The imminent day
Asher paced about with his hands swinging from left to right. He stopped for a while, yelled anxiously, and continued to dial the number again. This early morning, the shareholders were tipped off about last night’s incident owing to the media’s influence, and very early, they threatened to pull their funds away. On hearing this, Asher’s hair stood straight while his fist balled together as he overheard their assumptions. Pretty right and said! Like how he assumed they would think!
They did not even wait to hear the full story and quickly threw all the blame on him.
"Olive, think about it; the shares are dropping fast." Asher cried painfully as his legs trembled on the white tiles. In front of them was Macerio, lying half unconscious on the bed, and then the beeping sound of the machines. "I failed him."
Still in the hospital,Once Levi was out of sight, Asher slumped onto the chair, balled his fist, and mumbled some words out of his mouth. He recalled all that Levi had said from the beginning to the end, and his head focused on the number of zeros in a billion dollars."I am sorry, but you are not worth it, Macerio. Besides, you never treated me fairly; why should I do the same for you?" An unexpected feeling of anger surged through him as Asher walked closer and closer to Macerio’s body. He smirked and rolled the cord, which connected all his breathing tubes to the socket. Thoughts ran quickly through his mind, while some little voices ringing in his head urged him to cut off the wire.‘Cut off the wire.‘End his life.
……………Meanwhile, In Ace’s House.Ace tossed around the bed with his arms stretched out while looking for Laura on the bed. When he did not find anyone, he groaned and sat up on the bed. His eyes fluttered open to see an empty bed with himself on it.‘Come on, Laura, you could not even wait for me to get up before running away. Groaning once again, he stood up from the king-sized bed, put on a white silk shirt, and headed downstairs. Due to his blurry eyes, he skipped a step and fell. Ace cursed, stood up, and headed st
‘Bang!’ Ashley’s Point of view, The loud sound of a shooting gun caused my ears to tingle. I heard the noise repeat as the sound became loud as it approached. My sluggish, tired eyes gradually opened as they met with darkness. A terrible pain set in my head as my eyes scrutinized my surrounding. Where am I? Those words came to my mind while I tried to get my hands close to my eyes. My heart thumped louder and faster as I couldn’t reach out for both of my hands, as if it was handcuffed. My raspy and hoarse throat attempted in calling for help, but be that as it may, it did not produce any audible sound. I shook my head still managing the tremendous ache that occurred in my head. I had no idea where I was, or how I got here. My head was blank of my surroundings. ‘Bang!’ I heard the same loud noise coming closer to me with a more violent sound but this time accompanied by whispers after every shot. I struggled to set myself free nevertheless, m
“Dispose of them” My head kept those words on repeat while I shivered thinking my death was near. ‘What if I was one of them to be disposed of’ I silently mourned my demise. As far as I was sure of things, I hadn’t accomplished any future ambition that laid in my list of wishes and more so, I just graduated from college. My father and mother were badly ill and my brother needed money to finance his unpaid debts. All of the burdens fell upon my fragile head and I so much wanted to choke to death when I think about them. We were neither blessed with riches nor lived in extravagant mansions. I came from a very poor humble background. But Anyway, I still survived and I am pretty much alive. Moving forward, I watched him breathtakingly as he dragged up a girl, who sat a few miles away from me, and caressed her face. He passed the gun onto the other guy standing there. The man on his left went by the name Rick and the other, Alex. Looking at them, I was curious to know the
Ashley’s expression did not seem like one with any weakness nor any sign of giving up as her legs carried her farther away from the warehouse. The more she ran, the more her chance of escaping from this unexpected death became broader by the second. She jumped over the stone, hissed, and cursed as it left her skin exposed to the cold breeze. She swerved into a narrow street, bent over, and breathed out. Only a few miles from here, she’d be safe especially when a police station began in the city. She focused her mind on one thing and that in particular, was having herself whole and after this, getting justice for those in their captives. Her mindset changed and once she breathed in sufficient air to help her progress in her running, she continued. Ashley’s running slowed by every minute as a result of the open large cut on her ankles. Ashley paused as she cornered along the Neel Street up ahead, and took a break.“I saw her go this way!”Another voice broke Ashley into pieces as stor
Alex managed to speak as he helplessly examined his intestine, which had been brutally marched to pieces a while ago. The pain as a result of the hole that formed in his stomach increased. He hissed and roared hurtfully“Then tell your little master to hurry up. Time is thinking, and truth be told, screw you and your damn asshole boss!” Nathan responded, not caring who this boss was, and swirled his head to the side to see how Ashley was firing. When he saw she was fine, he picked up Alex’s hands and laughed.“Now go before you truly know my capabilities.” That was his last warning, as he seemingly let Alex run off in a painstaking manner back to where he came from. Ashley glanced shyly at the man, who did not seem bothered that he had removed someone’s large intestine so ruthlessly, and turned her head to Rick, whose shoulder blade was dislocated alongside some part of his arms from the rest of her body. Ashley stood dumbfounded about what to say and then, he spoke“Follow me
“Screw you!” Ashley hissed in his face. For some reason, she did not feel scared when having deadly close contact with the dangerous man.“You see, that is my word and only I am allowed to screw females’ asses, you understand?” Nathan bluffed air into her nose, stood up, and turned his back. “Again I ask and this time no more diversion. Who are you?!”“I am Ashley…….”“Who?!” He sat on his throne demanding for her to increase the volume of her voice.“Ashley Williams. I was born in Australia. I am half Australian and half American, actually, from South America. I just turned twenty-Two, last two months, and I work part-time. What else do you need to know?” “Um, not bad at all but damn, twenty-two and you are still a fucking virgin? Quite cooperative though. What were you doing with those gangs this late at night? Why did they want you so badly?” Nathan came to the real interrogation, why she was being chased by those men? He patiently waited as Ashley cleared her raspy voice a
Her thin lips moved out from words out of her mouth. Ashley nodded and feigned dumbness. ‘Was this some kind of trail again? Was Nathan not contented with the responses she gave a while ago’ Ashley skeptically examined the woman from head to toe. A scary aura she possessed proved she was not an ordinary worker in this psycho agency rather, someone who occupied a higher position. Ashley cleared her throats and went ahead in using her words. “Tell Nathan that he is an asshole for molesting me! I won’t let him get away with ease” “Then I apologize for his nudity acts on you. He is always like that. I am Laura and you are…… Ashley right? The Australian lady?” Laura smiled having her teeth perfectly displayed at the same time. Amongst all the people Ashley had met today, Laura considerably seemed okay and nice than the other ones, she gave her compliments. In fact, Laura had some stunning attributes that made Ashley drool over her and one of which was her excessive dominatin
