Chapter Twenty - Five : "Revenge Is Best Served Cold " (2/2)
”Well that's good to know, unlike someone who hides under the shadow of their parents, what a chicken! ”I retorted and Kim banged her hands on the table
”You! ”She roared, anger evident in her eyes. Atleast its good to know that someone aside from her has grown an acidic tongue
”How's Nik's bed? ” Kim asked out of nowhere startling me. For sure I'll give her the credit, she knows how to attack but unlike her, I attack where it hurts the most.
”For sure good” I smiled, my eyes full of mischief ”His bed's so damn comfortable and the guy sure knows how to arouse a woman to estacy and I bet you want a taste judging from the fact you satisfy yourself with sex toys because your husband has minor problems with his... ” I trailed off purposely looking at her lower region suggestively.
Kim's face was red and she would have bounced on me had the waiter not arrived with her request. She composed herself and flashed the waiter a smile that didn't quite reach her eyes as he arranged her food on the table.
Once done she tipped the waiter as he bowed with a smile and left. Anyone not knowing her true character would think she was indeed an angel sent from heaven.
”I don't care about your relationship with Nik but you should consider my request ”
”You can get that answered in hell” I spat not believing the fact I came from the same womb as her.
”Don't delude yourself, this is for our family's welfare ”
”Family? ” I scoffed. Then suddenly my expression changed as I glared at her with full intensity ” You are never and will never be a part of this family .That should ring a bell ” I said, my grim voice reminding her the exact words she said to me before I left four years ago
”I never thought you're one to hold grudges ” she grimaced
”I wasn't ” I replied nonchalantly ”Until life taught me a bitter lesson and what did I learn ?” I kept her guessing for a while before replying coldly
”Revenge is best served cold”
I would've continued bickering with her had I not felt a little uncomfortable. I suddenly felt hot inside out of nowhere puzzling me, I never eat anything contradicting to get such result other than a glass of water.
Camouflaging the sudden discomfort, I picked up my clutchpurse ready to leave and knowing it was easier facing this new unwelcomed development at home than here.
Just as I stood , I decided to make an epic leave. I walked towards Kim, bent and whispered in her ears
”Just so you know, I quit from Nik's residence about a week ago, so make sure you investigate thoroughly with your sources the next time you're about to ask for a favor ”
That said, I left with a smug smile on my face.It felt good knowing I had the upper hand this time. I chuckled remembering the look on her face.
As if the universe were on my side, a taxi stopped right in front of me as soon as I stepped outside almost like it's being waiting for me.
”Please drive to... ” I had barely finished my statement when a shadow beside me moved and a small clothe was pressed against my nose.
Startled and roused , I struggled against this unknown attacker only to find out I wasn't half a match for him.
I knew the rag was drugged so I tried not to inhale but my lungs couldn't accommodate this sudden change so I was forced to breathe. Suddenly the world around me became dark.

I knew it has being a while, I could feel it. I couldn't move, my body felt heavy and paralyzed. My insides were burning, it was as if I was set on fire.
I writhed around on something soft and I knew instinctively it was a bed. A bed? I never remembered getting home, Infact I couldn't remember anything other than to satisfy this burning ache in my lower region.
I felt a sudden weight on me and knew someone was on me and knew instinctively it was a man judging from his deep guttural voice. He was saying something about satisfying me.
I struggled but it was a half struggle. A part of me wanted this man gone but the other me craved his touch as if he had the cure to this sudden madness.
I felt goosebumps all over my body when his hands went down my arms and I realized something. My shoulders were bare and this thing I was wearing was skimpy and silky.
I forced my eyes opened at once, I wasn't in my clothes. Where was my clothes? I was in a fucking nightgown!
”Don't worry babe, I'll make you feel good tonight” I heard that same guttural voice say and nibble on my earlobe and all I could feel was disgust.
I tried shouting but all that could come out was a whimper, when did my voice become this way.
”Pl-please ” I pleaded but he won't let go instead his grip tightened as he assured me of making me feel good
”Someone help me” I cried out but there was no one. I felt nauseated by each passing minutes his hands worked down my body.
”Help me!!! ”I prayed , struggling for control against my body's wishes, I couldn't succumb just yet. I still had to fight.
Out of nowhere, I heard a loud bang and saw a sudden light. I smiled, so prayers were still being answered.
