Blaze wandered around the house. "Why are there no photos in this huge house? Boring..." She flipped the remote and tuned in the television. "Breaking news! a man has been washed ashore. He was identified as Mr Clark Derks and someone claimed that know his engagement with one of the Mafia clans in Italy." Blaze's jaw slacked "Clark? Clark's dead?" Tears brimmed at the edges of her eyes. Clark was her closest friend, her backbone. Someone that motivated her the most in the cartel, the person that made her reach the height she's at now. As one of the best in the witch clan. This failed assignment was assigned to her and Clark and now he's dead. "I'm sure, the witch has a hand in this" she clenched her fist and yelled furiously. "Why is she so heartless? All she does is issue instructions and nothing else. After a few seconds, she began panicking, losing him like this made her think about her life. Moreover, Clark and she were one of the witch's best crew but she just killed him li
Jason pushed away the papers in his office the next day at work, his mind was jumbled up. Earlier this morning, he had sent Jeremy to act as his proxy in the board meeting after telling him what to do. He felt like destroying Stone and Xavier. His door opened and Bethany stepped in. She let out a bow and walked up to him, taking a seat. "Good morning Sir, sorry to barge in on you... But I couldn't stay without asking." After struggling with a little hesitation, she continued" I saw Stacy leave with you yesterday and since then I haven't been able to reach her." She leaned closer to the table and in a whisper, she asked "Where-is-my-friend?" Jason couldn't say anything, he kept mute while maintaining a straight face because he know nothing to say. "Don't get me wrong but I know something's going on between you and my best friend. She has refused to tell me and I'll be the last person to pressure her to speak. I've noticed that you give a ride almost every day unlike before. It's not
Blaze woke from her sleep and leaned on the couch. If there was an award for the loneliest individual, she would happily receive it. She took bread and jam before plopping on the couch. "What do I do? How do I leave here?What was that code again? 2-5-1-9 is that the right code? Argh! I thought that won't be important till now." She raised her legs to the ceiling when she heard noise from the gate. She adjusted herself and waited for whoever it was. Jason barged in fiercely, headed to the stairs. He ignored her again and she felt quite bad. She stood up, biting on her fingers. Jason came out of his room and on getting to the door, Blaze rushed in and spread her hands over the door. "Seeing how uneasy you are, she's still missing. I can help"His heart rose and fell because of the short run he had engaged in. Indeed, he was queasy. His mind is disoriented as well as himself. He released his breath and walked back to his couch. "Don't think about it, we will find her" she assured and ta
Alya looked at the man and ignored him taking a sip of her drink."Seems like you don't recognize me" he chuckled and hurriedly took a shot. "I'm Jeremy from Xeparando." He brought out his hand for a shake but was ignored. "I'm sorry for everything, the dismissal and-""Can you at least shut it? I'm trying to think here." She lifted her drink and left for a different table. The barman shot daggers at Jeremy who only smirked and followed her."There is no need to run away, we are in the same boat. Distressed and unlucky" he chuckled and crossed his arm over his chest. Alya sighed and took a sip."I'm quite more successful than you. Quit comparing me to you... asshole! Jeremy kept looking at her while she gazed at him with much anger displayed on her face.*************Bethany felt disturbed as she slightly opened her eyes before rubbing them. The place was quite dark and different. She removed the duvet covering her and lowered her feet to the floor. "How did I get here?" She scratc
"Jason?" Stacy called and traced her hands behind his back. She suddenly felt calm and sad at the same time. Jason disengaged from the hug and reached for her face."How are you?" His eyeballs quivered immensely as tears welled at the edges of his eyes. Stacy was startled by his great concern. How his hand moved marvellously on her face, yeah she needed that, she missed it and it left her dumbstruck. While she stood transfixed looking at his eyes. Jason kept checking her out. Indeed she appeared beautiful.Matteo caught up to them and interrupted. Stacy turned to him as Jason watched him with a quizzical look. Why is he dressed like that? I thought he was a cleaner.Stacy turned to observe Jason's countenance. He stared at Matteo with annoyance evident on his face. Stacy cleared her throat and introduced them again."Jason! This is Mr. Matteo Esposito""Matteo! This is the CEO of Xeparando company, Mr Derrick Jason." She let out a smile while Jason kept studying her.Matteo got annoye
Xavier kept looking at Bethany until he got hold of himself and yanked her hands off. "Seems like you are already awake" He adjusted his t-shirt and stood up abruptly. Bethany scratched her nape and yawned lightly. "And I slept again" She managed to stand up as she walked out of the room without uttering anything. On getting to her door, she inserted her pin and got inside her room, slamming her door too hard.Xavier shook his head and walked into his apartment annoyed. "That rude lady" he mumbled and plopped down on the bed.At home, Stacy took a warm bath and wore her night dress. Her mind was uneasy. She stood and began pacing, her hand massaging her jaw. "I haven't thanked him, I should thank him but how?" She reached her door and got outside her room into the passway. It was already 2 am. She walked slowly and got to Jason's room. Seeing him lying by his side on the bed, reminded her of her first day here and how she saw his face. "Time flies indeed," she thought and got in."A
That night, as Jason shut his eyes, he saw flashes of himself, filled with rage, standing over a man he had shot dead. Other images of five men flashed in, lying lifeless in different positions, at different locations. He felt relieved, breathing the metallic scent of their blood before walking out of there. He was dressed as Black Moon and the wind played with his black jacket which was as dark as a heart void of forgiveness. He opened his eyes, watching the ceiling. "I'm almost there, Rose." He smiled and averted his gaze at Stacy before laying a soft kiss on her cheeks.*******************Alya woke up with a spiralling headache. She made to stand but fell back to the bed. "Where am I?" She mumbled with her eyes moving through the familiar room. "Home? Home!""How did I get here? Why did I drink too much?" She scampered off her bed. Rushing to the mirror " I look horrible" her hands went over her face and she sighed lowering her head. Immediately, Ms. Sonia walked into the room and
Blaze stood and sat down abruptly. She hasn't been herself. Ever since she heard the question "where are you?" from the other side of the phone, she has been perturbed. "I have to act as fast as possible. At least if I'm to get caught, I'll be with my prey" While she bit her fingernails, her ears reacted to the sound outside. It seemed as if the leaves moved. Her heartbeat increased and she hurriedly went outside out of curiosity. "I thought this place couldn't be tracked" she pulled the gates wide open and went to the leaves. Lowering herself to the ground, she saw a footmark and wondered who it could be. "Hmm" "Let it not be what I'm thinking" she got in and sat down, scratching her nape when she heard Jason's car horns. She rushed to her room and locked her door. Jason and Stacy got in, giggling. "Where is she?" Stacy asked and he shrugged. She got to her door and laid a knock but no one responded. "Are we that late? Seems she's asleep?"She ran to Jason, hugged and told him Go
