The morning sun woke up Anahita in her slumber and she sat up to see Javad still on the alert. She was surprised at him and she coughed to attract his attention. The Mafia Don turns around to stare at her. " Good morning Boss," She said but Javad didn't reply. He only come closer and reached out gently to pull out the leaf in her hair. " I went out a while ago to see. We are way out of Old City but if we can get a ride then good " " I doubt it " " One can only hope. Come on " Javad stood up with Anahita. Both of them were shot just recently. " Here, your jacket " " Put it on. You will be cold in that dress you wore " In no time they set out, walking for some minutes in the wood before walking out to the long, deserted highway. " Why do I get the bumps? Everywhere is just so eerily silent " Anahita mutters but Javad pulled her by the arm and urges her to start walking. " Come on, it's fine " They walk now for about thirty minutes in silence, trying to get a ride or anything
Javad de Venta is finally finding it hard to breathe when he is closed to the de Venta's plaza. He clutched his side stomach and managed to walk without alarming anyone. Anahita was beside him, giving him the support he needed. At last, they get to the plaza. Javad stood in a corner and look around frantically, in the hope that he will see his best friend but Cassius is nowhere to be found. " Javad let's go into the plaza. It's yours. We can get help there " Anahita begged urgently when she saw Javad losing blood now. " In your home, you got enemies too. I can't trust anyone now and I can't fight anymore. Cassius should be here at any moment " " Oh. I don't think so. Cassius won't ... " She stopped abruptly when she saw the oncoming car. " I take it all back. You guys shared a unique bond. The consigliere is here " Cassius stop the car before them and he swiftly alighted. His face was laced with great worry and concern. " Come in, come in Javad " He helped the Mafia Don into t
" He is the real man. He saved me two times. Guys Javad is the real and true Mafia Don. He took a bullet for me and then saved me from drowning " That was Anahita's words on the dining table when Javad appears in the doorway. He had woken up a while ago after having a good sleep for the first time in a very long time. He had sent Jade off so she could take a rest too while he took another bath and dress up in other simple clothes. Everyone turns when Javad appears at the entrance. He gave them his smile as he walks to sit at the head of the table. A place where his father, de Venta usually settled. Javad sees everyone is present. De Ventas who didn't get any seat around the table gets their chairs at the side. They are all engrossed and interested in Anahita's narration but the entry of the boss put them to a pause. Javad looks around again for the second time and frowns a little bit. The sit on his left side was vacant and it is meant for the carpo while the consigliere will
Cassius Montero woke up with a start. He let out a sigh and look around the room for a while. It has been happening since he returns to the fort. He wouldn't sleep much and not peacefully. This night he put on his slippers and walk out. He look ahead towards Javad's room and saw the lights still on. With a small sigh, he headed at once toward Javad's room. His footsteps could be heard since the fort is so silent.That night everyone could sleep peacefully since the boss is back safely. As for Miran, she couldn't have slept much happily. That night has been her happiest one since she cleared the air with the Mafia boss. Cassius entered Javad's room and he saw him leaning over the counter just at the side. Cassius goes straight to the bar as well. He reached for a glass cup and pours himself a drink. The two friends didn't speak for some time. They only focus and enjoy their drink gently. " Have you heard from Esteban after he is been released? " Javad finally asked and Cassius
For many minutes the guys waited for Anahita to react but she didn't. She only stares blankly at the Mafia Don. At last, she chuckled lightly and said softly. " It's a prank, right? Come on boss. You know that's never gonna happen. I won't ever be of help to Mattias. He shot at me, remember? " Javad looks away with a sigh at this. He soon rakes his black unruly wavy hair with his fingers. " This isn't about Mattias alone Anahita. His daughter is involved " " Oh," The lawyer mutters but then shook her head. " It's such a sweet pitiful situation but I think the consigliere should do this job " Everyone turns at once to Cassius who quickly shook his head in the negative. " Of course not. I stop being a lawyer long ago. I don't have the experience. I only study the law because my father forced me " " We all start somehow and someday. You can take the stand for Mattias's daughter " " Anahita! " Javad called abruptly, jolting the lady a little. " This situation involved a life. Ba
Javad de Venta was putting on his black leathered boots that bright morning when Cassius Montero pushed open his door without knocking. " Boss your sister is being admitted to Law Light college but I would have to go there and sign some necessary documents to finalize her entry " " Good " The Mafia Don only mutters and then headed out immediately. " We have a lot to do today " " Yeah, I know. I feel tired already. I just hope no one get shot " Cassius mutters as they walk along the hall. Javad de Venta however didn't respond to that words. He only step into the winged hall and stood still in the doorway. His eyes hover around and everyone who is around the dinning table stopped abruptly and turn to face him. Slowly Javad de Venta creased up his eyebrows when he saw the seat meant for the carpo still empty. " Is my uncle is not yet back? " He asked aloud to no one in particular but Dante, one of the three wannabes soldier of the Mafia organization replied. " Boss he is not yet
" I can't seem to wrap my head around this Boss. Why are you doing all this by yourself? " Anahita asked. " I mean, you can as well send some men to go with me " Javad de Venta didn't reply for some time. He only focused on the road ahead. After some time he sighs softly. " I can't sleep at night. An invisible being is urging me to find the truth myself and open my father's tomb. " I'd go blind if I failed to do this and I might lose my life " Silence stretched and Anahita stare at Javad as though he is going crazy. All of a sudden she burst into a fitful laughter that goes on for a long time. " Come on boss. You joke so seriously. Like I can believe that " The lady replied playfully later on. " Well, you can be playful when you are not furious. I know you can be " Javad de Venta only set his jaw and keeps mute. He had just said the truth but Anahita didn't believe him. He stood Before the old building in the small town that Mattias has directed them to and the Mafia Don alig
The declaration from Javad de Venta stops Ziba from breathing for some seconds. She have never thought Parvin would be alive. It sounds almost insane and unbelievable. " How can you tell son? How can you say Parvin is alive? Perhaps, have you seen her anywhere? " She asked the Mafia Don softly. This question however wasn't answered directly. Javad had his doubt too and he can't jump to conclusions without facts. He turns slowly to Mattias's mother and lets out a soft sigh. " I won't promise you what I can't give Mother. Today I promise to get you back your granddaughter. " As for your daughter-in-law, I will go into the mystery and unravel it. How about that? " Ziba smile. She just has to. She had to acknowledge the wisdom and dominance of the Mafia Don. " It is more than enough son. More than ever enough " Finally, Ziba gave Anahita the necessary documents concerning Bahar's birth and all. She even said she will arrive at the court and stand in the witness box if need be.
A sound of someone clapping came from behind Javad and he set his jaw when the scent of Lara and Daniel Duke came to his nostrils. " How nice. I see you are much more powerful than your father who died so poorly. How sad Javad" Daniel Duke taunted with a mocking chuckle. Javad didn't reply. He only gritted his teeth and watched as Daniel turned to call out. " Another coffee please " The same Waiter came again but this time with shivering legs. He presented the coffee which he placed on the table before fleeing. Now Daniel slowly pulled out his cell phone from his pocket and extended the screen for Javad to watch. There a live video was showing. It contains Blaze being held in a dimly lighted room. The little girl was locked up, crying and yelling for her dad who isn't no more as usual to help. Javad's heart dropped at this and he began to panic. He snapped up his head to county this time to ask." What the hell are you doing County? This psychopath held my nephew in a dark roo
That morning, Everything is going very well for Javad de Venta who had sent the necessary documents to Anahita Chen to do the needful and as he had promised himself, he visited the home of his aunty Sima to pay blaze a visit. The young boy was still in his bedroom when Javad's car park before the house. He alighted and walk in to knock at the door. It was sima that open up and Javad couldn't help but give her a hug. They exchange pleasantries, the woman in so much awe to see him. " Where is blaze aunty Sima ? " He asked and the woman replied. " In his room, getting ready for school " At once Javad goes ahead to attend to his nephew. He walk into the bedroom that Sima had arranged for her son to see blaze sitting on the bed quietly. He seem sad, to be sure and this broke Javad's heart. He walk ahead to him and settled carefully beside him. " Good morning blaze. it's been a long while " He said lightly, trying to create a lively atmosphere. " You try to hurt Mother in the past
Javad de Venta open his eyes and look around frantically. Very swiftly he launched forward to the mirror where he confirmed his real identity. The man that stare back at him in the mirror is no one but himself, the true Javad de Venta. A sigh escaped his lips and he flopped on the bed only to look around to see everyone in the bedroom with him. Even jade was there, the expression on everyone's faces of surprise at his behavior. He alone knew about the journey he has gone through and back. The position he had seen Zahra and the two task he has done and accomplished. How long have I been asleep? " He asked and Skyler replied gently. " Just a two days and a lot has happened in that two days " This makes Javad's jaw dropped. He couldn't believe it but then he knows it's the work of system. He turn to Vier and gulped down hard before Shifting his gaze gently. " I have gone to see Zahra and I witnessed how she is suffering. I have decided to obey Vires. I will take revenge for him.
The two best friends couldn’t believe their sight. Chen was however more stunned to see siwang and how capable he now is. Slowly his legs took him to where siwang stood. “ You… How possible are you here? “ “ It’s a long story that seem short. I can explain later. Oh Chen. I am so excited to see you “ Thanks that the instructors isn’t present, yet, Siwang shared a warm hug with Chen. “ How is the hole in your heart? Do not tell me you work all night “ Chen asked, staring down at the axe in siwang’s hand. “ I do “ He replied with a chuckle. “ I can’t believe it myself. The hole in my heart is healed. Now I am more healthy “ Chen nodded uneasily, though he knows there is more to the story. He look around for sometime and then sigh sadly. “ I should probably get to work now Siwang. A certain siblings are out, awaiting their punishment which would take place in an hour time because they fail to do their task “ This makes Siwang clenched his jaw. He look away for som
Haoran and Siwang were ushered into SRCT. Siwang scanning everyone carefully. It was a long hall from the entrance. They follow the Instructors who lead them to a large rectangular room where there is Numerous bunk beds but No one in sight. “ You both should share a bed. The other boys will arrive soon to get rest. You will be working the night shift “ The man who has lead them instructed. He didn’t wait for any reply before he walk out at once, leaving siwang and Haoran in puzzle. They stood still for many minutes of silent without moving. Finally Haoran walk to a bed at the window and flop on it. “ Night shift? I am confused “ He mutters to siwang who was busy thinking hard. “ Chen might be one of the boys who will be here soon. At night, I guess we will know our fate “ No sooner had Siwang finish speaking, the Instructor brought some other guys and left. Siwang went to the sit beside Haoran and they waited patiently for the night. After sitting for about two hours, num
The cold chilled wind and the cry of some kids from nearby finally forced Siwang to open his eyes. He sat up very slowly, feeling dizzy at first. He look around to realize he is back to his normal world. He found himself in a tent which was beside a glowing hearth. A little crowd were around this fire, munching on dry bread. Lost to the world and waiting for death to arrive. Siwang sat up from the bed he laid on and walk out of the tent. The cold wind compelled him to get beside the hearth as well so he could keep warm. “ Hi “ A man Siwang sat with greeted. “ I am Haoran. I get you into my tent when you collapse on the floor “ Siwang turn to Haoran slowly, the man who seem to be in his late twenties smile at him. “ I’m siwang. Thank you for your help “ “ Don’t mention “ Haoran reply gently with a shrug. “ We are going to die anyway “ “ I don’t think so “ Siwang reply gently. He smiles softly at Haoran and then turn to the fire. “ We shouldn’t be negative “ Haor
Siwang thought he is Dead but no. He soon realized he was actually laying on a flofy bed. His eyes fluttered opens and he look around to see he is in a grandiose bedroom. His heart dropped down to his stomach when he saw this. “ No … No no, this is wrong “ He sprang up at once and made to dash out when he caught his reflection in the body length mirror. A sight he has never expected. He stop at once to stare at himself in the mirror. His hands going up to his cheek, to feel the satin smooth skin he now possessed. Relieved was he when he realized he still have his face but he knows something else is amiss. Siwang walk forward to the mirror and peer closely. A gasp escaped his mouth when he saw his eyes glowing in bright red light. He couldn’t believe his sight. He turn slowly, trying hard to find an explanation to what is going on. “ Where am I ? “ He asked himself cluelessly but then receive a response. “ In the system world Master. Welcome, you are the New host “ The
Siwang’s eyes fluttered open to gaze up. His vision was still hazy but he wasn’t feeling any pain. His hands went to his head and he tried to pushed himself up. “ Don’t even think about it “ Chen’s voice came through. At once Siwang’s vision become clearer. He sat up to take his vicinity. He realized he is in a tent. “ You should lay down siwang. You are still healing “ “ Where are we? “ He asked Instead, ignoring Chen’s advise. “ Just outside the survival rescue team camp. SRCT “ “ What happened? “ He asked softly, trying to remember how he was brought in. Chen didn’t respond for sometime and that brought a frown to siwang. “ I followed you secretly to Xiu’s home and just as expected, she betrayed you and leave you for death. The planet shook when you was left outside and most of the buildings collapse Including Xiu’s. She is here with other people who are now homeless. The government invited the homeless people here. Those who are wealthy and healthy enough would be allo
After the planet start cracking up and shooking, the sky had lost it’s full valour and Beauty so all the time the atmosphere is covered in green mist. Siwang walked to his bike,hop on it and drove out. He tried not to panicked for he knows the consequences. His heart still needs healing. He look around for sometime, trying to adjust his vision to the green mist that filled the air. The street was Empty and everywhere is chilled cold. The walls of numerous building had started cracking up, filling siwang with concern. He tried to focus on his mission. His girlfriend, Xiu. After a Long lonely ride from his home, siwang finally stop at a very tall building. He look up at it for sometime, his eyes actually on a particular window which belongs to Xiu. Slowly he pulled out his cellphone and dialed her number. After the third ring, the call was answered but Instead of the feminine , tantalizing voice of Xiu, the thick deep voice of a man boom at the other end. “ Hello, i
