 Battered and Broken.
Two words to describe Amanda.

Born with a silver spoon and raised with a golden cup, Amanda had the perfect life on papers.

But behind those perfectly adorned make ups and overly expensive accessories was a woman battered and broken, left with nothing but bitterness and pain. Hot tempered and rude was a mild way to put it, independent and strong another.

Determined not to make the same mistake as her mother, Amanda will do anything but get married, but when she's presented with a marriage agreement by the one man she hates the most, she will do anything to thwart it.

And what Amanda wants she gets, unless what she wants are two opposing things...

               ***

Henry's life was perfect until his uncaring father decided to care.

Familiar with the opposite gender, he has always loved demure, submissive, innocent and easy to bend women.

But being presented with a marriage proposal, to a woman who he knew was far from what he wanted, he was determined to go against it.

But the chocolate eyed, easily irked beauty like a magnet draws him in.

Drawn into the family with enough trouble to put Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba to shame and enough hatred that surpass the three, Henry was just about to realize that money may not entirely be the solution.

With death threats looming, and an obsessed psycho on the loose, the story is about to get more intense.
With everybody a suspect Henry will just have to wonder, what exactly has he gotten himself into.

     ***

"Is that so? He doesn't seem to think so, he looks like one who will want to keep you for himself, but unfortunately he's late, cause we are already engaged."

"Don't be too certain" she retorted, "if everything goes as plan we will soon go our separate ways" his hold on her tightened,  she couldn't help her body's reactions to that. 

"Maybe till then" he whispered, his voice hoarse "but as of now, and as long as this engagement is on. You.Are.Mine."

48 parts Ongoing Mature
Muhammad thought of Madeenah as a child, younger than his baby sister, although way more mature. She seemed to have created a bond with his daughter and that was all that came to his mind about her. Not her smooth caramel skin, or her captivating light brown eyes and neither did her sweet voice do it for him. Madeenah thought of Ya Muhammad as an arrogant and stoic person but a really good father. In truth she was terrified of him. She hated the way he would look at her, as though she was less important than him. She hated the way he never spoke unless he needed to. She hated the way his voice washed over her, making her shiver. She hated his height and how it made him tower over her small frame. She hated him but she just couldn't stop thinking about him. So what happens when the two end up being brought together by an unusual arrangement . He's older, she's younger. He has a daughter and she has barely begun life. Will he let go of the past and try to find happiness or will he drag her down with him? --------------------------------------- "Let's get married." He says with such a straight face that I feel stupid as I chuckle. "What did you just say?" I ask in disbelief. "You heard me Madeenah." He says in a gravelly tone. "Why would you want to marry me?" I shake my head. "You don't like me." "I like you well enough to be married to you." His broad shoulders shrug in his familiar black suit. What is going on with him? And what have I gotten myself into?

"What the heck is this Ibrahim??!" The man looked up at her bored and then lowered his gaze to that envelope. A small smirk formed on his face and he said, "I thought you could read English, Anaisha!" He scoffed and continued his work on the laptop.

Till yesterday they were good. Atleast she thought that everything was good between them then why suddenly the first thing she saw this morning is this official letter from court?! "Yes I did! So?" He said still looking at his laptop without paying any attention at her! "And why? I never did anything like what you accused me of!" She shouted loudly but her voice broke a little by the end of her line. She was on the verge of breaking down completely.

I AM YOUR GIRLFRIEND FOR GOD'S SAKE!! " She broke down in tears as she finally said this line. Yes. Anaisha and Ibrahim were in a relationship from last 2 years. They have known each other from last 5 years. They are in a live-in relationship. "Well You 'were' my girlfriend because from now you're not. And also about why I did this!?" He got up from his chair and took steps towards Anaisha. She didn't back off. "You think I loved you? What a fool! Do you really think that I WOULD LOVE THE PERSON WHO IS THE DAUGHTER OF MY PARENTS' MURDERER??!" He shouted loudly and gripped her arms tightly. She flinched at his words and she was shocked at what he was saying.

MAD WOMAN by catherinethewilliams

My sister has always attracted the wrong crowd who didn't hesitate to take advantage of her meek heart. Right from small, Zikora's naïvety always made me fight with every single one of her 'friends'. I have never been comfortable with any of her so-called friendships. Not even the one she was in at the moment with her new roommate. Funny enough was that I actually liked their relationship. It was pure, true, and more of a sisterhood. For the first time in history, Zikora made a true friend. I inwardly approved of the friendship, when the girl in question, didn't think twice in lunging a frying pan at my little sister's ex-boyfriend. And I know as you're reading this, you may ask yourself, what was my issue then? My issue wasn't with the friendship, but the babe herself. Her appearance reminded me of that Disney princess that had the complexion of a vampire. Snow White, very innocent looking creature. But that girl was the definition of a werey in disguise. Chineke ekwela! And I know you've already started judging me as the problematic character already. I am not problematic, she is. You may begin to think that okay I'm probably overreacting. Oga, Aunty, I am not overreacting. On the first day of meeting her, this babe carried her old fashioned okrika shoe that looked like it suffered for nineteen years, and threw it at the glass of my car while I was driving. Aunty, ha si na hel zipụ gị, ma-ọbụ site n'oké ọhịa ọjọọ dị n'obodo m? {did they send you from hell, or from the evil forest in my village?} That one is her business sha. She should just carry her small bum bum and stay on her own, because she's really getting on my nerves. I don't blame her, because she knows she's fine. That's why she's doing all this bullshit. But all that I know is using the word 'mad' in a sentence, I would say; Biboere Mirabel Madagascar is a MAD WOMAN. Come and fight me.
