“Why are you asking? Think I will do the same to your father if I were to kill you?” Declan smiled, sending a chill down his back.“You won’t dare. My father will squash you like a fly if anything were to happen to me.” Jason said, shivering visibly.“You really are not that smart, if anything you are just like Nathan. Relying on your fathers for everything.” Declan chuckled. “I know that your father had you disowned but even if he were to come after me, it wouldn’t be unexpected.”“You are crazy!” Jason yelled.“Yep, you are exactly like Nathan, resorting to insults when you know that your begging and threats are futile. It’s almost amusing.”“Why are you doing this to me? I didn’t do anything to hurt May, I almost cared for her but would never hurt her.” “But you help Nathan get his hands on her, not that I minded that but you have been misleading her for a long time now and it's getting on my nerves.” Declan said crouching in front of a terrified pale faced Jason.

Declan walked into the house, closing the door behind him. Mandy watched as he walked up to the couch and sat down beside her. “Why are you still up?” he asked, looking at the figure leaning against the couch gazing at him. “Don't tell me that you were waiting for me.”Mandy sat up rolling her eyes at him. “Just tell me that you at least got rid of Jason's body this time.’“I didn't see any reason to. Besides, I didn't get the time. The boy really knows how to get on someone's nerves.” Declan murmured and turned his attention to his watch. “Even keeping me with him till 1am in the morning, what could be more annoying?”“But did you really have to kill him? I mean a good threat would have done the job”“I didn't need to, I just needed the answers and he decided it would have been better for him to delay the inevitable. Besides, I already decided to kill him the first day he was introduced to May as a potential husband.”“So did you get the money back from him?”*Silence*“Please tell
“Is there anything there worth watching?” “I'm not sure, how about you go find out and tell me later.” Ashely said with a smile. May shook her head and was about to leave when her phone pinged. She turned to see a text from Declan and her eyes widened. “Meet me at the ignition café in half an hour.” Mandy sighed and stood up walking past Ashley towards her room. Declan raised his head as the café door opened and May walked in. He raised his hands and she walked towards him. she sat down placing her bag beside her before turning to him with a smile. “Good morning.” Declan smiled. “You came, I was expecting you to, but I didn’t think that Clara was going to let you.” “Like I was going to tell her that I was meeting with Declan Kings.” May smiled. “So why did you call me here? I was thinking that you would have been with your drama queen… or is it the Titanium queen?” “Well, I have been accused of worse. I came because of our call yesterday night, supposedly after your
“You had better have a good reason to be calling now.” Declan said his voice was icier than usual. “Yes sir. I believe that we have found the herb that you needed. I will send an image right away and await your confirmation for the delivery.” “Good. Let me see it.” Declan said and dropped his phone on the table. an image popped up and his face brightened up. “Send that herb right away and make sure that it would be frozen in liquid nitrogen before it is sent over. Nothing should go wrong.” “Yes sir.” A beep after the response indicated that the call had ended and Declan shut his eyes leaning back on the couch. ~ At the other side of the city, Tom climbed into his car and drove out of a mall. He pulled out his phone and dialed a number. “Hello, who is this?” “This is Tom. I have a job for you. And it is one that you can’t fuck up on.” Tom snarled. “Oh, well, speak up; I am listening.” The voice rang with glee. “There is a very auspicious man…” “Too auspicious even for you?” “
At the Ashers’ group building, Mandy walked out of her office and saw a figure standing a few feet away from her… someone that she wasn’t in the right state of mind to see. ‘James Livingston.’ “Mr. James.” Mandy said, walking towards the second son of Livingston pharmaceuticals. “A pleasant surprise seeing you here.” “Mandy Asher.” James said, turning to her. “I just sent word that I was here to see you and here you are trying to bolt out of your office. If I didn’t know better I would have said that you were avoiding me.” “Well, do you?” “Do I what? “Know better? I suggest you don’t give yourself a lot of credit being here. What do you want?” Mandy asked impatiently. “What do you think? I am here to investigate the death of my beloved brother. I am sure that you can tell me things I would very much find delightful to hear.” “Well, you will have to come another day; or better still, find someone else to bother. I was rushing out. There is an emergency, way more important than y
Martin raised his head as soon as he heard the statement, only to see Declan in his face. He tried to move but Declan was too quick to grab him by the neck first. Martin tried to scream but the hold tightened shutting him up. Declan pulled him away in front of the table where he expected the distress button to be and pushed the man further into the couch.“Who are you?” Martin asked, seething with rage. “And how the hell did you get in here?”“That won’t be relevant now.” Declan smirked and poured his glass of wine into Martin’s mouth. “Besides, I want to be the one asking the questions here.” Martin clawed at his throat as the contents slid down into his system.“I am sure you know exactly what was inside that wine, especially since you produce it.” Martin’s eyes widened.“C…Cansacora!”“Aren’t you a sharp one?” Declan smirked, taking a seat across Martin before bringing out a small vial. “I have the antidote here and if you want to live… which I am sure you do; you will have to t
Declan turned towards the window before grabbing Mandy and pulling them both under a table. A bullet flew into the room from the window shattering glasses into the room and piercing Declan in previous places. Declan waited for a minute before raising his head to look out of the window where the bullet had come from but there was no assailant in sight. “What was that?” Mandy asked, her heart beating frantically in her chest. “If I am not mistaken, I have An assassin after me.” Declan said, pulling out the bullet from the couch. “And a very good one at that. It seems that someone is after me this time” Mandy watched Declan dust the glasses that had landed on him. “Are you alright?” “Perfect.” “Now, what are you going to do?” Mandy asked, her forehead etched in worry. “What do you think I am going to do, Mandy?” Declan asked with a smirk. “Knowing you, definitely something stupid. Declan, an assassin, is after you. Can't you consider the fact that it is possible t
“Get down!” Jason growled same time the bullet shattered the glass beside their table. May looked at Declan terrified as he pinned her to the floor. Screams blasted from the restaurant as Declan stood up tracing the trajectory of the bullet to the source. He could see a masked man in black dismantling a sniper. “Stay here. I will be back.” Declan said, grabbing his keys and rushed out of the restaurant. He walked outside and looked towards the fence where the sighted the man and a figure ran out of the building with a large case in hand. Declan took off to his car and climbed, instantly driving towards the man who was already boarding a bike. The man raised his face and saw Declan coming after him. He started his bike and zoomed off with Declan after him in a hot pursuit. May ran out of the restaurant to seeing Declan driveoff. She pulled out her phone with shaky hands and dialed his number. “I said I will be back for you. Something came up.” Declan said with urgency in his
