Maria J POV My mind could not stop wandering as I thought of the words they had said to me. They were the ones who told the old man about me and also gave out my identity. I knew there was no way they could have known, not when I was always in disguise. I knew they hated me, but was it enough for them to sell me out like that? I'll never do that to them. I thought we were partners. How could they do something so horrible?Crying right there wasn't because I was hurt by them, although they had thrown me to the ground when they caught me, I wasn't so hurt to have shed tears. I cried because I never expected that people I worked with would go to that extent to hurt me. They were monsters, wicked beasts! They sent the old man at me. I was so lost in thought, that I didn't know that I had gotten home. My fingers were clenched on my thighs, my eyes looking ahead of me when I heard him say, “See why you need to stop going there? It's not safe. You need to quit working there” Slowly, my
Morning came faster than every other day, the frown on my face clearly made everyone stay away from me including Aunty and the nuisance she calls children. I had slept for only three hours and that wasn't enough for me at all. It was true that I had come home late from the club but if I had slept at exactly 1 am when I had stepped into the house, it wouldn't have been a problem. The problem was that the bastard had sent that text message that made me lose my sleep. My eyes refused to catch any sleep, I stayed awake thinking of him till 4 am! It was enough for me to be pissed. And I had to leave early today because I had gone late to work the previous day which angered my boss so much. I didn't want to take that risk today. Anna was still sleeping when I left the house. When I got out of the house, the frown on my face only deepened. There was a car in front of my house. No wonder Aunty and her children looked at me with keen eyes when I was leaving just now. I had totally forgott
My mouth always puts me in trouble and today wasn't an exception. I watched James walk into the dressing room with a smirk as he clapped both hands together.“Gossiping during work hours. That's something the boss would love to hear” “Hey, can't you knock? What if we were naked?” Sofia spat in anger as she glared at the boy who casually walked closer like he didn't hear what Sofia had said.“What haven't I seen before?” James asked back, making me raise my brows. Was he serious? Why do I smell trouble from this boy?Seeing him just reminded me of the anger I had felt before I left home, bringing the anger back in. “I'll report you to Boss. You don't know privacy. I'll make sure you get fired for this!” I hissed and James chuckled. “Really? Report me? Go ahead, baby girl. And I'll gladly tell the boss what you three were discussing before I stepped in. Not only were you gossiping during work hours, but you were also speaking about Boss’s beloved wife. You all know how much the Boss
I came out of the restaurant angrier than I had left the house this morning. I do not understand why girls allow themselves to be seen as weak. James gave out one stupid weak threat and the best they could do was succumb.Not me, definitely not me. A loud honk pulled me out of my thoughts, I turned to the car to see Mr Lance standing outside the car. He had a stick of cigarettes in his hand, his eyes were fixed on me. What does he want this time?“J,” he called and I glared at him,“What are you doing here again?” “Came to pick you up, of course,” he replied with a look of amusement in his eyes. I didn't know what to say to this man. I always knew what to say but the minute I stand here in front of him, I'm speechless. I can't remember the words I had rehearsed to say to him.“You need to stop doing this,” I sighed and was about to tell him to leave me alone when I saw James walking towards me. “I'll accept your request to drop me home today and that's it. '' I said to him before h
“The man always comes to save me, it's the reason I am always with that man. Do not blame me, I am not even safe in my own family's house” “I told you, Daddy, I told you that she is now with that man. He comes to drop her home and also pick her up at work,” Melissa said and Melinda smirked,“Who knows if she is not sleeping with him to get a free ride and free food,” “That's not a question. We all know that she is her mother's daughter,” Aunty Claire said glaring at me. I only chuckled at her words before saying,“Ah, now I can see where Melinda got her special abilities from,” I winked at Melissa. The idiot doesn't know that I know her dirty secret that I wasn't sure her family knew about. “What's that supposed to mean?!?” Both mother and daughter attacked me and I raised my hands slightly, “What can I say? It's only natural to learn new things from our elders. My aunt just told me that it was ‘like mother like daughter’ so I decided to use the phrase. Did I do something wrong?”
The scream only increased after I made my way onto the one large stage. The lights continued to switch from red to blue, green, yellow, and many more. “Red! Red! Red!” The people began to scream. I hadn't started dancing yet, but they were already bathing me with their cash. As I swung my hips left and right, my eyes unconsciously searched for Mr. Lance. I didn't see him anywhere. So he couldn't make it after all. I climbed up a pole and twisted myself in a tricky manner, my upper body went down with my hands against the pole. I moved up and down the pool like I was fucking the pole causing the crowd to scream. “Come and do to me what no man has ever done to me before!” I heard a girl scream from the crowd and that made me jump down from the pole. Gesturing with two of my fingers and with my eyes fixed on the girl, I asked her to come up on stage. She screamed and rushed up, I held her hand and turned her around, her back pressed on my body as my fingers began to trace her skin.
Lance's POVI watched how she hurriedly spoke, trying to protect someone who was already at the point of death. How dare he touch what belongs to Alpha Lance?!?The motherfucker allowed her to touch him, he dared touch my mate. This was clear death, he wouldn't touch what belonged to someone else in his next life. She didn't notice that she had even called me by my name without the title. It was lovely from her lips. Lance…“Please…” her eyes stared squarely at him. “Forget it,” I said before stretching my hand to the side and some bundles of cash were dropped in my palm. I dropped the cash on her thighs before saying, “I'll wait for you at the back,” “Mr. Lance, do not kill the boy. He didn't do anything wrong, I was the one who came to him,” she pleaded even with her eyes. “You should have known better than to come to him, darling. Now you'll cause the death of someone so young and innocent,” I replied. “Mr. Lance, please. I didn't mean to,” she pressed. I continued to stare a
Maria J’s POVI was still trembling all over my body even after dancing for more than an hour for the rest of the customers after Mr. Lance left. I fear that he would hurt the poor boy who didn't even do anything wrong. He was on his own when I had chosen him but I didn't mean it. I only wanted to make the bastard see that I wasn't his personal stripper. Moving back to the dressing room after the club had finally closed for the night, I began to peel the customs off my body. I was sweaty and down there, wet. So much for trying to make him jealous. He didn't sit and watch in anger like I thought, he had practically gone to push the boy away, taking his place. Under my tummy twisted in arousal when I felt my naked ass pressed on his thighs. Knowing it was Mr. Lance I was sitting on alone, made me almost cum. His fragrance attacked my nose so suddenly, I whimpered. What kind of cologne was that? After taking off all the pieces of my attire, I made my way to the shower and freshened u
