The dark room exactly foretold what their mission was. The men in the room were patiently waiting. Their boss had informed them that they were going to wait for a little while before they carried their plans into motion,and they patiently waited but one could tell that their patience was running thin. He said he had gotten another message from his informant, yet the message hadn't even been delivered to them. Just soon after, they heard a series of footsteps approaching the room. Every man straightened himself and waited.

The door opened and their employer walked in, before walking straight to sit at the head of the table. The others watched as he took out a cigar and lit it. He took a puff before one of them questioned him.

"Is this mission still going to hold, boss?" The gruff, deep voice questioned.

He cleared his throat before he continued, nobody could read the expression on his face.

"Of course. I was about to tell you about our new development. I'm happy you guys are alread

    Chloe's reflexes at this point were very fast. She did what the men couldn't have expected at that moment, especially with how freaked out she was when she saw them. In a trice, she jumped back into the room and slammed the door shut. Thankfully, the door had an automatic lock so the men couldn't open it even as they budged at the door, hoping it would open. Crashing on the floor, her breathing got so intense that Cage who had been startled by the sudden bang felt true fear for a very long time. "What the fuck was that?" He questioned, looking so distraught and immensely shaken. Chloe was still on the floor, trembling like a leaf in the gale while still staring at the door. He followed her line of sight and looked at the door, which made him conclude that she might have seen something dangerous. His brows immediately came together as a chill found its way down his spine. "Talk to me." He whispered, but Chloe was still adamant and so scared. She was still trembling. Unable to wait

    The bandits wasted no more time before they started to creep in slowly. They moved like shadows as they started to surround the house, just to make sure that Cage or Chloe found a way out. Only two of them were stationed at the door now, and they were trying their best to get the door down and enter before the police or any security agency was alerted. The fact fact they had cut off the network service was a very good sign that they were getting somewhere. They moved around with purpose and their leader, who was getting fed up, spoke into the walkie-talkie he had been carrying. He was somewhere on the other side of the building, patiently waiting for his men to bring him good news but he hadn't got any and it was getting on his nerves. Cage and Chloe were still struck where they were standing, as they listened to know if the bandits were still outside. They hadn't heard a thing for some time and were starting to suspect that help had come and the men had been chased out, but Cage s

    The room fell silent immediately as a pang of fear gripped the both of them. Cage tried to think of something quick to do so he could avert the danger that was staring at him right now but it seemed as if there was nothing he could do. Nothing came to his mind at this point, he couldn't even catch a brainwave at all. He had no idea if it was because he was worried about what the man might do to them now that he had entered the room on his own. The dark, cruel eyes gazed at them as the abductor's voice rose a second time. He sounded so menacing as he ordered them to get on the floor yet again. "Get down on the fucking ground, both of you! And don't even think about trying anything funny, or I'll blow your brains out. And I will not repeat myself again. You both will be dead when I say it again!" He yelled and continued to point the gun at them. Cage glanced back at Chloe and whispered to her, asking her not to do anything rash or hysterical, while also telling her that everything wil

    Cage breathed a sigh of relief after the news came to him that everyone was alright and nobody had been hurt. He turned to Chloe who still had traces of tears in her eyes. He didn't try to console her because he knew how terrible she must have felt, having seen what just happened. It would be too much for anyone to bear, especially someone who was witnessing that kind of violence for the first time. He led her to a corner. "We need to get out of here, Chloe. Didn't think the bad feeling you had would be this. It's not safe for us to stay any longer, especially now that we know that there is someone who has been following our movements for a time now, someone who has been waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike." He shook his head, knowing that they were very lucky because if the man had shot them before his bodyguards arrived, they would have been long gone before any sort of intervention came to them. She nodded, while looking at their sides. The bodyguards were still around

    The next came with a foreboding, a very bad one. Chleo had been all shifty and uncomfortable the whole day, and once again she complained to Cage about how she felt bad yet again but he assured her that everything was OK and all she was going through was just what she had faced from the attack at her father's place. It had only been two days since it had happened, so it wasn't surprising. They didn't leave the house and tried to rest as much as possible and also do some exercises to get their mind off what had happened. Their business was being handled by their closest associates while they recovered from the traumatic experience. However, Cage was jarred out from his sleep when he heard a blood-curdling scream come from Chloe's room. Without any form of hesitating, Cage bolted out of the bed and raced towards the hallway. His heart was beating fast as he wondered what had happened. Has anyone attacked her? Had those bastards sneaked into their house and somehow attacked. Her. Thos

    The atmosphere atmosphere the room got increasingly tense as Chloe stared at the chilling message that was displayed on her phone screen. They had replied. Her hands trembled uncontrollably as she read the words again, the threat looming over like a dark cloud. She wondered if Micheal was playing a prank on them but she knew for certain that this wasn't any kind of joke. This was real, and they had to find a way to deal with it. The message read. "Surrender yourself in the next three hours, or Micheal will pay the price." "No!" She cried out, not knowing what to do. She was utterly confused and even Cage was shocked. Her heart was pounding in her chest as she struggled to process what was really going on and how bad this was going to be. She knew what was going to happen if they didn't comply with the demands of these people. Nobody needed to tell her twice. Cage quickly took the phone away from her and began to dial a number. "What are you going to do?" She asked him, staring at

  • RETURN OF THE TRILLIONAIRE: CAGE   A RAY OF HOPE

    Cage didn't waste any time before he did what needed to be done. He quickly carried her and got her into the car and rushed to the hospital. He was scared the whole ride because he couldn't bear to see her in such a vulnerable state. He blamed the enemy who had been causing havoc ever since. Chloe had been so restive ever since, and because everything they did got to her, she couldn't concentrate or rest without thinking about the threats they both faced, and now it was Micheal. They had killed Micheal and sent her his butchered body. Remembering the picture brought up a feeling of nausea but he quickly pushed it down and concentrated on getting Chloe to the hospital first. That could come later. He prayed that nothing bad had happened to her and that she would be fine after getting her to the hospital. He didn't stop until he arrived at the large hospital which was a kilometre away from where he lived. As soon as he arrived, the paramedics were alerted and they quickly got into ac

  • RETURN OF THE TRILLIONAIRE: CAGE   ...SHINE IN THE LIGHT

    Mason was sitting in his dark study, all alone. A smile cracked up his lips the moment he took up his cigarette and lit it. Things had been going really well for some time, and with the way things were going, if they continued to keep up their performance and always stay one step ahead, there would be nobody to challenge them. And there wasn't anything else he would have wanted. He was very insistent on making this work and couldn't just wait to get what he wanted. Even though he wanted it fast, he knew he had to wait a bit. Things like this took a lot of time because of the magnitude of the project. It cost a lot of time and money but the rewards and the fruits to reap was going to be great. A chuckle escaped his lips as he thought about how the project had gone. Being smart enough, he didn't allow himself to be deterred by his failure and quickly launched another attack that brought about this moment, this happy moment. He knew he was smart, and he praised himself for that. All

    PLAYING FOR KEEPS

    Trevor couldn't believe that this was happening. He'd gotten off the call with hopes that Cage wouldn't do anything, but when he had gotten off the phone with Cage, he couldn't believe it. It was still very hard to assimilate the words he had heard. They were devastating, utterly devastating. The threat and the calmness in his voice, he was still finding it very hard to believe a single word of it. "It's a fucking bluff," he said under his breath as he kept pacing the entire room. There was a lot more to this. "There is no way he's going to be able to freeze my accounts. That's not going to happen without a court order." So far he had been able to stay under the radar because of the palms he had to grease. It had saved him a lot and hearing what was about to happen meant a lot of things. It meant there was no way he could report to the authorities because they would find out what he had been doing and there wouldn't be a way to cover up the skeleton he'd been hiding in his cupboard

    NOTHING CAN STOP ME!

    Cage stood outside his house, pacing back and forth like a caged beast. He had been very worried, ever since he got the call from the agents some minutes before now. He trusted their abilities, but hearing that Chloe had been rescued was everything he could ask for. He couldn't wait to see her come back to him again. As soon as this was done, the Gedan Family would be shooting themselves in the foot. They had made a very big mistake the moment they decided to take her away from him so they could manipulate him into giving her up. He was going to make sure they suffered and got what they deserved. There was no mercy here. The silence was heavy where he stood and it was only broken by the occasional rustle of leaves in the breeze. He couldn't shake the images of Chloe's terrified face haunting his mind. He continued to stand there, patiently waiting. It wasn't long before he heard the sound of an approaching car. It pulled him from his thoughts as he walked to the direction. A black S

    YOU'RE WELCOME

    The night was dark and silent and the moon cast an eerie glow over the old warehouse. It was the perfect time to attack and that was why they had chosen this time to do it. The two couldn't wait to finish what was started not long before now. Chloe sat on a cold, hard chair. Her hands were tied and her heart was pounding furiously in her chest. She hadn't hadn't gotten a blink of sleep since she was apprehended because of how scared she was. She had never been more scared than she was at the moment. Be thoughts were filled with worry for her un or child and for Cage. She knew he would come for her, but she had no idea how or when. She only wanted to hope and kept looking out that he would come for her one day. She knew he would but normally he should have already come for her, but he hadn't yet. And that worried her so much. That was the moment the sound of gunfire suddenly erupted outside the warehouse. Her heart skipped a beat as her fear intensified immediately. She didn't know w

    BEFORE THE DAY ENDS

    That night was the longest night in his life. While the rest had gone to sleep, he stayed awake, restless and shaken. Even with the thought that she was not hurt at the moment, he couldn't risk the dread that had already engulfed him. Nothing made sense to him him anymore. He just wanted to see her safe and he knew he was going to pull off something extra to get this done. He was back home and no longer at his office now, but the Gedan family was still out here, and they had to be stopped. That was if the abductors weren't just trying to implicate them as the real suspects when they weren't. Cage was so angry and wondered how they had been unable to see that something like this could happen. Well, he didn't blame himself. There were no leads, no suspicious events that had led up to the kidnapping. It just happened out of nowhere, sending him crashing back into the world of hurt and pain and worries that he thought he would gone past now. He had to stop them and that was what he was a

    FOOLPROOF

    "What happened?" He asked, the concern in his voice was as silent as a summer afternoon. Cage took a deep breath and answered. "Chloe has been kidnapped. And they want me to sign all my properties over to the Gedans Family in exchange for her release. I never saw anything of this sort coming but it looks like they have been planning it all along for a long time. I won't be surprised if I find out that they are connected to the problems we have been facing lately, especially with Marcia. They could be the ones who told her to do what she did and now that their plans won't work, they opted immediately to abduct my wife. Those bastards, once I have my hands on them I'm going to make sure they regret whatever they are doing right now." Cage said, growling and punching the table with his clenched fist. A day ago he was happy that he had been able to curtail the situation but right now, everything had just gotten worse and probably gone back to square one. There was a big silence, after

    A VERY BIG ONE

    Cage sprinted back to his car as soon as he began to understand what was going on. He drove back home as fast as he could with his thoughts racing madly. He didn't know what to believe or think about. The fact that she had left an hour ago made him so worried and no matter how he tried to push the dangerous possibilities off and tell himself that she was OK, he couldn't. He knew that something was very wrong when he arrived home and rushed inside, calling out her name with a very panic-filled voice. "Chloe! Chloe!, are you here?" The house was eerily silent and he went to check the cameras after that. He found out that nobody had been there the whole time he was away. He had a very bad feeling in his gut at this point as he wondered what could have happened to her and where she might be at this point. Just for good measure, he checked every room, every corner, but there was no sign of her. The panic set in as he realised she was truly missing. He decided to wait, hoping she would wa

    A CHILL OF DREAD

    Cage felt so relieved and carefree as he drove down the familiar route to Chloe's family home. He was very happy because the problem had been solved at least and he just had to find out the main person behind the fake rumours. That wasn't a pain in the ass since whoever it was would be kept at bay as soon as he knew that he was wanted and a lot of people were looking for him. He had made a mental note earlier to call Dave to know if he'd found anything about the voice of the man who had spoken with Marcia over the phone. He was snapped out of his thoughts when someone honked at me from behind. He matched the accelerator and the car began to race down the tarmac. The later afternoon sun had already cast shadows on the earth but he barely noticed. He couldn't wait to get to the house and finally meet her. He was worried about what their conversation was going to sound like. He wondered if it would be awkward or emotional, considering what had happened between them before now. He remin

    TRACK A VOICE

    Cage didn't still safe despite the measures that had already been taken to bring down the allegations. He knew that something was still out there, searching and waiting for him to slip so they could strike. And he knew that he had to make sure that he didn't. The next day, he decided to call his lawyer again. He had decided that there was no need to rest anymore until he had gotten the whole problem sorted out. He felt uneasy when he picked up the phone and called his lawyer, Mark. The feeling was there with him, and it refused to leave him no matter how much he tried to. "Mark, I need to talk to you." He said, sounding tense even though he was trying everything possible not to sound that way. Yes, they had taken care of Marcia and her lies but that wasn't just working for him. It wasn't enough motivation because what faced them was bigger than Marcia, and even more deadly. He still remembered the attack of the assassins who had been sent to end his life. The thought made his gut

    BREAKING NEWS!!

    Two days later, Cage was in his house, particularly sitting at his desk in his study. The last few days had been a whirlwind of confusion and anxiety. The cops were still outside the estate where he was leaving, so he hadn't been able to leave the house since then, until he had been proven to be innocent. It was a very tiresome time for him and he couldn't wait to be done with it. That was the moment that his phone suddenly rang. He thought it was from his assistant or Mark but when he peered into the phone it was a strange number. It was strange because he didn't know who it was and because the caller ID was only composed of very short numbers that nobody in the state used. It almost looked foreign, and he prayed that it was the government house so he could be done with this. But on a second thought, he wondered what it would be if it wasn't really the government house but instead the perpetrator. His heart pounded as he picked up the phone. "Hello, this is Cage. " He said, doing e
