Chapter 1

• Kira's pov
• I cleaned my hands with a napkin and ran to my phone that had been ringing for some seconds now.
• I smiled as I saw Daniel on the screen. My best friend. He's just the only friend I have since college.
• I clicked the green button and placed the phone on my left ear.
• "Dani, what's up?" I beamed with a smile.
• "The sky is up." He replied sharply.
• Oh oh! I ain't expecting that.
• "Anyways, what's this early morning call all about?" I asked him while I walked away from the kitchen to the sitting room.
• "Well, am sure you must have forgotten about the birthday party I told you about. Which is going to happen this night. You forgot right?"
• He let out a chuckle.
• "Oops! Damn it! Don't mind me okay? I already forgot about it. You know I don't really like partying." I answered.
• "Well, you must come. Just this one and I won't invite you to any again. Please." I could picture his pouting lips and puppy face.
• I sighed and replied, "Fine! Am coming okay. And we are gonna come back early. No alcohol." I stated.
• "Sure, no alcohol. Yessssss!! Finally!" I heard him say and I was wondering why he sounded so happy cause I accepted.
• "I know you're gonna f*ck some low life bitches. Don't get anyone pregnant!" I laughed.
• "Okay mommy. Am not! I promise to be a good boy. I need to go now." He rushed his words and hung up before I could even talk.
• I dropped the phone on the couch and went back to the kitchen to do my chores.
• **
• Soon, I was through with the chores. I went upstairs to take my bath and get ready for work.
• Am a receptionist in a hotel.
• I had my bath and wore a white shirt and black skirt with a black suit then white shoes.
• I primped my hair in front of the mirror. I packed my hair into a pony tail. Put on some light makeup, grabbed my bag and walked downstairs.
• I took some slices of bread in the refrigerator and added jam to it then ate it.
• I checked my time, it was 7:45am and I need to get to work before 8:00am.
• I hurriedly finished the bread and stood up from the chair. I took my phone from the couch.
• As soon as I got outside, I locked the door with the key in my hand.
• I boarded a Cab to the hotel I work at. I paid the fare and walked into the hotel.
• "Good morning, Emily." I greeted my partner.
• We are the receptionist of the hotel.
• "Good morning, beauty. You look so happy." She winked at me.
• "Oh! I should look happy always. Have always learnt to be happy." I replied.
• "Hey miss, can you show me the way to room 105?" A girl, more like a slut cause of the slutty dress she wore.
• The dress that barely cover her b*obs and her thighs. 
• "I'd take you there." I said.
• She trailed behind me as I walk till we got to the particular room we are looking for.
• "Here it is." I pointed to the door and turned back to leave.
• "You're here Angela. Have been waiting for you." A deep man's voice spoke and the girl's voice followed too.
• **
• "I wish am just gonna take a day off. I have headache. But that stupid man won't even want to hear an excuse. Just do his job."
• Emily groaned as she rubbed her forehead hard.
• "You just have to wait for one hour more before going home. Am sure Candice and Anne are getting ready." I told her as I yawned and placed my head on the table.
• Today has been hell. Can't wait to get home and have a good nap before thinking of going to the birthday party.
• Finally, I closed for today. Candice and Anne had come before I and Emily left.
• They are to work over night. A night shift.
• I got home so quickly and dropped my bag on the floor. I rushed to my room to take a cold bath that sent shivers down my spine.
• I changed my wears and jumped on the bed to take a nap. 
• Hours later, my phone rang again. I lazily opened my eyes and picked the phone.
• Daniel again?
• "What's it?" I rolled my eyes. 
• Why did he have to wake me up from sleep?
• "Don't tell me you forgot about the birthday party again!!" He yelled over the phone.
• "Wow! Daniel, you are sounding strange today. I didn't forget about the party. I just had a little nap. What time is it?" I responded.
• "9:00pm! I told everyone you're coming. So, don't disappoint me. Do not!" He snapped.
• "Daniel, are you alright? Or is it still the same Daniel I know?" I asked trying to be sure.
• The Daniel I know won't yell at me. 
• "It's still the same Daniel you know. But attitudes are changing. I wanna get what I want today." His voice cold.
• "Am gonna pick you up. Expect me in thirty minutes time." His voice turned cooed again and he laughed like he didn't say anything earlier.
• He wanna get what he wants today? What's that?
• I shrugged that off and proceeded to my wardrobe to select a dress and going to wear.
• I settled down for a blue dress and white sneakers.
• I loosen my pony tail and combed my long hair down. I did no makeup cause I didn't want to.
• I grabbed my phone and my small purse.
• I heard a car horn outside and I immediately knew it was Daniel.
• I smiled as i walked out of the house to meet him. I entered the car, staring at his cold face.
• What's up with him since morning? He has been acting strange.
• Or he maybe someone offended him and he tried to pour out the anger on me. Just maybe.
• Silently, he drove to a particular building. A big house. Music could be heard from outside.
• I heaved a sigh seeing Daniel giving me a cunning smile as he held my hand.
• "What are you up to? Daniel" I asked him.
• "Hmm...me? Of course nothing. Don't tell me you're suspecting i might do you bad. No. Don't you trust me again?" He chuckled and held my hand tighter.
• "I trust you Bestie." I giggled.
• We entered the building and sh*t! The noise was just too loud. That's why i hate parties. Especially like this.
• We were asked to drop our phone before entering and I was like 'what the hell'
• The music suddenly stopped and everyone turned to our direction.
• "She's here! Guys!" One of the boys said, grinning at me.
• His eyes looked around my body like he was searching for something.
• "So, I guess she's really beautiful just as Daniel said. With sexy body." Another one said licking his bottom lip.
• I looked at Daniel, he wasn't saying anything instead he was smiling.
• Before he would have given the person a dirty slap for flirting with me.
• He removed his hand from mine and faced me with the coldest face ever. I haven't seen him like this before.
• My heart began thumping fast.
• "Daniel what's all this? Is this really a birthday party and why's your face so cold like this? What's wrong?" I tried not to stammer.
• "Kira" He called and turned me to make my back face him.
• "Am sorry for what am about to do. The truth is, I never love you as a friend." He whispered in my ear.
• My heart skipped three beats. My body got numbed as i stared at the devils watching. Smiling. While some giggled as they gulp their drink.
• "What do you mean? Daniel. What are you trying to say?" I shivered as his hand touched my back.
• "He's trying to have his way. While we watch." A girl yelled and everyone laughed.
• No....hope it's not what am thinking.
• "Am trying to have my way like she said. Am only after your body and not friendship. I wanna get what I want today. And we end it here." He laughed.
• I struggled to let go of his grip but he was way too strong for me.
• He suddenly tore my dress and I gasped. Tears gathered in my eyes and they threatened to fall. They eventually did.
• "Daniel, don't do this to me. Everyone is watching." I whispered to his hearing.
• "Let them watch Kira." He held my arm and pushed me to the floor. 
• I whimpered and tried to get him off me.
• He shouldn't do this to me. His best friend.
• I trusted him.
• He never loved me as a friend but he's after my body.
• What's my offense to have deserve this?
• I never wanted to lose my dignity this way.
• I could hear laughter echoing in the room.
• "It would be better if you cooperate else, I won't be the only one to sleep with you but every boys in here will have a taste of you too." He warned as he tore my dress finally.
• His body covered me and asked some boys to hold my hands and legs to avoid me from struggling.
• His hand went to my pant and he tore it.
• I closed my eyes. More tears coming down from my eyes. I couldn't move or do anything just stood there like a log of wood.
• If only I knew it gonna turn out to be like this, I wouldn't have come.
• I curse the day I met you. Daniel.
• **
• "Daniel!! Please stop! Am begging you. Don't do this to me." I cried as he forced his self on me. 
• But he was just too deaf to hear my cries. I pleaded with him but he didn't listen. He groaned in pleasure while I cried in pain.
• I couldn't bear anything other than pain. Sorrow washed through me.
• Everyone was watching. 
• He had his way. My bestfriend. Some one i trust so much. I begged him. He still did it.
• I felt weak. Soon, he got up from me and asked the boys to leave me alone. He stared at me with no expression.
• He suddenly laughed and crouched down.
• "You taste delicious. Seriously, am sorry for what happened just now. But the truth is, never felt any thing for you. Just after your body. Now, i got what i wanted." He patted my cheek and laughed again.
• Others joined him. They mocked me.
• I cried the more. I felt ashamed. I felt pained.
• I sniffed as I got up shamefully from the ground. I will never forget this day.
• I limped, trying to get out of the place. Laughter echoed again behind me.
• I lost it. That dignity.
• I walked passed the man that had collected my phone. I didn't bother to take anything but only my purse. 
• My dress turned into a rag. I whimpered as I walked out of the building.
• A cab passed me but I was too weak to call it. 
• The cab suddenly stopped and it reversed. My eyes became dizzy. I couldn't see the person coming out of the cab but I know it's a lady.
• "Kira! Oh my God! Who did this to you? Blood!!" The familiar voice asked.
• Emily's voice.
• "Emily, " I called weakly and fell to the ground.
• "He will never have peace. I'm saying this with tears and pain. He will never ever have peace.
• He will regret doing this to me." That was all I said before I black out.
