PHOEBE'S POV
“Why do you have to kill me that way? Isn’t it a bit stressful?” I asked and she turn to glare at me.
“Shut up you b---h”she yells as she retrieves a gun and points it at me.
“Look Selene even if l die today my ghost will come back and haunt you, in the day and in the middle of the night, l will be your greatest night mare, you will see me everywhere until you can’t take it anymore and then you run mad” l said with a smirk and she slaps me again.
Though the slap hurt but l won’t show her any glint of pain or fear.
She was obviously afraid and annoyed by my unafraid expression.
She put down the gun slowly and slapped me again and again.
“Are you satisfied now?” I asked coldly.
“No! It doesn’t satisfy me that is why l want to kill you to satisfy myself” she says and aimed the gun at me.
Suddenly the door burst open and three huge men aimed their guns at Selene.
I was confused, what’s going on? This are selene’s men and one of them abducted me yesterday, why are they aiming their guns at her?
“Sparrow! Scorpion! Draco, What are you guys doing?” She snarled.
She was surprised by her men sudden action towards her.
“Take away your guns from me” she commanded but they didn’t bulge.
“Put your gun down and freeze.”
A middle aged man suddenly popped out of nowhere.
He aimed his gun at Selene and she is surprised, am even more surprised.
She glared at him.
“Who are you?” She asked.
“Police officer Kelly knight”he raises his ID to her face.
“Now put your gun down” he commanded.
But Selene refused to surrender, she looked at the huge men and yelled.
“What are you doing? Shoot him now”she commanded but they ignored her and gave the officer a meaningful look.
Now l understand, she was tricked, it’s obvious the men knew the police officer.
“You tricked me” Selene yelled at the men.
“Put your gun down or we shoot you” they said.
"No! She yelled.
“You tricked me," she said to the men whose guns were aimed at her.
“Put down your guns you have been surrounded” a voice echoed through the place.
“Put down your gun miss” the officer said again but she still aimed the gun at me.
I just watched in awe at the drama unfolding in front of me.
I gasped in surprise as Mr Gray, Mr Robin, Daisy and one other person l don’t know came in with numerous police officers.
"Phoebe! Daisy squealed on seeing me.
I tried to move.
“If you move l shoot you” Selene yells at me.
She wasn’t going to give up that easily when she was surrounded with numerous guns aimed at her.
Daisy wanted to rush to me but Mr Robin held her in place.
“What are you all doing, shoot out her f-----g brain” Mr Gray yells at the police officers.
“We can’t be reckless Mr Gray, a gun is still being aimed at miss Phoebe.” They replied.
“Who are you?” Mr Gray asked the police officer Kelly knight.
“Am a police officer l was sent here to rescue Miss Phoebe.”
“Who sent you?” Mr Gray asked.
“Am sorry Mr Gray but am not in a position to tell you.”
“Since you are here , we will leave. Let’s go” he told selene’s men.
Selene’s gun was still aimed at me.
“Put the gun down miss Li” Mr Gray said.
He was getting pissed already.
“You can shoot me l don’t care, l would rather die than go to jail. But l will bring her along to hell with me, if l die she dies” she said and her hold on the gun tightened.
“You all are bunch of fools, why can’t you shoot her and end this Drama", Mr Gray yells at the police men.
Daisy freed herself from Mr Robin grip and rushed to meet me.
“Phoebe, are you okay?” She asked not minding the gun being aimed at me.
“Am fine Daisy please leave here.”
“Don’t be afraid, there are many officers here, what do you think will happen to her when she attempts to pull the trigger.” She said.
“Either ways it still not safe please leave” l told her.
I stare at Selene and she slowly placed her hand on the trigger.
I pushed Daisy away and she landed in a loud thud.
“Shoot her now” Mr Gray yelled at the officers.
Bbaanng! A sudden gunshot echoed through the place.
I thought I have been shot but to my surprise it was Selene who screamed in pain.
Daisy rushed to me.
I stared at Selene she has been shot by Mr Gray. She was shot in her arms.
Mr Gray glared at the police men,
"I am going to make sure you all are fired" he yells at them and they are obviously frightened. He and Daisy help me get up.
Selene tried to crawl to pick her gun but someone kicked it to a distance, it was Robin.
Mr Gray threw the gun with him at the police officers.
“Take her out” he points to Selene. “you all should get lost get ready to be fired.”
“Sir we are sorry, we didn’t want to make a wrong move” they said as they were already on their knees.
“Get lost before l lose it” Mr Gray yelled at them.
He was very angry.
They dragged Selene away who was already lying unconscious.
*
I got home and freshened up. Mr Gray and Mr Robin insisted on coming home with me.
We are all sitted in the living room. I explained to them the reason why l was abuducted by Selene.
I stared at Mr Gray and tried to process all what Selene told me earlier.
Am a fool indeed, l should have known all this while, the way he spoke to me the first day l met him in his office, the way he kept calling me a b---h and asked me for a blow job, and always telling me l was pretending and the other day, l saw my bracelet in his house but l brushed it off.
Does he really love me like Selene have said.
No! it can’t be he probably sees me as a w---e.
How is he going to react if he finds out am carrying his child?
Of all people why Gray Mensah
Why?
"Phoebe! Daisy called.
“You spaced out.” She said
“Hmm, l was just thinking of something.”
“Are you okay?were you hurt?” Mr Gray asked.
“No" l replied.
“I want to tell you thank you for the recipe, you made me slept like a baby in so many years.” He said.
I stared at him not saying anything.
This man just saved me a while again and here he is telling me thank you for just a recipe.
We continued to stare at each other.
Daisy and Robin excused themselves.
What are they even thinking?
"Mr Gray! Phoebe!" We both said at the same time.
“You go first”he said.
I stare at him. where should l start from l thought.
And there was a knock on the door.
“Coming”Daisy came out from only God knows where and rushed to get the door.
“Are you expecting anyone, Mr Gray asked.
“No l replied.
“Who are you ma’am” Daisy asked the person at the door.
“Can l come in l want to see Miss Phoebe.” The lady said.
I raise up my head to see who it is.
Maya! I called surprised.
“Mother!" Mr Gray called and l gasped in shock.
