“What!!!” Kate moves closer to Debbie's body, putting her fingers on her nostrils “she isn't breathing,we should take her to the hospital” Kate panicked.
They took her out of the house and boarded a taxi, getting to the hospital some nurses came with a stretcher and they placed her on it “please sis don't die on me, you are the only one I got apart from Dante.”Kate whimpers They took Debbie to the E.R, while Kate and Zara stayed outside pacing to and fro. The doctor was called in and after a while he came out. “ ma'am is my sister okay?” Kate spoke up. “Please you both should come to my office” Doctor Susan said and left for her office with Kate and Zara following suit. They got in and the doctor ushered them to sit. “Your sister, she is out of danger you were lucky to have gotten her here on time, she had an episode but this seems worse what happened?” Doctor Susan asked facing the girls. “I don't know doctor,I just woke up to see her shaking on the bed” Zara sniffed. “If you can remember something similar occurred during the time her parents died, did she receive any news of someone's death?”doctor Susan asked. Then Zara and Kate eyes widened at the realization that they had shown Debbie a picture of Mr Jefferson death. “Yes doctor someone died yesterday but not a relative of some sort”kate replied. “Okay, it advisable you keep her from such news as it triggers her. As it is she still can't remember what happened to her years ago.What about her paintings? Does she still draw?” The doctor further asked. “Yes she does” Kate answered. That's the only thing that keeps her mind balanced and at peace, she's fine now you can take her home” doctor Susan smiled warmly. “Alright doctor thank you” both girls said and left the office. Kate and Zara got to Debbie ward, going in to see that she was awake.”what happened? Why am I in the hospital?” Debbie asked softly and they ran to hug her. “Geez take it easy,you guys wanna take the last strength I have got” she joked. And they let go of her. “You scared us to death Debs” Zara sighed. “But am fiine now,am sorry” Debbie pouted and got up “now can we please leave,this place stinks alot” she covered her nose. They chuckled,all three left the hospital but Zara had to go back to her house. Kate and Debbie got home, “Kate can you please prepare something that we could eat,am starving” Debbie said crashing on the chair. “Alright” Kate said simply. Breakfast seemed awkwardly silent till “ sis don't you think it's high time we reach out to Dante?” Kate asked. “we haven't heard from him since we started doing things on our own” she added. Debbie sighs “ he drifted from us Kate he doesn't want anything to do with us, Zara mentioned something about him working for the Tyson clothing company” Debbie answered. “I know but he is still our elder brother, can't we go see him?” Kate asked. “Alright I will think about it” Debbie replied and Kate was excited. “Sis a fresh semester is about to begin in my school,I would resume classes next week” “ Awwn my baby is now an adult, so u won't be with me all day anymore” Debbie pouted C'mon sis am not leaving the house, I would only be out for few hours for lectures and we could spend the evening chatting” Kate chuckles “Doesn't matter anyway,am off to my room to paint”Debbie's emerald eyes glistens and she enters her room without waiting for a reply. TORONTO, CANADA Alex seems busy on his phone when Jace walks in.“Boss I just spoke to the pilot,he said we could leave for los Angeles this evening” Jace said and Alex looks up. “Jace you don't have to be formal with me,I have told you that countless times we aren't in the office” Alex said tiredly. Jace chuckles “Alright alex,so you should get ready and I would get your drugs we need that on the jet and when we get home we don't want any outsider finding out you are a psychotic patient” Jace said. “And you have a lot of rivals in the fashion world,they could use that to their advantage” he added. Alex just sat down with utmost composure “I know that you don't have to say it,they wouldn't dare go against me, everyone is threatened by the power I hold” Alex black orbs darkened and he stood “Get some cleaners to the penthouse, I would be staying there and I don't need crowd we would go see my mom and siblings before the week ends” Alex added shifting his gaze to the window and Jace nodded and left the room. Alex got ready taking all of his important documents into his suitcase and left the room, he's been staying in one of his many islands in Toronto. Stepping outside the compound to meet Jace standing by the car,they got in and left to the airport. “This is going to be a long flight,did you get my drugs?”Alex asked Jace as they settled in. “Yup and the penthouse is ready” Jace replied.The jet took off and landed in one of the airport in los Angeles L.A. LOS ANGELES, USA Alex alighted the jet taking in a deep breath putting on a black shades,black buttoned up sleeve shirt and black pant looking sinfully hot!. A black SUV was already parked outside waiting for them. “Welcome back boss” the driver said opening the door and Alex got in with Jace. “So I got some models who applied to work with us, should they come over for the interview tomorrow?” Jace asked. “Yeah sure,I trust your judgement on that” Alex simply said going through his phone. A frown appeared on Alex face “ what the fuck!” he growled.A light knock on the door brought her out of her reverie, “ Ma'am, master Alex, has requested for your presence.” The maid informed.Debbie stood up immediately “ What's going on?” She asked, “ I don't know ma'am but a lady came in with master Candice” she replied.“ Alright, you can leave” She ordered and went into the bathroom to get a quick bath. Few minutes went by, Debbie is dressed in a simple green gown, matching her eye color. She looked conflicted between leaving her hair free or being parked in a bun. “ I've already wasted so much time, I could literally visualise the stoic look from Alex. I hate tardiness my ass” She deepened her voice to sound more like him, she giggled at how silly she was.She smacked her lips and smiled at her reflection on the mirror, her hair neatly combed and bouncing freely on her shoulders. She walked out of the room.“ What are you doing here? You're trying to make me feel bad about ignoring you, huh? You look so dishevelled. Even Candice,he lo
“ Is any of these part of the plan?” Debbie asked in a whispery tone, her eyes fixed on Alex as he looked outside the window.He turned to her direction, “ No, definitely didn't expect mother dearest arrive, she made such a grand entrance. ” his head rested back on the car seat.“ Where are we going to?” She whispered once more.“ It's just us in here, why are you whispering?” he questions a bit amused, “ We're heading to my home” he sighed heavily.“ She looks extremely young and beautiful but yet tough. I lost my ability to breathe as she spoke so firmly back there.” she shuddered“ Yeah, she's like that, I admire her secretly. But you have got nothing to worry, she's a sweetheart and you'd bond really well with her” He chuckled and Debbie released the tension she felt as a light smile graced her face.Fleet of cars lined up waiting to pass security, Debbie's face craned up wondering what the hold up was about, before her eyes was a giant wall, an impenetrable one. Her car was ne
“ Camile, I'm gonna thank him later. I'm feeling very uncomfortable in this dress, you couldn't find anything better for me to wear and if Candice sees me dressed like this, he might think I'm trying to gain his attention.” Kate tried reasoning with her.Kate couldn't keep her hands off it, the sorry excuse of a gown just left her milky thick thighs bare, it made her feel self-conscious of herself and against preying eyes. She's used to maxi gowns and skirts, that way people would pay less attention to the nerdy girl.Camile glanced at the sleeveless mini gown, with an exposed back “ You look hot babes” she complemented, “ Well, you've no interest in wooing my brother or any other male figure in this house. Let them think whatever” She rolled her eyes “ We're right in front of his room, a simple thank you would do and I'd drive you home” she shrugged, gesturing her eyes to Candice's room.“ What the fûck is this” She looked at her phone and then at Kate, “ I think I'm loosing my sigh
Debbie's eyes followed his movement, he opened the box and withdrew a ring, a piece unlike anything she has ever seen. It glowed so brightly and Debbie's eyes flickered at it immense beauty.Alex took her hand, placed the ring in her finger and caressed it “ It fits perfectly” they mumbled simultaneously and gazed at each other for a good number of minutes.He straightened himself up and leaned back on the seat, “ You understand that this has to be done, drastic measures calls for drastic decisions” His hands balled into a fist.Debbie subconsciously grazed the diamond ring, “ Yes, I understand” She answered firmly and glanced back at Alex's wears, a matching color to her gown, he looked handsome as ever with loosed buttons on his shirt.“Boss, we're here” The stoic driver informed through a see-through window in the car, he closed the window afterwards.They can already hear the murmurings, people whispering in anticipation to the guest that just drove in, nothing is visible to their
“ Cam, I thought I was dead” Kate uttered with quivered lips, her face etched in fear, Camile's arms wrapped around her as a means of comfort.“ I was scared to death, it was terrifying Camile” She cried profusely, her face all red and puffy.“ It's okay, everything is fine. Nothing happened to you, the doctor said you were in shock. Could you recognize anyone of ‘em ?” She asked.“ No, it was dark” she sniffed, “ it doesn't matter anyway, I'm just glad you're fine” she pulled Kate closer to her chest.“ Whose room is this?” Her eyes scanned the dark theme.“ It's Candice's room” Camile responded, “ He took you out of there just in time” She breathed out, her thoughts reeled on what would've happened if Candice didn't go back in.Kate sighed “ Why does he do it? He saves me and the next minute he acts like I disgust him, I don't understand” she muttered to herself.“ What did you say?” Camile looked down at her, their bodies entangled, “ I should thank him, he has been my knight in a
“ Candice, where's Kate?” Camile asked, holding onto his shirt. He sighed and she glanced behind him, her eyes caught Kate being carried by Thaddeus.She withdrew her hand and moved closer to the duo “ oh my God, what happened to her?” She quivered unable to grasp the mishap, her friend looked lifeless and stained in blood.“ We should get to somewhere safe” Thaddeus suggests, putting Kate in the backseat of Candice's car. They drove swiftly out of the school.Candice carried Kate in his arms and into his house, heading straight for his room “ I'll call the doctor” Camile informed. “ You can leave now, she's safe here.” Candice said curtly whilst shooting a glare at Thaddeus.“ I'm not leaving till she's awake” he retorted, “ Suit yourself but not in my house” Candice dragged him by the collar and pushed him outside.“ What happened?” Cole asked right after the drama, “ The hunters, they attacked and Kate encountered one of them tonight.” He responded.“ Shit! Is she badly hurt?” Sho
