"Just name it.""There will be a little tweak in what you're asking.""It's just for you to pick a partner, Declan. "I will only recommend it. Leave your HR to their job to make the final decision."Mandy heaved a sigh "It's my company Declan and I....""Things should be done the right way regardless.""Okay. If you insist." Mandy rolled her eyes, slapping the file shut. She had guessed that Declan would pick May and was ready to work with her if that meant making it up him. But it seemed he was not a big fan of the idea. Declan nevertheless nodded in agreement. He obviously wanted this opportunity for May, but also believed she should get it by her own merit not because he picked her in. She was competent and the best person for the job. The HR will spot that right away. Mandy shifted from her office seat, standing on her feet. "Since you can't pick me a partner, can you at least accompany me to a meeting with one?" "I'm free for the next couple of hours.""Let's make good use o

It was the opening ceremony. May Williams sat in her living room sipping from her champagne glass. She was dressed in her night robe, her hair dropped free at her back. Footsteps approached from the hallway. "You have to be kidding me! What are you doing dressed like that?! The ceremony is few hours!""Not now mom, I already told you I'm not going.""Hell you won't. Now get up now!""There she goes again" May rolled her eyes. "I will do more if you don’t lift your ass off that seat. Do you even know what you're doing? How will you miss a great opportunity like this one?""There’s nothing to miss. She won't pick me so forget it.""And what makes you think that? You’re very much qualified. You're young, smart and single handedly revived a dying company to stand tall. I bet there's no other person more qualified than you're."May flashed a fake smile. "That was quite flattering. But you won't understand."May turned away, her attention snapping back to her phone. Clara gazed at her dau

Nathan's scowl deepened. It was as though hot steam fumed from his body. "But..." May began in confusion, then paused with a flash in her eyes. Realization struck her. Could Nathan be here for the same reason as everyone else?"OMG." Her hands flew to her mouth. She didn't ask for any of this.~"Thanks for coming." "It was a pleasure. What you did here today was exceptional. Keep the good work going." "Oh I will. Have a safe drive" Mandy shook hands with the last guest and watched his ride leave. She turned to her company. "It's just us now" She smiled, glancing around. Everywhere was empty, like it wasn't swamped with dinner guests just some moments ago."Champagne?" "Water." May's tone was cold. "A glass of champagne and water please." Mandy called out to the bartender.Moments of silence past between the ladies. They had a lot to say to each other but seemed to be waiting for the first to speak up."Why did you do it?" May started. "The Mandy's movement? You know, growing

At the Ashers' residence, Two men sat at the living room bearing gifts. They were dressed in a neat blue suits with their shades on. Mandy constantly glanced at the entrance, looking out for Declan. She had called him as soon as the men showed up. She didn't want to let them in at first, but they mentioned they were sent by Jordan Smith. Out of courtesy, Mandy had let them in but she was not letting them go anywhere close to her grandpa. Once bitten, twice shy. "Our boss would come himself, but he had an emergency.""Tell him I received his call in with thanks." Mandy gave a tight smile "Can we go in now? We have gifts for The Director.""Oh no—my grandfather does not receive visitors. Everyone see me instead.""We insist ma'am. Our boss wants us to present these gifts to the Director himself. He also wants to know how his very good friend is doing... Through our eyes, of course.""Tell your boss his friend is recovering and his granddaughter appreciates his kindness." May's tone

Declan stepped onto the porch of the Smith's villa, about to take the door handle. The shrill sound of his ringtone erupted, bringing him to a halt. He let out a frustrated groan before fishing out his phone from his pocket. "Hello?" He growled and listened to the caller say something. "On my way, now" He dropped the call without waiting for a reply. Glancing one last time at the door that stood between him and his target, he let out a low groan before turning to leave. The next morning, Jordan woke up in the arms of his hoes. They had a pleasure filled night and celebrated to the fullest. He was reluctant to get out of bed. He might as well take some days off now his competition has been struck out. He got off the bed regardless, eager to read the morning papers and what it has to say about the abrupt dismissal of the Titanium queen. "Titanium my foot." He scoffed. After hours of freshening up, Jordan Smith sat at the table head in a golden robe. A banquet has been prepared be

Where did he go?" Tom asked one of his students when he realized he had lost Declan. They had been watching him from a tall tower, but got distracted when their boss called."I have no idea. He was just right there." Tom's brows etched in worry. "Find him, now! ""Right away master." The student turned away and put a call across to the surveillance operator. Immediately, the operator gave him feedback. "Master, he is currently in the basement. What should I do? He acts suspicious and is before the painting ""The painting!?" How did he get there!""Just say the word master, what should I do with him."Tom breathed in heavily, "I'm not sure what his role is in everything that went wrong but I'm sure the boss will be glad if we get rid of him.""It will be my most pleasure to do the boss's wish.""Very good Jeremy, take Jonna with you. I have taught you two so well, bring him to me, in whole or pieces.""It will be my greatest delight." With a curt nod, Jeremy left to search for his p

"! Master! One of Jason's menscreamed, racing to where Tom was. "Keep it down boy! What's the matter" Tom barked, jerking up from his seat instantly."Master— he— our boys." The man's hand pressed on his knee for support, panting. "What boys? Get yourself together and speak properly"The man paused to recollect. His heart raced so fast that he couldn't put his words together."I saw him— he killed them. Jeremy and Jonna are gone." "What do you mean gone.”“They're dead, master. That beast of a man killed them.” “That's unbelievable!"“End my life should I joke with something like this. I saw the man take them down with one blow. He is not human at all, he fought them like a beast"Tom fumed. There's no way his two most powerful men were dead. He trained Jeremy and Jonna himself and could vouch for their skill anywhere. Now what does this man mean that they are dead? How can one man take them down?"Where did this happen. " Tom seethed. "In the basement."“Come and show me. They

Nathan furrowed his brows in thought. How best will he abduct May without raising an alarm? He needed a smooth strategy that would go unnoticed. A thought crossed his mind and he called someone on the phone."Hi, we have a go ahead to attack. What do you have in mind?"Nathan asked and waited for a response."This sounds like a perfect plan. Proceed and give me a call when everything is settled. Nathan dropped the call, the side of his mouth curved in a wry smile. "Now everything will be mine at last." He gloated.At a restaurant downtown. May sat across Jason and waited for their orders. Jason stared at May intensely making her conscious of herself "What? Why are you staring at me like that?" Her voice was low and she batted her lashes in shyness. Seeing her reaction, Jason chuckled. "You're simply so beautiful and have achieved so much at such a young age. I can't help but admire you.""C'mon, whatever I have achieved cannot be compared to what you are. I still look up to you

Declan walked down the stairs cleaning his eyes as he descended with a clear smile on his face. Two days had passed since he had a blood fest against Mandy and the men that she had brought. He walked into the dining room and grabbed the coffee pot for the machine and poured himself a cup. “Hmm, a cup of coffee first thing in the morning… who are you and what have you done with my Kazuka?” Declan turned to see his mother seated at the table with a plate of toasts and fruits before her. “Good morning mother.” Declan said, walking up to her. He kissed her on the cheek before taking a seat beside her. “Someone woke up on the right side of the bed today.” Elizabeth said with a smile. “What's making my boy all cheery in the morning?” “Nothing… I was just thinking of my plans for the day.” Declan replied, taking a sip from the cup in his hand. “Must be a very interesting day you have planned out for yourself if this is the kind of expression you have first thing in the morning.” “I

May watched as Mandy glared at Declan with eyes full of hate while he smirked at her while looking at the men that had arrived with her. “Please tell me that you have more people coming.” Declan said with a smile. “Even the people you sent to kidnap May were more than this.” As if in response, a van pulled up behind Declan's car and over a dozen men climbed out of it with clubs and steel pipes in their grasp, with some of them holding daggers and short knives. “Now this is looking promising.” Declan said, licking his lips in anticipation. May climbed out of the car walking towards Declan with her hands slightly raised. “Mandy, you don't need to do this.” She said softly. “You can just tell your men to leave and we can all just forget that something like this ever happened.” “Shut up!” Mandy snapped, turning her glare to May who shuddered under the killing intent that Mandy poured out. “This is all his fault. My grandfather is dead and it's all his fault.” She yelled in pain

In the evening of that day, Declan had gone to pick up May for their date. “You know you don't need to do this Declan, I also have a car.” May said walking up to a black car parked a few feet away from her with Declan leaning against it. “That would be absurd. Imagine asking someone out on a date and then deciding to let the person drive there.”Declan said, shaking his head, opening the door for her to get in. “That's no different than asking the person to meet up with you for a business lunch.” “It's the thought behind it that matters Declan… God, are all the men of the King family stubborn?” May said with a sigh while Declan chuckled in response driving away. “so, what about Mandy? Any news about her after your meeting today?” “Well, I got reports that she was approached by a lady and was taken to a station for questioning. The company was given a trial in a few days and from there everything will play out.” Declan shrugged. “Not if you cause the company to fold.” May said

Mandy kept her gaze fixed on the door leading to the room where Declan was having his interview with Celeste. The door opened and Declan walked out with a calm look on his face. Mandy stood and walked towards him. “Declan!” She yelled before grabbing his collar to the surprise of everyone present. “Mandy Asher… quite a surprise for me to see you here… don't you think?” Declan said with a soft smile. “You are happy, aren't you? You have finally ruined my family and gotten your revenge.” She said, gripping his shirt tighter. “Your questions are like asking a poor man who just win the lottery if he is happy winning a huge amount of money.” Declan said gripping her hand. “Of course I am happy.” He wrenches her hands off his clothes and straightened his shirt. “Miss Asher I would love it if you don't come onto me like that again.” Declan added and made to walk away but she blocked him. “Why don't you finish what you started? You have already killed my grandfather; adding me to th

May's eyes widened in shock. She looked at the man who looked nothing above his early thirties before shaking her head in disbelief. “So you are old? A hundred?” She asked, still in doubt. “Can we not put a number on it? Surprised that I am around your grandpa’s age?” Declan asked with an amused look. “Shocked? Declan, you don't look a day above thirty five.” She replied before reaching for her glass of wine. “Well, I suppose it was one of the reasons families decided to go against us. Certain families after discovering our secret became afraid. I suppose that was the reason the Deckers family decided to launch Project K-11. They wanted to make soldiers that could match our prowess which as you should know ended in failure while claiming the lives of many people. Four families… all jealous of the power we had decided to band against us and send us out of the city that we had built as a home for ourselves. They had even nailed the blame of Project K-11 on our family and after som

Declan reached for his ringing phone and his cold face softened a little. He raised the phone to his ear and answered the call. “Hello May.” “Hey Declan, em… sorry to disturb you but I just saw the news and decided to call you. I never had the chance to tell you thank you for everything.” Declan smiled at the nervousness in May's voice. “No problem. It was my pleasure.” He replied. Any other thing?” “Are you busy?” She asked. “Right now? No, not at all. Is there any problem?” “Not right now. Will you be free tonight? I was thinking that maybe we should meet up and discuss things over.” May said, her voice beginning to shake slightly. “I can make time. What do you want to talk about?” He asked with a smirk. “Nothing ser-. I will let you know when we meet.” May said. “Alright then… text me the time and I will come pick you up.” Declan said, his face harboring a grin that threatened to tear past his face. “Alright. It's a date then.” Mandy said and ended the call. Declan s

‘Reporting the death of the patriarch of the Asher family, Asher Keaton was reported dead having passed away yesterday in the early hours of the afternoon.’ Declan looked at the news on the television before turning to the phone in his hand. He had over a dozen missed calls from Mandy which he suspected was for him to chew him out. He turned to the maid and pointed at the wine shelf before turning back to the news. ‘News reaching the media now is pointing towards the Asher industries about another of their multiple evil deeds against the city. A construction scandal done towards a project of building a city facility which was supposedly done with fake materials.’ ‘Experts are being brought in to investigate the nature of the materials used to build the facility.’ ‘The Asher industries are also said to be on the very brink of bankruptcy with their stocks fallen before the twenty-five percent mark.’ “This is actually a very good cause for one to celebrate.” Declan said, reaching fo

Mandy looked around the office with a heavy sigh before going back to the work she was handling on her laptop. It has been a week since May had announced her innocence and sued the Asher to court. The trial had gone against them, making them pay over a hundred and fifty million in compensation at the demand of the Williams. After that, bits and bits of the company's confidential data happened to find their way into the social media giving them a black name among the public. The company stocks had fallen by over forty seven percent and it wasn't rising back, leaving the company a few steps away from folding due to bankruptcy. Her attention is drawn away when the door of her office opens letting Asher in. “Another one has been released.” He said with a bitter smile on his face. “This is getting worse than I expected.” Mandy groaned and slumped back against her chair in despair. She blamed everything on Declan… it was all his fault all for a pointless revenge due to an old injury

Mandy sipped from the glass in her hand, her gaze fixed on the television before her. On the table before her, some files laid open with a pad at the edge of the table. ‘An announcement has been scheduled this afternoon for the public residents of the city. The host of the announcement is non either than May Williams -.’ “Pfft!.” Mandy spilled out a mouthful of wine onto the files in front of her. She gazed at the screen in shock… May was alive meaning that Declan must have either saved her or the men weren't able to get to her in time. Either way, her plan had been flunked. She exhaled and gripped the glass in her hand till it shattered spilling over the floor. She stood up from the couch and walked out. At the other side of the city, May looked around and exhaled softly. She was in the Williams industries and was surrounded by different reporters that she had invited for an announcement. She turned towards a corner of the hall where a figure dressed in black with its face
