Soon, the trio arrived at the back entrance of the wide hideout,

Xavier whispered, "This way, Boss..." as they entered the hideout. Kendrick followed closely, his eyes scanning the room.

They seemed to tiptoe on every step they took.

soon, they walked into a spacious and empty room, and Xavier pulled a chain that dropped from the top of the building, it seemed firm for a climb.

"Hey, look! What's that?" Xavier asked, his voice trembling as he pointed to a red skull painting on the wall.

"Just a sign," Kendrick replied, his chuckle low, almost like a whisper.

He pointed at it, and Kendrick followed the direction of his fingers, immediately, it settled on the painting, his eyes rolled slowly;

"I said it's just a sign, to me that's nothing," Kendrick replied again.

"Come on, Boss. You've got no weapons for self-defense… you shouldn't be doing this, don't you think so?" Xavier asked. His face shrunk as he spoke, he seemed to sound more conscious than Kendrick.

    Immediately, Xavier sprang into action, snatching an AK-47 from a soldier with lightning speed. The weapon felt familiar in his hands, a perfect fit for his broad shoulders. As they exited the empty room, he kept a sharp eye on their surroundings.The other guards carefully lifted Brown, his face contorted in pain and supported him as they moved. Five rescued women sat on the floor, their faces blank and haunted. One of them sobbed, her face red and swollen. "I need to get back to my family," she pleaded.The leader's voice was firm. "We need to get them out of here, now."Kendrick stood at the entrance, his eyes scanning the area like a spy. Suddenly, the sound of sirens pierced the air, signaling the arrival of Inspector Thud and the SWAT team, the sound of their sirens blared in the air, bombarding the area with flash red and blue. "The SWAT team is here," Kendrick announced. "Let's move, now!.. let's move out." They rushed forward, their eyes turned to the pale and gaunt

    Soon, the sitting room came alive, all the members of the Rogers family that stayed with them rushed out, taking their seats in front of the giant screen, their eyes feeding on the News."No matter how hard he strives, he can't be compared to Lowlack Povar of the Roger's family." Peace Churchill snarled. "Possibly he has realized the truth about his low life and he is doing everything to get noticed, …who does that? ….Which billionaire father would allow his son to go into such a risky task?" Katherine Rogers exclaimed, laughing slowly. "But the guy is becoming a hero already, can't you people just see it?" Maverick interrupted. Immediately, the others flared up, their eyes like a sharp spear turned towards him."What are you trying to say now? … I mean what are you insinuating? Peace Churchill asked, …. Does that add money to his bank?" She scowled."No,.. not that way, Peace… all I was saying is that he is becoming some superhero," Maverick replied coldly and they laughed ag

    "I'll want you to go to your room and think about it yourself… sometimes you gotta stay behind and allow others to do the work." Mr Peterson said. "You need not worry about anything, Dad… I'll be going up there, I'll see you tomorrow, Dad," Kendrick replied, his voice firm, yet a hint of uncertainty flickered in his eyes as he turned towards the stairs.°The activities at the Oakland site had taken half of Kendrick's strength, leaving him stressed, it showed on his face as he leaped up the stairs, his eyes sunken, his skin pale and dusty. Arriving in his room, he closed the door behind him, the click of the lock echoing through the room, his eyes scanned the space, searching for a sense of comfort, but it eluded him, his mind raced. Who was coming after him? The Maradonas, yes, but who else? His thoughts swirled like a maelstrom, refusing to settle, as he sank into the sofa, his body language screaming exhaustion.His mind restless, as he pondered on who was coming after him, asid

    The weekend morning arrived just in time, it was a cold morning, not just a cold weather but it left a cold reflection on the faces of every household in the Peterson's mansion, including the workers. The silence was deafening, the stillness palpable, as if the very air was heavy with unspoken truths. The usual warmth and bustle of the weekend was replaced with a sense of shock, a feeling that something was amiss. Inside the waiting room, a time bomb ticked gently, ready to explode a line-up of 10 guards, flanked by the chief security officer, Xavier.Kendrick's sullen face lowered as his father, Mr. Peterson threw questions on the guards, each piercing through them like a stray bullet."Who amongst who was at work last night when that happened? Who was on duty and who was not?" He asked, his eyes fixed on Xavier who stood at attention, answering questions so none was left unanswered."I am sorry sir, I went to bed early, I didn't dispatch them into the evening's batch," Xavier res

Immediately, he turned towards the entrance, two ladies rushed towards him, an air of happiness showed on their faces. "You must be Kendrick Peterson?" One of them asked.Kendrick wondered for some seconds, then nodded gently." Oh my goodness… I've been trying to connect with you on IG all along, but You've not responded to any of my messages, sir." She said, shaking her hands and limping happily."Oh.. oh, sorry about that … I don't even know you," Kendrick replied, his face still masked a glint of worrines, but he forced a smile and his lips curved. "Hampton Bay is my name and that's my friend, Bliss" The lady replied. "Nice to meet you Hampston and Bliss," Kendrick said politely, as he moved. "One more thing, please… it seems like you're in a hurry," Hampston said."Yeah, exactly… I came to visit a patient here." " Oh, sorry… I h

Immediately he stepped out of the car, he saw his Dad flanked by his guards as they moved towards the garage. He was heading somewhere, for the first time in a long while since Kendrick saw him step out of the house."Hey, Dad, you're going out? Kendrick asked as he approached him.His father still seemed provoked by the actions from last night, so he turned to him, his voice sounding stern."I will have to arrange for a family reunion, Kendrick. Soon, all the members of the Davis family would be in Texas. So I need to ensure everything was in place"Kendrick's eyes sparkled, he remembered his father's popular saying ... ."you can always stay behind and allow the rest to do the work."

    Not later than he arrived at the inn, did the guards move towards him in grand reception, the same guys who had halted him the other time now lowered their heads to greet him. Kendrick, surprised by the level of respect they bestowed on him, smiled a bit. "This way Sir." One of them said as he led Kendrick into the hall.Kendrick followed slowly, immediately he entered, his eyes settled on Sophia's stunning gaze, she was up the VIP lounge, leaning against the steel rails that separated the lounge, his eyes sparkled and his lips curled.He had never thought of freeing his thought of Stelcy's action soon, but here he was, a sight of a charming lady made him giggle, he climbed up the stairs, and Sophia hurried towards him, her eyes locked onto his, he knew it wouldn't last a time, since he was about to spill the beans today, he must tell her that she's been mistaking him for someone else, someone gone.

Startled, she nearly spilled water all over herself.She stared at her phone's screen with shock in her eyes.“What is it Lisa?” She asked nonchalantly, rolling her eyes. She knew how dramatic her friend could be.“I can't believe I made a video of us last night.” She said, staring at her phone excitedly.“Let me see_” Bridgette leaned closer to her in order to have a look.Ramon glanced at the rearview immediately, his heart beating fast in his chest; he almost collided with an incoming vehicle.It almost happened!“Hey watch the road!” Bridgette screamed just in time for him to avoid the truck that was coming in front of them on its own lane.“Won't you watch where you're going?” She scolded, half yelling.“I'm sorry ma'am.” He apologized.

Bridget felt the heat of the moment as she watched her friend take on two men in the room.Her core heated and her insides ached, burning for similar passion.

    His man lover, Freddy, brought out the wine from the wine safe and popped it open. He giggled at the pop sound made from the cork on the wine's seal……Then poured some of its contents into two glasses. He gave Maverick one while he played with the other. He pulled himself on top of the table and sat there, his legs crossed. “A win for one is a win for all.” He smiled, raising the glass.“Cheers.” Their glasses clicked and they took a sip each. Maverick came closer, he smelt his face and smacked his butt, he giggled like a lady. Maverick finished the content of the entire glass and dropped it, —thud, on the table.

    “That's a bad idea Lisa.” Bridgette slammed, shoving it off.“Think about it_” she went on, not backing down. “Something enticing for the eyes. Appetizers for the soul and body but we aren't eating them—No.” She cajoled, raising her index finger, she waved a no in the air.“Don't tell me you don't miss the days when Kendrick shoved his rod up your folded sheets.” She flattered, giggling. Her words were convincing and impairing. She got on the pole and wrapped her flexible, feminine legs around it, her arms grabbed it and she let her legs spin her around. She swirled and twirled on it, tilted back and balanced in the air, making stunts Bridgette felt were impossible… releasing her arms and letting her legs stay on the pole while she spun in all directions. Bridgette's eyes were intently watching her every move_ she must admit, she looked really sexy and fascinating on that pole. There was nothing missing, she did it like a pro–she watched in earnest amusement.She couldn't hide the

    “Is he scared you'd try to fight him off? Why the hurry?” Kendrick asked, not as surprised as he sounded.“No idea.” Xavier shrugged, exhaling sharply. “When he saw me the other day at the mansion_ the time I went to see Bridget? He was shocked to his bones and didn't seem pleased to see me at all.” Xavier explained.“He told me right there and then that you left him in charge so… in other words he was asking me to back off.”“That's if I ever had an intention of fighting over the properties with him.” he added, sarcasm in his tone, he flipped the pages of the file in his hand.“But there's no handwritten document that states I left him in charge.” Kendrick retorted, narrowing his eyes to avoid the piercing rays of the sun. “Yes_ even so. You controlled some of the Rogers assets and he stands as an heir.” Xavier explained.“Oh!” He realized.“Gosh, it's so hot up here_ and windy too.” Kendrick muttered, away from the subject matter. The wind, playing with his hair.“He intends to set

    Hanging delicately on the high cliff of a picturesque mountain. Kendrick tugged his hands into the fine sand inside a small sac dangling behind his back. Sweat drops clustered all over his face and stopped, turned and stared back at the distance… how far he'd come. Then he aimed for another point with his hand. He grabs it and pulls himself up. He did the same again but missed, he almost slipped but found his stance on one hand before launching again to the other point where he felt was safer. He let out a victorious laugh when he succeeded. He stayed there for a while taking deep breaths.He looked at the clear sky and admired it but it wasn't long until the blinding sun rays forced him to find coverage for his exposed eyes. He narrowed his eyes to reduce the effect of the sun on them and looked away. He closed his eyes and steadied his breath. Eventually, a picture of Bridgette floods his mind. Her beauty radiates through his eyes as blinding and captivating as the sunrays.There

He continued. “Well, if I'm in trouble, be rest assured that I'll reach out to you.” he winked.Xavier wasn't content.“So this place__ where exactly are you going?” he asked, his eyebrows furrowed with worry. “In case you go missing I could get the search men to find you at that location.”“I don't know_” Kendrick shrugged. “Swanee, Monroe…” he tried to guess possible places he might go but gave up, the list was endless.“You know what they say_ Atlanta is a city in the forest. So__” He shrugged. “So, you're using the sports bike I saw outside?” Xavier asked.“Yeah— cool right?” — he smiled from cheek to cheek, like a little boy excited about balloons. “When did you learn how to ride a bike?” Xavier wondered, his eyes narrowing as curiosity filled his eyes.“Seriously_ what a question.” Kendrick face palmed himself. “I know how to do a lot

    Before Bridget could reply, the bartender leaned forward again, undeterred. “Seriously, though. If you want to ditch this place, I can help.” He winked, his confidence irritating Bridget even more.“I don’t need your suggestions,” she snapped before turning back to Lisa. “Leave me alone Bridget, I'm fine. If you really care, go cry somewhere.” She shot, regretting those words immediately they came out. “I'm so sorry!” She apologized, trying to hold her hand.She fell on her knees and rubbed both hands as she begged Bridget. “I'm sorry” she mouthed.Bridget looked at her, tears gathering in her eyes. She felt terrible.

    The clanging of metal echoed through the corridor, mingling with the blaring of a security alarm, as Maverick's uncle was escorted from his prison quarters into the visiting room. His arms and legs were shackled, the chains rattling with each step. He sank into the chair across from Maverick with a heavy sigh, his movements deliberate and his demeanor cold.His face was a mask of stone, unreadable, with no hint of emotion.“Is Kendrick dead?” His gravelly voice cut through the silence, sharp and direct.Maverick forced a nervous smile, attempting to mask his unease. “Good day, Uncle,” he greeted, his tone strained. “And yes… he’s dead.”“Then what are you waiting for?” his uncle growled, tugging at his restraints with a grimace. “Get me out of here!”“Of course. I will,” Maverick assured him, his voice smooth, though his eyes betrayed a flicker of hesitation. “As soon as I secure the assets and Kendrick’s fortune.”A flicker of approval crossed his uncle’s face. “Good.
