221: Eerie

KENNEDY Thomas wobbled by my side as I tried to assist him over to the couch right in front of me. I gently put him down but that didn't help either way as he slumped, passed out on the couch.I looked at him, my hands in my pocket as I recalled how he practically lost the thirty five million I gave to him to gambling. We've been at the casino since the dusk of night and he kept betting thinking he would win everything back. At least I had a bit of leverage on him but either way it wasn't even my money.I found it lying next to Melanie's dead body and assumed it was be a nice bonding gift with Lilly's father. I'd just ask him for a bit of interest, maybe use the auditorium as collateral. "Hangover tea.." Lilly's mother brought a tray of two bowl sized cups as steam erupt from the two. I waved my palm at her as we both looked at her husband.Her husband would be needing both of those tea since he was drunk to stupor.She goes to put the tray on a table in the middle of the living roo

222: You've lost

KENNEDY Irene flashes the key card, twisting the doorknob and unblocking the door. My ears picked up the sound of muffled moans that made my skin crawl. I looked over to Irene who was as bothered as me. But either way I stepped forward, the voices getting louder as I approached them. What a sight to behold.There was Arielle at the bottom as one old geezer proceeds to ride her, getting out deep guttural sounds as he did. So the rumours were likely true about Arielle Nash, selling her body to get by. In someway it was pitiful, she didn't seem to enjoy it as she stared into the farthest corner of the room.Soon, her eyes dragged across and lands on me. She tried pushing the geezer off her but he pinned her by the shoulders aggressively still unaware of the third party in the room. I walked towards them, tapping him gently till he finally noticed me and staggered away from her in shock. Arielle pulled up the covers to hide herself as the old bastard got down and tried to flee but was s

223: No game

MIMII take a deep breath before submerging myself fully below the body of water. Wishing my worries would be nothing but washed away. My eyes paled open, it was blurry as I held my breath. Before I could come out of the water, a pair of hands dove in, encircling my neck and holding me down until they knocked the little air I'd managed to hold in. I aggressively inhaled the water, choking as I struggled. I tried to rise, kicking my legs above the surface of the water, but they held me firmly in place, to the point where I was sure my face had turned blue.If I could breathe, if I could talk, I would have asked for the reason. Why were they doing this? Or at least pleaded for my life. I struggled to make out who was doing this, and all I could see was a familiar locs of golden hair swaying over me, accompanied by a hint of a grin.“Mimi…” I heard my name as the water thundered around me.“Mimi…” I heard it again, and it felt like whoever was choking me was sickeningly calling out to m

224: you haven't changed

EMMETTE I heard footsteps, hollow but seemingly close. My hands are tied behind my back. So were my legs as I rolled agonisingly on the floor since my eyes were blindfolded. I was dehydrated, battling a massive headache and the last thing I remember was a having a conversation with Kennedy. I had no idea what we talked about or how it led to me being tied up. But one thing was sure, I was drugged, knocked out and dragged to where ever the hell I now resided.My ear pressed against the wooden tiled floor, the sound of steps pounding, getting louder until they finally stopped. Locks clicked, knobs twists and doors slammed wide open. A crack of light spills across my blind as if mocking my inability to see.I couldn't see, but depending on my other senses. Other than me, there were others standing in the doorway. And if I could guess, Kennedy had to be in the crowd. "You're awake." He confirmed, his steps thundering a bit forward. He snaps his fingers curtly as I heard steps rumbled f

225: Leverage

EMMETTE His steps thundered as he approached me and I braced myself for another set of his psychopath kicks. I waited, and waited but he hadn't done anything."I'll give you one thing Emmette. You're smart, intelligent and maybe that's why father preferred you more than his own flesh and blood. I mean I shouldn't even be wasting my time with you.""Maybe if I went after your daughter, you would have sang like a fucking canary. If only I knew where the fuck she was..." I heave a sigh of relief. Emery was okay, it was like I knew it was best to pull her out of school the moment I met with Kennedy. At least she's safe from this sadistic bastard. My men and her nannies keeping her safe."I almost feel bad for killing your mother..." I slowly tilt my head up at him. "Not that you would care but maybe I could have used her to get something out of you." He added like a trigger, like he was throwing bone to a dog, a bait to a catch. And somehow I hope he was lying, playing mindgames but some

226: seeing things

MIMIMy mouth hung wide open as I let out a loud gasp. With each dragging breath, I could see the moist fog escaping my mouth. My hand gripped tightly around the metal bars of the prison cell.I watched through the rods as Corrie stood on the other side, holding what seemed to be slightly aged versions of Benjamin and Herod. It was confusing because I'd expected them to be adults, given that I'd spent twenty-five years in this hellhole."Benjamin.." my breath quakes. "Herod?" I stifled, my breath ceasing as I gripped the bars tighter in relief. They both looked healthy and happy. Corrie kept to her promise.That's why she was here with my babies, yes, to bail me out so I could be reunited with them."Mommy..." Herod turned to Corrie, his lips curled into a downward curve. "Who is this woman?" That felt like a gun shot straight to my head. What did Herod mean by that. "And why does she know our names." He added and somehow it felt like some kind of twisted joke."Why are we here momm

227: crooked fence

MIMIMy eyes felt drowsy, only to widen at the sudden, sharp pang of pain in my stomach. I let out a groan and turned to my left, only to see Corrie standing at the edge of the car door, looking down at me.I immediately freaked out, sobering up as I crawled toward the farther end of the car.My heart raced as I looked down at my abdomen, holding my breath as I checked for any sign of a stab wound. There wasn't a single one. My stomach still hurt, but maybe it was because I'd skipped breakfast at Ethel's.I finally let out the breath I'd been holding in, relief washing over me. I looked over at Corrie, who seemed confused by my reaction. She wasn't holding anything that could serve as a weapon, so I relaxed a little more, my back scraping against the window until my butt touched the seat."Are you okay?" Corrie asked. I had a look around, scanning my surroundings. We were no longer on the road but I couldn't map out exactly where we were. All I could see was greens, from trees to bush

228: back home

MIMITwenty minutes passed and it felt like we're no where close to where Hatty and Abel might be."Mimi..." Corrie stopped after knocking, I went right in front of her, knocking as well, letting out a dry hmm to answer her call."You didn't tell Kennedy we're here.." she said as I felt a bile rise in my throat, I was moments to coughing but that alone would have made me looked suspicious so I tried to stay calm. I was afraid of looking her in the eyes, afraid she'll see past me and read me like an open book. But I didn't really have a choice, if I didn't look at her, she'll be more suspicious of me."What?" I casually muttered, maybe too casual, maybe I should have been more confident with my reply. I clear my throat, pulling my gaze away from her and staring right back at her.More confident in my self, I resumed. "What are you talking about?" I asked."You can't believe Hatty is right, can you? Because she's your friend?" I added."It's not that, it's just that how else would Kenne

229: A child's bedroom

CORRIE It finally hit me. Not the thick soothe of dust, no but the immediate nostalgia with the little memories I had. From the beginning, I didn't even settle to think how this would affect me.After what felt close to two decades, I was back home and I tried my best not to cry. As unknown grief settled in me.This could have been my home, where Haven would have grown up running around with Emerald. It could have house so many happy families, happy memories. But no, Kennedy and Darla took that away from me."Corrie..." Hatty latched on to my free hand as I turned back to her. I wanted to hug her, break down and retreat to her comfort but I didn't have that time. I nodded, giving her a solid nod."Are you okay?" She asked. "I am." I said. "It's just my memories and the thought of what could have been... it's overwhelming.." I said and even though I didn't want to retreat into her arms she pulled me into a hug and I really needed that."It's okay..." She patted me. I was going to mak

230: Loyalty

MIMILoyalty. There's something twisted about it. Devoting your time to a particular thing or person, hoping they'll return the same miserable gesture.My mother unmistakingly was loyal to who ever could feed her ego, and in the end left us as orphans after my step father killed her. I never liked that woman, not only because she forsake us for just a mere man but how loyal she stayed to one particular person or thing that never served her.So I always abide by a saying I learnt after her passing. I'm loyal to no other person than my self or in other words who ever was offering more.And in my case, my loyalty had shifted to Kennedy the moment I could have a little moment to myself and glance at the text he sent. I froze in shock when I saw it and almost got caught by Corrie.He was willing to void my money, if only I burnt down this entire Manor and kept Corrie alive. He sent me information at how he had Jerrycans of gasolines stacked at the basement and the moment I could get to the
