They made out with each other in the room they had booked for themselves. Melissa wanted to use the toilet, after that she came out to the mirror section of the toilet where she decided to look at herself. It didn't occur to her that someone was at the opposite listening to what she was saying. The other was the male section and it was demarcated but the sound proof system was being repaired, so it was turned off. Her phone rang. It was Julia, her new secretary. Though she was new in her life, she was friends with her. Julia was a good person, only that she had a lot of connections that wouldn't satisfy Melissa if she knew. "I just wanted to call and get to know how you are doing?" "Awww, thanks so much. You know I was, get this in as a secret. It's privileged information." "Oh yeah. Yes, yes." She nodded her head. Her ears were itching to hear what the princess had to say. "It's about the government of the state, the recent government which will be coming in." "What? This fu
Henry couldn't sleep that night. His mind continued ravaging with a lot of thoughts that he was even talking to himself. "They are really serious, what I'm hearing." He told himself not to joke. He sat up from the bed. His heart was beating so hard. With a heavy sigh, he reached out for his phone which was at the edge of the bedside table. He needed to call someone and talk to. "Is this how my plans will be abolished?" "I'll call Clara." Immediately he typed her name and her number popped up, he then placed a call on it. Luckily for him, she was still awake fantasizing about him. Seeing his call, she picked so suddenly. "What's up? You haven't called this time before. Is anything wrong?" She checked the time and it was 2 AM. Henry tried to swallow the lump in his throat. "I don't even know how to say it." Sure he didn't know how to tell this to evade bringing Julia in. He didn't want any of his girls to know about each other and there was no way he would say this without invol
Henry set up his meeting with his personal assistants in his office, thirteenth floor of his company's administrative complex. He sat up in his chair, taking a heavy breath. "What do you think we got to do in this situation?" He asked his colleagues. It was something not too easy. "Well," the first man spoke out. "It has to do with the king and the princess so we gat to be very careful." "Yes, we already know that!" Henry hit the table. He was looking for a solution to the problem on ground and not for anyone to tell him how difficult it was. The first assistant kept quiet. The second man pulled up his hand. "I've gotten an idea." By the look on his face, he got something sensible to say. "Yes, what's that?" Henry raised his hand, signaling him to talk. "I think you should get closer to the princess, and then you should try blackmail Leo……" Jacob was speaking when the door to his office opened. His waitress came in, he pulled up with a frown on his face. "Sorry to interrupt si
"Well man, Julia told me everything. I don't know if you think this is really a secret!" As he was about to respond to this, a catchy news popped up on his phone. "Patrickson Group of Companies set to close down in May….." This got him really shocked, at the middle of his conversation with Clara, he paused. All that happened didn't occur to him. It was as though he was in another world. "What the fuck is going on?" He muttered to himself. Clara, out of anger rose up and hit him on the shoulders. "You think you can escape this by pretending to be speaking with yourself?" A real footage of his company being under robbery popped up as he clicked on the link attached to the headline news. This took him to X, where the video played. The night street was illuminated by a dim green light and his company, manufacturing branch at May Avenue was under severe gun attack. Looking on the floor of the street were the entrance gate securities, who were shut. "Fuck!" In the room, he was heari
"Oh God, I can't really believe this." Leo was imagining how he was gonna go about his new position, it was such a great one that would require dedication and sacrifice from him. A knock was heard on his door. "Who would come knock on my door at this time of the night?" He scoffed, he hated being distracted from serious thoughts like this. Since he came to live in the palace, nothing as such had happened. "This looks quite suspicious!" This he said inside of him. "Well, let me check it out!" He had a door camera which he could turn on and watch what was happening outside of his house. So he turned it on. It was Melissa. He zoomed the camera to show her face. She was quite excited. "Hmm, she will have nothing really important to say," so with this he returned to his bed and sent an automatic message to her through the sound system. "The person you are looking die is sleeping soundly!" Melissa grunted from outside and stormed off. "Shouldn't you be sleeping at this time?" He
Henry upon waking up to hear that the chief of the investigation agency was out of the country and his case will be on hold till she returned decided to run to take it to the king. He had in mind that if the king doesn't do anything, he's going to take the law into his hands. He had two major suspects in mind, Melissa and Leo. "Why is it that for over three decades this company had been in existence, something of this sort never happened until now that bastard is gonna be made the prime minister?" He was so bent on knowing this. This was his main worry. "So he's trying to show his power even before he gets into office, what then will happen when he's in office."He was speaking on zoom with his assistants, this case was bigger than them as it concerned the princess, so they couldn't really say anything. Rather than speaking against the princess, incase it leaked, they entered defensive mood. "What--How are you sure it's the princess who have got a hand in this?" One of his assist
The king stood up and left their midst, which meant that Melissa was in charge. Leo grinned so hard, sinister motives were written all over his face. Even when Melissa was going to take action on this, he was the one controlling her. “Huh!" She moved close to where he was sitting, Henry stood up quite nervous although he was trying to cover it. "It seems like you have forgotten where you are and who you reported to the king, huh?" She brushed her face with widened eyes over Henry who jerked his head back to avoid clashing with Melissa's. "Come on, talk dude!" Leo bullied. "I couldn't expect a low entity like you to come up before the king to report your next queen." "It shows how senseless you are, so all these while you were only acting wise?" Henry balled his fist, gritting his teeth. "I wouldn't spare these two fools a chance to scold the living hell inside of them if I wasn't here!" He said to himself, not knowing it was audible. "Seriously?" Melissa moved towards him. "You
Henry was breathing heavily as he was forcibly made to stand up. He was going to sue the princess and Leo to court for this horrible treatment after he gets well, he thought in his mind. As the soldier released him, so he could stand on his own, he ended up falling to the ground. The beating was too hard for him to bear. He passed out. Melissa signaled on the soldiers. "Tell him to take him to the hospital." Leo realized it was time for his meeting with the king, so he hurried off. He had watched his wish come true. He felt no pity for Henry believing that if he was in the same condition as him, he would have treated him worse. The doctors rushed to the theater when they heard it was the son of Sir Patrickson of the Patrickson Group of Companies that was being tortured this way. They tried to question the soldiers of what happened to him, most already suspected they must have caught him on the road and tortured him. Acting out of pride because they were armed, they refused to a
