Can a boy and a girl ever be best friends without having any secret romantic feelings towards each other? Bryan Ugwuoke and Jessy Black are childhood best friends who were secretly in love with each other. What happens when a false article about them making out almost destroys their friendship? Will they finally spill their secret love for each other, or will temptation spill it for them? * * * * * Jessy was enjoying the fact that Bryan couldn't seem to remove his eyes from her cleavage, and she smiled at that. If this was what they called seduction, she was up for it this night. It was as if seeing Bryan again and sitting too close to him while he fed his eyes, gave her confidence, that he maybe, just maybe liked her as a guy liked a girl. But did he? "You like what you see?" She asked him trying so hard to sound seductive. "Huh?" Bryan asked confused, trying to divert his eyes away from his best friend's bosom, but his eyes didn't seem to obey. "You like what you see?" She asked again, this time scooting closer to him. It was as if the drink gave her the confidence that she needed. "Ummmm... Would it be weird if I said yes?" He asked, "I shouldn't like seeing my best friend's bosom, I shouldn't." He muttered to himself. "But you like it, huh?" She didn't know if it was the alcohol acting against her sober self, but she found herself placing her lips on his. His lips were so soft, and succulent and enticing, she thought, then she stopped, and looked at him, waiting for him to say something, anything to avoid feeling embarrassed for kissing her best friend of nine years! * Follow up on the rollercoaster romance story of Bryan and Jessy and how they were able to overcome the challenges the articles brought to them.

"What is your name? " he enquired with a staid expression. Obi's eyes roamed around still trying to ascertain the safety of their current surrounding. Her lips were still quivering out of shock and her breathing distorted. "Obiukwu" She finally let out still battling with unsteady breathing. He adjusted the cuff of his pristine white shirt and helped her up. "For a girl with a boy's name you certainly do not think like one. Usually when a female dog comes after you, you don't run towards her young puppies, you run far away from them". She adjusted her pleated skirts which had been torn while she ran frantically from the enraged beast. This boy's words were rather insulting but she swallowed any form of insult that would have ensued especially from his reminder of the stereotype that had been carved out from her name . A simple act of gratitude, for he had been her savior. Was he not a dunce for thinking that way?. She knew a lot of moronic boys and her cousin Chukwudi was the ideal example. The dog had run at the sound of his command. She walked away from him slowly hoping to see Sandra somewhere close. "Hey! You owe me a thank you and something else". She ignored him and kept walking.She hated dogs and arrogant rich boys! "My name is Obiefune!" Obiukwu stopped for a brief moment and yelled back at him "thank you! ".

Jadelola Adebayo. She wasn't royalty. She wasn't billionaire-born. But she was brilliant with her hands, her designs slipping across Lagos society like silk - literally. She told herself it was only business. She told herself she would present the sketches, bow politely, and leave. But destiny has a way of rearranging careful plans. Because somewhere in the palace, descending from his own convoy with the slow arrogance of a man who had never been denied, was Prince Damilola Damien Adediran. And when his path collided with hers, Lagos itself seemed to pause. The city would remember their story. The blogs would feast on whispers of it. But in this moment, the world had no idea. All that existed was the dangerous pull between a woman who thought herself safe within marriage, and the Prince who had already chosen her - the one he would name Arike. She scowled, though her pulse betrayed her. "I told you before. I'm married. I don't belong to you." He stepped closer, closing the distance in unhurried strides until her back grazed the wall. His hand lifted, not touching, just hovering by her cheek. "Say it again, Arike. Louder this time. Maybe then I'll believe you." Her breath caught. "You're shameless." "Mm." His grin widened, vulgar and beautiful all at once. "Shameless enough to imagine what your lips taste like when you're angry. Shameless enough to want to hear you gasp my name the way you're gasping now." "Stop." Her palms pressed against his chest. Firm muscle beneath the fabric. Too warm. Too alive. He groaned, deep and rough, the sound vibrating under her touch. "Every time you touch me, Arike, you make it worse. Do you know that?" "I'm not-" she stammered, but he cut her off, voice dipping lower. "You think I don't see the way your pulse jumps when I look at you? The way you bite your lip when you're trying to hold back? Don't lie to me, ìfé mi. Your body betrays you

"You said you want to help me destroy my arranged Marriage. I want you to sign so that when you meet my crazy family, you won't be able to easily abandon me," he smirked. "Your family can't be that bad!" His shoulders shook as he let out barks of laughter. "Meet them first!" "So what's the time duration of our relationship?" "We will date for two months. You said you want to spice your life with fun. I will help you with that" "This relationship will be easy. No feelings attached. It will be easy for me to break up with you," I mused and rubbed my chin. "So will you sign?"
