The next day had Selena running the errands of a house girl cum funeral event planner because Louis was out of her element and all that she was trying to be involved in but it wasn't just easy for her. "I don't know what to say to thank you all for what you did for me. I'm sorry for the stress that I've put you guys through. I would have to sell my house. I can't even stay a minute there without being reminded of my late husband." Selena nodded in understanding. "I get you. I just need you to speak with Marcel. He's quite hurt by your words. I don't think that I've ever seen him in that state. It can be very distracting for all of us. I mean, he's been in love with you for the longest while and hearing you say those words just made him shut off. I think you didn't mean it but you can still make amends at least before it's too late" "Good then, I will talk to him as soon as I can because I'd admit I wasn't supposed to speak to him that way and I'm even ashamed." She replied.Selena
Dominic took the next flight to Victoria and sighed when he touched down on his soil. There was a calming force that made him think about everything that's been happening for a while and saw that he had probably stayed away for too long. Hence, the reason for Mezeth's involvement with him. There was nothing that was wrong with him other than the fact that Mezeth thought that he could slip in unannounced.He purposely arrived at the crack of dawn so that nobody would be able to fathom what was happening. If word got out that he had arrived, Mezeth would want to sneak into hiding which was going to be destructive. Also there was no reason for them to jubilate. At least not yet.Eleanor found her way to Dominic's trailer. She was the only one that was aware of his arrival. She made sure that it was kept clean. Dominic hated dirt. She wasn't surprised to hear a knock and when she opened she saluted him. " Welcome, General." Dominic sighed, flaring his nostrils at the change in scenery.
Eleanor was stupefied by the way her boss was acting. She didn't know what was happening so she felt even more confused. What she didn't realize was the fact that there was absolutely nothing good about doing what one should have in the first place. "Sir, are you okay?" She panicked. Maybe he discovered something about her which she was sure that she wasn't guilty of. It was just people trying to make sure that he hated her "Where did you get this necklace from?" He demanded with wide eyes and she stilled in confusion while thinking about what could knock the General out of the park. It's not what he was expecting but the best thing also was to make sure that he was not just hallucinating."Answer me." He demanded."I don't know... My mother gave it to me when I was little?" She replied, worriedly. This man was acting strange and she also couldn't help but feel that way too. It was almost as though there was something else going on. Her heart was beating because it was very rare to
Dominic didn't wait before jumping into action. A few people who were waiting at the border were already fighting the incoming warriors. It was a mess because women and children were screaming at the top of their voices and no one knew what to do. They ran as bullets moved through the air like a maze.Selena had jumped out after them. She couldn't stay in that trailer because with her little knowledge of battle strategy, she knew that certain people were aware of her arrival and the enemy would also capitalize on that.Eleanor and a few soldiers were with her as they tried to make sure that no one was able to get through to the women. They locked them in a place that was called the vault. It was left with how they would be able to get out of that place without giving up the location.She signaled to Eleanor who was staring at her warily. " Let's find a way to make sure that we get out of this mess. I'll go out first then you stay with them." Selena shook her head. She didn't feel lik
Selena couldn't move away because two people were watching her now. Any move that she made was going to land her in trouble. So she did the only thing that she could do which was to move to the side to try and understand the perimeter at least to the best of her knowledge. "Are you saying that you don't want to take me with you?" She asked them when they were just staring at her like statues. She tried to scout their faces to see who was Mezeth seeing that they were all wearing masks. She didn't know what to do to make sure that there was no problem.If they were here, who was at the border? "You are just wasting your time with me. Why don't you take me along, the General would come?" This was a bid to distract them from the dungeon that she saw them heading towards. Mezeth halted in his tracks. "Would you lay down your life for people who aren't yours? People who don't even respect you a bit? What do you intend to achieve?" He responded.Selena shrugged, hoping that someone would
Mezeth turned to see his opponent from the beginning of his lifetime here. There was no need for them to have a spar when he could just shoot him and take over his city. He removed his gun and shot Dominic in the arm but was very surprised when it only bounced off and there was nothing that he could do to stop it. "Are you sure that you will be able to kill me? We'll settle this once and for all like the men that we are. Unless, you're scared of my skills. I understand that it can be quite stressful as sometimes you won't know what to do." Dominic taunted him. If there was anything that Mezeth avoided like a plague, it was being seen as weak. That was the bone of contention for ages past. He wanted to prove that he was better than him but that was totally impossible and that made him very annoyed at the immense joy and respect that was showered on Dominic."Why would I be scared of you? I would only want it to happen in the presence of your soldiers to watch how the mighty General h
Diana's grin stretched over her face when she saw the bewildered look in Selena's eyes. Coupled with that, she also loved the brewing storm that made themselves evident in that gaze. It was very suspicious that there was nothing that was stopping both of them from having a spat but they were just going about it civilly."Is there anything you want to say before I blow your brains off? I know that you are having a very hard time comprehending what's going on. But I urge you to make sure that you understand me and say your prayers." Diane bragged Selena was trapped. The murderous look she saw in Diana's eyes told her everything that she needed to know. "How did you discover this place?" She inquired instead, trying to buy time. Diana threw her head back and laughed at Selena who thought that she had everything mapped out. "You can never be smarter than the people who are out to see you or catch you. Just make sure that you don't fall into my trap because I ain't that forgiving." She r
Selena moved when Diana's body dropped close to hers. It was a speedy fall and she didn't know how to stop it.Phew! She heaved a louder sigh of relief as Marcel walked closer and lifted her into his arms. It was obvious that she was unable to move well and he was feeling very bad about that."Hey, thank you so much for helping me out." She muttered.He nodded gently and led her away. When they had gotten to the hill, she tapped him and looked around, the space was empty, the only closest object was a tree very far away."Are you telling me that you don't want to go further?" Selena cast a quick glance around the land and stared at him. "We can't leave this place when they are in trouble. Is there not anything that can be done to make sure that they are in trouble?" She replied.He shook his head. Actually, he had something that he could do which was make sure that there was nothing stopping him from getting her out of this mess."You need to get into the chopper that'd land here in
