All Chapters of The 99 Seconds: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

“Mason?” Cassandra exclaimed in pure shock as she saw her boyfriend and her best friend in bed together. As she stood rooted in place, hot tears began to stream from her eyes as the betrayal hit her like a heavy rock had been placed on her heart. Her breath was inching away bit by bit as she began to struggle to breathe. She placed her hand on her chest, and her heartbeat could be heard in her ears. Small sobs escaped her lips as Mason removed the blanket off himself and approached her. “I can-,” he said as Cassandra inched away from him and left the room. Arial, her best friend, sat in place, looking less concerned than scared as she faced Madson and said, “ Let her be, she will be okay.” “ But she is your friend, he exclaimed.” “ And she is your girlfriend, you know?” she retorted.” He faced her, putting on his clothes, and spoke again, “ You shouldn't be here when I come back, and he left the room.” Arial laughed sarcastically and fired back angrily. “She wasn't yours

The flowers were arranged next to each other in line, more exquisite than the other. One of the staff led them to a confined area, as they walked in, Hayden nestled down in one of the Parsons chairs, and Cassandra did the same. Morning light streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating the polished mahogany table, as Hayden and Cassandra waited for the meeting to begin. He had spent countless hours before wondering who they would be meeting, and in his mind it had been a man of authority—someone who was solemn, who commanded respect, dressed in a perfectly fitted tuxedo, perhaps in his mid-sixties, with gray hair and an air of undisputed confidence. They had spoken before on the phone, and always greeted by the voice of a man with an unassailable English accent — his interpreter, they figured — nothing surprising there. The room echoed with a sharp click—the distinct sound of heels approaching. With growing anticipation, Hayden and Cassandra both glanced toward th

Two cars backed up out of the driveway together, headlights cutting through the dark. As soon as they merged onto the main road, the pairs settled into their excursions. What adventurous stories lay ahead, none yet knew, but after this evening, they certainly all understood about plans. The motors of the vehicles hummed alongside the hushed sounds of conversation as they rode together to their destination. The vehicles stopped in front of a building that seemed a little more ordinary than they’d expected. Outside, there was only a tall and hulking man, whose skin was tinged with the tipped-over neon light flooding right on him, making him look as if he were a bodybuilder. This club was different from the others; it was for the elite and the high class. All eyes were on Inez as they exited the car, and she knew why. She introduced the information in a more captivating and stimulating way , which encouraged everyone to expect further development. For Cassandra, all she really wanted

The morning sun penetrated through the curtain, and the room was filled with light. Cassandra rolled on the bed as the unfamiliar soft bedding wrapped her skin. A groan escaped her lips as the hangover of last night set in, the unfamiliar scent, the unfamiliar room, and the unfamiliar presence of a man. Her mind went blank as she tried processing all that happened last night, maybe it was the alcohol or that she loses her cool whenever she is drunk, but the pictures in her vision were all blurred. As she inched herself away from the man’s embrace, she mustered up the courage to get a glimpse of the man. Her every turn didn’t alert him, and she began to wonder if he was dead or just sound asleep. As she scanned his face, his long lashes cast shadows on his cheeks, his lips slightly pulsed, and his brow furrowed. She scrutinized his face even more, as her face fell on his lips again. In the dim early morning light, his face seemed to glow with a silvery luminescence, as his under
