Rather than sleeping, Charles and I sat still, pondering on the situation at hand. We couldn't come up with an answer as to what went wrong that day. Charles looked confused as hell, everything I've said including my meeting with Tony was no solution as we thought, rather it went further to confuse us. Am starting to think this is too much for us to handle, however I have to get to the bottom of this matter what it cost me.
There are so many variables and we seem to have exhausted them all. I mean, two trades went down in one year, and then there's the smuggler, there's also the fact that Alpha Max was aware of all these happenings yet he did nothing about it and finally, the safe. The safe which seems to have vanished into thin air and the code that unlocks it rests with someone whom father trusted more than he did us.
"Come on, Diana. This doesn't make any sense to me. Why did father host two trades in one year. That was certainly out of character for a man so ar
No, it can't be possible, we had a discussion just yesterday so when did this happen, what went wrong. Reporters and the police had surrounded the house, the siren from the ambulance echoed everywhere and the pungent smell of blood covered the air."Diana, let's go, we need to get you out of here." Charles has been supporting me since we got here. My legs got weak immidiately I set eyes on Tony's lifeless body lying on the cold floor. Apparently, he was murdered that same night, I had tea with him. Someone was definitely following us that day. I'm even more curious about this entire situation.I couldn't even form a coherent sentence due to shock, I feel partly responsible about Tony's death. If anything, he'll probably still be alive if we didn't have that meeting. I didn't think that Tony would die right after I left him that night.This place isn't safe, he wasn't kidding when he said information about our whereabouts leaked.This is clearly a war
Although it's a little late at night, we are wide awake trying to put our heads together shortly after Charles and Jasper returned. The four of us are seated in the living room and discussing the problem at hand. The clue Charles found was a note, folded and discarded right next to the corpse. Tony had tried to hide it before he died. The rough cursive was proof enough that it was hurriedly written. Forensics and detectives determined this.We've lost so many people already, and all of them were victims of this same lunatic, whoever he was. The fact that he's trying to get rid of the evidence is proof that we're on the right path, if only the craftsman was alive, we'd find out immediately what was inside the box, but doesn't that mean we can open the box without the key. Oh, we've tried that before, apparently it's not easy to bust open either, meaning that box was practically made of some pretty good materials, and the brothers trying might damage what is in the box with
We eagerly sat on the couch and played the footage, our mouths widened in surprise. It is crystal clear to us what happened on that day. The box was switched. No wonder I felt something was off about that box when I saw it, and that's why the craftsman was killed, that box was clearly a fake. The real one was taken away by the spy but he can't access what's inside because he doesn't have the key, that must be why he was following us. However, we too don't have it and have no clue as to who's in possession of it. "So the item inside the box must have been what poisoned father."Allen said."But then, why didn't he get rid of it? If the spy was working for the other Alpha's it just proves that they were trying to kill him."I say. However, there's nothing to prove that they had something to do with this. It would just make us seem like we were blabbering without any evidence which isn't good. The only good thing here is that I've finally proven my innocence after ten years.
I couldn't hold on much longer, this guy weighs a ton. Although I managed to stop him, I'm just holding on to a tiny part of his shirt. He's still dangling on one leg and pulling him is proving difficult. My eyes are tightly shut at the moment because the last thing I want to see right now is someone die right before my eyes when I can do something about it. For someone who is tired of life, he has been paying a lot of attention to his food."Diana."He knows my name. How is that possible? I open my eyes slightly and peek through my eyelashes once again, my eyes adjusting to the brightness as I try to get a proper look at the jerk who tried to take his life.
I'm confused, frustrated and speechless. "Diana did you find him?"When I arrived at the penthouse, I could see how worried Charles and Allen were. We've had sleepless nights and that idiot was out there thinking of how to jump off a bridge. I nod at their question and head straight to my room, I could still hear their chattering from outside. I didn't leave a good impression, however I'm glad they got the gist.Two whole hours and still no sign of Jasper. I'm seated in bed. Even if I wanted to sleep I couldn't because my mind is not at rest. He better not be out there doing stupid things. I knew I should have followed him. So much stubbornness in one person. He better not be trying to jump off another bridge. I knew it. I should have gone with him. I quickly grab a coat to run outside when suddenly, the door breaks open.From where I stood, I could smell the stench of alcohol all over the room, it's so strong that I'm feeling tipsy and I didn't even dr
We stayed in this position till morning, and now am more conflicted than ever, I can't leave him like this, seeing him in this much pain just hurts my heart, am not happy seeing the one person who stood by me this hurt. Untop of that, my hearing aids are both broken because he had stepped on it, I can't believe I have to remain deaf all day, this might actually drive me insane, the silence of the room, Jasper's warm embrace and a feeling I can't shake off. I used to ask myself what I was to him, but now am more than certain that am someone special, this has been a wish of mine for a long time, but why now, why now, when I have Charles, why now when we've parted this far.My hand has been contiously combing through his hair his soft silky hair. I could feel his body move as he twisted and turned, it's obvious he was waking up. I can't deny it though, I had noticed his feelings ever since the problem with Charles got solved. I didn't think it was really serious though, I didn't
Sigh. I've never felt this lonely, well not since my parents died. It's been an entire week since we returned, and it's been quite lonely for me. Daisy and aunt Hailey are yet to return, however I haven't had a chance to get to see a glimpse of the brothers so far, they've been busy having all sorts of meeting concerning the situation, not just that but I feel like my cheerful Charles is gone for good but still the memories he left behind are still very fresh and clear, I can't recall him always wearing a poker face as he did now, rather he was quite funny and enthusiastic never missing a chance to mess with me or someone else, but now he's hardly made eye contact with me ever since we returned and I don't know what to do about this. I thought all he needed was some space, since he's been busy all through, and since all the seven brothers united once again I thought the work pressure had increase ten fold, it was pre
Daisy seems disturbed by something, she's constantly shaking and closing her ears, well, it's not like I can hear anything but right now she looks like she's afraid of something, that look in her eyes I can tell she's panicking. It seems like she's calmed down now. She rushes up to me, grabbing my hand and pulling me away from the window when the glass suddenly shatters, I bury my face in fear and wait for the shattered glass stopped falling, Daisy tapped me and try to calm me, and just then I find a bullet on the floor, it's still hot, it was then that I realized that we were under attack. She pulled me close to the corner, just then rapid bullets came flying through hitting the door non stop. Someone had just tried to kill me, wait but then what about the others was that the reason Hailey ran down, without a doubt, it was obvious we were in danger. What is going on, why are we under attack, no, why am I targeted, a lot of people's life is at stake here, I wonder how everyone is ho
