Loved by two men

Chapter one

"Get out!" His voice thundered, sounding like a heavy storm was about to descend upon me.

"You can't do these, Danny, I don't have any other place to go to you know that...so please don't do these to me!" I pleaded like he was my only hope and truth be told he was really my only hope.

"Have had enough of you babygirl, and all your constant nagging" he replied.

"Babygirl...!" I scoffed, how could he be calling me babygirl in these intense moments, I mean he is about to throw me out of his house knowing fully well that I don't have any other place to go to and now...

"You have had enough of me hun?, you know what Daniel I guess I should be saying that right now!" I yelled back mustering all the courage I had left in me.

"Jezz, Wow! Wow! Wow!.... so now you are even yelling back at me...ugh, how dare you!" He almost slapped me across the face but he held himself before he could.

"You know what babygirl... how about I just let you stay and give you the best punishment for Daring to speak back to me? '' He threatened.

I was not going to fall for his threats this time, I hate him and am not going to accept his bully anymore.

"Do your worst Daniel!" I stepped on his leg with full force making him leave my grip in pain.

Immediately I ran out of his house not wanting to have anything to do with him ever again.

"You can't run away forever babygirl am going to find you and make you pay for these!" He yelled as I ran away.

I had no idea of where I was going, lost in thought I kept on walking down the road without a destination.

Well he is my boyfriend!

I mean my ex boyfriend, and have promised myself never to go back to him.

>>>flashback<<<

I met Daniel two years ago at a funeral, my parents' funeral ceremony...he was attending a funeral but not mine, his father's funeral.

My parents use to work for his father, and one day after work they were all going back to their home, I mean my Dad had to drive him home and my mum usually come back by bus... but on that blissful day Daniel's Dad had asked my mum to drive with them back home since it would be easy to take a cab from his house straight to ours. My mum agreed and on their way to his house they had a fatal accident and none of them survived.

Daniel's mum blamed the accident on my Dad when they took them to the hospital, she said if he had driven the car a little slower then maybe her husband wouldn't have died.

She didn't care that I was made an orphan due to the accident, well no one really cared but all they were concerned about was who was going to succeed the chairman's position since he was dead... both the media and reporters made it seem like my father was to be blamed for the accident. And the police stopped investigating the accident.

I was so angry and devastated at that moment, nobody was willing to help an 18 year old girl hoping for justice for the death of her parents.

But there was Daniel, on the day of the funeral I was outside the mortuary crying out my eyes when someone for no where gave me his handkerchief to use clean my eyes...immediately I looked up i discovered that it was no other person that the supposed new chairman (Kelvin Blake) everyone knew him as that but I know him as Daniel since that's was the name he gave to me.

I hated him, his mother, the police and everyone that helped close the case to my parents' accident so they made him the chairman immediately.

"And what do you want for me now!" I yelled not caring if he was the new chairman of Kevin's enterprise, one of the biggest and strongest companies in America.

"You shouldn't be shouting at the latest chairman in town like that" he said it with pride making me want to punch him in his face.

"And what do you want from me Mr Chairman, am sure you aren't here to kill me like you all did to my parents" I replied as I wrapped the tears in my eyes with my hands.

"Just call me Daniel instead of Mr Chairman, it sounds too formal" he said with a smile.

I grind my teeth as I looked at him " Daniel or whatever you call yourself, this is the late time I am going to be asking you these! What do you want?" I said confidentiality, not caring about his evil gaze.

"You!" He smiled devilishly.

"What?" I was confused why he would say to me "just get out of my way Daniel I need to attend my parents funeral, if you don't care about your Dad's own funeral" I said to him as I walked away.

I could feel his gaze fixed on me as I walked past and entered the funeral room.

After the funeral I looked at my parents picture once more before leaving the room and immediately I stepped out and I met Daniel again. I was so pissed that I wanted to just ignore him and walk away but he held my hand before I could finally leave.

"Am sure you would need my help" he simply said.

I scoffed "what possible help could I need from my parents' murderer " I replied.

"Well luckily for me I am not your parents' murderer so I can be for help" he replied without any form of expression on his face so I couldn't figure out what he meant or what he was trying to say.

"Trust me babygirl, you aren't gonna regret it" he said again.

"Just let go of my hand...right now!" I yelled.

"Oh, that temper...you really need to keep it in check am not a fan of people with temper, and moreover am here to help since I know you don't have anywhere to go to but if you don't need my help then I will just leave" je.said as he let go of my hand and walked away.

"Why would he want to help me in the first place!" I scoffed and walked away also.

Immediately I got to my house i was meant with an unexpected guest, our landlord! He said I have two days to leave the house since our rent is due and I can't afford to pay for it. He came two days before my parents funeral and now again..he had told me that he was going to give me two days to either pay or leave his house after my parents funeral.

Am sure Mrs Kelvin is the mastermind behind these and am not going to give up, then it occurred to me that Daniel had said he was going to help me, meaning my suspicions were right anyways...Mrs Kelvin was really behind these. But why is she after my life I don't get it and is that why her son is also trying to help me so that they could kill me also and shut me up for good.

I thought to myself as I went to the kitchen to get water to drink, I have not been able to eat anything for a week now.

Two days later

Daniel came to my house unexpectedly like usual. He did that yesterday also and I was so pissed..

"Why are you still rejecting my help?" He asked as he walked into my house.

"Because I'm sure you and your mum are up to know good, ok! Now leave" I said.

"Come on baby girl, not so soon" He replied.

"Don't even! Don't dare call me that" I said angrily.

"Fine, but am here to help, you know if I wanted to do it forcefully then I could have but am here pleading to help you" he said.

"And that's what doesn't make sense at all. Why would you just want to help me for no good reason?" I asked.

"Because I had a promise, ok! Am sure you aren't going to believe me but on my Dad's deathbed he asked me to take care of you ok..and am trying all I can but if you still don't want my help then.you can just suffer on your own I don't care"

"What! You Dad? That doesn't make any sense, not at all" I replied.

"Well now you know, I can't believe you thought I was after you life...am just trying to fulfil my Dad's last wish" he scoffed "I don't know why he could care about a complete stranger on.his deathbed"

"Am not really a stranger to him, I have known him for three years now and he is a nice man...well that explains why you acted like you cared, I mean you don't even know me so, yeah this explains it" I replied thinking carefully about everything.

My landlord came in as I was talking to him, and immediately he saw Daniel and he bowed to greet him. I mean everyone respects him since he is the new chairman now.

"Don't mind me just go ahead with what you came for" Daniel said as he looked at me with a smirk on his face.

"Oh my God, so he even knows that I was asked to leave and he can't even...what am I even saying he already offered to help him just waiting for my response" I said to myself.

"I have packed my things and the remaining thing I will need time to pack everything" I said to the landlord.

"I already told you not to exceed two days with your packing and it's already two days so you have to pack up and leave " the landlord said.

I looked at Daniel, but he didn't interfere a bit... "gosh how much i hate him" I said to myself.

"Fine please help me" I said with a bit of anger in my tune he knew I was hopeless so he laughed.

"You said you have packed your things right? Then meet me in my car now" he said and turned to the landlord "and you give her two more days she will come get her remaining things" He said and walked out.

"Just two days," my landlord said and walked out.

I went to my room to pick up my traveling box and went out to meet him in his car.
