FORBIDDEN LOVE

CHAPTER 13

Kendra was standing right in front of Richmond like Eve in the garden of Eden. Kendra is a beautiful woman with a well shaped body, voluminous breast and curves that can make any man go mad. Richmond could not believe that Kendra had just stripped naked right in front of him.

_RICHMOND: Kendra, are you insane?( picking up her dress ) you don't have to go this far just to prove to me that you love me.I have always respected women and I won't accept what you want because I don't love you.

_KENDRA: What kind of a man are you? How can you reject such an offer just because of Bella . she's not Even here so why not make me yours just tonight ( approaching him)

She captured his lips and started kissing him , she thought her plans had worked until Richmond pushed her away and asked her to leave.

_RICHMOND: Leave! I don't want to treat you bad , I think you have overstayed and I don't want to do anything stupid so please just go

_KENDRA: OK! I think I have been too nice.you can't treat me like this and go free. I know how to make you pay for what you've done to me.i will also make the person you cherish the most suffer.i think you will come back to your senses.have a nice evening.

_RICHMOND: Don't Even think about doing something stupid,else I will release the beast in me.

Kendra left his apartment that evening promising to deal with Bella.she thought by offering  her body to him ,he would change his mind but she has just realized that he really loves Bella . the reason why she is so angry is because she has a very big secret she has been keeping since she came back from Spain and she really wanted Richmond to sleep with her tonight but her plans have just failed.driving back home that Evening she regretted many things.

_KENDRA: ( talking to herself) that stupid fool left me when I needed him the most, now I'm forced to go after a man I don't even love( referring to Richmond) and to make matters worse ,he does not want me either.i don't even have much time because this pregnancy will become visible soon and I don't want to disappoint my dad who has so much hope in me. I have to deal with Bella, my plans are failing because of her, if I don't have Richmond then she won't have him either.

So Kendra is pregnant and no one is aware. She lost her mom when she was 8years old and being the only child ,her father decided to invest so much in her .She knows that her father's reputation will be destroyed once news of her pregnancy goes viral.She intended to stay in Cameroon just for a while and return to Spain where she intended to give birth and give  the child for adoption. but when her father told her about Richmond she saw the solution to her problem.

It's been days and Bella seems to receive so much love and attention from her man.she is dressing up to go out with Richmond.

_BELLA: I hope this dress is ok Eve.i spent hours looking for what to wear.

_EVE: yes Bella, I know somebody that will go crazy after seeing you.

_BELLA: hahahaha.you are Funny .

_EVE: I remember when you would say you don't care about what you wear anytime we want to go out but now you spend hours looking for a dress to wear .Love is a wonderful thing. I'm so happy to see you like this and not your other face hahahaha.

_BELLA: I don't know what I would have become if I rejected Richmond.

_EVE: you would have surely become a grandma ,just look at the way you've changed until you are doing make-up hahahaha.

_BELLA: I don't blame you hahahaha.

Bella finished dressing up and Richmond came in few minutes later.when he saw her, he didn't hesitate to exclame

_RICHMOND: wow! You look so gorgeous babe.

_BELLA: Thanks my love.

_RICHMOND: come here.

He gave her a passionate kiss and they left.On their way to the restaurant, Richmond decided to tell Bella what transpired between him and Kendra that day .After listening to what Richmond had to say, Bella was shocked.

_BELLA: How could she stoop so low ? That's the craziest thing I've heard since I came to Yaounde.

_RICHMOND: It sounds strange to you but that's how far some ladies can go to trap men.

_BELLA: Thank God my man is a gentleman ( giving him a kiss)

_RICHMOND: Women like you are rare so I can't afford to lose you my queen.

Richmond reserved a table and demanded that it should be well decorated . When they got there, Bella was so happy that tears filled her eyes( tears of joy) Richmond held her hand and placed a soft kiss and said she deserves all the best things in the world.Bella could not hold back her tears.

_ RICHMOND: hey babe, don't cry this is just the least I can do for now.i have a lot in  Store for us .

_BELLA: Oh babe, I love you.

_RICHMOND: I love you too babe.

They had a good time at the restaurant.Richmond decided to take her to his apartment.

_RICHMOND: Welcome to my home sweetheart. Feel at home.

_BELLA: Wow,you have a nice place.

_RICHMOND: yeah ,but something is lacking ( with a sad face)

_BELLA: Hey babe, why the sad face? Tell me what is lacking and we will sort it out.

_RICHMOND: YOU.

_BELLA: hahahaha, I don't get it baby.

Richmond held her and brought her closer to the extent they felt each other's heartbeat and then whispered to her ear…

_RICHMOND: All I need to make this house more beautiful is your presence here.I can't wait to make things official between us.

_BELLA: hmmm , I have to finish school and get a job u know

_RICHMOND: I'm willing to wait .I don't want to put pressure on you . I want to support your dreams and see you become what you want to be.

After saying that, he started kissing her, Bella started feeling the way she felt the first time he kissed her, just that this Time the kiss was becoming intense .Their heartbeats accelerated. Richmond was made of flesh too.  so after kissing and caressing ,Bella noticed that he wanted more and decided to put an end to it before they do something stupid.

_BELLA: Babe?

_RICHMOND: I know what you want to say

_BELLA: Don't be mad at me.i I Eurrrr( stammering)

_RICHMOND: that's fine bb , I don't intend to do anything against your wish.i will wait till when you are ready.

_BELLA: I've never been with any man before.

_RICHMOND: I know bella.come let me show you around.

Bella was happy the way he behaved. She was scared because she has heard girls saying that when you refuse to have s*x with a man he will abandone you. Richmond showed her around and they decided to watch a movie.the evening ended well ,as they both discussed a lot about family, their relationship and did not stop kissing and cuddling . Richmond wished Bella could spend the night but unfortunately she had to go to school very early so he had no choice than to accompany her home.When she got home , Eve was still waiting .

_EVE: the way you are smiling I don't need to ask how the evening ended.

_BELLA: After a romantic dinner he took me to his house.

_EVE: wait wait wait,did you guys….

Bella understood what she wanted to say 

_BELLA: Mafff ,he is a gentleman.he just showed me his house and we watched a movie and that's all.

_EVE: Hmmmm, someone is Happy.

_BELLA: Oh yes.And the most interesting thing is that he's from our village too.

_EVE: Really? Wow.

_BELLA: Yes oh .

Kendra paid someone to monitor Bella's movements.so when she heard that Richmond went to the restaurant with Bella and later took her to his place, She did not hesitate to put her plan in action.

ON PHONE

_ KENDRA: Hello.

_UNKNOWN: yes madam

_KENDRA: I want you to attack now.

_UNKOWN: I'm right in front of her house.

_KENDRA: Good, make sure you do the job well.

_UNKNOWN: trust me .

Bella was in the living room while Eve was in the bedroom.so she heard a knock on the door and rushed to open only to meet face to face with a strange man , she shouted and the man gave her a slap that made her to fall .Eve heard Bella shouting and a man asking her to Cooperate. Kendra did not know that Bella was staying with someone.so the man he sent to r**e Bella was not aware that Eve was inside.when Eve heard him saying Bella should cooperate, he decided to act smart .she called Richmond who luckily was not far yet.when he heard what Eve said , he reversed his car. Eve called  boyfriend Patrick as well. Bella's life was in danger.
