chapter one
Diana was happy as she walked swiftly along the road heading to uncle james house. she had a couple of time to spend on earth before returning to the underworld.
Diana was eighteen years old and had sold her soul to the devil becoming a demon. She was no longer a being. She sold her soul to the devil to enable her get revenge on her father twelve brothers.
Her dad was from a polygamous family and was the only child his mom bore forth before she passed away; the other twelve brothers he had were his half brothers born by his step mothers. her grandfather other wives. her dad became independent from a young age and his hard work payed by becoming the richest from his family. his twelve other brothers became envious about it and diana knew.
Her dad married her mum,dira. her mom had given birth to only her when her father died in an accident which she believed where part of her uncles schemes.
she walked faster as memories ran down her memory lane and it was as though it happened just yesterday.
Her dad had died when she was just four years old. luckily her mum had a company of her own and was among the elite circle so things remained as luxurious as ever. two years after her dad had passed away, her uncles came for a visit. she was six at that time. her uncles came on a Saturday because they knew her mum, dira was going to be home.
diana was suprised to see her twelve uncles pay her a visit in their house. it was het first time seeing her uncles in a coded manner. The truth was not all her uncles were present during her father's funeral.
mrs dira welcomed them and served them various dishes according to their orders. After refreshment, they got into real business. they told her mum that since drake who was her father was dead, it was the choice of the next brother to marry her or not.
Mrs dira couldn't help but laugh out loud because she could not believe that men who claimed they were of high social status still believed in such outdated culture.
Diana saw her uncle meant real business by the looks on their faces. she wished her mum could just stop laughing but her mum laughed on the more as her uncles felt humiliated by her mum's laughter.
After a while, dira stopped laughing and became serious. dira looked into their faces and told them that she had made a decision that she was never going to remarry and that was final and whatever stupid decision they made was up to them.
uncle james being the oldest of her twelve uncles stood up and said that he had two options for dira. it was either she got married to him and he takes over the whole property under her late husband name or he and the remaining eleven brothers present would have a round in bed with her.
Diana didn't really understand what her uncles had meant but she knew whatever it was they said had her mum shocked.
Dira was shocked but turned down the both options and politely told them to leave her house.
uncle james laughed like a psycho and he started approaching dira.The remaining eleven brothers followed as if they were being controlled by something.
Diana remembered her mum threatening to call the police but her uncles didn't give her the chance snatching her mom's phone and smashing it.
Diana screamed and ran to the telephone to call the cops but one of her uncles by name greg had her bounded up on a chair before gagging her.
Diana watched in tears as her mum struggled to free herself but got overpowered and molested to death before her own eyes. it was one of her uncles moku that had released her before walking away like the rest as though nothing happened.
Diana could not believed that she was holding her mom lifeless body. it was a cold blood murder.
