These males pressed against each other with the weapon on their hands as they kept fading away in the dark and reoccurring under the moon spot light. Anger filled them up with each desiring to attain victory. Alex was unharmed but Lucian attained injuries, he had made such he wins the fight with Lucian and so geared up in him a raging flame in him.It was his first time fight with an adult but since he was in an adult body, he would seem normal to lucian. While he fought to win, he was careful not to injure the wrothful Lucian, but that wouldn't work because anger could cause one to kill the other.Meanwhile, Natalie had set the trapped girls free who were still unconscious. She had to drag them somewhere safe, and was heading towards where Alex could probably be before lights out. With the aid of torch light, she prodded to where he was. Her steps were heavy and slow as she fought to keep her drowsy eyes awake. That robot from earlier had indeed beaten her almost to pulp but the desi
It seems Rodger would have been forgotten along with his mother during the whole scenario.However, his help was needed now, which to blow the building once he gets the signal which was a green light coming out from the building.Alex had run out with Natalie bleeding in his arms. Rodger would have blown the place off if he hadn't seen Alex. For Mrs. Helen, she was restless where she sat and decided to take a look over what was happening. One would wonder why she didn't take the job of a reporter who was always intrigued to fetch news from occurring incident.Her interest in knowing what was going on made her encounter Alex and Rodger. Her help was needed over here because she needed to drive the truck towards the building and get the other ladies about before Rodger blows off the building, while Alex drove Natalie to the hospital with the car he and Rodger had driven in earlier.Although Alex had instructed him that the cops would be over there to get a hold of Lucian, and Evelyn. Ra
AT THE HOSPITALHe could be seen pacing to and fro with his hands crossed at the back. Fear had him as well-wishers stood by him.It has been a while since she was in the operating room, and everyone hoped she survives.Soon, the doctor worked out to deliver the news. They needed a blood transfusion on her since she had wasted much blood because the drive from that isolated place to this hospital was a distance.None of them there had the same blood group with her except Sophia, and so Alex had to make a call through to her.Sophia had intentions of leaving the country that very day before his call came through. At first, she never intended to help because of the heartbreak Alex offered her.But then, the constant pleading from those whose voices appeared in the background made her change her decision.Luckily, she arrived in time to assist, and she was a great help. The operation was successful and so everyone was excited except Sophia who was feeling bad over Alex who she had though
The rest were excited to know that Natalie was out of danger, and so said their best wishes to her before leaving the hospital.Only Alex stayed behind to look after whom his heart beats for. He didn't leave her side for a moment.The rest ladies had to live a proper life and forget that they had an affair with the man known as Ethan, though rather than hating on him, they were just friends to him.Well, for the convicts, they were yet to be declared as criminal. These two weren't ready to go down alone, as they desired to drag Alex along.Meanwhile, both mother and son weren't happy with the fact that the life of Alex would be termed “happily ever after” although, he had returned what he promised yet, it still hurt them that he lives Mostly the fact that troubles them is that Alex was yet to discover their secret. Rodger doubts if Natalie had opened up to Alex that they were working together.Besides, even she was going to be held accountable for lying in the first place. These two
They both stared at themselves as they were desiring each other in bed already. Alex took her into his arms and ventured for his room. It seems they had been waiting for this day to fulfil their erotic desires.Once they got there, he began to kiss her all over wildly and ripped her clothes off, she was only left her bra and underwear. She let out a groan as his hands knead her br**st. Natalie seemed satisfied in having s*x with this man as it was out of love.Alex laid her on the bed and lustfully teased her nude body with his eyes while laying on her. It was going to be the first he was having a woman in bed, but maybe not for Ethan, his grown up self.His hands trail down to her c**t and shift the underwear she had on, and could feel hot down there. Her body squirm with sensation as she could see he was taking off what he wore.Her eyes exposed his body as he was well-built and his abs visible. He had such a seductive body and understood while the other ladies didn't want to let go
Natalie could sense her sister was scared over something and with what she said, it could mean Alex wasn't where she assumed he could be.Vera sighed and rubbed her left brow. She had just witnessed where Alex could probably be and was heartbroken by that.Her sister shouldn't have fallen for a man who makes the news headlines everyday. She deserved more than him.“Where's he Vera if he isn't at work?” She asked, eluding her sister's memory. Vera paced closer to Natalie and placed her hands on her shoulders, side by side.“He got arrested this morning”For a moment, Natalie felt breathless as she almost fell down where she stood, but then the cushion wedged her legs from behind.“Arrested? Why?” She furthered as tears had brewed up in her eyes, ready for a downpour.“Possibly, he must have turned himself in…well, I happen to see him at the police custody when I went to visit a convicted friend of mine” Vera expressed sadly as she could see that Natalie looked like one who would pass a
He sat quietly tapping his fingers on the desk as a detective evaluates him, demanding his statement and also a lawyer who would defend him.This young man acted like one who didn't want to be defended and had already passed the verdict on himself.He was lost in thoughts when someone pulled him by the shoulders with tears and anger.“Alex!” His eyes raised slowly to gaze at the woman who call out to him. It was Natalie who scoffed at him unbelievably.“You're not meant to be here…”“What? You just chose to leave anytime you want, right?” She mused, interrupting his words, panting and gazing at the detective who had to give them some privacy.“It's for the best Natalie, you're not going to make me change my mind” he beckoned, not looking at her in the eyes as he feared freaking out when speaking to her.“Really? Then what would happen to me? I'm not going to let you go to jail, and you know that”“Natalie…”“Alex, everyone is worth change, and you made that”“But I also deserve the p
Earlier, at the company, when Rodger had caught up with this young man, he quickly took a photo of this man and then decided to interrogate him on who he was.However, the strange man suddenly said;“If you want answers, come find”He gave Rodger an address and stomp away from his hold. The security agents around had to pave way on Rodger's command.Rodger hadn't left the company when a call came through to him. It was from Vera, who required that Natalie wishes to speak to him.At first, he didn't want to head to her place, but then Vera had explained that Natalie was in the hospital, and so he hurried to attend to her demands.He felt sad for her state of health as the situation was revolving around the man whom she dearly loves.The fact that the death of her parents were his fault made him sick as the truth can't be hidden forever and so it was best, Alex took all the blame.He sympathized with Natalie, but the brave girl needed no one's sympathy as the reason she had called Rodge
His nervous eyes suddenly turned dark as his tender feet hide behind his mother. His chapped lips muttered some words as his sad face could prove that something troubled him. He looked timid as his ears tingled at the sounds he heard which drew his attention to the scene displaying before him. He sensed the tears of children, wives and mothers. They were at the train station and soon, those they came to say goodbye to would depart. It made him scared as his eyes met the gaze of the young man who intended to kiss his mother. The place he stood with his mother was rowdy and it gave him goosebumps as his hands held the garment his mother held. His grip on the garment of his mother tighten as a young man waved at him with tears gathered in his eyes. It felt that was the last moments he would see the one person he looked up to. This lad had a lot of disappointment buried inside of him and had wishes to turn back time. Today was a day his lips had to mutter goodbye to his father who was a s
Dark tree trunks, shadows, overhanging limbs across the path seen at the last second, clumps of bushes, barely visible black trails snaking through the undergrowth. The moon shone through a lattice of leaves, patchy sky and stars seen in glimpses through tree breaks, tall shadowed pines stretching up like arrows into the sky, streaks of cloud against the earth, Wind slipping through leaves, cracking undergrowth with each step, creaking tree trunks, the flutter of wings unseen, snapping twigs, grass. Heavy pants could be heard through this dangy wood as a man could be seen covered in blood while holding a little child in his arms. His torn outfit, bruised face, dangling hair could tell he was escaping. His feet never gave a halt to the impending danger behind him as surviving from his raging foes was all that matter. He curdled this petrified child tightly, groaned in pains and tottered deeper into the woods. His only energy was the child he vowed to keep alive despite the pains and hu
He held a mini box in his hands and a headphone on. His lips mumbling words and his head nodding slowly. His feet stride slowly as the environment he found himself seems to be isolated except the creepy sounds of insects. A soft sigh left his lips as his eyes gazed around and then rested on a building in front of him. From the looks of it, he knew the reason why he was here in this abandoned building that would now become his own. He had no fear about what possibly could happen here. Rumors had it that the past occupants here never survived a night. A finger of his ran through his ruffled hair as he bit his lips and smirked. It was never his wish to come here but then circumstances made him do so. He was never good at anything yet had a dream to be a doctor and enrolled in a medicine school only to get kicked out due to a conspiracy and sent here to the tower of death. Magic was the key in that school and every perpetrator of a heinous crime was sent here as a death sentence, though w
The swirling wind swept across the place as the cloud had gathered for a heavy downpour giving signs for the victim of it's wrath. The dark was drawing in and people could be seen hurrying to take shelter away from the impending storm that would come upon them. Steadily, a downpour began wetting the earth and anything its stroke could come upon. Stacy was found in her pyjamas, t-shirt, flipflop slippers and face cap striding in the rain which had become heavy. Her hair were being toss aside by the whirlwind as the cold for the day had captured her. She had no idea of where she was heading to. There were no cabs around neither did she look like one who was ready to go home. At that moment, she wanted death to come take her. It was definitely over but too soon. The situation got her asking why it always had to be her. Why did she pull an act that had a bitter ending. Did he know she had to swallow her pride to hug him in people's presence? He felt like a gentleman who would understand h
Ryan smiled and began a speech by saying it was an honor to be seated with kings and queens of the upper hands. He had only seen them in TV and they look cute in real life. Furthermore, he praised them a bit to lighten up the mood mostly the ruthless looking emperor who let out a sided smile at the young man's adornment. Stacy was troubled that he wouldn't win her father but it seems like he would because the emperor loved praises. The only people who were against them were her brothers. Ryan had to lie about the companies he had and awards won as a distinguish businessman. The emperor went further to ask how much his assets worth and Stacy answered that on his behalf. The only man was someone who loved proof and couldn't be bought easily. The prepared Stacy had that with her which left Ryan stunned. The emperor was impressed by that as only a wealthy man, posed and perfect could be accepted to the family as though his were perfect because from Ryan's observation, this family was fall
She tried to speak, but was choked with tears. Her tearstained face was puffy and swollen with grief, crestfallen, she realised that her only chance to succeed was gone. However, proving the guest wrong was her aim. Her stunning wedding dress which had buried her suit her perfectly as she was groomed beautifully for this day. Today would have been the most remarkable day of her life if it wasn't screwed up by her groom. Here she was in the dress room cussing at every scene that had happened an hour ago. Her supposed groom had just rejected her last minutes to the wedding ceremony. If it were her wish, she would have halted the time. It was so embarrassing and agonizing for her as she needed to stay strong and sought a way out. Attempting not to freak out, she began to comfort herself.At that moment, time had stopped as the gnawing grief still held her still. Her make had almost wash away from the uncontrollable tears while she stood facing the mirror as her mind contemplated. She fol
The sun had risen up steadily as it shone its ray through windows which slightly paved way for it to penetrate. It bright light rested on her forehead as her mouth let out a gasp which was accompanied by a groan. She fluttered her lashes slowly trying to get her eyes open. Her body felt weaken and glued to where she laid. Gradually, her blurry vision was becoming vivid and it got to her notice that she was in a room. Her hands raked her rumbled hair as she felt like she was in a trace. The few memories she could recall was being locked up in a capsule and found herself staggering towards a foggy area. Her brown eyes scrutinized the room which didn't look like a ward or hers. The confused lady felt her temperature which was warm and then rolled her gaze to the window which gave way for the sun to greet her."What happened?" She questioned as though someone would give her the answers she needed. Miranda winced with pain while trying to massage her body. She still couldn't understand wha
Doctor Eric had his eyes on the young man who had been trapped inside this capsule for 20 years. He often wondered how his mentor knew about the miseries of passing through a border between the living and afterlife. The young doctor still had his speculations if he should cut this first experiment out of life. Furthermore, how did he survive in a foreign world all these years? He had thought that was the end of the young man but someone proved he was still alive and striving to live. It must have been difficult for this first experiment to adapt and face difficulty.Eric hadn't muster up courage to do as professor Henry commanded and he knew if the old man turns up, he would cut him off. For now, he was all alone in the laboratory and time wasn't on their side. From observation, the second experiment was left with 24 hours to return. He raked his left brow and strides towards Miranda's capsule, she was breathing just fine and had no complications yet. Though, he never could tell what
They arrived at an abandoned factory and he gestured to her that she had only few minutes to hand over the letter. She cleared her throat as she mustered up courage to seek after Eloise who needed to see the letter which her father brought to her. Thanks to someone, she got to her destination and found the Eloise's location. She was a teenage girl who lived in an forgotten factory and had no one asking after her. Tyler chose to stay outside but Miranda had no confident to enter this dark, lonely factory alone and requested Tyler comes along promising she wouldn't trouble him further. Furiously, he got a torchlight and led the way while she was clingy from behind. She had even banged her head on his back due to how close she was and he retorts at her to stay inches away from him. She apologized and stepped ahead of him as he handed her the torchlight since she decided to take the lead not to trouble this gloomy man. They were different doors in this factory and Tyler's voice gave her d
