Chapter One "Let me go, please" a lady pleaded as she was dragged forcefully by some masked guys"Shut up! Who told you it's safe at night, especially for ladies like you? A hefty masked man dressed in a black jacket and trousers with red shoes stepped in and yelled loudly. The man has a large deep old cut on his face which gave him this dreadful look. He had this red hat above his scattered black hair. In his hand, lay a short cigarette which he has been smoking since."I'm sorry, but please just let me go, I promise not to be late again." She replied trembling greatly with fear."Everyone leave at once and Pablo, get me Moon" He growled. The boys left immediately as if their lives depended on it.Pablo, stood there trembling in fear. "And what's with you? The hefty masked man from earlier asked."Stone! You know how callous and ruthless Moon is, he may have my head if I knock on his door without notice," he replied facing downwards, shivering.Stone gasped and dialled a number. "Y

Picking up her disturbing land phone, Stacy sluggishly placed it on her ear."Hello" she mouthed slowly"Babe! I've been calling for ages, what happened to your phone? I had to go to my contact book to get this damn old number." Her best friend sounded concerned from the other side of the phone."Are you sick? You didn't even call me to tell me that you won't be at work today, I was patiently waiting since morning but I perceived something to be wrong when I didn't see you throughout the day" she breathed out."Bethany, I'm sorry, I haven't been myself since yesterday" Stacy replied slowly. " I'll make it up to you, I promise" she whined."No need, I'm already at your doorstep, come open up""What? Stacy rushed out, opening the door. She saw Bethany In front of the door."Hi", she greeted and got her way in while Stacy followed suit.Bethany slumped on the fluffy couch, picked up the remote and switched on the TV. "Good morning Stacy, jeez! You look worn out and pale. What's popping? S

Stacy started struggling to free herself, making petty noises as tears trailed down her face. Seeing a masked person wasn't what she expected or wanted again"Stop," the person said and removed his mask. She gasped when she saw her CEO, Jason and immediately stopped her struggles. Jason released his grip from her as she held her mouth scared.The thug from earlier passed them, still looking for her. The two stood still to avoid making noises that would attract the thug. After 5minutes straight, when it seems like the thug had gone far. Jason shifted from the girl and dipped his hands in his pants pocket as he heaved."I thought someone would have learnt her lessons after "such experience," He said, looking quite angry as he got rid of imaginary dust off his cloth."I didn't know when... Emmm... I thought I had more time... The work was..." She was still stuttering when he cut her off."Breath in and out, calm down" He assured. Stacy breathed in and out and suddenly became calm.Her face

Knock! Knock! Stacy got no response. Knock Knock! "Urgh!" She gasped and moved in seeing that the door was opened.Jason can be seen lying down, facing the window. The room was dark. Stacy's finger trailed the wall and she switched on the lights. She quickly dropped the meal she was carrying and went straight to the bed. She sat beside Jason, staring at him closely.His eyes were closed. He lay down comfortably and smiled. "Jeez! What's that?"Stacy gently lifted her right hand to reach his face which she has been admiring since she sat there.She let out a smile, gasped and moved her hand towards his face. Immediately, Jason caught her hand with his eyes shut.Stacy's eyes widened and she watched in awe. "like what the?"He scratched his head and gently opened his eyes. He creased his brow and asked" what are you doing here?""Emmm, I came to drop your lunch, it's... L...unch time, isn't it?" She chuckled nervously."Oh really? It seems like I can't even have a proper sleep in my o

Jason observed her countenance but uttered no word. He turned to his phone, acting all engrossed with it.Stacy got in and sat down with dimmed eyes and a saddened look. "Could you please take me home? I'll like to verify something" Jason watched her with an expressionless face and asked "where? "Home" she mumbled. Oakson Alley" Jason turned to his steering wheel and moved away from the area. Oakson Alley appeared lonely and the chirping of birds could be heard. A tall tree stood above a bungalow with its branches dancing to the breeze. The breeze made sizzling sounds as the leaves rustled. Stacy stepped out of the car and ran towards the bungalow. She got to the house and knelt on the stairs, in front of it. The place was mercilessly wrecked, the door was knocked out and the windows were broken. The roof had conspicuous holes. She managed to lift herself from the stairs and rushed into the house. The appliances were broken and scattered all over the living room. She was bewildered b
