The sun came out early the next day and Declan sat at the bar in the living room that morning. He heard noise coming from outside and checked what it was through the curtains. "No way..." He hissed and took the steps in twos, racing up to May but he met May at the top of the stairs. "What's that noise I hear? Are they here again?" May was really scared and held her night robe tightly in a fist. "Everything is alright, I was coming to check if you're awake. Please go back and dress up while I take care of things down here." Declan gave her an assuring nod, leading her to turn and go back into the room. "Where is he? I demand to speak with him this instant!" "But madam, you can't be here. Young master didn't tell us to expect any visitors!" The security guy tried to push the woman he didn't recognize away through the gate. Declan should not hear her else his job is done with. He had left the gates open to carry in some supplies and didn't know when the woman drove. "Young ma

The situation was a little bit awkward than Declan expected. He knew Mandy was that way sometimes but never has he seen her this particular way. "What do you think? Will you be my date?" She cooed, her eyes still on him."Your date? What's the occasion this time Ms. Asher?" "I have my company's gala coming up. This particular one is special because it is hosted once every four years! The first ever one I'm hosting since I became the director of Asher groups and company.""Wow, that's massive.""Exactly how I want it to be defined, massive!… explosive!"There was a spark in Mandy's eyes as she gestured the words in the air. "I have so much planned for the event but most especially I want to—uhm... Kind of adopt a company. You know, offer them partnership in the form of a franchise but they will have their own name and watch them grow.""Wow! That's quite a vision you have right there" "I know." Mandy beamed a proud smile as she paced her living room. She continued. "But you know wh

Declan goes to find the Butler but he is not on duty. "We haven't seen him in two days now. He didn't even give a leave notice." One of the security spoke. For two days? That's exactly how long the men visited. So the butler hasn't been to work since that day. "Do you have his address?" Declan asked. "Young mistress has the profile of everyone." The security man said, growing suspicious of Declan. He has seen Declan around a couple of times but he didn't trust him and whatever he was trying to dig. "I don't want her to know about this, tell me where your colleague lives." Declan demanded, pinning a cold stare at the security man. "But why don't you want her—""Are you the only one on duty?" Declan interrupted glancing around. "No, why?" The security man reached for the baton by the side of his uniform, his face etched in worry. "Good." Declan stated and knocked him off with one blow. The man had tried to use his baton but he is no match for Declan in speed. Declan noticed

It's the night of the gala and Declan was early at Mandy Asher's residence. She was taking a long time to get ready so he waited in the living room. Heels clicked on the stairs and Declan looked up at Mandy alight from the stairs and his jaw dropped. Mandy looked like a goddess in the red dinner dress she wore. The silk cowl neck body con dress perfectly defined her voluptuous body. Declan was enamored by her beauty and elegance. She is one of the prettiest women in the world. "You like what you see, Mr. King?" Mandy smiled gently, conscious of the way his eyes roamed his body."You look—stunning, Ms. Asher." Declan replied huskily, his eyes not leaving her body. He walked to the foot of the stairwell and offered her a hand which she took. "All these can be yours, Mr. King. Just say the word." Mandy bit her lower lip, her gaze seductive as she flickered her eyes all over Declan's face. "How about we try not to be late to your own event?" Declan smiled gently and Mandy rolled he

"Ashley!" Mandy screamed, her hands flying to her mouth. Her sister was on the floor unconscious and a strange man was trying to take off her clothes. Ashley had gone on her way as soon as they got to the party and no one knew her whereabouts. "What are you doing?! Leave my sister alone!" May barked, rushing at the man but he slapped her using his back palm."Argh!" May groaned, landing on the floor. She touched her lips and brought her hand to her mouth. Blood. He broke her mouth.The man resumed what he was doing. Tugging on Ashley's coset-dress to get it off. "Get off my sister!" May growled again pulling one leg of her heel. She threw it at the man but missed. "Mind your damn business! This has nothing to do with you." The man barked, hesitating to hit May again. But May didn’t back down, she pulled the second leg of her heel and threw it, this time it landed on the man's temple."Arghh!" The man groaned, coming for May with a tight fist. "No... No..." May began to back o
