What is taking so long? You've been on this for quite a while now and still no result.""It's not as easy as it sounds, you have to be patient, I have to be subtle about it or else it won't work.""I don't have time to be patient! You're a woman for God's sake. How hard can it be to seduce a man?" His voice vibrated with anger as he spoke. "You're wasting my time." He complained harshly."I'm working on it, just give me a little more time.""I knew I should have never trusted you with this. I should have just turned to Shirley to Anne.""No! I can do it, I only need a good–""I don't care Rachel! Just do what you have to do, and do it quick. We are running out of time here.""Yes, I understand.""Good. Now you should leave before someone sees us together. I'll show Nathan Anakins that no one ever stands up to me and wins."★★★"Honey? Can you see what I'm seeing?" Doris asked as she sat up straight. "It looks like Rachel finally found herself a boyfriend at last."She stared at him bu
Now, I have called my lawyer, and we have made evey necessary adjustment. Doris, come here dear. " Doris obliged and moved to where her grandmother was seated. "I'll need you to sign here, here, and here." After Doris had tendered her signature in the designated places, her grandma smiled and handed her the documents. "There, from now on, everything owned and managed by the Castiel family now belongs to you, and your son.""Congratulations love." Nathan said in a cheerful voice, the moment was even more enjoyable for him because he was the only one who looked cheery."Thank you. Oh mother, aren't you happy for me?" She asked even though it was obvious that her mother wasn't."Congratulations." She managed. "If that is all, then can we go now?" She didn't wait for an answer before she got up and walked out, followed by her bodyguard/ son, Owen."Congratulations dear." Doris's dad said with a smile. At first glance, one could think that that was a real, genuine proud father smile. But t
Thankfully, the bullet didn't hit any vital organs so he was safe… well except for the excruciating pain he felt. After a brief operation, the little ammo had been removed from his back and all that was left was for his wound to heal.The neighbors had alerted the cops when they heard a gunshot, and thanks to an officer who lived nearby, Owen was tamed before he could do any serious damage. Despite the opposition of his parents, he was arrested and detained for attempted murder… and he was to be taken to court.Evelyn visited the hospital and ordered Nathan to drop the charges against Owen but he wasn't even the one who had called the cops in the first place. Apparently, the gun had been obtained in an illegal way so he was to be tried for that as well.Evelyn tried to get Doris to convince Nathan but she said she wouldn't involve herself. "If Nathan wants to charge him to court, then let him.""You would watch your own brother go to jail?" Evelyn cried out, terrified at the way her d
"Yes?""I am detective Sam Rogers, and with me is my partner.""James West." They introduced themselves and showed him their badges."How may I help you fine officers?""Mr Thomas Castiel, you are under arrest for the crime of murder on Mr Anakin's late parents.""Are you serious? You are arresting me?""Yes sir. Please sir, I would advise you to come with us quietly to avoid any embarrassment.""Officers, what is going on here?" Evelyn questioned as she walked in.""Nothing ma'am, we would just like to invite your husband for questioning at the station.""Station? Please, what is going on here?""Calm down ma'am, you'll know his offense when he gets to the station.""Do you have any idea what of you're doing? You had the audacity, you had the guts to come into my house….and arrest me?""I'm afraid so. I would also advise you to limit your words sir, because anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law.""Court of law, what the hell are you talking about?""Ju
Nathan stretched his arm to the other side of the bed, only to find out he was alone on the bed. "Doris?" He called, with his eyes still closed. He finally opened his heavy eyes as he sat up and realized he was alone in the whole room. Just as he was about to get worried, he heard the sound of a baby laughing and he got off the bed to investigate.It was another beautiful morning in the home of the Anakin's. The past few weeks had been a little rough for them but that was all behind them now, all they looked forward to was a brighter future ahead with their baby.Doris sat on the couch with Williams in her arms, Williams loved to be tickled and she was ready to make him laugh all day.She tickled at his tummy and he giggled loudly, making Doris laugh as well.They had been thinking on buying a new home and it wasn't just a thought anymore but a project."What are my two favorite people in the world doing?" Nathan asked as he entered the living room."Hey honey, we were just playing.
"Ronnie Anne?" Doris questioned looking startled.Nathan stared at the strange woman who seemed to be following them and Doris noticed he had his eyes on something else or someone else. She turned around but found no one where he stared.Just before Doris turned around, the woman whom Nathan claimed to be Ronnie Anne fled from the scene as a child mistakenly broke a glass, creating the perfect distraction. "Honey why are you staring at that place, what are you looking at?" She exclaimed. "I'm sorry, you'll have to excuse me for one moment." The attendant who stood with them said as she ran towards the scene of the accident. "What were you doing? Where are your parents?""They are over there." The kid pointed, "they left me to grab themselves some alcohol but I wanted a toy, I'm sorry."The woman sighed. "Come with me." She instructed."Poor kid." Doris said as she stared at the little boy with empathy who was almost in tears."Let's go home." Nathan said coldly."What? You're not go
Knowing that he and his secretary once had a romantic history together but that they couldn't be together because he was married, Nathan usually wondered how Tori had felt all those while. He usually wondered if she ever moved on but couldn't bring himself to ask her the question. Hearing that she was getting married was a news that shocked him but also relieved him."You are not saying anything Mr Anakin." Tori said with a big smile still on her face."Oh! Of course, I'm so happy for you." He said. He got off his chair and went to her, giving her a hug, "congratulations Tori.""Thank you Mr Anakin." She smiled, hugging him back. "But sir.""Yeah?" "I need a favor from you." She said as she crossed her arms at her middle. "I think I owe you a lot of favors by now." He said and Tori smiled. "Tell me, I'll do anything for you.""I would like you and your wife, Doris, to join us this Saturday while we have dinner.""You'd like us to join you for dinner?""Yeah, I mean I would like you
"So Chris, walk me through your resume." Nathan said to a young man that sat opposite him."Well, I just graduated from Harvard university with a bachelor's degree in economics and I'm on the search for a job." "That's it?" Nathan asked with an arched brow. "I don't have any working experience but I've always wanted to work here ever since I found out about the existence of your company sir." Chris said, smiling. "Chris, as much as I admire your optimism to work with us, I need a man with at least three years experience in this field.""Mr Anakin, before I can get that three years of experience, I need to start somewhere. Please sir, every interview I've gone for have rejected me because I didn't have five years working experience, I need a job." He pleaded, almost on his knees.One of Nathan's staff had resigned due to personal reasons and Nathan had been working double time to fill in the space. It was too much of work for him so he decided to employ a new staff. Of all the other
He glanced at his watch and frowned. He was late. He picked up the pace, almost running in an attempt to beat time. He had promised his lady that he would be on time and now he was running late.He finally got to the main road and took his place at the bus stop. After waiting for almost two minutes– two extra wasted minutes of his time– a taxi arrived and after a brief negotiation, they were on their way.His phone rang out from his coat pocket and he already knew who would be calling. "I know, I know, this isn't what I planned either. I'm sorry.""You were supposed to be here ten minutes ago!" She complained over the phone."I am really, truly sorry honey. I'll be there in three minutes… five minutes top.""Get here in two minutes!""I'm in a taxi, I'll be there soon." After he hung up, he noticed the cab driver staring at him through the mirror. "Wife's troubles huh?""Yeah.""I can relate. My Mrs is always stressing me out. But there's nothing we can do about it.""Yeah." He repl
"Yes?""I am detective Sam Rogers, and with me is my partner.""James West." They introduced themselves and showed him their badges."How may I help you fine officers?""Mr Thomas Castiel, you are under arrest for the crime of murder on Mr Anakin's late parents.""Are you serious? You are arresting me?""Yes sir. Please sir, I would advise you to come with us quietly to avoid any embarrassment.""Officers, what is going on here?"

Frost grew over the windows even as the duvet kept her warm. Isla watched the ice-crystals grow for a while, allowing her brain to be empty, content to exist and be. The morning would bring the beauty of the ice for sure, that crunch under boot and the bold greeting cold air brings. Yet between now and watching her breaths rise as new white-puffed clouds there will be a very cold night. The kind that only stops at the doors of the well-made houses. The cold weather that seeped through any thin cloth to drain the soul, instead feeds the soul of those well wrapped in warm layers of well insulated fabrics.It was the same type of coldness that reached into one's bones, as if their heart were a door left wide open to the icy wind, slamming only to open again. The only thing to do would be to keep moving, keep heading toward home and the steady warmth of the hearth. There was a lot on her mind that night. And she even tried her best to get Nathan off her mind. She wouldn't just stop thinki
Evelyn met with Regina that day. Not for anything else besides their main discussion. She had purposely visited Regina and had the meeting scheduled at her house. She loved being a wedding guest. It's as if rockets have been lit beneath the soul. There is such love right out in the open. Everyone feels free to let their happy flags fly. Cynics are silent at last. Birdsong becomes the music of the quiet reflections. Souls are united. To have an invitation to such an event is a blessing indeed.She saw the woman from afar, shivering in fear. Fear of what though? Well perhaps it was because the head of the Queens was right at her house! She gave a satisfying grin at the moment and continued with her discussion. "Well, so you see why it is important for us to meet up?" She said, a satisfying smile working its way over to her cheeks. Her face had been plastered with bright heavy makeup. Again. Just on purpose. She ignored Regina's shivering and continued. "So we can discuss the wedding
Nathan is alone, thinking about his life when Doris enters. She tries to confront him, but he just wasn't buying. He was terrified of a whole lot of things. The emotion of our reunion sealed as a perfect photograph in my soul.He had felt so very angry. He'd felt so deeply bloody angry with the universe, with God. Yet that is so unfair. Everything he had struggled for is exactly what he asked to do. He had en route to achieve what he set out to achieve. The pain that was to come with it, the brutal brutal suffering of his soul was necessary. There was no other way to learn what he had learned. The anger is because he want to be with her. He want to be with you so much but he had to keep his own counsel, his own direction with only the influence of the divine ether that came to the artist. Artists would get that. They've felt what he felt. But there must come a time, a day, a moment when he would get to say he'd done what he set out to do. He really hoped so. Because that was when we g
Nathan opened the door for Tori to go in and she smiled at his portrayal of a gentleman."Thank you." "You're welcome."She walked in with a small bag in her hand."Here let me help you.""Oh no it's fine, I got it." She replied smiling."I don't like the idea of inconveniencing you in this way."Tori had insisted on following Nathan home after he dropped her at her place. She claims she couldn't leave him alone and let depression take over him."Mr Anakin, I'd like you to know that I have no secret agenda behind this, I just want to make sure you're okay by all times." Tori explained."Why are you saying that? I know you have no hidden agenda Tori.""Then let me be with you in such a crucial time sir… as a confidant." She said with so much sincerity in her tone.Nathan sighed, "as you wish."Now they were together in the apartment, Tori had insisted on preparing dinner but he plainly refused, he still had his mind on Doris and he wondered what kind of things the abductors would be
The door of the station pushed open and barging into the room was Evelyn with the other important women of Ettavile as her minions.Her heels made loud noises as she strolled confidently into the D.P.O's office."Ma'am you can't go in there." A police officer stopped her."My daughter has been kidnapped and I know who did it so move!" She yelled at him, pushing him away from the entrance.Inside the office was Nathan and Tori who had rushed back to the station after their conversation with Evelyn."I know who the culprit is! Which station is it?" Evelyn yelled at Nathan."Uhm, I can't seem to remember the name… the huh.. the one located just at the end of delmer street.""Be there by the time I get there.""Wait what?"Evelyn hung up the phone then faced her group members."We're going to the police station ladies.""What for?" One of the women asked."To report a little rat."Nathan jumped on his feet and picked up his jacket."What's going on?" Tori asked."We have to go back to the
They had no other option than to meet Doris and her husband. The gang stole Drew from us a piece at a time. Every week they pushed him slightly further until not only did he have no morals, he thought that way of thinking was a desirable freedom. His family, we who truly loved him, became his enemy. He looked at us like we were vile to him. Then one day I found him shaking in his bedroom, crying like the sun had been stolen from the sky, his hands slick with another's blood. That's the last time I ever saw the real Drew, in that moment of remorse. After that he sunk so low into his new m.o. that no-one got close unless they were bringing news of the next gang order.Nobody joins a gang without being a lost soul first. No-one goes to a monster for guidance unless it's their only option. Yet I can't underestimate this gang boy, however young he is. Until the head of any serpent is removed, you ignore the body at your peril. Given his youth he is perhaps more reachable than an older boy
Owen has nothing, he talks to his wife. He called his mother, they agree to beg Nathan and Doris. Incels, if women were robots then you could push their buttons and make them dispense sex in the way a coffee machine gives coffee. They aren't robots, or fem-iods, or foids, but people. Your hatred of women shows up in who you are, thus at an instinctive level, below the conscious brain, women will fear you. This fear is there to protect them from having sex with a man who does not love them. Women are people. Their "sex" is a form of bonding with the one they are in love with, male or female. People also tend to love a person who loves themselves, who is at ease with who they are. So maybe work on yourself? Build empathy instead of entitlement and hate? Personally, I only have sex with a guy when I love him. Not a robot.The "Incel" according to the Oxford Dick-tionary of "we know everything about you assholes who hide behind fake names and avatars," is short for "Incompetent Celibates
