Governor Clark barged into Governor Frederick's office. His men were scattered across the country and at the governor's villa. One would think there was a declaration of war from Governor Clark with the amount of ammunition he brought with him.

Governor Kendrick stood up immediately when he saw his old time friend.

"I told you to let me handle this."

Governor Kendrick seethed, feeling enraged.

"I can't listen to you anymore. The same man you claimed you are searching for had kidnapped my son and I won't stop till I find that scumbag and kill him with my bare hands. I only stopped by to inform you that my men and I have arrived and we look forward to a hospitable stay in your city."

Governor yelled. Governor Fredrick was about to say something but governor Clark didn't give him a chance and stormed out of the office.

Governor Fredrick’s desk phone erupted and he picked it up angrily.

"Your Excellency, is there a problem? I see men from the other city littered everywhere in two, causi

    Robinson Clark looked at his reflection in the mirror in admiration. The D day was finally here and he had mixed feelings. While he was elated and had always looked forward to this day, he was equally anxious."How do I look?"He asked Mark who was standing just behind him."Superb"Mark said, making a star sign with his fingers to hit his point and Robinson laughed lightly.

Worry began to creep in and he looked at Mark by his side."Have you heard from Biggie this morning?""His phone wasn't reachable and I thought to try again shortly after."Mark said and Robinson turned, looking straight to the road. Could there be a problem? He asked himself inwardly.He didn't know the hotel Biggie had gone to, else he would make a quick stop there before going for his event. But wouldn't that be risky? This day was the long awaited day and he h

See you around," Declan said walking away.Declan entered the back of the car with Mandy and they drove off. They were on their way to the venue when Tye called him. "Hey D. You can't take that route.

    Hands rammed together in applause as Mandy walked up to the stage. She wore a very bright smile on her face, waving at everyone. She got on stage and released a breath of fresh air."Thank you everyone. This means a lot to me, considering how horrific and heart wrenching the last two weeks of my life has been. In all, I'm delighted to let you all know that Mandy Asher is back and here to stay!"She screamed and everyone cheered her on. When the noise came down. She adjusted on her two legs getting ready for her speech."I have come up here because someone called me out and as much as I appreciate him, I return all the glory to God. You know, it's really hard to be in business. Because our line of work has to do with making profits and more profits and no one wants to encounter loss. Though loss is inevitable, we try as much as we can to cut it down and avoid it. I'm sure we all can relate." She chucked and everyone nodded their heads in affirmation."Well, last month, just like every

    Guards! Tie and bring me along!" Governor Clark barked and his men marched up to Robinson and bonded him, then hauled him away from the crowd. Everyone stared after him in awe and some with disgust. “What a scam!” “To think I nearly fell into this blood sucking scheme of theirs!” Oh! How I love the fact that they met their match!” Men and women whispered among themselves at the side. Not long after Robinson was taken away, he was forgotten. All attention turned at Mandy and Declan. It seemed as if the event was all about them from the onset because it was suddenly hijacked and was turned to her welcome back party. “You look really pretty. No one would be able to tell you went to hell and back.” Some of the business women who clustered around Mandy commended. “Oh don’t flatter me. I am grateful to God and my doctor.” Mandy said, sending a glance Declan’s way. The womens’ eyes followed the line of her sight and they all cheesed. “You two look really good together. You got the

    “My pound of flesh." Declan's icy voice spat as he cocked his gun.Robinson's eyes narrowed at Declan."I know you, you're that bitch's fuck boy. Have you not done enough?!"Robinson seethed, hate evident in his eyes."Call her a bitch one more time and I will blow your brains out!"Robinson glared at Declan with so much intensity .

    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
