THE DESPISED SON-IN-LAW; Mafia Boss Heir Chapter 16: Out of the Woods
The ButlerWhen we got to the hospital we were lucky to find a willing doctor to help us. They were all leaving for their houses although they were not supposed to. The health facility was a 24 hours healthcare service provider. That however had changed with the impending destructive war getting closer to the towns from the city. Nowhere was safe anymore.It was no longer safe to walk on the streets at night alone and especially when one was a doctor or a medical personnel. The gangs and mafia groups were kidnapping them to go heal their fighters injured in battle since they couldn't bring them to hospital for fear of being arrested by the local authorities.I asked the other guards to wait outside as I stayed behind in the waiting room. Blake was in surgery. The doctor said he had lost a lot of blood and passed out due to excessive bleeding. My prayer was they found a match of his blood group in the blood bank. I didn't know any of his family members and the ones h

When he felt alive again, Blake was lying on the grass with his eyes shut. He could feel the bright light from the sun penetrating through his eye lids like two red hot patches covering his eyes. He opened them slowly and covered his face with the back of his hand. Sat up and behold. He was in the middle of a grassland, from afar he could see a house, smoke coming from its chimney. To have a clear view he got up on his feet. There was nothing familiar about that place in the middle of nowhere, no neighbors just cows and chicken, dogs and horses grazing.Something that was however familiar was a lady walking towards him with a young boy. It was hard to tell if the boy was his and the lady too but he walked to meet them halfway. And when they got closer he could tell who they were. His wife and child."Hunnie have you been having those episodes again" the lady said concerned."Am okay, let's go inside" Blake said looking around."I can call the doctor for you, you don'

The Wallace manor was busy as usual. The employees were going round the compound doing their chores. Others cleaned the compound, one was working on the hedges, another mowing the carpet green grass, picking litter and watering the flowers. Inside, the house keeper was dusting the antique but classy furniture in the living room. The cooks in the kitchen were preparing for lunch moments after serving breakfast.Outside. The butler was in the rubble of what used to be Blake's house a few hours back. He was trying to salvage anything of importance in there and honestly there wasn't much. He managed to get a few papers and deeds that seemed important. They were in a bag that he had hidden somewhere on the collapsed roof of the crib. Everything else was burnt to ashes. One of the maids came running."Mr. Wallace has requested for your presence in the manor" she said bowing."I'll be there" the butler said and kept rummaging through the ruble.When he raised his gaze the m

When Blake came round, again, he was tied on a tree. He raised his gaze and Tessa was seated on a chair in front of him."Welcome back Blake, are you willing to talk now?" she asked in an annoying, mockery voice that made him feel like his throat was getting dragged on broken glass."I'm not letting you kill my family Tessa!" He growled angrily trying to break free from the straps tied around his neck and abdomen incapacitating him."You had no problem killing mine, an eye for an eye sounds better" she said getting on her feet.She was all red. From her hut to her shoes and her bra. A stretch of her right arm and one of the guards gave her a gun. Tessa got closer to Blake and sniffed him, shut her eyes and exhaled shaking her head perhaps in disappointment. "You smell great as usual despite living in the bush like an animal. What happened to you?""I wish I could say the same about you. But you smell like death""You don't have to make it this hard. Tell

BlakeThe next breath I took didn't seem to leave my body. Instead I felt the same air, hot, being forced down my mouth and nostrils. My brains were pounding in my head and my heart thudding in my rib cage, I could feel it in my back. Bright light from the window hit me in the eyes and when they opened, a white ceiling was above me I couldn't turn my head and the bleeping noise was making my ears ache. My surroundings were strange and unfamiliar."Blake?" A familiar feminine voice called out. With a heavy tongue almost choking me out it was hard to speak, "can you hear me? You're in hospital. Let me get the doctor""Wait" there came a mumble, or it sounded loud in my head because she left her seat but I was lucky to grab her arm. She turned around and I could see her well. Anita. In the flesh, not dead, weird."Let me fetch the doctor, stay here" she said in a smooth velvety private school voice. I coughed and cleared my throat, my tongue felt lighter and came the re
THE DESPISED SON-IN-LAW; Mafia Boss Heir Chapter 21: Divided Wallace's
The mood in the Wallace manor was officially forlorn. The employees who saw the three members of the Wallace family alight from the SUV could tell from their faces. Others thought that maybe Blake was dead. But if that was the case then they were expected to be celebrating. Though married to their daughter they seemed to bask in the glow of his suffering. Enjoying every moment of it. Their bad mood could only be related to one thing. The visit to the police station."Someone get me a glass of water!" Gerald roared getting in the living room, he was mumbling inaudibly spitting and cursing.Gabriel went upstairs and Bailey took the seat opposite to where Gerald was seated with his arms spread on the arm rest, his head tilted back and his eyes shut. He was not having the best of days."What are we going to do about this Gerald, talk to me? Your silence is killing me" Bailey said."I don't know. Your idiot of a son is the reason were in this mess I don't know why you had

AnitaLike a mad bull, I angrily walked out of the hunt memorial hospital. Angry not because of Tessa's disrespect but because of Blake's blindness. However said love is blind had experienced it. Why couldn't he see past his nose and dick? Tessa was nothing like Blake. He was sweet and kind, gentle and friendly, smart, caring, humorous with a vibe like no other but she was just pure arrogant, disrespectful and annoying. Only physics could explain why they were together. Unlike poles attract.Enough of that. Before almost stumbling into the butler that busy evening, for the first time since we met with Blake, I asked myself that question that was a landmine waiting to explode, the one I had been avoiding. Why? Why was I doing all that?"Slow down there, you don't look well" The butler said slowing me down."Sorry, I have to go. My plan was to sleep over and watch him. I even asked the guy who brought me in the morning to leave now he has the love of his life and
THE DESPISED SON-IN-LAW; Mafia Boss Heir Chapter 23: The Plan&Reality Cheque
TessaDad was enjoying keeping mum and I curious. Since he pointed out he had a plan, ten minutes later he had not told us anything and we were almost emptying out glasses of the delicious Mango juice. None of us however seemed to be in a hurry to ask what the plan was. As long as he was punishing Gabriel I was happy and content."So, mum what happened to you?" I asked to end the long awkward silence. I could see a bandage on her forehead, similar to the one dad had a couple of days back and since Blake was not around who could have done that to my living hypocritical mother?"It's not like you care" she said and looked away twitching her mouth muscles. Something she did to show disdain. Now that was the version of my mother I was familiar with. Funny how the peace we made lasted for hours and it was not hard to tell who between us was pretending."I wouldn't ask if I didnt care""Let's just say your mother is ashamed to tell you Tessa" Dad joined in the conversa
