"Now how did I get out of here?" She muttered to herself then glanced at Fabiano who was still out due to the drug and it was only a matter of time before the drug wore out. She brought out her phone and quickly dialed Alejandro's number, at least he should have a plan on how she was going to get out. "Hello, I need... "Jasira, thank goodness you are okay." Alejandro's voice cut the rest of her words. She was silent for a while before she blinked her eyes wondering if she just heard Alejandro panic over the phone. "I'm... I'm okay." She said still dazed."Thank goodness." She heard him release a deep sigh which shocked her even more. She put the phone in between her neck and head and opened the door, glancing left and right before stepping out and closing it gently behind her. "I'm okay, I get the items but I really need a way out of here, you have a plan right?" She asked hastily watching each step she took so as not to alert anyone. "Alejandro?" She pani
The light went off and gunshots followed. "Shit! fuck," Fabiano yelled climbing off her. He rushed to the emergency switch and switched it on, the room brightened immediately and he rushed towards his weapons shelves. He grabbed his white custom-made pistol and filled it with bullets. He took a short glance at Jasira and hissed. "You bitch cause all this." There was no way he was letting her go scot-free. He cocked his gun, centered on her chest before firing the bullet but the sudden opening of the door made him lose focus the bullet hit her arm and a low painful sound left her mouth. "Alejandro!" He called shocked before a loud mocking laugh left his mouth. "So you are the one." He said in between his laugh as he raised his gun to him. "Yes shocked to see me." He answered glancing at bleeding Jasira on the bed. Fabiano traced his gaze and laughed. "She is so important to you that you left your mansion to fight me." Alejandro said nothing as he slowly rem
"Boss, you are losing a lot of blood, you need to get treated." Maxwell proposed choosing his words carefully to avoid fuelling his anger. Alejandro stared at his soaked shirt, he raised his head to glance at Maxwell and a headache was welcomed. He doesn't let it stop him from saying what he intended to say. "You need to go back to the club, get the document and the stone then burn it to ashes and make it look like an accident. We can't avoid making more enemies now." "Yes, boss," Maxwell said with respect as he quickly walked toward the car. "Maxwell," He called back. "Boss." He answered grabbing the door then glanced back at him. "Thank you." He was shocked for a while hearing that but he simply nodded and got in the car driving out at high speed. He needs to finish the job before sunrise. Alejandro groaned softly before he walked out trying not to limp in front of his guards, he could not let them see him as a weakling but it was becoming unbearable fo
"She is stable but has not woken up." Alejandro was already inside Jasira's ward before the doctor could finish her sentence. He stopped in his tracks seeing Jasira placed on a ventilator, she had a bandage around her head and another at her foot, and her arm. Something tugged at his heart so that it hurt so much, that he folded his palm tightly so he wouldn't grab his chest. "What happened to her?" He asked with his gaze still on Jasira. His voice came out low. "She lost a lot of blood and she is having conflict with her inner mind about waking up." "Specific date of when she is supposed to wake up." "It can be today if she responded to treatment or a week or a month and maybe a year." He snapped his head at her immediately, "What do you mean by that?" "I...I boss." "Get out." He thundered and she took to her heels immediately banging the door loudly on her way out not minding the patient sleeping in the clinic. Alejandro's gaze finally returned t
"I want to go back to my previous life, I want to leave here." The unseen weight lifted off her shoulders when those words left her mouth. Back at the club when she was on the verge of death, she promised herself that she was going to leave him alone no matter what. The eerie silence of the room surprisedly didn't choke her maybe because she was used to it. Alejandro was quiet and his face portrayed no emotion as usual or she was wrong because when she stared deep into his eyes. She saw a glint of anger missed with sadness, the anger she might believe but the sadness she must be dreaming. She used the silent opportunity to continue. "I can't do it anymore, every day I was scared here, of not being killed yet I stayed thinking that I could change you but that thought left my mind when you sent me to my death without an escape plan because of an ordinary stone and files." She stopped to catch her breath, her chest heaving a bit too much. She was on the verge of
Jasira had been discharged five days earlier after spending two weeks at the clinic. she was not in shape but she was really better than when Alejandro visited her. She hadn't seen him since he visited her at the hospital, her hand would consciously go to her lips anytime she remembered their kiss. That had been one of her wishes and it came through too bad it was too late. She knew he had avoided her on purpose but today, she was tired of hide and seek and was going into his room. It was 8 pm, he should be back by now. She exhaled heavily and left for his room. "May I come in?" She asked with a gentle knock but there was no reply from his room. "But he was back." She muttered to herself. She arched her brow in confusion. Doesn't he want to see to her to the extent he didn't answer her knock? She knocked again and sighed sadly when there was still no reply. Maybe she should leave then but she couldn't find herself to leave his door. She inhaled and exha
In a dimly red cold small room, a middle-aged man was seen kneeling with his hand tied behind him. His teeth clashed together, adrenaline rolled down his body. He feel extremely hot even when the room was so cold. "I'm... sorry." He muttered choking on his words, shaking visibly. He looked pale as a ghost. He could only stare at the shining black oxford shoes. he dared not raise his head to look at the owner. "I won't tamper with your goods anymore." A dark chuckle filled the room, it was shocking and terrifying. It scared everyone except the owner, then the man crouched to his level. His blue eyes filled with darkness as he stared at the shivering man on the ground. "What is my name?" The question threw the man off guard. "The... devil." "You messed with the devil and guess what, there won't be another time." He stood up and raise to his giant 6.5 height, he glanced at the shivering man on the floor. He doesn't kill by gun, the fear of him only kil
The cool breeze made Jasira shiver as she walked on the dark street to her house. It was two in the morning that she was done at the club and she needed to be home. It was not her first time walking alone at night but tonight it was dangerously silent, so silent that it sent a shiver down her spine and made her throat dry up. She wrapped her hand over her body protectively and rubbed her arm. It felt like she was being watched but each time she glanced back, all she saw was darkness and silence so she just increased her pace and in no time, she was home and locking her door. "Phew!' She breathed in relief walking wobbly to her mom's room. Thankfully she was still sleeping so she went back to her room and lay on the bed. Her mind reflected on the blue-eyed man. He look strange, he emitted a strange dark aura with that huge man beside him who looked scary. She exhaled and rolled to the other side of the bed, should she be scared of them? But how dare he? how could he
