"It's not like I don't want to let you in but that's not the best thing for me right now. You know?" He replied, this was like the moment of truth and he didn't want her to feel like he was hiding even a stitch of information away from her.

"So, is that why you were unable to sleep and ended up phoning your friend?" He replied with a raised brow, watching for the tiniest flicker of emotion in her eyes.

A look of surprise crossed her face as she thought back to when she was making that call. She had heard a sound but didn't pay much attention to it and now that mentioned it, she remembered.

"Sly fox. So you heard me. So I was worried yeah and I..." She stopped. "You heard my conversation so what did you think of it?"

"Sane at least, which is like a surprise. One would have thought that you would have gone ballistic."

Selena's mouth fell open. This wasn't what she was expecting him to say. " Oh my goodness, you're incorrigible. How did I even get shackled to such a person? This can

    Dominic felt his phone buzzing loudly in his pockets and he was busy staring at them just to know what was happening at the time of the site and he was waiting to have other things going on for him.He looked up and checked the time. It was almost noon. He jumped out of his seat immediately and stretched his legs for a minute before turning on the ignition. One of the worst things that one could do to himself was to begin the day without getting the bearing of what was going on. This just simply meant that he was taking his time to make sure that everything was going on well with him and was just also trying to see what could be done so that he didn't miss out completely.He ignited the car at once and revved it trying to see if there was any fault in any of the parts. He could tell from the sound. He did it again three times to ensure that he was safe.

    There were many things that made Selena annoyed and murder was one of them. She didn't want to believe that it was true because the man that she was seeing didn't look like someone who could do what he was accused of. It was very annoying that he didn't feel remorseful. Marcel threw his head back and laughed. "That's bullshit. How would you accuse me of killing my mother?" He turned towards Selena who was also staring at him with judgment in her eyes. "You don't believe it right?" He asked her and she stared at him nonchalantly. "Are you kidding me now? Why is everyone acting weird? How in heaven's sake would I kill the mother who birthed me. I mean, who the hell does that? I would never do it no matter what is involved. You can't accuse me and expect that I'd be able." "Is there anything that you can use to justify your claims? You can't just accuse me!" He yelled. "You can either believe that or keep arguing. I'm done with this conversation." Dominic replied and went inside the

    The door creaked open as Marcel stepped out of it in his sleep wear. A lock of his hair fell over his eyes and he pushed it back before making his way towards the kitchen.The house was still awfully silent, a clue that everyone was still asleep. He scrubbed his face with the back of his hands.On entering the kitchen, he hears soft footfalls behind him. He turned around and his eyes met with Dominic's. Their gaze held for a few seconds, before Marcel cleared his throat before looking away. It was obvious Dominic was still angry at him.Dominic brushed past his brother, as he grabbed the kettle pouring a cup of water into it before placing it on the cooker, waiting for it to boil.A muscle ticked in his jaw. Marcel would have been out of his house if it was left to him. But somehow, Selena had managed to convince him to let his brother stay and yeah, just so she could be happy he conceded.After a few minutes of long stretched and awkward silence between both brothers, Marcel cleared

    Camara walked into the consortium. She looked around, it was quite a surprise that Selena works in a company as huge and big as this. She proceeded to the receptionist who in turn directed me to the secretary."Hi, I'm here for the interview" She muttered as she stood in front of the woman who was very much engrossed in her laptop.She glanced up, smiling warmly, before pointing at the elevators to me."The boss would interview you himself, please take the ride to the last floor" She muttered and I nodded walking towards the elevator even as nerves wrecked her insides.Riding to the top floor, she muttered a silent prayer to herself hoping she gets this job. The elevator pinged and she stepped out of it. There was only one office on the floor, the one she guessed belonged to the boss.She knocked and waited for the response that came a minute later. Rubbing her hands together, she stepped in.The man had his back to the door as he looked outside the window. She cleared her throat hopi

    Selena shut her eyes as she took a large sip of her coffee. She stood in the kitchen basking in the scent, Dominic had left for work earlier than usual so it was she and Marcel alone in the house... Not totally alone though.The sounds of footsteps got her snapping her eyes open and staring at the doorway where Marcel stood. He gave her an apologetic shy smile before walking into the kitchen."Good morning" He greeted and she raised a brow, quite surprised."Mornin'" She replied and watched him get a mug and make himself coffee.Silence stretched between them. Selena had no idea what to say to him or what he would want to hear. His relationship with Dominic was at the point of no return, or that's what she thought."I'm leaving today" He stated and her eyes widened as she stared at him." Oh, so soon?" She asked, he only gave her a lazy smile. One that she spotted the hurt underlying."Yeah, I think it's for the best seeing Dominic isn't even ready to savage our relationship" He let o

    Even after assuring the MD of her competence in the Job, Selena felt like an additional bag of pressure had been placed on her. Her conversation with the MD couldn't help but bug her mind no matter how many times she tells herself she is trying her best. She couldn't help but think they are just saying all this but if they hate it. Selena was very deep in thought, when she pushed open the door to her office. Everything was in place just as she had left it except for the man taking her seat behind the desk eating her food. She raised an eyebrow, all her worries momentarily forgotten as she smiled in amusement. He still has not noticed her presence as his focus was on a file on the table, which he was flipping through. His hair was styled backwards with the help of a gel. He was wearing a white long sleeve shirt, not doing much to hide the muscles rippling underneath and it flexed as he flips through the file, and a deep blue tie. His long lashes fanned his cheek anytime he blinked. H

    Dominic decided to hold a party. He had a meeting with his bodyguards on how the party was supposed to be like.“Anyone who passes through that door and is successfully marked by the sensor would be allowed entry into the house. Anything asides that, they must receive a formal permission from me before they are granted entry inside. Am I understood?”“Yes boss.” The bodyguards all chorused in unison.There were just a few hours left until the party time. They started assembling themselves in strategic spots where the censors were located.As soon as the party kicked off, Selena approached the grand hall. She looked ravishingly beautiful in her dress, hair beautifully made and parked into a ponytail.The moderator of the party immediately caught sight of Selena approaching the podium.He went up in high praise of her, unable to get his eyes off her.He faced the crowd. “Can we all stand up while we welcome the latest bride into the hall? This lady here is the reason why we are all gat

    Marcel crept out of the toilet and walked straight to where Selena was standing. He needed to inform her about what was happening. How did they not know that Tyler was working for Silas? That was still a source of wonderment to him.Selena, distracted, turned and shot him a smile before disengaging from her husband's hold at his persistent stare."Hey, what's the problem? You look worried. Aren't you enjoying the party?" She asked him, her voice turning concerned."Nah, that's not the problem at all. I'm just trying to..." He sighed and quickly looked around. His gaze fell on Silas who was chuckling at what Camara said. "May we have this conversation in private please?" He inquired and she smiled at him before taking one last glance at her husband to see if he knew what was happening."Okay... Let's see what your brother thinks about that. I can't just leave him." Selena replied and walked up to Dominic who was also making small talk with one of the men who were present. He was obvious

    "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.

    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
