


    ¡°We are going into the Lion¡¯s Den¡±, Miles announced.


    ¡°You do not have to be scared. If we are going to the Lion¡¯s Den, we ourselves be lions¡±, the man answered sipping more a little water from his bottle.


    ¡°Don¡¯t you dare say that, you are immortal doesn¡¯t mean I am¡±, Miles said staring at him furiously.


    ¡°You can stay back and I¡¯d tell her you are fine. I will also tell her you are happy without her¡±, the man said inughing. He knew obviously that it would have Miles triggered and the young man did not disappoint.


    ¡°Fine, I am going. If anything happens to me, I¡¯d haunt you till death¡±, Miles threatened.


    ¡°You can¡¯t even face Vanessa, you are threatening me¡±, the man addedughing really loud. Trey and Selma giggled too. Miles angrily stood up and went outside the house.


    ¡°He is going to be fine, trust me¡±, the man assured Trey and Selma.


    ¡°We are going to have lots of quarters and arguments on the way though, but i will handle him¡±, he added.


    *****


    Andre got to the house and was really troubled about the man that went over his fence. It has been twenty six minutes and none of the guards confirmed the man had gotten to the building.


    ¡°Where is Vanessa?!¡±, Andre asked.


    ¡°Where is she?!¡±, he asked again.


    ¡°We don¡¯t know sir¡±, the guards murmured silently.


    ¡°What!!, look for her now!!!¡±, Andre ordered.


    Vanessa had locked herself up in one of the bathrooms panicking hard. Her breathing was heavy. She sensed trouble.


    *****


    ¡°Sir!!¡±, one of his personal guards called out.


    ¡± Is it about Vanessa?¡±, Andre asked.


    ¡°No sir¡±, the guard answered.


    ¡°Then what?!, Speak up and don¡¯t waste my time.¡±, he ordered.


    ¡°She¡¯s gone¡±, the guard said in a mild tone.


    Took Andre some seconds to realize his mother was in the hospital. The doctor had just called for Andre to pick up the lifeless body. Andre fell to the floor and all that was seen was endless drops from his eyes to the floor. She was actually all he had.


    Vanessa saw this from one of the windows, she rushed to him and gave him a hug. She tried calming him. It was almost to no avail, until she raised his head up and gave him a kiss on his lip.


    Andre was shocked but it did not stop him from enjoying the moment. The kisssted for approximately a minute and some seconds, but it was worth every bit of that time.

    ¡°We are set to go, that should be my driver knocking¡±, the man said to Trey and Selma.


    ¡°No, that is not him¡±, Selma answered.

    Vanessa was still shocked by her actions. Andre was shocked too.


    ¡°You are going to be fine¡±, Vanessa whispered to him.


    ¡°How sure are you?¡±, Andre said as he fell to her shoulders and continued crying. The tears would not stop.


    ¡°Help me get him up so we go inside¡±, she asked of his guards help. Andre signalled a stop sign showing his full palm towards them. He wanted to stand by himself.


    The pair held hands as Vanessa walked him in.


    He also ordered that the body should be picked and ready to be buried at the house the same day.

    ¡°Selma told me of his ns, so I wore a bulletproof jacket and a cap which was also bullet proof, beneath the cap I wore a tiny helmet too¡±, Asher informed Miles who wanted to know how he was not dead.


    ¡°How did you know?¡±, Miles asked Selma.


    ¡°Andre loves women. It was easy¡±, Selma answered.


    ¡°So where were you all this while? and how about your family?¡±, Trey asked him.


    ¡°I moved out the country to find time to explore and think of a good ce to settle down with Vanessa¡±, Asher answered.


    ¡°Hey , What on earth do you mean settle down?¡±, Miles asked. The statement got him angry.


    ¡°Since you ditched her and left her, we became a thing. I was ready to propose to her until I heard of what Andre did¡±, Asher answered.


    ¡°Selma¡¯s been of good help. I mainly have her to thank. She¡¯s the reason I am here alive. For my family, I would pay a visit to them at the right time with my wife¡±, He added.


    ¡°This is some good news. I have a good detective as my woman¡±, Trey said sharing a kiss with  Selma.


    ¡°How about you Dean?¡±, Selma asked.


    ¡°I was not really shot¡±, Dean said.


    ¡°Lies, you were. I was there¡±, Miles interrupted.


    ¡°Shut the fucking hell up Miles¡±, Asher said out loud.


    ¡°You¡¯ve been acting like a fool and a little child all day¡±, Selma said to him.


    ¡°I had a sack of animal blood in my clothes¡±, Dean said.


    ¡°Why?¡±, they all asked immediately.


    ¡°I was in love with Vanessa, she was in rtionship with this ingrate soul Miles. I wanted to show how much of love I could prove to her, so I hired a gang of bad boys to attack us and asked them to shoot Vanessa so I could jump and take the bullet for her. It was not a real bullet or gun. It was fake and it had a pointy fake bullet that could pierce the sack open and made the fake blood flow¡±, Dean exined.


    ¡°Doing this, everyone would think you are dead. What were you doing since you were alive?¡±, Asher asked.


    ¡°I was not doing well at school. I needed to do something else. I was so much interested in making money outside academics. I wanted to be a chef¡±, Dean answered.


    ¡°So I went out of town, started a mini restaurant on the streets of New York. After some while, I made a lot of money and now I own six restaurants in New York, three restaurants in Chicago and two here now¡±, Dean added.


    ¡°Your family?¡±, Trey asked.


    ¡°My mom and dad diedst year from the fire outbreak at our house. My younger brother and only sibling knew about all this¡±, Dean said quietly.


    ¡°Are we going to continue this wee party or save my girl?¡±, Miles asked.


    ¡°We are saving Asher¡¯s wife and not your girl¡±, Dean said to him making everyoneugh at Miles.


    They all headed for the sweet rides and set of to the airport. Selma and Trey hugged them goodbye and wished them safest of journey.


    ¡°Please make sure Vanessa is safe and the wild dog Miles doesn¡¯t feed on her¡±, Selma said.


    Miles heard this and raised a middle finger sign to her from inside of the car. It was really a luxurious ride.


    ¡°You all think this is how the fairytale will end, Asher and Vanessa, Hell NO! , I will end you for good Asher¡±, Miles said to himself.

    The burial session had beenpleted. Her friends and some family members who were able to meet up were all gathered round the house. It was a very sad moment. Andre was really not concerned about it like earlier. His heart had melted. He was thinking about the girl that kissed him hours ago.


    ¡°Why did she?, Why would she?, Does she love me with all these I have done to her?¡±, he questioned himself severely.


    ¡°Could she really heal my wounded heart?¡±


    ¡°The ring in mom¡¯s room. She said I should make sure I give it to the woman I love on the day she dies¡±, Andre remembered immediately.


    He hurried down to the room, stopped by a guard.


    ¡°Get Vanessa to meet me in my Mom¡¯s room¡±, Andre ordered.


    In just four minutes, Vanessa was already knocking on the door of the bedroom. Andre opened up and ushered her in. He let the guards leave, he needed the privacy.


    ¡°How would I cope without her?¡±, Andre asked Vanessa.


    She was still lost and confused. This man made a maid few days back and now he is talking to her like she is married to him. She remained silent.


    ¡°Why did you kiss me?¡±, Andre asked pointing a gun to her.


    She stood up from the bed in fear.

    ¡°Can-, Can you please do it again?¡±, Andre asked in a mellow tone.


    ¡°I-, I-, I don¡¯t¡±, she was stammering as he grabbed her by her waist and started kissing her passionately.


    Vanessa managed to set her self loose.


    ¡°What? Why did you stop?¡±, Andre asked. He sounded like the kiss was the oxygen he needed to live.


    ¡°I am just a prisoner and maid here¡±, Vanessa said to him quietly.


    ¡°No!, Never!!, Not anymore!¡±, Andre shouted as if he was in pains.


    ¡°Then who am I?¡±, she asked.


    ¡°Will you be my girl?¡±, Andre asked showing her a diamond ring he had just drawn from his pocket.


    ¡°Oh my-¡°, she screamed.


    ¡°We don¡¯t even talk. You¡¯ve always treated me as, as-, Yes! I will marry you¡±, Vanessa said out loud dropping tears from her eyes.

    ¡°What?!¡±, Andre said in shock.


    ¡°Yes I do not love you¡±, she said again as she removed the ring and ced it down on the bed.


    ¡°I can never marry you¡±, She added.


    ¡°Why did you say yes earlier?¡±, Andre asked in a mild tone.


    ¡°I wanted to make you feel hurt the way you¡¯ve also made me feel. I put your hopes high to crush you instantly. You don¡¯t love me. You love my body and I don¡¯t love you or your body¡±, she answered.


    Vanessa walked out on him, Andre pulled her back and tried to give her a kiss. She struggled and managed to push him on the bed. She ran out of the bed room with a fast pace.


    Andre mmed the bed in anger. He felt used and yed so cheaply. The ring fell from the bed and had rolled out the door. Andre had not noticed it was gone. He would be more devastated.

    The trio were already in flight to Italy. Miles and Asher were asleep. Dean was seeing a movie on the airne. It was his favorite thing to do. He made it a tradition whenever he was around Vanessa.


    ¡°How would she react and what would she think of me when I see her?¡±, Dean thought to himself.


    ¡°We touchdown in thirty seven minutes¡±, the pilot announced.


    Asher woke up and headed to the bathroom, Miles was awake too. He followed him behind with a little knife.

    ¡°What do you want?¡±, Asher managed to ask.


    ¡°Stay away from Vanessa. You can never get married to her¡±, Miles answered.


    Asher managed to hit Miles with his elbow on his lower abdomen making the armed man flinch and let lose.

    ¡°You got lucky this time. Next time I won¡¯t spare you¡±, Miles whispered to Asher who was at the doorway of the bath room.


    ¡°Ouch!¡±, Asher shouted in pain. The bastard Miles tore his skin with the knife while he walked out.

    *****


    ¡°You want the phone,e get it¡±, a voice behind her said. It was the ruthless man, Andre.


    He saw the phone while taking a stroll in thepound. A rodent had probably pushed it out of the hole. Vanessa followed him to get the phone.


    As soon as she got in, Andre let loose of the towel he wore. His cock sprung. She saw it and tried to go out, but the door was already locked behind by his personal guard.


    ¡°I asked you to be my naked love but you refused, I guess I just have to without asking¡±, Andre said as he walked towards her.


    He eventually caught up to her after she was moving round trying to avoid him. He pinned her to the wall making her face the wall and not him.


    Andre spanked her ass. It was a huge turn on for her. She always enjoyed pleasure and pain.


    ¡°You are mine¡±, he whispered to her biting her neck slowly.


    He gave her all sort of kisses to her neck. She was turned on. It got her wet. He started to use his cock around her ass. She turned immediately to face him. Vanessa slowly pushed him to the bed.


    She got down and feasted on him. She had every inch of his cock in her mouth. She sucked him so good. He had several orgasms in her mouth. Andre ced her on the bed, he kissed her thighs up to her vagina. Vanessa aggressively took every piece of clothing she was wearing. He ced his finger on her clit and kept rubbing slowly. She moaned slowly. Vanessa wanted him inside of her. He continued then eventually let his tongue on her. She licked and sucked her clit continuously.


    Vanessa screamed. Andre had just released a full thrust inside her. He ced her legs on his shoulder and continued to fuck her.


    ¡°Yes, fuck me, show me you want me¡±, Vanessa cried out.


    Andre was breathing heavily as he continued to fill her with every inch he¡¯s got. They both moaned out loud.


    ¡°Who is your daddy?¡±, Andre asked.


    ¡°Just fuck me and don¡¯t ask me any question¡±, Vanessa answered.


    Andre did just that. He would spank her or even call her dirty names. She was a brat, she liked it. Andre stopped all of sudden.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Why did you stop?¡±, Vanessa asked.


    ¡°This shit is not protected¡±, Andre said.


    ¡°I love you so I don¡¯t fucking care, just fuck the hell outta me¡±, Vanessa answered.


    This turned him on and it released a fire power. Andre used his fingers and cock to make her vagina go through hell. She loved the pain.

    The men had gotten into the house. The guards did not disappoint, they let them in as soon as they got there. The guards also told them were Andre and Vanessa was. The men hurried down to the room.


    The room was soundprooffed, so they couldn¡¯t hear a thing from the outside. The guard at the bedroom door refused to hand them the key. Asher threatened to kill him, so he did immediately.


    ¡°Could they be fucking right now?¡±, Miles asked.


    ¡°Not possible, she would never allow him to fuck her¡±, Dean answered.

    ¡°Hey, get in¡±, Selma said to her.


    ¡°From Trey?¡±, she asked.

    She had a sculpted figure which was twine-thin. Her waist was tapered and she had a burnishedplexion. A pair of arched eyebrows looked down on sweeping eyshes. Her delicate ears framed a button nose. A set of dazzling, angel white teeth gleamed as she blew gently on her carmine red fingernails. It was a pleasure to see her flowing, moon shadow ck hair. Her enticing, constetion blue eyes gazed at me over her puffy, heart shaped lips. She had a bouncy personality and a sugary voice, which I adored. Not content to be just another drone, she wore vibrant clothes.


    ¡°Why are we not moving?¡±, Bianca asked.


    ¡°It is because I want to kill you¡±, Selma answered in a cold tone.


    ¡°Fuck who are you?¡±, Bianca asked. She was scared so she pulled out her phone to call Trey.


    ¡°Why did you do that?¡±, she screamed after Selma snapped her phone away from her hand and sat on it.


    ¡°Now you listen to me¡±, Selma said pointing a gun to Bianca.


    ¡°You scream, you die¡±.


    ¡°You do not cooperate, you die¡±.


    ¡°You will still die anyways¡±.


    ¡°Lance is dead. I do not think Trey wants talk to anyone now¡±, Selma informed her.


    She reacted with a shock face and was about to drop some tears from her eyes. It was as if her vision went blurry.


    ¡°Here is six hundred and seventy five thousand dors in this bag. You take this and stay away from Trey for good. He does not have your number anymore, you shouldn¡¯t also¡±, Selma said showing her the heap of cash in her Louis Vuitton bag.


    ¡°Fuck, no! Never!! You are Selma!, You sent the text to meet up. I knew Trey always calls back, he never texts¡±, Bianca said to her angrily.


    Selma looked at her and shook her head. She was about pull the trigger.

    Over the voicemail,


    ¡°Hey Trey, sorry about Dad. I just wanted you to know I love you and would never forget you¡±, Bianca said as she fell straight to the floor in the bush.


    Selma shot her, picked up the bag of money amd drove off. She also took the phone, smashed it and had it thrown deep inside the bush. The coast was clear, no one definitely saw what had just happened.


    Selma drove at a speed of two hundred and thirty kilometer per hour.


    ¡°Bitch was ready to take money for her man¡±, Selma said hissing as she continued to drive.

    Seeing the men, Vanessa managed to slide off from Andre¡¯s cock. Her vagina was drooling and his orgasm rolled down her thighs as she looked up to face them.


    ¡°I am so fucking done here¡±, Miles and Dean said simultaneously.


    Shock ruled over Andre¡¯s and Vanessa¡¯s face seeing Asher standing right in front of them alive.


    ¡°Enough of this torture Andre, she ising with me¡±, Asher said out loud in huge disbelief.


    ¡°I fucked her, you want to fuck her too?¡±, Andre said.


    This situation made Vanessa cry. She managed to get her dress on and catch up with Miles and Dean, but the guards wouldn¡¯t let her pass through. Andre signalled she should be blocked.


    Asher punched Andre right in his left eye, therefore starting a brawl. The guards started fighting each other. Asher managed to beat the hell out of Andre, grabbed Vanessa and was heading to the car.


    Miles saw that Asher was about to leave them behind, he started to call for Dean¡¯s attention so they could meet up with them, but Dean had been shot and was bleeding profusely from his stomach.


    Miles grabbed his gun and ran after Asher who was about getting away with Vanessa. Miles fired a bullet towards them. It was headed for Asher. He missed.


    He took another shot and this time, he was sessful. It was a direct hit to his head. Asher was finally dead. Miles fell to the floor so she couldn¡¯t see he was responsible for the murder, but someone else did see him.


    He ran towards her as if nothing happened. He threw his gun into the bush. Miles carried her into the car, started the engine and drove off. Andre was still unconscious. He fought with Asher naked, he had been hurt on his balls.

    ¡°Who the fuck are you?, you have to take things easy man¡±, Roberts said to Miles.


    Miles almost threw a fist to his face, but Vanessa cut in.


    ¡°Stop this you both, Miles please!. Andre is probably on his way already¡±, Vanessa said.


    Well, she was wrong. Andre was grieving in pains. He was the only being alive in the house. Andre is managing to crawl out the bedroom door to get his phone and call a doctor.


    ¡°Okay fine but tell your boyfriend not to step in mynes¡±, Miles answered.

    She heard him butpletely ignored.


    ¡°Oh yeah, you won¡¯t say shit just because you are clearly a whore¡±, Miles whispered to her ear.


    Vanessa could not help but shed tears. It shouldn¡¯t be him to say that to her.


    Robert was confused but remained silent and quiet.


    *****


    The train stopped at the station, just a six to ten minutes walk to the airport.


    They got noodles and chicken at a restaurant close to the airport.


    ¡°Cover me¡±, Miles said.


    ¡°Why?¡±, Roberts asked.


    ¡°Just please do as I fucking said¡±, Miles answered.


    They all did and Miles escaped death.


    ¡°Why did you ask for a cover?¡±, Vanessa asked.


    ¡°Private but yeah I don¡¯t want to die now¡±, Miles answered.


    The murderers of Chris followed Miles down to Italy. They have not lost track despite him asking for a cover. As Miles walked, he was still in the circle the murderers made. They were all around him but he could not notice.


    Vanessa was disturbed, she really wanted to get on that ne home. Nevertheless, the sad news that her father had just passed on has not gotten her yet. Miles did not say anything about her family when she asked. He was more disturbed about his safety.


    *****


    It has been three months since the incident at Andre¡¯s house, but still nothing has been heard from him or his family.


    Vanessa on arrival to herte father¡¯s house, heard two different news but only that of her dad mattered the most. She spent days and nights crying. Roberts was herfort all through. He stayed with them since his arrival in the US. Although, Miles gave him a tough time.


    ¡°Hey, where is she?¡±, Miles asked Roberts.


    ¡°Sleeping¡±, he answered.


    ¡°Okay, tell her I am off to meet someone. Take good care of her¡±, Miles said to Roberts.


    ¡°Sure, take care¡±, Vanessa answered from the room.


    They were all at Trey¡¯s house. One of the houses he got off Selma. Trey and Selma were at the hospital at that moment.


    The second news was that Selma was pregnant and Trey was responsible.


    *****


    ¡°I must find who fucking ended my son¡¯s life¡±, Asher¡¯s Dad, Mr Lorenzo said.


    He already sent experienced armed men to get Miles who was still followed by Chris¡¯ murderers.


    Miles was not safe anymore but he did not know this.


    *****


    Few hourster,


    A picture of Miles was sent to Vanessa. His throat had been cut , his arms were separated from his body and his balls were fit into his mouth.


    Vanessa¡¯s tears would not end. She had suspected Andre to do this, but Andre was locked up in prison for the amount of deceased beings in hispound. He could not remember anything about Vanessa or anyone else, he suffered a knock and lost some of his memory. All Andre could remember was histe mom.


    *****


    ¡°Hey, your phone¡±, Vanessa handed Roberts his phone, she was ying a game on it but a call came in.


    ¡°Hello¡±, Roberts said to the unknown caller.


    ¡°Hey, it is Danica¡±, the caller answered.


    ¡°Oh, hi. Need help with something?¡±, Roberts asked.


    ¡°I miss you and I need you back in my life¡±, she said pleading.


    ¡°I am sorry but you¡¯ve lost that man. I have moved on and I am happy now. I have a wife¡±, Roberts answered.


    Vanessa was shocked with the response. She said to herself  ¡°A wife?¡±.


    ¡°Take care of yourself, Miss Danica. Bye¡±, Roberts answered.


    Roberts ended the call and instantly had her phone number blocked.


    ¡°hmm¡­., a wife?¡±, Vanessa asked.


    ¡°Yeah¡±, Roberts answered.


    ¡°How? I never met her¡±, Vanessa asked.


    Roberts went on his knee and brought out the diamond piece from the top left pocket of his shirt.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    ¡°Vanessa, would you marry me and be mine forever?¡±


    Vanessa jumped from the bed in awe.


    ¡°Yes, yes!!!¡±, She answered as she jumped and gave him a hug.


    *****


    ¡°Hey¡±, the prison warder called out to Andre.


    ¡°Yeah¡±, he answered.


    ¡°You have got a visitor¡±, the man informed him.


    Andre was caught by surprise. Who cared about him?


    ¡°You only got two minutes¡±, the warder informed them.


    It was Lydia. How the hell did she know he was in prison?


    ¡°Hey baby¡±, Lydia said as she saw him.


    ¡°What the fuck are you doing here?¡±, Andre asked.


    ¡°I wanted to apologize for robbing you. Only for me to find out my lover was behind bars here in Italy¡±, she answered.


    ¡°A snack?¡±she asked.


    ¡°Yeah, I have not had a nice meal since i got here¡±, he answered.


    She gave him a food pack of burritos and chicken.


    Andre hurriedly dived in and started eating.


    ¡°Hey, time is up¡±, the warden announced.


    Andre waved bye to Lydia as he grabbed his lunch back behind bars.


    Lydia signed in her name as Roselyn just because of what she had done.


    The food she gave Andre was poisoned, and in twenty five minutes from her departure, Andre was lying dead in the prisonyard.

 Chapter 40

    ¡°How is she dead?, She just left here minutes ago¡±, a policeman asked rhetorically.


    They managed to chase down Lydia but found her by the roadside dead.


    Lydia wanted to end the life of Andre¡¯s and her life too, so she ate some of the poisoned snack she had made for Andre.


    *****


    Two weekster,


    ¡°He has note for you yet¡±, Roberts said.


    ¡°Yeah, worried about that also¡±, Vanessa answered.


    They are surprised Andre had not showed up. The news of his death had not gotten to them.


    ¡°I want to ask you something?¡±, Vanessa said to Roberts. They were having lunch at the park.


    ¡°Yes sure¡±, Roberts answered hurriedly filling his mouth with a bite of tacos. He gulped down some apple juice too.


    ¡°Are you really sure you are going to make me and this child live happy lives?¡±, she asked.


    ¡°I promised , I swore , and I gave my word. I would not disappoint you¡±, Roberts answered.


    Vanessa released a sigh of relief. She was only sixteen weeks and three days pregnant. It was Andre¡¯s child of course.


    *****


    Trey and Selma were out of town with their unborn child. Selma was twenty five weeks and six days pregnant. Selma had always wanted to have her children in Canada and not in the United States of America. She was carrying two children.


    ¡°How well do you think Roberts is good for your sister, Vanessa?¡± Selma asked Trey.


    ¡°Well, he seems to be a good man, patient, caring and she looks happy with him¡±, Trey answered.


    ¡°He is finally her Romeo, not like the bastard Miles. I would have still preferred Asher for her.¡± , He added.


    ¡°Yes, Asher was the best of them all.¡± Selma replied.


    *****


    Roberts is actually Andre¡¯s step brother.


    This is actually not known to Andre, his mother or  even the father himself.


    Roberts knew this when he was twelve years old. His mother told him the truth about his father and how he was born.


    Roberts was born in a smallmunity in  Rome, Italy. His mother, Louisa was a maid in Andre¡¯s father¡¯s house also in Rome.


    Andre¡¯s father, Micah always wanted everything good and luxurious. Micah had an obsession with women, he could not get his eyes off them. Andre¡¯s mother went to visit her own mother, then left her husband at home with the maid and three security guards. Micah was so attracted to his maid, he wanted toy in bed with her. He offered to pay Roberts¡¯ mother Louisa, one hundred and twenty five thousand pounds if she wouldy in bed with him. It was multiples of the ie she earned monthly. This did not make her flinch a bit, Louisa rejected the offer immediately.


    He doubled the offer, she rejected still. It got him more interested in her, so he tripled it. To her he was going to offer her the huge sum of money, but Micah had other ns.


    She agreed to the tripled price, they had sex. It was more of a marathon sex. Micah had the stamina of two oxen and the inches of a horse. He was a man of pleasure and pain. He made it look like he was really going to make her work for that huge some of money. It was not protected, so that was how Roberts was born .


    Despite the rough sex, Micah had his guards throw and chased out Louisa from his house without giving her a dime from his money.


    *****


    Roberts was in danger. He was known as Micah¡¯s son. Andre was the one wanted by Mr. Lorenzo and another Italian mafia, Mr. Buffon.


    Buffon and Lorenzo were both seeking revenge for their son¡¯s death, but their investigations only showed that it was the child of Micah Federico that was responsible.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    After few weeks of investigation,  it was only Lorenzo that found out that his son¡¯s killer was Andre Federico who was dead in prison. Buffon¡¯s investigators were not thorough with their search, they only found Roberts as the only son of Micah¡¯s.


    Andre killed Buffon¡¯s son at the Casino, after Buffon¡¯s son spoke ill of his girlfriend, Lydia. They have always hated each other since Lydia was his coursemate in college. Lydia never liked Owen(Buffon¡¯s Son) because he was mean and a bully to girls. He disrespected their gender, ever since his mum cheated on his dad. Owen shot his mum and her new man though.


    *****


    Vanessa spent a lot of nice time with her endangered man, Roberts,  but memories of the past would not stoping to her.


    ¡°Hey, what has got you thinking?, You have been silent since we got here¡±, Roberts asked Vanessa.


    She was looking pretty unconscious and it was like she never heard him talking, he then tapped her twice.


    ¡°Sorry, sorry. I have just been weak, that is why I am like this¡±, she answered.


    ¡°Oh my, should I get you to the hospital?¡± Roberts asked.


    ¡°No, I am fine I just need water¡± she said picking up the bottle beside her tire gulp down some water.


    Roberts was a little worried, so he decided to not let his eyes off her. At some point, he really wish the child was his. He was not sure to open up about being Andre¡¯s step brother.


    *****


    Vanessa had spent nights after nights crying despite her pregnancy conditions. She was not getting any sleep.


    ¡°I really wish I had told him what was really going on with me and how i met Andre¡±, she said to herself thinking of her dad.


    ¡°Hey, you didn¡¯t tell me too¡±, Roberts interrupted. She was loud with her thoughts so it got him concerned.


    ¡°I really wish I could start talking now, but bringing bad memories back into my present is not something i want to do now¡±, she answered.


    ¡°Okay fine. Please would you get some rest?¡±, Roberts asked politely.


    ¡°Soon i guess. Sleeping with this big belly is very difficult¡±, she answered.


    Immediately, a notification from her phone caught her attention. She picked it and unlocked it.


    ¡°Wo!¡±, she said out loud.

 Chapter 41

    ¡°This is so nice¡±, Vanessa said.


    She was still staring at her phone. Trey just sent her an image of his wedding invitation card. He was getting married to Selma. Although, Trey wanted the wedding ceremony after their child¡¯s birth but Selma insisted that it shoulde before it.


    They had picked a dress code of white and purple. The favorite colors of each couple. Trey loved Purple while Selma loved White.


    ¡°Where is it holding?¡±, Roberts asked after he took a peep on her phone.


    ¡°Here in Florida. They areing back home tomorrow¡±, she answered.


    *****


    Another image came in,


    She opened it immediately. Vanessa saw it and then she dropped her phone in shock.


    It was her wedding day too. Roberts and Trey had it all nned. They were getting married on the same day. Also, the same set of colors and venue.


    Vanessa couldn¡¯t believe it. She hugged Roberts and gave him what he could have called the best kiss of his life.


    *****


    ¡°There is something you need to know¡±, Vanessa said to Roberts.


    ¡°Oh really, go on¡±, he answered.


    ¡°Danica is actually someone I know¡±, she said.


    ¡°Wait, what?!, how?¡±, he asked.


    ¡°We were course mates in college but we never talked to each other¡±, she said.


    ¡°Oh , that is what you wanted to say¡±, Roberts answered with a sigh of relief.


    ¡°I-, I was the reason she ended her rtionship with her boyfriend before you¡±, she said.


    ¡°How? and Why did you?¡±, he asked.


    ¡°She, she was -¡°, Vanessa was talking when she screamed in pain.


    *****


    ¡°How is she doing?¡±, Roberts asked the doctor.


    They had been in the hospital for the past two hours and twenty seven minutes. Vanessa fainted at the house.


    ¡°She is doing fine now¡±, the doctor answered.


    ¡°She really just need rest, eat well and regr check up. The child is doing well also¡±, the doctor confirmed.


    Selma was also in the hospital at Canada, but for a different reason. She went to pick up the bag she left behind two days ago when she came for the antenatal checkup.


    She was given an appointment the following week toe check the result of the pregnancy scan to know the gender of the child she was carrying.


    *****


    ¡°We never really spoke about your family¡±, Trey said to Selma.


    ¡°You did not tell me about your family¡±, Vanessa said to Roberts.


    It would have been a moment of long discussion for each couple, but it just ended with,


    ¡°I have got none¡±, Selma answered.


    ¡°I have got none¡±, Roberts answered.


    ¡°You have me as your family now¡±, Trey said to Selma as he stood up to give her a hug.


    ¡°I miss my mom¡±, Roberts and Vanessa said simultaneously.


    *****


    Selma was on the verge of giving birth. They have moved back to Canada two weeks and one day ago. Vanessa was still only twenty seven weeks and four days pregnant.


    Trey was scared and nervous. His breathing was faster and his heart was pumping blood really fast also. The nurses kept assuring that the delivery process would be sessful and both the child and mother would be fine.


    *****


    Few weeks earlier,


    They had their wedding alongside Trey¡¯s elder sister. The wedding took ce at the beach side in town. Selma had all the bills and cost cleared by her. It was a ceremony flooded with friends and almost no family from each couple. Roberts¡¯ aunt was present. There was also a surprise guest, Danica.


    Surprisingly, she gave the new family her blessings and gave them gifts. Although, she left the party with tears she was not alone. She just met a new guy Simeon, but she was not as connected as she was with Roberts.


    She was not done even after leaving the party, she texted Vanessa.


    ¡°I wish I had you killed since we met in college. Lost two rtionships because of you. Trust me you will not win on this¡±,


    Danica.

    Danica had Roberts kidnapped. There was no calls or texts towards his release. Until this very day. A call came in.


    ¡°Hey¡±, Danica said to Vanessa. She just called her on phone.


    ¡°Hi. Is Roberts with you? He promised not to leave me¡±, Vanessa asked crying.

    ¡°Floral Park. Time is half past nine by evening. Come alone, else you and your man die¡±, she added.


    Vanessa got up immediately and headed for the bank. The baby troubled her, but she managed to get into the car and drive down to the bank.


    ¡°How is she?¡±


    ¡°How is her child?¡±, the woman asked.


    Vanessa got safely to the bank but as soon as she entered, she fell and lost conciousness.


    She was rushed down to the hospital. Danica already got this information.


    ¡°Your princess is at the hospital¡±, Danica said to Robertsughing.


    She tied him to a chair. He was scared after she said that. He needed his Vanessa to be fine especially after he promised he would protect her.

    ¡°It is really fine. It was not your fault you got nabbed by her¡±, Vanessa said to him.


    Vivian did not open up to her yet. She was still very scared of how Vanessa might respond and react.
