My wicked stepmother

chapter 5

Ski's POV

I felt someone's presence at my back and I turned only to find my dad at the door way,I could have sworn I saw he's face soften a little but It was replaced by that boring look.

In a calm voice he asked me

"What are you doing here, where are the maid's"?

I stared at him, aunt Lisa in her right sense told me to go and do the dishes even in my situation.

Not ending there she went as far as telling the maid's that they are on a break and they should go and rest.

Few minutes after that she called me and made me wash all the dishes in the sink, saying I needed to work my ass off if i knew I wanted to get well on time.

"Aunt Lisa told them to go"I replied slowly,dad stared for a minute more and finally headed upstairs I could tell be was angry but I couldn't tell it was me or Aunt Lisa.

By now I canbtake few steps without limping I was so glad once I get my feet back the first thing am gonna do is show thst slut who is who.i muttered as a mischievous smile curved around my face.

Xavier's POV

I ran upstairs and flung my room door open.lisa was sitting on my bed with the most sexist black lingerie on.

Does she know what black means to a man.i tried to fight the urge.and face the reason why i came upstairs.

"Lisa I don't acknowledge the fact of how you are treating ski,she is still recovering and“. Shhhh came Lisa's index fingers on my lips.

God damnit I felt turned on, my raging monster was already poking me looking for every access to freedom.

Slowly with every passing seconds she touched Me and finally those tempting red hot lips came closer I captured them and ashira's face flashed through my mind .

I quickly pulled away and stared with disgust in my mind.

"We need to talk now.”I said sternly

She looked disappointed and I couldn't care less.

"What now,we haven't had time for ourselves and you know it Xavier,why are you being like this." She winned.

Looking at her I wish I could just grab her and throw her into the gutters, where she belongs but I know that won't be possible.

I heaved a long breath and spoke.

"Why is ski doing the dishes,you think you have the right to boss my child around".

"But I thought we had a"

"Now listen and listen good,yes we had a contracted marriage but that doesn't make you have any right against my child, the very next time you try something like this, I'll have you locked up".I threatened and walked out.

I needed some space.

Lisa's POV

Xavier must be joking,I haven't even started yet. By the time am done with ski,she won't even be recognized as a rich's man's daughter.

I remember everything it was I who was supposed to get married to Xavier after all, we had known each other ever before ashira came into existence.

I don't just know why, Xavier would choose her over me. although I hate to admit the fact that she was more beautiful than me.

Ugh, I hated everything about her although I had to stay friends with her if I want Xavier back.

Am just glad she's gone and dead for good.all these now I said staring at the the marble walls and wonderful painting will be mine all mine.

I got downstairs to find ski watching TV anger already boiling inside me who the hell gave her the right to sit on the couch.

I gracefully Walk towards the TV and shut it off.

"You don't get the right to touch anything in this house with out my permission.

She stared hard at me I knew she was smart and I was beginning to wonder what rubbish she will spill out.

"Your just being absurd and disturbed. over my mother's grave will I drag properties with you,if your so dumb why do you go to the court let them introduce you on how the stuff works."

This little girl was on my damn nervous,she was wheeling her chair away when I caught her arm.

"You think your smart huh,let me give you a word of advice, you better respect yourself , cause am not going to take it likely with you, if I lay my hands on you".

"You wouldn't dare "she spat back

"Oh I see, you think your smart huh,try me and see if those legs of yours wouldn't end up cripple for the rest of your entire miserable life nonsense.

I looked at her with so much hate and disgust in my eyes and all of a sudden got really mad and walked out.

Ski's POV

I wasn't going to let my guard down she had no place what's so ever to come into our home and just break it like that I blame my father for all this because if not for him,she wouldn't be here.

I notice that he was rarely around whenever all this rubbish was going on and even when he sees that she's torturing me he says nothing about it this is very unlikely of my father.

I wish I can just join my mother wherever she is but I know that if she were to be watching me now she will want me to fight .

And that is exactly what am going to do.

My legs were getting better each day and lesser and lesser I was beginning to walk.

Charles saw me the other day, but I told him to keep it a secret. For now he's the only person have been able to talk to.

Our call line rang in the sitting room,I took a peep and noticed no one was looking.

I rushed and grab the phone it was an unknown number.

" Xavier's residence how may we be of help to you."I spoke elequently like my mother taught me.

"Please this is St.vians hospital we are calling in behalf of Mr Xavier Edwards,he reportedly slumped in the car. Please he requested to see his daughter."
