"Excuse me for a moment." Avianna said to her husband and the high societal members he was with, "I will be back in a while.""Where are you going?" Ra held her hand stopping her from moving, "We have guests, you can't possibly leave now."She huffed before tiptoeing to whisper in his ear. He was much taller than her, "I have been watching Red for quite sometime and ever since she received that phone call she seemed a bit disturbed.""Oh!" He was worried now, "Should I come?""No, there wouldn't be any need for that." She said, "I will be back soon, don't miss me too much love." She kissed him on the lips before leaving and she could still feel his gaze lingering on her as she went.She smiled to herself a bit as she made her way through the thriving crowd in the ball room. They had thrown a party which they did annually inviting all the neighboring countries of different royalties and var

Splash!               He hissed in pain as the freezing water loaded with ice cubes met with his bare skin and making contact with his fresh open wounds.His tormentor released a sinister laugh obviously satisfied at his victim's anguish and flung another bucket of freezing water at him.This time Daniel yelled out not being able to control his pain anymore."Shut up!" Capri lashed him behind with the leather whip that had metal spikes in it that always pierced deep into Daniel's skin, "You sound like a dog!""I will end you!" He growled, "It's just a matter of time, just wait till I am free!"Capri held onto his hair with an iron gripped and yanked his head back, Daniel's scalp was strained, "That's if I let you walk out if here alive!" He whispered in his ear, "By the time I am done with you and I end your pathetic ex

The pounding on the door increased followed by muffled curses. Capri and Bina grabbed their guns aiming it at the door. Daniel sighed wondering who the hell that idiot was and hoping the person wasn't one of his men cause he knew it couldn't be Dane."It's suppose to break just like in movies." They all heard a frustrated groan, "Stupid door!"It sounded like the voice of a woman.Daniel strained his ears trying to decipher whom the voice belonged to but he couldn't and then came a hand bursting through the door."That fucking hurt like a bitch bite!" The intruder howled and then a leg too followed and it became apparent that she was stuck in her present position, "Can someone help me please!"Capri and Bina giggled and then they remained silent with their guns still pointed at the door.They watched as she moved her hand and located the doorknob. She twisted it and the do

No! That wasn't a gunshot, it should be a bomb, a grenade or a dynamite! Red tried to figure out what the deafning bang had been as she lay on the floor still strapped to the chair. She gagged and spat out the dust from her mouth.When the sound went off, it felt like the whole ground vibrated and the quake had sent them all to the floor as dust and smoke covered every where.She tried to see through the mist of dust and smoke but couldn't see a thing as she peered her eyes, straining them. It looked like walls had fallen around them causing rumbles but she couldn't quite tell."Daniel! Daniel!" She yelled as she tried to wiggle herself free from the bounds but there was no response, "Daniel! Are you alright?" Her screams seemed to be unheard.                     Daniel opened his eyes and it took him a while to recollect all that had happene

Lorenzo took long calm strides bringing him closer to them. He gazed at them with his glaring good eye, "What is wrong Grace?" He taunted, "You look pale, have you see a ghost?" He smirked. "No..." She tried to be calm, "I am just wondering why you are one eyed?" "Daniel did that to him." Hart said to her, "Instead of dying, he ended up one eyed." "Shut up Hart!" Lorenzo yelled in a fit of rage, "Keep blabbing and I will be sure to make your death slow and painful." "You are not killing my husband, you bastard!" Mrs Hart spat, "I wouldn't let you!" "I was a fool to let him live the first time but I also made sure to make his life hell." He laughed, "But now, I will be damned if I let him walk out of here alive. So, which of you shall I begin with?" He asked, "You?" He pointed the gun at Hart, "Or you?" The gun was moved to his wife, "Oh! I know! Let's play a game of shoot and dodge." "Leave Grace out of this, it's me you want." Hart pl
