His' Bait At The Park
[80] ||Hardie Morrison||I speed up and in no time, we arrived at the park, the same park I brought her to couple of months ago. It was just few weeks after we met. Arlington was a little bit surprised, well, it reflected on her face."I guess I did not see this coming..." She countered with a soft chuckle after. "Why did you bring us here?"I ignored her question and helped her undo her seat belt. "Come on." I said instead and hopped down from the car.She hopped down immediately after I did before I was able to turn around. "I can always help myself with the door, you should stop worrying over little things." She said as she shut the car's door behind her."Little things also matters, Arling." I told her in reply and hold her hand, and intertwined it with mine. "What did you want?" "I want… that." She pointed at the cotton candy not to far from us, wearing a wide smile on her face. The smile of hers that I did not want to miss, not now or ever.I’ve done so much wrong
His' Bait A break
[81] ||•Lincoln Shire•||The day has been kind of hectic for Charlotte and I, tailing and spying on other lords just to get want we want from them.Well, as usual, Charlotte was used as the bait to get to them. I must commend how much she has done in the nick of time.She made every thing much easier for me since they are things I can do and places I can't penetrate as a male, yeah .Retiring for the day, we decided to lodge the night in one of the suites around till the next day.I would have vouch for a clubhouse instead because there, I would surely meet with new lords but Charlotte had insisted we get a proper night sleep instead.Well, I have no other choice to obliging. We will just find a suitable suite for us after we are done with our drinks. •••"I think I need a break after this." Charlotte muttered before chugging down her last cup of wine. "This is becoming much more challenging than it ever was.""What break —?" I asked with my brows raised in questioni
His' Bait The same with her
[82] ||•Lincoln Shire•||"Welcome..." The hotel receptionist uttered, wearing a delightful expression as she smiled warmly at us.I'm not the type that smiles but I was kind enough to reciprocate it. Charlotte, on the other hand, just gave her a slight nod with a blank expression on her face. It's obvious that she's too tired for all of this, every thing about her tell it all."Two VIP..." I simply stated but the stare on her face tells otherwise, I need her not to say much before I understand her expression. "We'll just hop for any available rooms left, okay. As far as it's as comfortable as a home, we have no choice to it."She shook her head with an apologetic look on her face. "I'm sorry, Sir..." She muttered, avoiding eye contact with Charlotte and I. "It's just a room left, all other rooms are occupied for the night."Mere looking at Charlotte, she was not comfortable with herself as she scrunched her face tightly in displeasure. "Why...?" She requested with indifference
His' Bait Let her go
[83]"Isn't she the same with her?" I heard her asked all of a sudden, her voice was laced with outmost surprise or maybe shock.I raised my head up to the television's screen, trying to figure out what she was talking about. It was Ms. Roselle, that was her name, Hardie's mom. Why is she on the media all of a sudden? "She's the one, right?" She asked again, this time turning to me. "This is Hardie's mother." "Yeah." I nod in agreement, drawling my words. "I'm sure she is the one, she looks like her and the name too." "Why is she on the screen then?" Charlotte furthered, staring questioningly at me. I frowned at her question, we are both in the same room and she is the one who had informed me about this yet, she is asking me such a question? She's seriously unbelievable! "Were you not the one who just told me about it?" I return her question back to her. "And we are yet to listen to what she might have done." "You are right." She said sounding defeated but I did not really care.
His' Bait The New Beginning
[84]The sun dipped below the horizon as the fiery colours infused the sky above the sky above them, painting the perfect backdrop for the end of an era. As the crimson hues bled into the night, Lincoln couldn't help but admire the scene from the rooftop terrace if Hardie's lavish home.The cool breeze brush past them, bringing forth a scene of melancholy that mirrored the thoughts racing through Lincoln's mind. It was hard to believe that after all the hardship they had faced together, their journey was slowly screeching into a halt.Hardie, in his usual assertive manner, told Lincoln that he did not plan of letting him go anytime soon. Despite anticipation, the words slammed into Lincoln's chest like a brick wall, causing him to struggle for breath.Although, Lincoln had mentally prepared for such a confrontation, the reality was far more difficult to accept. Over the years, the two had become intertwined in a complex net of loyalty and betrayal, blurring the lines of their allianc
His' Bait Maybe, just maybe
||Hardie Morrison||Staring into the empty space, I puffed out huge smoke from my nostrils. Arrgh!Jamel. Jamel. Jamel.Gareth. Gareth. Gareth.I hate to hear those two names. Yeah, they weren't really opposing me but they look like they really are. To themselves though and I don't really care, maybe I do...Being a huge drug addict and a drug Lord, do I need to be bothered by some opposing drug dealers in states?But here i am bothered by Gareth and Jamel which shouldn't expected of me. They're just a threat and what again...? I don't even know but they keep getting into my way and it seems they are everywhere too.Maybe I should just strike the deal with them and then what happens afterward...?Get them outta my way, huh?Yeah, oh yeah. That seems like a good idea to me.They called for the deal and Yes, I'm striking it with them.Its either now or never!***"We are here boss..." Lincolnshire, one of my most loyal hangmen announ
His' Bait I'm backing out then
||Hardie Morrison||Trailing deeper into the heart of the dark passageway, it later burst open in a partially light blue hallway. A large clubhouse might fit in, maybe.My both hand in my pants pockets, I stood godly, scanning around the hallway. Just at the other end sat the two fuckers who actually thought it'll do them good by striking a deal with me, not a good deal though.Jamel Grayson. Gareth Sebastian.I hate to hear those name and now I'm meeting with them? But well, I have to do this.I scuffled towards them in my best intimidating look."Are you sure about this, Hardie?" Lincolnshire asked barely escaping a whisper."They want me to, do I have any other option here?" I asked back."Yeah. You could just back out and..."I cut him short. "And look like a weakling same as the two pussy faces tagged me?""Well..." He trailed off as we appear before Jamel and Gareth. Fuckers."Look who we have here." Jamel chuckled like he's cracking
His' Bait Don't strike first, watch their moves
"And if you aren't allowed to?"Jamel asked with a deep frown."I'm backing out then..." I said with a taunting grin.They both stared at each other in shock, clearly, they weren't expecting me to put them under condition.I can't just sign this deal with them without knowing much about it.And that says it all, they're bent on destroying me.Gareth was the first to recover from his shock. "You backing out?""Tsk, I never mentioned that." I said feigning annoyance."Or did I?""Wait, what! You never said anything?" Jamel frowned deeper, clearly in confusion."Did you hear something? Like what you aren't supposed to hear?" I prolonged my feigned expression."Hmm... But I thought I hear you said something about backing out." He said more to himself."Then you must be hearing things." I huffed in pretence."Well never mind." He waved it off, not knowing what else to say to defend himself. "Can you just sign now?""H-huh? I thought
