Asriel arrived at the Empire pub and casino, a high end pub that only the rich could have access to. He was already an hour late for his meeting. Five men had waited impatiently for more than an hour in a private room, sipping the bitter herb that burned their throats. On such a day drinking wasn't fun at all, especially after they had lost billions through the attack that happened last night.Asriel made his maiden entrance, seemingly unaffected by the anger that was evident on their faces. He sat on the empty seat before a waitress served his usual whiskey. He had seeped from his glass as the guys watched. No one was willing to speak up first, yet they had been yelping about how they would force him to return their funds they had invested." Mr. Gedor, with all due respect, what are you going to do about our business, my clients are already on my neck, waiting for the goods," Gray said, one of the prominent business men who dealt in drugs.Asriel had promised a safe delivery of the

Zichi had come out of the shower only to find her closet empty. She shouted for the servants but none heard her. With no other choice left, Zichi entered into Cai's room and picked his clothes which fitted her and put on. She sat back on the bed, trying to hatch a plan to get back at Zia, but how would she even do that when she had no idea where she lived. Her mobile rang bringing her out of her thoughts." Sis how's everything now?" Zia asked, she lay on her bed as she watched from her laptop Zichi's reaction." You are wrong Zia, you can't take the company from me, you can't touch my shares," " Don't talk about the past now dear sister, forget about the company, and soon, you'll forget about the mansion you are living in right now. I suggest you make good use of the change that I had the company give you. I can assure you, this would be the last cent you get from my company," " Just you wait and see," Zichi said and cut the line. She just received what she needed.She immediately

Asriel made his way out of his car into his company. He had several important matters to take care of personally especially after the hit on his businesses.His threats had worked at preventing his business associates from withdrawing their shares from the company, but that had only been a short term solution. He needed to find that bastard soon. But first he had to deal with his Empire chain of hotels and his family company which was under claim from some unidentified person.Asriel could already tell that all these were related, but he had no idea who it was that was targeting him and why. For the first time Asriel wished he could just call his grandmother, but he had shunned her for so long that he couldn't just go back begging at her feet. He had established himself in the underground and the corporate world. In due time he was sure to annihilate all those responsible for his misfortunes. Asriel had thought that maybe it had to do with Zia, but she couldn't do that against him, n

That same night, Asriel called back his special team into his mansion in the city. They had combed up the entire town at night, few dead bodies at random places, but till now they hadn't been successful, it was as though he were chasing the wind.Asriel made the one move he'd sworn never to in his life, a visit to Drusilla. He had driven through the cemetery before he remembered to visit his child. Out alone, Asriel made long steps into the cemetery. He was a few steps away when he noticed a figure lying helplessly on the ground, sobbing hard. He moved closer only to see that it was Zia.He stood there frozen. For the first time he felt his heart constrict in pain at the sight of Zia. He had forgotten that she had lost her first child, and that she had been all alone in this world.Asriel felt himself useless, till now he had failed to find out the person behind his child's murder. Was he really that useless?Asriel removed his coat and gently covered the woman on the ground who slow

(Mature content, strictly above 18)Zia had just laid her head on the bed to sleep, but she ended up turning and tossing on the bed, her mind clogged with the general's image. His kiss still lingered on her lips. She held her lips as she stared into the dark ceiling, smiling sheepishly to herself.She had to give herself a chance in love. She picked her mobile to check the time, ten minutes to midnight. She dropped back her phone but it rang immediately." General, " Zia called, her heart skipped a bit." Are you still at the party?" The General asked." I'm on my bed, I left immediately after you. I realized that you were my only reason to enjoy all that." " I'm flattered, thanks so much dear," " Did you arrive at the camp already?" " Yes, I arrived moments ago. In fact that's one of the reasons why I called. The president just called. He'll be at the camp tomorrow morning. The date for the operation was moved forward and we are expected to move out by evening. I thought you shoul
