"Mom?!"

May yelled from inside.

"What are you doing here?" Clara hissed, folding her arms across her chest.

"I—invited him." May said, emerging from behind. "Please come in, Declan." May nudged her mom slightly by the side to make her move.

With a deep scowl on her face, Clara sulkily moved out of the way and Declan made an entrance.

"Do you like it?" Clara asked Mandy cheerfully. Mandy had arrived shortly after Declan and all of them were seated at a table, eating.

"It's so delicious, Mrs Williams." Mandy said with a bright smile.

"Ahn! Glad you love it. I made everything myself." Clara giggled, removing her hairs from her face. "I know, one wouldn't know I've got that skill too."

"I do know you have many more qualities, Mrs Williams." Mandy smiled at her.

They finished dinner and settled for dessert.

"Now everything is settled, I would love us to push through with the project." Mandy turned to May on the table.

"That would be nice. I'm sorry things have been rough lately and I

    "Did I interrupt something?" May asked walking up to Declan and Mandy. She looked at them quizzically. "Not at all. We were just about to leave." Mandy said, pushing away from Declan. She had a superior look on her face adjusting her dress as she stood up. "Tell your mom I gave my thanks for the dinner. Have a lovely night." Mandy said with ease.She did not show any sign of awkwardness as usual to Declan's surprise. Is she perhaps trying to make their affair public now? "Thank you again for coming." May replied with a forced smile. Mandy turned to leave, but tripped on her heels. "Watch out." Declan stepped in closer to her side, catching her fall."Too much wine." Mandy smiled apologetically, limping for balance. "Let me help you." Declan offered, holding her hand in his and leading her out of the Williams residence.May watched Mandy and Declan walk away, with their hands locked together and something twisted in her chest. Are they officially together now? She asked herself

    Peter, who had been watching the fight all this while from his car parked some feets away, was bewildered. He had never seen the kind of skill Declan possessed in his entire life. Was Declan even human? He wondered. Declan's gaze instantly snapped up and landed on Peter where he was parked at the side of the road. Immediately Peter saw that Declan had seen him, he froze, suddenly drenching in cold sweat. Declan started towards him in frantic steps and Peter's heart skipped a beat. His hands started the car frantically and he zoomed off. "Boss! Boss!" Peter rushed into Mr Benches office falling on his feet. Mr Bench who was startled sprang up instantly looking past Peter. He didn't see anyone with him and it added to his confusion. "What is the matter? Why are you here all alone?""Boss, he is coming. He will kill us all if he gets to us." Peter cried in panic. "What do you mean kill us?" Bench asked furiously. "I asked you to bring the head of a man to me. What are you saying

    May drove at a high speed on the empty road of the city. She had a target, to get to Declan before he started the fire. His location said he was at Jordan Smith's house. "Isn't he the business mogul that died a few days back?" May thought aloud. She wondered what Declan could possibly be looking for in his house. She turned to the other lane that led to the Smith's estate, her blood pumping from adrenalin rush as she drew closer. "There he is!" May exclaimed when she saw Declan at the entrance of the house. She quickly parked her car and jumped down. Declan heard footsteps behind him and he spun around sharply, his pistol in his hand. "It's me!" May Jerked, throwing her hands up. "May?" Declan narrowed his gaze in surprise. "What are you doing here?'"I should be asking you Declan. What are you doing here"May asked, folding her arms across her chest. She glared at Declan accusingly. Declan walked a few distance past May, glancing around."You're alone, perfect. Now climb back

    The Chief Warden sat behind his office desk, with a cigar in his mouth. He puffed a thick smoke in the air shifting his gaze to the door. "Come in." His deep voice husked as he leaned back in the chair."Sir, we have arrested the young man in question." The Warden's aid, Fisher said. "Very good. Where is he now?""We locked him away in the west cell.""That's alright. He must remain there for now and he must not receive any visitors. Understood?" The Warden yelled. "Yes sir!" Fisher stamped his feet on the floor with a salute. The Chief prison warden waved his hand dismissing Fisher. His desk phone rang at that moment and he picked it up. "Hello sir." The Chief Warden spoke first excitedly. "How's it going?" Bench's thick voice echoed from the speaker."Everything is going as planned. I can assure you the stupid boy is done for, this time." The Chief Warden spoke assuredly.Capturing Declan was a easy as eating a piece of cake that he wondered why Bench was very anxious and

    "Aghhh!"The Chief Warden howled, holding out his hand to his face. A striking pain struck through him and he instantly felt queazy. The good hand which he struck Declan with just now has turned red and battered like something that was crushed by a truck. The Chief Warden's eyes bulged from their sockets, gazing at his hand. At the damage done to it. He began to shake his hand frantically, suddenly uncoordinated and anxious."Sir! Are you alright?" Fisher, rushed to his boss, taking the broken hand in his. He gazed at it in shock then back at Declan who sat emotionless as if nothing had happened. Not understanding what just happened, Fisher swallowed, moving away from Declan and focusing fully on his boss."Sir! Sir!"Fisher yelled shaking The Chief Warden to speak what the Chief Warden didn't say a word. The Chief Warden was too stunned to move, the pain too grave for him to react. His heart beat thumped and a panic attack was foreseen. Fisher tried to help but it was too lat

    All efforts to get Declan talk were not futile. Declan only responded to questions with another question annoying the Chief Warden the more."You! You don't know what you have gotten yourself into." The chief spat. "I want to see my lawyer." Declan demanded.The chief warden smirked. A loud evil smirk that suggested that Declan must be kidding."You are so clueless. There's no such thing in here boy, your life is in my hands now." The Chief Warden gestured with his hand as he spoke."Isn't what you are doing against the law? I am entitled to a Lawyer."A mocking laughter cracked from the Chief Warden's throat. "Nobodies like yourself have no business under the protection of the law Kid. The earlier you accept that the better."Declan looked at the Chief Warden in a hard stare. The man seemed to be having a lot of fun.Declan's eyes trailed his body and paused on his broken hand. A white bandage was wrapped around it to keep it in place. The Chief Warden saw where Declan was lookin

    Mandy's grip tightened on the steering wheel, her aura emitting a burning rage. She turned sharply to the other lane, a rather reckless move for someone who didn't plan to kill herself. Driving herself that day was definitely a terrible idea. Bench's words replayed in her head multiple times and she knew it would stick with her for long. Everything Bench said was to torment her and kudos to him for a job well delivered. Not only that all he said was tormenting, it pissed her off that he was right. How could she be so stupid? Did she think she could hide the truth from Declan forever?She slammed her hand on the steering, honking the horn angrily, prompted stares from people on the street. Increasing the gear, Mandy zoomed off at enormous speed. At the Chief warden's office, the Chief Warden sat before his tray of launch. He was munching on the pork when his phone rang. "Huh?" He looked up at the unknown caller that flashed on his screen with a squinted gaze."Hello..." He said w

    The Chief Warden marched out of his office with heavy steps. This aura emitted superiority and power."Bring them out!" He ordered and the guards creaked the doors of the prison open.Declan and May looked up at them in shock. The three guards that stormed into their cell didn't look like they came to play at all. "What's going on?" May asked, panicking. She shifted closer to Declan in fret. "Just stay still, May." Declan tried to calm her down."What's the meaning of this?" Declan asked The Chief Warden. The chief warden did not reply to him but instead, he turned to his men and growled. "Now!"The guards immediately grabbed May and hauled her away from Declan's side."No—No! Let me go!" May screamed, struggling to get off their grip. Declan immediately sprang up to go after her but more men blocked his way."Don't do anything Declan, this is them trying to provoke you! I will be fine!" May yelled as they dragged her away. Declan's gaze followed her out and his features darkened

    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
