Tina's POV

‘Ding', my doorbell rings and I turn stretching lazily in bed.

It’s early, I think hoping the person would get tired and leave.

‘Ding, ping, ding' it rings insistently and blink my eyes open, sighing in frustration.

‘It's Saturday for Christ sake, can’t I sleep in peace' I roll over and sit up.

Ajax stirs beside me and I try my best to get up as silently as possible

Throwing a robe over my night gown, I trudge begrudgingly to the door.

‘Who's there, what do you want', I wipe sleep from my eyes and yawn again.

He person at the door clears his throat, sounding hoarse, ‘it’s Adam'.

I open the door quickly, surprise tainting my features.

‘Adam, what are you doing here, it's so early'.

I tighten the robe around and come out into the hallway, closing the door behind me.

My back resting on the closed door, I fold my arms and look at him through hooded eyes, I guess I was still bristling from his insult.

  • The Arrogant Billionaire's Redemption   Shoot to kill

    Simon' POVI had no time to make sense of it, before I was staring right at the face of her captor.I would have reached into the TV screen to tear his head off his body if could.He proceeded to rip it off her neck, dread filling me up as we were met with radio silence.I pushed to my feet, feeling helpless, our only connection lost’.‘What happened’, Ralph looked up from his drones controls,‘Was she found out’, he sounded alarmed,‘The clasp was forced open, it has to stay closed to maintain connection’, I remembered what the jeweler told me, my hands going through my hair as I recounted it.‘We just have to rely on the drones to find them’, Ralph said, going back to his controls. My phone rang soon after, the caller ID showing Wright,‘Check the news’, he spoke the moment I picked up, straight to the point, knowing we both had no time for pleasantries,‘Ok’, I replied him and the line went dead almost immediately,I was thankful to him, that he handled everything at Tr

    Simon’s POVI sat immobile, head in my arms as I waited for my phone to ring,The call from my mother was anticipated and yet I prayed it would never come, I stared, at my phone, then at the door, hoping all the measures I put in place would just be as a result of paranoia. I was well prepared for when Tina would disappear, I knew I couldn’t stop her,Although I found it difficult to accept, I also knew it was our only hope of finding our son. The moment I saw her stare ahead, unseeing with dead eyes I knew she had made up her mind and stopping her would be impossible, So I decided to place a tracker on her, without her knowledge of course, The moment my mother came in to speak with her I had made my way to a jeweler, Hiding a tracker, speaker and camera inside a necklace wasn’t meant to completed in just six hours in but with the right motivation even impossible becomes possible.

    ‘Oh sorry’, he giggled, ‘My mistake’, he looked at the scalpel in his hands like he was just discovering it’s presence,‘I’ll put this away’, he dropped it, kicked it with his foot, He shrugged his shoulders when it landed beside the chair Ajax was sited on.He dropped down onto the couch again,He cleaned his blood stained hands on the couch, painting baby blue a shade of red, At that moment Ajax’s count was up and his eyes slipped open, finding mine, I held his gaze, raising my hands to my lips for him to keep silent, hoping Adam would forget about him,Adam wrinkled his nose at the stain, like he hadn’t caused it, looking back at me.‘Tina, what else do I have to do to prove that I love you’, he stared up at me, and the speed in which his eyes moistened gave me a whiplash,‘I just killed a person for you, what else do you want’, I gave no answer, only looked pointedly at the rope around my arms and ankles then looked back up at him,‘No really, what more do I need to g

  • The Arrogant Billionaire's Redemption   Manic bloodlust

    It was probably Sarah’s screams that made her deaf to the ruckus coming from the bed room,But I heard it, distinct, the sound of struggle,Through blurry eyes, I saw the door burst open and Adam step out, he was brandishing my scalpel, bloodied to the handle,She must have heard the door bang, because her grip on my throat loosened as she turned to the sound,‘Adam, it’s not what you think’, she freed my windpipe taking her hands off,But it was too late, In seconds Adam was on her, he flung her from me and all I heard were blood curdling screams, squelching as he ripped into her flesh,I lifted my head, my chest heaving as I dragged in breath after breath,My mouth hung open as I took in large gulps of air,My chest racked with coughs, my throat sore and bruised from her hands.When my head no longer felt like foam and my chest no longer burned I came to seeing Adam holding Sarah by her long hair, He buried the scalpel into her repeatedly, stabbing wildly at her chest,

    Adam’s organs shut down as he slumped against Vik who pushed him to the floor,He looked up and smiled at Sarah who gave him a thumbs up.‘He was getting annoying don’t you think’, Sarah looked up at me as she walked to Adam’s still body,‘Tie him up outside’, she waved her hand at Vik and the punk idiot did as she said,He hang on to her every word, nodding stupidly and dragging Adam’s body out the door,‘Do you know what would make for a perfect story’, she wasn’t manic like Adam, she was just plain mad, Yet there was something about her, those tiny giggles, the way her shoulders went up and down as she laughed at knocked out Adam, that lipstick on her lips that looked just like blood, There was something about the way she got too close to Ajax that screamed crazy, ‘Sarah, wife of Mr. Simon Valero, saved his son from psychopathic kidnapper’, she stretched her hands in front of her, like she was picturing those headlines on the TV,She looked at my son again, her eyes shi

    My hand was inches from that reassuring weight when I got snatched away from it.My eyes burned with tears as he dragged me away from my only chance of escape, Realization hit me, that my borrowed minutes were over the moment I hit the couch,‘Why can’t you understand me!!’, he radiated pure rage, voice bellowing around the room‘I’m trying my best to understand you’, ‘Why can’t you show me the same courtesy’,‘You kidnapped my son, drugged him and tied him up’, I sat up, my blood boiling as I heard him talk like he was the victim, my tone matching is,‘And you expect my understanding’, my ears rang, my head hitting the back of the couch, violently as he slapped me,He walked to the TV snatching up my weapons,For a moment I thought he was going to use them on me and I shrank into the chair in dread,My ears rang still as the door to the room opened and another person walked out,Shock pierced through layers of dread, as I stared at her,‘I told you she was not to be tru
