Mason smirked openly at Ric as the latter watched him with burning eyes. He could see the hatred for him written clearly across Ric’s face, even his father could, as he stared back at Ric with a hard expression, silently demanding he masked his emotions, but masking what he was feeling at the moment was not one of Ric’s strongest suit as he ignored his father and glared at Scarlett as she put the beef into her mouth. It was not the fact that she was eating it that hurt Ric's pride so badly, it was the message it sent across to the table, and this too in front of his father, now Ric knew he attempted to have a little fun with Scarlett some days ago, but to him that was not nearly enough reason for the pain and humiliation he was currently passing through and too make it worse in front of his family, he closed his eyes as his knife digged into the ceramic plate and produced a screeching sound that caused everyone around the table, including the servants to glare at him.“What's the matt

Seth Ackerman, aka Kain was busy tying loose ends before he left the country for good. His recent gig involving Mrs Wilde was his best one yet, and he had finally gotten enough cash to do what he wanted, which was to clear his debt and the death threat hanging around his neck and finally leaving, this time for good. “Well well, look who is here.” Dragon, the leader of Red Falcon, mocked as soon as Kain stepped into their den. He had been on the run from them for several months now, knowing that his life was over the moment they caught him, which they never did as Kain was an expert in the game of hiding.  It was one of the other things he did best. Kain refused to be intimidated however, as he strode in confidently, everyone was crowding him, and he knew that even now his very breath was at stake but he could not let

“I could have, but she didn't give me the chance to, just said whatever was on her mind and hung up.” Frustration was evident in his voice and Young stopped at a traffic light and used this opportunity to turn back and assess his friend. He could see the state Mason was, and it was not a good one, well, who could blame him? Being accused of infidelity often did that to a man. “Well, did you call her back to explain yourself?” Young asked again and Mason shook him with a forlorn and at this even Mark let out a sound of exasperation. “C'mon bro.” He sighed. “Really? Even I know that.”   Mason laid his head on his palms as he considered his choices, he really had nothing to apologize for, the fact that Scarlett was havin

“Thank you for doing this with me.” Scarlett could not help but say, knowing how much Mason hates dining, chatting, or seeing her family in general,  and she honestly could not blame him, she almost harbored such sentiments herself, but only the thought of her dear late Grandfather was staying her hand. The Rodneys mansion would never be home, not for her at least. “It is nothing.” He said stiffly, eyes hard and focused as if preparing to go into battle and she could not blame him for it, she simply smiled and placed one comforting hand over his, ignoring his surprised look. The argument, or lack of it rather was still fresh in her mind, when he flatly refused to discuss Rita Donovan with her as if the woman was a dear topic and Scarlett was not buying into the whole silence, but one thing she was known for was patience, she would play along to keep the peace, whi

They were right of course, Shane Landon could not bring himself to ignore such a juicy bit, and he bit into the trap eagerly as he elegantly unfolded the paper in his hand during his Saturday Live With Shane Landon, and when he spoke, the world froze, and there were no other words for it. Immediately the uproar that emerged from the silence was one that the Wildes had never thought was possible, it was just a bit of gossip after all, but the crowds ate it straight up and gobbled it down, and in no time, worse rumors emerged, and it was something that even a media controller could do little to stop.  Mason and Scarlett were in the luxurious hole that Saturday evening and decided to switch on the TV to get rid of the strain that still lingered in the air, and they did. Scarlett ate the Yoghurt in her cup as she watched the handsome face of Shane Landon walk up to his seat with a smile and
