"What is this? I don't think you understand that we are a corporate body, this is not going to suffice. This is not going to get me anywhere." She told him in annoyance. What was he expecting from her? To accept this trash he was able to come up with.

Dominic touched her arm softly, stopping her from talking too much.

"Redo it. It's not a bad thing to ask for help regardless of what the case might be. Emily might be in a better position to help with this." He told him.

Todd was not happy with the way his job was being relegated. Selena made him seem useless. He didn't mind redoing it but her tone was unfriendly and the last person he'd ever ask for help was Emily.

Dominic followed him out of Selena's office. He knew that his ego had suffered a great blow but that was none of his concern, he would rather that he did something better than allow his ego ruin him.

" Todd." He called and Todd swiveled around.

"Oh, I didn't see you sir. Is there anything you want me to do, sir?" He asked.

    The men turned toward the door and saw that Dominic was standing right in front of them. It was a ploy to see him in the flesh. " What are you doing here?" Dominic inquired, standing in front of the door blocking the entrance and making sure that they had no chance to escape. He recognized them but he couldn't place his finger on where he knew where. The men were afraid to repeat the stupid reason they told his wife because they knew that he would fish them out. " We have not been seeing you in the meeting, hence we are here for the levy." One of the men said. Dominic shook his head, "So, how much is the money?" He inquired from them as he stared them down waiting to hear what they were going to say so that he would know what to do to them. "Five thousand dollars." Dominic began to laugh, startling the men who were sitting. Selena stared at him questioningly wondering why he was laughing so hard, " Five thousand dollars? Let me see your license, your ID card too." He requeste

    Eleanor bowed her head slowly when she saw that she had interrupted an intimate moment. I'm sorry, ma'am." She apologized, but Dominic waved his hand in dismissal.Immediately Selena saw her, she knew who she was. From the way she was dressed. She wore black slacks and black cargo tops, she was shocked why she didn't wear camo. " It's great to finally meet you, Eleanor." Selena smiled, breaking the silence."It's good to see you too, ma'am." She bowed respectfully. Selena noticed that her accent was slightly different from hers. "Wait for me in the reception, Eleanor." Dominic ordered and she turned immediately."Are you supposed to turn her away like that?" Selena spoke and he shrugged. She didn't know his position in Victoria, because he was being soft with her didn't make him that soft hearted. He was dealing with her according to her frame. " Isn't she going to feel offended that you walked her out of the office?"" I'm not here to please her. She shouldn't have barged into my

    The next morning, Selena bubbled with so much energy as she prepared to go to the office. She could barely sleep the previous night as energy strummed through her veins. She could feel it like a dose of dopamine. It was exhilarating like a kid on sugar rush." You are very happy." Dominic commented from the bed where he was watching everything that was going on." She held a burgundy gown in front of her figure and beamed, "Should I wear this? I think it's too short." " No, it's not. It's fine." Selena stared at him. It seemed as though there was something bothering him because he wasn't speaking which was quite unusual, not like he was talkative but at least he was a bit better. "Are you sure? Are you alright?" Dominic nodded and stared at her when she walked closer to him, " What's the problem?" "Nothing, I thought something had happened to you, maybe in Victoria? You are moody and it's too early in the morning." Dominic shot her a blank look, he was just thinking about some st

    Dominic's hand was spread over Selena's chair as he stared at the couple before them. How did they manage to come together after all that happened between them? He guessed, in this case, love was blind. Or she was just being deliberately stupid.Who was he to judge? That would be a breakdown in his character." I didn't know that you also came to where the rich gathered." Silas smirked, his ire leaking through his voice. Dominic didn't rise to the bait because he knew that arguing with a fool was pointless. He nudged Selena gently when she wanted to respond. " Fools aren't to be answered. That's what they want, don't give it to them." He said and Camara's demeanor immediately changed, she was pissed that Dominic would ridicule her husband in that manner." What do you even have?" She retorted.Selena glowered at her but at Dominic's command didn't say anything. When they saw that this couple were not in the mood to banter with them, they walked away quietly." You should have let me

    Dominic later changed his mind about not going to the dinner. After considering how lonely and defenseless Selena might be, he decided to show up." Dominic!" Selena exclaimed when she saw him. His eyes rested on hers for a few minutes before strolling around the dining room. Ire was written all over their faces as he strolled in.Selena clung unto him, soaking up his strength as she looked up at him, searching his eyes wondering why he was finally here." I didn't know that you'd come." She muttered under her breath and he chuckled softly. Her family watched the interaction because they had never seen him this cheerful around anyone else. "I didn't want to leave you to the lions, they'll chew and spit you up in a second." Selena was surprised at the accuracy of his words, they were already arguing a few minutes ago. They were insinuating that she and Dominic had a fight, hence the reason for his absence. This had led her to begin to fight on his behalf and ended up trading words wi

    Selena's brows creased as she immersed herself in deep thoughts causing Dominic to be a bit worried. His eyes were on throughout the time that they were in the car and he almost spoke about it but decided to give her space.Maybe she was dealing with something else? He thought, so he returned his attention to his phone and decided to seize that opportunity to respond to the tons of messages lying in the phone.The first text he opened was that of Anderson's. They had not spoken for a long time and here he was texting him. It had better be for a good cause. He thought."Good evening, sir, I had a discussion with Micheal, and he is telling me that he wants to supply ammunition to Victoria." He said and I looked around. Oh, so that was the way they were doing it now. How obsessed could Micheal be with Victoria? It was no wonder why he called Anderson. " What did you say?" "I told him no." Anderson's text came faster like he had been waiting for this moment. "Good." Dom replied. He fli

    "I'll be back." Dominic told her and alighted from the car. He had already figured out what was going on." Where are you goi..." "I'll be back, don't go anywhere, make sure that she doesn't come down from the car." He told the driver who nodded.With a small nod, he approached the man slowly. The man was looking the other way, which was quite weird because it made him wonder who he was waiting for.When Dominic approached the man quickly turned in his direction. " Hey, man, what are you doing around this place?" He inquired playfully, making sure to tell him that he was aware of whatever hanky-panky game that he intended to play. The man stared at the General. This was the first time that he saw him up close and it baffled him that someone of such caliber could hide and look so chill. " Good evening, sir. I'm lost and I am looking for a place to stay." He lied.Dominic made a sound, Aha. " Can I see the direction you were given?" He inquired and the man stared at him wondering how

    Dominic's hands worked behind to loosen the ropes that he had used to tie the man. He dragged him close to the door of his neighbor's compound. Luckily, they had retired to bed. He slapped the man hard across his face and he jolted out of his unconscious state. The man looked around slowly trying to figure out where he was and Dominic gave him another resounding slap which had him clutching his face tightly." What did I do to you, General?" He queried. Dominic shot him an intimidating stare and the man tried to crawl away. Dominic placed a leg on his stomach, stopping him from moving anywhere. " You are hell bent on making your life miserable, isn't it? Tell me why you don't want to tell me who sent you." " It's because I don't know, and I'm telling the complete truth. I was contacted to come see someone." The man lied again.Dominic gritted his teeth. He would not readily get involved in a fight with people from Kester City, but this man was pushing him. Back at Victoria, he wou

    "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
