[Story] Attitude meets Arrogance – S01 E57

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 57

Ciara’s POV

Finally I landed on another contract. Since I was done working for Jaxon, I was jobless and depended on Jordan for upkeep. It’s not like he minded.

Jordan had been acting weird for the past one month. He rarely spoke to me or even eat at home.

He always came home late and left very early. It felt lonely but this was the price I had to pay.

There are times he would sleep in the office, on the sofa but rarely beside me…It was like he was avoiding me…

I wanted to tell him the good news so I woke up at 4am and waited for him to come take a shower since he slept in the office…

When he walked in, I pretended to be asleep so that he wouldn’t leave…

“Jordan, I finally got another job…” I said calmly when he was getting into the bathroom.

“That’s good, atleast you won’t have to stay home like a housewife anymore…” He replied dryly not looking at me…

“Are you not going to ask me where or with who????” I retorted and he just remained quiet…

“I will tell you even if you don’t wanna hear

. Isikote, a Zambia tycoon son who recently moved to the country…And he needs a designer and a stylist so I will start today….” I said excitedly and he just slammed the door into the bathroom.

Why did I bother telling him anyway??? He said he won’t act like my husband. Ciara, why did you have to open your big mouth now you feel humiliated….

I got back to bed and woke up around 9 am to get ready..Since it was my first day, I had to look sassy.

I wore a black pencil skirt, a white blouse and a pair of nude stilettos

. A little touch of makeup and I was good to go…

Brian sent me the location pin on my way there and in a few minutes I was there. He was such a darling to always have my back…

I rang the bell expecting a handsome man in an Italian suit, well built but no he was a thin, tall guy in his bathrobe with a glass of whisky on his hand. He was handsome though but not like Jordan.

Did I just say Jordan??? Truth be told, he is handsome….

“You must be Ciara, right???” I nodded and outstretched my hand for a handshake only for him to hug me, “Handshakes are for friends and we are more than friends…”

That felt weird, we just met.

“Please come in, I am sorry my place is messy…”

There was beer cans lying at the table, two empty bottles of whisky, some cigarettes and a bottle of water.

“I could come another time or even tomorrow???” I suggested but he took my hand and walked me to the sofa, “Relax…” He whispered seductively…

“Can we start then????” I asked and he just smiled mischievously. Now I was feeling uncomfortable…

“Why are you in a hurry???? Has someone ever told you, you have beautiful long legs???” He placed his hand on my thigh and I pushed it away…

“You have a ring, are you married??? Does your husband treat you right???”

“Yes I am married and he treats me right. I think I should get going…” I stood to go only to be pulled back to the sofa.

“Sit!!!!” He said almost in a loud voice that I flinched then he smiled like nothing happened, “I have heard you are among the best young designers in Kenya. I love to work with young and beautiful…” He c*ressed my face making me pull back…

“Isikote, I will get going now…” I stammered but he ignored me and moved closer and closer ensuring there was no distance between us…

“What are you doing????”

“I am just touching you, it won’t hurt. Trust me I am gentle. Or do you love it rough???” He moved his face closer to mine and I am sure I almost peed on myself.

Dear God, if you get me out of this mess I promise to try and be nice..Don’t let him molest me please…

It seems luck wasn’t on my side, he tried to kiss me but I pushed him back and slapped him so hard…

“Don’t you ever do that to me again!!!” I warned and walked to the door only to find it locked…

I heard him laugh evilly behind me and knew that was the end of me…

It was time to pay for my sins…

“I always get what I want. I want you, I get you. You can’t take me anywhere… So are you going to cooperate or we do it my way???” He held my hair and I froze…

I wish I wore a wig today…

“It was a bad mistake to even think of slapping me…” He threatened and I couldn’t help but to start crying,”I am sorry Isikote, don’t hurt me. I am a married woman, all I wanted is a job…”

I tried talking sense into him but he didn’t care..

“I just want you…” He turned me around to face him and reached out for my phone in my purse…The moment my phone landed and scattered on the floor I knew it was the beginning of the end…

He threw me across the room and when I tried moving I couldn’t.

. I thought I would crawl but he lifted me with my hair causing pain to flow through me..

“Just tell me what you want. My husband is very rich, he could get everything for you…”

“I am a tycoon’s son and the only thing I do is party and have s*x. Too bad gorgeous, you walked in when I was horny…” There was this disgusting smirk on his face…

I was shaking and sobbing but that didn’t move him.

There was a vase beside me, I tried picking it but it ended up breaking beside me…

“The designer is trying to be smart with me!!!” He snarled between his closed teeth before pushing me to the floor where I fell on the broken pieces and groaned in pain.

He then dragged slightly from the broken glasses and sat on top of me…He tore my blouse and my body shut down..

“You like it rough…”

His white knuckles gripped my neck and he begun kissing me…I tried pushing him away only to receive slaps and punches.

That’s was it. It’s over..

I surrendered my fate to the heavens and shut my eyes tight when I heard the thud of something…

I slightly opened my eyes only to see Jordan standing there…

“How dare you mess with my woman????” He thundered…

Jordan’s POV

I was happy my girl was getting back to work, I know she was distressed with just staying at home but now she can do what she loves most..

I am glad she updated me about her work today even though I acted I didn’t care, I was still happy…

I was from a board meeting when I found Sebastian comfortably seating on my seat.

“Young man, nobody sits on that seat apart from me!!!” I teased but instead of even smiling he looked bothered..

“What’s wrong Seb????” I asked in a worried tone…

“I need your help Jordan…”

“Talk to me???”

“I need you to help me talk to the commissioner. There is this new Zambia man who r*ped one of my…..”

Wait is my wife not going to work for a Zambian man. What if is the same man???

“Is the name of the man Isikote????” I confirmed and he nodded,”How do you know???”

“Seb, my wife is in trouble…She was going to work for him today. Let me call home and find out if she already left…”

I felt every muscle tense and my hands begun to open and close with each quickening breath…

Please God, protect my wife…

When Caro told me she left like an hour ago, I lost it.

“Seb, do you know his address????” I held him by the collar…

“Yes, let me forward it to you…”

“Seb go and come with the police. I need to go get my wife before that bastard does anything to her…”

I ran like a fool from my office to the parking lot that my employees were wondering what was the problem…

I drove like a mad person and when I arrived there I didn’t have time to think.

I just broke the door and got in like nothing happened only to see him on top of her while she was so bloody…

“How dare you mess with my woman???” I thundered and he froze…

Her face was drowning in tears, eyes blood shot.. In minutes I ripped him off her and threw him across…Anger was flowing in my veins. Nobody messes with my woman, I was going to kill somebody….

She just lied there looking helpless….

I brought a fist to his face snapping his nose into a grotesquerie…Another swift punch on his mouth and crushed down his tongue soaked in the taste of blood…He was receiving endless punches when I heard Sebastian’s voice behind me,”Jordan, that’s enough. The police are here…”

He struggled to raise his face spitting blood only to get a simple sidekick on his stomach landing him on the floor again…

I wanted to beat him more but the Sebastian held me back…

I ran to her and there was dried blood all over her body…Her blouse was torn exposing her chest…

She didn’t talk or even move..Tears just rolled down her cheeks uncontrollable..

I took her in my arms and carried her to the car.

“Seb call anyone at home and tell them to have the doctor ready at home…”

I gently placed her on the passenger’s seat and covered her with my coat..

Seeing her in that state broke me, if only I investigated about that a*shole this wouldn’t have happened…

I took out my handkerchief and wiped away her tears but they weren’t ready to stop flowing like a river…

When we got home, I took her the bridal style from the car into the house where I found everyone waiting for us in the hallway…

“What happened???” They all asked behind me…

“Where the hell is the doctor???” I thundered…

“He is in the living room…”Jaxon answered.

“Tell him to come to our room now before I lose my wife!!!” I ordered….

When we got to our room, I lied her gently on the bed waiting for the doctor…

If something happens to her, I will never forgive myself…
