Krystie hurriedly walked to the stairs, she was feeling so stupid for everything that had happened, she didn't want to think of what had happened, of course, she could vividly remember everything that had happened last night.
Krystie could clearly remember how she had ended up on a stranger's bed, it was only because of her stupidity, which had resulted in her losing her one most precious thing and dignity, but good thing she didn't regret, at least she had given her first night to a stranger than that jerk who had betrayed her, and as if to worsen the situation he had played her with her friend, best friend, Cassandra![Flashback]Krystie was feeling super excited to go and see her fiancee, it had been a long time since she had seen him. She had always been so busy with several shifts at work that she had not gotten any time to go and hang out with him, and since she was already done with all the shifts after she had overworked herself and pilled several shifts to get time to hang out with him.A full week! That was so much for her!She had intentionally not informed him that she would be going over to see him, she wanted to surprise him but who knew that she would be the one to be surprised instead?Alex had given Krystie the spare key to his house so obviously she had permission to go in and out of his premises as she wished, but it came as a shock to her when she found the door open, that had never happened before, but she didn't overthink it.She had pushed the door open, but there was one thing strange that caught her attention, there was an unfamiliar scent in the room, one that she was not used to in his house, but she thought it was quite familiar to her.Krystie walked into the house, excitement was evident in her eyes, but there was no one in the living room so she thought that probably he was upstairs, so silently made sure she didn't make any sound as she took the steps, she was eager to see his reaction.Proceeding on without thinking twice Krystie had opened the door gently making sure she was gentle enough not to be heard."Surprise!"Krystie had spoken as she walked into the room but the sight before her was more surprise to her than how she had planned hers.On the bed there were two figures, completely naked, with her best friend, Cassandra on top of Alex, riding him!It was only after Krystie had spoken did the two people immediately stopped in action and stared at her with shocked faces, obviously they had not expected to see her here, not at such a time because normally she would always be doing several rounds around the wards to make sure her patient are okay."Krystie, what are you doing, aren't you supposed to be at work, didn't you say that you were held up for the day and that you won't be home until late at night!" Cassandra spoke as sweat trickled down her face, she was sweating, obviously embarrassed to have been found out.It then occurred to Krystie that of late Cassandra had been asking about her whereabouts daily, but not once did it occur to Krystie of her intentions, she had just thought that maybe she was worried about her.Initially, Krystie had not given much thought but thinking about it at the moment, everything made sense to her, she just wanted to check on her whereabouts so that she could have her plans done. Plans with her fiancee.Krystie was not sure whether she was supposed to laugh or cry hearing her best friend ask her such a stupid question, wasn't she the one who was supposed to ask her what she was doing in her fiancee's house? Worst of all why she was naked and having sex with him when she knew very well that they were already engaged, and even their wedding had already been announced? In two months!"Baby, please listen to me, it's not what you think it is, please let me explain!" Alex had spoken up after pushing Cassandra aside and jumped completely naked as he was to where Krystie was.Krystie had felt so disgusted with him, and more so when Alex had gone ahead and hugged her forcefully, the sex smell filled the air making her much more disgusted with him. Krystie felt that Alex was such a fool thinking that even after what she had witnessed she was still going to listen to him.Krystie had immediately pushed Alex away, she was feeling hurt, not sure whether she should cry or not at such a moment, she had loved him more than any other person, and even though her twin sister had warned her about Alex, Krystie hadn't heeded to her at all but had gone ahead blindly and got engaged with him, yet here she was, not sure of what she was supposed to feel.Alex had not given up on Krystie yet, and just as Krystie turned around to leave the room Alex grabbed her hand holding her back. In a spur of a moment Krystie had turned around, not even an emotion on her face, she had maintained a straight face as she lifted her palm and slapped Alex across the face, and just like that she left running down the stairs.Alex was left behind standing watching her disappearing silhouette, he too was not sure what he was supposed to feel after he had been found out, he had mixed emotions on whether to follow her or not."Krystie, I..."Alex had half yelled as he tried to follow Krystie but Cassandra was fast enough to hold him back."Let her be, she would calm down. "Krystie had run down the stairs, initially had put a strong face before Alex not wanting to show him how hurt she was when she had faced his betrayal, but as she had exited his door tears started streaming down her cheeks, and she had run to her parked car, ignited the engine and sped off home, she was not sure how she reached her house at all because she was crying all the while as she was driving.Krystie was lucky to have found her twin sister Chloe at home, seems she had not gone to work for the day, and the only thing that Krystie could do was hug her sister as she cried, and Chloe kept on consoling her, caressing her back as she too cried with her until they both had fallen asleep next to each other, both with tear-stained faces.The girls are normally each other's pillars in times of distress, and normally it is always Krystie who is always consoling her sister because of the two of them it is always Krystie who is the eldest and strongest, but seeing her crying for the man broke Chloe's heart.'Maybe I should teach that douchebag a lesson for you, Chloe thought with a bitter smile.Later in the evening, Chloe had suggested to Krystie that maybe they should go out and enjoy the night out, and of course, Krystie was not a fool to not have realized that she was doing all this just for her, she wanted her to feel better from the betrayal and she appreciated it in her mind because she needed it. Krystie and Chloe had gone to the hotel but their major interest was in the bar region, and that's exactly where they had headed, Krystie wanted to drown all that she was feeling inside, all her pains and sorrows all which had resulted from the two people she used to trust. Chloe, Krystie's twin was all along beside her, and it was such a surprising thing that today she was the one who had asked Krystie to go out, because normally it is always Krystie who convinces her to go out at times whenever she feels like she needs it, and most always than never Chloe would always reject her because of the two she is the workaholic that would at times carry some of her works home to d
"Hey, please help me, I beg you, just play along and I will pay you, I promise, with anything that you would want from me! "Krystie had approached the man, but she had made sure she was low enough to speak so that no one heard what she had spoken to him, she wanted to hurt Alex too, not because she wanted to get him back but because she wanted him to see that she was no longer the naive innocent sweet girl that he was used, she wanted him to have a taste of his own medicine. The young man had initially looked at Krystie not quite comprehending what she was up to or what exactly she wanted from him, all his life Lucian had always felt disgusted with the ladies who were always making a move on him because he knew none of them liked him but they were just interested in his identity and wealth.Initially, Lucian would have pushed the lady away but when he saw three pairs of eyes staring at him from behind her, two with shock while one with quite an unfathomable expression, it dawned on
"Krystie, I think you should slow down already, you have already taken a whole bottle and you're already tipsy. It is not your fault that he cheated on you, it's because he was a fool," Mark reached out to the bottle that she was drowning. Krystie had been crying, lamenting how she had caused an end to their relationship because she hadn't given her boyfriend any attention as she was always busy with work. She had also claimed that she had already moved on from him, and that she didn't care anymore. Mark and Chloe were not fools to not have realized that no matter how much Krystie acted like she didn't care at all and that she had already moved on from Alex, the truth remained that she was still so much in love with him, and even her act of kissing a stranger was only to provoke Alex, she still cared and that was what hurt her the most.At the moment Krystie was very drunk, and for some unknown reason she was feeling uncomfortably dizzy and nauseous, excusing herself from the table
As Lucian strode down the corridor to his room, his mind wandering far away, he felt he heard some commotions, but minding his own business he was tempted to dismiss the commotion echoing around him and just walk by. Memories of the enigmatic woman's kiss lingered, tugging at his focus. Lucian could clearly recall the softness of her lips, the warmth of her breath, and the subtle taste of her lips. The gentle touch of her hand at the back of his neck, and the electricity that had sparked between them stood out in his memory. Buried deep in his thoughts, Lucian halted, he had heard a familiar voice broke through the chaos, the same voice that had sought his aid at the hotel's entrance, the voice felt like of someone in need, helpless, barely audible. Not very sure whether he was hallucinating or something, Lucian stood in place, he wanted to be sure that it's the same voice, and sure enough he heard it once more."Help me! Somebody help me please!" The faint whisper rang once more in
Krystie stepped out of the hotel, her heart racing from running, and her eyes filled with tears. Her once elegant dress now hung torn and tattered, a reflection of a rough night that she had shared with a stranger. Her mid thighs hurt, and her legs felt jelly, she didn't have any strength but the fear of facing the young guy was more than the pain she was feeling.Memories of betrayal flooded her mind, each step echoing the pain she had in her heart as she ran across to her car. Just as she reached her parked car, a familiar figure emerged from the shadows. It was Alex, her ex-boyfriend, the one who had shattered her heart into a million irreparable pieces. His presence sent a shiver down her spine, from anger, bitterness and disappointment. However, she refused to show any sign of weakness, not before this jerk who had betrayed her love."Krystie," Alex called out, his voice dripping with arrogance closing the difference between them cornering her between the car and him. "I didn't
Cassandra sat on her seat in the dimly lit room fuming with anger, her gaze piercing through the shadows to meet the eyes of five men kneeling before her, each had several injuries on the face and bandages on their arms. The air was thick with tension as they watched her trembling with fear. "You guys are nothing but failures, I should have known earlier before entrusting you with such a task. Was it so hard for you to accomplish such a simple task? Cassandra's tone rang, full of anger for their failure as she stood from her mighty chair and started walking around circling them. "And what happened to you all? Why do you have wounds all over your body? Cassandra asked rolling her devilish hawk's eyes.The group leader volunteered and explained how Krystie was rescued by a certain guy who had inflicted them with all the injuries. After the explanation Cassandra couldn't help but slap them, how weak were they exactly so as beaten by a single guy?There was no room for excuses or toleran
Krystie, immediately she arrived home took notice of two people who were cuddled on the sofa, Chloe sleeping on Mark's lap, while Mark held her protectively, a smile crept at the corners of her lips, and without disturbing them she walked past them so that she could go clean up, she was feeling stuffed, and the Lucian guy cologne still lingered on her body.Once Krystie was done, she came back down only to find them awake. Without a word Krystie too sat opposite them and took her phone and started playing video games, she was so tired that she had asked for a day off from work, which would be so unusual of her. Chloe and Mark sat on the sofa looking at Krystie as if she had grown horns, they appeared exhausted, with dark circles under their eyes, and drooping eyelids a clear indication that they had not slept at all.Krystie completely ignored them and let them stare at her all they wanted, she was not going to answer something that they had not asked her, she let the staring competi
Lucian who stood at the door not very sure whether he was at the right address was stunned when the door was roughly opened, "What else do you want, just do whatever you want, am not interested in you all, you can have each other, that is none of my business!"Not very sure whether the outburst was meant for him or not Lucian once more rang the bell. Irked up, Krystie opened the door, she wanted to give the duo an earful but that's until she saw who stood before her, startled by the unexpected visitor, she cautiously opened the door, her eyes widening in surprise at the sight of Lucian standing there."Lucian, what are you doing here?" Krystie asked, her voice tinged with apprehension, she had known his name when Alex had earlier on called him out. Lucian felt so happy hearing her call him by his name. Without waiting for an invitation, Lucian strode into the apartment, his demeanor brash and self-assured. He ignored Krystie's question and instead welcomed himself into her house and
