What the hell were you doing! “ Henry shoved the guard hard on his chest. He was the one that had kept outside his room side. He had said he didn’t see anything in the house. Henry was growing to hate inefficient people. He looked around and could see stacks of chairs at the window of Damien’s room. Why was the window of Damien’s room open? Who opened the fucking gate? Some people were about to lose their jobs.His nose flared as he stared at the man. “Get out” he spat and the man flew out of the room. He sighed and began to gather the chairs and close the window. Henry and his men had camped in front of the VP’s house when that frantic call came in. henry could recognize who’s voice it was. Max was a hardworking boy. He had been there as he was been spoken to by Damien’s mother. He also promised that he would be off help in any way. He was the one who called Henry’s attention to how weird Dex had been behaving lately. He was too defensive. Lashed out on people easily and said he
A day earlier.The moment Max took off, Dex knew that he had to catch him. If he managed to tell a soul, He Dex was as good as dead. He ran with all his might and didn’t even stop when there was an incoming vehicle. The guy swerved and he was free. Max ran past the guard and suddenly, Dex couldn’t see him. He wondered where he went. Then he heard a door bang. It was in Henry’s quarters. He wasn’t sure if he was around but he risked that. He would cook some Lie. Luckily for Dex, no one was in the area. The. He heard Max speak.“De—” he didn’t want to him finish the word immediately Dex burst into the room like a broken dam and fired multiple times at Max. He shirt on the head and in his chest. He wanted to end his life. He called his men and asked that they take Max to the hospital. He warned them to hang around till he was out in the morgue. They did this discreetly.Meanwhile Dex used the window to escape, he would not arouse so much suspicion. He was about leaving the house when he
As Henry knelt in that dark forest with his hands behind his head, and a gun pointed to his chest, he thought about his life.“So this was the end?” He thought. He thought of how he had lived his life. Was he happy? Did he go after what he wanted? What of his parents? He wondered what they would think of him. And Damien. Maybe if he died now, it would be okay. Maybe he and Damien would have a good laugh. Damien would laugh at him for sweating now. He had known from the look of the people who had him under gun point, they were out to kill him. At first, he thought it was a kidnap but now he knew better. He knew they were sent by someone but then, why covet your face. It was of no use, since they were going to kill Henry. Henry wondered who and who were behind the mask. Did they cover up because he knew them? Well that didn’t bother him for long as he knew he was going to die.“ boss we have him here” a voice on the phone said.“ Yes sir” he replied.“Henry Barlow. You cane into the
Dex’s POVI woke up to voices arguing. I got out of bed, my little feet barely making it to the floor and I jump down. Everywhere is so dark that I can’t even see my hands or my next step.Where is mum and dad? I walked down the hall way. Then suddenly there was a bright light plunged in my face. Strong hands held my face in place as the light illuminated downstairs, at the siting room, I could see mum and dad knelling with hands on their backs.“Dex! Close your eyes!” then the next thing I hear is a string of gunshots and mum and dad fell limp to the ground. Their blood splattered on the white cushion.“NO!!!!!!!!!!” I yelled*******“Where the hell is Luther?” Dex thundered. He was growing impatient by the minute. He had shot and killed a bunch of people but he still had not seen Luther. He was lucky that before Luther could act, he had arrived. He shot all the ones, he had asked to shot the ones he had bribed. He shot anyone who was willing to cooperate and took over the house.
One month later.Henry was happy as some people congratulated him on being the second in command. He didn’t think he would reach this height in such a short time.When Max heard that, he was elated and couldn’t wait to go back to the house. Henry told him he wouldn’t be coming back to the house. He prepared some money and he was to go to school to study. Amidst all the celebration, Henry had noticed that he didn’t see Lukas. Lukas had not even come to congratulate him on it. He felt weird but he thought it was his arrogant side speaking. Luther was happy and gave the whole of Henry and his group, including Lukas a vacation trip to reward them. They had gone to the Caribbean. ******Though Lukas kept behaving like he had been forced on the trip, henry didn’t let that prevent him and the others from enjoying the trip. But he didn’t ignore the fact that Lukas had changed. He was not goofy or lively anymore. If he was being honest, Lukas was annoying.******“Truth or Dare” Lukas said s
Lukas was jealous and it was obvious even to the blind. He didn’t understand why Luther had given the second in command title to Henry. He had just got here. He didn’t know how the affairs of the mafia was run. He was just a young boy he showed careless bravely. He hoped Henry would get killed while putting himself on the line for others, but that was not the case.They had gone many jobs and each of them Henry showed good leadership character. It Irked Lukas Greatly.“I am so happy he is the second in command” Martha, the head cook announced Lukas looked at her irritatingly. He had come to hang out in her room.“Not you too” Lukas said.“Come on he is good” She said defensively.“I thought you were Dex’s person” Lukas said as he sat up.“Yes I was but now he is dead” she said. Lukas shut his eyes and ground his teeth. Everyone was singing Henry’s praise. He was disgusted.He stood up and grabbed his keys.“Where are you going?” she asked.“Anywhere as far it’s not here. You guys di
Henry was no fool, he understood what was going between him and Lukas. He noticed that he slept most times. He didn’t attend to most jobs, he was always MIA. He heard from reliable source that he was talking with outside people and had a business. Things like this could make Luther forget a bullet on his head but he couldn’t report him. He was still his friends. Whenever Henry got pissed, He remembered the three of them. When Damien was still alive. He couldn’t report him.One thing Henry feared was that, when he would be pissed beyond his capacity, he might not be able to hold it in. He could be the one putting the bullet in Lukas’ head.He was coming back from a jog when his phone rang. It was a Laura. She had fled the country on Luther’s orders.“ hi babe” she said. Laura had been giving Henry clues. Asking him if they were now a couple. Henry didn’t know how to handle it do he avoided the question. He had thought that if he got to find Damien’s murderer, he would be at peace, bu
Unaware of what he had done, Lukas went around town, clubbing. He thought of a perfect plan to seal his mother’s mouth. He knew she was a greedy woman.“Lukas will you come here right this instant! Don’t you dare walk out on me” his mother shouted at the peak of her voice. He stopped in my tracks and turned to her.“Mum, could you please tone down your voice.” Lukas frowned “Lukas you can’t keep going to parties every weekend. What of work?” she said as she kept following me around like a puppy. Her voice composed this time.“Mum please leave work alone for me. Right now I just want to unwind. “He knew just the best thing to shut her up. He went into his car and took out wads of cash. He estimated the amount. It was triple of the amount he always gave to her. She smiled shyly as he stared at the money. He knew his mother to well. She was a gold digger that was why she ended up with a liar like his father.“Now mum, if you would excuse me I have somewhere I have to be” Lukas said ki
