He was awoken by the rustling sounds made by the bush accompanied by voices which seemed to be a little bit far away. He looked around the bush and realized he had fallen asleep while resting under the tree with Arturo who was still fast asleep on his shoulder. It was almost Dawn and he could see the whole place a bit clearly. He still felt the pain from the gunshot wound he had sustained on his left arm. He groaned as he looked at Arturo who was sleeping exhaustively with only his white singlet on. The voices came closer and closer and he woke up Arturo hastily. "Wake up, we need to move" He said to the little boy who was still wiping his eyes with his palm. "We need to move!" He ordered as he shook the boy vehemently. "I'm.. I'm.. so tired" Arturo cried with his innocent brown eyes staring at him "Can't you hear the voices? They're coming for us!" Eden said to him as he stood up from the ground "I.. I can't hear voices" Arturo said as he looked around the whole place in sur

They were all awestruck as they watched Eden walking towards them with the group of men who were cheering behind him. A little boy could also be seen walking beside him and Gabriel couldn't get his eyes off the boy. Alves turned to Ray who was now looking dumbfounded as he watched Eden walking with the men. "Now that's the special thing about him. He always returns" Alves said with a smirk on his face. Ray held the boiling anger within him as Alves spoke those words to him. He gritted his teeth and made a bump fist but he couldn't do anything. Ella ran to meet Eden as he stopped in front of them. She placed a palm on his cheek and touched his body. "No.. I can't believe this," She cried in disbelief "I came back" he muttered as he saw the emotions written all over her face. "Boss, your boy is back. We saw him at the entrance of the slum and we decided to walk him here" One of the men said to Gabriel. "You should be happy, boss" another one added. "Eden!!" Ella screamed as s

He adjusted the bowtie of his royal blue suit as he stared at his reflection in the mirror. He was looking so stunning that night with a neat high fade haircut which suited his handsome oblong face perfectly. The expensive blue suit he wore fitted his muscular physique which had kept the ladies gushing over the years. No doubt, he was really handsome, he thought as he smiled. He looked at his wristwatch and it was 6:35pm already. Without wasting time, he walked out of the room. He walked down the stairs with his black derby shoes making sounds behind him as he walked. Looking down the stairs, he could see Miguel, Pedri and Spider standing at the foyer. They were all neatly dressed in black suits and ties. "Where's Sara?" He asked as he walked to meet them. "She's.." Spider was about to speak when Sara rushed in to meet them. "I'm here, sorry I'm late" She said at once They all gushed as soon as they caught sight of her. She was beautifully dressed in a long nude color satin go

He grabbed the Ak47 Pedri was holding and walked towards the direction the men were coming from. As soon as he caught sight of them, he began to shoot at anything on sight. With bleeding arms and a rage filled heart, he shot at the men sporadically. He didn't care if he would be shot or not. He fired continually till the last man was down. He began to pant as everywhere became silent. He dropped the gun by his side and headed back to meet Pedri who was watching over Miguel. He saw Pedri sitting dejectedly beside Miguel's body which was on the ground. "Come on, we need to leave. We need to get him to safety" He said as he tried to lift Miguel's body from the ground "He's dead," Pedri said with a lump on his throat. Eden paused for a while. He turned to look at him and he shook his head in disbelief. He turned back to Miguel's body which was still lying on the ground. He tried to lift the body up from the ground but Pedri cried out loud; "He's dead!" "Miguel is dead!!" Pedri

He was awoken by the sound of their laughter. He opened the curtain on the window and saw them walking out of the house. He sighed and rubbed his palm on his face It was sunset and the whole place was a bit calm. He stood up and wore a white sleeveless top before walking out of the room. As he stepped into the living room, he saw that the house was empty. Everyone must have proceeded to the slum, he thought. He walked to the kitchen and grabbed a pizza which he ate as he walked out of the kitchen. He was about walking back to his room when he recalled the girl who had been brought captive by Ray. A thought struck him and he became curious to know what state she would be in at the moment. He walked to the passage and moved slowly to the room where she was kept. The door was shut partially and he opened it slowly. The door made a creaking sound as it opened and he could see her lying fully unclad on the ground with her hands tied to her back. Her dark long hair was covering her face a
