Great, next please❤❤

Sam pov:
Laughter echoes through the room,,
I stood faceless and startled by the demonic
sound ,
Gently I looped my head around.. …
It was a deep dark room..
I blinked and narrow my gaze as a sudden
light pierces the room …
My heart quickened as the silhouette of a man
became visible,
A ruggedly handsome man…whose looks
defines the meaning of charms
….he looks down slowly and up at me.
A low lazy smile eased up the edges of his
mouth ,
Surely, he was the first man my heart beated
for ,
The man I love more than my life…
His tempting smile was like a cool sun on my
face but yet why does it feels so terribly cold …
He was reaching out
and in an instant all went dark..
Steve..
I glanced around in fears..
I try calling out to him but seems my voice only
died down around me.
I quieted my breath ,,
I heard a soft padded steps moves close as it
drifted against the rough floor..
The laughter continues with scrape of metals,
the piercing sound was like a sting against a
rail …
So sharp and horrible
….
I jerked my head around at a sudden sound
The light came back …and there he was,
Wounded with blood drenched cloth..
My gasp became a cry of frustration …
Helplessly I watched his kneels gave out on
him.
My eyes widened in horror
“I’ll always love you Sam”
He whispered
Steveeeeeeeee!!!
I scream out of my sleep in fear , my eyes were
moist and terror shadow when I sat upright..
My heart racing as I glanced sideways
The room was quiet..
I was alone,
Oh noo
I gasped as my heart instantly sank in…..
“Steve !!”
“God Steve, ”
I pull the blanket around me and ran into the
bathroom
“Noooooooo, ” I shake my head in horror from
side to side..
I warned him not to go, no it can’t be
Stunned and dizzy
A sob obstructed my throat still not wanting to
believe he actually left,,
With trembling hands I swallow hard but yet
those strapless tears kept falling
“nooo Steve,” I staggered towards the wall as
primal fear erupted me
the shock on what I saw in the dream was
enough to make my kneels goes out on me ,
I slid to the ground until my buttocks landed on
the hard ties
…oh no Steve ..
My heart ache like fire as it spiral into a tighter
and tighter coil. I squeezed my hands against
it and cry more..
My eyes darted to the wall clock..

charming
. …then towards the stool where he neatly
arranged some fruits juice,
foods and table waters,,
a fugitive glance at the note he placed beside
it confirmed my fear..
I crawled towards it and grabbed it .
A strangled cry escaped my throat as I gazed
at it with blurry visions,
” babe I have to do this, hope you try to
understand reasons
And please I don’t want you to start crying
Am only doing this for you, me and the lives in
danger…
Someone has to stop Erik ..
I can’t just sit back and do nothing..
But I promise I’ll be back immediately I get the
botton to those bombs
.
Don’t do anything foolish, wait for me..
I love you more than my life …
Steve.
I Swallowed hard,
And for a brief moment, time was suspended,
the sound rearing up in me was like a deep
hallow
I stiffened and stood in stunned disbelief,
totally puzzled by fear, totally unsure as to
what next to do.
the acheing feeling slowly returned to my limbs
I stood shakily and wandered into the bath
room, eyes downcast,lost in thought. My fears
seemed unfathomable;
The pains inside of me was devastating. Then
I realise This discomfort was my own,
It was something I have to hold on to,,
something that became dimly impulsive..
Steve meant more than very special to me.
the thought of loosing him didn’t just strike my
heart It blow on me like thunder…
I buried my self into the warm water as i
trembled more..
Panic struck me,, I couldnt do anything but
cry… His marks of love making stay glued to
my body, I close my eyes yet all I could hear
was his soft voice…
“think about now and nothing else.. We love
each other only that matters right,, . Your uncle
doesn’t exist, nothing existed but us Sam.. ”
Steveeeeeeeeee!!
My scream pierces the room as hot tears fall..
My uncle is gonna kill him.. I told him not to go
.
I splashed my hands on the water repeatedly
..the dream was real.. This wasn’t the first
terrible dream I had about him..
How can he just walk right to the devil and told
me not to cry…
How can he just left me like this..
I can’t sit here and do nothing,,
I rushed out of the tub and ran inside,
wiping off my tears..i glanced at my watch its
five past eight…
I grabbed my bag and scattered my cloths
everywhere ..thankful, I brought a leggings
along, as quick as possible I put on my
underwears and jerked in the leggings and
top..
I grabbed the car keys and made my way out..
am coming my love.. If you die, then we die
together
Steve pov:
Fully dressed
I walked out of the bathroom and glanced
sideways … sam peaceful baby face catch my
attention ..
I smile softly as my eyes drank in her beauty
one last time..
Her skin was smooth and soft
she was the most beautiful woman have ever
seen ,,,… so geogeous and perfect…
she was the best thing that has ever happen
to me in years..
I just wish she hadn’t seen that message
Andrew sent
But still I have to get back there tonight
I have to get those botton, probably I might
have the opportunity to save Ann and Caleb
I moved closer to the bed .. Analysing her one
last time ..
I just wish I could kiss her right now,
I wish I could tell her I’ll be back soon ..
But I know all too much she wouldn’t let me go
if I wake her up .
It took all the strength in me not to lean forward
and kiss her..
It’s best I do it this way,
it’s best I leave now .
I placed the paper in my hands on the stool
before turning on my heels …
It wasnt as dark outside..
Yet 7.oclock seems like midnight, the estate
was quiet and frigid… the light coming out from
most buildings gave the night a pleasant view..
I walked down the street and there Andrew car
was at the junction Horning at me …
I sighed and motioned forward ..
but was stopped at a point,
When my phone buzzed out in vibration
,
It was dad,
“hello dad”
“hello son ”
“dad, am sorry I couldn’t make it tonight,
something came up and I had to attend to it ,
but I already called mum to explain things to
her,, she wouldn’t believe until she sees you
dad I bet they are eagerly awaiting your
arrival,, let your fears off and go . Please.. ”
“okay son, emmmm… ” his voice cracked…
“good luck … As soon as am done. , I’ll come
over, promise me you’ll go dad”
“okay son I promise ”
“okay bye”..
I dropped the phone and ran up towards
Andrews car
……..
With deep breath I slid in and glanced Sideway
“sorry for keeping you waiting man , but what’s
wrong… You look awful ”
A sour look twisted on Andrew face
“Its my mum man
she wouldn’t stop crying, am just so upset , I
mean Caleb is the the first son yet he behaves
more like the last, ”
I tapped him on the shoulder while I gave him
words of encouragement…
“since things turns out this way Andrew,, then
we have to work on the next possible solution
And that’s what we are about doing right ”
He nodded
“So let’s go”
He twisted the key on the ignition , tyres
screeches at full length as he drove out
towards the main road
**
The whole drive took exactly twenty minutes
Andrew packed at a corner down the lower
junction of the local street …
I noticed I wasn’t in fear, rather worried about
Sam being at that hotel all alone , I should
have taken her home , but my parents house
was no less safe either..
Hope she’s fine and hid to what I told her in
that letter..
Andrew girly stares followed my every
movement , I pull off my shirt and shove in the
black ones he brought ..
As quickly I poured the chloroform in six
different hankachief, put on a black glove, and
a black hoodie .
I slide in every other necessary stuff into my
front and back pocket , such as
injections,Lighter and a small knife
“Steve, I still think” Andrew said rather
shakily…
“just shut up man,, stay right at this corner and
wait for the three of us “..
I blew out a breath and got down…i glanced
back at him one last time…
“be at alert Andrew ”
He nodded ..
“I will man ”
I examined him and could see his eyes
tearing, his torment. He was actually scared
for me…
I ignored him and shove into the dark night …
The wind slapped it’s howling breeze on my
face, It felt so cold I couldn’t help but rubbed
on it ..
I adjusted my hoodie and ran right towards the
gate, ..
Damn it was locked…
Then suddenly
The gate opened silently as though someone
has opened it, and right there I knew it was
Richy at work..
I smile and spoke to airs..
Thank you Richy…
I glanced left and right when I entered ,
, I immediately felt an odd chill. It was darker ,
cooler, the smell of the
Large tree was heavy in the air, more smelling
like a decaying atmosphere ,
I crept forward, on alert, trying to get a better
look, i weaved at the back of the large tree in
the compound ,
i stopped, stunned, as i caught a glimpse of
two guys coming out of the bungalow ….
Tall, Dark and ugly men..
I turn to the other side
There, standing alone at the threshold , was a
dog .It was no ordinary dog,, it looks more like
a monstrous, Black eye dog… the biggest dog
I’ve ever seen, with long, curled white ears .
Long dripping tongue,, Nearly the size of a
bear, it kept barking…
The stupid thing might have noticed my
presence… As it kept barking at the direction
of the tree..
The guys went towards the deck and in the
next moment, no other but the mysterious
devilish monster came out with an hem in the
mouth… ..
He inhaled the hem repeatedly and puff the
smoke to airs
He patted the barking dog and glanced
around..
He glanced up at the direction the dog was
barking at . I peeped a little and cursed..
My tension grew so thick, I squeezed but still
ruggedly stood there
He was moving closer as he narrow his stares
towards the tree… He kept moving but was
stopped shut when his guys calls out to him..
“boss, ”
He jerked his head sideways and turn right
ahead to the parking deck …
The bastard is going out
What a right timing…
The two guys both moved towards the gate…
Who left and who doesn’t left along with him I
do not care to know ..
I immediately seized the opportunity
.. I crawl into the dark and made my way to the
back yard…
The locked door at the back yard opened once
more …
I thanked Richy silently and made my way in..
The entire house was furnished with a taste
and style one.. The decor was traditional, very
cozy but yet looked so ugly , everywhere
smells of gin and cigarettes
Where is the bastard room and is Caleb and
Ann really here …
I bolted forth and towards a dark corner, I
searched at alert
suddenly at the far end of the corner sounds
echoes,, as quietly I ran further …
I pushed on the door it was locked,
As usual, the door creaked open again …
Wao , thanks richy
I entered,
The room was dark with lamb light placed at
the top corner of the wall.. ..
Ann was fast to recognised me as she widened
her eyes in surprise and fright,
I swallowed ,the state I saw them was an awful
one.. My stomach rumbled at the sight.. The
room smell of nothing but blood and sweat..
The heat inside of it was horrible, just like a
one quarter of hell
How can Erik be so heartless, treating human
being like dogs
I glanced sideways at Caleb.. He was the worst
one, badly wounded with blood all on his head
and cloth,
His face fell, he breathed in and gasped out in
painful moans …
“Steve” Ann cried
“Steve how…. ”
Shhhhh I placed a finger on my lips and hid
behind the door at the sound coming towards
the room.
Whomever it is, fused the key in and opened
the door…
As a trained assassin he noticed my presence
, he rolled like flash and landed a kick on my
head.
Damn
I fell face down as he moved forth to grab me
again, with all the strength in me I quickly pull
out the niddle in my pocket and pinned it right
to his neck…
He groaned and shouted ..
Like a drugged bull, He roared towards the
door and staggered..
Read ” Beyond captivating ” by the same
author ( Op. Amina )
. With in seconds His kneels and hands went
down paralysed..
Damn where the hell did Andrew get these
stuff…
…
I pull away my hood and bounced on him,,
The repeated hard blow I landed all over his
face,, made him cry out loud..
I grabbed his cloth and pull him up.
My face was emotionless while I watch blood
and sweat falls all over him.
I slapped him hard once more
Bomb, those bombs were the hell is the
button..
He laughed and spat out blood..
“i would rather die than tell you fool ”
” speak up you bastard.”.
I spank him another blow..
He laughed once more ,,
It’s useless I hold his head up and banged it
hard on the floor …
I left him wincing in pain..
Quickly I glanced up at Ann and rushed
towards her, I raised my head sideways now
meeting with Caleb swollen eyes,
A frown curled up his face as he recognized
me..
“Steve ” he murmured..
He coughed out blood as I loosened both of
their rope… Caleb fell weakly to the ground
while Ann call repeatedly to him
“Cj please look at me, cj”
They definitely knew each other.. This time
Caleb glanced up at her and smile slowly
…slowly and gradually his visions gave out on
him…
“Celebbbb ” Ann cried…
Hey Ann move aside , I hurriedly picked Caleb
up and supported him to my back..
Come on,, I hold on to Ann’s hand and led
the way out …
Every corner I passed, the door opened all by
itself..
God if not for Richy will I even be able to do
this …
We ran towards the gate as the stupid dog
kept on barking..
Andrew shrill tone cut through the air, as soon
as I get to the corner he parked his car,,
I struggled forwards , he got down quickly and
supported me … We both carried Caleb to the
back seat while Ann trembling form jumped in
beside him..
“cj” she kept calling
I glanced up at Andrew and spoke hurriedly,
take them both to the hospital am going back
in..
“what!!! man ….you can’t ” the fear on his face
says it all
I glanced down the street to realise how trully
dangerous it was this time,,
A car full of three to four thugs pull in front of
the gate .they horn repeatedly..
Without an answer one of them got down and
opened the gate while the driver drove into the
compound restlessly..
I glanced back at Andrew …
“I’m going back in there to get that botton,
okay, now go ”
“man, you can’t ”
My head swung up, sending my gaze
into collision with his, it was so determined and
cold now.
“get the hell out of here Andrew ” .
He ran up once more to stopped me,,
“man I already showned the record to the
police earlier,, I told them to prepare tomorrow
at first ,,but when you went in,,I saw the look of
things , I got so scared, I had to call them, ”
I patted him on the shoulder and nodded..
“now go Andrew ”
Without delaying further, I bounced back to
the dark and into the cold chilly night …
I continued on along with the icy airs,, the
night growing darker, I struggled to follow
back the trail i passed ….
I entered the gate,, and quietly I made my way
back to the tree… I
heard distant laughter. I snapped to attention,
I lingered hideously against the tree keeping a
good distance,
not wanting to be spotted.. I watched from the
shadows
A twig snapped beneath my feet and i ducked,
worried the sound would give me away..i
looked up
A guy came out to recieved his call, he look
ruggedly big, broad shoulder , with a really
unpleasant voice ..
“hello boss, we don reach portharcout sir, but
we never see pasca ”
I forced myself to focus. I breath in and out
and raised my brows in anticipation ,
This is the moment I have to be extremely
careful…
The guy was about going back inside when
Suddenly the gate flung open..
I peep and my knees but crumbled beneath
me..
All my fears surfaced right in my face, my
vision immediately went blurry
I stood , in the silence, my heart pounding, the
tingling in my arms slowly receding,
the energy fading,
I watch her stood there unharmed. …
As innocent as she look.. The banging feeling
in my head slapped me hard..
My whole form trembled ,
Oh God
Roughly and feeling busted I racked my hands
repeatedly in my hairs and cursed more ….
Damn it,
“oh no what have you done sam”
“Enough Erik,, come out of here, you bastard
, where is my Steve,, where the hell did you
put him, come out here, you freaky man” I
heard her scream…
God am finished

Sam pov:
"Enough Erik,, come out you bastard , where
is my Steve, where the hell did you put him,
come out here, you freaky man" I screamed...
I do care what might happen, I know wasn't
thinking right now, but I just wanted to see
Steve,
Dead or alive I want to see him dammit...
Have suffered through the years , have taken
all of the pains Erik caused me for so long,,
but not anymore
. Have had enough..
suddenly a white flash was pointed towards
me.
I stood fearless, determined to end it all.. I just
wanted to see Steve..
"where the hell is Eric, what did he do to Steve
dammit" I screamed once more
I glanced up ahead ...guys were laughing
inside, clearly they were unaware of my
scream
I felt the anger rushing up in me like waves...
Stubbornly I shouted at the tall guy coming
towards me, ... His ugly face ate holes straight
through me.. ...
He was no less like a monster .
I bounced my leg hard to the front, so willing to
fight the bastard with all my strength..
I shuddered at a scary dog that stood like a
giant right at the threshold , it's barking sound
was enough to send sweats brimming off my
face ..i felt my legs trembled at the sight , but I
refuse to accept weakness. ,, am so willing
and ready to end it all..
Am not the weak Samanthan who ates her
wound in private and gets angry at the whole
world cause of a mere threat ... Am not that
Samanthan anymore ...now that I know love.
Now that I met Steve..
..my fears multiplied but I refuse to accept
them ,
I jerked my hands forward and squeezed a
blow..
"answer me you bastard "
I face him all alerted while he moves more
closer with his phone touch,
I felt my palms sweating despite the cold,
despite a gust of wind that blew its torches
sideways. I concentrated ahead with my blow ,
knowing his silence was no ordinary bout.
"where is eric" I scolded him once more
Suddenly I gasped aloud, and scalded, half
blinded and agonised,
I staggered backwards it was like a hot ring,
Rock and hard on my face ...
The bastard spanked me ..i hold on to my face
and staggered towards the gate
"why you dey shout on top jaguar head , you
dey craze,. "
I glared wide eye at his ugly face, my visions
weren't as clear anymore,, I look down trying
to fix my brain at what just happened...it was
like everywhere was spinning.. I squeezed my
eyes shut and open them again, I noticed he
was about to grab me when suddenly a guy in
hoodie strangled him from the back ,
He squeezed his strong grip around his neck
so tight, he started struggling for air ..
With fright I stared at the sight, a thick towel
was again pressed so hard to his nose, he
struggled and struggle hard...
he groaned, fought and kicked at him...
But his hold was intent, hard and aimed..
More like an angry wolf who's so willing to
bring down it's prey...
He jerked him a kick ..
And Squeezed his hand more hard to his nose
until he went down unconscious ..he bent and
quickly struck an injection right into his neck..
He left it hanging and turn..
Slowly it was like my head was winging to
airs ,my heart beating in a slow pulse, I
swallowed at the sudden rise in my veins
standing before me all in black was no other
but Steve, my Steve,
With tears, I fling towards him like a sparrow
winging towards safety in a hurricane ., ..
I glanced ahead once more, the guys were all
Merry inside unaware of what had happened..
The scary dog stood there barking aloud, but I
do not care. ,
My Steve is here all safe and healthy...
He wrapped his hands around me and drew
me closer...
"Sam I warned you not to do anything foolish
imagine this bastard dare lay his hands on
you"
I shook my head in tears
" no no Steve am so glad you are safe "
He released me , and glanced back in alert
.as quickly he drew my hands along with his
and right outside the gate...
"now go back to the hotel Sam, as soon as I
get those bottons, I'll be back , I promise you "
"no Steve" exhusted and frightened I flung
myself around his strong arms again .. ,
"let's go together Steve, please" I cry out into
his chest
He glanced down at me, he was talking
hurriedly, I do not care to listen but keep
staring at him, he was so handsome, I felt my
heart racing.. I moved and shutted whatever
he was saying with my lips,
He hold himself for a second and later sank in,
I sighed and twin my arms around his neck..
He pulled me hard against him and held me
close as if he'd never let me go... As if has no
intentions of sending me away..
"now go sam" he said putting his arms on my
shoulder as he broke the kiss
And at the moment too soon, we saw a car
light flashed towards us..
It blinded both our face as we both raised our
hands to block it..
Steve gasp at the sight..
"now run Sam" he shouted..
But It was too late, the gate suddenly flung
wide open and three strong guys came out
knocking Steve right to the ground..
Horror flashed through my eyes as I staggered
back almost falling,
I swung my hands and slapped a guy who was
trying to grab me
"don't you dare touch me, you irritating son of
a b-tch"
The guy winced and grabbed me in the neck..
He was so irritating and ugly as he clenched
his teeth and holds his grip more tight on my
neck.. .
I struggled and keep gasping for air..
"let go of her" Steve shouted, he squeezed his
form away from the other two guys who held
him down ..
He grabbed my attacker by the leg.
"let go of her" he groaned
Tears was rushing down my face as the other
two guys spin him around and banged their
hard blows all over him..
The car light made it all visible, blood was on
his nose and lips, they held him down and
continue blowing and kicking him repeatedly ..
God what have I done, they are gonna kill
him..
I jerked the guy who was attacking me in the
privates and ran right to push at the one
kicking at Steve..
"steveeeee" I staggered back and fell down
instead
A harsh voice suddenly cut through the scene
The guys stopped their attacks, and standing
in front of the car was no other but Eric, ,he
marched forward, wearing his usual black
outfit, behind him was a guy, as ugly as he is...
He stopped few feet away from us , and narrow
his stares at me, his face was dark, and
demonic... Masked by hatred ...he inhale the
hem in his hand and puff out heavy smoke to
airs
"oh samanthan, it's you "
I ignored him and scrambled on my kneels
fearfully and right towards Steve who layed
down wincing in pains
...
A guy grabbed me from behind and made me
knelt on my kneels instead ..
I struggled and kicked to airs
"boss dey talk, you dey craze"
The two guys dragged steve up and shove him
right to his kneels..
He was blood covered ...i cried at the sight
and cursed at eric
"you bastard, you are gonna pay for this,"
He laughed and spanked me hard on the face
...
"shut up, you spoilt silly brat"
Steve glared up and struggled to free his hold
stubbornly from the guys holding him..
"sammmm" he shouted...
I saw the tears and dread in his eyes as he
cried more ...
That was the moment that triggers my brain
back to live
A moment I knew how stupid and foolish I was
for coming right down here after he warned me
not to do anything foolish...
A moment that cast all of my worst nightmare
right in my face,
A moment I knew how my dream is about
coming to pass
God am so sorry Steve.
Eric brought out his knife and stared at it with
so much wickedness, he laughed once more
I hung my head and stared up at him, feeling
so furious and disgusted
..
" your father's good faith and my bad one is
taking you to your grave Sam, he's always the
winning one while I end up losing, I hate him
for that,"
He inhaled his hem once more and puff out the
smoke....
.
"I lost my family the very first day you came to
earth and it was then I realise my brother is
created to win while am made to loose sam,
hahahahah "
his laugh sounds obsessed, more like
someone who has totally turn crazy
"but If I kill you , and send you to your grave
now....me and my dearest brother will both end
up with the same faith right"
"you are disgusting" I spatted out
Suddenly their faces except Eriks got alerted
and shaky when the sirens of the police rented
through the far end of the street...
It seems the two guys grip loosened on Steve
hands , I saw him suddenly free his hold and
strike both guys with his elbow..
He flew up sharply and landed a kick at the
one holding me..
The guy rolled and fell to the ground...
"now run Sam"
Eric was trying to throw his knife at me but
Steve was fast to knock him off ..
I stumbled through the night, chilled to the
bone,
I ran like fire towards the police car..
The first and second one speed towards the
scene,
With tears I panted and stopped the third one .
It was no police car. , but my mum and dad...
With fright, mum opened the car and I rushed
in while dad also raced towards the scene..
"mom how did you" I said shakily
She was trembling while she talk
"just two hours after you left, one of your dads
friend who was a police, called him that a guy
named Andrew came to report at the station
about erik...
How his friend Steve had tracked him and
recorded his voice...
It was right there I knew it was Steve
Me and your dad had to rushed down the
station ..we were surprised when they played
the record...
We never believed it , it was a shocking
moment for us sam...
We were there until the guy called the station
the second time,,
Your dad wouldn't believe it , he wanted to see
with his own eyes how true what he heard in
the record was Sam... "
"he's such a wicked man mum"
I hugged and cried into her arms when
suddenly the car pull to stop...

Desmond pov
My heart slammed when I got to the scene ,it
was a moment of horror for me, I felt so aching
and heart broken to see my only brother
standing with so much redness and hatred ....
I blinked several times and rubbed my eyes,
He looks more like a possessed demon in his
ever black outfit
My hands were trembling, while i pondered
with words.
"erik"
I stood there, reeling, hardly believing it all.
How was this possible?
The only brother I have Surely I was wrong ...
The police matched all his goons to the car..
Both the crippled and agile ones... He was the
only one standing now with a botton on his
hands ...
I passed by the police who pointed their guns
at him
"move away from me"
he shouted
"or am gonna press this botton, all your family
is gonna die I swear"
I moved closer to him unable to still believe
what am seeing..
No one has ever told me I also lost a brother
right on the day my parents and sisters died...
It all seemed so
foreign to me, so unattainable.
"Erik why"
Erik laughed, an awful, evil laugh ...
I've always seen that look in his eyes when
ever our eyes met but guess I never paid any
attention to them..
I felt my throat tightened, Yet instead of fear,
I felt anger, a desire for vengeance ran up my
blood
I ran heavily and knocked him right to the
ground..
The button flew from his hands while we
exchange blows...
"you bastard you dare threatned my daughter "
I shoke him on the neck..
Steve pov:
I released sam from my hold at a sudden
noice,,
Sam gasped at the direction of her dad sudden
knock out against Erik.....
I ran ahead to grab the bottom that flew away
from Erik hand..
Without delay I immediately pressed the
disconnected botton ...
Relieved
I sighed and glance around .
Three police men rushed ahead to stop the
scene ..
They dragged them apart and hold them from
behind,, Sam dad rolled up his kick once more
while he shouted at erik,
Erik evil face was spinning around as though
he was looking for something, once more
again out of control,
He struggled away from their hold, while he
shout..
They dragged him forward suddenly he jumped
and pull out a gun hung beside a police man
waist and pointed it right at Sam who was
moving towards her mum
I watched with horror, and raced towards Sam
“Sam!!!!” my scream was obliterated by the
sound of the gun..
I flew and pushed her sideways and there I
took the bullet in..
I staggered back and widened my eyes in
horror
The fear of dying sent my heart racing..
I fell to the ground while the chills around dried
up my throat.
The pain was something I wouldn't wish for
anyone, it was so unbearable..
I heard voices, they were so close but
seems distant, a shout, sounding as if it were
worlds away. It was followed by several
other voices, shouting my name, their cries
absorbed my brains . It took me a moment to
understand what had
Happened, I lay there, on the ground
watching how my life slowly crawls out on me..
Few hands dragged me... But all I could see
was the dark sky ,the stars and moon were
waving at me..
"steve"
Sam voice came to me like a siren ding, soft
and lilting, tender and healing
I realise I was still alive, I glanced up with
shoking breath and saw her frighten face fill
with tears and fright..
...I smile up at her .... I already risked my life
for her that was enough to show how much I
will always love her right in this life and the
next to come..
Then slowly I closed my eyes as a slumber i
could no
longer resist embraced me
A slumber that took nothing but my soul away
from me..
"steveeeeeeeeeeee"

What the hell is strong with this Sam na. Nothing should happen to lover boy oooo


OP tanks for the update

Sam POV:
At dawn the shooting pains from too much of
tears sent my form aching…
I mo-n and cry out ..
I realize I had fallen asleep on my mums laps
through the night..
I sat up all trembling as she offered me cold
table water.. The cool
flow of the drink soothed me, but the shocking
memory of what had happened to Steve
persisted in my head, Mo-ning softly I
wrapped my arms around myself .
“Mum” I cry again this time she drew me into
her arms
“Its okay darling, I believe Steve is a fighter,
he will be fine ”
In that instant i recalled a statement she had
once made about helplessness, and those
people who fought it,
If only I had told them about Eric,
if only I’d shared everything with them maybe
non of this would have happen..
Steve wouldn’t have took those bullets for me..
. .. And no body would have gotten a share in
this whole mess
But how was I to know… I was only eight and
naive..
Eric threatened me, rather i kept it hidden from
everyone…
“I did this, i caused it all.. mum”
“Its not your fault darling, Eric manipulated an
eight year old mind its normal for you to get
scared, sorry my dear, we were at fault not to
realize”
..
I closed my eyes and rested my head against
my mums Shoulder taking comfort in her
nearness ..
feeling tired of everything and life itself.. i
stood up seconds later after wiping off the
tears in my eyes ..

charming
. My eye felt hurt and swollen.. But how could I
not cry , life without Steve is meaningless…its
as good as nothing, he brought happiness
back to my life,, he saved me from my
demonic uncle … I just can’t bare the feeling
that he’s laying in there in a critical condition
because of me..
“Sam, calm down okay ” she said softly
I glanced around the waiting room
I realized we weren’t alone anymore…
I recognised the men at the far corner talking
to a much smaller nurse to be my dads and
Stevens .. Their face looks disappointed and
baffled…
Guess there was still no news about Steve’s
well fare.. Leaning on a chair at the far end
was a beautiful middle aged woman and a girl
about sixteen , who has quite resemblance
with Steve
I glanced up at them and sniffed..
pain and nausea devoid my Strength.
Both their face were pale despite the growing
warmth of the day ..
Steve mum walked towards me..and gather me
into her arms..
I accepted her embraces and cry hard into
them
” am so sorry we met in this kind of situation
ma’am ”
“Its okay my dear, .. Steve will be fine okay,,,
we just have to believe in God ”
She released me from her hold and smile
between tears …
“He’d told me a lot about you, i admit you are
much more prettier than the way he described
you,”
I nodded and cry more
She sniffles while she cleared the tears in my
face ..
“Its okay darling ”
” here Kate come over here” a pretty girl whose
brown eyes were more like Steve stepped
forward .. Her face moist and dull ..
She was like a beauty from beyond, I was
right about Steve family… Their good looks
were more like an unspeakable charms that
could lure the heart into nothing but love
“Kate, meet Sam ,,,,, your brothers……… ”
Kate cut her mums word
“Woman”
With tears she walked right towards my half
opened arms while i gather her close..
I could sense her nerve tangled as my own…
“Steve must have really loved you, big sis,,,
can I call you that ”
I nodded in her arms and cry more… Both my
mom and Steve’s patted us from behind…
“my pretty angel” Mr Gold voice was heard
seconds later while I went ahead to sort
comfort in his arms too
“Its okay dear, ”
Mrs gold was surprised
..
“Have you guys met”
“Yes ma’am,”
“Yes dear, they were together the day I saw
Steve”
I move to embrace my dad who also gave his
reassurance that Steve would be fine..
Later in the day..
My heart keeps diving and blood pressure
kept in its wake ..
I struggled not to cry again from too much of
tears already…
I keep getting reassurance from everyone yet
no one is coming out yet to tell us about
Steve..
The men kept up their pace through the
morning until they left..
Gradually the day went by..
My mum, Mrs gold and Kate who’d eaten in a
cafe near the hospital came in with food.. But
guess I couldn’t eat cause it would have been
impossible to swallow with a limb that felt as
solid as rock in my throat..
I only sat, hoped and prayed that Steve would
fight to stay alive …
Hours go by, yet my fear and pains increases
by the minute… i sat there silently, staring,
brooding at people who kept offering
reassurances but not the result I so much
needed to hear
We watch as the nurses left, the shift
changed, new nurses came in on duty.
Their manners were more brisk and efficient
but they kept telling us to wait patiently for the
doctor .
More nurses arrived on the floor to make
afternoon turns…
Slowly the waiting room began filling up with
other patient family members who’d come for
visiting hours…
My dad came back twenty minutes earlier
before Steve dad.
I began growing impatient, the feeling that
something bad had happened to Steve struck
my mind..
Tears were falling all over again. I wipe them
off and struggled hard to keep them from
falling
trying to occupy my mind instead I glance
around the room across the
far corner i catch the sight of a little boy
running a truck toy back across the green and
white tiles.. His pregnant mum sat patiently
nearby.. The sight of the boy make me
fantasied I was the pregnant woman sitting
there while we patiently wait for Steve..
Few seconds our face lighted up, we jumped
when a doctor who Introduced himself as
Abraham.. appeared at the door way, a tall
distinguished man was at his side
He shook hands with my dads and Steve’s
We all stare at him eagerly while he speaks.. .
“he is really a lucky guy sirs.. cause the bullet
went through a dispose tissue in the Side of his
belly, underneath his triceps, the operation
went successful well, he’s alive but he’s yet
to regain consciousness, I just want you guys
to stay patient till he does, maybe tomorrow
he’ll be awake by then …. But he won’t be
discharged until two to three weeks time,, so
he can get proper care and treatment for his
wound.. ”
At the sound of that, my heart skipped in
beats.. I watch as the men embraces the
doctor, while both our mums gave
thanksgiving to God.. I hugged on to Kate
tightly and smile… A cooling relieve rushed
through me, a relief that brought happiness
bubbled from deep within… My Steve is alive,,
oh thank you God
“Can we see him just for a minute doctor” I
heard myself ask the doctor eagerly
The doctor smiled towards me.. He hesitated
for a moment before he speak
“Okay I’ll only allow one person but make it be
brief ”
i glance around meeting eye with both of our
parent , , I smile at Kate also whose stare
were also intent on Mine..
I clear the sob forming in my face and nodded
a thanks
I moved with the doctor who led me to the ward
he is in .., ,
I opened the door slowly and blink back tears..
He was in an hospital wear, looking as
handsome as ever…
His skin was pale and plastered in the nose,
forehead and jaw.. ..
his face Looks more younger more like a boy
of fifteen.. His hands were lying on the sheet
on either side of the bed.. I pull a lime green
chair up the bed, sat down
and slowly took his strong right hand into mine
,
I kissed on them repeatedly and stare up at
him..
Oh God how much I adore him !
I adored the way he coaxed me into a
softness i hadn’t known i possessed. i adored
the way he brought me out of myself. i adored
the way he made me feel free and beautiful, . i
loved his smile, his eyes,his body. i loved the
warmth of him when he’s near.. the strength of
him when he
hugged me, the fire of him when he released
my passion in answer to his. In his arms, i was
unafraid.
I love him for staying alive for me, he has
always been that bold type, so strong,, and
someone more larger than life ,
its just felt so odd to see him like this …
” I can’t wait to see those perfect brown eye
of yours again Steve, those beautiful eyes
that tells me how much you love me.. The eyes
that speaks of nothing but love whenever you
look at me.”
.
I felt the movement in his finger.. Eagerly
I glanced up at him but his eyes were closed ..
Few seconds later
A nurse opened the door..
“Ma’am ”
And I knew right its time I leave, I stood up,
stare down at him one last time, slowly I bent
and place my lips softly to his…
“Thank you for saving my life Steve.. And
thanks for staying alive for us all,, I love
you”..
I glanced back and followed the nurse and
right out to the door.
Stave POV:
Soft sound drifted towards me, the distant
click of the clock counting off the seconds, the
padded foot steps against the tile floor .
the scent was that of the disinfectant and
something else I couldn’t name.
It cost me a surprising energy to lift my eye lid
and glance around.. The first thing I saw was a
round clock on the wall, then a television
mounted in the corner, a railing like that of a
shower looped around the bed..
I realize I was in the hospital… The last thing I
remember was getting shot and awaking to see
Sam beautiful teary face..
I said something to her before everything went
blank…
I glanced up at the clock… Its 10pm..
A bandage was tied heavily around my
stomach..
carefully I moan to sit myself up, stretching
awkwardly I reach for the button and rang for a
nurse .
A disembodied voice responded..
“Mr gold, you are awake, that’s wonderful I’ll
be right in … a guy is here waiting though “….
A nurse arrived seconds later.. Taking along
some instrument
Her wide friendly smile was enough to put me
at ease..
She thrust a thermometer forward and stare
down at me…
“Mind, am to put this in your mouth”
I nodded
while I watch her thrust the thermometer in my
mouth
“You said my friend is here a female or a male”
i asked the minutes she gauge out the
temperature out of my mouth..
“In a minute sir ” she smile gorgeously and
reach her tiny hand to my wrist . She stood
quiet,,, concentrating on my pulse for a
moment before she continued .
“Your family just left about five hours back, we
never expected you’ll wake up so fast, but a
guy name Andrew is here to see you, If the
doctor permits him, I’ll send him In”
I nodded and smile up at her
“Pls, I would prefer you let him in”
Few minutes after the nurse left…the doctor
came in.. He introduces himself and ask few
questions .. the calmness and smile on his
face made me realise he was indeed glad for
my speed recovery…
.. We exchanged conversation and after he left
Andrew came right in with a sober smile on his
face…
“Glad you are awake man” his deep voice
crooned from the
door,
i smile up at him while I stretch my neck to
glance behind ..
He raised his brow and matched his heavy
boot into the room..
“Man you checking for chicks right, huh,
chicks ”
I smile up at him
“guess I do”
“You do not possibly think I would bring a
chick right to the hospital…man, am I that
bad … I never realize have gone so terribly
worst through the years… Gosh ”
My smile was slow and pretty sincere .
“Worst to the core Andrew… You are an
obsessed fool when it comes to women ”
He laughed..
“Man you are so mean, i wouldn’t deny that but
anyway I had to rush down here when a police
gave me the news”.. ‘
I nodded …
“You took a pretty excellent part in calling the
police Andrew, it really help in taking that
psycho down really ”
“Yes man really but that’s a pretty brave stuff
to do for a chick…… ” he said rolling up his
eye
I raised my brows up and frown
“Andrew!!! ..”
He laughed
“Oh woman… I mean lady that’s a slip of
tongue man… Am sorry ”
” Sam is not just anybody….I will make it
clear.. She is my life and if I hear you address
her like that again am gonna ring the nurse to
get your ass kick out of here”
“Oh man you wouldn’t want to do that,,
but talking of the truth that nurse gat this you
know, she’s damn hot”
he said moving towards the bed
I bit my lip and smile while i watch him reach for
a seat..
” you’ve gone totally wide Andrew … so how
Ann and Caleb”
“Mmmmm Well Caleb’s is in a pretty bad
shape, but He’s going good, Ann on the other
hand .. she kept insisting her bed to be shifted
into Caleb’s ward… You know what…..
i think I suspect those two,, ”
I smile … i could feel his now serious gaze
stared pensively at me
“But are you sure you’re good man…
“Am good Andrew… …”
.but I needed a favor from you man, not an
immediate stuff though, ”
“What’s that man, ”
“It should be a secret ok, no telling anybody ”
The next day :
Sam POV
Eager to get the hospital ,6.0clock found my
dress.. I hadn’t had a blink of sleep after the
doctor called last night about Steve recovery .
I can’t believe he’s woken up.. God…
Hurriedly I finished putting on a short armless
pink gown with my ever pink baby shoe..
Read ” Beyond captivating ” by the same
author ( Op. Amina )
. I tie up my braid
I could feel my pulse racing, but yet I was
patient to apply some make up..
I just wanted to look more prettier for my man..
after one last glance at the mirror i raced
upstairs to my parents room …I gasped when I
realize they were yet to take their bath .
“Mum, dad I can’t believe this, we agreed on
six yesterday ”
“Sam its just twenty past six, calm down dear,
” my mum replied..
I watch my dad walk tiredly into the bathroom…
“Oh Sam, your dad is getting old…. ”
“dad!!!… its better you guys get freshened up
fast, or am gonna leave you both behind”
” no one is taking Steve away from you Sam so
chill ” mum said playfully
but i was fast to race out and shut the door
behind me ,
as impatiently I started pacing everywhere, i
kept staring at the time repeatedly…
I manage to take the tea and bread the maids
prepared ….
Yet my pulse wouldn’t stop racing,
it took like forever before mum and dad would
get prepared even if its not seven o clock yet…
They also had a little meal and at exactly five
after seven we were all prepared to leave…
the hospital environment was still as quiet and
non crowdy when we arrive,
i made my way hurriedly into steves ward
leaving both mum and dad with the doctor..
I opened the door to his ward slowly and there
he was.. Already up looking all attended to …
From the sound he glanced up from the novel
in his hand..
Greedy for the sight of him, my gazed rover all
over his form…
A smile curled up his lips as his gaze slid
longingly to mine.. And the love I read there
convinced me that, my Steve is really back
i voiced his name in a breathy sound, as tears
of happiness slowly trickle down my cheeks.
“Come here Sam”

” Steve….. Oh god Steve”
I moved closer to him, gentle not to touch his
wound… I directed my mouth to his, not giving
him time to talk or respond while I roughly
planted wet kisses over both his plastered and
smooth face.. All that mattered now was
holding him , kissing him and glorying in the
truth that he lived…
i raised my eyes to meet his which were
searching my face relentlessly.
“oh God Sam”
His smile faded as his gaze touched over my
features.
He was staring at my form…
I anxiously investigated his injuries but he
stopped me
“I’m fine babe ”
“I know but”
“Hey am here talking to you aren’t I, the
wound would heal up in no time ”
A long, tense silence filled the air
As he slid his hands down my waist and down
, my eyes widened
“Mr Gold do you know what you are really
doing anyone could come in ”
He smile seductively
“You are just too beautiful to ignore Sam”
“If you keep that up,then” i kid thickly,
He laughed and wrapped my head to his
chest…

“Then what, told you no death could take your
man away from you… ”
I nodded and smile
“thank you so much Steve… ”
What!!!
“Thank you For saving my life.. ”
“Oh” he smile towards me softly
” no problem ma’am”

Hiii guys I feel so reluctant to end this,,
But what choice do I have I have to end it
right…
I just don’t wanna leave you guys yet…
But I assure you I’ll be back sooner than
expected…
Love you all guys
Sam POV:
This past eighteen days brought nothing but
perfect radiance to my world…
After witnessing the trial of uncle Eric who was
later confirmed as one of the
deadliest assassins in the society ..
He was sentenced to death along with his
tyrants…
“You all are to be thrown into a tank of boiling
water until death.. ”
Court!!!!! ”
My hurray was the loudest
Gosh…
Everything became so real and alive… .
I began laughing at little things,
I show interest in most things and
everything I never really paid attention to…
I became my “lively and cool babe” as Steve
would address me whenever i walk right into
the VIP ward he’s been shifted to..
either I walk in smiling broadly at him. . Or
placing my hands to my hips and talking
seductively
I became the cool charming and jovial Sam
with so many interest and beautiful personality
i never believed I possessed…
Talk of the eye of guys whenever I walk with
my high hill and flaunting my new hair style
along with it.. my white teeth wouldn’t stop
glittering towards any passers by…
“Waoh hi pretty” a guy moving towards his car
wave at me a day I was walking Steve into the
cafe for a meal
“..hey dude, Can’t you see, she’s with a man..

Steve call out angrily but pity the guy only
shakes his head and smile broadly towards our
direction ..
“Steve, come on you don’t have to get jealous
he only greeted me ”
“greeting my foot Sam,am very sure
if am not here that guy would definitely ask you
out ,
am jealous that it okay, am jealous ” he
admitted angrilly
Totally alerted he did nothing but struck his
eyes wide out at any guy who stare at me
suspiciously while we eat,,,
The existence of Steve in my life makes it more
romantic and beautiful…
each passing day brought me nothing but Joy..
,
i get to know more about Steve,
His likes and dislikes.. His best food, best
color and so much more
… After visiting hours of his and my parents i
most times waited to spend the night with him
How do i describe this, sometimes we kissed
our self to the stuffing we barely noticed if any
nurse was behind the door knocking their
hands out…
Steve fast recovery was a miracle itself… His
wound heal so fast from major to minor…
Coworkers and friends came to visit, gradually i
get to meet most of his friends…Matthew,
Andrew, Joshua, Akim, Rolland , slim dude
,and Jacob
Those guys are the most craziest guys have
ever met…
Being among so many guys felt so wield the
first time they came to visit but getting to know
them made me realize how friends can be one
of the most important people in ones life..
I saw how Steve mingle along with them I get
to see his jealous and crazy attitude, how he
onetime rescued me from his friends who were
all but admiring the way I look.
that day was the first time i heard Steve
speaking pidgin so fluently ..
God, his relationship with his friends was hell
of a crazy one, I felt so small and odd
sometimes they came to visits… the craziest
among them was Andrew whom Steve told me
to be Caleb’s brother …
The guy is nothing but an hush hush, so funny
like…
He get to receive calls twenty times a minutes,
at the sound of chick.. his other friends would
all but shout at him until they kick him out….
I hardly believe the sound of my laugh
sometimes i found myself laughing
uncontrollably along with them.
i visited Steve’s parents more often presenting
gifts and much more of my attention..
Steve sister became more of my kid sister and
best friend , sometimes after checking up on
Steve I take her out for shopping, show her
things big sis would do for a kid sis….
Every one of these days meant so much to
me…
Now Smiling broadly, today was supposed to
be the day Steve gets discharged from the
hospital.
i noticed as the crack of sun peaks out through
the curtain of my room.
Walking bare footed
I opened the curtain so wide and smile as the
first rays of the sun graces the Earth.
the clouds become lit with fabulous, warm light
as the rising sun announces a beautiful day..
“Wao, why do I sensed today would be so
perfect… ”
As quickly I found my way to the bathroom
A smile tickled my lips as i sank down into the
warm water, stretching my long graceful legs
before me

i closed my eyes and cocked my face up,
absorbing its warmth,, then sighing with
delight,
This was everything i wanted… A Good life,
with the existence of a man … I mused with a
tingle of excitement, directing a silent message
of thanks to God and my parents for sending
Steve to me
… He loved me right, fought for me right,
defeated my enemy right what more could I
wished for….
I just can’t wait to See him
I got out of the tub,
after applying all sort, and searching
through my cloths i end up putting on a long
fitted blue shinny gown with a white high hill.
I finished it up by hanging a white bag To my
wrist ..
Fully ready i was making my way out when my
eye catches the sight of the calendar.
Today is Saturday, I was supposed to get my
period today…
I moved towards the mirror, Steve was right,
he noticed everything…
most things about me has changed,
My face is as smooth as olives.., full bre*st,
and more lighter skin
I smile towards the glass remembering how he
was putting his hands on them when he told
me… Yes my br**st has became fuller… But
those are the signs I get during ovulation
Sighing deeply…
I glance at the wall
Sh-t its past ten… I made my way out hurriedly
meeting with my mum and dad ever smiling
face…
“Hi mum, hi dad thank God you guys are
ready, remember Steve is to be discharged
today” I walked careful taking a step by step
towards them
“Yes darling but didn’t he call you ”
mum and dad said at the same time
I tap on my phone hurriedly… And smile up at
them..
“No he didn’t”…
“Well he’s been discharged from the hospital
since last night” mum said while moving
towards the sofa to arrange something’s in her
bag …
I stare at them surprisingly…
“What!!!, I left him at the hospital around nine
last night, he didn’t tell me anything, I mean
no body told me anything, what’s all this all
about, I have to call Steve right away I can’t
believe this ”
blinking rapidly I searched through the phone
in my hands
“Calm down baby, he told us to bring you right
to this address”
Mum raised up her phone towards me while i
glanced at the text on it
“So” mum said slowly
“since you are all ready… And looking so
breathtaking then I think we should get going
then”
I stare at both of them suspiciously and frown,,
“Okay let’s go, but Steve would get a slap for
what he did”
“He took a bullet for you, don’t you think a slap
would mean nothing ”
I roll up my eyes while I watch both of them
laughed out loud..
“Would you please let’s get going now mum”
We made our way out and into the car…
The reception was a specially reversed
one, one of the most classy one in town.. I
moved in between the chattering group of
people.. Steve friends, co workers, families…i
glance around surprisingly..everywhere was
beautifully organized and decorated
Kate Rushed to me at instant glance.. I hugged
her so tightly and stare down at her
Her black hairs was wound into plaits and held
by a speedwell
“Wao you are looking so Beautiful Kate, where
is Steve ” I said hardly hearing my own voice
“Haven’t seen him too” Kate replied
“Really”
“Is someone celebrating a birthday”
“big sis to tell you the truth I have to idea”
I glance sideways to speak with Mum and dad
only to see them both at the far end
exchanging greetings with Steve parents …
What’s all this all about and where the hell is
Steve…
Gosh feeling nervous already, inner heat
covered my form while I allow Kate take my
hands along with hers we made our ways into
the hush of crowds
Most faces around were all the ones I
recognized
The guys were in suits, while the ladies were
all in gowns..
Steve friends were all looking so perfect and
manly …
I smile towards them as normally Andrew was
surrounded with four different chicks.. They all
looked up at me and I immediately felt all airs
vacated in my lungs.
With in seconds they all surrounded me
saying their Hello’s and commenting on my
look…
I wasn’t given a bit of chance to talk, or ask
about Steve I could only stare and laugh at
whatever they say..
.
“Hey,” i heard a voice from behind I turned and
smile broadly, surprised to see Caleb looking
so handsome in an arch suit,, I recognized the
lady beside him to be Ann…
Of course they had both came to visit Steve
one or twice at the hospital
.. His eyes was calm on mine his voice quiet, i
could bet he is totally opposite to Andrew
“excuse me ma’am please have been
searching all around for an angel in a blue
gown and white hills emmmmm could you help
me locate her please”
he said smiling broadly towards me
“Oh really ” I raised my brows and glance
around…
“I think that angel might be me”
He Nod and laughed out loud.
“You are really beautiful Sam ”
“Thank you Caleb”
I extend my greetings to Ann also whose
hands was locks into Caleb’s…
They both looks so dazzling together…
I watch as the waiter served wine all around…
How couples stood at every corner of the
room.. They were dancing slowly to the music
while I move around greeting all of the guest
including Stevens parents…
I could hear the repeated, pounding of my
heart banged so loudly i hardly hear myself
think. The rapt audience
didn’t help much either
“God where is Steve”…i murmured angrily to
myself ….. i mean it when I said am gonna
slap him,
Kate suddenly tugged my arm i stare at her
and turned around, my mouth flew open. There
in the center of the spotlight in the middle of
the dance floor was Steve
“Steve” I gasped
He was looking so tall and breath taking .. . he
winked and smile broadly towards me, he was
so handsome to the extent I had to open my
mouth in wonder.. He had a different stylish
hair cut… A beautiful black fitted suit neatly
hung to his strong body… His face was just as
sparkling like the fire flies.. So clean and fresh
I glanced at the crowd around me feeling very
confused and shy…
I saw my parents at the far corner smiling…
Gosh they left me all alone to myself .
God this is so embarrassing
All of a sudden the spot light glared
on me, I glanced up and saw Steve reached
his hands out on the dance floor I gave every
one a slight glare feeling reluctant and shy..
Suddenly Kate grab my hands and led me
towards the dance floor
I had no clue what was going on, but I was
sure it was about to be epic.
I stopped when I heard Steve tapped on the
the microphone the DJ gave him
“Sam” he said staring at me
I could hear the thudding in my heart as his
face grew from a smiling one to a serious
expression..
he pull me closer to him. His mouth softened,
and his hand took in the white bag
that swirled around my wrist…
Someone collected it as he reached it
sideways
he slid his hands down my curves, and hips..
At the sudden quietness of the crowd I had to
look sideways only to see them smiling and
staring at us
“Steve what are you doing ” I said quietly…
He didn’t reply but turn towards the audience
“listen everyone…. i want to share this little
secret with you guys today.. ”
He stare my ever shying form once more
before he continued
“Emmmm” he cracked his voice
“Before i was transfered to abuja as her
personal assistance , you know I always hate
it whenever my colleagues made mention of
her, not to talk of how irritated i always felt
whenever they gossip about her….
I never paid any interest you know….
Cause the more I hear it, the more I hate
her…. ”
The cause of gasps from the crowd, matched
with mine .
Steve continued..
“I felt so terribly worst and sick the first day Mr
lewis announced my transfer and i started
questioning God why me … You guys should
know how terribly worst i must have felt …. ”
He smile
The crowd laughed, I did also but with little
sob in my eyes..
“but when I set my eyes on her, “.
He turn towards me this time
” bossy or not, I don’t know how but I instantly
fell heads over in love with her…God i never
believed in love at first sight until i met you
Sam… ”

“You’re everything I need” he said.
“Everything I’ll ever need. And I’ve needed
and loved you, Every single
second I watch you bloom from a wild and
angry Sam to a lively and charming one.. ”
I choked out a half laugh and half sob.
“You’ve been my sunshine, my babe, and a
woman I don’t want to live without.
it doesn’t matter how long we dated, a day,
two day, weeks…
A long period of dating proved nothing, a life
time of loving and staying together does… And
I believe we are qualified for that”
“I want you to spend the rest of your life with
me, ”
“Marry me, Sam. Marry me and give me
forever.”
Steve held open a silver box and my hands
but rushed to my face to cover my mouth that
hung open
I felt my eyes go wide. Felt my heart kick hard.
From my peripheral vision i was aware that the
entire audience was waiting for my answer
while they
“Ooooooull
“Are you going to reject me in front of at least
seventy of our closest friends and family?
Steve asked lightly.
I looked into his eyes and realized he wasn’t
nearly as calm, and unruffled as he was
pretending to be,
“No,” I said.
Steve expression grew very serious, and there
was immediately an absolute silence in the
room.
“No,”
he repeated, clearly trying to figure out what
exactly i was saying no to
i flew right into his arms and hugged him as i
screamed yes! He stand and twirled me around
while he laughed out loud..
“God Sam ”
He placed the
elegant ring on my finger and kissed me
passionately in front of everyone. I turned and
smiled towards the crowd and back at Steve
who pull me into his arms…
“For saying yes may I then have the pleasure
of this dance ma’am”
I wrapped my arms around his neck and
smile..
“the pleasure is mine sire ”
I buried my head in his chest while the the clap
around almost busted my ears ..
“oh Steve thank you so much ” I said softly
“What”
“Thank you for everything ”
He smile s*ductively….
“thank you instead sam ”
Steve POV…
few days after I proposed to Sam I found out
she was fifteen days gone…
I became the most happiest man on earth
When I heard the news ..
It felt odd but she actually conceived the first
time we made love…
I get congratulations from friends and family..
everything just happened so fast…
I was gonna be father… i threw a huge party
among my friends for that…
Now its been six months after our wedding…
..
I walk into our bedroom and stare at sam
beautiful form for a long time
“What ” she said when she noticed my
presence
Smiling broadly i Slide on the bed and
caressed my hands tenderly on her heavy
stomach…
“And how’s our baby boy doing honey ”
“Kicking ” she said smiling..
“Steve Do you hear that ”
” what No ” I said staring eagerly at her
stomach
“He’s saying hi to his daddy ”
I laughed and drew her closer
“I can’t wait to have him in our mist Sam… I
love you”
“and I love you more for making it
possible…Steve.. ”
I nodded and smile …
“he’s the first among twenty that’s yet to
come, ”
“What!!!! ” she shouted
“yes ”
I laughed and kissed her stomach..
