Dirty And Dangerous Obsession

MONALISA P. O. V.

Her facial expression went blank as she held onto the necklace as if her life depended on it, and she looked lost in thought with her gaze still fixed on me.

I walked past her, leaving her in her wild delusion, as I entered my bathroom to have a quick shower. I didn’t want to keep Derek waiting. Within 20 minutes, I was done.

I came out wrapped in my towel and was stunned to see her still lost in thought while holding the necklace.

“You have to leave now. I need to get dressed.” I walked toward her and yanked my necklace away from her grip without her noticing, but she tried to seize it back.

I raised my leg, preventing her from reaching out to it because I was a bit taller than her. “Answer me. Where did you get it from?” She screamed behind me as I strode to my long dressing mirror to apply my body cream, but I acted like she never existed in the room.

“Answer my damn question—-”

“I owe you no fucking explanation! Let me be!” I lashed out at her and sent her a hard glare. She gazed back at me and exited my room fuming in anger, but I didn’t care anyway.

I quickly sent Idris to the bathroom and changed into my white sleeveless short gown, and quickly styled my hair into a ponytail. No makeup, just applied pink lip gloss on my lips and wore my moon-designed necklace as I called upon Idris to change his clothes too. He ran out and stood in front of me while I changed him into a nice outfit from his small luggage.

I took out a black purse matching up with my shoes, and we both walked out of the room. Just then, I saw Doven standing outside my doorstep, with his hand shoved into his pants pocket. He flashed me his usual smile.

“How long have you been standing here?” I asked, locking my door; just because of intruders, people like Diane.

He slowly shook his head, still having that smile on his face. “I just got here. Mob asked me to bring you to the club.” He informed, glancing around. I wondered why though.

I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion because Derek was the one meant to bring me to the club, not Doven. Does that mean he left without taking me along? “Where is Derek?” I inquired, with a hint of disappointment in my voice.

“He had something important to attend to. So… he left.” He shrugged his shoulders. I sighed. That Derek of a guy is so full of himself. So he wasn’t joking when he strictly gave me 30 minutes.

But who the hell gives a lady 30 minutes to dress up? Doesn’t he know that being a lady comes with lots of work? I mean, he should’ve given me 1 hour 30 minutes, by then I should’ve been done. “What’s the time, Doven?” I asked, staring at his wristwatch.

“You are three hours late from the given time.”

All thanks to Miss Diane, because it was all her fault. “Let’s go already.” I led the way, pulling Idris alongside me while Doven trailed behind.

“Is he tagging along?” He asked, I knew he was referring to Idris.

“Yes, he is. I’m bringing him to his mother,” I answered, still walking. We got outside and just within five minutes, we hit the road.

I brought out my phone to call Candy, but after so many calls, she never picked up. So, I decided to text her instead. “WE ARE ON OUR WAY NOW.” I sent the text, and unexpectedly, hers came in instantly.

“SORRY, I’M ABOUT TO GO ON STAGE RIGHT NOW. WAIT FOR ME IN THE DRESSING ROOM, I WILL MEET YOU THERE.” She replied.

Within 1 hour, Doven halted right in front of the clubhouse and we all got down. While Doven threw his car keys at the security who caught it in mid-air and drove the car away.

We both walked into the clubhouse without any bouncers obstructing me, just like the first time. Instead, they bowed at me while I walked past them. I think they don’t want to get on Derek’s bad side.

The club was so noisy and was indeed filled up with people, as I sighted Candy dancing effortlessly on stage just like the expert that she is.

I averted my gaze down to Idris, who had a scared look on his face, as his gaze wandered around. I could guess just by his physical expression that he was uncomfortable and I quickly turned to Doven. “Please, can you go with Idris? I don’t want him seeing all these kinds of stuff.” I handed Idris over to him.

He held his tiny hand. “Okay, I will drop him off at Mob’s office.” He began walking away. I took in a deep breath and softly sighed.

My gaze wandered around for some minutes but unfortunately landed on Lily, Candy’s friend. Just in time, her gaze met mine just when I was about to walk away. She hurriedly danced toward me and wrapped her arms around my neck, dancing while I smiled at her shamelessness.

“What’s up, girl…!! We haven’t been seeing you around.” She screamed excitedly, pushing her hair away from her face.

That was when a white fabric wrapped around her forehead caught my attention. My eyes widened. “You got into an accident?!” I was bewildered, pointing at her forehead.

She only shrugged her shoulders. “If it was an accident? Girl… God really loves me. But those boys dealt with me real bad. I almost lost my life.” Her cheerful mood was replaced with a sad expression.

“Which boys?” I couldn’t comprehend what she meant.

She let out a sad laugh. “You forgot? Truth or Dare? Two months ago?” She furrowed her eyebrows.

Of course, I will never forget my Dare. But hers? I thought everything was sorted out that day. But not after the boys left, threatening to deal with her for comatizing their father.

“But I’m fine now.” She flashed me a smile. “Gardy is on stage. Do you want to wait here with me? The guys are over there.” She pointed at them, sitting not too far from where we were standing and they quickly waved at me, which I reciprocated nervously.

Hell no! Not even in my dreams will I repeat that mistake. Well, it was never a mistake that I met Derek, but what if it was someone else? I mean someone more dangerous. I’d rather wait for her in the dressing room than with them before they indulged me in some crazy dare. No Candy to save me this time.

“Uhm… No. I came here because of someone else, not Gardy. Uhm–Uhm… Lily, I will see you later.” I began walking away before she could stop me.

“Got some dude to fuck?” She teased and held my hand and pulled me back to her. I shrugged my shoulders with a smile.

“I’ve got to go.” I slightly pushed her hands away and ran away. I followed the direction Candy showed me the first day, and I stood in front of the door. Just when I wanted to turn down the doorknob, I felt a strong hand grip my shoulder and slowly turn me around.

My gaze came in contact with the ugliest thugs who were so bent on being my second nightmare. The three thugs I met the very first day I stepped into Italy tried to harass me that night, but Candy came to my rescue.

I thought I had escaped them forever. “Missed us?” The fat one among them stepped forward, his lips straight into a smirk.

Fear crawled all over my body as I tried so hard not to shiver in front of them.

“Who will save you now?… Gardy is on stage. Now we can have you all for ourselves.” He leaned over and touched my hair, with his smelling tongue slicking my cheek lustfully.

Just the thought of having their hands on my body made my face screw up in disgust. “Don’t you dare!” I shrieked and pushed him away from me, gazing around for help but nobody was around.

They all laughed in unison, “Scream all you want, nobody will save you from us!”

I wished the ground would open and swallow me up because I would rather die than let them have their way with me. Suddenly, they began communicating in Italian, smirking at the same time. I believe whatever they are cooking up is bad.

Please, Lord, send me a helper. Derek, where are you?
