Denver Ricardo junior step down from the private airplane in Ricardo Saint-Claire. He brushed a moment across his face enjoying the thickness of his beard. His eyes concealed behind dark glasses. He looked a moment back towards the interior of the plane holding his hand. His other hand holds onto the sports bag sling over his shoulder. Raven step outside taking his hand. She briefly looked into his concealed his. She smiled faintly. “You look like someone on a mission,” “I am babe.” His fingers entwined with hers. “You never said what the intended plan is?” Denver walked past the car the company has arranged. He was heading towards the exit. He liked the fact that Raven stayed closed to his side. He hailed a taxi before helping her inside. “You again,” The driver scowled but also looked curious. “Yes, it’s me.” Denver smiled getting in the front. “Get into the back, fool.” “I don’t think so. Besides I need to help you navigate where I want to go.” Denver looked ahead his eyes
Denver step into the house he had grown up in until recently. The moment he step over the threshold he realized someone was living there. He carefully dropped his sports bag close to the door. The place was clean but it was clear objects has been moved around. “Hello!” he called. Receiving no answer he start to move systematically throughout the house. It was finally cleared the person occupies his old bedroom. It was a woman judging from the clothes. “Who the fuck?” he reached for his phone and dialed his father. He received no answer. Turning he went towards the door going outside. A quick look around, when he saw his neighbor. “Hello missus Finley.” He waved trying to look friendly but feeling extremely annoyed. “Hello,” she crossed her arms over her chest the moment he stood in front of her. “I hope you are well. Missus Finley, who is living in my house?” “You should be ashamed of yourself.” She immediately scowled. “What did I do?” he asked openly puzzled. “I can’t believe
Denver stood frozen for a moment. He saw the blood spreading across the shirt in the form a flower. Almost like in slow motion he watched Lisa dropped onto the floor screaming. He lift his head seeing Jason Clarke running for the door. He briefly heard a commotion outside but his eyes reverted back to the girl on the floor. “Lisa…” he finally found his voice. “It hurts,” she said fear in her eyes. “Bella, look for the taxi outside. Tell the driver to help me.” He kneel beside Lisa reaching for her hand. “I am not sure what to do?” he said honestly. “I feel cold.” Her fingers grab hold of his wrist. Her eyes slowly closed. Denver moved to pick her up into his arms. He only now noticed that Bella never moved. He was moving fast towards the door. As he was rushing down the drive way he looked relieved when he saw Greg ready and waiting for him. Both men now in the taxi driving fast in the direction of the nearest Clinic. Both men knew they won’t make it to a hospital. Jason was run
While he looked at the pointed gun, he made a choice. The family structure is like a maze, and for him to learn he must move into the maze finding his own path... "I am Denver Ricardo. I will rise to my own supremacy." He look around trying to understand what's happening. This seem like a test of his abilities. He closed his eyes and settles his heartbeat. “Let me out,” Denver shakes the cages from where he just woke inside. It was quickly clear he won’t receive help. Taking a deep breath he went and stood in the circle of the cage. There seemed to be two exits but both are locked. “What the fuck is it with these people?” he questions the air around him. Sitting down in the center he does his best to calm the noise in his head. He realized he may as well just wait to understand what the situation was. “I hope you are okay, Raven.” He looked at his signet ring. Whatever the reason was, it wasn’t taken from him. It took a couple of minutes before he realized he was hearing noises com
Denver...Raven Dark climbed from Greg’s taxi in front of Craven’s Hill Mansion. She approached the front door, just walking past the guards. She was a little perplexed. The older guy who entered the bar…she was still curious what he told the footballers making them followed him outside. She intended to follow when Denver’s driver appeared. It was her silent cue to follow. “Who are you?” Bella Simone quickly stood from where she had been sitting. Her eyes quickly moved over the woman entering, dressed in black leather, looking drop-dead-gorgeous. Raven eyed the College girl and smiled briefly. She shrugs her shoulders before wondering through the downstairs of the Mansion. It was quickly clear the girl was staying there clearly very comfortable. “I ask again, who are you?” Bella approach with an attitude. “I heard you,” “Why don’t you answer then?” “I don’t want to, simple as that.” Raven looked at her looking bored. She went and sit down close to the window. She has a perfect vi
The drums are beating… The sound was loud disturbing the peace.“Get up,” the order short and harsh.Denver woke from the chill on his skin. He stayed motionless but actively listening. The whole sound he was hearing was that of his heart beat.The drums are vibrating within him. He moved into a sitting position. His skin start to crawl…instinct warning him about impending danger. He moved. The axe beside him hit the floor where he sat minutes ago.“What the fuck?” he scrambled quickly onto his feet turning. He saw them like a pack of dogs, teeth exposed with snarling sounds slipping over their lips. He step backwards wondering what the hell was next. Things keeps changing continuously.“Stay,” Billy-Bob snarls lifting the axe again.Denver quickly search the place where he woke up. It appears to be another type of warehouse. The opening of a door draw all of their attention. Aiden Cole step inside.“The rule is simple, stay alive. Denver, I have send men to your mansion.”“What the he

Inside is proof just how deceptive appearances can be. “Ariel…” The man kneel in front of her. The scared face woman just solemnly looked at his bowed head. She finally touch him on the shoulder. He stood before briefly kissing her hand. “Talk to me.” She orders softly. “We didn’t find him. There were three of them. I only managed to catch one.” “Okay…” Ariel looked at him. He seemed edgy. “What’s wrong?” “I am not sure. The girl…” he was hesitant. “What about her? You know I hate it when you talking like this.” “Her name is Bella Simone.” Ariel suddenly stood motionless. She slowly turned and went to sit in her chair beside the window. She suddenly look a different woman. “Take her to one of the special bedrooms.” “Are you sure?” “I am. Don’t question me.” “I am sorry, Ariel.” The man quickly slipped from the house. "Ricard

" his eyes searches Raven's face. " I am. What's going on?" "I don't know. Joslin can you explain what's happening?" "It's your job to figure out your own path. I was expressly told not to interfere. " "Then why are you here?" Denver felt like hitting something. This new behavior of him is also worrisome."Your guards called about intruders...or rather Bella. What's with the girls that keep showing up in your places? "I didn't even know about them." he snap before frowning. " The last time I spoke with Bella, it was the night when we found her cousin being attack in the alley in Rover's Cut. They had left together. I think I told them to

It was clear they need to convince her they are honorable in their intent.“What do you need to know that would convinced you to help us” Denver asked reaching for Raven’s hand.“Who are you really?” she asked flatly.“My name is Denver Ricardo.

I can help you with immediate effect.”“No one can truly leave this city. I have tried.” Moon Dark said sounding anxious in remembering.”“This town was built on lies and deceit.

We can take you all along but at first, we need the girl.”“Hello, you fools?” McAllen giggles when he noticed the collective was looking at him.“McAllen, name your price.” Vincent Saint-Clair

These actions will tell if they will survive as a family,Raven just allowed people to carry her forward. At the end of the street, she found herself alone. She knew Denver has blend into the background.Then suddenly a crowd of people mingled past her. The side alley men was checking her out but she didn’t pay them much attention.“Follow me,” one of the man suddenly whispered.“Excuse me!” Startled she looked around. Amongst the crowd of people only strangers, intently she searched with her eyes. She catches sight of a woman who definitely appeared to look like she was focused on her. She wonders why the woman seemed familiar.The core of her instinct tells her she was the one that has spoken. The woman was at the end of another street, looking straight at her, waiting for her to follow.“Who are you? A

Since the abduction of their children; they had becone the errand boys for one crazy man.Denver hold tightly onto the briefcase. He briefly looked at Raven. They no longer feel the need to talk. Both found a way to connect with each other."Hello sir. I have reserved the room for you." The hotel manager eagerly walked ahead of them.

I am going to approach the mansion now.""Be careful. We don't know what trap she might have set. ""I know. That's one devious woman." Denver looked at the estate across from where he stood.

The black sport car was also his idea.Once he started the car it simmers into visibility. While he was being transported back to his past to
"Denver; open your eyes." the voice calls beside him. He looked puzzled trying to see who was calling him. It was clear the fool didn't realized his eyes was opened.He tries to get loose from the shackles but it took a moment before he understood his body was in reality motionless."Will you focus." the male voice said behind him."Where are you?" he forced his lips to move."I am behind you.""Why don't you help me?" He asked with growing frustration."I already helped you. This you must do on your own. You don't focus. Look around you.""I am." he said annoyed."No you are not. Look around. You are not tied to that wall.""Danny..." he heard his name.Denver moved his body. He nearly fell flat on his face before he understood he was free with movement. He quickly looked around until he saw her."Lisa..." he kneel beside her naked body. She feels cold and it was clear the sexual damage that was done to her body."I don't want to live anymore.

Denver stood looking at the girl he always thought was the most beautiful girl in the world. He briefly looked at his hand. The throbbing was less intense. He quietly wonders if he had worn the ring earlier; might he was noticed what was really gling on. He knows the girl in front of him will also disappear since he had watch her leave this world."Danny..." Lisa stood looking over the lake. The water was calm."Why did you ask me to come here?

He knows he was walking in the footsteps of the past. His reality and her current one was different. He stood beside her waiting until she was ready to talk."You are Denver Ricardo.

She fina
Denver placed his open palm on the palm reader. He watched Raven following him. The twins joined hands placing theirs on the palm reader. The monitors seemed to pulled them into a kind of vortex. They saw each other being pulled into different directions. It was quickly clear tthat no one has a choice. Denver suddenly made his appearance in the house on Rumble's Corner. He found himself standing in front of the door. He knew he just need to step through back into his past. He looked back but the only thing he noticed was the curtains moving from the house just across from his."Why are you just standing there boy?" His father suddenly stood in the now opened door. He looked displeased."I am coming." he looked back. Everything seemed the same but it's not. Taking a deep breath. "Might as well find out what this was all about." he told himself."Where have you been Denver," Daniel Ricardo looked very annoyed. "I am sorry. But why are you angry?""You really dare to ask me that quest
