*Finally got to hold you in my arms*

Deep in shock Jezreel sat down his mind trying to assimilate the matter, he looked at the writhing girl in his arms, The whole family was present in the living room, Her Mother had been called since she was in the city for a party, they all sat in the living room deep in thought, thinking of the way out of the situation

They had all heard the Doctor explain the effects of the drug she was injected with besides leaving her in that state was going to be to the detriment of her health.

His mom had confessed what she knew about the incident, it was only a matter of time before the teacher and his cohorts were arrested, it seems they had no idea that the necklace also recorded their voice.

Mrs. Adams had only wanted them to help wise her up but she changed her mind when she started hearing drugs and all that. It was a simple punishment she had planned but it turned out to have gone very extreme.

Looking over her in worry, He reminisced on the solution the doctor had given them. They had to assuage the effects of the drug, that was the only way or leave her to slowly degenerate into a burden to them. His Dad had walked out of the hospital frustrated; it was true they were a Christian family but could they just watch her suffer like that yet it was going to be pure fornication they will all watch her perform just to save her life.

"I don't know what to say to this issue" Mr Adams declared watching the way Adanna was touching Jezreel all over in her search for relieve

Mama Nnena who had been waiting for that word since morning sat up, drew her hands together and laid out her opinion, she planned on taking Adanna back to the village, the Igwe of their community still occasionally expressed his interest in marrying Adanna when she finishes her schooling, Now that this had happen perhaps it was high time she answered the king's call, she expressed her appreciation in regards to the care they had given Adanna over time.

"I will be leaving for the village tomorrow since the doctor said that we should not delay."

Mrs Adams feeling extremely guilty spoke up "we are really sorry such a thing happened, I guess I should have been stricter and not let her go for the party. We are really sorry" she stood up, went to meet Mama Nnena and held her hands

"There is no need for that, I sincerely appreciate your help over the years at least thanks to you and your family, I and my children are no longer starving and I thank the God that made me know Mama Ola. I will send a message to the Igwe to inform him of my coming to the village with Adanna so that his men will receive her immediately upon getting to the village" she stood up to go, Mrs Adams in tow helping her to the door.

Jezreel sat in a daze at the conclusion of Adanna's mother. And to his utter amazement his parents agreed to it and raised up no objection. Over his Dead body Adanna was marrying someone else, He had not been purposely taking care of her all this years to have someone steal all his years of hard work. He loves her even more than she could ever comprehend. His mom was aware of this but how she could accept her mother's verdict without objecting was painful.

He would not allow her marry any Chief, she belonged to him and they were taking her nowhere.

He gently placed her on the sofa and snatched himself from her strong hold, he went to the door to meet the two women, and he stopped them at the door, closed the door and put the key in his pocket

"What are you doing?" Mrs Adams asked knowing what fully well what was making him behave like that, she had only pretended to go along with the plan in order to make him confess his love for Adanna in front of everyone. She had wanted to suggest it what she knew he was about to do but barely held herself in. she really needed to see what her son was capable of doing. To see to what extent he was willing to fight just to keep her beside him.
