As the days passed, news got out about Eryx and Nova's marriage that was coming up. Every ear heard, and every mouth spoke about their upcoming marriage. The city was fully heated up, and they all anticipated the union of the two parties. But following that news came another news. It is very demeaning and dangerous news. “Breakfast is served,” the maiden announced as she placed the plates on the dining table. Nova walked, drooling from the sweet savour of the meal that was exposed before her. “It smells so great. I bet it tastes just as it smells,” she said, grabbing her cutleries as she comfortably took her seat. “You're really going to eat without me,” Eryx walked into the dining room, cleaning his hair with a towel. “You're going to put your hair into the food,” Nova said. “Oh come on, my hair doesn't kill anyway,” Eryx chuckled, giving her a peck on her soft cheek. Nova giggled softly. Eryx took his seat as well, grabbing the remote to turn the television on. “Where are
The whole crowd of paparazzi was thrown into murmuring and shock. They couldn't believe what Eryx had just said. Following the evidence they had, they could attest to the fact that Eryx’ mother was denied the right to an attorney. But his expression was filled with grief, and Eryx was skilled at lying and pretence. “Excuse me, sir. I'm sure you know how sensitive what you just said is?” Joseph asked as his eyebrows furrowed deeply. It was obviously a thing of shock to hear that a mother would try to kill her own child. “Yes of course. I can't lie with such sensitive issues,” Eryx sniffled as tears rolled down his cheeks. Eryx was very good at faking his tears, and it was unfortunate that the masses were about to fall victim of his tricks. “I'm so sorry, sir. If you don't want to speak, it's fine. We can actually leave this for another day,” Joseph sympathised with him. Eryx was so good at faking his tears that he could fool anybody he wanted to. Unfortunately, the paparazzi ha
A few minutes ago, Nova had been on the ground, shocked her nerves that Eryx had pushed her. She just couldn't believe it. Few days after a proposal and this is what she gets for trying to help him out. Her face hardened as she remained on the ground, trying so hard to get over the anger that surged through her nerves. She felt utterly disrespected, and unsafe at the same time. She kept pondering on the scenerio, trying to think of what she had done wrong to deserve such humiliation. Eryx didn't even care if she was going to hit her head on table which stood right next to her. He was just bent on getting away ftom her at that moment. “Maybe Zephyr is right,” she muttered. The words Zephyr said to her began to replay in her head. She found herself thinking deeper into what Zephyr had told her about Eryx. The words of Zephyr to her after Eryx was arrested. “Eryx isn't to be trusted,” Zephyr's voice echoed. She quickly recalled to fact that she didn't answer him when he aske
Eryx stopped the car right at the bridge where it was announced that his mother had jumped off from. They quickly got out of the car, rushing towards the bridge as Eryx held onto Nova's hand. Murmuring, groaning and honking of car horns filled the air, creating an uneasy and noisy scenerio. Eryx and Nova couldn't find there way around, and traffic was beginning to build up at the scene. “Excuse me!! I need to get through!” Eryx telled, tryjng to create a passage way for himself. “Let's just go back,” Nova insisted. But Eryx wasn't ready to do so, he peristed and kept looking for a way to get to the rail of the bridge. Meanwhile, Zephyr stood at the rail of the bridge, glaring into the water, devastated and broken. He couldn't believe what had just happened. Tears rolled down his cheeks, flowing like a stream of water as his heart yearned to be relieved of such pain. It felt like his world was beginning to crumble upon him, and he couldn't help himself from drowning with it.
Zephyr's nerves boiled with so much fury as he glared at Eryx. It just seemed like the police were not there because everything within Zephyr just wanted to beat Eryx to a pulp. He was tired of having to sit down and watch Eryx get away with virtually everything. But judging from the scenerio, this wasn't a perfect time for that. Zephyr quickly freed himself from the grip of the police, adjusted his shirt properly, and walked out of the scene immediately. “Yeah, run away. That's all you always do,” Eryx yelled. But Zeohyr paid no attention to his yelling. Meanwhile, preparations to process a funeral for the late Mrs. Lockwood had already begun. Her corpse were taken to the mortuary, and everyone left the scene, retiring back to their daily activities. “What are you going to do? You need to go back and prepare for the funeral,” Nova wrapped her hand around Eryx’ arm, leaning softly against his shoulder. “Just go home. I'll take care of myself,” Eryx replied. “I can't leave yo

Eryx dragged himself back home, utterly exhausted by the day's activities. He found himself wallowing in a pool of thoughts. He had a lot of things in his mind, and a lot of problems that needed solving. But all these were beginning to wear Eryx down. He kept pondering on the deal he had with Don, the Mafia boss. It was progressing gradually anyway, but these activities might tend to affect its progress. After so much turmoil, he managed to escape dying in the hands of the Mafia boss, and definitely, there was no going back to such a condition for Eryx. He smirked softly as the thought of his mother's death flashed through his head. He wasn't mourning about her death. All Eryx was concerned about was to turn the tables and male use of the situation to his own advantage. His eyebrows furrowed deeply as he delved deeper into his thoughts, completely zoned off from everything that was happening around him. “Eryx!” Mova snapped her fingers, forcing Eryx to jerk back to reality. “
Nova slowly stood up from her bed, sneaking with the tip of her toes towards where the sound was coming from. As she inched closer to Eryx’ room, the sound became louder, increasing with every step she took. “Yeah…ahh,” she heard Eryx moaning, following the screeching sound of the bed. “Eryx!” Jane's soft moan followed. Nova gasped in shock as she remained fixed at the spot. She found it hard to believe what her ears just heard. She listened closely, trying so hard to convince herself that it isn't what it sounds like. But it was obvious. Jane and Eryx were both having an affair behind her back. Her heart tore into shreds as tears streamed down her eyes, following the throbbing pain in her chest. She couldn't believe Eryx has been playing her for a for all this while. She knew there was something more to Jane and Eryx’ relationship, but her trust for them blinded her all this while. Nova couldn't take it any more. She quickly rushed to her room, buried her head under a pill

She asked him after he had finished speaking.You are going to stay here Willow, you can't go out, you can't try to run away, neither can you act smart, No cell phone. He spoke with a stoic face. He was damn serious, he had no plans at all but he hoped time moved he would know what to do.You are joking right, what do you think this is?Some movie or what. I can't stay here Kevin, I am getting married and I need to do it fast since you destroyed the last one…..She couldn't even continue as Kevin threw something in anger. But not at her, You are not getting married Nova over my dead body. He said, I would rather burn in the pit of hell than let you get married to someone else. After saying that he made his way upstairs leaving her there. He didn't want to continue to hear whatever she was saying because it only made him look like a bad person.

It started after we had a fight, Kev. Alex was the person here for me and we fell In love. She said to him when deep down she knew it was a lie.She blinked more than usual, like she could blink away the sting behind her eyes, and every now and then, she’d look down at her hands, fidgeting.Why lie to him, Alex interrupted behind her. Kevin was his friend, yes. But that wasn't going to stop him from getting what he wanted, what he wanted wasn't Willow,but was the benefit that came with it The merger with one of the most popular tech companies in the world as well as multiple sponsorship and partnership that would help his company seer high and help build his name around the globe.Alex was a kind of person that only cared about wealth and luxuries, women were not part.

“Don't you know how to do your damn work. Eryx yelled over the phone. You know how much this deal means to me and don”. He said, referring to an underground boss.“I….I am so sorry sir. I am going to fix this”. A timid voice behind the phone panicked.“You fucking do that. Or else your wretched mother won't make it to another day”. He threatened without mercy nor without a flinch in his face.As soon as he finished talking, he slammed the phone to the floor. “FUCK, FUCK”. he yelled out. This wasn't the plan. Why was the business having problems in his tenure? The only thing he did was gamble a little. How did it end up affecting him? He thought In silence.But maybe he should have asked himself what he gambled or his condition of gambling. He gambled into partnership with the Mafia.He remembered vividly how it all played out. At first he was boasting about how good he was at these games and how no one could beat him. Even the don. “If I lose I will give up the Lockwood, holdings and
