We booked an Uber. It arrived very fast. As soon as we were moving, my phone rang. Unknown number. I answered anyway.

“Hello? Hello?”

Nothing. Just quiet breathing. No words. So I handed the phone to Gabe. He said hello, but the line stayed silent, filled with static, then the caller hung up.

“When did this start?” he asked.

“A few days ago,” I said.

“I’ll get a private investigator on it,” he said.

I leaned back. Something about the call made my stomach tighten. Back At the store, Amanda was arguing with the mason over costs. I pulled her aside. “Gabe can handle it,” I said. The final touches for Madam Hung’s home were ready, just waiting for delivery.

“No new clients until the store is set up,” I reminded her. “Focus here.” Amanda nodded. The architect spread out the remaining sketches. We agreed on the final look. Our main Goal: Noahs Ark should be ready by next week .I went to my office for a moment of peace and quiet. Then voices pulled me out. Gabe and Geena’s bodyg

  • Aaliyah’s Return    Pastries

    Pastries At about six, the doorbell rings, and I jump in my seat. Amanda glances at me, eyebrows raised. I ignore her and slip into the living room, where Gabe is accepting the pastry boxes from the dispatch. I clap my hands in delight. Brandon chuckles. “Aaliyah, you have such a sweet tooth.” “I do,” I reply, grinning. “And it’s definitely needed today, considering what’s happening later.” I open the top pastry box and pick out a strawberry tart. The moment I bite into it, it explodes in my mouth, and I can’t help but groan softly. Brandon stares at me transfixed as if the rest of the room has vanished, his wolf flashing in his eyes. I meet his gaze, unflinching, until Gabe coughs, trying to clear his throat as if he is choking . Amandas face turns red and starts fanning herself. “Brandon , your power is leaking,” Gabe says Brandon closes his eyes and reels it back in, He is now cool as a cucumber again …Only Gabe and Amanda seem to have been affected. Noah is too busy

    Much later after having lunch, A sudden craving hits me. Pastries from the patisserie across the street are calling my name. I tried to think of something else but the craving is stuck to me like glue. I keep imagining biting into the buttery, melt-in-your-mouth flaky goodness with its perfect crust. What is life without a bit of sweetness? I think to myself. For one dangerous minute, I think about just going out without telling anyone. It's a few blocks away no one needs to know.… but then Sanity returns I will not make it out of the door before Brandon or Gabe catches me.… They would never approve, and they would have guards around me in an estate before I even made it across the pavement. I feel my frustration steadily building in my mind smh. I go into my bedroom for a few minutes and the craving will not let up. I feel so boxed in today, the silence feels suffocating and the echo of the constant steps of guards in rotation in the hallway is unnerving. Having the guards statione

  • Aaliyah’s Return    A Day in

    I am up quite early the first thing I do is my meditation exercise. A calm mind and even calmer body allowing the silence in the flat to help me relax. After a long hot soak in the claw-foot bathtub tub I wear a stylish green blouse and a matching pale green skirt, ready to make my home office my little work center for the day. I leave my room and go into the kitchen to prepare breakfast. While leaning on the kitchen counter with my fave cup of coffee in my hand, I think about the series of events that have occurred in the past couple of days, trying to develop of form of action. All of a sudden I feel someone breathing down my neck, I yell and quickly turn around to find Brandon. “Are you trying to scare me?” I ask, startled. “I have been behind you for at least ten minutes Aaliyah,” he says, eyes serious. “Please you have to be more mindful of your surroundings. It’s dangerous .” I nod, a little sheepish. “Okay, I’ll take note. Thank you. Good morning.” “Good morning, Aa

  • Aaliyah’s Return    Attempted break

    The sound of my phone ringing on my bedside wakes me up very early in the morning. Still half asleep, I look at the screen, and it's Gabe. I sit up abruptly, sleep clearing from my eyes instantly. My heart rate picks up. He wouldn’t call me at this time unless it were important.I answer immediately. “Gabe? What’s wrong?” “Boss,” his voice is steady but urgent, “there was another break-in at the store.” My heart sinks. “Again? Was there any damage this time?” “No, Boss,” he replies quickly. “But they tried to break the back door. The alarm went off, and they ran off.” “Please tell me they were caught?” I ask “Yes. This time they were caught. I’m about to call Mr Desmond to go down to the police station, stay with them during the investigation.” “Oh thank the goddess,” I say, relieved and frustrated by the constant attempts. A scapegoat is very necessary at this point to send a clear message to the attackers. “Now we will find out if it’s the same person who did it last time.”

    Then she walks away quickly like she can't bear to breathe the same air with me for long, I remain frozen in the spot, a fierce chill running down my body. My mind is racing with several unanswered questions so fast that I can barely keep up with it. Ten whole years… ten years of lies and trying to bury the truth. I refuse to let this go. I walk to the counter as if in a daze still shocked my hands are shaking as I accept my bag from the sales girl. Gabe is watching me quietly, he does not utter a word, but I feel his assuring presence. We enter the car, and the air outside seems a bit cold and crisp. Gabe enters the driver’s seat and then looks at me. “Boss is something wrong? Are you okay?” I look at the road ahead of us, holding the edge of my seat tight. “No Gabe I am not,” I admit, my voice low. I take a slow, steadying breath. “I have another task for you. Find out what exactly happened ten years ago between Anna Darcy, Geena, and Morgan Sparks. Every last detail. Everything t

    I wake up early filled to the brim with energy It’s a Monday and I like to start my week on a good note. I wear my workout gear and get into my yoga position, stretching and practicing my breathing techniques for a little over an hour before meditating. When I am done I burn some sage and Palo santo best way to welcome good vibes and prosperity. I take a long, refreshing hot bath when I am done.. I pick out a Beige trouser suit for the day. I have a few things on my agenda, and I want to dress to impress. When I walk out of my bedroom, the house is eerily quiet it’s clear that Brandon and Noah are still in bed. I go to the kitchen, make myself a hot cup of coffee, and slide some bread into the toaster. As I wait for my toast, I create a mental checklist: Mrs. Krantz first. By noon, Amanda Brandon wakes up moments later and steps out of Noah's bedroom.“Good morning,” he says.“Good morning, Brandon,” I reply.He heads back into his room to have a bath, then joins me in
