Must Read: The Cartel (18+)

**
Friday night, 8:10pm, the door to her cell room was thrown open and in came two inspectors. Saturday will make it exactly one week since Michael’s death and her subsequent arrest. Twice Mrs Margaret had showed up to see her just torment her with swear and curse words.
No one else knew her in Lagos so no one else visited her. No one gave her food as she was at the mercy of the few female cell mates with her whose loved ones brought food for. Twice she was taken into the interrogation room, where she faced all sorts of verbal and a few physical assaults from the inspectors with the hope of getting her to confess to killing Micheal. Talking about Micheal, whatever it was that had become of his corpse was unknown to her.




While she had no evidence, she was certain Mrs Margaret had killed him.
The touch light beamed on her face as she la!d on the floor preparing for what was going to be another dark, lonely and hungry night. Two university of Lagos girls were brought in earlier in the evening. She had been the only one in the female section after the last of her old cellmate got bailed in the morning. She had been too hungry and weak to engage her new cellmates in any meaningful discussion when they were brought in. She was only happy that at least she might get food in the morning when their people get notified of their arrest.
The two girls wouldn’t stop talking and swearing in Yoruba. She could make out from their intonation that they were promising to go exert vengeance on whoever is was that made them end up there.
A flashlight beamed on her face and was followed by a voice commanding her to her feet. “Hey you.. Calabar girl.. Get up”
As she struggled up to her feet wondering what it was they wanted from her by this time (well, she had no time source to know the actual time), a hand grabbed her and yanked her up to her feet. Cuffing her hands behind her, she was then pushed out of the cell. The other man locked the cell gate with the two girls inside, after which she was led to a room she hadn’t been to before.

Immediately she stepped foot inside the poorly lit room, she was pushed to the floor. With her hands cuffed behind her, there was no way she could cushion the effect of the fall on her body with her hands. She screamed and began to groan in pains having landed on her knees, breasts and face.
“ahhh.hh.. My God o.. What have I done to get this.. Ahhhh” she cried sorrowfully in Efik as she writhed in pains on the cold concrete floor.
“We don give you one week to confess but you no gree. You wan form harden girl abi?. Na dis night you go sabi say we no carry you come here to occupy space. If you like call you village god or your maami water people from your village, dem no save you today”. The second man who pushed her down bowled at her.
“Young girl, you better start talking” The first officer said to her locking the door behind them.
“Officers please.. I swear I didn’t…. Ahhhhhhhhhhh” She was cut short and screamed when a kick landed on her stomach. She wanted to retch, but produced and coughed out only saliva while choking because her belle was empty. The pain was so excruciating as she felt it first on her belle, her spine and then all over her body.


Again without warning as she cried in pains while holding her stomach, she felt a sudden gush of water on her body. The first officer could be heard dropping the iron “pail” bucket her poured the water from on the floor.

Her gown was torn from her body with her tried to hold the shreds together. Her p@anties and bra pulled with force until they ripped. She was kicked, slapped, and punched all over her body by the two men. While it lasted, they kept asking her to confess to the crime.
When she could no longer take the beatings after about 30 minutes, she screamed “I killed him.. I killed him… Officer please just stop.. I killed her”
“Did you use poison?” the first officer asked
Before she could respond, the other kicked her butt which made her say “Yes.. I used poison” while coughing
Again the first officer asked “Shebi it’s love potion you put inside his food?”
Same kicking repeated by the second officer which made her accept. “Yes.. I put love portion inside his food.”
He went on to suggest words and answers to her by asking other questions
“You didn’t know it will kill him abi?”
“You brought the love portion from your village”
“You wanted the man to leave his wife for you”.. And so many others.


She accepted everything because the other man was there to kick or slap her.
Done, the two men left her in the room and on the floor with no piece of clothing. They took with them the shreds of her torn gown and her undergarments. It was some 20 minutes later that they returned to the room. Exhausted from crying, she was almost sleeping while shivering as a result of the cold. She was held up by two of them who then took her out if the room down a passageway to what was a bathroom.
But for their torchlight and an electric bulb which had a low voltage, everywhere was dark. She couldn’t even see the faces of the men. Leaving her to stand by her self, the second officer began to pour water on body. She gasped and shivered the more when the water touched her body. With her teeth chattering from cold and her elbows pressed against her boöbs, the man began to soap her body.
He proceeded to give her what was a s£nsu@l bath as her deliberately paid more attention to her boöbs, between her thighs, her pvssy and her butt0ckz cheeks. Occasionally the first officer who held the flash light would pinch her nipplës.


“See your fine b0s0m and tot* (Lol.. I don’t like or use that word. Pardon me guys for sounding so dirty). “Something wey you for carry give better person like me. Na person wey help you husband sabi fvck. Yeye Calabar girl” The man said to her while curving his middle finger through her pvssy slit in a deliberate bid to finger fvck her
The first officer just laughed saying “O boy hurry up abeg.. My prick wan tear for here as I dey see her body so. Thank goodness my girlfriend come from village this afternoon”
Her spirit had been broken from the initial beatings. So their current assault only made her sob silently.
But after what seemed like forever, the man bathing her began to rinse her body. Turning her around sand pouring water on her back, her placed his palm on her butt0ckz cheeks and then ran his middle finger through her butt0ckz crack to her pvssy. He fingered her a little before declaring to the first officer he was done.



The first officer then removed from a nail on the wall, a towel she hadn’t noticed was there and dried her body. Done, he then gave her a folded cloth to wear.
Unfolding it, she saw it was a gown but couldn’t make out what the colour was under the light condition of the room. She wanted to ask for her p@anties and bra, but decided against that and just wore the gown. It was a bit bigger than her but she felt comfortable in it. She very hungry and sleepy at the same time. Her body was also in pains
“See how beautiful you look!” The first officer complimented her after pointing his torchlight on her body.
She wondered if he was mocking her. The same man who just beat her up and forced her to confess what she didn’t do. Well the other man actually did the beatings. Giving her a slippers they led her out of the room. “Does it mean this one was nice?” She wondered. She decided to try her luck by asking him for a favour.
“Please sir, I’m hungry”. She bloated out unexpectedly. She could barely hear herself.
“Oga will give you food” he said calmly.
“Oga? Who is Oga?” She wondered as she moved slowly and in pains with them. Not until they went past the cell building and heading towards a different building did she begin to worry where exactly it was she was being led to.
