Dominic stared at the phone for a few minutes after the call had ended. He never expected that she would be so blaise in her response. Was she with someone else? The normal Selena he knew would want to speak to him. He waited for her call since morning yet received none.Thinking that she was probably swamped with that was why she was unable to call, so he called her.Her response was upsetting to him, he was thinking of how he would navigate through this issue. Eleanor walked in when she saw him brooding and she was a bit worried for him, "Good day, sir." She greeted, she was feeling much better than the first day that she was admitted." How are you doing, Commander?" " Fine, sir." "What's the latest news?" " I was able to speak to a number of people in the camp and I found out that the lieutenant had been visiting other places without our knowledge." She told him.Dominic hummed a war tune as he stared at his commander. He had still not had that conversation with Anderson, he
" Let me call you back." He told her when he watched a strange car pull up in front of the courtyard. He was watching from the trailer refusing to go home no matter the circumstances, he was not even thinking about anything yet.He dialed Eleanor through their communication board and she came out, "Check what that man wants." He knew that it was a male that drove that red mustang. He watched from his angle gently as the person alighted.Eleanor and a few guards flanked the car and she flicked on her comm switch." Good day, how may we help you?" The man pulled off his glasses and with a scowl on his face looked her up and down, " Run along, lady I'm not here for you. I'm here for your master. I will talk to you later, no hard feelings." He said.Some soldiers cocked their guns in readiness to gun this man who dared speak to the commander in such a manner. " I'll tell you only one thing. If I decide that you will be kicked out of this place, you will." " I'd like to see you try."
He returned to his trailer and continued sipping his drink gently. That was how much he was ready to forge ahead and completely forget about anything pertaining to Anderson. If he decided to be stupid then he had nothing to lose.He had the evidence he required, it was for him to play his usual game, it had never failed and he had made use of it for the longest of time so this wouldn't be an exception. He grinned when he remembered the first day he saw Anderson, picked him up from the gutters and finally went ahead to make sure that he was looking well and fine, only to be repaid this way? It was baffling.Well, that went on to show that humans would always be users. Anderson might think that he had backing from other camps but he was sure that no sane leader would leave their army in his hands after using him as a tool of destruction. He might not know this but he was very happy with the circumstances.He pulled out his phone and called Eleanor, " Come up." He ordered.A few minutes
Selena slapped his arm playfully, " why didn't you tell me that you were returning soon?" She pouted, that meant that he was already on his way here when they were speaking to each other. " Maybe I wanted to surprise you." He smirked giving his face a boyish smirk, and Selena couldn't resist but standing on her tippy toes and kissing him.Her mother clicked her tongue in disgust at the pair. She shuddered in disgust too. How could Selena stoop so low to kiss such a riffraff? It was bad enough that she was marrying him. " Top of the morning to you too, ma'am." Dominic greeted his mother-in-law sarcastically who was staring at him like a vermin. "The morning is not good on this side of the coast, I'm not happy to see you" Rose replied bluntly, she had no time for pretense like her daughter would want her to do. She didn't know which was more annoying, the fact that he expected her to welcome him with open arms and wide smiles or the fact that he was a pauper who just managed to get l
Diana stared at the woman in front of her, while sizing her from head to toe." Aren't you glad to see me? It's been a month now, isn't that so since you saw me and you couldn't even reach out to me." Diana pushed Selena aside and sauntered into the house, " pick your jaw from the floor." She muttered as she breezed in.Selena was forced to close the door immediately as she tried to understand what just happened right now. " I don't know how shameless a woman can be to come right into this place?" Diana adjusted her bra cup when she saw her ex-husband approach and with a wicked smile on her face, she rushed quickly to hug him.As if he anticipated that move, he moved away from her at the last minute causing her to almost fall because she had thrown all her weight in getting married."You have no right to my body anymore. Do you get that?" Dominic shot her a frozen smile and she stared at him again wondering what he was being controlled by an ordinary woman when his cousin just did w
There weren't many things for her to do when she resumed because it was obvious that there was a reason why he was the head of the house, he made sure that there was always enough to go round in the house. As Selena was busy making cereal, he was busy making bacon and eggs which had the entire house sizzling with a scintillating aroma that questioned the existence of some things. It was evident that she wasn't someone who was able to cook such delicacies that would make a man's head spin.But Dominic didn't mind it one bit as long as he was the one who was cooking the meals. "I envy how easy it is for you to whip up something." She remarked when she saw the way he bustled in the kitchen like a natural. She sometimes wondered what women wanted, how Diana would throw away such a precious gift all in the name of greed. If she had her way and he was just being devoted to her she would be so happy with that. As someone who had suffered a lot in the hands of many men, she was ready to sti
Swamped with work and trying to meet various deadlines, the duo buried their heads into work not willing to even let anything pass. Selena reached out to Lily to inquire how she was settling in and she was happy to receive positive news. " I am still undergoing training in the establishment... It's compulsory for all staff members regardless of your rank wherever you are coming from. The man that brought me here says it's because he knows your fiance. That's why it's a bit fair here. That it's always very stressful and it wasn't as though everyone was going to get the job. This is their shedding period." " Good, but I don't have that long to wait, I'm in a bit of a hurry to make sure that I can get this done as soon as possible." Selena murmured and Dominic looked at her briefly before returning his focus to the letter he was editing."I know, I was also tired when I heard that, but I guess we have no choice." She said and Selena nodded."Keep me posted on any update, I need to know
He didn't waste time in going to Hastings later that day when Selena was busy recruiting people. His instincts were hardly wrong. He caught a glimpse of the fake delivery man's arm and discovered a familiar tattoo. There were only specific families and by that he meant cults who had that tattoo thus making them easily identifiable to a trained person. He arrived in a cab and stared at the high-rise building he was about to walk in. He flattened his cap very well which had almost been blown away by the breeze. He gets into the reception and walks straight to the receptionist. " Good morning, sir. How may I be of help to you sir?" the lady asked him sweetly. Dominic removed his glasses and walked towards her. " I need to speak with your manager." He tells her and she tells him there's no space for him to do that. He gets a bit angry but finally controls himself. " Tell him that Dom wants to speak with him." He repeated and the lady's eyes widened a bit before talking to him about
