When they got to the bar, they took their seats and the bar attendants came over to them to ask what they wanted. "Lemonade," Alex said, "Cocoa pine," Josh added and the bar attendant left to get their orders. The masked guy was at the corner watching the two. He felt there was something different about how they behave now compared to before, not that he has a problem with it. "They seem to understand themselves now, it's a good thing," he murmured to himself. The bar attendant brought their orders and placed them on the table and went away. Alex sighed, something she had wished for had eventually come through. It looked like Santa granted her her prayer request. She hoped that her newfound relationship would not be disrupted. "So tell me, Miss Coker, everything about yourself."Josh addressed her by her maiden name, making her look single. It was part of starting afresh. She knew she was not single but married and for the sake of wanting to know more about

Luke stared at his phone, it has not been long since he made payment to the Grey and he is expecting the result soon. He chewed on his lower lip and rotated to and fro on his seat. His grandfather came in without his notice. The old man was aware that he had made payment to the guy he met earlier in the day and had made a plan to sort things out on his own. "Luke, dear."He called out and Luke looked up at him and managed a smile. "Grandfather, you are here, please sit down."His grandfather sat down as he was told. "Luke, I want you to accompany me to a place.""Sure grandfather, anytime you are ready, I am ready.""That's great. We should leave now because it is a matter of urgency." The old man said and stood up."I will be waiting for you outside"He said and left. Luke sighed and stood up. Why would he not be angry with his grandfather because he has done more than enough, therefore, he would be the good grandson he has always been in his presence. He checked hi

It was time for Josh to show his wife what he meant earlier since she misunderstood his words. Maybe she would understand actions. Josh bent down and captured her lips, Alex did not hold back and opened up wholly to accept him. It was not her first kiss though because she had had several kisses with Luke but that was all, she never allowed him to go further, maybe because her soul had seen that Luke was not for the keep so she had rejected Luke. Her first boyfriend was Luke and she is glad that after so much temptation to get down with him she never did, after her break up with him, she thought maybe it was one of the reasons he had broken up with her with no second thought. There was no need to dwell in the past because Luke is her past and Josh is her future and Josh is the only one worthy of thinking about. She pushed every thought of Luke at the back of her mind and locked it then threw the key away. His thoughts will never surface in her mind again. She tasted so good, Josh

Alex sighed and snuggled against him. She was home after all. Josh is her home. As long as she lives, she would continue to be grateful for facing her fears without doing otherwise. Sometimes in life, taking risks is everything because if you fail to take risks, you are risking your life. Whether you take risks or not, it is still risky so to be on the safer side, take risks as much as you can, even though you might fail, and try again until you are there. "You know that evening you bundled me into your car. What I have planned to do to you if I was freed. You are lucky, I fell into the circumstances your Grandfather set up, if not, I would have beaten you to a pulp."She said, wrinkling her face. Josh chuckled, "I wondered where your power lies because anyone seeing you will think you would not do more than a dead rat. Anyway, you could have pushed or little of that but beating me to a pulp, I doubt so." Alex could not contain the laugh she had been holding on since, she burst into

Mr. Jackson was staring down at his daughter who was seated opposite him looking so unbothered. She has been forced back to GreyWave and she was not happy about it and worst still, her phone has been seized from her father who would not listen to her pleas. "Stacey Jackson, I don't know how you manage to get to Miami. I asked you to come home in peace but what did you do? You would rather destroy the hotel before coming home in your quest for revenge. When will you understand that sometimes, you don't always get everything you want, all things are not meant for you." "Dad, I don't have a thing to say to you but you don't expect me to fold my hands and watch that gold digger take my man away. Even if I don't get her now, I will get her later and I tell you, dad, you would not be able to stop me."She snapped viciously. Mr. Jackson sighed and shook his head. His daughter would never learn. Locking her up and removing every access to the outside world might calm her down for a while.
