Chapter 127 - A One Night Stand



Tiana stepped out of the car and her eyes glanced at the beautiful bungalow in front of her;

Even if she worked her ass out for twenty years on end, she wouldn\'t still afford such beauty. But it was hers now, all served on a platter; she was lucky, wasn\'t she?

Not only did she get a house, she had over five million dollars in her account, wow! How did she become a millionaire overnight?

Tiana forced a smile to her cheeks, but she knew how much it ripped her apart to watch the sight in front of her.

\'\'Ma\'am, this is the key to the gates; the other keys are on each door.\'\'

A guard walked to her and handed her a key, and Tiana\'s lips thinned; her hands fisted for a moment before she lifted it and took the key from him;

\'\'If there\'s nothing else, we\'ll be on our way.\'\'

He said and bowed a little before turning around.

Tiana felt a great wave of loneliness wash through her as they drove away. She had never felt this lonely in her life before, not even when her parents died, not even when she was locked up in the dark room. The pain she was feeling at that moment was miserably excruciating.

She had vowed never to cry for him again, but at that moment, she couldn\'t stop the tears from falling from her eyes, she blinked severally, biting on her lower lip to hold it in, but it poured out without control and in the next second, she was down, wailing like a baby.

Tiana squatted in front of her gate and cried her eyes out; it hurt so much…

She never believed someone could be able to lie without batting an eyelid, with no atom of remorse. She must give it to him; he was a good actor.

She wanted to meet him and ask him to the face, what she did so wrong; it wasn\'t for the debt, because Nicklaus was way above it, it could only mean that he truly derived joy from inflicting pain, and her doom began the day she tried to deny him that pleasure.

She wanted to watch him look her in the eyes and tell her it had all been a lie, that she was some delusional woman who thought she could win the heart of a cold-blooded monster;

But of what use was it? If he said that to her, it would hurt more than it did already; and the last thing she wanted now was to watch him laugh at her miserable state again.

Why was her fate this way?

First it was a childhood crush, who left her at the slightest provocation, and without even batting an eyelid, got a new girlfriend in a few weeks, next was a heartless CEO, who swept her off her feet, showered her with love only for her to realize that she had been living a mirage?

Someone would have thought with such a pretty face, she would have a great luck, but was an irony; her luck was such a piece of shit!

 Tiana didn\'t know how long she squatted, but by the time she stood up, her feet had pins and needles all over. She gritted her teeth as she dragged herself to the gate and opened it; pulling herself towards the building.

As the guard had said, there was a key on the front door, Tiana just unlocked and pushed the door open. She stopped by the entrance as her eyes took in the house\'s beauty.

High vaulted ceiling, sofas, a large television, glass tables, dining and flower vases. She heaved a sigh; everything in here must have cost a fortune, but it was nothing to them.

Her eyes fell to her hands;

Truthfully, she didn\'t want to accept the house or money. She could have easily gone back to her little crib in Atwater, but she wanted to let him know that he wasn\'t the only one playing mind games. If he could throw away everything they\'ve shared in a blink of an eye, then she wouldn\'t think twice about taking the house.

To someone as wicked and soulless, it wouldn\'t do much, but Tiana was sure it would hurt his pride.

She dragged herself in and slumped on a couch;

That was it; she had given up on love. It was a beautiful thing if felt with the right person, but at that moment, she knew her right person was not in this world.

She shut her eyes tightly as tears fell through her lids, dropping on the cushion;

Against her will, she replayed every scene they\'ve shared;

How he called her \'beautiful\' like she was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen, how he made her feel so special…

Tiana clutched her palms so tight that she could feel her nails digging into her skin;

How couldn\'t she have seen any signs?

Tiana thought, smiling at her miserable state.

She must have been a very interesting plaything for him to play along so well. Tiana raised her hand to wipe her tears, but a fresh one replaced the old one immediately;

And to think… to think she had given him her first night…

Tiana covered her lips with her hands as fresh pain coursed through her.

If he was some random guy that came around, he would have been a little easier to forget, but no, he was her first.

Her very first; there was no forgetting this pain.

At that moment, she wished he had left her locked up in the basement, feeding her once in two days, she would have preferred it than to be in this state.

All the time they spent together, came rushing back to her;

He had told her he loved her…

God, how could he say it so passionately when he didn\'t even mean a word of it?

Was she just a one-night stand?

The thought of it sent bile rushing to Tiana\'s mouth as she remembered how he had made love to her the previous night.

Her stomach churned as she remembered how he had kissed every inch of her; she swallowed, trying to push back the pain, but in the next second, she was running towards the sink in the dining room.
