Allison got to the hospital with renewed vigour. She deposited the payment and asked the doctors to commence treatment. For once, she is going to sleep well at night. She was still scared but she was hopeful.
Allison entered Kylie's ward without the usual moodiness on her face. She even seemed brighter.
"Hey Kylie. I finally got the money for your treatment. I told you I would" She smiled a little.
"Just be strong for me okay and wake up soon" Allison sat down and she finally felt all her exhaustion telling on her. In a few minutes, she drifted to sleep.Allison woke up in her bedroom the next morning, got ready and decided to meet with her friend. She had sent Delia a text the previous night that they should meet up.
Delia has been her friend since high school, they went to the same college and went through a lot together. She and Delia tell each other everything but she don't know how to tell her about this because Delia has always been protective of her.Inside a small restaurant, Allison is seen with a sophisticated looking girl dressed in a black jean and a leather jacket with her hair packed in a ponytail with deep blue irises peering intently at her.
"what... what did you just say? Calvin? U mean the CEO of Bruce enterprise?" Delia asked with an exaggerated excitement.
"Keep it down will you"
"How do you expect me to be calm about this? No way! How did you do it? I always knew that you were too beautiful for your own good. Do you know how handsome and super rich he is? So you are telling me that Calvin Bruce asked you to be his girlfriend? Somebody pinch me" Allison could only roll her eyes at her annoying friend, Delia has always been so dramatic
"Yes" She knew she lied about being his girlfriend but she couldn't bring herself to tell her that she is going to be his so called 'possession'.
Delia would have been jumping if it wasn't for the people around them and for the fact Allison is looking at her with warning eyes."whoa... And he paid for Kylie's bills?"
Allison only nodded"I'm so happy for you Ally, I was so scared and I know you were scared too. I wish Kylie will just get up from there, she doesn't deserve this you know. she's too good for this world" She said with a sad voice.Allison chuckled"What's so funny?"
"You are really a drama queen you know. Just a few moments ago, u were practically screaming and now you are sad. Your ability to switch between moods in seconds still baffles me"
"Whatever" She rolled her eyes and picked up glass of wine to drink
"Uhm... Calvin wants me to live with him" Allison said timidly
"What..." She almost choked on her drinking spilling it out and coughing.
"Isn't it too soon? Have he taken you on any date? Live with him? No way! That's not happening, at least not yet. I haven't even met him. I need to tell him not to mess with you first. Don't tell me you agreed to this" She was getting annoyed"Delia calm down. He helped me with Kylie you know. I don't know how I would have gotten the money if it wasn't for him" Her voice came out a bit sullen
"I'm sorry Ally. But if he does anything You don't like, just let me know" Allison chuckled, she knows that Delia can't do anything to Calvin.
"Yes mum" She said sarcastically"So when are you moving?"
"Tomorrow"
"Tomorrow? Allison!" She said a little too loud
"Delia, you are embarrassing me, can you please bring your voice down?" She said in a low voice. "I'm moving in with Calvin tomorrow, don't make a huge deal out of it"
"Whatever Ally. I guess I still have to support you on this one. Now that you have a super rich boyfriend and Kylie's medical bills has been paid, I guess I will just to keep the money I saved up for myself" She said excitedly
"You saved up?"
"Yes. Kylie needed it"
"You are the best friend a girl could have Didi"
"I know, I know" they burst out laughing
"Have you told Kenny about it?""I have. He made a huge fuss out of it" She sighed "Are you still dating...uhm... I don't even know his name. whatever! Are you still dating him?" She asked trying to change the topic
"Forget about him, he's a douchebag. I even have my eyes set on someone else"
"You always do"
"Well, a girl needs to have fun"
Allison could only face palm. Delia's unserious relationships is nothing new to her. she would always change her boyfriends once she gets bored. She never dates with her heart"You will need to open up your heart someday Didi. I know that you decided not to open your heart again after Mason but you really need to let go."
Delia felt her heart ache at the mention of Mason. Mason is her ex boyfriend whom she fell hopelessly in love with. They dated for two years and broke up when he told her that he was betrothed to someone else and that they cannot get married. She had begged him on different occasions to take her back stripping herself of her pride, yet he paid a deaf ear to her. 'You know we can never work out, my parents will never accept you. You have nothing a offer and Kate is an heiress'.Mason is from a very wealthy family and he is obliged to marry Kate who is an heiress to the Wayne's family's asset.
Delia hasn't been able to let Mason go. She still loves him. So she tried dating different guys to help her forget him but now at the mention of his name, her heart still aches badly
"I can't Ally. I just can't" She hate herself for loving someone like that. He has moved on and she's still here wishing he will come for her
"I won't open my heart again Ally. I can't bear another heartbreak"
Allison's heart sank at her friend's words, she stood up and gave her a hug
"You are going to find the right one someday Delia. I know it"
Allison has been standing in front of Calvin's mansion since the last ten minutes hesitating to ring the doorbell. She doesn't know what to expect. She thought she had gathered enough courage but it seems it's going to be harder than she thinks. She had managed to get through the gate with the help of the securities there. They let her in because they were expecting her.After a few more minutes, she managed to muster a little courage and rang the bell. 'Here goes nothing' she said in her head.The door was opened almost immediately by a woman who looked like she was in her mid forties."You must be miss Allison Brown, I'm Ellie, the boss asked me to attend to you. It's a pleasure meeting you". She said with a smile."It's a pleasure meeting you too Ellie.""Come in." The woman gestured to her to enter inside with her hand.Allison tried to carry her bags with her but was stopped."ow! you don't have to do that, the maids will do it for you"."O.. okay" She awkwardly dropped the bag
Allison stood unmoving. Her legs felt heavy all of a sudden, the way he was looking at her sent shivers running down her spine. Was she scared? She thinks so. "Allison". She heard him call again. "I said come here." he called firmly and in a threatening tone. She managed to move her feet forward reluctantly. She stopped a few centimeters from his bed."Move closer Allison." He commanded and she took a step forward."Closer". She took another stepCalvin reluctantly got from his bed and walked to stand right before her."You are testing my patience Allison." The look on his face made her think that he wasn't in a good mood. Well it shouldn't be surprising. He is a devil after all.He walked towards her and yanked her arm violently. She flinched from the pain of the tight grip but he didn't loosen his hold."Why are you daring me?" he asked menacingly. "Or do you want to get me angry?"So he wasn't angry.Allison remained quiet."Don't keep me quiet Allison."She looked up at him. What
Allison sat on her bed deeply lost in thought. She thought of the world and how to was so cruel. If only she wasn't poor, if only Kylie didn't have leukemia at all, she wouldn't be here. She wouldn't be reduced to this level.His words kept echoing in her head. 'I own you.' Fuck! Who the hell does he think he is? Does he actually enjoy seeing people in pain? He didn't sleep with her like she had expected, but he humiliated her. Allison has always had high self esteem, she respect herself thereby earning respect from others. She has always worked her to fend for herself and her sister without depending on any man. She even graduated college without financial assistance from anybody. She even had money saved up for Kylie to go to college. This is the first time she had someone assist her financially and she had to pay with her dignity. It hurts her so much but she she didn't have much choice. It will all be worth it when she sees Kylie standing on her feet and laughing again. She rea
Calvin had returned early from work that day. It was one of the rare days he didn't have a lot of work to do so he finished on time and was already home at five o'clock. Ellie had informed him that Allison left the house in the morning to visit her sister and her bar. He had told her to inform him when she gets back. A short while later, he heard a knock on his door."Come in"Ellie entered the room"She is back sir"."Call her in"."She said she wants to bath and eat first". She informed him panicking a little. She had earlier told Allison to answer him first but she refused."Oh really! Let her take her time. Call her in when she's done. You may leave". Ellie nodded and left the room.Calvin sat there for almost one hour before he heard a knock on his door. He wondered what took her so long."Come in".Allison entered and walked closer. She stood right before his bed. It's like she became a little less fearful. Allis
It has been three days and Allison hasn't heard anything from Calvin. He would go to work very early in the morning and come back very late, he even came back past midnight the previous night and she was already asleep.Is he avoiding her? Is he finally taking pity on her after seeing her cry? No! the last thing she needed is to be pitied by that man. Or maybe he isn't showing any pity, he just has a lot to do at work. CEOs can be really busy at times. Maybe something is going on in his company that needed him to be there. Anyway she didn't care, She was trying her best to make use of the golden opportunity while hoping that anything taking his time never ceases. Who knows, the dragon lord could get bored and come at her again.She has been going out since the past three days. She would visit her sister in the morning, giving her flowers and encouraging her to wake up soon then she will spend the rest of the day at the bar with Kenny. It was as if her days had gone back to normal. It
Calvin was inside his car just outside of his mansion gate when he saw two people emerging from a car. He had asked his driver to turn off the car light so his car won't be noticed. He watched as Allison and a man alighted from the vehicle in front of him. He was telling her something and she was laughing heartily. He has never seen her laugh like that before. Who was that man? They would have noticed when he arrived there if there weren't too engrossed in whatever they are discussing. Was she seeing another man? Did he just hug her? Why isn't she protesting? He felt rage brew inside of him. He felt like breaking the mans hands which were around her. He waited patiently and watched him leave. She had to wait for him to leave too and she was even waving at him. Damn it! He watched as the car disappeared out of sight and he saw Allison's little figure entering his compound. She seemed genuinely happy with that man. Why was he so angry? he couldn't tell. Allison had eaten and had alr
It was a Sunday afternoon, Calvin sat on a couch in his living room on the third floor, there was nothing for him to do and he felt bored. He would have called Allison but didn't want to hear her plead for that man. He had been so angry the previous night that he didn't sleep well. Why does she care about him so much? and why is he so angry about it? he just told himself that it would be disrespect if she goes out with another man while she is with him.Since he didn't have anything to do, he decided to do something that he rarely does; watch TV.Calvin was still sitting there like a log looking at the TV, when the least person he expected to see emerged through the door without knocking surprising him."What the fuck are you doing here Leo?" Calvin asked obviously pissed."I'm good, thanks for asking." Leo answered sarcastically."Get the fuck out of here Leo.""Chill. You are scaring me"Leo went on and sat on the couch beside him. He enjoys getting the grumpy guy annoyed."Do you h
Allison thought her ears malfunctioned."What?""You heard me.""Now you are trying to control my emotions too?" she asked with wide eyes and mouth agape."I can control everything about you Allison. You are mine." He leaned closer to her moved his lips closer to her ear, he bit her earlobe lightly and gently nibbled on it. He snaked his hand around her and move it to her butt. He gave her a gentle squeeze. "Undress me Allison." he ordered speaking into her ear."What the fuck!" The mortified Allison responded "I can't do that." She said shyly."Yes you can and you will." he said, his lips not leaving her ear. "Remember what will happen to you if you disobey."Allison eyed him for a moment then stilled her will. Ever so slowly, she moved her hands to undo the buttons of his shirt. Her hands trembled a little but she didn't stop. She was still on it when she felt something moving on her chest area. She looked and saw Calvin's fingers moving around her breasts. Although his fingers wa
