Lenox stood at the edge of the warehouse, his sharp eyes scanning the crates stacked neatly before him. He stroked the smooth, shiny surface of an assault rifle which he just picked up. The object was like a piece of art and a weapon. Testing its weight, he held it to shoulder level, peered down the barrel, and nodded, with a happy grin."Good work, Gerald.The quality is exceptional," Lenox said, as he dropped the rifle, and put it back into the crate.Gerald, laughed upon receiving the praise. “Only the best, sir. I verified that all components passed inspection requirements before it arrived at me," he replied very pleased with himselfLenox patted Gerald on the shoulder and nodded in agreement. “You’ve outdone yourself. Let the men distribute this crate amongst themselves, and the rest to the mercenaries when they arrive, we’ll need to be ready,” he instructed.“And Gerald, you’ve earned some time off. Take the rest of the day for yourself. You’ve done well, ”Lenox added, his tone

Gerald's bodyguard glanced curiously at the two women as he adjusted the rearview mirror. They had led him on through unfamiliar routes and onto the pathways that led to the outskirts of the city. The destination was a small hotel in a secluded corner of the city and that did not please him."Sir, do you seriously want me to keep going, we are well out of the city, this is unfamiliar territory," the bodyguard inquired. Olivia who was in the back seat, next to Gerald, leaned across and whispered in his ear while her hand began to caress his inner thigh. “Discretion is key, isn’t it, Gerald? Clara and I wouldn't just let you have us in any random hotel after all," she said in a seductive manner.Gerald chuckled as he waved a dismissive hand. “You worry too much. Besides, Olivia here has a point. Let’s not make a fuss. Just follow their directions,” he said to the bodyguard.The bodyguard clenched his jaw but said nothing further. His eyes briefly at the rearview mirror as he conti

Katherine woke abruptly to the sharp, rapid beeping of the monitors beside Maxwell’s bed. The loud noise broke the peaceful atmosphere of the hospital room, making her awake from the slight doze she was having in the chair. Her heart pounded as she tried to make sense of the commotion, her mind still foggy with sleep. Then, she felt a faint pressure against her hand.Her eyes moved towards Maxwell’s still lying unconscious. His fingers twitched, his hand weakly squeezing hers. For a moment, she couldn’t move, all she could do was breathe. Was this real? She thought to herself as she quickly tried to compose herself.“Doctor!Nurse! Someone, please!” she called out, her voice shaking with urgency. She moved closer, her free hand caressing briefly his forehead as she tried to find any other signs of consciousness. “Max? Can you hear me dear ? It's me Katherine,” she said, loud enough that if he was fully conscious, he'd hear her.Maxwell’s eyelids fluttered a little, for a brief mo

Liam pulled the SUV up to the rear of the compound, the sound of the engine replaced by silence of midnight. Behind him, two of Alfred's men opened the back of the vehicle and carried Gerald’s body onto their shoulders. They had knocked him unconscious as he continued to struggle in their way to Marcus' house."Come on," Liam whispered and his voice was low so as not to wake Marcus up by that time.They moved him behind trees through the shadows of the compound, their movements were calculated , their only source of light was the moon but that was okay as they recognized the compound off heart. Liam opened the large wooded door that led to the basement, a place that was either used for storage or activities they didn't want others to be aware of. As they entered, they found only one light bulb was lit. At the center of the spacious but almost dark room was Alfred who sat behind a desk at the center of the room, calm and deliberate as ever. Upon the desk lay a bottle of whiskey

Her face changed as she frowned in distress. Putting aside her work she stood up and moved over to her daughter whose anger and pain was plainly visible.“Emma? What’s wrong, sweetheart? You look upset.” Fiona asked gently, her voice soft but curious. Emma bit her lower lip as the look in her eyes gave off a suppressed anger. For a moment, she hesitated, but the emotion bubbling inside her proved too much to contain."It's that woman Katherine," Emma said and with that she slumped onto the sofa, looking defeated.Fiona sat beside her, waiting patiently for her daughter

Chapter 70
Light reflections streamed through the curtains in her room while Emma drank her coffee and the thoughts of Maxwell filled her head. When she went to see him in the clinic, previously, she had been unwelcomed and uncomfortable by Katherine's overprotective yet polite presence. It hadn’t gone well. But she could not let that be the reason she'd stay away from the man she loved.With a renewed determination, Emma dressed carefully, choosing a soft blue blouse and jeans, casual but polished. She got her hair into a tidy ponytail and reached for her car keys before leaving the house. Maxwell had a soft spot for small, kind gestures, and so she stopped first at the farmer's market to get him some of his favorite fruits.The market was bustling with activity when she arrived. She walked around the stalls, her former memories clinging to her, dragging her back to a time Maxwell would talk about the juiciest strawberries or crunchiest apples. She picked out a box of strawberries, a clust
