'oops! What were you guys about doing?' She roved her eyes.

The duo quickly stepped apart. Shivani couldnt believe herself. Had she planned on kissing Dike?

Dora on her part boiled with rage and anger. She knew it! She knew that she could never have been wrong with this Shivani girl. The instant she stepped into the house as Dike's wife, she knew she was bad news.
She was a hopeless and shameless flirt and she was out to seduce Dike.
She knew her type. She just wanted to be Dike's favourite and then dictate everything that goes on around the house. She had been a fool to even give the girl a benefit of doubt in the first place because she didnt deserve it at all.

She was angry but she didnt show it 'did i interrupt something interesting?' She forced herself into winking at Shivani when all she wanted to do was smack away the innocent and confused look on her face. She hated pretenders and Shivani was obviously one. A good one at that.

'its not...what you think' Shivani stuttered.

'i was just coming to check up on you since you've not come down since Ijeoma left. I wanted to ensure you were alright but its written all over you. I never knew you were up to something more interesting up here'

'Dora, i'm sorry please, i...'

'why are you apologising?' Dora interrupted, a smile still on her lips 'you have every right to do whatever with Dike. He's your husband, right Dike?' She glanced at him.

'excuse me' He left the room without another word.

'wow! Is that Dike being embarrassed? I've never seen him this way before' Dora chuckled.

'its not what you think i swear Dora' The look on Shivani's face was touching but Dora refused to be affected by it this time around.

'i know dear. Hormones were flying. It happens. You're a lady and you have blood running in your veins. You have a need that must be fulfilled once in a while, so i get it'

Shivani flinched 'its not like that Dora!'

'what? Who best to do it with if not your husband? Huh?' Dora smirked.

'Dora!!!'

Dora laughed this time 'dont mind me jhor. Just me being naughty. I'll leave you to yourself for now. I'll be in my room resting incase you need me okay?'

'uhm.....'

But Dora was out of the room already.

The meaning of a name is more important than how beautiful the name sounds or the number of people that accepts the name. Most of us are reflection of our names.
Gabriel is an Hebrew name which means a hero of God, devoted to God or God is my strength.
Churchill is an English name means hill of the church.
Crystal mean a rare beauty, extremely smart
Christian - a follower of Christ
Beverly is a loud girl who is a social butterfly.

I support your husband on Gabriel and Gabrielle. The heroes of God and who God is their strength and backbone.

CHAPTER.
'i do not want another wife father!' Dike barked 'whats all this all about?! Another wife added to the batallion i have at home? Isnt that stupidity?'

Igwe Ikemba cleared his throat for the umpteenth time. He wondered why his son had refused to see reasons with him 'son, thats the tradition. As the crown prince of this community, you would have to do that. You'll be king one day and you'll rule'

'thats where you're greatly mistaken father. Because i will never be king. I will never rule. I've told you several times and i'm still telling you that i'm not interested in this throne, i'm fuckingly not interested! How many times will i tell you that?' Dike spoke angrily.

'be quiet son!' his mother, Lolo said in a fierce whisper 'you dont speak to your father that way'

'how else am i supposed to speak to him mother? For how long will i let this man here control my life? For goodness sakes, i am sick and tired of marrying women i do not love, women i do not understand nor know from anywhere!'

'son, its the tradition. Its tradition that you marry up to seven wives before you assume the throne of your father, the Igwe. Please try to understand. This is the last wife you'll be marrying i assure you. And we've already made preparations. And i'm sure you're going to like her. She studied abroad just like you. A professional nurse' His mother said.

'if indeed, she's a professional nurse, then why would she want to waste her time marrying someone like me? Doesnt she have anything better to do with her life?' He said looking at his mother.

'Dike!' His mother called.

'Dike' The Igwe said gruffly 'your marriage to this new maiden who just arrived her fatherland after spending so many years abroad is in 7days. And you're to prepare. Do not even think of messing with me son, because you know what i'm capable of'

Dike scoffed 'of course i know what you're capable of. And you equally know what i'm capable of. I also do hope you understand that there's nothing, i mean nothing thats going to make me marry that Godforsaken maiden! I, Dike Onuora Ikemba refuse to get married to her, whoever she is. And be lest assured father, that very soon, i'll get rid of the six demons you planted in my house, very soon' He glanced at his mother one more time, then picked up his car keys and left.

Igwe stared at Lolo 'are you seeing? Are you seeing it? Is this how you raised your son? To be disrespectful to his father?'

Lolo glanced at him 'whats the meaning of that Igwe? We raised him together didnt we?'

'are you talking back at me?'

Lolo stood up from her seat 'i'll be in my chambers now. If you need anything, call your other wives to get it for you' She started walking out of the throneroom.

'Lolo! Lolo! Ngozi! Come back here!' Igwe called but she walked out instead.
