Gabriel
I got to work a little bit late thanks to the new drugs prescribed to me by my doctor yesterday. I think the drug is very active since I over slept this morning. Taylor opened the door and I walked into the lobby ignoring anyone who greeted me. If I decide to respond to every greeting, then am going to spend all day in the lobby. I walked to my private elevator and it took me to the twenty forth floor.Just as I walked past the fax room, I heard her voice. 'Whats she doing here? Isn't she supposed to stay at home bed resting or something? I took a step forward to reprimand her for coming to work today but I stopped when I heard another voice"I haven't seen you after that day at the elevator?""I've been busy Alvera, you know... with work"Alvera? I can't remember that name. I guess that's what happens when you pay over two hundred staffs."Who you'd work under?" Alvera asked"Mr. Washington""You work for Gabriel!!!" She shriekedPersefoni chuckled "don't let him hear you calling him that""I'll call him anything just to work for him. Damn girl I understand the reason why you didn't come to find me during lunch that day. If I were you, I won't have time. I will be busy doing other things""Jeez Alvera calm down""Can we switch jobs... please" she pleadedPersefoni only laughed at her "I need to get these documents ready before Mr. Washington gets here""I know you find him hot, just admit it Persefoni... You think he's hot, that's why you are smiling right now"I stepped a little closer to hear her response"Am not answering that Alvera""Oh my gosh... You are blushing... You are!!""Okay fine... He's hot, I mean everyone with two pair of eyes or even one can see that... But he is also my boss... So stop making that face""Fine... Am not going to push it"I heard footsteps approaching "I have work to do Alvera, I'll see you at lunch"I entered the empty conference room adjacent to the fax room so she won't see me. The clicking of her heels kept fading until I couldn't hear them anymore. I opened the door and came out. I chuckled at myself at how stupid I look right now. Hiding from my own employee.I walked into my office and I saw Persefoni bent over trying to pick up something on the tiled floor with her full ass on display. Call me a pervert; I don't care because I stared at those ass. I felt cock grow inside my trouser. I cleared my throat to let her know am behind her and she jumped in fright."Mr. Washington, I didn't hear you come in"I cleared my dry throat "I need my schedule for the day"She nodded and I walked into my office while trying to adjust my boner. When was the last time I had an erection this quickly. Since that event three years ago, I have had my own share of vaginas but I have never had an erection without the lady in question touching me or doing some stuffs to wake me up. This is the first time in three years am erecting without any extra work from the lady. She didn't even go naked or try to seduce me... She was simply picking something on the floor and I was busy sporting an erection.The door opened and Gabriella walked in waving her phone at me "mom have been trying to speak with you but you aren't picking her call"
"Tell me something I don't already know" I mumbledShe sat down and dropped her legs on the other empty seat "Dad is turning 60 next week and they want you there"I tapped my pen on the desk "you already know the answer to that so why bother relaying the information?""Because I was hoping that one day, you'll change your mind"I resumed my typing "well today isn't that day. And a little advice Gabby, stop trying because it's not going to happen" "How long Gabriel? How long are you going to hold on to that pain? How long are you going to hold grudges against them huh? How long?"I closed my laptop with much force than needed "forever Gabby!!! For forever!!"She tried to hold in her tears but the rolled down her cheeks but I wasn't bothered. I've gone past the point of caring."They are sorry for what they did Gabriel, I can see it in their eyes, I can hear it in their voice Gabriel, they are sorry""Sorry can't fix anything right now can it Gabby? She's dead and gone, and their 'sorry' cannot bring her back, can it?"She reached out and held my hand but I pulled mine away."Gabriel...I..."They killed her Gabby!!! She's not here because of them!!! They fucking killed her" my voice roared. Am very sure Persefoni heard that"When you say it like that, you make it sound like they killed her"Is she fucking serious? "You know they did, don't fucking annoy me"She bit her lips to keep her tears in check "okay maybe, they had a hand in it but they are sorry Gabriel. Am tired of this broken family""And that's my fault? My fault that my parents killed my fiancé and unborn baby? Fuck you Gabby and fuck them""She was pregnant?" She whisperedI exhaled "get out of my office"She tried to touch my again "Gabr__""Get out!!!!" I shouted, the vein in my neck ready to pop outShe stood up with shaky legs and a face messed up with her makeup products. She looked at me again and she whispered 'am sorry' before leaving my office.I have this urge to shout, to break something, to release the pain and anger bubbling inside of me so I picked up one of my awards that decorated my shelve.I stared at it as if it is the reason for my pain and anger before I smashed it to the wall and watched it shred to pieces.
Persefoni quietly opened the door and walked in "are you okay sir?"I gave her my back "get out"Of course she couldn't obey simple instruction because I felt her hand on my shoulder. "You can talk to me"I took a deep breath to rein in my anger "am not in my best of moods Persefoni, I think it's best if you give me some time to gather myself""Look at me"What the fuck? "Did you just tell me what to do?""Please look at me Gabriel"I sunk in a deep breath, surprisingly I wasnt angry at her for calling me Gabriel so I did as she instructed."I know you are angry and in a lot of pain, please let me help you"I leaned on my desk "what do you want Persefoni?""I want to help you Gabriel""What? Are you offering me sex?"She smirked at me "is that what other ladies do? Offer sex when a man is down or angry?""I don't know, you tell me"She licked her lips "am not offering you sex Gabriel, but am going to offer you something""What's that?""Am going to temporarily put a stop to your pain"Okay she lost me "what?""That pain you feel when you think about her and your baby am going to put a stop to it temporarily"This sounds ridiculous "why temporarily? Why not permanently?"She tried to hold my hand but I pulled mine behind my back. "You are the only one who can grant yourself that, you are the only one who can put a stop to your pain permanently"I never wanted to let go of the pain because in some way, I also blame myself. If I hadn't brought her into my life, then everything would have been okay. Then she would have been alive but I wanted to see what Persefoni thinks she had to offer. She really thinks she can offer me peace? What is she? An angel?"Fine, let's see what you got"
She stretched out her palm and told me to do the same which I did; she placed hers on top of mine and closed her eyes, instructing me to do the same which I did.She began to murmur some words which I couldn't hear and within few minutes, she stopped murmuring and told me to open my eyes which I also did.She released my palm and stepped back a little bit."For few weeks, you will think about her and feel no pain or anger"And just like she said, I thought about her and I felt nothing. No pain, no anger or regrets. "Who are you Persefoni?"She just smiled at me.Persefoni Everywhere is so sunny and bright, I stepped away from the shield then all of a sudden, everywhere is cloudy, I guess am aren't the sun's favorite, I tried to walk back to the shield before the clouds starts weeping but I was unfortunate again. The cloud releases its tears on me but something felt strange. I stared down at my soaked self but instead of a colorless, odorless and tasteless liquid, I saw red. It was raining blood.I woke up drenched in sweat, I checked my alarm clock and it showed me that it is still two in the morning. I rubbed my eyes as I my mind went back to that dream. Blood? It was raining blood instead of rain? In the world of witches, it means something big is about to happen and when I say big, I don't mean the good big. I mean that something very bad is about to happen. Back in the coven, it actually rains blood like literally. Whenever it rains blood in the coven, witches of the high places get t
3 years agoI stared at her beautiful body as she changed into her dress. Most ladies would have been ashamed of her body but not this one standing before me."You've been staring at me for some time, should I be worried?"I removed the duvet covering the lower part of my body and my hard erection sprang out. "The only thing you should be worried about is this cock finding its way into your pussy"She laughed at me "are you always this crude?""Why are hiding your name from me?"She turned so I can help her zip up her gown but I pulled her into the bed with me. "Just your first name please"She kissed me on the nose "you know the rule, no name. And why are you so keen on finding out my name? It's not as if you are going to see me again"Yeah... one her annoying rules. No name, no second meeting just a one night stand, no dropping me
GabrielThis is the second time am visiting a hospital in a month. Imagine having lunch with your secretary and she starts bleeding through the nose, she excuses herself to go use the rest room only for you to find her on the floor in the toilet bleeding not through her nose but through a gash on her head.A soft mourn brought back my attention to the woman lying on the bed. She opened her eyes and those wide innocent eyes stared back at me."Thank you for deciding to join us again Persefoni"She smiled and tried to sit up but I stopped her. "Why don't you relax while I call the doctor?" I pressed the button and a nurse walked in few minutes later."She's awake; I think she should be examined by the doctor"The dark nurse nodded in agreement before she retreated to call the doctor.The doctor walked in together with the nurse."How are you doing Miss Persefoni? You seem to be visiting us regularly"
PersefoniI may not know who is after me. The ancestors? I've not betrayed anyone so they have the wrong person if the message is actually from them but that's not what is bothering me now. What is bothering me is that Gabriel offered that I stay with him, and the fact that I like the idea is really bothering me. I can't get attached to him, I can't even develop feelings for him because feelings make you do stupid things and stupid things lead to death. I can tell him to go ahead and get the cops involved, at the end of the day I'll just send them into a goose chase.I stood up from the bed and walked towards the window. The weather looks fair and bright which is a good sign to any normal human being but as a witch, we read the cloud, we look beyond bright weather and this one above me, this one that am currently staring at isn't good at all. Something bad is about to happen. I may not be able to pin point the exact thing about to happen, because I wasn't a
Three years ago2 weeks later"I found her!!!!!!" Gabriella shrieked, disturbing the peace of all those working close to my office."Gabriella... Keep your voice down, you are in an office environment for Christ sake"She covered her mouth with her hand and quietly sat down on the empty chair close to my desk. I stood up and closed the door to my office, I do not want my parents to accidentally hear me discussing about a girl and also how to stop her from getting married to Richard."What do you have for me?" I asked her as I took a seat closest to hers. She brought out a big brown envelope and dropped it on my desk."I have everything you need to know about Susan Blaire" with the way she answered, I can see that she is feeling very proud of herself.I tried to pick up the envelope but she slapped my hand. "You aren't taking that until you tell me what you have in stock for Richard"
Ten years agoI looked out through the window and watched them prepare for the big day. All streets were decorated, loud music filled the surroundings. I watched happy young ladies and men talking in groups, their faces portraying how happy they are and how they are looking forward to the great occasion.Today, all adult witches are being inaugurated into the witches family. Those who want to serve the Oracle begin that journey today. All those who are from twenty years upwards are going to be recognized as full grown witches in the coven."What are you doing there Persefoni? Shouldn't you be out there working with your mates?"I know that voice, I've grown to hate that voice. "I came up here to get some ribbons for decoration""I don't see you selecting ribbons, all I see is your lazy self looking out the window wishing for something that can never be yours"I maybe cursed from birth, but that doesn't mea
GabrielI came back that night to a quiet apartment, I walked to the kitchen to take a cup of water and I met Jennifer packing away some left overs into the refrigerator. She startled when she saw me nearly dropping the plate she was carrying."I didn't hear you come in sir" she rambled with a hand placed on her chest.I opened the fridge and took what I came for "you should pay closer attention to your environment""I'm sorry sir"I ignored her apology "where is Persefoni?""I think she's in her room" she replied nonchalantly, still packing away some leftoversPersefoni is not comfortable with her, and I will not allow her to make Persefoni more uncomfortable with her attitude. "What do you mean by you think? Haven't you been with her in this house since?" I closed in on her, my height towering over her "if you want to keep your job, you'll have to drop this fucking attitude"She
Three years agoIt took me more than two hours to get Gabriella to my house thanks to her constant request to throw up. I dumped her on the bed. Removing her shoes and clothes, I left her in just her under wears. I also dropped an empty bucket on the floor just In case she wants to throw up. I don't want her messing up my floor. Making sure that she's comfortable to an extent, I closed the door. Picking up my car key, I drove back to the club with just one intention which is to see Susan and if possible bring her back home with me.I arrived at the club faster than I did when I was taking Gabriella home. I tipped the bouncer and walked into the club. Looking at the exact pole where I saw my Susan shaking her assets, I found it empty.Grabbing one of the feather girls walking around, I dragged her closer to me so she can hear me amidst the music."I need a VIP booth"She eyed me seductively and indicated that I follow her. I fo
