"What is the next thing to be done?" Ariel asked as they stood in front of the lifeless just of Tom that was sprawled out on the floor before them."We'll have to dispose his corpse and that of his men and then we can each go to our various businesses," Stella said with a note of finality as she cleaned her gun with a napkin that was on the table."I'll have them dropped off at a spot. You can leave that to me," Zen muttered and began to drag Tom's corpse out of the house..He stopped behind one of the cars, opened the boot and threw him in. He did the same for the others as well and then clapped his hands together."Would you mind if I join you? I don't have anything to do once you both leave and I'll be bored as hell," he heard from behind, startling him a bit as he wasn't expecting anyone. He turned his head and right behind him stood Ariel."I didn't get what you said now, can you come again?" He said even though he had heard all she said. She repeated her words and stood in fron
Stefan stared at the young man who had come to his office and was extremely pissed. He didn't know what to do to him and neither did he plan on doing anything. "What news is that?" He asked, his hands clasped together. He seemed to know what he was going to talk about already but pretended like he didn't."Tom is dead and is corpse was found along the road this morning sir."Stefan pretended to be shocked, his eyes almost bulging from its socket. He adjusted himself on the swiveling chair and spoke, "What do you mean Tom is dead? Are you kidding me right now?" He asked."Not at all sir. It's all over the news of a young man whose corpses was found along the highway this morning.""Damn! This is crazy and whoever did this has to pay! I'm going to make sure they suffer a great deal!" He said in a firm voice that showed just how much he cared. The young man stayed a little while before leaving.The moment Stefan heard the sound of the door shutting and was sure he wasn't there anymore,
When she was done narrating to the commissioner of police force, he took a deep breath that told her that it might be extra difficult for her to get her wish done. There was silence for a few seconds and then he cleared his throat."I do understand how you feel ma'am and I'm going to Increase your security team if that's what you think is best to do," he muttered and immediately, her face brightened up. The excitement that ran through her knee no bounds. "Oh my! Thank you very much, Mr commissioner. You are such a wonderful and nice person. Thank you,," she said in appreciation and ended the call before he got a chance to say a word. Satisfied, she adjusted herself on her chair and went on with her work, whistling as she got engrossed.Stella stretched her hand in the air and felt a bit exhausted. Her back ached from sitting all morning but she still felt lazy to rise to her feet. she took a walk around her office and only then did she realize that she had the job of tailing Stefan
Zen Maximus stood outside the magnificent house in a very upscale neighbourhood. The area was surrounded by extravagant mansions and luxury cars. No doubt that it was a luxurious neighbourhood.There was a look of hesitation on his chiselled features. His tall athletic build slumped a little, like he was contemplating what to do next. His wife, Stella Richard, on the other hand, smiled and jumped up and down in excitement, “Let’s go inside!" Holding his hand she pushed him forward. She had a slender yet athletic frame. Her long lustrous hair cascaded down in gentle waves framing a face adorned with delicate features. "Hurry up!" She nudged him again. “I don’t know… your family hates me.” Zen replied knowing very well that he would have to face humiliation and insult if he were to go inside. “Don't worry everything will be alright!” Stella sighed, patting him on his shoulder as she rang the doorbell. The door opened and a young woman in her twenties came into view. Sarah Richard
“I am sorry. I know I am being unreasonable but now we have nowhere to go. The rent had not been paid for 5 months and the landlord wants to throw us out.” Zen had a pitiful look on his face as he said. Stella’s eyes widened when she heard that, “But you didn’t tell me about this.” “I know… I didn’t want you to get worried.” Ruby’s face turned red as she gave Zen a death glare, “And what made you think that I will let you stay here in my house? You are already a worthless piece of trash which can give my daughter nothing and now you just want to rob us like this? Not going to happen!” Sarah rolled her eyes seeing the situation in front of her while Benjamin was enjoying every minute of this, he mocked him, “Wow! What a gift you gave her.” He turned towards Ruby and continued saying, “Mother in law you should be happy, he is giving you himself in your birthday gift. Why don’t you just keep him as your servant? I am sure he would be more than happy to lick your boots for you.” “Sh
Zen walked aimlessly for a long time. He had no idea where he was going or where he would end up. All he knew was that he needed to escape the terrible situation he was in, yet he wasn’t seeing any way out. Even his own wife Stella had turned against him, asking for a divorce. He laughed sarcastically, rubbing his hand to his face and wondering what to do next. He wished he had an option, he wished she would have trusted him more. He wished for a lot of things that he knew he wouldn't get.His phone suddenly rang, jarring him out of his thoughts. As he brought it out from his pocket, he grimaced at the look of his phone. He had been planning to change it for a while now, but since he couldn’t even afford to feed himself, how would he get a new phone?“Zen!” A man’s voice filled his ears as soon as he picked the call, “Where the hell have you been? Don’t you know you’re supposed to work today?!”He looked around in panic, seeing that he was a long way from home. He remembered retu
Stella looked shocked to see him. She gripped the biceps of the muscular man and tried to pull him inside, but he didn’t even budge. So many emotions flitted through her face, which he could see. At first she was surprised that he was then, then she was worried but not for him, then she kept glancing at the muscular man as though expecting him to react in a negative way. Not once did Zen see an emotion of guilt flit through her features. It was as though he was non-existent, like his presence did not matter in that time and space.Zen was numb. The first thought that came to his mind was her audacity to come to the door naked. It could have been anyone at that door, but she came there naked! And worse, there was a man with her. A man that had been seeing her for god knows how long. A man, in his own home.“Who is this?” the man growled, apparently fed up with the staring and standing contest.“This is my husband,” Stella said, not too happy to announce him. “You know, the simp of a
[No matter how much you try to run from your troubles, they always seem to catch up with you.]In an unknown place, a man was lying on an altar.His limbs splayed out as if he were a sacrificial lamb waiting for the slaughter.However, before anything would happen, he opened his eyes.As he opened his eyes, he felt warmth on his face.There was a confused look on his face, but with his hands still supporting him, he raised his torso and sat up.He looked down at himself and noticed that he was wearing a strange white robe."Wait!" he said out loud, surprised. "I am alive?" He remembered throwing himself off a building, so there was no way he could survive.He wondered, tilting his head to look at the sun-like light above his head. "Is this heaven?"But as he scanned the room, a sense of foreboding crept over him.The walls were covered in strange symbols that glowed with an eerie light, casting shadows that seemed to dance on their own accord.The air was thick with a heady scent that
