Billionaire leveling up A DATE
Elena stared at the words of the text. She was beyond surprised. How exactly did he get her number? And what did he mean by he has the information she needs? She sighed and threw the phone on her bed.On a second thought, as she was about to untie the laces of her shoes, she decided to give it a try.It would not hurt to try. From the look of things, she was obviously stronger than him, so she was certain that her safety would be assured.She sat back up. She walked to the mirror, arranged her hair, fixed her make up well and headed out.It was night when she arrived at Flora’s grill. The place was filled.She stepped down from the Uber she had used to get there. As she walked to the grill the aroma of food hit her face, like someone had just slapped her.She was just yet to step in to the gril. The chair placement and decoration outside looked very beautiful.She had to stop and stare. The darkness of the night gave the grill a glow of its own. The lightings and everything was just

Ajax had just turned to corner he saw the person turn. He stopped and glanced. It was an alley he was staring at. Few people hung around and walked by. He stared pointedly at each and every one of them. He could not recognize the stalker from earlier.After a while, he left. He took a decision to use his powers and flash straight to the person when next he met the person and not care if any one saw him.He headed back to Grey’s lab. Walked through the gates. Said some ‘hey’s and hi’s’ to co workers as they had just closed and were heading back to their various homes.As he entered the magnificent building, heading to the elevator, he wondered why Nicolas would be looking for him. He just hoped everything was alright. He did not want to add anything to the list of things to worry about.He already had Nicholas, Nate, Gregory, systems and now a stalker to worry about.As the elevator dinged open, he walked out, standing in the hallway.Towards the left, led to his parents labs. He and
Billionaire leveling up CONVERSATIONS
Elena had eaten to her satisfaction as she spoke with Adam.Despite his ‘annoying and stupid ass’- her words, she still observed that he had a nice personality. He made jokes that seemed to irk her at first but along the line, she found herself finding humor in them.The tension and scowl she had on had washed off. She was finding it exhausting hating on someone. Technically, he was only doing what he was asked to do.She just needed answers. She could as well act the least nicely.“And guess what! He grabbed the square shaped glass cup and tried to prove his point.” Adam continued. “And…..”“Don’t tell me he forgot his line…” Elena croaked amidst laughs.“Of course he did.” Adam said.Elena laughed harder that her eyes began to tear up profusely.“And he poured it in and started looking around, totally unsure of what was going on.” Adam said in between laughs.He was telling Elena about a time when his cousin, Luis was having memory lapses. His cousin was an easy going person that lo
Billionaire leveling up A WHOLE NEW WORLD
The way he said it, coupled with his facial expression and all just made Elena to laugh. On a second thought, it would not really hurt to just have a little peep at the place and be out right?Maybe she could also see for herself this stupid Gregory of a person. And then maybe she would know where to find the bastard if he-It was then she realized that she did not know the threat Gregory posed as. She had no idea of the threats that Gregory gave Nicholas if he refused to join them. She just knew he was the new threat.She recalled and reminisced their conversation and then she discovered that they had strayed out of the topic that was at hand.“Sure. Let’s go. I would not stay long though. I still got exams tomorrow.” Elena finally caved in.A happy smile spread across Adam’s cheeks and he nodded. “Come on.”The two of them walked out, completely leaving the premises of the grill.“Are we going on foot?” Elena asked as they kept walking.Adam chuckled. “You tired of walking already?

“Hey.” Adam called Elena, getting her attention.Her eyes snapped back to him, staring at him. “Yeah.”“I just got access to this ward. Come on in.” Adam said flashing a key card for her to see.Elena nodded and looked back. To her surprise, She did not see the girl, Caroline anymore. “Yeah sure.” She said facing Adam.“You good?” Adam asked staring intently at her.“Yeah. I’m good.” She answered nodding continuously.“You look like you have seen a ghost. What happened?” Adam probed further, worry in his eyes.Elena chuckled. “No. I’m fine.” Her eyes flickered to the ward and the little girl laying on the bed inside.“What is wrong with her?” Elena asked changing the topic.“Well. This little girl has cancers.” Adam said staring at the little girl.Elena felt her heart drop for the little girl.“What do you mean cancers?” Elena asked.“Well, numerous cancers. Leukemia, cancer of the brain, cancer of the ovaries amongst others.” Adam

“ So.” Adam started. “I would leave you two ladies to catch up.” Adam turned to Caroline. “I apologize for the inconveniences. It would be just for a nigh- wait, I’m sorry do you two happen to know each other? Because I am sensing some kind of tension here.”Elena stared at Caroline, waiting for her to talk. Caroline’s expressions and thoughts were the same as Elena. Spite and hate oozed from the two ladies.“Hello ladies.” Adam said waving his hands. “I am still standing right here.”Still no response. The two girls ignored the man in their midst and kept shooting death glare at each other.“Caroline. I think you may have forgotten whose presence you are standing in right now.” Adam spat. His voice thick with anger.Caroline straightened up immediately and glanced at him. “I am sorry.” She said bowing her head slightly.Elena’s lips parted in surprise. Okay. For Caroline to back down from their glaring contest and give reverence to this man, Adam was definitely someone of great im

“That was evil of you!” Elena exclaimed as she picked up herself, grunting in pain because she slammed her butt on the wall.Caroline stared at her, from her stained clothes to her toes. She really did her bad.“Come on, I’ll get you fresh nightie to freshen up.” Caroline suggested throwing her an apologetic look. “And while you are freshening up, I would bring dinner to bed and we can watch the movie together. Okay?”Elena was speechless. She had not gotten used to this side of Caroline. Her lips curled up in a smile. “Sure.” She finally managed to answer.Caroline nodded and made to leave for the bedroom when Elena called her attention back.Elena was staring at her watch because apparently, her phone’s battery was dead. She assumed it was so, because it was no longer turning on.She figured it must have died when she was with Adam.“Caroline!” Elena called out. “It is late. I’m really sorry but I have exams tomorrow and I need to rest.”“So no movie?” Caroline responded.“Yes. Sor

It was summer, and the air was warm. The sun shone in a cloudless sky as people walked along the streets of West Virginia.Exams had ended and students had evacuated the school grounds. Well, except for certain students that remained in school grounds for special reasons.“I am really going to miss you.” Raphael said throwing his hands over Ajax’s shoulder, hugging him tight.Elena stood by and watched them. Her keen eyes observing the tiny little details about them.Ajax looked stoic, clenching his jaw every now and then as he watched Raphael carry his things. He looked like he wanted to cry, but he had to keep his cool with an expressionless face, yet he also had to show that he would miss him too.All he needed was to balance it. Not to show too much emotions and not to show less. She would say he was doing quite a fine job.The way his hands itched and slightly reached out to Raphael when Raphael turned to her Elena.Elena was going to miss them too. They had become huge parts of

HORROR. TRAUMATIZED
A weak smile graced his features as he walked through it.His eyes flipped open and he saw himself sprawled out across the floor with his hands still reaching out and holding Raphael by the chains.He felt pain in every muscle but slowly the pain began to subside. As it subsided, strength came in. When he was strong enough, he snapped the chains apart and they broke, freeing Raphael.Raphael looked at him with a mixture of worry, sadness and some thing along the lines of love. “Are you okay?” Raphael asked as he quickly freed himself from the chains and rushed up to Ajax.He cupped his face and wiped away something from his eyes.Ajax had no idea he was even tearing up. He lifted his hands to wipe his own tears. That was when he saw that he was crying tears.His eyes flickered to the reflection of himself in a mirror not so far away. He gasped as he saw the trail of blood that ran from his eyes, down to his cheeks. His ears too had the trail of blood. His nose and mouth were not left o

ANOTHER MORNING IN CHAINS
THE following morning, Ajax woke up to an empty bed. He opened his eyes and the clock hanging just in front of him showed that it was noon.“Okay.” He murmured. “I think something is definitely wrong. How does one sleep till twelve in the afternoon.” He could hear the sound of water rushing from a door situated on the left side of the wall. He figured that it was the bathroom and that Elena was probably having her bath.He tried sitting up and that was when he noticed that he was tied down. He frowned but then the frown was replaced with a knowing smile. “Elena.” He called. “Are you trying to molest me?”There was no reply. He chuc kled and threw his head back on the bed as he sat waiting for her to come.About three minutes had gone by.“Who pays the water bill for this place?” Ajax wondered out loud. “You use a really lot of water.”Five minutes had gone by by and he frowned. That was odd. Elena never took that long to bath. He listened carefully and that was when he heard it. The s

A STEAMY NIGHT
Raphael and Elena huddled around him quickly. “Oh my God.” The two off them chorused repeating his words.“What are you going to do?” Elena asked looking up at him.“I have no clue.” Ajax answered, his heart racing. The call ended.“Give me that.” Raphael said grabbing it from Ajax’s hands. He turned it off and placed it in his pocket. “There.” He said smiling. “Problem solved.”***Nicholas had been calling Ajax all day. His workers back at Grey’s labs had been able to created more strips following Ajax’s parents experiment and methods.They had brought wears for safety and protection in preparation for the battle/ fight.Nicholas also got tiny tracking devices to fix on any of the people so that they could track them back to their abode.***“The place is not bad.” Raphael said as soon as they got in. “Our place is better, but it’s better than the dorms in school.”Ajax could not agree more. It looked like Caroline’s apartment back when she was dating Nate.The sitting room. Two roo

RUBBING SHOULDERS WITH THE ENEMY
Ajax’s eyes scrutinized him. Now that was a lie. A big fat one. He was definitely going to keep it for himself. Now he was slowly beginning to see what Caroline was seeing.“That way, we live without fear of anything in and around our city.” Gregory added.“I would go with you on the day of the mission. I am doing this not just because I want my freedom for mainly for my love for Elena.” Ajax stated firmly. His eyes glanced at Elena who was sitting and watching them. The love and willingness to fight filled his eyes. “We stick together right?”Elena could not help the smile creeping up her face. She nodded at him. “Yes we do.”“This would be weird though.” Raphael said scratching his head. “Fighting against the people I have always loved and adored, But I am in too.”Gregory chuckled. “First of all, I really admire your willingness to join us. I really appreciate, but I am sorry you would not have to do that.”“What?” Raphael said frowning. His friends; Elena and Ajax had the sam

MEETING WITH GREGORY
First it was the Ray of sunlight that hit his eyes. It woke him up, but he did not open his eyes. He laid there for a while. Suddenly, a shadow crossed, shielding the sun away from his eyes.He slowly opened his eyes and met Elena’s brown ones.“Hey.” Ajax mumbled in his groggy night voice.“Good afternoon.” She greeted with a smile.He frowned. “Afternoon?”That was when he saw the red lipstick on her lips and her eyelashes coated in mascara with a wing liner. His eyebrows knitted deeper. She was convered in make up. Was it really not morning?He tried getting up, but Elena was on him keeping him down.“Yas.” She said as she sat up, giving him his personal space. “You have been sleeping till almost three o’clock in the afternoon.” Elena pointed out.He sat up and grabbed his watch from the drawer close to their bed. His eyes grew wide. “What? How!” He exclaimed in disbelief.“You must have been really stressed out these couple days. Have you even been sleeping?” Elena asked as she cl

ATTACK IN THE QUARTERS
She could not see the person doing it. The person blended with the darkness. She hurried towards Raphael. “Are you okay?” She whispered as she helped him up. She pulled him behind her as she enhanced her eye sight so that she could see clearly in the night.She could make out three figures. Two men and a woman. They were hiding at strategic positions.Raphael’s heart was racing erratically as he stood behind Elena. He could see barely nothing in this darkness.He glanced at Ajax. Ajax who was still dressed in his white shirt and corporate pants was crouched.Suddenly, Ajax flung his hands in the air and a figure fell to the floor, landing a little distance from Raphael. Raphael gasped in surprise.Ajax was very alert. He had no idea who their attackers were. These were one of those times he was happy that his girlfriend also had a system. She was a strong girl and could fend off these people on her own, but he could not help but still worry for her.His eyes turned to check up on

IN THE QUARTERS
“Damn bro.” Raphael said smiling and patting Ajax’s back in pride. “You are one smart ass.”Ajax threw him a smile. “Of course I am.”The two continued walking. In the dark lonely street.It was late and people had gone to bed. There was not a single soul in sight. The two young boys had fallen silent that was when they felt the cold bite of the chill wind.“Uh.. so what are.. where are we going?” Raphael said rubbing his hands against his body to create heat.“I have no idea man. I am just walking.” Ajax said turning to Raphael.The two tried to hold a serious expression but failed and ended up laughing hysterically.“Hold up.” Ajax said stopping. “Let me try Elena. Maybe she would lead us to where she is.”***Elena had gotten to the quarters, her eyes red and face covered with dried tears. She had walked all the way to the place with a heavy heart and tears spilling down her eyes till there was no tears left to cry.How did she get here? How did her sweet relationship with Ajax

THE ULTIMATE CHOICE
Elena got to the stairs and stopped. She looked back at Ajax. He was not making even the slightest move to even chase after her. It broke her heart to say the least. Was he actually choosing Nicholas and Caroline over her? Her eyes flickered to Caroline who stood at a corner. She glanced at Raphael. He shook his head at her with his expression torn between worry, disappointment, sadness and betrayal.She turned to Ajax, he still stood with shock. She could see the little pool of tears gathering in his eyes.Her heart was breaking. Was he actually not coming after her. Her vision began to get blurred as the tears that was in her eyes threatened to fall.She spun around and ran up the stairs into her room and shut the door behind her. Her breathing ragged she took in deep breaths to calm herself.Slowly the reality of everything that just happened began to dawn on her. Ajax had just chosen Caroline and Nicolas over her.She had just lost him. She had lost Ajax. Her lips parted in d

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?
Ajax, Caroline and Raphael turned around and saw Elena standing and watching them with a frown.Tension and silence descended amidst them, making the atmosphere thick. “Oh hi.” Caroline greeted with a cheerful smile, her voice light as a squeak.Suddenly, she felt a flurry of wind hit her as she saw a blur of white and then Elena was tackled into a hug.She gasped at the sudden movement. Was that how much he missed her? She could not help but smile at the duo. No, she did not feel any atom of jealousy. She had fully gotten over Ajax that she could not see him in such light anymore.As for Ajax, all he did was listen to Caroline tell the story of Elena when he heard the soft voice he had been craving to hear for days now.The sight of her felt like he had been in a dark room for a really long and was finally let out to see the light.Although his girl had frown lines on her head with a scowl and eye bags that showed that she had not been sleeping and how stressed she had been, yet she
