"Alaric, what do you think about the boss and Linda? I think both of them are in love." Draco poured himself a glass of water before he resumed his meal.Pausing his meal, with a half-filled mouth, he voiced. "I don't know, but as a growing man, I can say Linda is in love. And as for the boss, na na na… I can't say anything about it."Draco took a spoonful of the meal. "I think the boss has completely fallen out of love and sealed his mind to having a woman in his life. Even if Linda loves him, I think she would have to go through a lot before she can get into his heart.""Yeah, that's why the proverb, slow and steady wins the race, exists." Alaric chipped in, focusing on his meal.Draco paused on his meal for a while, gazing at Alaric. "Alaric, what about you?""What about me?" Alaric sipped from his glass of water before continuing."Yeah, I've never seen or heard you talk about a wife, or kids or family… Or even a girlfriend," Draco whispered softly, but Alaric smiled slyly instead

"We meet by 8 pm." Klaus had said on the phone.Edwin had wanted to ask what it was about, but he had to keep his mute. Whoever will play by Klaus' side would need to exercise a lot of patience and wisdom."Alright, boss. I will be there by 8." Edwin cut the call, and checked his time. "An hour to go, guys remember. If I don't return, don't sweat on my demise, do not miss me, just go with the plan.""We won't boss. But you also have to return, many lives depend on you." Alaric stated trying to dissuade the negative words Edwin spouted."Let's see how it goes. But now, I need to be on my way!" Edwin dipped his hands into the armholes of his black jacket, it was winter, and going out at that time of the night would be cold."We wish you the best of luck, boss," Draco said, throwing himself around Edwin for a tight hug, then the same did Alaric."It's good I have you both here to wish me goodbye." Edwin smiled, stopped a cab, and zoomed off."Alaric, the boss should be back, right? This

"Guys, you haven't told me a thing as regards getting the lawyer? You both have been moody all day, not talking to either Perry or me. What's going on? I deserve to know." Linda loudly questioned Xander and Tony upon her entry into Tony's room."It's nothing, we ar…e still on it so far…" Xander replied, staring at Tony."Is this true Tony? You guys are like this or is there something that you both aren't telling me? Something I need to know?"Tony turned to face Linda. "It's just as said, Linda. Prefer you stay out of it, and let us both handle it. When we get to the point where you need to come in, we will call on y…""No, guys… I'm nervous. I c…" she used when she realised both of them were keeping track of time, and on such short notice, Xander voiced to say."I think we should get going so we don't miss out on the target.""Wait, a minute… Is it the lawyer? What happened? Are you guys not able to get him?""Xander, let's go," Tony said emotionlessly.Linda was confused, she didn'

Klaus led Kendel into the big mansion. Two things were on Kendel's mind. Klaus was either playing him or he was real. However, whatever the case, he was ready for either of them."Welcome to my abode." Klaus opened the door leading the way for Kendel to go in."This place is adorable, boss. It's massive." Kendel appreciated gazing at the exquisite chandeliers. A plush, velvet sofa dominated the centre, adorned with elegant accent pillows that added a touch of colour. The room was bathed in soft, natural light from a row of tall windows framed by luxurious drapes.A stunning chandelier hung from the ceiling, casting a warm, inviting glow. Edwin's eyes were drawn to the intricately designed coffee table, made from polished wood and adorned with carefully arranged books and a vase of fresh flowers. The walls featured a collection of tasteful artwork, and a grand piano sat in one corner, its keys reflecting the ambient light.Edwin wasn't surprised because of the magnificent place, but

"Boss, I have a question," Kendel said, still faking tipsy. "Yea, sure you are free… Today is a free zone. Tomorrow might not be the same." Klaus laughed, pouring himself another glass, this time also calling on a maid to serve them small chops that would compliment the drink."Hmmm… Boss, you mentioned K5 earlier, may I know who they are? I'd like to know more about them."Klaus let out a laugh, dining and wining at the same time. "Ok, little boy, let me get it right, you want me to satisfy your curiosity right? I guess I will. But this stays here," he pointed at the four walls."That's a promise, boss." Kendel was attentive."K5 are five people. They are my boss, they control the Meritual gang, but then they are not the ultimate, we have the last commander, that's where the K5 get their orders from.""Really, so K5 isn't the ultimate?""You've heard that, no other soul had to hear it from you," Klaus said firmly even though tipsy."That's a promise, I wouldn't boss…. But the K5 do

"Ah…" she was just about to scream, but then Xander sealed her lips with his, consuming them slowly, but catching her unaware."Uhmm….umm." Linda struggled, but he was persistent. However, she was quick to pull out of the kiss and threw a slap into his face immediately. “Are you crazy Xander? I thought you were different!” she painfully said those words before turning out to leave.“I'm sorry.” That was all Xander could say before she angrily left. With an exasperated sigh, he fell into the bed. “I messed up, big time.” “Xander?!” Tony and Perry called with urgency, and they both walked in, but Xander wasn’t so quick to adjust himself that they didn't know what went wrong.“Are you okay buddy?!” Tony asked, catching a glance of his pale expression. “What do you mean? I'm good, I'm cool. I just need a bit of rest.” Xander responded by rising from the bed to his study table, pretending to flip through his phone.“Well, we both doubt you are fine. If not, Linda wouldn't have left your

"Guys, Klaus called," Edwin called out with his phone chiming in one hand, alerting Alaric and Draco."Klaus called?!""I said he is calling, not he called!" Edwin responded with panic when he appeared before the table."Any idea on what he could say?!" "Not until you pick it, boss." Alaric advised.'"Alright,” Edwin responded with an unsure tone. “Let's see what the big boss has to say.” He picked up the phone obviously expecting a lashing out, but then Klaus came laughing over the phone which brought ease to him before anything else.“Hey, Kendel, drink mate. I hope you did enjoy the liquor?”Kendel exchanged glances with Alaric and Draco, and then he responded. “I enjoyed every bit of it, boss. Looking forward to having another with you again.”“Interesting. Many had always said I am cruel, It quite interesting how you did find pleasure in drinking with me, and then you also crave for more…Hmm.” he was briefly silent before he continued. “ We should get to have another drink soon

"Can we talk?" Xander softly spoke to Linda after breakfast while she was attempting to return to her room. Hearing Xander speak, she froze on the spot waiting to hear what he had to say. "What is it, Xander? Do you want to attempt to kiss me again?" Linda asked, expecting a swift response. Xander had to sigh slightly before saying any more words. "Look, Linda. I truly am sorry. I never intended to do that, but I couldn't control myself."He placed his arm on her shoulders which she shrugged off, placing her arm beneath her breast, and clicking her head sideways. "You need to know I… Love you." he stuttered trying to speak his mind, not without considering how she was going to take it. Linda scoffed before saying. "Now, I can say you are indeed crazy." she strode off, but he followed after her. "Wait, Linda, there's something else I need to say, and I need you to listen to me please." He sincerely pleaded. Linda frustratedly stopped, impatiently waiting for whatever he wanted to
