Caleb drove back to school from a night party he attended off campus, speeding past Nancy, Diane and Maria. Catching a glimpse of them from his side mirror, he recognised Nancy, he had a fling with her, twice.

He wondered what she was doing, standing and looking angry. Out of curiosity, he reversed his car, got out and approached her.

"Hey, what's going on?" He asked, grasping Nancy's waist, recognising Diane beside her, but couldn't see Maria's face.

Maria heard a male voice and quickly covered her face with her hair, feeling embarrassed and didn't want to be seen.

Nancy squealed, sounding flirty. "Caleb! It's been so long since I saw you. You just forgot about me. That's not fair!" She pouted her lips.

Caleb smirked, enjoying the attention. "Sorry, Nancy. I've been really busy with school and stuff."

"Oh, busy with your girlfriend, you mean?" She asked, with a raised eyebrow.

"I already told not to worry about her. She's just there for the name, you're still my number one."

    Maria's eyes widened as she heard Diane mention the secret. It's something she had been keeping for years and the only reason she was able to find out about it was because she eavesdropped on her conversation with Matilda. "You better not say anything Diane." Maria said, clenching her teeth. Diane laughed out loud. "Aw, are you scared of how he would look at you when he finds out? Or you're worried he won't trust you again?""Shut up!" Maria yelled, startling everyone. "The secret was a big deal to her and she didn't like how Diane was joking about it.""You shouldn't have taken our money and run. You knew it would take you a lot of months and hard work to pay back, that's why you ran away. You're a thief and a liar, you sly fox." Damson had never seen Maria that angry before and he wondered what secret Diane was talking about. She was breathing heavily, trying to control her anger and he knew this was the wrong time to ask about secrets. He decided to focus on why they were here i

    "What do you mean by that? You also think I'm a failure, poor and miserable? Are you agreeing with everything they said? You don't believe I can pay the money?"Maria signed. "No, I believe you. I'm sorry, that came out wrong, but you're making a big deal out of this." "Caleb isn't someone you'd want to have around you, he's not someone you can trust or share your phone number with. He is a very terrible person." "I think you just have a problem with him. Maria said, shaking her head. "He paid my debt and if not for him, only God knows what Nancy and Diane would have done." "Let me be the judge of his character, if he's someone I can trust or not. He helped me and that's the least I can do so, please let's not argue, let's just forget about what just happened. We still have to go to my new place of work. Let's keep the mood light, please." Maria pleaded. Damson tried his best not to say anything again, he wasn't satisfied with how the conversation ended. Caleb is very cunning and

    The man snarled as he tightened his hands around Maria's neck, he was enjoying the way she gasped and struggled to breathe. "You need to let her go." One of the men said to him. "She's the only one that can tell us where Damson is. "If you kill her we will lose and the boss already told us to make sure we come with his head." The man holding Maria's neck growled angrily. He didn't want to let go of her. The aim was to kill her for not answering his questions. Angrily, he threw her aside, making her crash into a set of mannequins. Maria held her neck, crying and gasping for breath, her body was shaking with fear. She thought she was going to die. "Where is Damson?" She thought to herself, looking around. She was worried because if these men should find him, they'll kill him on the spot. One of the men walked up to Maria, dragging her back to the middle of the room. "You need to answer our questions if you want to leave this place alive." He spoke to her gently but Maria knew it was

    Damson groaned as he struggled to stand up, he was badly bruised. He tried to walk fast to the door to check for the car's plate number, but it was too late, they were already gone. He hit his fist on the wall in anger. He didn't get to catch the men who attacked him. Maria approached him carefully. She could see he was angry and didn't want to cause him more annoyance. "Are you okay?" She asked, trying to look at his face Damson gritted his teeth, ignored her and avoided eye contact. He didn't want to snap at her because he wasn't in the mood for questions. He was so mad at himself for not catching at least one of the men. He looked around for signs of Luis but he didn't see him. "You should go to a pharmacy and treat yourself. You have a cut on your lip." He said to Maria before he dragged himself out of the fashion store. "Where do you think you're going?" She asked, blocking his path. "You also need to go to the hospital, your face looks terrible." "I want to be alone for now

    "Mum, who was that?" Sasha asked as looked up from her food. A part of her knew who it was already. "It was Damson. He came just like you said, I think he had something to talk to you about. He said it was important. Are you going to continue pushing him away? I've been hearing your phone ring a lot these past few weeks. I can't keep lying for you." "You can't continue to stay at home. You'd end up seeing him one way or the other. Now that everything has been solved and you don't have to marry that old man, you're free. Why are you still sad and avoiding your friends?""Let's not even talk about the way you've been dragging your feet around and staring at your phone. It's obvious you want to reach out to him. Stop fighting it." "Mum, you can't understand." Sasha said, sniffing. "I said really hurtful things to him and I'm scared of what he might say when we see, I just can't bring myself to face him. I shouldn't have said all those harsh words. I made a very big mistake." "It's fi

    Damson sat in shock as he stared at his phone. A picture of Sasha tied to a chair, unconscious, stared back at him. "If you cooperate with us, she'd live" was bodly written under it. He read the message over and over again. He stood up immediately and rushed out of the hospital, quickly calling Luis to meet him at the Mansion. He was very disturbed. "Who are the people behind this? When was she kidnapped? Is this the work of Mr Baron or the men that attacked him at the fashion store?" He had so many unanswered questions. "Sasha has been kidnapped." Damson said to Luis as he walked into his father's study. "You were right, the men lurking around were up to no good." "They sent me a message and I have no idea what they're talking about. Why are they asking me to cooperate with them? Who are they? We need to find out who these people are and save Sasha." "I'm afraid that would be impossible, young master. We don't know exactly where these people are located and this obviously looks

    "They have to help. If they don't Sasha would be in more danger and I can't let that happen. This can't be happening. Who do they think they are to not help?" Damson thought to himself, glaring at the men on the TV. "You have to help. It is an order from me. I am the boss and you listen to my instructions." He snarled, clenching his fist. "You can't deny me. I am your boss!" "You're not our boss!" The third in command yelled. Let me see the tattoo that shows you're one of us. The men both dragged their shirts down, a Raven with its wings spread out was drawn on their pale skin. Damson looked at Luis, who also dragged his shirt down to reveal his tattoo. Damson was surprised, he didn't know Luis was also fully involved in the Underworld. "You're not one of us, kid and at this point we doubt you'll ever be one of us. You have no right to order us around. You haven't even done the three months training and initiation to prove you can be one of us. You are nothing but an ordinary pers

    "Damson?" Sasha whispered as she opened her eyes, just in time to see a figure slip out of the room. She sat up suddenly, looking around and trying to figure out where she was. Damson told Luis at the door Sasha was already awake and should explain to her as calmly as possible why she was in the hotel. Sasha looked around in fear. She was no longer tied to a chair, her wrists had red marks where the rope was. She rubbed it as she thought to herself. "Did her kidnappers bring her here? What are they trying to do to her? What has she done wrong?" "Is Mr Baron angry about the failed marriage? Is he trying to take me somewhere far away so he can force me to get married to him?" She cried out in fear. Luis knocked and entered into the room, making Sasha run to the edge of the bed. "Stay away from me. She yelled. I'm not interested in marrying him. Go back to Mr Baron and tell him I'd rather kill myself than get married to him." Luis moved closer trying to explain to her but Sasha sc

    “I worked all my life for your father,” Luis began, his voice filled with bitterness. “Tirelessly helped him build Stellarcorp from the ground up. And when the company became big, he still used me like a fool.”“I didn’t mind at first,” he continued. “I treated Stellarcorp like it was mine too. Gave it everything. But then, out of nowhere, he decides to look for his long-lost son, to give you the company.”Luis scoffed.“He didn’t even ask me what I thought. Didn’t care. Just ordered me to find you and hand it all over. To make it worse, he told me to watch over you while you ran the company. Can you imagine that? Me, the man who brought Stellarcorp to fame, reduced to your babysitter.”“The company should have been mine, not yours. Your father’s lucky he died when he did, helping you escape. It was supposed to be you six feet under, not him. But you were just lucky that day. My men did a sloppy job.”Suddenly, a voice rang out.“Enough of your talk, just kill this bastard already!”

    “Am I in a moving car? I’m definitely in one.” Damson thought to himself as he opened his eyes groggily. He tried to sit up and realized he was in the trunk of a car. He banged on it several times, trying to get it open, but it wouldn’t budge. He began to sweat, helpless and disoriented, forced to wait until someone decided to open it.“Who did this to me? What happened?”“Why can’t I remember being put in the trunk?” Is Maria okay? Was she also shoved into another car?”So many questions ran through Damson’s head. He was confused. His head felt heavy, too big to carry.He eventually laid back down and decided to wait until the car stopped. After about twenty minutes of pure torture, the car finally came to a halt. Damson let out a small sigh of relief. He heard muffled voices outside, and then suddenly, the trunk flung open.He blinked against the light and tried to sit up, but his body failed him. He couldn’t move. No matter how hard he tried, only his head responded. “What the he

    Damson couldn’t leave the Wilsons just like that after finding out what Mr. Wilson had done for him. The man saved his life, and the least Damson could do was help the family with the funeral preparations. He paid for all the expenses and also gave them a large sum of money to sustain them for a long time. He even advised Logan to invest wisely.He had wanted to stay longer, but Logan asked him not to. His mother and sister would only feel more pain with him around. His presence would be a constant reminder of what happened to their father, and they didn’t need that. Damson understood and didn’t push further so he left.At first, he decided to head to his apartment, but then he changed his mind and went to the dorm instead. He hadn’t been there in a while, and he wanted to see his friends, Luke and Fred. They had reached out to him several times, asking where he was and why he hadn’t been around. At the time, he couldn’t tell them he was married, so he just told them he had gone job

    Maria sat in the car, fiddling with her fingers, random thoughts flying through her mind as she stared out the window. Kate was seated beside her, and two other men were in the car with them.She didn’t fully understand what she was doing or what she had just agreed to but one thing was clear, she couldn’t die because of someone else.Damson would do the same, right? Maria wondered, now biting her nails.He’d choose survival too, even if it meant putting me in danger… right? Anyone would… right? She was disturbed.“But Damson betrayed me too. He treated me like a fool, lied to me, and deceived me. I thought that we were close, that our bond was real.”“Had he been acting all along?”“How is he even the president of StellarCorp? When did that happen?”“He was the poorest student in school. So how? It doesn’t make sense.” Maria’s thoughts raced, growing angrier by the second.“I could’ve gotten more opportunities. I could’ve had a good job in his company. I was close to him! But he de

    “What! No, no, please don’t kill me. Please don’t,” Maria cried, scared for her life. Today has been a rollercoaster of emotions. She was scared, disturbed, and deeply worried and she couldn’t help but be angry at Damson for dragging her into his mess.She was in this situation because of him.“Caleb and the boss want Damson dead, and now, because of him, I’m going to die too.” She thought to herself. “Where’s Kate?” the boss asked, ignoring Maria’s cries.“Since the last time she almost got caught by Damson, Kate had been lying low.” One of the men replied. “Tell her to come here right now. She has someone to get rid of.”“Is that really the next thing you’re supposed to do? I don’t care what you do with Maria, but can it wait till we finish off Damson? Why are you wasting time killing people you’re not supposed to!?” Caleb asked the boss, frustrated.“It’s your fault this is happening!” the boss snapped. “I told you nobody was supposed to know that Damson is the president of Stel

    Caleb ran his hand through his hair angrily. His body trembled, and all he wanted to do was find Damson and end his life. He wasn’t interested in whatever plan the boss had to offer. He just wanted to carry out his own.His life had taken a dip after his father lost his company and couldn’t get help from anyone. He had called all his father’s friends and visited different companies for assistance, but everyone gave him the same answer, they couldn’t help. He was devastated. His father became ill, and they had to sell their cars and properties just to afford treatment.Caleb was left with nothing. He was broke and had to struggle to get by every day. Because of that, he hardly showed up at school. Everyone had known him as one of the richest boys in the university, but now, everything was gone. He had nothing.To avoid questions and rumors, he stayed away from school and wandered around. He spent most of his days at clubs, stealing from people and drinking. It was during one of those

    Maria blinked hard, hoping she was seeing the wrong person but she wasn’t. She didn’t want to believe who stood in front of her.“Long time no see, Maria,” Caleb said, smiling sheepishly. “Did you miss me?”“Caleb… what…what is going on? Why are you here? Why am I here? Who are these people?” Maria stuttered, struggling to pull herself together. She didn’t want to believe Caleb had anything to do with her being kidnapped.“I asked you a question, but you’re throwing more at me in return.” Caleb said, his smile fading. “Courtesy demands you greet someone when you’re seeing them for the first time in a long while. Or have I become just ‘anyone’ to you now? Have you forgotten me so easily, huh? I made you a university student and suddenly you’ve grown proud?”“Cut it out, Caleb, and answer me!” Maria snapped, cutting him off. “What the hell am I doing here!? If this is one of your silly pranks, you better stop it now. I don’t have time for this! I’m not interested in whatever this is, s

    Maria paced back and forth, staring at her phone. She had spent the last few days thinking about the argument she had with Damson. She hadn’t tried to reach out to him since they last spoke, and he hadn’t reached out to her either. She was angry about that, but she had more to think about than just her anger.Damson and Viktor had acted really suspicious on the day she last spoke to Damson, and she was dying to know what was going on. “What emergency could Viktor have been talking about that made Damson react that way? What exactly went wrong?” she wondered to herself.She had had her suspicions about Damson before that day, but the way he acted even when he was injured made her realize something was definitely going on.She decided to find out for herself, so she packed her bags and left for Damson’s apartment. She wanted answers. She needed to know what was going on — and most importantly, the truth about his relationship with Luis, who represented Stellarcorp at the charity organi

    "Leo was the reason why my father had a stroke and had to be using a wheelchair. These past few months before you came have been brutal. Leo came with his friends to raid our house. It was just very sad that I was out clubbing on that very day. I should have been around to teach that bastard a very big lesson he would never forget." Logan said angrily. "I've been looking everywhere for Leo but I just can't find him." Damson replied. "If not that I have more pressing issues at hand, I'd do everything I can to fish him out from his hiding place." "I don't think you can find him just like that. Also, I think Leo also has something to do with the strange men my dad has been seeing. I don't know if it's true but that's what I just think.""That's the only reason why my dad would still be in contact with him after everything he had done. I can't even start mentioning everything that the bastard has done to our family and to be honest, I just want him dead!" "Can we just put Leo aside fo
