Delicate Love Chapter 1 1

CHAPTER ONE

GOLDEN FAME UNIVERSITY

LADY DEBORAH'S HALL

ROOM 301

Rose Nkem picked up her phone and checked the time. It was 15 minutes past the hour of 7 and she was supposed to have Electronics which was her first class of the day by 8 am. It was a class that all physics science students dared not miss. She groaned as she stood up from her bed to take her bucket and her bathing bag which contained everything needed to bathe and brush.

"Good morning Miriam." She greeted the only roommate that was awake while others were still asleep in the eight-man's room.

"Good morning dear, how was your night?" Miriam asked her.

"It was fine, thank you."

She looked round the room in search of her friend but didn't find her. She might still be at the party. She thought as she undressed, tied her towel, and left the room heading to the toilet. Halfway through, she bumped into someone.

"Ow! Geez! Can't you look at where you're going?" Her betrayal of a friend hollered.

"Sorry Susan, but I think that's karma for ditching me at the party you practically forced me to go knowing I don't know a single soul there."

"God punish karma. Now my headache has increased." She stomped her feet and continued going when Rose yelled;

"When did you get back?!"

"This morning, Rose, see you at the class." She yelled back answering Rose who had already continued her journey to the toilet.

Since it was still very early, there were few girls at the toilet doing their morning routines, some were brushing their teeth while some were taking their baths as fast as they could, some were washing their clothes even though it was prohibited to wash in the toilet, some were just looking at themselves at the mirror probably finding out how big their boobs or butt has grown, Rose marched to the tap and turned it on just to find out there wasn't single water coming out of it.

Just great! She thought. She walked up to a fair lady brushing her teeth and asked;

"Please, where did you get water?"

"Downstairs, there isn't water on any of the floors, just go downstairs straight." The fair lady explained, Rose thanked her taking her bucket which contained her bathing bag and hurried downstairs praying she won't be stopped by the portal for tying a towel. As she reached the ground floor, she thanked her God for answering her short prayer for there wasn't a single person in the portal room. She continued her journey to the tap and groaned again when she saw there was a long queue awaiting her. The day, being Wednesday was already getting tiring.

How will she get to her class early now? She thought regretting ever following Susan to the party that she didn't even enjoy. It took about twenty minutes before it was her turn, she fetched her water and tiredly carried her bucket so she could begin the journey up to the third floor.

FACULTY OF SCIENCE

FS106 LECTURE ROOM

8:26 am.

"Rose, you're so late, what the hell happened?" Susan whispered at her as she entered the Hall where her lecture was already taking place.

"Hush!" She cautioned her friend who was sitting at the back of the class probably because she was late also.

As usual, the class was so full since it was one of the most important courses they were to offer. PHS 216 lecturer, to which she didn't know his name was a very strict man who calls the attendance himself. In conclusion, it was a must-go class unless you want to fail.

"Why didn't you tell me there was no water?" Rose asked Susan who gave her a not-so-cute puppy face.

"Sorry, it slipped my mind."

"I'll never forgive you, Susan."

"What again?"

"You ditched me remember? You ditched me for a guy. What happened to misses before misters?" She asked Susan, slightly annoyed.

"I'm sorry okay. I couldn't miss what he was about to give me for anything." Susan winked at her and she gagged.

"May God forgive you."

"What do you know. Mother Virgin Mary."

Susan was what people call the men's lady, she had a body to kill for and she was also popular among guys. Rose wouldn't be surprised if she has slept with the whole guys in their department.

"Better don't get pregnant and ruin your life... Man-whore."

"I won't Virgin Mary, I'm a pro at this." She winked and Rose wondered how she was a friend with a man-whore but she loved her all the same.

She ignored her man-whore of a friend and diverted her attention to the lecturer who was explaining the NPN transistor, she jotted down some important notes mentally telling herself she'd collect the whole note from a coursemate.

FACULTY OF SCIENCE

OUTSIDE FS106 LECTURE ROOM.

10:10 am.

"That man is so strict, how can we be having a test just two weeks after resumption?" Eunice, a coursemate of Rose asked rhetorically.

"And we even have a workload of assignments to do and submit on Friday." James, another of her coursemate added.

"Plus the test, I hate him." Susan hissed. "Especially that his face that looks like a gorilla." And everyone laughed which seemed to calm them.

Rose collected Eunice's note and took pictures of the notes she couldn't write mentally telling herself she'd write it once she gets back to her hostel.

"Hey, guys." A deep masculine voice like that of a rushing wind, greeted them.

"Hey, handsome." Susan greeted back and all other of her course mates who were present.

Wow! She mutters, amused at the Greek god that stood before her. He had a carefully carved jaw, his pointy nose sat well on his face, and his brown eyes complimented his dark skin. He was so handsome. Realizing she was gawking, she immediately diverted her eyes away from the guy who caught her staring and smirked. Her heart did some somersault that had never happened in the whole nineteen years of her life.

"He's cocky." She heard Susan whisper who also caught her gawking at the handsome jerk. "Don't fall for his beauty."

"I wasn't." She lied. "Let's go." She dragged Susan away from there who waved at the rest of the course mate.

As they reached the quadrangle, which was far away from the Hall, Susan asked;

"What happened to you Rose?" Rose knew Susan was looking for some gossip but she wouldn't give Susan anything to gossip about. Instead, she used the innocent card.

"What are you talking about?" She feigned ignorance.

"You know what I'm talking about girl." Susan said, wriggling her eyebrows. "You were checking him out, everyone saw that."

"I wasn't." She lied again for the second time.

"You were."

"I wasn't."

"You were."

"Geez! Ok yes. Yes. I was looking at him. Happy?" She snapped, giving Susan a good laugh. Rose shook her head at her friend's childish behavior.

"Rose is falling for the Playboy." Susan teased.

"You know him?" She asked, curiously, and was not surprised when Susan nodded her head in affirmation.

"He was at the party, didn't you see him?"

"I didn't. You ditched me remember? and I was all alone and had to leave." She stated with annoyance dripping on her tone.

"Well, that's your loss. He hosted that party. I heard his father recently sent him his first set of millions for getting admission here, so he celebrated. He's one of the direct entry students in our department." Susan explained and she nodded.

"No wonder it was my first time seeing him." She muttered silently.

"For the love of God Rose, he was at the party!"

"Yeah, yeah, Susan I've heard. Please let's go. I'm famished. I didn't get to eat before coming to class."

Flash Marriage To My Best Friend's Father

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch—a titan of industry and my best friend’s father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.

I was four months pregnant, weighing over two hundred pounds, and my heart was failing from experimental treatments forced on me as a child. My doctor looked at me with clinical detachment and told me I was in a death sentence: if I kept the baby, I would die, and if I tried to remove it, I would die. Desperate for a lifeline, I called my father, Francis Acosta, to tell him I was sick and pregnant. I expected a father's love, but all I got was a cold, sharp blade of a voice. "Then do it quietly," he said. "Don't embarrass Candi. Her debutante ball is coming up." He didn't just reject me; he erased me. My trust fund was frozen, and I was told I was no longer an Acosta. My fiancé, Auston, had already discarded me, calling me a "bloated whale" while he looked for a thinner, wealthier replacement. I left New York on a Greyhound bus, weeping into a bag of chips, a broken woman the world considered a mistake. I couldn't understand how my own father could tell me to die "quietly" just to save face for a party. I didn't know why I had been a lab rat for my family’s pharmaceutical ambitions, or how they could sleep at night while I was left to rot in the gray drizzle of the city. Five years later, the doors of JFK International Airport slid open. I stepped onto the marble floor in red-soled stilettos, my body lean, lethal, and carved from years of blood and sweat. I wasn't the "whale" anymore; I was a ghost coming back to haunt them. With my daughter by my side and a medical reputation that terrified the global elite, I was ready to dismantle the Acosta empire piece by piece. "Tell Francis to wash his neck," I whispered to the skyline. "I'm home."

HONEY MULLINS

Six years ago, I was a naive girl sold by my father to the powerful Sanders estate, only to be tossed onto the streets after a brutal assault they labeled "marital infidelity." I fled the country pregnant and broken, hiding from the shadow of a husband I had never even met. Now, I’ve returned to New York with my triplets to sign the final divorce papers and disappear forever. But Archibald Sanders—the man I was told was a crippled recluse—intercepted us with the cold precision of a predator. He didn't see the woman his family destroyed; he saw a gold-digger who had shamed his name. His security team hunted us to a grimy motel, using tactical force to snatch my children away and drag me to his glass-walled empire. In his office, he loomed over me, demanding a DNA test and threatening to throw me in prison while my babies were lost to the foster system. He was convinced I’d cheated, yet he stared at my sons with a haunting confusion, unable to ignore the stormy blue eyes that were a perfect mirror of his own. I stood there, paralyzed by his scent—the sharp tang of rain and expensive leather that triggered the icy dread of my worst nightmares. How could he accuse me of betrayal when he felt exactly like the monster who had shattered my life in that dark hotel room? "I'll sign anything," I sobbed, "just give me my kids." But the game changed when my five-year-old son hacked the tower’s security, holding the skyscraper hostage to save me. In the chaos, a fragile, silent boy—Archibald’s secret son—wandered into the room and reached for me as if I were his missing soul. Archibald’s face turned to stone as he tore up the agreement and locked the doors. "Until I find out why my son is looking at you like that," he growled, "you aren't going anywhere."

Phoenix Rising: The Scarred Heiress's Revenge

Phoenix Rising: The Scarred Heiress's Revenge

Xiao Hong Mao
4.3

I lived as the "scarred ghost" of the Stephens penthouse, a wife kept in the shadows because my facial burns offended my billionaire husband’s aesthetic. For years, I endured Kason’s coldness and my family's abuse, a submissive puppet who believed she had nowhere else to go. The end came with a blue folder tossed onto my silk sheets. Kason’s mistress was back, and he wanted me out by sunset, offering a five-million-dollar "silence fee" to go hide my face in the countryside. The betrayal cut deep when I discovered my father had already traded my divorce for a corporate bailout. My step-sister mocked my "trashy" appearance at a high-end boutique, while the sales staff treated me like a common thief. At home, my father threatened to cut off my mother's life-saving medicine unless I crawled back to Kason to beg for a better deal. I was the girl who took the blame for a fire she didn't start, the wife who worshipped a man who never looked her in the eye, and the daughter used as a human bargaining chip. I was supposed to be broken, penniless, and desperate. But the woman who stood up wasn't the weak Elease Finch anymore; she was Phoenix, a tactical predator with a $500 million secret. I signed the divorce papers without a single tear, walked past my stunned husband, and wiped the Finch family's bank accounts clean with a few taps on my phone. "Your money is dirty," I told Kason with a cold smile. "I prefer clean hands." The cage is open, the hunt has begun, and I’m starting with the people who thought a scar made me weak.
