Henry wanted to scream his innocence, but doing that could warrant something that looked his death, so he looked away. In his life, he had been accused of a lot of things but none of them had seemed so true like how it was now.He sighed inwardly wondering if he had made a grave mistake by joining Luther’s group. He gulped and focused on the conversation between Luther and the Russian man.“ Just a little advice, you have to weed the bad ones out” the Russian man looked at the goods and smirked.“ You are in no place to tell me that, why don’t you begin to weed yours—" and just like that, hell was let loose. There was gunshots blaring from the other side. It was like a dominos effect, everyone began to shoot. Henry ducked lower and didn’t peep anymore as he panted. His eyes wide. He saw as the others shot at the center and he did same. He wondered where Luther might have gone. The shooting went on for the next 5 minutes till everywhere went silent. Henry’s heart beat loud in his e

Henry stepped on the gas as he saw the sign of the hospital in sight. Relief washed over him. Henry knew that taking the front gate would warrant attention so he swerved onto the next street and took the back gate. He knew that hospital like the back of his hands. He knew the owner. This was because he was the one who had operated on his father and mother after the accident. Windsor was a good man. There was no way he would turn him down.“We can’t go there!” Damien turned in his seat. Henry watched as Damien’s eyes roamed through the brake and ignition of the car. Then when his eyes caught sight of a half dead Luther, his shoulders slumped. “ We can” Henry said. He didn’t know why Damien was against him. Was that owner of this hospital rivals with Luther? Henry wondered.“do you know him ?” Lukas asked.“ yes…he’s a long time friend” Henry stopped in front of the entrance. The security men stooped and stared into the car.“ Special delivery” Henry said. The security man turne

Henry tossed and turned in bed. It seemed like sleep had eluded him but only he knew why. Just before he walked into his room that night, he finally caught a glimpse of the lady, attending to Luther.Her dirty blonde hair shone in the light, as it cascaded down her back, like fresh water falls. She had an oval face with small lips. Her upper lip was slightly plump which gave her a permanent pout. He couldn’t say the color of her eyes because he was distanced from her. Henry should have put into consideration that she was family with Luther but right now, he was running low on good reasoning.He had quizzed his friends on the girl. They finally told him that Laura was not Luther’s biological daughter. It was said that Luther had lost all his family members in a fire accident. Including the nanny. Laura was the little daughter of that nanny. After the burial, Luther took her in as his and they formed a family.After series of tossing on the bed like a rolling pin and a smile han

And hell was definitely let loose in the city. Within the first two days that came after the attack on Luther, the vice president’s son was kidnapped. The vice president couldn’t say it out loud to the public. News like this could undermine the security of the country. People would begin to question if they were still safe in the country. If this got out to the media, people would begin to ask questions. Serious questions too.The young man was later seen but he had been tortured to the point of coma. The vice president was livid. From that day onwards, the city came under high security. Everything and anything was scrutinized. This time around the covering on some Mafia groups had been lifted. The vice president let them be caught and they were prosecuted. Henry knew that the attack was not from them. Luther did not order them to kidnap the vice president’s son. Even though he had reasons to. All Luther said was that, they should all be on alert. “ Everyone thinks you did it” sai

Damien was dead but no one knew. Yet. He bid goodbye to his partner Lukas and said he was going to stay some more at the apartment. Besides Henry had told them to come back. He had asked some other men to take over watching the house. Damien dropped Lukas off at the bus stop because he wanted to stay back. He didn’t tell Lukas that. He had a gut feeling about the men. He just couldn’t say what it was but something did not feel right.After sitting in the car and waiting for like 30 minutes, he decide to put his mind to rest. He got out of the car and walked to the car that belonged to one of their men. “I’ll just go up and take a look. Then I’ll leave” he said and the men nodded. Damien moved his hips on his waist. He felt for his gun but didn’t pull it out. He crossed over to the other side and looked sideways. There was no sign of incoming vehicle or human. The cost was clear. He put on his sunglasses and walked into the building. If he checked at the desk in front, because it was
