Some of it even splattered onto the door across my unit. Another wave of stench hit instantly. I couldn't possibly stay at home after that, so I headed out for breakfast instead. I'd barely taken two mouthfuls of oatmeal when my phone started vibrating nonstop. The residents' group chat was filled with messages. Unit 202's tenant was Shirley. Unit 202 sent the first message. [Who kicked over the food outside my door? Own up to it now. That was my family's food supply for the coming month.] Food supply?

he patted the chair right next to him. I didn’t protest and stood up ,sitting next to him then my hands start sweating. I haven’t been this close to Cain Adams since I was too busy scrubbing his rug .

He had lots of guards . And all this food was for who exactly if he was the only one living here , does he have a new family ? Or maybe the mistresses the blogs talked about .

"But I believe I've spelled out what's to happen already. Mila has to give up herself and face the laws of the pack. I can't see any other way this conflict can be resolved without this." My uncle sighed and took his seat. It was evident that the man was frustrated, even though he fought so hard to keep it hidden from plain sight. He quickly looked to my aunt for help, and the woman got up slowly.. "Children..." My aunt began. "You need not......." BOOM! A loud noise, and with it, the front door of the house was blown into smithereens; the impact of the explosive hurled us all from the table to the other side of the room.

Thank you all for joining me here to discuss the incident that occurred at my home eight days ago. The chief of police, Walt Price, will be here shortly to confirm my story and help out your minds at ease. This was nothing but a random break-in, not something that targeted me or this company. A few of my security personnel were harmed, but they will recover and we should be able to quickly move past this." I paused for a moment as the elevator doors opened.

Along with that, she heard the sound of breaking something. Her grip tightened on those straps. That voice almost echoed through the walls of that long corridor. “Cheating!” “Remember King C, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth! Now bear it!” And then, she heard as if someone threw a whole set of utensils over the floor and she rushed to check what was happening actually.

He finally answered on the third ring and I broke down in tears. “Priscilla? What's wrong? Are you okay? What's going on?” His voice was frantic as my tears became even louder. The fume was starting to make its way upstairs as well so I spoke as fast as I could. “There's…there's a fire at the house. Aiden and Avery….trapped in the kitchen. My babies…my babies.” My speech was incoherent as I tried to force the words out. “What? How did it happen? I'm on my way. Where are you? Can you get out of the house?” His questions came simultaneously but I was starting to lose my focus.

“There’s been an incident.” My voice comes out hoarse. “What incident?” She’s calm, taking after Bart in that sense, but I don’t miss the tension in her face. “Someone stole Dad’s notebook.” I battle to make sense of it. “What?” “Someone broke into the house and stole Dad’s book, the little black one he kept in his desk drawer.” “But…” Shaking my head, I open and close my mouth, finally only managing, “Why?” “The book is important.”
