(Flashback)

I slowly nodded at Darlene who was trying to help Millie up even though she barely did. I let out a sigh and carried her bridal stroke towards the kitchen as she continued to cling to me tighter which was driving me more and more crazy. I placed her carefully on the island and poured a glass of wine for her without taking my eyes off her. What does she have on her that is this addictive to want to touch her so crazily that it eats me up to stay this far from her?

"Here." I hand her the drink which she took and slowly took an awkward sip.

"I'm happy you're both here, let's play a game," Darlene said breaking the awkward silence between us, she walked up to me holding my palm along with Millie's, I got a hint of what she was trying to do and roll my eyes looking away shyly.

"Let's play hide and seek, I hide and you two find me." She giggled running out of the kitchen.

"You just woke up darling." Millie smiled at her giving me more reasons to drive her crazy.

    Everyone was stunned by what Michael had just done, he had dared to attack someone from the guild like it was nothing.“What do you think you’re doing Michael?” Bianca snarled at him with a horrified gaze. “What makes you think you have the Berber to hurt mr Tate’s son?” Stacking Victo was the same thing as attacking the father himself and even challenging the guild.“If you’re willing to die then you can do that on your own without dragging us into this okay?” Finn glared at him angrily, he didn't care if Michael got into trouble but was more worried about getting dragged into the whole thing.“Michael I don’t think this is right.” A line curved on Ciara’s lips as she stared at Michael in concern, although her family was powerful compared to the guild they could easily be wiped out before they lifted a finger.“He deserves every blow that I give to him no doubt and I would do it over and over again without hesitation.” Michael shrugged nonchalantly as he glared at Victor.“You don’t

    Trying to get half of the company shares for a misealy amount of eighty million dollars was very much outrageous on its own, when Michael had interrupted they had both seen it as a good opportunity to let the Cauldron guild take him away.Although they hadn’t expected Karina to come in on such short notice and take his side without any sort of hesitation, he had not only refused to give out the shares to them but even dared to attack a member of the Cauldron group.“You had better teach him a lesson right now if I would make you regret it!” Victor carried himself from the ground hissing in pain as he gazed at Karina with a sullen look.“That will not happen, Mr Tate,” Karina tells him softly still maintaining a calm composure but that only infuriates Victor even more.“You’re willing to turn in the cauldron groups just because of this lunatic here? Would your family be able to bear the impact of this?” Victor threatened.“As much as your guild is quite powerful and respected same goes

    Everyone was whispering to each other stunned that Karina had been able to bring back the king of kicks, someone that hadn’t thought of meeting throughout their lifetime so this was somewhat like an a honor to them.“You were able to invite him?” Bianca was stunned as she stared at her daughter in awe, the man was known to be very arrogant and would take a lot to get to him which meant it must have taken a lot for Karina to actually convince him to come to Nayvork.“Well I had to be ready for whatever they were planning since there were lot of eyes snooping around the Mixalite.” She shrugged explaining to her mother. She had always watched every move of the Cauldron guild till now and they were finally making their move.“This is also a good chance to actually let out the snake from it’s hole.” A smirk curved on her lips.“Ok then, we would need additional persons to actually aid in the fight.” Finn suggested knowing quite well that the the old man couldn’t fight multiple people at on

    Opening his mouth he coughed a handful of blood to the floor, if Salmone had used his full strength just maybe he won’t be seeing the light of day anytime soon.He was known as one of the top ten immortal fighters, if he was just using half of his powers then how strong would the others be?“Enough of this.” Karina immediately interrupted, she couldn’t possibly bear it if they lost because the men decided to fight each other.“Your strength is quite admirable Mr Salmone.” Finn complimented him as flattery since he was planning to get on his good side seeing that he could be of help to him in the future.Karina rolled her eyes at her cousin and snorted knowing just what he was planning.“You’re indeed living up to your name Mr Salmone.” Mr Chadwick bowed his head slightly in respect to admit his defeat. “You indeed have immense power.”“Of course I do.” He shrugged raising his mose high up in arrogance as he viewed Chadwick as very inferior to him. “I believe now you have learned your

    Michael remained silent as he continued to ignore the down responses of the audience wondering how they were acting as though they were somewhat insane or some sort.“Are they insane to keep blurting out total nonsense?” Michael questioned no one in particular, Ciara on the other hand was fed up and could no longer keep silent while these people were hating on Michael.“Keep quiet right now.” She snapped at them.“How can a pretty lady like you take his side.” Someone teased her but she couldn’t care, immediately Grand landed his gaze on her a smile curved on his lips as he stared at her body even more, he was drenched in lust at the moment and was willing to do anything to get her.“Why him when you can be by my side?” He furrowed his brows at her but Ciara snorted at him in disregard.“You need to get a man who can make you feel safe and not that pump beside you,” they tell her.“Grand is one of a kind and would treat you with so much love and respect so I urge that you choose him“

    Grand slowly rose from the floor holding his head that was pounding as he looked around him wondering why he was on the floor.“What happened?” He questioned in confusion as he gazed at Talia who was beside him trying to help him up, the last thing he recalled was trying to attack Michael when a powerful force pushed him causing him to black out.“You were knocked out you know.” Talia rolled her eyes in disappointment knowing that Grand was t powerful enough to protect her seeing that Michael had caused him to be defeated with just one punch.“By who? Who would dare do that?” Grand questioned feeling his sense of dignity being trampled upon.“Him.” Talia pointed at Michael making Grand even more aggravated, how could a frail Michael beat his ass?“Huh?” Grand scratched his hair. “I must have missed my step causing my strength to counteract me so there’s no way a wimp like him can defeat me.” He shrugged.“That’s right.” Some of the audience began to nod at his words in agreement.“The

    “Of course he does, I did learn a few things from him,” Geand said proudly with a smile on his face.“No wonder you’re very skilled in fighting, it’s quite hard to get Mr Salmone to teach you so I envy you.” Someone beside him said.“You show that you’re indeed a prodigy of that man.” Another said causing Grandpa to feel his head swell in pride at their words. They spotted Mr Vander walking among the groups and were even stunned to meet him.“It would be an honor to greet him.” Grand thought to himself as he made his way towards him with a smile attached to his face as he stared at the man also walking towards him, people couldn’t help but watch as legends were about to meet, they stared in anticipation and excitement and even Grand himself was overly excited as he stretched out his had to Vander when he got closer but was immediately snubbed as the older man made his way to Michael immediately ignoring Grand who was stunned as he was dumbstruck and froze in his spot, people gasped in

    How could he defeat him so easily?” Finn was dumbstruck as he watched Vander struggle on the floor with blood flowing from his mouth, he hadn’t expected him to be taken down in such a way since he was quite strong, he had never thought that the impact of the bulky man’s blow could cause this much damage, if it were to be a normal person then that means the person would have died without a second chance at life.“Who the hell is that man that even Mr Vander can’t defeat?” Someone questioned from the crowd.Karina’m the other hand had a displeased look on her face seeing the outcome, she had carefully chosen Vander because he was quite strong at pointing out weak points to guarantee defeat but with what she saw right now she was very much displeased knew they had to up their game even more. Defeating this opponent would be no child’s play.“I heard that he’s Mr. Tate’s second trainee, he’s called Aristus Black.” “He has really good abilities, one that is very good in both attack and d

Think again, you sicko because I can also do the same.. Do you know that your woman Karina is pregnant with your child? I bet you didn't because why would you leave her to wander around when you know I am out there looking to devour you”Michael could not believe what he saw, until Rasheel sent him a picture with Karina tied to a chair and a lid over her mouth, tears rolling down her eyes.His phone rang, Henry her father was calling.“Father” he answered“It's Karina, she is missing… she said she wanted to take a walk in the garden but we haven't seen her, please, please find her” he muffled.“Father is Mother there?” he asked calmly with his fist clenched, holding back his urge to go over and kill Rasheel and his brother.“

How could you do this to me? After everything that I have done for you! After putting so much effort and energy into doing everything you asked!” Edgar lashed“Father, we are highly disappointed in you, you could have Edgar or me take over your position, why did you give it to that bastard!” Kylen, the second son lashed at his father.“We’ve done so much but you chose the son that caused you so much downfall and forgot about us that stood by your side all these years! How could you!” Edgar lashed again.Montreal ignored them, knowing that he would only say hurtful things to them.“What is going on here?

    Rasheel got up, ready for the day’s activities, he went to his room, got dressed, and set for the day.“There must be a great occasion today” Lucy muffled as she watched him dressed after a brutal night together. It wasn't like she could ever resist him, He was stronger and always determined each time, having her roughly and making sure there were bruises all over the following morning. Lucy was tired of crying and begging him because each time she begged him, she realized she was just adding gasoline to his fire, making him burn rapidly, pounding her like it was his last time on earth.“Yes, I have a very important board meeting today, wish me luck, honey” He winked at her.Lucy cringed at his madness, if anything, she wished he lost the contract and went broke.Rasheel chuckled, like he could read her like an open book “I know you wish for me to fail, but even if I fail, I am never going to let you go, you are too sweet” He smirkedLucy tightened her grip on her blanket, holding tig

You guys can solve whatever problem you find yourself for all I care!” I sneered“But Sir Michael” Collins muffledMichael glared at him “The next time you call me or bother my wife again, I will have your head delivered back to that family, do you understand?” Michael growled“Yes sir” Colin breathed“Do you understand!” Michael snarled, his eyes darkened as though he was on a rampage, sending shivers down Colin’s spine.

    Karina stood by the door, watching Lucy’s mother in tears, standing before Michael. She walked up to them “Michael, is everything okay?” she asked, gazing at Alice. “It's Lucy’s mum, she said she has something important to tell me” Michael responded. Karina turned to Michael to give her a listening ear, Michael didn't like the idea of having Alice in his house, he was clearly against it but he knew Karina wouldn't like it if he turned her down so he nodded in agreement to have her inside his house. They sat in the living room while Karina gestured to her maid to help Alice with a glass of water and a glass of juice so Alice could decide for herself which she wanted. As soon as the glass of water got to her table, Alice drank everything all at once. When the juice came, she gulped down again, making Michael disgusted “I am sure you are not here to wine and dine” he sneered at her and instantly Alice composed herself knowing that Michael had every right to be authoritative si

It better be worth my time” He sneered, boiling with rage. The guard at the other end of the phone was not sure if telling Rasheel at that time was a good idea but either way, Rasheel would find out so he made up his mind.“Sir, the CCTV guard Miles’s parents malfunctioned but now that it's back..” he paused, trembling in fear, not sure if it was a good idea to yell Rasheel.“What is the matter you son of a gun” Rahseel was still very much pissed about Lara yelled, still clenching the gun like his life depended on it.“Miles’ parents are gone and all our men are dead” He finally blurted“What?” he exclaimed “They are all gone, Sir Rasheel,
