You really are a cornered rat, resorting to cheap tricks like this. Did he think smearing my name would cover up for his own incompetence? Or did he think this would force my hand? “Don, do you believe him?” I asked, looking the old man in the eye, completely unfazed. “If I did, you wouldn’t be sitting here drinking coffee with me,” the Don chuckled, his eyes full of trust. “But I need to give my family an answer, and I need to shut up the fools who are running their mouths.”

“What happened back there? How were you able to connect to Edict?” Hildegarde who was seated atop Mane’s shoulder asked the young man who was gazing at his reflection in a bowl of water. After Mane killed the banshees, he and Dan returned to the village. Of course Dan questioned him about the bizarre sight that was Mane being burnt alive but not burning at all. Mane responded that he didn’t have a clue about what happened. He told Dan that just when he had made up his mind to escape the fireball, he had a strange feeling in his heart that there was no need to. He explained that he felt that the fire was beneficial for him, and not detrimental. But he didn’t know why he had that feeling or ho

Still not enough. But enough to feel real. “To understand that,” he said, “…you need to understand what that night really was.” A pause. “It wasn’t a house fire.” Adrian’s eyes narrowed. “…I knew it.” The man continued “It was a controlled burn.” The words echoed. Cold. Precise. Planned. Isabella felt her pulse spike. Fast. Unsteady. “…Why?” Her voice cracked slightly. Just this once. The man’s eyes didn’t leave hers.

I queried. "What do you think why I'm here?" He replied. I sensed what he meant. "Uh... Uh... Uh..." I stuttered. I gently rob my head. I didn't know what to say. Finding an alibi, to bragged or anything else to avoid the talk about the sun man. "Whahaha!" He broke the silence and asked, "You looked like a coal, what happened to you, huh?" What kind of man, he was making fun of me. "Ah... it's nothing, just caused by an accident. A while ago, there was a fire and I was nearly burnt," I lied.

No ammunition. “Do you really expect us to believe this fire was just a coincidence, Mr. Romano?” one reporter asked, leaning forward, clearly hoping for a slip-up. “I expect you to believe the facts,” I replied, my voice cold now. “The facts are simple. One of my workers was careless, and the fire was an accident. Speculation helps no one. My focus is on rebuilding and ensuring the safety of our people, not indulging in baseless accusations.” I could see their skepticism, their doubt. But I had no intention of giving them more to feed on.

Ravenna turned and left. The man could see the confusion in my eyes. One by one, he shoved stones into my mouth until it was full, making it impossible for me to speak. Then, he sealed my mouth shut with tape. "You don't know me, but I know your parents—an incompetent firefighter and a useless doctor. "When my apartment caught fire, your father chose to save the old lady next door first. Because of the fire, my wife went into premature labor. She was sent to the hospital, and your mother was the one who tried to save her—but she failed. My wife died!

the man reported "What?!!" Leonardo exclaimed as he sprang up "So the new Casino is on fire?" Leonardo asked and the man nodded "And what were you doing when the Casino was being burnt down?" Leonardo enquired "I.... I had to escape Sir, I had to bring you the news" the man replied "And did you not think I'll have preferred you died saving my Casino than bringing me a bad news?!!" Leonardo yelled as he opened his drawer and grabbed his gun "Sir.... Sir please Sir, I'm sorry Sir, if I had remained there I'll have died along the other workers" the man pleaded

To his credit, he remains silent until the fire is so close the embers start to singe his tattered clothes. In the next breath, he’s stammering through a confession of trafficking on a much greater scale than any of us imagined. Still, my mates don’t douse the flames even as his stammers turn to sobs at the end of his tale. The man is soaked in his own urine before Mason signals them to back off. Between the excitement of the evening and my still healing injuries, I’m sagging against my dad’s side by the time Mason gives the order to have the man taken away. I whisper my intent to slip away, knowing my men will be occupied well into the night but dad holds me back.

He said, surprising me. I snorted once I snapped out of my trance and followed him out of the stables towards the clinic. “If so, then the man has an unusual way of flirting.” “The man has had a few rough years, honey. It wasn’t easy to adapt to this new life he now has.” Blessed curiosity that always won me over. “What do you mean with that? What happened to him?” “Jacob was a fireman,” Was his reply. “Was? Why did he stop being?”

A blurry video was played on the large screen. It was the mall fire that shocked the country five years ago. In the video, flames soared into the sky and thick smoke billowed.

The second time, he carried two crying children.
