It was a sunny day.
So, I decided to go for drinks, in order to clear my head and come up with an actual plan of how I was going to get back on my feet for real.
My destination was low-key, a quiet hotel in Ikoyi.
I didn't want to run into any of his friends or business partners.
I was not yet ready to explain what had happened, or why I went off for a while.
As I sat by the pool side and ordered a Cocktail, I noticed a young man directly opposite me staring at me.
The longer he stared, the more uncomfortable I became.
Suddenly, I noticed him walking up to me, I quickly pretended to be on the phone.
"Are you not Doyin Duncan?"
He said.
"Please leave me alone. I don't feel like talking, and I want to be alone."
"This conversation, would be worth your time, I promise. My name is Dan can I sit?"
I rolled my eyes. Obviously, this one wasn't going to give up so easily.
"All right Mr Dan, what do you want from me."
"First, I'm so sorry for your loss. Mr Duncan, was a man of integrity and a marking guide for us all. Please accept my condolences. Mr Duncan was an incredible Boss; full of love and kindness. He showed us the true meaning of diligence and discipline."
I cleared my throat.
"Thank you."
Tears rolling down my cheek.
"Why did he do such a thing?"
He was a bit unusual and I had never met anyone like him.
He looked straight in my eyes and told me.
"There's a lot you need to know about the death of your father."
"I - I don't understand. My father stabbed himself! What is there to know again!"
"Calm down, okay, that's what you were made to believe. That's what we all have been made to believe. That your father committed suicide."
He said.
Placing his hands on my shoulders.
I shrugged.
"My mum was there! She told me she tried to stop him, but he pushed her!
"You also believed that? Hmm. I've been working for Mr Duncan, for twenty-five years, and I can boldly say, I know him more than anyone. He tells me everything ; his deepest secrets, his weaknesses and strengths, and I know that he would never do such a thing, even if he was compelled to."
I was shocked, but I hid it well.
"What are you trying to say?"
I sniffled.
He continued.
"About a month ago, before his demise, he told me something rather shocking."
I sat up.
My eyes were puffy and wet.
"Tell me what you know."

For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club. Shocked by the desires these men aroused in her, she was disappointed to learn that they were masters seeking a slave to divide and conquer. She couldn't afford the fee, and she also realized that they were outside her league. Emily hurriedly left the club, feeling disappointed and depressed, unaware that she had also caught the group's attention. A world of wicked pleasure, three handsome men. Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.
