Chilo woke up refreshed, she was happy and smiling, stood up and greeted her sleeping mother, she quickly fetch her pot and headed to the stream as she hum a song.
she was about making the bend towards the stream path,when someone called her,it was ife,Oyeku mother.

Ife: my daughter good morning, please have you seen Oyeku this morning?, he ran away from home this morning and he was very sick. We thought he would be with you.

Chilo was alarmed, Oyeku was sick and he ran away from home, it doesn't make sense,what could make him run away,and where could he be be?.

Chilo: I haven't seen him today, and as a matter of fact,I am just waking up from sleep, I was just about to go get water from the stream as you can see,but what could have gotten into Oyeku?, and I never knew he was sick,I saw him yesterday, and he was healthy.

Ife: it all started last night, when he went out,only to come back home with a fever,oh!,where can he be now?, you know what? you can go, I will go check for him at ola place,Ayeni has gone to check him at Uzo hut.

Chilo: go mother, I would quickly go to the stream and fetch a pot, then I would join you in the search.

Ife: thank you my daughter, I would be going now( she turned and left)

Chilo resumed to the stream,thinking about the mystery situation at hand, she did not seems to understand what is going on. What could make Oyeku to run away from home? was he angered?, where could he have run to.

She kept on thinking till she got the stream, behold, she saw Oyeku in the stream, he was washing himself, his face was expressionless, his eyes were red. He had seen her,so she walked straight towards him.

Chilo: Oyeku, what is wrong?,( she dropped her pot and stooped) everyone is at home searching for, you left everyone anxious, please talk to me,what is wrong?.

Oyeku forded his way to the shore and came out of the water,he was dripping with water,Chilo could see a tear drop from his eyes,he walked to a rock and sat down as the sun shone in his wet dark skin.

Chilo walked to him and held his wet hands,despite the cold water,his body was still hot, indeed he has a fever. She touched his head, it was hot too.

Chilo: Oyeku, you have fever,you should be home taking treatments, please, come let go home quickly, your body is too hot ( she tried to pull him up,but Oyeku pulled her down).

Oyeku: ( he spoke silently and slowly, and his voice cracks when ever he tries to weep) Our men conquered usialo, we took slaves,plenty slaves, our men ran after usialo maidens and deflowered them,then( he paused as he try to stop himself from crying) then she came to me,Dede came to me, she told me to protect her,that she doesn't want to be raped,she doesn't want to die,I promised her to protect her, that I would save her and return her to usialo, I promised her that I would not allow her to die( he burst into tears),but I have failed, she was slaughtered last night, they cut her neck( he wept weakly as chilo brought his head to her bosom and consoled him like a mother consoling his son, other maidens are at the stream now,but the two lovers were still together.




Ogbo was mad, he couldn't bear it,he had tried to kidnap chilo at the stream today, but that stupid boy had arrived,accompanied by flies,he hid himself and prayed that the fool will leave quickly,but the boy had take his time to wash himself, not only that ,he had also taking his time to weep the way his parent would weep over him,when he Ogbo would kill him.

He almost, tried to sneak to the fool and stab him, but he had heard footsteps, it was chilo, she is here,he felt defeated. He had watch her expression as she saw Oyeku, her expression was full of love and concern,he became even angry at chilo too.

What made him totally mad, was when chilo hugged that boy, he couldn't bear the sight, he sneaked away, anger burnt in his heart like fire,he knows now that he would kill somebody soon, he would kill that boy,he tried to calm himself, but he couldn't.

Now,he is at Maku hut,where they had been staying, but he meet no one at home,he was hungry, really hungry, he would have gone to the stream to go fish,but he can't,no he can't, he would wait for legun and his Majesty, surely they would come home with food.



Arore sat under the improvised shade at the market, people are everywhere, noises from every direction, but she wasn't distracted, her attention was on Maku. He was busy attending to customers, and casting evil glances to men who eyes Arore, Arore noticed this and she laughed inside.

She observed Maku, he is different, very different, he had never seen a man like him before,a man that would make her forfeit her assignment, she watched as he poured wine from gourd to gourd,cracking jokes with everybody,but will always cast a glance at her every minute to be sure she is still there.

Abi, who knows if my own fathers are one of those evil men,may God have mercy on us. thank you Sir ashtoda,your comment is so motivating

For the first time in many years, she is beginning to fall in love again, " a dangerous love ", she thought.
She was assigned by the great goddess to punish Maku with lust. She had been informed about Maku atrocity and coming to Aro, before hand. When Maku came,she doesn't need to find him because he came to her by himself, she had decided to go serve him personally, She could feel Maku's lust,it was great.

The first time Maku made love to her was the day of bondage,it was that day he became sexually bound to her, it was that day,that the seed of painful lust was sowed in him.

Yes,lust is painful if it kept growing,after all,lust is an illusion,a mirage of pleasure, a pleasure that cannot be hold onto forever,when you get close to the pleasure of list,then you would know that it was an illusion after all.

But Maku was strong, lust that was sowed in him was the one that can get a mortal to go insane, a lust that was rooted in the feminine attraction of the goddess herself, she wanted to confirm this,when she asked Maku that who was more sweet? she or the goddess maiden at Oyo,. Maku had said she,and it was true, Maku cannot lie to her at that moment, because she can read him.

After the sex that got Maku immobile, she started developing attraction towards him,and it got her scared. She had decided to avoid him,but could not bear it,the more Maku lust after her the more,she loves him.

She had decided to break the spell of lust,but Maku still kept coming, but this time he was coming for love not for lust,no,she can't love, it is better, she end his life now before she fall More into love.

She had tried to kill him at the stream by drowning him,but legun had showed up and broke her spell,now the love had eating into her that she have accept fate.

Oyeku sat outside the his hut,chilo sat beside beside him keeping his company, it was evening,the sunset was beautiful, the breeze blowed gentle, and the surrounding smelt like fresh grass.
Every minute chilo would touch Oyeku's head and feel his temperature.

Chilo: should I bring you food? you haven't eaten ever since

Oyeku he shook his head and shrugged) I don't want to eat, I'll vomit

Oyeku fever has gone down and he is feeling better now,but he couldn't get Dede off his mind,and he doesn't even want her memory to go,he blame himself for not asking Ichendu to give her to him,after all Ichendu was nice to him, but cowardice and doubt made him lose Dede.

The memory of her slain body,came back to him,and a tear dropped from his eyes. He would never see Dede again.

Chilo: you are still crying, is there something more between you and this Dede ( she is getting annoyed and suspicious) because if not that there is something more,you would have stop all these, after all,she wasn't the only slave that was killed.

Oyeku was stung, how could chilo talk like this, isn't she a human too?, how could she expect him to forget Dede so easily, no, he can't.

Oyeku: you can't understand

Chilo: ( getting really annoyed) understand what!, I know you loves her( she broke into tears) I know you do,it unfair( Ayeni was against the wall ,eavesdropping the lovers,but when he heard what was going on he came out)

Ayeni: Omo( he faced chilo) calm down, do calm down,what is going on exactly? ( chilo narrated the whole thing to baba).

He knew it,Ayeni knew it, that night, Oyeku had left the house, while Ayeni and ife were fast asleep, suddenly Ayeni saw a girl standing at the door of his hut,she was drained with blood, but he couldn't move nor could he speak, the girl had spoke to him.

Ghost: stand up Ayeni, Oyeku is in trouble


She didn't say more than that, then she traveled away with the wind, Ayeni had stood up and search for Oyeku in his room, but he wasn't there,he search the whole compound, he couldn't find him.

He finally decided to seek spiritual assistance, he had consult his clairvoyance demon, who told him Oyeku is about to be attacked by a wicked demon, he immediately began work,he started invoking the Ori( guardian force) of Oyeku, because only Ori could save Oyeku at that point, if his Ori is fortunate, it will respond and bring him home, but if his Ori is unfortunate Oyeku shall be under the mercy of the demon.

He had called his Ori three times and fortunately it responded and set Oyeku free from the grip of the demon, now everything was clear.

Ayeni: ( speaking to chilo) my daughter, you go home, I will talk to Oyeku ( chilo kneeled and took her leave,Ayeni faced Oyeku) you ,you are playing two girls at the same time ( Oyeku wanted to speak but baba waved him down) tomorrow, cheer yourself up and go meet her,tell her sweet things, and then come back and tell me the outcome.

Oyeku couldn't help but laugh at baba ancient romance techniques of cheats,baba has lit his mood.

@ideadoctor, thanks for story.. you have certainly made my day with your regular updates.


Keep the update coming..

Ideadoctor:
awww! thank you, that was encouraging, but my work is not worthy of been published for now, you know a lot of grammatical errors,lack of organisation and coherence, this is my first experience of writing a story,I believe I would have improved when I will write the second

That is good, with time and practise, u will achieve perfection. Hope to see more of ur works here on NL and publish books in the nearest future....

Ayeni: now tell me what happened at the forest that night, what do you see?.

Oyeku had wanted to tell baba about the experience, but the thought of Dede had killed other thoughts, but right now he would like to tell baba, baba would be able to explain his encounter.

Oyeku narrated the whole thing to baba who listen with keen interest.

Ayeni he adjusted his garment) Oyeku, you are very lucky, very very lucky,the demon you came across is a very wicked one,it is called "Ebora", the Ebora society hates humans, they are very Territorial and fierce, Eboras are very ugly and awkward in appearance, in contrast with human beauty and symmetry.

They are usually loners,which means they moves and lives alone away from their same species,their jealousy against humans made them hurt humans, especially in terms of taking away human attraction and beauty.

For example, if that Ebora that you saw,manage to collide with you, he may take away your,sight or your limbs or your power of speech or just make you paralyze, he will make you something that the human society abhors, so that you can feel what they felt in terms of beauty and attraction,but Ebora rarely kills humans.( he faced Oyeku, who had been attentive to the anecdote,he shivered when baba mentioned what the demon could do to him,nevertheless, he enjoyed the talk) now do you see that you are very lucky, it was your Ori, your head, that saved you, if not, your story would be different today.

Oyeku was indeed grateful to his Ori, it is unwise to move around at midnight, baba had always told him,but it was a condition that propel him to do so,but right now,he has been fascinated about the mystics that comes with his explanation, he wants to know more.

Oyeku: baba tell me more,I want to know more about those beings( he adjusted and faced baba looking very serious).

Ayeni grinning) you are just like Uzo, always interested by the unseens,I won't tell you, night is coming,I don't want you to come to me in the night if you should have nightmares.

Oyeku: baba,I am a man now, I have seen a demon in person so I won't be scared talking about them,baba please tell me more,remember baba,you said I should always seek for knowledge, that every knowledge I acquires on earth will be useful to me one day, you said so.

Ayeni: ( he frowned) if you have nightmare today,don't come to me,if you do,I will not allow you in,now sit well and let me tell you about the unseens.

Demons walked this earth before the sons of men,that is why we call them Irumole. They are powerful and awful. They have a natural tendency to do harm to men, but olodumare had given men the greatest Ashe.

Olodumare had divided time between men and demons,from day to day men would move around, and from night to night demons would move around,and none of the two must interfere with the affairs of the other,in time and in territory.
For man to be able to stick to the agreement, olodumare created sleep, man would sleep in the night so that demons can move around in the night, and in the day demons would sleep and men would move around.
But among the sons of men and the demons,there are the pact breaker and the pact breakers are the unfortunates,you are a pact breaker last night, you move around at night, not only that you went as well to their territory,that demon has the permission of olodumare to harm you last night, but your Ori was strong.
Also some demons also break pact,some move around in the day, these demon are liable to be enslaved by sons of men,who knows the ancient ways,the enslaved demons could be used for men's daily labor, such has working them on their farms,or forcing them to teach them wisdoms that they had acquired in their numerous years on earth.
Some ambitious men,could pay demons a friendly visit to make deals and pacts that will benefit the two party, when a demon fulfill his part,then a man must also fulfil his own part,this pact may become a covenant overtime, a covenant may last a life time for a man, but demons lives longer so they extend the covenant to other descendant of men who makes pacts.
Magicians, warriors, fishermen, hunters and medicine men are good patronizers of demons, including drummers.

Just like snakes, demons are not the same in kinds,they varies in power and in intelligence, some are usually good to men in their society, while others are not,examples of their kinds are,Ebora,the one I mentioned earlier, Iwinrin the sacred flame,that men see,but cannot near,no matter how they move close,iwinrin are bit tolerant of humans, but they may be malevolent or benevolent, some iwinrin had guide a lot of lost people home with their sacred flame, and some had got people lost, powerful hunters had captured a lot of iwinrin by deception.
Another is Egbere, this demon is very fond of humans,he always want to be found in human society, immediately an egbere,grows enough to walk and move,it begins to desire to go to human society, and immediately it feet is strong enough, he picks his mat and travels to human society, sleeping wherever sleeps meet him,but when an egbere get to the human society, he would not find companion, because he is ugly and strange, full of sores and stinking, egbere would cry and cry, but men would hate him more,Then by the Ashe olodumare had given to him, he would sought to possess a human body,so that he can mingle with humans.

Thanks bro

But,he could not possess anyone who had experienced humanity,so he tampers with foetus. This foetus will finally grow up to be a man,but he will be more of an slowpoke that does not fit the human society,because of this pregnant women had to take caution of the time they move around, lest they become unfortunate.

Another one is Shigidi,shigidi is short, muscular and bulky, he lurks around the shadows,he is a mischievous demon that likes to cause men pain and discomfort by choking them in their sleep.

Shigidi will wander round human huts at midnight searching for a man whose Ori is sleeping,he would attack the sleeping man and choke him till his Ori or any of his ancestral god chases the Shigidi away,if a man is so unlucky and unfortunate that he had no Ori or any other protective deity, Shigidi would choke him till death.

Because Shigidi is all ways visiting human society and because of their reckless guts of physically struggling with men,they are usually captured by wise men, who may use them for some evil purpose.
There are also many more,Abikus,Emeres and other nature dwelling demons like iroko.


Baba was right, fears has crept into, him,now,he couldn't go to his room,baba had left him outside after the great explanation, it is already night, and he his hungry,Baba's mysticism had made him forgot his sorrows for now.

He remembered how chilo left him this evening, he knew she needed an explanation,he had to go see her,before it get too late. He stood up and informed baba that he wants to see chilo.

He could see her face as the flame from the earthen stove illuminated the surrounding,she was talking with her mother, he wondered what she is probably discussing with her mother, he could see her mother laughing, certainly, it wasn't about their tussle this evening.

He walked slowly towards the mother and daughter, they had both stopped talking and watch him come.

Oyeku: good evening iya


mother: good evening son,chilo told me you are not well,how are you doing now?.

Oyeku: I am well now iya,please I want to see chilo for some minutes( he glance at chilo as she looked away,her mother stood up and went inside,Oyeku walked towards chilo and sat beside her,but chilo stood and walked away from the hut towards the tree at the front of her hut, Oyeku followed her,and held her waist).

Oyeku: I am very sorry chilo, if I made you feel bad by my reactions and words this evening,you should know that I never love anyone except you, I swear, please look at me( he turn are around to see her covering her mouth with her hand,suppressing her laughter) why are you laughing?, what is wrong?.

Chilo: ( laughing) continue, continue what you are saying, am listening ( she shook her head as she laughed)

Oyeku smiling) is that your way of telling me that you are not angry with me?

Chilo: ( frowned) who told you I am not angry with you( she rolled her eyes) am listening.

Oyeku: well,that's all I have to say.

Chilo surprised) That is all?, won't you tell me you love me?.

Oyeku: ( he laughed) but, I have said that earlier.

Chilo: say it again now,I want to hear now ( she folded her hands ).

Oyeku: okay, Chilo I love you,( he put his mouth in her ear and whispered) in fact more than I love my mother.

Chilo: ( she covered her mouth in surprise) stupid boy,you really do?

Oyeku frustrated) of course I do,you just like asking the same question in different dimension, more over, I am a man now,don't call me a boy again, and don't call me stupid, because I am your future husband.

Chilo she smiled) shut up( she walked slowly at him staring into his eyes,Oyeku moved back as she approach him are gaze was not wavering,until Oyeku could feel his back collide against the tree).

She slipped her hands under his armpit and hugged him tightly, he could feel her breast resting on his chest, her firm breast, he could perceive her beautiful scent, he could feel her soft tender hands caressing his bare back,her eyes were still fixed on his.

He could feel it in her,he could perceive her desire, she wanted to mate,she wants him to make love to her,she was hot,he could sense it. Her hands traveled from his back and ended on his wide chest,she played with his nipples as she smiled at him.

Oyeku senses had eluded him,his body shook with passion,his head spun and his stomach twisted,his body is positively responding to chilo's gestures,he wants her too,unintentionally, his hands traveled to her hips as he squeezed them,he could hear her moan,he moaned too,his manhood was gradually rising, chilo could feel the pressure of his manhood and she smiled.

No!, I can't do this ", he said to himself, he had become scared right now, he had never made love to a lady before, the thought of doing it now made him afraid, no, he can't do it. Chilo could feel him back down.

Chilo grinning) are you afraid

Oyeku: ( he gently disengage himself from her) I can't do this now,this is wrong, I haven't pay your bride price,we aren't engaged, and moreover, I am still a boy.

Chilo: ( she laughed at his last statement) but,you called yourself a man, right now ( she said softly) but I never knew you are still a boy,okay,I will wait for you to be a man,and for you to pay my worth, good night( she turn around and walked towards her hut as her waist beads dance to the tune of her hips.
