CHAPTER FORTY SIX
She stood before the gate, looked at her watch: 18:41. She knocked again for the third time. The neighborhood was quiet. No one was in sight and that gave her chills but it was probably because of what she’d been through lately. Get ahold of yourself Ludo, she told herself.
The gate squealed and Kate peeped. She saw Ludo and smiled. She widely opened it and before she could let her in, she looked around to be sure no one was around and then motioned her to enter.
“I thought you were not going to show up,” Kate said as they walked to the door.
“I keep my word Kate,” Ludo said.
They entered the house and Kate offered Ludo a drink but she refused. There was some tension between the two women. Obviously, a lot had changed since they last met and they really needed to address the elephant in the room. Kate broke the awkward silence and asked Ludo about how she had been and how her parents were and if they were still together. They

Kate moved back and forth as she checked her watch. Where is he? She gritted her teeth. It was now getting dark and they had agreed to meet up but he was nowhere to be seen. She hated to be kept waiting.“Am i late?” Hunter asked, coming out behind her.“Yeah,” she answered annoyed. “Let’s get going. You’re riding in the trunk.”Hunter didn’t say anything. He walked round the car as she followed him. She watched him open the trunk, get into it and before she could close it, she said, “Have you heard anything from Ludo today?”“No,” he responded looking up. “I bet she’s fine. The less we hear from her, the safer she is.”“But i need to know where that Stone guy is.”“You will, let’s get going. You’re not the only one after someone.”She slammed the trunk in his face and walked back to the driver's door. Sh

Unshaken, Hunter stepped towards Naveen and stood face to face with him. “I know you can kill me right here right now but i don’t have any beef with you Naveen. I have no problem with you or your family. I came here for Devi.“This is my house!” Naveen pushed him back.“And it so happened Devi is here. He almost killed an entire family in Chisoti village to get you that land. He didn’t succeed because of me.”This was news to Naveen, completely different from what he was told. “I don’t care what you tell me, you killed my father Hunter.”Irritated, Hunter said, “I didn’t kill him for crying out loud. I might know who did though.”When Naveen wanted to speak, they heard tires screeching outside and Hunter instantly figured it was Devi. Not minding Naveen in his way, he took off bumping him out of his way and found his way outside. He found two guards who seemed ready for h

Driving a Land Rover Discovery at the speed of light, Naveen kept his eyes on the road while engaging Hunter. He wanted to know more but Hunter couldn’t tell him things he also wasn’t sure about.Immediately after putting a bullet into Devi’s neck, Naveen had pressured Hunter. “Who assassinated my old man?”Confused, looking at Devi’s lifeless body, Hunter had answered, “I told you before, it’s just a speculation.”“Tell me about it!” Naveen had yelled.“Come on man. It’s just a speculation. I know the man who pulled the trigger but the mastermind behind it is the one i am not sure of.”“Who pulled the trigger?”“Some guy named Stone.”“I don’t know anyone by that name. Why would he want my dad dead?”Hunter had gone quiet.“Hunter I am talking to you!” Naveen had pointed the gun at Hu

****ONE MONTH LATER***** Ludo, Lance, Kate and Walutanga came out of the Magistrate court excited. They had managed to put the criminals behind bars. Naveen was sentenced to forty years imprisonment. Ben cooperated by being an informant and his sentence was reduced to 10 years. Grace was put in a mental hospital. After Mapulanga died, she somehow went crazy. “Ludo!” Melanie shouted at Ludo. Ludo went over to where Melanie was. She was with her husband and son. “Hey beautiful family,” said Ludo. “Congratulations to you Ludo” Melanie’s husband said. “Thanks Norton and thank you Melanie,” she hugged her. “You really helped us clear Hunter's name.” “No problem dear. Where is he by the way?” Melanie asked. “He never came to trial. Not even a single day. The moment he was released after that arrest, he went AWOL.” she said. “That’s Hunter for you,” Ludo replied with a smirk. “Anyways, We are going now.” Melanie

Eyes wide open in the middle of the night, Ludo was horrified with whatever bad dream she was having. She tried to move her head but to no avail. She could only move her eyes. She could see most of the things in her room but couldn’t reach for them. She usually slept with her bedroom door open. She tried to scream but her voice failed her. The more she tried to move, the difficult it became. She felt a presence in the room and became even more afraid. Her eyes shifted to the door in hopes of seeing her mother coming to her aid. She saw an ominous shadow at the door peeping. In seconds, she felt a weight pressed against her body that she failed to breathe. Her body was paralyzed and there was no way to fight the paralysis.“Ludo!” Her mother shouted entering the bedroom.Ludo saw her mother sitting beside her but she still couldn’t move. Her mother just sat there and watched her.“Mother,&rdq

You see what you have done Joe?” Ludo’s mother asked her husband.“How could I have known Zamiwe?” Joe touched his head. “It was going great, I don’t know what happened.”“She told you she didn’t want to go but with your arrogance, you had to make her go.”“Is it a crime to go out with my daugther Zamiwe?” Joe’s eye brows bumped together in a scowl.Zamiwe knew better not to irritate her husband. She knew he had the same rights as her when it came to Ludo. Despite their differences, Ludo was for the both of them. They were just both overprotective of her.“I didn’t it mean it that way Joe,” Zamiwe answered thoughtful.“I know she’s sick and I care for her. Don’t make me look like a bad parent please!” Joe sunk in his chair.They all became quiet and lost in their thoughts. Ludo’s condition had tak

Hunter checked his time. 11:24. His flight was at 14:00 hours. He had prepared everything and had packed all his gear. Leaving the country was not on his wishlist but there was nothing he could have done, that was his only way to stay alive. He didn’t expect Hilary to betray him like that. Trust, for him, was a big word but he relied on her. He knew she could deliver but along the way, love happened to her. It was the same love that got her killed. Hunter didn’t have any regrets on Hilary’s murder. Killing had become a hobby for him. His phone rang. He looked at it feeling his heart pound. He answered and remained quiet. “Hunter!” A man’s voice answered on the other end of the line. Hunter didn’t say anything. “I can feel you breathing and from the looks for it, you are scared Hunter,” the man said. Hunter restrained himself not to say anything. “Well, let me get to the point,” the man paused and coughed. “I kno

“You must be joking,” Kate looked at Kent and bursted into laughter. “I’m serious Kate. The man was serious,” Kent said seriously. “That’s just bullshit! He was just trying to scare you!” She objected him. “Where could Ludo have gotten all the information from to write a story about the most notorious crime lords of our country?” “You have to ask her,” Kent shrugged. “He was just scaring you.”She repeated. “I could feel it in my heart that he wasn’t.” “How come I haven’t heard about these people?” “You are not in their circles that’s why.” “Are you?” Kent nodded. “If they are that notorious, we could have read about them somewhere,” Kate concluded the discussion. Kent didn’t say anything but looked at his wife. “Finish up your breakfast; you have to go to work,” She told him while she washed the plates. Kent had not slept much after the talk he had with the stranger in the club. H
