Chapter 8Davis brought out his phone, his fingers tapping on the screen with agitation, he scrolled through his contacts as he quickly dialed Missy’s number. His teeth nibbling on his lower lip biting it with restlessness. The call went through, ringing out aloud as Davis anticipated dearly for her to pick the call, the call ended and it wasn’t picked. This fueled more anxiousness. He redialed the number and it was same. He could the tension rising up his chest.Then Davis decided to call her mother, he called her but the call never went through, surprisingly her number was switched off. “Lane, whatever game you’re playing with me right now. I need you to stop it, because if I decided to play my own game, I can assure more than your life would be on the line.” Tyler said to him, not fazed by the sweats which had surfaced covering Davis’ face from his forehead, rolling down to his cheek. “I’m not playing anything I swear.” Davis insisted, wishing his words could be proof by anyth
Chapter 9Davis felt his soul quivering at his sight, his hand felt stiff and motionless holding on to the phone that hanged against his ear.He stared with fright, unnecessary heat radiating from his within as it blows out panic that had his heart thumping erratically. Right in his two clear eyes, he could see his life at a gunpoint with no idea on how to escape it. He prayed and wished fervently in his mind for a miracle to happen, but he was sure nothing is going to happen. Missy screwed him up, and there’s nothing he and she can do about it. “Please you have-““Last words fella, not some words of consideration because I won’t be giving that.” Tyler never allowed him finish his statement. “Okay then.” The gun went down as Tyler corked it into action, his finger slid in the hole beneath the corner with his whole hand supporting through the hold, touching the narrow button that released the bullet and attempted to press against it before a phone started to ring. It was Davis’ pho
Chapter 10 Davis arrived at the door of his room, twisting the knob into opening but it was stiff and felt locked. He tried it again and it was same, certainly his doubt that it was indeed locked.He knocked three times on the door, “Missy are you in there?” Davis asked out aloud into the door. “Yes Dad, please open the door I have to tell you something really important.” Missy responded from inside, the urgency in her voice bringing about a curios look on Davis’ face. “Alright, I will try breaking it down.” He muttered as he moved back before barging the door with his arm, he shrugged the painful impact off before retrying the procedure that only left the door juggling and not attempting to break.Feeling frustrated already he sent his leg flying into a kick and straight to meeting the door that still didn’t bulge into opening.“Move aside,” Tyler’s voice quested for a chance, having Davis halting his trials that was becoming frustrating for him. He moved aside like he was told, g
Chapter 11 Missy sat next to Tyler at the back seat of the moving car, quiet with an extremely troubled mind. The same woman that had confess to her was seen by her standing right there with a glass of water and offering it to her. That’s mostly disturbing and well planned. How did she do all this? It’s obvious everything is well planned out and she left no room for impediment or anything. What a mastermind she is.She knew everything now, but her father is still in the dark. She needs to find out where she kept her mother, who exactly she is? She never revealed her real identity to her. She only confessed to her motives. Missy quietly turned her head to face him, the thought of how a man can be this good looking disrupting her troubled mind as she gawked silently at the man seating next to her with his head rested on the seat’s headboard while mutedly vibing to the music blasting from the EarPods plugged in his ears. He was oblivious to her eyes on him with his eyes closed. Tha
Chapter 12Missy was expectedly quiet throughout the rest of the ride. She just doesn’t know what else to say to him, to convince him that she shouldn’t be getting all he has set to give her, other than to just accept her new reality that is indeed going to break her. There seems to not be any other option.He knew she’s innocent, yet he’s still going with what his heart told him to do. They arrived finally at the big domain where Tyler reside. She stared through the window looking at the beautiful features cementing a vibrant view at the exterior of the Luxurious Manor. Albeit the sky was dark, the lights across everywhere illuminated her vision. Driving through the circular driveway, the driver halted the car at the feet of a sumptuous looking mansion that wowed Missy away the moment her eyes met with it.She forgot who’s taking her in, he’s not ordinarily named the youngest billionaire in the city. These are one of the qualifications that made him that, one could guess the exorbit
Chapter 13 The night passed by and she was awake all through the darkness. Weeping as she buried herself deep in her thought that this is now the life she would embrace. That everything changed and there was nothing she could have done about it. She’s saving her father, hence putting herself in a dire situation. Her eyes were heavily swollen and reddened from the lack of sleep and the tears secreted from it. Heavy bags laid below and above her sockets under her lashes, bringing her orbs into a shallow view. She laid there still and lifeless on her bed, sniffing against the pillow her head was buried in. Not wanting worser things happening to her, she went to the dinner yesterday to help with the preparation like the woman demanded her to.Tyler arrived and when it was time to eat, he said he lost his appetite just seeing her and doesn’t wish to eat again, he left there with the other that she also must not have dinner. He asked her to return back to her room empty stomach that the
Chapter 14Her feet wobbled against the floor, perturbation sipping through her system with her hand extended and folded in a fist about to place a knock on the golden framed door. Closing her eyes and heaving a deep sigh of relief she placed the knock. Surprised by the sound she made herself from the knock, it was so silent not even the human with enhanced hearing would hear it. She released more breaths of relief, calming herself down and giving wolf assurance to herself, she finally knocked on the door. The sound medium and normal. There was no response while she anticipated badly for a negative one. Her eyes moved about the door about to place another knock when her eyes caught the bell close to the top left of the door.She pressed on the available button, oblivious to the next step and just stood waiting for something to happen. Then the door automatically opened, she looked at the spacey entrance with no one behind it. It was then she understood the door is automatic and c
Chapter 15Missy was beyond stunned by Tyler’s defense of her status in the house. He literally warned Agnes, a mother figure to him that she mustn’t hurt her or try anything that would in any way hurt me, intentional or unintentional. He had asked Agnes to go apologize to her, which she has no option than to comply to. Agnes turned over to Missy. Her expression and all on her face shielded from Tyler’s view as she was backing him. “I’m sorry, my dear kindly forgive me and understand what I was trying to do.” She said, in a soft voice that speaks of her sincerity. But Missy looking at her expression, that speaks of her doom and the trouble she’s in later. She could tell the sincerity is fake. “Good.” Tyler commended. “What room did you her?” He asked, facing Agnes totally for a conversation. “Uhm, one of the guest rooms.” Agnes responded, turning back to face Tyler also. Missy knew she was lying, the other maid that brought her to Tyler’s suite said that was the maid’s quarters.
