Chapter: FIVEAURELIA’S POINT OF VIEWToday's mock trial would be a blood bath. it was supposed to be about academics, about improving us as lawyers and litigants, but I knew it was more than that.My class was extra competitive, and the fact that the infamous Levi Vale was our professor made that even worse.Valerie and I already had an unspoken battle for who would be the top of the class, so the fact that we were against each other in a case that hit too close to home made it a lot worse.I walked into the hall to see that it was much fuller than it usually would be. It seemed word had spread around, and people filled the hall in throngs as students, non-academic staff, and professors walked in and sat awaiting the beginning of the trial.My nervousness crept in as I looked at the multitude of people in the hall. I walked to my regular seat and placed my head on the table, appearing nervous, knowing Valerie, she would be relaxed if she thought I was too scared to face her, which could grant me t

Chapter: FOUR LEVI’S POINT OF VIEWThe first time I saw her, it was from her side profile. I had just closed a big deal, and as such, I went out to celebrate. I was a black hole, I felt nothing, and just lived my life as it came.Tired of sleeping with the same kind of women, I decided to drink my sorry self away. I was thirty-five but it felt like I was fiftyMy routine was simple: be ruthless, do not go to court unless you will win, which is why I have never lost a case, ever. My record is spotless, and it earned me a reputation in the state of Illinois and the whole country, as well as internationally.It was not always like this, though; my parents were lawyers too, but nothing like I am. My father lived his entire life serving his mates, I swore that would never be me so I worked my ass off in law school and years later, I am now a billionaire, the one lawyer only the elite could affordI stared at her, or rather her back, as she was turned to me. I could tell she was tense from the way her sh

Chapter: THREE AURELIA’S POINT OF VIEW It felt as though everyones eyes were on me and it was as I stood in the huge hall filled with at least fifty students, only the best of the best were allowed in his class and well….a few students who could have their rich parents bribing the way through for them but I was a part of the top five students, I could not afford to have anyone upstaging me or removing me from my spot here. He looked at me with a blank expression, but I knew better. it was like I could see the devil on his face as he stood in the center of the hall, staring at me with his icy blue eyes. it was funny how his eyes were the color of my favorite shade of blue. “Tell the difference between the Mark Anthony v the United States and the Mark Anthony v the United States of America,” he asked, and instantly I heard papers rustling as different students tried to search the cases to avoid disappointing him Suddenly, he yelled “YOU, YOU AND YOU GET THE HELL OUT MY MY CLASSROOM, IF YOU WANT TO

Chapter: TWOAURELIA'S POINT OF VIEW " What? I don't understand” i stuttered as i looked at him in shock, my hand still in his as he looked back at me, pure rage and irritation and shock in his eyes but his face was completely blank, he knew how to hide his emotions well but for some reason, i could read him to an extent." I'm sorry, I got the information that the meeting was for eleven, I did not know it was for ten in the morning, sir.”I heard another voice say, and turned to look, A female voice stuttered as I turned to look at the blonde-haired woman at the end of the hall, looking like a deer caught in headlights.I heaved a sigh of relief as I realized I was not fired." Why is she still here?” He - Levi said irritably and instantly, his workers moved swiftly into action as she was led out of the office." You will all come to know this: tardiness is not an option; if you are one second late, you're out. I am not entertaining lazy lawyers here. If you want to be with the best, you must be

Chapter: ONEAURELIA'S POINT OF VIEW I was not supposed to be here; if anyone I know sees me here, they would he concerned. Here I sat in a place that was definitely not made for me, in this tight black dress I purchased in a sale from Sephora, nursing this drink in my hand.I wasn't supposed to be here, but what the heck, right?I hissed as the burn from the shot hit me in the throat before gesturing to the bartender to refill my cup“Are you sure? You have had quite a lot to drink today, miss?" He said and i looked up at him, the look of concern in his eyes pissed me off“Mind your damn business" i snapped and he simply poured my drink- good choice I was supposed to be celebrating today, I just got accepted to the law firm of my dreams, any lawyer or law student would die to work there, and after applying for months, I finally got in! I should be ecstatic but here i was fighting tears and my thoughts, today made it seven years that my brother -Desmomd Cross was sentenced to life for the crime

Chapter: 131ALVAREZ'S POINT OF VIEWA few days ago, I could make any command with a glare. I ruled my kingdom with an iron fist, my word was law, and people feared me. Now, here I am, in a fucking cage filled with rats, little food, and a fucking police officer on watch duty.How has the world changed?Fuck no!I will not be staying here for so long, I will get out of here and make them all pay. Raining down my hell on the world would be one thing I will do, even if I have to die in the process. First, that whore, Maria will get what's coming to her. I will make sure to kill that bitch in the most excruiciating way possible, that will teach her to a lesson on how to be the good dog I trained her to be. Then, that fucking attorney general, his death will be glorious as I hang his dead body after torture, and lots of gunshots, in the front of his house, placing him as a spectacle for the world to see as the pig he really is.The world is evil, the people make up the evil in the world, but here the

Chapter: 130ALVAREZ'S POINT OF VIEWThey led me out to another room, the damn interrogation room. A few minutes after I was made to sit on the steel chair, the door to the other end opened again to reveal the last person I thought I would see.The attorney general of the fucking country!The bald-headed man in his early thirties walked to the chair on the other side of the table, his sleek black shit sharp, and pristine as he sat, his icy stare on me as his eyes narrowed. "Sir, these are the files you asked for," Iris says as she hands him a thick folder filled with different documents"I take it these are the documents found in his house?" He asked, his gaze on the documents as he flipped through them."Yes, sir, these are some of them. The rest are being processed as we speak. Our officers are still checking through the house, before it will be officially sealed off," She says, standing at alert by his side"Good," He says before turning to me, a condescending glare on his face. I want to take

Chapter: 129ALVAREZ'S POINT OF VIEWI blink rapidly, trying to clear my hazy vision, as the ringing in my ears renders me temporarily deaf. It feels as though I was just waking up from a nightmare that would never end. The feeling of paralysis, as I lay in that damn bed, unable to open my eyes, unable to lift my ficking thumb, unable to move a limb, as every cell in my body felt as though it were on fire. My mouth was dry, numb, and without taste as I tried to feel my tongue.In that moment, the only thing I could truly feel was the pounding of my heart as it felt like it would burst from my chest at any moment from the force with which it beat. "Maria!" I call out, my eyes closed as I try to regain control of my body, it still felt like a fucking sack, unnaturally heavy, and limp as I lost all control of it. The bitch did not answer as I called"Maria!!" I yell again, if she takes longer to come here like the dog she is, I will be cutting something off. She was too slow already, it seemes she n

Chapter: 128: THE BEGINING OF A HUNTDOMINIC'S POINT OF VIEWStanding there, I watch as the SWAT team, dressed in their uniform, kick down the door of the house, completely ripping it off its hinges."POLICE! HANDS ABOVE YOUR HEAD! STAY STILL OR WE WILL SHOOT!" yelled one of the officers, probably the captain, as they moved with a fierceness, the cameras moving in on the kitchen, but no one was there. All that could be seen was a first aid kit and some blood-stained tissuesThey moved further into the house, covering every other else till they got to the bedroom. The small room, the last place they needed to check, the one place the motherfucker was, because he had no choice. He would not, would not move.Maria's drugs had made sure of thatThe son of a bitch lay lifeless on the bed, his eyes closed shut, as his body lay still, his mind olivious to the shitstorm I have weathered in his life."Police! Do not move, hands above your head!" An officer yelledThe foolHe obviously cannot move, you idiot! I yelled in my mind as

Chapter: 127DOMINIC'S POINT OF VIEWThe next video came up. It was another video. This time it was of a man, his blonde hair looked like he had run his hands through it in a mix of anger and frustration, as he gritted his teeth. His red face displayed his anger. The caption in the video read "I USED TO WORK WITH ALVAREZ IN THE FORCE BEFORE I GOT TRANSFERRED TO ANOTHER STATION IN A DIFFERENT STATE"He tries to position his phone in the video as he starts to vent, the camera shaking at different times. and sometimes at an odd angle"I ALWAYS KNEW SOMETHING WAS UP WITH THAT SON OF A BITCH! CALL ME WEIRD, BUT I JUST KNEW, IT WAS FROM HIS BODY LANGUAGE, THE WAY HE SPOKE. EVERY SINGLE EVENT, PARTY WE ATTENDED WHILE I SHADOWED HIM AS A JUNIOR, HE WOULD MAKE SEVERAL REMARKS ABOUT CHILDREN, ABOUT WOMEN. HE ALWAYS SPOKE ABOUT SELLING THEM, ABOUT GOING BACK TO THE TIMES WHEN WOMEN WERE MADE TO SERVE MEN. I KNEW SOMETHING WAS OFF ABOUT HIM FROM THE START. HOWEVER, NO ONE EVER BELIEVED ME! Everyone always th

Chapter: 126SABINE'S POINT OF VIEWI watched as the weight of what had just happened settled in each and every one of us. It was fucking glorious, the way it was all revealed, the aftermarth would be even better. I got up and walked over to my husband as he paced the living room, his long legs moving back and forth, with his hand on his chin. He was clearly deep in thought; perhaps he was thinking of another way to ruin Alvarez.We all are.Getting to him, I pulled my hand out with an expectant gaze. He looked at me in confusion, before he handed me a black card, his name plated on it in gold print.I stared at the card with an exasperated expression as I sighed. He smiled, his gaze unsure as he whispered, "What? You want another one?" He went for his pocket again, but I just shook my head as I hid the card away in the pocket of my shirt."No, this is not what I wanted, but I will keep it...for supervision," I said, lying through my teeth. I would wreck the card with my newfound shopaholic skills
