"Why do you both look like you are going to swallow me whole at any given opportunity?" Jayden asked with furrowed eyebrows because of the way Sophia and Alex were looking at him. He almost turned back to leave the room but he decided against it at the last minute. He gave himself a pep talk, 'They won't kill you, all they will do is talk, so just calm down your nerves.' Jayden kept talking inwardly to himself until he got to the king-sized bed where the other duo sat down and patiently waited for him to come closer.When Jayden got to where they were, he brought a lone chair closer and sat down across from them. Ever since he stepped his feet into the room, their burning gazes had been on every movement that he made. At least he was now sitting in front of them, so they didn't have to strain their necks anymore to be able to see him."When will you both tell me why you are looking at me that way? Am I safe at all?" Jayden inquired for the umpteenth time."What exactly did you do to C

The security guards stood and watched the brutal exchange between the Kingston family. It seemed like they allowed them to fight without trying to separate them. Maybe they were entertaining themselves with the fight that was going on. But what they didn't know was that as they were feeding their enjoyment, one of the servants ran off to go and inform the boss of what was going on.It didn't take up to 5 minutes after Alex left his room for him to arrive at the war zone. He was so mad at what he saw. Victor and Marcus were at loggerheads with each other while Clare and Cassandra were at each other's throats. Alex looked around to see the security guards he put in charge of them laughing and cheering at the scene being displayed in front of them."What the hell is going on here?" Alex's loud voice boomed around the open space. This got everyone's attention. The fights stopped immediately. "Are you guys deaf now? I f*cking asked a question. Why are you disturbing the serenity of this en

It has been more than a week since Alex fainted in his room. Now he has fully recovered and has gone back to work. His relationship with Sophia has been going smoothly. It hasn't been a bed of roses but they seem to be in a better place now. They discovered that most of the problems they do have are always due to communication and they have decided to work on that aspect of their relationship. Ever since Alex made Victor Mancini fight with one of his trained security guards, there hadn't been any ruckus in their quarters. They have been behaving themselves, they no longer fight or argue unnecessarily. I guess that it took the embarrassment of their lives to get their brains to order. Victor's arrogant attitude has been put in check. Well, we can say that it took the beating of his life to reset his brain.It's a few days to Alex's 30th birthday and Sophia has been trying her best to make it a memorable one for him. Cynthia still hasn't been seen with any member of the group ever sinc

Alex entered his office to meet another surprise. His office staff bought him gifts. They were neatly arranged on his working table. His heart couldn't help but melt once again in the space of a few hours. He thanked every one of them for honouring him in such a manner and pleaded with them to help him take all the gifts to his car so that he could have some space to work. He was happy, but his happiness isn't complete yet until one person does the needful.Alex spent most of the day at the office expecting Sophia's call or birthday text message or even showing up at the office, but none of that happened. This brought down his mood to a minimum. He kept trying in his head to decipher what he may have done wrong to deserve such nonchalant behaviour from his girlfriend. Every time he thought of what could make her behave in such a manner, he came up with nothing to buttress the reason for the change in her attitude.Alex was still buried inside his own head when a text notification from

Sophia and Alex arrived at Diamond Star Hotel and Suites 20 minutes later. They made their way to the birthday arena. Sophia already braced herself for the tongue-lashing that would come from Cynthia. Well, the girl has every reason to be angry. She left her to attend to the guests for almost 2 hours now, that's a lot of time. She still didn't know how she lost track of time.‘You know exactly how you lost track of time’ her conscience pricked her.Sophia led her boyfriend into the well-decorated hotel. The decorations ran from the outside to the inside. On their way inside, different calibres of people wished him a happy birthday. Some female counterparts even tried flirting with him and this didn't go well with Sophia.When they were done with the people outside, they made their trail to the inside. None of them said something to the other. Alex looked down at his girlfriend to find her snarling.“What's going on with you babe?” He asked. They still casually strolled their way insid
