“Hmm, didn't actually think that someone like him would be so eager to make a move already towards the other family.” Declan mused. “What are you talking about?” May’s voice came from the phone in his hand. “This isn't something you should meddle with… it isn't any of your—“ Declan paused before sighing softly. “Then again, I suppose that this is your business. You have been brought into this whether you like it or not.” “Declan, you need to stop talking around in circles. What is any of that supposed to mean?” “I am sorry to say this, but Timo wasn't the only one using you to get to me.” Declan said. “Wait, that is not possible. No one else should be using me against… no, the Ashers?” Declan broke into a small smile. “Actually someone else would have figured it out if she had heard the Ashers name from the mouth of someone using her.” Declan said. “So Mandy is using me? Why? You have nothing against her.” May said. He could feel the confusion in her voice. “That would be a

‘Breaking news reporting… the Kingston family… a forgotten family said to be involved in the embezzlement scandal of Senator Ethan Rathburne… is now said to be existing in the city under another name as a method of escaping all charges to their original name. ‘ ‘The Kingston family is now said to go by the name of the Silversons, a family well known in the business industry.’ Asher muted the television before turning to Mandy who was seated across from him in the living room. “Is that supposed to mean something?” Mandy asked, her face etching in a serious expression. “Mandy. I have been following up with your actions recently and I have to say that most of them are smart and would actually help you against Declan King.” Asher nodded slowly. “And I am sure that you are aware that it wasn't only the Asher family that had made a move against the King's family in getting them out of this town.” “Yes I am aware. I also know that we are assisted by the Deckers family and two other fami

Zita sipped on the coffee in her hand looking around the cafe. A couple of days had passed since the release of the Kingston family dirty deeds and she had been on the fringes since then. The Kingstons had all been apprehended and taken into custody with the family head and major powerhouses of the industries receiving heavy sentences and the little one who had involvement in the family control receiving sentences that wasn't large compared to the family head but still enough to shake her; and now… all she could think about was her future in jail. “Did you hear about the story about the Silversons industries?” She turned around and noticed a couple of men sitting behind her sipping on their coffee with one of them holding a newspaper. “You mean after the exposure of everything they had done?” “Yes. It seems that the family actually had everything taken away from them. The company itself is now bankrupt with some of their subsidiaries folding up. Soon, there wouldn't be a Silverso

A white car pulled up in front of the skyscraper that belonged to Zita’s family and the men in suits standing in front of the building rushed towards the car. The door opened and Zita climbed out of the car before walking towards the door as a guard climbed into the car driving it off. Zita made her way into the company while nodding to greetings that made their way towards her ears. She got into her private elevator and exhaled. The elevator door opened and she walked out towards her office. “Miss Evans!” A call made her stop her tracks. She turned to see her secretary running up to her. “Sorry for disturbing you… but someone came to see you and is waiting in the conference room.” “Who is it?” Zita asked annoyance forming all over her face. “Your father's personal secretary. She said that she had a message from your father and some instructions meant for you and your ears alone.” The secretary replied. “Thank you very much.” Zita said with a smile before walking off towards

Declan sipped on the glass of red wine in his hand while going through a pad in his grasp while leaning back on a couch in the living room. His attention is drawn towards his vibrating phone on the table in front of him. He reached forward and grabbed it before breaking into a smile. *Beep* “Hello Serene.” “Hello boss. Good day.” A soft voice floated into his ears. “Good day to you too. I suppose you have good news for me?” “Hopefully so. I completed my infiltration into the Evans company’s secrets today and got everything I am sure you will love to hear.” Declan’s smile widened at the voice that was brimming with confidence. “Oh… well then, I am listening.” “I managed to find out the various names of the senators that were supposedly put into positions of power with the Evans family influence. They total up to six in really high positions and towards nine in positions that can be overlooked.” “Also, the Evans family happened to have a project that they had launched under a fa

Timothy turned to his ringing phone, grumbling incoherent words as he reached for it. He looked at the phone and broke into a warm smile before answering the call. “Hello Z, are you coming over tonight?” He asked, his face beaming. “I could really do with you over here right now.” “Tim, I am at the station.” Timothy's expression froze when he heard Zendaya's panicking voice over the phone. “The station?! What happened?” He asked, rising from the couch. “I was leaving the company this evening when I was approached by two FBI agents. They took me in for ‘questioning’.” Zita’s voice was quivering in fright. “I think they went to get the rest of my family.” “Okay, just wait for me… I am on my way and don't tell them anything.” Timothy said running out of the house. At the station, Zita raised her head at the call of her name to see Timothy running towards her with a worried expression on his face. She stood up and envelopes him in a hug before breaking into sobs. “Hey, hey, it's

‘Morning news reporting the Evans industries are being sued by the government for several allegations against them. The company is accused of several cases of embezzlement done with the aid of several senators who had been helped into positions of power by the Evans family.’ ‘The Evans are also accused of a construction fraud that had ruined the business of over a thousand entrepreneurs while making tens of thousands homeless. Investigation are being conducted against six senators in collaboration with the Evans family… with Senators Mark Ritchie and Vadim Glade already behind bars and awaiting trial alongside the members of the the Evans family and the higher ups of the Evans industries.’ “A nice way to start the morning… don't you think mother?” Declan asked as he muted the television. Elizabeth and he were seated in the living room each with a glass of wine in their hand. “I couldn't agree more.” Elizabeth said with a small smile on her face. “Let's have a toast…” She added

“I am truly sorry Timo. I am sure that you are hurting because of what Declan must have done but my answer is no.” Mandy said with a stern look. Timothy looked at her while fisting his hands in anger. “You don't mean—” “But I do. May Williams may be a pawn but she remains a leverage for my family. You were the person that gave her up to my family for protection and that is the best that I will be giving you but I won't offer you May Williams for you to use in a game that will endanger her.” Mandy said with firm resolve. “You have a couple of days before Declan would be able to produce whatever information about your family that he can and in whatever method he would be able to use. The only thing you can do is protect your family secrets closely and increase your guard.” “You don't understand… Perhaps you never will. But the man that you know as Declan King is the calm man that is now showing a side that we haven't seen before.” Timothy said, shaking his head. “You would be surpris

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
