~ ~ Ryan's pov ~ ~I kept mute, my thoughts everywhere."And I think they are after me too. I am their next victim" Gregory said in a voice barely above a whisper"Why would you say something like that?" I inquired knowing very well why "You know, it's just all so complicated. Everything happening quickly" Gregory lamented "It was just like yesterday when he came to me and now, he's gone. The people who took the body, they know what I was trying to do and they will come for me" Gregory continued "You have to stay strong and fight to the end" I was trying to encourage him and push him from such negative thoughts "I am scared and know I don't have very long now. However, I need a favor from you" "No, I am way past beyond doing favors for people now. I can't especially in these dangerous times" I dismissed, I could not get involved in this "I do not want to be involved in any of the family's mess, please," I said with emphasis "How did you know it had to do with the Bruce family?"

~ Alina's POV ~ ~I had gotten home late and tired. God, what was happening? Days now and nothing, not a single clue! It was like this had been planned so well that not a track was left to follow. I went to the kitchen expecting that Ryan had prepared my favorite but nothing was there too. "My lazy husband" I bemoaned. What was I expecting anyways?"Ryan?" I called out and no reply. Was he asleep already? But, he wasn't the type to go to sleep early. Perhaps, he was exhausted. I had gone to the room and doesn't find him there, didn't he ask earlier if he could move in? My silence should have told him that it meant yes. How could he not understand that? I dragged my legs to the guest room and contemplated if to knock or just barge in. "Ryan, you can come back to the room now" I yelled loudly so he could hear me "Did you get that?" I added and there was silence. I was too tired for all of this. What kind of sleep was he possibly having? "Ryan?" I called out again and when he

Eleanor's POVEleanor woke up to the blinding sunlight and yawned lazily. Thanks to the grace of a beautiful weekend, she felt she had been resting for a thousand years, and that she was now fit enough to take on the new working week. She got up from the bed lazily, but then felt like her tummy almost pinned her back to the bed; probably warning her to get up from bed the proper way. She stared at the bump on her belly and sighed for a while. A slight smile crept up her lips as she placed her hands on her belly, caressing her tummy. How she kept going on, she couldn't explain, but she knew his child in her is one of the driving forces that kept making her strive and work hard-hard to secure a better life for her and her child or so she imagined. Every morning, she woke up pretending she was pregnant, her love for babies became an obsession, one she wouldn't let go of soon but she wouldn't dare have a child. She placed her feet into the rubber bathroom slippers she was accustomed t

Eleanor's POV"Yes?" I said over the phone "Who is this?" I asked "It's Alina, Ryan's wife" "Oh, Alina, hi" "Hi" She replied, she was quiet"Is there a problem?" I asked "Yes and we need your help" "What is it?" "Ryan was arrested. I am guessing you have not seen the news yet" she explained "No, what did I miss?""Ryan is being arrested for murder" "Murder? Why? Or how rather?" I inquired "I do not know the details yet" she answered "What is the good saying?" "They wouldn't let me see him" she lamented "Why not?" "Cos he is a suspected murderer?" "That's bullshit. Look, do not worry. Just sit there give me a few minutes and I will be there as soon as I can" "Thank you" "Do not thank me yet, send me your location" I said "Will do" ****"Grandpa, that son of yours needs your help," I said to grandpa "Why? What did he do this time? I thought he didn't need my help?" "Come on grandpa, don't be kike him. He does need our help now" I begged "Let me hear it" he finally

Alina's pov I sat down patiently and waited. Time and time again, the receptionist would glance at my side, as if to tell me to leave."Ma'am, I would advise you to go home and wait for your husband. You cannot save him" he had said to me, as I care for any of what he thought. "I am not leaving here without my husband" "Poor thing, you would be waiting a long time. Your husband should have thought about it carefully before killing someone" he added "He didn't do" I almost screamed to his face"You have so much faith in your husband. Makes me wonder if you guys work together. Perhaps, we should interrogate you too" he had warned "You wouldn't dare" I retorted "Watch me do it" he had answered "Son of a bitch" I cursed inwardly. From where I sat, I was muttering silent prayers for Ryan and hoping Eleanor would serve soon. "There you are," I said quickly standing up when I sighted Eleanor walk in with her grandpa "Welcome air" I greeted him "Where is she?" He had asked"The rec

Sasha's POVI got a call from Faithy Bruce, must be about the Reannd case. "Have you heard?" She asked "Yes, I did" I answered "Am I missing something?" She asked "Why would you think that?" "I just have this very odd feeling" "Don't worry about it, perhaps you worry too much for Alina" I let out"No, I..." She started but I stopped her halfway "I know, you don't need to pretend or hide from me, I promise" I replied, smiling "Yes. Anyways, I guess we should be happy about this" she noted "Of course, this will keep her from thinking too much about Javier's death and sorry more about her husband" "I feel scared" she relayed her fears to me "You don't need to be, Gregory us dead too" "That is not my fear" "What is it then?" I inquired, curious to know "I fear that she might end up falling in life with Reannd and not want to have Alex" "Oh, you worry too much. We always have an alternative, don't we?" I asked "How?" "You will know soon""I can't know now?" She asked "Not
The Son-in-law they never wanted A murderer
Ryan's POV"I need to speak to someone" I demanded coldly."You are a murderer, a heartless one at that to remain at the crime scene. And you dare to ask to speak to someone?" One of the officers had replied "Yes, I still have my rights" "I'll tell you what, you have no rights whatsoever in here" "Let's hope that you won't regret this" I warned "Believe me, I won't. We are helping you by keeping you here. A lot of people out there want you dead. You see, what you might not know is that you just killed a very important man" the officer explained "I did not kill anyone. Even if I did, I am not stupid to remain there" I objected "Except of course if you wanted for it to look like this like you are not stupid to remain there" the officer added nodding his head "Oh God, you believe that?" I asked "Of course I do, we will await the autopsy reports" he answered "Can you not even try to look for other suspects? Or other persons that were at the location at the same time?" I asked "Y
The Son-in-law they never wanted Years ago
****Mrs. Bruce's POV55 years ago, a little girl watched her mom struggle to get on from day to day. Her father died when she was just one, leaving her mother with two kids to raise. Whatever she did, people never saw the hood, no one wanted to marry a “half-woman” as they called single mothers then. Securing even a place to stay was as tiring as birthing a child. “Ma’am, we can’t let a single woman with no husband and two kids stay here. It can bring a lot of trouble, what happened to your husband?” They thought she was one of those loose women out there. Her mother breathed pain, lived in misery, and died unhappily. Even though the world has gotten better than it was then, single mothers are still stigmatized daily. Her daughter doesn’t tell her but she knows, she sees it in her eyes; carrying a bump around with no man to show.

**** "I don't understand you" I continued when we entered the car "if I'm to be treated like a queen, why are you driving when we have an entire entourage behind us?" I asked "Because I'm treating you like a queen, durh" "I'll think of you as my driver then" I smiled satisfactorily. "I have a very juicy news" he licked his lips. "I can see it's really juicy for you to lick your lips, did you taste the juice?" He glared at me and concentrated on driving. Knowing him, I knew he would continue talking. "My three year old girl is dying to see you. She even decorated her bedroom and expects you to share the room with her" he said admiringly. "I knew she would always be smart, smarter than her father who paid an entire entourage to accompany us home" "It's was her idea, so that means I'm smarter" he bit his cheeks to surpress himself from laughing. "Wow that's so smart of her, she deserves a medal." I replied wiping the smile off his face. "Hmph.." he

Five years later, Courtney I stood at the arrival terminal in the airport, looking for my ride home. I had travelled to Europe for college with the help of Div and Donald and graduated with an upper class in law. I specifically chose to major in law so I can lend my voice to those that are voiceless. I saw a flag raised up with the name CounterKnee. I shook my head and walked to the person who was busy chatting away on his phone with a big smile on his face. I smacked him on the arm "Didn't I tell you not to call me CounterKnee?" I playfully glared at him. "What do you expect me to do when I miss you so much?" He grinned at me "Should I blush now or what?" "None, a hug will do" I hugged him tight "it's been five years" "I know right, it feels like yesterday and it also feels like ages ago" We disengaged from the hug and he collected my luggages from me, leading me to sleek car and I noticed an entourage. "Please don't tell me you hired

Donald "I knew something was up with that Uncle of yours. I never liked him." Mum said after I narrated everything to her. "I still can't believe he tried to kill me and Courtney." "I haven't told your father about it. You mentioned Div just now?" "Yeah, he's the one that helped" "That's new, the Div I heard about is cruel and he's a Drug Lord." Mum explained. "A drug Lord? Courtney got herself involved with a drug Lord? Is that why the police man saluted to him" "Maybe..... I'll head over to the police station. They should wrap up the case, we aren't making any charges. He's dead, we don't need to mention his case in court." I shrugged and eyed mother who was staring at me with mischief. I went over and hugged her tightly. "About Courtney" mum started. "Don't even go there mum..... don't" I disengaged from the hug and flashed her a grin then went to the kitchen where I met Flynn and Eva cooking. It was a sight to behold. "We're sorry,

"What contract you signed with mother ends today, I'll give you the money" My heart plummeted down, I wanted the money for college so I can't rent an apartment till I apply. "I want to work for my money" I argued "No, you've worked enough. I'm going to sponsor you to college and you can always consider this place as home" I wanted to raise my head and look at him. He pressed my head back against his chest "No don't look at me" "Thank you" I said with so much sincerity. "You deserve it CounterKnee" " Sorry to break you guys up, but what the heck happened?" Another voice said "Mum" Donald cried out, not masking the surprise in his voice. His mum?!

*** He stared at me as if he couldn't believe what he was wearing and pulled me into a hug. I let myself be hugged and relax in his embrace. It's finally over, we conquered our nightmares. "Know the first thought that crossed my mind when I saw you?" He asked, his chin resting on my head. I shook my head negatively against his chest. "Who's this fierce beautiful petite lady with wild chestnut hair who isn't afraid of my cold aura and broke through, now I have a warm heart willing to love." "What do you think when you see now, after you know, everything?" I asked "Wow, my bossy maid is one hell of a strong woman, beautiful and fierce at the same time, selfless too. She's one of the people I hold dear to my heart now." I blushed, surprised someone still thinks of me as beautiful. "What contract you signed with mother ends today, I'll give you the money"

ourtney ️ I watched helplessly as the policemen took Div away. "I'll be okay and probably be back in the night" he said as they took him away but that didn't alleviate my worry. Killing Simon was self defense, the police should know that. Seeing I wasn't convinced "what about bringing your flowers this night?" I smiled and nodded in agreement. After he left with the police, an ambulance came to carry Simon's corpses and I was asked to vacate the room without cleaning as they need evidence. I packed my belongings and moved them to Donald's room. I sat on his bed, reminiscing. Simon is really dead, my nightmare is gone. It still felt surreal. Donald entered and sat quietly beside me. "I'm so sorry Nora, I'm sorry I didn't believe you" he pleaded. I looked at him and placed my hands on his, "If I were you, I wouldn't have believed a stranger over my blood too so I'm not angry."

Shocks
Donald I entered the room and stood in shock as I watched Uncle fall slowly to the ground with a strange man holding a gun. I glanced at Nora, she was holding a gun too. Where did she get the gun? "Who the fuck are you?" I wanted to ask but the words died down in my mouth when I saw her run to the strange man. For a moment, my heart surged with gratitude towards the strange man. He save Nora. I didn't mind that Uncle is dead, after all he had been planning to kill me too. "Who are you?" I wanted to ask again but the police men interrupted this time. They looked at the gun in the strange man's hand and Simon's corpse. "You are under arrest sire" The police man saluted before talking which only made me more curious. Who exactly is this man standing here??

*** After I killed him, she ran over and hugged me, surprising me completely. My sister was the only person that could hug me, here, another person is taking her place. I hugged her back not caring about the person behind me who should be the owner of the house. Hugging another person after a long while felt good and refreshing so I held on to her, not worried about the blood seeping into my clothes. "B-bo-boss" Jeff stammered. "Just kneel and raise your hands up till I come back and clean the mess here" "W-where are you going?" "Police station." Just as I said it, a batch of policemen entered fully armed and took in the state of the room including the kneeling Jeff.

Do or die
DIV While I asked Jeff to stay guard of the house, I also stationed two more people. When I got report that Simon was heading to her room and destroying things in his bedroom, I knew he was going to do something other than having sex with her this night. So I got into my car and drove as fast as I could. I told her I won't let his blood stain her hands and I'm a man of my words. I'm not going to let her go to jail because of him. I couldn't protect my sister then and she's going to be angry if I don't help Nora. I entered in time to see him choking her and her pulling the gun I gave her out. I stood, watching the entire exchange, waiting for the right time to make a move. When he pointed the gun at her, I pulled my gun out and was about shooting. Then she threw the lamp at his hand, aiming perfectly. She picked the gun quickly and made to aim. I took action then and killed him. From my research, the Simon of a man has about twenty more people in ca
