"I will miss you." Red sniffed hugging Queen one last time, "I will miss you very much.""Me too." Queen sobbed loudly, "You come back again?""Yes, yes." Red nodded, "I will." She promised.Alberto and Daniel just stood aside with uneasy looks on their faces as they watched the crying ladies bid farewell to each other.                   Both women disentangled from their tight embrace and faced the men. Their faces were red and puffy from the constant whimpering and they looked morose."You sure you didn't forget anything?" Daniel walked up to his girlfriend and held her, "Could be long before we come back here again.""Do you have to remind me?" She scowled at him getting annoyed at his last statement."Okay, okay." He raised his hands up in defense, "I am sorry." He drew her closer and placed a kiss on

"Well! Well! Well!" Capri said in a sing song voice as he  walked into the office leisurely with his hands tucked in his pants pockets, "What a sight!" He eyed Red and Daniel as they struggled to put on their clothes,"Am I interrupting something?""Capri!" Red whispered low enough for her ears only, her heart growing cold, what is he doing here? Why is he here?"Who the fuck let you in?!" Daniel growled harshly at the unwanted and unexpected guest. He was done buckling his trousers now, "Why the fuck are you here Capri?" He moved and pushed Red behind him in a bid to protect her.They know each other? Red was stunned, is this what the press meant by being involved with the lorenzos?"Nice to see you again Red." He winked at her before taking a seat on the sofa paces before Daniel's desk, "I must say you have managed to keep yourself, your waistline is still

"You have got to wake up your majesty." Red felt a light touch and heard a soft voice. She knew instantly that it was her hand maid.Her eyes fluttered open and her gaze met the ceilings above making her to regret instantly as the designs were familiar to the ones at Daniel's mansion in Greece. It brought back memories that she had tried to forget over the past few weeks but failed to as every night she spent confined in her room, she was left to her memories and things that reminded her of him."The Queen specially requested you have breakfast with them today." Her maid Claudia said as she saw Red was awake, "She isn't taking no for an answer this time your majesty.""Claudia." Red sat up with a sigh, "Can you skip the formalities and just called me Red?" She pleaded of her maid again as this was not the first time."Sorry your Majesty." Claudia nodded, "You are the crown princess, heir to the throne and

       Mrs Hart hugged Daniel really close comforting him as he cried as though he was a kindergarten student. She rubbed his back trying to calm him down as he sobbed, "Let it out Dear." She said, "Let it all out."Dane just stood aside with folded arms watching them, "Would you quit crying like a baby?" He rolled his eyes, "We came here to talk not for you to sob.""Watch it Dane!" She frowned at him, "Have you guys made any plan yet?""Nope." He shook his heard, "Our lovely leader is here crying like a goat!""Have you ever fucking seen a goat cry?" Daniel raised his head from his mother's lap, "What the hell are you saying?""Oh that got you to stand up!" Dane shook his head."Stop it boys." Mrs Hart warned them, "Like I said, what's the plan?""We don't have one yet, mother." Daniel scratched his air, "The only thing I can think of

Daniel dragged himself out of the shower with his towel tied loosely around his waist. He looked like he carried the burdens of the world on his shoulders as he walked to his bed like an animal being led to the slaughter.He got to his bed and plonked down on it with a groan. He picked up his phone to check for messages or calls from Dane but only saw that of Capri's.                Capri had been bothering him for days now to know when they were meeting again. He hadn't relented even when Daniel ignored him most of the time and just as he was about the drop the phone, he called again.With a swipe, he picked the call and lifted the phone to his ear."Hello..." He intended his voice to come out as a threatening growl but it only came out weak and one could tell he was tired and nearing his end."Is that the best you can do?" Capri chuckled at his vo
