The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Dealt with
The two hefty men paid no attention to Thomas, they continued to drag him along the floor until they got to a corner in the alley before they forcefully hurled him to the wall and stood next to him as his two sides. The impact made him grunt in pain as soon as he landed on the rough wall. He shut his eyes in pain and extended his right hand to his back to rub off the intense pain. “Who are you? What do you want? I don’t have anything, I am just a taxi driver.” Thomas said with a whimper still trying to ease the pain with his hands but the two hefty men on black suits beside him said nothing, it was as though they were programmed not to speak. Thomas panted in pain, then he relaxed himself with his legs stretching out to enable him balance, he dared not run for the sight of the two hefty men alone was enough to send cold shivers down his spine. “Please! Just let me go. I swear I won’t come to this place again. Don’t harm me I beg you.” Thomas pleaded the men who refused to budg
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Royal Castle
It took less than ten minutes for them to get to their location, there standing elegantly tall in the middle of night with an outstanding glitter that made it the center of attraction was the Royal Castle Hotel. It was the best hotel in the whole of Granada Hills, and only people of high profile like politicians and celebrities could be able to afford the luxury of the hotel. The car parked at the parking space of the hotel and as he looked at the tall structure before him, Jason marveled at the alluring sight of the hotel. It was built like a modern castle, the roofing was mounted on the building like a pinnacle, and the building itself seemed to be carved by the finest of artists. The ambience of the hotel was exquisite, sending sparkles of proficiency and wonder to anyone who dared to even take a peep at it. The gardens surrounding the hotel had all sorts of light around them and the statues also were outstanding, giving the euphoria of both and new architecture. Jason was

“What? That’s more than twice my salary!” The guard standing close was shocked at the amount the Male Receptionist mentioned, he left his mouth wide open and turned towards Jason, expecting him to have an expected reaction. “Yeah! So you see exactly why I asked him if he was thought this place was an amusement park or the street. He clearly doesn’t know where he is.” Mira said allowed rolling her eyes at Jason. “I will take it.” Jason said without blinking, his countenance was laced with an intense confidence that shocked everyone around. “Sir, I am not sure you understand, I said that the room costs two hundred thousand dollars per night and we wouldn’t even be able to offer it to you if you are not a VVIP in this place. If you don’t mind, I could recommend a cheaper room for you.” “Francis, don’t even bother, I am sure he wouldn’t even be able to afford to pay ten thousand dollars for the most affordable room we have here. Can’t you see the way he looks, like a beggar.” Mir
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. The Black Card
Mira was angry that the poor fellow was trying to turn the whole thing into a show but who didn’t want to see him humiliated? She figured that he was biting more than he could chew and definitely wanted to make sure he was dealt with. “If you do not pay for the room as you have said, you will work for me as my cleaner at home for free for a month.” “And if I do?” Jason asked with full confidence. “That’s not even possible, I am sure of that.” Mira scoffed and looked at Jason again. The feeling of confidence crept into her and she was also sure to deal with him for being such a stubborn fellow. “What if I do? What becomes of you?” “I see you still find this funny, if you do then I would come work for you as your cleaner for a month.” “Mira!” Francis said aloud trying to call his colleague to order. Something inside of him told him that there could be more to the man’s shabby appearance and he believed his instincts. “Don’t worry, I am certain that by the time all these is
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Declined
The Assistant manger turned towards Jason and observed him carefully from his hair down to his rickety sandals. He scoffed and frowned for a few seconds, then he smiled along to the thoughts that ran through his mind. “This would be a perfect opportunity to get myself into the good book of the Walkers. Who knows, I could be considered for the position of the next Manager by the time Mr. Garry retires.” He thought to himself with a one sided smile. Again he looked at Jason without saying a word for a few seconds. His eyes got stuck when they gazed upon the black card that was resting casually in Jason’s hand. He had never seen one before, only heard about it, and just like everyone else he didn’t think that Jason was going to be able to be the rightful owner of the black card. “Young man who are you?” Leonard asked with an imperative tune as soon as the laughter disappeared from his face. “Does that really matter? Do I have to be interrogated before I can be given a room in thi
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Dominance!
“I knew it! You owe me your salary for this week.” Norah said victoriously with a smile on her face. She was not only happy that she had won her bet, she was also happy that the shabby looking fellow who came to disturb the peace of the hotel would be dealt with accordingly. The silence which lasted for almost a minute was overshadowed by the voices of the observes who mumbled inaudible words. Some laughed and jeered at Jason, which some others cured at him for being a thief and trying to use another person’s debit card claiming that it was his. “Oh the delight I would have from battering you out of this place.” Said the guard as he made a move to raise his baton against Jason but Leonard raised his hand to signal him to a stop. “Before you do that, I would have to take the precious card from him before it is ruined in the process.” Leotard said with a smile showing that his plans were falling in place. “I told you this fool was a fraud didn’t I?” The words spoken by Mira rea
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Payback
The man seemed really afraid of the shabby looking man in front of him as he continued to plead without raising his face. This went cold shivers into the nerves of all those who had made bets with him. “That’s Me Garry! The Manager of this Hotel. Is he really on the floor or are my eyes deceiving me?” Said an onlooker from a distance. The old lady who has made her move to leave the scene out of annoyance was frozen and this effect was not only for her, it was distributed to everyone in the room, the stillness, the rising tension and the pounding heartbeats amidst open mouths were truly remarkable. “Who could that be? That young man definitely is someone of high dignity for Mr Garry to prostrate before him.” “More like a god! Norah.” Hilda said to Norah as they watched with their mouth agape. The stillness didn’t stop Leonard’s heart from pounding against his chest, he took three steps backward as though he was preparing to take off gulping in saliva. No matter how he tried t

The lady remained silent for a while unable to say her name. The fear on her face was glaring as her hands continued to shake. “Didn’t you hear him? Speak up now or have your body whipped!” Gary said angrily raising his right hand as though he was about to hit her. “Hilda! Hilda, my name is Hilda!” She said with a panic holding on to her chest and bending her head with her eyes closed from the moment she saw the huge hand rise above her. She gradually opened them when she waited for a few seconds and no hand touched her. At that point, she had already let out a shrilling cry. “Hilda? That’s a nice name.” Jason said with a smile, then he turned towards the dog who has been quiet for a while. “You have a cute dog Hilda.” “Thank you sir. His name is Milo.” She said unable to raise her face to look at the man who had a strangely calm attitude that was accompanied with a constant smile that refused to leave his face. “We had a deal Hilda and I love to obey every rule I come ac
