Nicholas TownhouseHe slammed the door behind, sealed the locks and sank on the first thing he could lay his buttocks on, a short stool. His heart was beating fast, so fast he could hardly put his breath under his control. He looked at the door awaiting someone to knock but no one came knocking, he might have missed him or either his chaser has left him to keep on running.Knock! Knock! Knock!Not long, he hard the hard knock on the door. He was petrified with fear, so much fear his lives flashed before his eyes and suddenly, his whole body felt paralyzed. Unable to move not even the smallest vein and muscle in his body, he just sat on the stool breathing and sweating profusely like a sprinter that went on a marathon.Knock! Knock! Knock!Came the knocks again and this time came the elderly tone of Nicholas along Sarah. His fear suddenly depleted on hearing that and he jolted on his feet immediately running to unlock the door. With the door unlocked, Nicholas and Sarah walked in distu
It was a splendid morning as the streets were already occupied and roaming with pedestrians and vehicles. A yellow taxi zoomed in sight and stopped almost immediately before a very tall skyscraper, the tall building was fenced by metal wired walls which would prevent intruders from jumping in or out because they would either die of electrocution or instead wouldn't jump. There was also a metal gate at the entrance of the building guarded by four security men dressed in what seems like cops outfits and are heavily armed with rifles and shot guns. Observing the vicinity from the taxi, they realized the vicinity of the Fortune Construction Company is also guarded by CCTV cameras. Thus, this gave the company a very high level of security even Strangler had no other choice than to reverberate his thoughts.Strangler sat at the back seat, he was dressed in a black leather jacket, white top underneath, black trouser and white boots. He also wore a black shade over his face shrouding his e
"C'mon Laura, is that how to greet or welcome your lovely family?" Simon asked carrying Damian on his shoulders "Let bygones be bygones, we aren't against each other. Why the hardness?" He added "Chilax sis." He added playfully snarling his nose on Damian's nose.Laura remained calm as she sat on her comfy chair, she watched as her family made their ways towards each sofas and have their seats. She waited for them to go on with why their came into her office but no one said anything except Simon who was busy playing with Damian. So, Laura decided to break the silence instead."Why are you all here?" She asked and they looked up to her but that never stopped her from asking the same question again "Why are you all here? I thought we had a deal of you not showing up ever in my family affairs." She added and this made Simon angry but he slowly controlled himself.Mrs. Ayo consoled her "We are only fighting for what's great for you, we are not stupid greedy family, we are one of a kind."
You're not escaping me today Mathew, not today." Strangler said with a gothic tone it simulated a whisper.As they ran deep, Daniel heard the incoming footsteps and Mathew could hear them either. This made them bring out their pistols as they ran aiming behind as they made their moves.They continue running until they got a sudden stop before a miniature water way thanks to a wide pipe that ran through the underground. There were two paths that led into the underground and it's left for them to know where they're actually going. Luckily, Daniel took to the right since its where the waters were piped from. Mathew tagged along but before they could know, shot guns sounded.Shot! Shot! Shot! Cling! Clung! Clang!Guns were heard fired and bullets were heard bouncing off the metal pipes, Mathew was lucky to his himself immediately he took a rapid turn to his right behind Daniel. The sound of the gun fire woke Damian but Daniel seems go have him under control. They kept running and gun fi
In the urbanized city of East Alley, a beautiful city in New York. it was evening already, and the cool wind blew to and fro, into the wide streets of the city and into East Alley. The sun was blazing hot and the clouds were lit and made way for the radiating energy of the sun unto the city.In one of the most beautiful mansion in East Alley, a group of family were preparing to have their dinner already as they were just returning from the evening program hosted by them for the benefit of their company. In the dining room, a man which might be in his late 50's was sitting on one of the chairs surrounding the dining table. He had white hairs on his round head, a reading glass on his eyes that he used in reading his newly bought newspapers, and he was dressed in black suits. A woman suddenly rushed out of the kitchen room with a big plate filled with fried turkeys on her hands as she quickly dropped the plate on the table before she rushed into the kitchen again to get the rest stuffs.
Outside the mansion, Daniel was sitted in the yard decorated with lots and lots of ornaments. He sat on the long chair placed In the middle of the yard, and his eyes were fixed unto the moon. With the look on his face, you could tell that he was feeling so ashamed of himself, or was he? His life was gradually turning into hell, and the more he tries to bare the pains and humiliation, the more it came too him.Daniel was just a delivery boy in Midtown-High, when he met Laura, and the two fell In love. He managed to save up a lot of cash for them to get married, but Laura insisted she handled everything, knowing that he was just earning a little. The both got married on 18th of April 2022 and they moved into their family house, and since that day up to this moment, all Daniel gets from his inlaws were nothing but humiliation and insults. When he first came, they treated him like family, but after some time, they began to show their true colors and now, he wished he never came into their
After a long rainy night, it was morning already, and the early morning crows of the cock was already loud and clear. The East Alley's morning sun has arose and was now bestowing her love upon the the city and its urbanized components.The sun radiated into the room where Daniel and Laura slept last night, their bedroom to be precised. And due to its morning intensity, together with the power of the sound coming from the cock's crow, Daniel opened his eyes, and found out that it was morning already. He gently sat on his butt and took the hands of Laura away from his lap. He smiled and swallowed in joy the moment he saw her. She was as beautiful as the sun itself. Her cute face and her lips made him feel blessed, but anytime he remembered that he was just a broke man married to a rich woman, he felt really bad, like he didn't deserve her and truly, he doesn't. Based on what and how he felt for her, he didn't want her to suffer any way and so he needed to get rich as soon as possible bu
In the open and wide street, Daniel zoomed out of nowhere and raced forward as he held the breifcase tightly in his arms and placed it on his chest to avoid the weight from slowing him down. Racing heavily after him, were a group of men, dressed in black overalls and dark glasses covering their evil eyes. They were obviously thugs sent to harm him, but he won't give them the chance too. Daniel instantly swerved into another lane and almost got himself killed by an incoming car, but he was fast enough to see it coming, hereby avoiding it and quickly jumping out of the way. He was now breathing heavily, and when he turned around, he saw the men were fast approaching and he sighed. Who were they? What has be done wrong to deserve this kind of death chase? He was sure that someone close was behind all this and he knew exactly who it was.Without another thought, Daniel took too his heels again, this time, he was a little bit slower than before, and he soon noticed the dizziness that was
