Zia had woken up but she lay there, on the bed as she calculated in her mind how she would face the General, not after the steamy session they had last night. Zia blamed herself for letting herself be attracted, what would he think of her now, a loose woman who isn't able to contain her desire!Slowly she opened her eyes and glanced at the chair he had slept at the first night she had been there, but it was empty. Her eyes darted across the room, no sign of him. She shot up from the bed immediately, maybe they were yet to return from their operation.At the same time a knock came in through the door. She opened it only to find a soldier waiting impatiently." You are late?"" Late for what soldier?"" Didn't the General inform you, your training begins today. You better get ready in two minutes," the guy said and shoved a pair of uniforms at her before he turned around and left." What's with the attitude?" Zia asked more to herself as she took off her clothes and entered the bathro

The morning sun had cast beautiful rays through the curtains, landing on the bed that Zia had slept on. By the side was the General, dozing off for a second before he got up again. He couldn't sleep no matter what, he had stayed up all night long watching over her.Zia slowly gained consciousness as she held her throbbing head. She tried to get up, but she felt a strong headache attack her once more that she clenched her teeth in pain. It got worse, deafening sounds playing in her ear that she let out a high pitched cry, holding her head with both her hands. The General got up startled and rushed by her side. Her eyes were shut, but seemingly in deep pain. He tried to hold her, but she was screaming so loud that he had to get out immediately to get help.A doctor had almost knocked on the General on his way in." Doctor what could be wrong with her?" " I'm not sure, but we need to check up on her immediately. If you please get out of the room General," the doctor said but it seemed

A week had passed since Cai's burial. While the General returned to the camp, Zia had set in motion her plans. It was almost noon, when she sat by the window in the penthouse, with a perfect view of the city. This was one of the property that only she and her father had known about. The two would usually escape the stressful atmosphere back at home. At times they would make up a story of being out on a trip, while in truth, they were just in town, getting to enjoy the peaceful life away from everyone.The penthouse had three bedrooms, expensively furnished, with white and blue leather seats, matching curtains and expensive chandeliers hanging in the middle and on the corridors to every room.The house had been well maintained for the entire period that she had been gone. Zia was glad they had hired one of the most trust worthy person to take care of her apartment while she had been gone. She hadn't been paid for a while year and half that she had been gone. But on getting back, she en

Zia had slept through the day, her body finally free from the toxins. She got up from bed and retrieved her mobile on the table , she wasn't shocked to find the numerous missed calls. Quickly she made a call to Rex, one of the members of the lethal squad, the Eagles." Get your ass over here, we've got an operation to carry out" Came Rex's rude voice before he had disconnected the call. Zia rolled her eyes before she dropped her cell on the bed, she dragged her body to the bathroom. It was in that moment that she immediately remembered the cameras.She took a quick shower before she ran back to her living, her white towel still tied around her wait. She immediately started playing the videos, from the moment she had installed them and focused mainly at the time she had gone to the bathroom after being fed the poison.She watched Asriel's concerned expression and his sudden anger outburst, making her sit back in thought. Who knew he still cared for her, but he was still too cold to h

Asriel had just laid his head on the bed when a knock came through his door. His servants had never bothered him. He got up from bed rubbing his sleep deprived eyes. " What the hell Nicko, it's already midnight," " Our contact at the police station just called. The warehouse was torched, and every one of the guards killed," " You can't be serious Nicko, I just spoke with..." Asriel couldn't complete the sentence when the information finally hit him hard. He ran back into his room and picked his coat and put it on. He had been too tired to even remove his trousers.The two made their way upstairs to the roof, where a chopper was waiting. Asriel didn't even wait for him to sit on the pilot seat, he had occupied it and started the plane. A second later they were already on air, flying out of the city. A distance away the blazing fire could be seen in the middle of the night.The red flames reflected in Asriel's eyes as he fumed with rage. Getting closer he could see several police car
