"Let's just say that she's a very dear friend of mine." Dominic lied, he wasn't willing to reveal everything to her and thus wasn't because he didn't trust her but for the fact that he wanted to build the relationship on a normal level, allow it to gain momentum before finally coming out to her.

Selena cocked her head, a pang of jealousy rushed through her. She didn't expect him to have a friend, a dear one at that. " Should I be worried?" She inquired and Dominic's brows furrowed in momentary confusion before his eyes widened at the realization.

"Oh? About Eleanor?" He asked in surprise and Selena nodded. He chuckled briefly, " No, you don't." He replied.

" Why do I have a feeling that you are lying to me?" Selena asked and he stared at her as though she was saying gibberish. Dominic sighed, he didn't want her to begin to ask more questions.

"Firstly, I don't think she's your friend, you wouldn't speak to her in that manner." She said.

Dominic went silent, she was astute of her goo

    They grimaced as they turned towards her, "Mom, I was just having a conversation with Camara." Rose said but she didn't say anything else.Grandma stared at her with anger in her eyes, "My guests are getting well." She said, Her party was always the talk of the town and she wouldn't like this year to be different. There was a reason she was called the Queen of parties. " Mom, it was just for a minute, I'm sure they won't die of starvation." Rose replied tiredly, not happy that she was facing this kind of lashing from her mother in front of her daughter. If she wanted to make a correction which this wasn't by the way, she could call her secretly and talk about it not speak as though she was a kid."Don't take that tone with me young lady." Grandma said and Rose rolled her eyes. Anger welled in her eyes as she stared at her daughter.Camara felt the need to come in between them, this was what happened when a mother and daughter were strong-willed. This was also expressed in her mother'

    Dominic was up before the crow of the birds and he scanned through his phone which had been beeping. It was a message from Eleanor yet again, filled with a little irritation mixed with curiosity as to why she was sending messages so early after he had expressly told her what to do, he dialed her number.He went out of the room and closed the door gently remembering this time to speak in low volumes so that Selena didn't start quizzing him again.Eleanor picked up on the first ring, she was surprised why her boss didn't pick up immediately he heard the beep. Well that was probably the perks of being with a new woman.Not like she was jealous, well probably a tiny weenie jealous but that was not the right." Good morning sir" she said immediately she heard his voice. " Sorry for calling this early, sir." " No, you're not sorry, tell me why you called." Dominic replied curtly.She almost sighed, "Sir, we've been stuck with what to do. I told the Lieutenant about your idea but he says t

    A few hours later, At the Company, " They've arrived!" A man said and the rest of the workers comported themselves. They were on their feet as their bosses walked in. "Good morning, ma'am," " Good morning, sir." They greeted each other as they walked past them. As if they had spoken about it, none of them replied as they continued into the lift. " Let's give them a show." Dominic said and Selena nodded, so he pulled her into his arms and gave her a torrid kiss which sent the workers mouth drop in shock as the lift door closed." Someone tell me to close my mouth, this is unbelievable!" Ryan exclaimed, it was as if he was daydreaming." If anyone had told me that both of them would end up together I would have sworn and said no, alas, what do I know?" Another worker commented." How can she stoop so low to date, talk more of planning to marry that riffraff?" Amelia contributed, green with envy. What a gem that slipped off their hands!Emily looked up from her computer, she was the

    Dominic's mood instantly changed immediately he heard the words. "Why do you say so?" He asked. He didn't want to go to Victoria right now but if worse came to the worst, he would have no choice than to do that." Cindy tells me that there is a group of people scouting at the border, we are on our way to see how true that is." " Okay, then, you can leave. Tell me whatever is going on there. Do you have any information about Anderson?" He spoke slowly as he saw Selena giving him a curious look."No, I haven't. I wanted to inform you first." " Are you in the armor tank?" " Yes, sir." " Alight and go by foot, inform Anderson, if it becomes really serious beep me." He ordered." Yes, sir." Eleanor replied and Dominic ended the call abruptly. She looked around.Dominic stared ahead and didn't know why she preferred to report to him instead of her superior all the time. There was a reason he had someone in place, so that he didn't get bothered all the time. He made a mental note to ta

    "Miss Selena?" Amelia replied in shock, " I didn't see you there." She said, a bit of fear flickering in her eyes as she stared at her boss as she tried to figure out if she was heard. Selena stared at her blankly, " I don't want to see you in the premises after five p.m." She walked away and Amelia ran after her." Miss Selena. You can't just tell me to leave the company." She complained and Selena ignored her completely. Amelia ran towards her and held her hand, " Please don't make me go." She begged.Selena shrugged Amelia's hand away, " Please don't send me away ma." She begged and Selena stopped to stare at her. "Get out of my premises. I'll send you a severance package. Do well to make sure that I don't see you around here. If I do, I will lock you up." She threatened and walked away. A few footsteps stopped at Amelia's side as they rubbed her shoulder, " It'll be alright. Maybe we could appeal to Dominic." Todd suggested as she remained very sober and hurt. Amelia stared a

    At this point, Dominic was alarmed. He couldn't stay here anymore. but he thought, if she had time to type then he could still do a bit of damage control at least to make sure that they didn't completely lose.He replied to her immediately, " I'll call Anderson." He dialed Anderson's number immediately. Pick up..." Good day, sir. I'm on my way to the scene, Eleanor tells me that a lot of people were killed." He replied and Dominic almost rolled his eyes at the statement of course need to be fast about it. He wanted to query him but decided to push it back till after the fight. "Get me their heads, I don't care how many they are. I'll be arriving tomorrow." He said. Anderson sighed in relief, it had been long that he had been trying to get Dominic to return but he seemed so interested in finding love. He guessed this attack was a good one anyway." Yes, sir." Dominic hung up and texted Eleanor back, " make sure you are hidden, reinforcement is coming." He said.Eleanor sighed in re

    Dominic's departure caused a plethora of feelings in her heart but she didn't want to show it. Never had she missed anyone so badly as she did him and he had not even gone. " Are you sure your socks are in there?" She reminded him. Although he said that he had a lot over there that didn't stop her from making sure that she packed a small bag for him. " Yeah." Dominic chuckled, she reminded him of a mother bear which he would have found offensive but he understood that she was only doing it out of love therefore he didn't feel weird. Selena snuck up on him at least she thought she did and tickled him. Dominic pretended to be startled and he turned. With a smile on his lips he lifted her up and she locked her feet behind his waist. " Hmm, I think I'm going to miss you a bit." He teased.Selena wore a mock offended look, " Oh, really, I might not miss you at all. I could just party away with the men who come my way." Dominic growled and Selena chuckled, although he knew that she wa

    "Make sure you find him and bring him back here alive." Dominic ordered. Anderson almost fell off his chair when he saw Dominic standing behind him With a widening of the eyes, he rose to his feet briskly. " Welcome, general." He saluted him. " Yes,sir." The soldier on the other end of the phone replied swiftly when he heard that' the General had arrived. Dominic signaled to Anderson and he passed him the phone, "Don't get hurt chase him to the mountains, capture him and make sure he gets here in an hour. I repeat: do not get injured." He ordered. These soldiers went into battles blindly, hence they got wounded most of the time and for someone like him who didn't have the time to pity people when they could have just done the right thing, he wouldn't take it lightly with him. " Do you have back up with you?" He asked. " Yes, sir." He replied. " Then go after him." He replied. That was all they needed to announce his return, there were a few shouts as he ended the call and he g

    "Of course, you heard what I said," There was venom and so much hatred in Diana's voice that the crowd shivered with it. Everyone fell silent, the people laid on the floor, trembling with their arms over their head as they prayed for safety. Diana came with a small army of men dressed in black suits and they barricaded the church. Apart from the conspicuous plastic surgery done on the left side of her face,she seemed to have grown bigger. Dominic didn't know how to feel, Selena might have imagined it as the last day of her life, she clenched tighter to him, wishing it would pass away like a dream. "Silly you are Marcus," she said with a snicker, "thinking you can defeat me this easily. I have spent a lifetime planning, waiting for this very moment" Her voice cut through the walls of the silent church, Dominic was still thinking of a response to give when she suddenly twisted Marcus arm and swept him off his feet. "Oh no!," Dominic gasped with horror as his fourth in command hit th

    It was finally the day of the wedding. Petals adorned the floor, surrounding the chair and giving off this crazy rich Asians vibe. It was almost feathery that one would think that they were going to lay on them. The church had been decorated by the best event planner in town. No one could even dispute the fact that their wedding was the most elegant in town and how much they had spent. It was the talk of the whole town. People had come from far and near to witness the joining. It was almost as if they had been told that if they missed this wedding, they had missed a lot of things By six a.m. the church was already packed. People who couldn't attend the church service were already seated in the hall waiting for the bride and groom to finally arrive.The priest cleared his throat after everyone had found a place to sit. The pressmen and the camera men were already at alert to cover the biggest wedding in the last decade. A wedding was held last week but it wasn't as magnificent as thi

    Selena opened her eyes first and saw Dominic standing at the window looking outside the hospital. The sunrays hit her eyes and she squinted, she didn't know the time that she made the sound. It was very soft but he heard it anyway. She was tired and stressed but couldn't find an expression for her emotions.As if touched by a life wire, Dominic quickly turned and saw that she was awake. A small smile appeared on his face as he stared at her, she was beautiful even in her sick state. He marched to the edge of the bed and gathered her softly into his arms, her body was exactly the way he remembered. Soft, just that she had become very lean."Stop staring, I'm no longer fine again. I can't face you." She croaked and began to cough violently. Dominic quickly pressed the bell that was close to him and at the end of the day, he saw that she was feeling very tired. He planted kisses on her face. As a General, there were a few things that made him emotional but she was one of them. He didn

    Make sure you shoot him now, you must not allow him to escape." He told the people who were standing and looking. Pauo smiled thinking that Todd was referring to Dominic. "Yes, blow his brains out."The soldiers turned in his direction and cocked their guns, making him surprised. His eyes darted towards Todd. "what is happening?" He inquired but was met with silence. He flared up. " Put those guns down!""You don't control us anymore!" One of the soldiers yelled and he was shocked to the bone. "What the hell is this?!" "Exactly what we should have done the very first time! We shout "have killed you the moment you took Selena." Another soldier responded.Paul was stunned and moved back a little. Everything was crumbling before his very eyes. "You can't be serious right now! Are you kidding me right now? You would save this man over me? The man who taught you everything you know? The man who had made you into who you're? That's ridiculous!" The soldiers drew out another gun and flas

    Selena woke up in a strange bed and saw a man tapping a syringe slowly before clipping the needle to it. Her eyes widened in horror but she wasn't able to move. It seemed like her legs were stuck and all that she could do was to just protest in her head."Where am I God?" She wondered internally. Her tongue was almost clipped to the roof and all she could pray for was to be free. She didn't know what to do. She was feeling tied down and helpless. "Don't move darling, you're about to join the people above, greet your beloved father." The man in scrubs said and she became afraid. The heart monitor beeped loudly and the doctor stared at it before glancing at her in horror."You are not supposed to be alive darling because you'll only endanger yourself. Why don't you use the same energy to make sure that you sing well when you get to heaven or hell? I can't wait to see you dancing with the people on high. I hear it's fun though, what do you think?" She was scared. She was frozen at the

    Dominic was trapped between the devil and the deep blue sea and he hoped that he didn't hit his head. He smiled and sought a solution. It was as if this was a distraction and he was ready to make sure that he wasn't being played. "Are you sure that you're here for me?" He inquired. He didn't want a situation whereby he'd have to undergo a fight that would stop him from seeing through their escapades."I don't think that you're ready for what's about to hit you though. Now that you're trapped, what do you have to say?" Paul replied.Dominic considered his next movement, these men were heavily guarded, doing anything unseemly was surely going to backfire and with the way things were going, he was trying his very best to make sure that he didn't fall into their trap."Since you already have me in your custody, what else can I say other than surrender? What do you really want?" Paul wasn't satisfied with that reaction, he wanted to see Dominic get vexed and expend his energy on nothing

    Dominic rose faster than lightning because he panicked, not knowing what to do when he saw the building on fire. There was no way that she could remain in that building, he was damn sure of that but that still didn't give him all the assurance that he needed because he was feeling very scared. This was very tricky and he only hoped that he hadn't made a mistake in his calculations.The other boss watched the General almost sink to his knees in despair because, for the very first time, he had been outsmarted, it wasn't a very palatable sight to behold but there was nothing that could be done about that. It was either that or he continued feeling invincible.Dominic gazed around in despair, his brain trying to process all that happened but nothing was even coming up, making him look a fool. Who had taken Selena's body?He heard a cough and he stiffened."Oh, how the mighty has fallen! I see that it's not an easy sight for you to stomach that your plans had become botched but I guess it

    Upon touching down in Venice, he refused to be tired of the way people often loved to behave when they arrived at s strange place. It was almost as if everyone could spot that the person was new to town and that usually brought about not having access to the right information or being cheated. He knew that they were somewhere here but that didn't matter if he didn't find them. That was most important to him."Hi, what are you looking for?" A trader called after him and he looked up to see other traders staring at him and he switched to their language causing them to be astonished by the way that he was speaking as if he was a local "That way, I didn't know that you speak." The man replied with pure English but he still wanted to buy their trust because he knew that it wasn't going to turn out well if he just headed toward the city without having a form of belonging here. With the way things were going, he might need to stay for a while at least to get to know the inner workings of t

    Marcel tried to peep through his brother's phone when he saw his countenance suddenly grow cold. He didn't need anyone to tell him that there was a problem. "They've been taken right? Or are they dead?" Marcel panicked, causing him to roll his eyes at the attitude. There were other ways to act but his brother was taking the cake. A full grown man who was acting as if he didn't know that they were involved in a combat and that it didn't ease up just like that. "You don't need to worry about anything because I'll make sure that you don't suffer from anything. Just do what I ask that you should. So, will you be able to handle this information or I need to find another partner." "I don't think I can bear to live apart from the woman that I love so much."Dominic rolled his eyes at the whimpering attitude that his brother was portraying, other people would even barf at the ridiculousness because it truly was and he was ashamed of it. He would rather that there was something else that he
