Chapter 1 Meet the Main Characters
In the Eastern part of Nigeria, there was a young handsome boy who was tall for his age. He had great charisma and was admired by all.
A lot of ladies and young girls who were older than him found him attractive and irresistible.
Those in the same school with him made him their school son while they called themselves, his school mother.
So, at that young age of twelve, he was introduced to the act of sextual intercourse.
He would spend his weekends with one lady friend after another.
His studies suffered but to him, it was made up for by the numerous material and monetary gifts his lady friends gave him that his parents could not afford to give him.
He had more expensive clothes than he could care to count and enough money to throw around.
He grew being an expert in the act of lovemaking. This further drew more women his way. His game grew among the womenfolk as a master lovemaking machine.
With the steady flow of women around him, and frequent uninhibited sex, he only knew want, sextual desire and gratification.
That young man was Felix Nnanna.
He didn't know what love was until he met Gift.
Gift was a young beautiful girl of fifteen. Born to Mr. and Mrs. Onyenma, a comfortable family in the same village as Felix.
She had secretly loved Felix but was discouraged by the steady cluster of women around him.
It could well be imagined, the joy and elation she felt when Felix noticed her and made her a proposition :
'I'd like you to be my girlfriend'.
She felt she would get herself a great bargain so she said, 'I can't'.
'Why not', he asked.
'Well because I don't share'.
'What are you trying to say?' he asked confused.
'Well, I can only accept to be yours if you will be mine alone' she replied.
'Meaning?'
'Meaning, I won't be your one of your girlfriends. I will accept you if you make me THE girlfriend'.
Felix looked at the young girl and was enchanted by her. Her boldness and courage's was admirable and her beauty, captivating.
He felt something shift in the region of his chest and knew that he could not afford to lose her. If giving in to her request would make her his, well he would do it.
'Okay, I accept'. He said without meaning to keep it.
'Swear it on your life'. She asked wanting to be sure that she was not letting herself in for a huge heartbreak.
If Felix was shocked, he didn't let on.
'I do', he swore.
Gift was happy but sad at the same time because she knew that it was possible that she would fall under the influence of the obsession that had ruined the relationships and marriages of her sisters. A sexual Obsession.
But she could only pray that she be spared that. So, she pushed the fear to the back of her mind and accepted the outstretched hand of Felix as they walked away, hand in hand.
There began a steamy love affair. But will this love affair stand the test of time? Or is it destined for doom?
