Ehi stood still as rage filled her,Osanobwa (God) has granted her a second chance and she would damn her soul to the very depths of hell if she didn't use it right. "I am ready",she stated.

Here comes the celebrant of this glorious night,the butler announced, "LADY EHI MCNIGHTTON OF WILLSHIRE,niece and heir to the DUCHESS OF WILLSHIRE!!!" The giant doors opened wide,bright lights seeping from the ball room,shining directly on her as everyone stood still.

Captured from a small village in the times when slave trade thrived in Africa.Enslaved in a new country,Ehi has to learn love and survival in the most gruesome way. When she didn't think life could throw anymore surprises,a certain Duke crossed her path. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ NOTE~~~~~~~~~~ A little history never hurts anyone right?? This book is 70% fiction,the other 30% are well known historical events and facts. I love how i was able to put together everything I love about literature into this book. I love the historical feel it has to it,the romance and how shows a glimpse of my beautiful maternal culture. It's mostly about the history on the slavery of the Edo people in Nigeria during the colonial times. Basically this book (Ehi),is a fictional representation of slavery during the colonial times. I really hope you enjoy and learn alot about my maternal history from it💜. *************** This book is currently undergoing editing. I take full responsibility for all the errors. This book is how i imagine things were for a young girl during those times. It will be nothing like you expected.So,please keep reading and join me on this incredible journey. ⚠️Most of the contents of this book are not facts or actual past events,it is 70% fiction
At War  by michelle18uzoma

"Obanma if you keep vibrating like a car engine, neither of us would get good sleep. I can feel the bed shaking from way over there" He gestured at the edge of the bed where lay he before. Her mouth couldn't form any words in her own defense. "I've been battling with pneumonia I would have left the bed for you. Those tiles might just worsen my case. Besides there's enough space to fit two more people on this bed." She only nodded still staring at him and recoiling inwardly at the proximity between them. Adaugo had once told her that being on the same bed with a man could make her pregnant. Oh Biology her saviour! " I am not that kind of man, I offered you a place to rest for the night and that you shall get. Sleeping with your Jean trousers on, one foot in and foot out of the bed, huddling at the edge which is quite close to the door, wouldn't really save you if I wanted something else. I am a man, I am stronger and faster. So please relax, stop shaking and go to sleep. I have a very busy schedule tomorrow and just like you, I can't sleep unless my surrounding is suitable for sleeping " How did he know all that? Was he a mind reader too? She nodded again then slowly relaxed on the bed, still very much awake. Sleeping was not really what one did in enemy camp. He smiled, gently rolling over to his side to really have a look at her. She was truly very beautiful and innocent. He knew deep down that she could escape if she wanted to, he was no superman and she would definitely elude him. His hands itched to caress and hold her, that feeling was not alien, he had always felt protective of the girl. Onyedikachi simply turned to the other side of the bed with a smile on his face and very familiar words in his heart as exhaustion drove him to sleep. Smart girl! *** Two families living peacefully as neighbors till an unfortunate event turns them into arch enemies. How long will their war last when love decides to make their children mediators?
