“Denver Petro Ricardo junior?”The voice on the line sounded very official. It was instantly clear this was a very serious phone call.“Who am I talking too?” Danny asked. A strange coldness settles in his bones and this cold was apart from the cancer diagnose he has received.“I am agent Black. As you realized the call is being monitored. I am currently on speaker with agent Light too.” The serious voice answers.“What do you want from me? What government agency are you working for?” Danny questions.“Department Science and Advancement. We wish to arrange a serious meeting with you. Do accept the request, sir.” Agent Black continue in his serious voice.“Do you want me to come to your office?”“Not yet sir. Before we makes this official, we would like to have a general conversation with you. Do accept the offer sir.”Denver looked through the office. He has been looking for a way to reach out to officials but knowing how much power his family carriers he wasn’t certain who to trust a
Denver and Joslin both looked at the men. The words ringing in their ears. "What do you mean?" Denver finally asked. He truly don't know what to think."Just what we said." Agent Light was very serious."Why would you make up such a story?" Denver was starting to get angry. He looked at Joslin who just sit there with narrowed eyes looking at the men. Over the years she did noticed her mother sometimes acted very odd. In truth she always thought it was business related."The life you lead is just an illusion. Your mother entered a highly secret program. The reason we choose her was because she had no relatives and she readily agree to the experiments." Agent Black said while his hand rested on a folder."I don't believe you." Denver stated with simmering anger. "What do you really want from us? Any idiot knows what belongs to the government gets back where it belong. Why the fuck wait until I was diagnose with cancer?""We understand your anger sir. We have been observing both of you
The reality of the truth…“Open your eyes.”Denver hears the stern voice coming from a distance. He feels confused. He also don’t want to open his eyes. He don’t want to know the truth.“I said you should open your eyes. The thing that mostly irritates me about you is this constant need to ignore me.” He said in clear expiration.“Sorry sir.” He opened his eyes looking into the over familiar angry face of his father. He frowns a moment wondering if it all was a dream. He looked sat the man…they said he was in reality his brother.“Why are you still in bed?”“I don’t know. I think I had one weird dream. I met strange men. They told me a story I don’t understand.” He tries to get up but realized he wasn’t in bed. As he slowly takes in the situation he realized his lower body was covered in water.“Where am I?” he asked openly confused. “Sir, are you sure I am in bed?”“I don’t have time for your nonsense Danny. I am going away for a couple of days. Missus Finley will be in charge.”Dann
“Danny where the hell are you?” the woman was seriously angry. It sounded like her voice was coming from somewhere in the darkness. He can hear his own heart beat wondering why on earth he was hiding like a frightened child.“I swear to god, when I get my hands on you I will make you pay.” She warns sounding almost like she was breathing down his neck. He instinctively rubs his neck. A sudden iciness washes over his skin. He turns thinking he was still in the tunnels but his current reality has posted him to a very traumatic event in his youth. He had just turned thirteen…“Danny, I have to go away for a while. Please be a good boy to missus Finley.”He watched his father left the house in Rumble’s Corner. He stood there frowning just knowing he has heard those words a thousand times.“Where are you going?” he asked the over familiar sounding question. “It’s my birthday sir.”“Denver, get away from that window. How many times must I tell you not to look?”He turned facing the woman wh
“Raven…” Denver slowly sit up straight in the bed. He looked at the woman who has repeatedly chosen him.“Hey, you are awake.” She quickly comes closer to the bed. She sits down beside him. Her still worried eyes quickly travels over him. Whatever she saw seemed to satisfy her. “How do you feel?”“Hurting all over. My mind also feels a bit groggily.”“What do you remember?”“How long am I here with you?”“Denver…almost a month.” She looked again worriedly into his eyes.“What do you mean?” he sits motionless trying to search his memory.“Do you remember where I found you Denver?”“I am not sure.” He throws the covers from his body. As he was getting up he felt a kind of tightness around his fingers. It feels like his body was sizzling with electricity. Puzzled, he looked instinctively at his left hand. He instantly recognized the ring. Now that he stood upright, he can feel his strength was fast returning. What still was unclear was his immediate memories.“The ring…” he holds his han
Denver’s keen hearing heard the commotion within the reception area. He sits forward in his chair reaching underneath the desk. He searches with his long fingers until he found the hidden panel beneath the desk. With his open palm he placed it on top. The computer instantly opened on his desk.“Raven…” He studies the men.“My brothers.” She said frowning. “I slipped away from them. I wonder how they managed to find me.”“I take it they don’t approve about our relationship either?”“The Dark men, you best stay away from them.” Cathy Cole decided to answer.“What do you know about them?”“We are enemies.” She said flatly.“Now they assume I will follow all your stupid rules. I am my own man.”“You carries the Ricardo name. That makes you the enemy whether you like it or not Denver.”The computer instantly shut down and disappeared from sight. Denver stood up and walk to the door. He opens it.“What do you want?”Denver went back into the office but leave the door opened. He sits behind
The sounds of gunfire split the air again. The people in the office each found a place to hide. It took a moment before Denver and the Dark men shook the fear from their bodies.“Words, keep a close eye on Raven.” Denver was removing his jacket. The material was restricting his movements. His white shirt was splattered with blood but he ignores his appearance as he reached for the door.“Sir,” Eyes and Runner was just there.“Who was shooting?”“Three SUV’s parked across the street. The men are circling the building.” Eyes quickly explains.“We need to catch one of them. I want to know who gives them orders.”Runner turned and was gone. Denver walked towards one of the hotel suites. He opened the door. That was one of the suites he knows are never occupied because it has a hidden door. He stood a moment going through what he remembered from his mother’s past. He step towards the door just beside the bathroom. He opens it and step inside with Eyes right behind him. They made a quick an
“Denver…”“In here.”“Good you are ready. Remember, once we return you need to check in with Clarice and Lady X.” Brother Matthew advice.“I know the drill. When do you think they will allow me to leave?”“I really don’t know my friend. I know I am not allowed to ask but why are you really here?”“I am not sure either. It would seem my whole life is one major mess. The moment I think I am on my own path, someone would derail me.”“I like you Denver.” Matthew step closer. He carefully looked around.“Is something wrong?” Denver looked at his odd behavior.“You should be careful.” Matthew whispered.“I know. I am. I trust nothing and no one but I do need answers.”“Good.”Slipping out the side gate and leaving the monastery grounds, both men run until they reach the borderline of Ricardo Saint-Claire. They only has to look briefly behind them to know they are always followed.Denver feels the stress leaving his body as the time passed, he feels himself slowly coming alive while he conti
