Anamika was scared for him. At this rate, he might die. While she was carried away by his weird pattern of breathing, she didn't know when her hand had gotten to a point of no return.
She immediately withdrew her hand like she got electrocuted when her fingers touched his rod. Anamika could swear that the length had stretched to its maximum size.That was the straw that broke the camel's back. The man turned and slammed her to the bed before pouncing on her.He was suffering and had tried everything in him to hold back. He had soaked himself in a bathtub for more than 30 minutes still, he couldn't stop it.He was intending to suffer through the agonizing pain throughout the night but the incessant ringing of the doorbell wasn't helping matters. Thinking it might be one of his people, he went to open the door and asked for the medicine."I'm sorry for this, but I can't help it." His husky voice sounded close to her ear before his lips touched her neck one more time.Anamika shivered. Slowly, her body started reacting to his touch. However, when she thought he would do more to lubricate her opening, he attempted to plunge himself into her.Feeling the pain that came with his action, a painful scream tore through Anamika's throat and her toes curled. Her body felt like it was being torn apart. She didn't want that pain. It was too excruciating! Amelia didn't tell her it would be this painful."Pl– please, please stop!"However, he was too deep in his world that he wouldn't listen to her pleas.It was bitter at first but soon turned bearable after a while. Throughout the ordeal, she couldn't find the sweetness Amelia told her there was.The memory of tonight is something Anamika will forever live to remember.Meanwhile, outside the room, two workers were taking down the door numbers."That fool couldn't do a proper job. What's so difficult about putting the right numbers on the right doors?""That's enough nagging. Put the right one up quick before we get into trouble.""Why should we be the ones to get into trouble? If anyone should be punished, it should be the person occupying this room. Why would he bring a fight to the hotel? Not just that, they destroyed the room numbers, causing that fool to put the wrong number on the door.""That's enough. The guy just started working with us today and you made him change room numbers. You should be ashamed for trying to bully a newbie. Hmph!" That one left in a fit of rage…At dawn…Anamika had no interest in waking up, her body was sore and weak. However, remembering what she must do before Amelia's fiance woke up, she slowly opened her drowsy eyes.The room wasn't as dark as last night but her partner's face was still buried in darkness.Amelia's fiance, Cullen, hails from the Walkers family, one of the most powerful, richest, and most strict but chaotic families in Nairaland; a Country filled with wealth and prosperity.It was said that the Walkers family has a rule where they only marry virgins and if peradventure one deflowers a lady for whatever reason, the lady must be married by the perpetrator of the 'crime.' Same goes for the females too.The A–list celebrity of Rose City, Amelia, and Cullen fell in love and got engaged but for some reason, Cullen was doubtful of Amelia's virginity.Amelia's mother being the scheming businesswoman she was, took advantage of their masseuse's situation and came up with the idea of having Anamika take Amelia's place while disguised with thick make-up to look like Amelia.…Presently, Anamika turned on the bedside lamp and was shocked out of her senses to see the handsome and relaxed face of the man she slept with.He wasn't Cullen Walkers, he was a stranger!!Anamika gasped in disbelief.'Th– th– this! Wh– who, who… who did I sleep with?!!'Her hands flew to her mouth and she quickly covered it shut for fear that she might scream.It feels like a dream, no, this must be a dream! How could she… How could she sleep with a stranger?!Anamika racked her brain with weird thoughts. 'Did Amelia set me up?' It wasn't far-fetched because Amelia had been teasing her ever since Anamika told her she was keeping her Virginity for her crush.With that thought in mind, Anamika's eyes turned fiery and she immediately forced herself to rush into the bathroom but before then, she chopped the vulnerable side of the man's neck with the side of her hand to force him to sleep a bit longer. It wouldn't look good if he woke up to her in the room.After washing up and putting on her disheveled dress, she walked out of the room without another glance at the stranger. He was sinfully cute but there's more problem at hand than admiring his beauty.As she slammed the door shut, Anamika could feel hatred and anger bubbling inside her. She had no idea who she was angry at. Was it the beast who ravaged her last night, was it Amelia and her mother, or Amelia's fiance who took the wrong room?Anamika blamed everyone but herself because honestly, she couldn't see what she did wrong. The only fault she felt she had was being helpless in life that she had to stoop so low just to save her brother and make ends meet.She threw a glare at the door before turning to leave but instantly froze when her gaze brushed through the room's number.Her head whipped back on its own and her eyes zoomed in on the number. A glaring '107' was staring back at me.Anamika shook her head in denial. This cannot be true. This most definitely can not be true!Remembering where she saw room number '107' last night, she dashed there but the number she found on it was '101.'She stood there speechlessly and dumbfoundedly. After a while, she suddenly burst into a fit of mad laughter as tears slowly slipped down her cheeks.Anamika refused to believe she made a mistake. No! The mistake cannot be hers. She knew what she saw! She wasn't dumb to not know the difference between room 107 and room 101, but why didn't the key work last night?The more she thought about it, the crazier her mind went.Just then, room '101's door was opened and a devastated-looking Amelia with tears in her eyes walked out lifelessly.Anamika stepped forward but those dead eyes staring back at her didn't let her take another step forward. She could only watch as Amelia walked further and further away like a soulless puppet until she entered an elevator door. Confusion laced Anamika's face as she stood there wondering what happened to Amelia. Just then, the door in front of her burst open, revealing a young and handsome man. But he was a tad less handsome than the stranger she slept with. He was Cullen Walkers. "What are you still doing here? I told you I don't ever want to see you anywhere around me!" Anamika jolted. She had admired him to the extent she forgot her place for a moment. His icy tone was a dead giveaway that he was very furious with Amelia. No wonder Amelia was like that. Did he realize that Amelia is not a virgin? But what Anamika didn't understand was, why would Amelia go to see Cullen when she hadn't called her to come over? Also, it was just a few seconds after 6. If the plan had worked,
Mrs. Wales who had a natural haughty look glanced condescendingly at Anamika who was kneeling a few inches away from her and placed down her cup of wine. The woman, wearing an elegant black lace dress that stopped below her knees, walked towards Anamika and sent a resounding slap across her face with her fingers that were filled with large rings. Anamika felt a cut on her lips, and a stinging pain on her cheek, still she didn't dare to look at the woman in the eyes. "You still have the guts to show yourself here after what you did to my daughter? Anamika, I had warned my daughter several times to not count you as a friend but she wouldn't listen. I knew right from when I first saw you that you were a jealous person and would one day cause my daughter harm, but no, Amelia trusted you and wanted you around. Now see, my instinct was right all along!" Anamika didn't utter a single word of defense and stayed silent as the woman continued to spout poisonous words nonstop. Servants
Anamika got to the hospital, looking drained and shattered. She received a call from Nurse Beth to hurry over to the hospital after she was dragged out of the Wales mansion. Although Anamika had no idea why the nurse needed her so urgently, her instinct told her it was something she wouldn't be able to stomach. A distance away from her brother's ward, she could hear loud cries and those voices were her mother and sister's. Anamika took to her heels and barged into the ward to meet the cold lifeless body of her little brother. Her legs froze by the door as memories ran through her mind. In the family of four, only Martin treated her like a family would. Even though he was just 13, he was able to get their mother and sister to stop bullying Anamika whenever he saw them getting on her nerves. Martin promised her he would survive this... He told her that no matter what happened, he won't die because there won't be anyone else to protect her, but why… Why did he have to leave? Why
After she left the hospital, Anamika didn't go home, instead, she roamed the street aimlessly and spiritlessly until night came.The sky seemed to be upset as it poured out rain like it wanted to sink the earth.Under the rain, accompanied by the claps of thunder and fierce wind, Anamika could be seen at the community playground, standing by a swing.Years ago, her brother used to love this particular swing and even marked it. Even when his sickness was starting to reveal itself, her brother didn't stop coming here, until he could no longer leave his bed.When he was sick, the little boy made Anamika promise to get him a swing as a gift if he successfully have his tumor taken out... But now, he's no more!Under the canopy of darkness and the roaring of the sky, a lone soul cried until she couldn't breathe anymore.Throughout that night, Anamika didn't return home. However, when she got home the next morning, she met her luggage outside their apartment, drenched in rain.The door and W
"I can see you're insane. It hasn't occurred to you after two weeks that Amelia's mother might have been searching everywhere for you. So you want to present yourself to Amelia and her mother on a platter of gold, is that it? has your situation made you stupid?!"Anamika wasn't listening, she was furious. She had the urge to tear Amelia apart. She believed that, if not for them, her brother wouldn't have died. If not for them, she wouldn't have had to give her virginity to her brother's murderer. If not for them, her beautiful fingers wouldn't have been burnt so badly.Anamika gritted her teeth with unrestrained fury. The hostility that was oozing out of her surprised Emma to the extent she froze for a while.When her mind snapped, she pulled Anamika and forced her to turn her back to Amelia, just in time before Amelia looked their way.Amelia narrowed her eyes at the two backs she was seeing. One of them looked like Anamika but she shook her head. The people her mother sent out to l
Boss and his brother, Cullen had been at each other's throats for the longest of time and now, Boss accidentally deflowered Cullen's fiance. What war is greater than this? The man picked up a tumbler of drink on the table and the corner of his lips curled up slightly. "Was she?" He asked. Roy looked at his master. From how relaxed his attitude is, he knew his Boss was up to no good. "Boss, you already had things planned out, blatantly provoking Cullen by stealing his woman will disrupt your plans," Roy warned before lowering his head again. "Who says?" The Man asked before downing his glass of drink and standing up. "The bee has been buzzing around me for a long time... It's time to pluck a feather from it." He said before walking out. Roy sighed and shook his head. He couldn't blame Master Asher for waking up from his slumber. Asher only came back to Nairaland because of his father, but instead of quietly letting Asher deal with the man and leave, Cullen got in the way and starte
A knock sounded before the door was pushed open and then a young lady in a black skirt, wearing a nude shirt and black heels walked in, carrying a notepad and folder. "Ma'am, here is the list sent to us from Nairaland, of candidates who are vying to be the face of our beauty product in Nairaland.""Have you filtered through the candidates?" "Yes, they are majorly A–listers, but with two C–listers this time."Ms. Mika raised a brow, "C–listers?" "Yes, ma'am. Although we've always used A–list Celebrities for our products, the C– listers that were selected this time are extremely pretty. They have the perfect skin for our product, the type you've been looking for." The Assistant smiled."Oh, then I'd like to take a look." Ms. Mika took the folder from her Assistant and skimmed through them. The C–list Artists were indeed pretty, but there's more to being the ambassador of her company than just being pretty. Mika put aside the prettiest among the two and continued flipping through the
"M–" "Let me speak!" Mika thundered. " As my personal Assistant for two years, you should have known better. I'm stripping you of your position. Choose between being an observant and dropping your resignation letter." Mika went back to what she was doing. Mika didn't want to directly fire her for a reason. Even though this Assistant had long been on her blacklist, she restrained herself from biting the finger that fed her. But not anymore, Ivy has no redeeming qualities.Ivy stood there in utter shock. Being an observant is almost the same as being an Intern, but an Intern is better because they are allowed to work. But observants can't do anything but just watch others work. Does that not mean that her boss wants to get rid of her? Or wants her to start afresh? What greater insult is there other than this? How can a PA to the CEO become an observant?! Not considering the salary reduction, her status, and respect would be thrown to the dogs. "This is not fair, Mika! I've–""I gave
