Meanwhile back at the party, Elena was scared as she noticed the person in a devil’ costume staring at her. She couldn’t be herself as she thought series of ways to evade the man. She looked for Claire but she didn’t know she had gone to. When Elena turned back again, to check the strange guy was still looking at her, she was surprised. The man was nowhere to be seen. It was like he had just disappeared into thin air. She strained her neck, searching far for him.“Who are you looking for?” Elena flinched. She turned to find Claire behind her.“Stop doing that” Elena clutched her hand on her chest and Claire giggled. “Where have you been? U have been looking everywhere for you?”“Oh nothing I was around” Claire replied. Elena watched her friend. She had a few crumpled part on her dress. Her lipstick was not as bright as before. She knew. Claire looked away to avoid Elena’s taunting gaze.“You were back there snugging some dude right?” Elena smiled coyly. Claire playfully pushed her. “
Henry knocked on the door. “Come in” came Ruby’s voice. She had washed up and was given clean clothes to wear by the maids.“Hello Ruby” Henry said as he walked into the room. He was accompanied with Jackson and Marcus.“How are you doing?” Jackson asked.“I’m okay” she smiled. “Okay Ruby we need to take down Ivan” she nodded. “But we need your help” Henry added. Ruby went quiet for a moment. “I don t think she can do it” Jackson muttered to Henry. “I can do it” she said immediately. “It’s just that I need some things in place” she said her eye shone with determination. As in a depth of many seas, Ruby recalled what had happened before she got to leave with Windsor. She shook her head. Her whole life was turned upside down, the moment she was kidnapped by Windsor’s men. Because she was too young, she could be put into the prostitution business, so Windsor decided to make her a maid. His son was like 2 years younger than her but he took pleasure in bullying her at every moment he g
“Clean this up” henry breathed.Henry walked the long length of the warehouse. His gun in one hand and a cigar in the other. If he took it out and shot the whimpering big baby named Ivan, it would be an easy death and easy and Ivan should be put side by side for any reason. He wanted to kill him but he wanted him to suffer.“Sir the water” one of his men spoke. He turned to the bowl and washed his bloodied hands. He sighed as he remembered, that he was yet to take off his watch.“Please spare me” Ivan cried. He was missing a few teeth. Courtesy Henry. After that Attack, Henry asked the two of his men to escort Ruby to the airport while he and the boys finished up. They bundled up Ivan out of the house, as If they were the police. When he noticed that they had switched cars and were driving through lonely forest road, Ivan became restless. Firstly he cussed at them. Threatening fire and brimstone. He warned them to let him go or he would kill them. Marcus told him to relax. That if he
Henry’s POV“A mole was a danger to himself and everyone around him”Those were Luther’s words when Dex was misbehaving. Till this day, those words have stuck with me. After the understanding of what was going on, I knew indeed that I had a Mole in the gang. Someone was feeding Lukas information with what was going on the pack. I knew I had to act fast or the outcome would be brutal. I had to do something to lure him out. I was no Luther who had Powers to sniff out Moles. “I have not been at peace since the incident” I said to Jackson. We used the family of the men to retrieve their bodies for a funeral.“Me too” he sighed. “It feels like someone was constantly watching us”“What do we do?” I asked.” I have an idea” Marcus added. He leaned in and whispered into my ears. I smiled on hearing that. “It is risky but it’s doable”**********And so I had secret guards watching, my gang members. Then I called them all foe a meeting. I told them I would be going to the mountain house for a l
Frustration was not a good feeling to wake up to, but Elena supposed it was better than regret. She loved Danny but lately he had been misbehaving. Their communication was poor. She had been hearing the rumors that he was seeing his father’s secretary. Elena choose to not accuse him. He had never made her feel he was with another woman, well until now.“Hello miss” Elena looked up to find the sales rep staring at her with a smile.“Oh I’m so sorry, please get me these two” Elena smiled as she pointed to a men’s watch and a boxer brief. Danny would love these. Tomorrow was Valentine’s Day and she had been saving up, to get him something. They had agreed to meet up tomorrow. She sprang up from her seat and walked to the dressing mirror. She stared at her reflection and somehow couldn’t recognize the woman staring right back at her. She was not happy neither was she sad. She did not hear from Henry again and she wondered if he took her message serious“Thank you” she said smiling at the
Elena’s POVThere I was at Lee‘s house after a date night. We were officially dating after the first date. I was on vacation at the Bahamas and I found myself a new boyfriend and some friends. What I did not know was that all these had been planned. “Is that really all you’ve got?” I panted, raising my eyebrows as my gaze moved down his body. One of the things I loved about Lee was that he knew how to make me feel loved and wanted in bed. And also I think, I have fallen head over heel for him. I hope I don’t get hurt but then something was off. Lee never slept with me. We made out but that was it.“It’s nothing. This isn’t even close to enough.” Lee chuckled, shaking his head playfully.“Hmm…” I teased and raised my hand, running my thumb lightly down his nipple.“Are you serious right now?” He frowned and laughed mockingly. “That feels like it’ll be enough. You should put more effort into pleasing me than you do. That sounds like a good way to get your mind off what I’m going to do
Henry solved the problem of the mole but he had no idea of what was coming. He didn’t know his problems were just starting.Two days later it began. Luther had three lawyers in his legal team. They were the next in line. First it was David.David, a seasoned lawyer of the country, known for his punctuality and dedication, set out for work on a crisp Monday morning. He checked his watch, noting that he had just enough time to grab his morning coffee before his first meeting. With his briefcase in hand, he stepped onto the bustling city sidewalk, lost in thought about the day ahead. He had to get ready for court. His case would be called first.Deep in his thoughts, unaware of his surroundings, a sleek black car had been tailing him since he left his apartment. As David turned the corner onto a quieter street, the car pulled up beside him, and before he could react, he felt a sharp blow to the back of his head and he passed out.When David regained consciousness, he found himself bound
“ What do you mean, they were attacked?” Henry turned to Dave, the youngest recruit into the group. The night was just beginning. It looked calm but there was nothing Peaceful about how the night would be.“ Boss, David has been kidnapped. His wife called saying he didn’t come home last night. Jack was threatened. He had been trying the reach out to you but your number was not available. And for Markus the head of the team. His secretary sold him out and he was attached and beaten. Right now, he is at the hospital” Dave said. Henry sighed deeply. He looked up and ran his hand through his hair.“You may go” he dismissed Dave.“these problems… they never stop coming do they?” Jackson said.Henry looked lost in thought. He didn’t speak immediately. “ problems are a sigh that we are alive. A lack of problems means one thing and it’s death” Henry said. He pushed the table away, his dinner sat untouched. It didn’t look like he would come back for it.Henry stood up. “come on we are leavi
