Suddenly, Cordelia’s phone rang, and as she turned the screen, she realized that it was McKyala.

“I need to get going now Jared. I’d see you at school, or when next I’m supposed to come here. Thank you so much for helping me out.”

There was a tingling feeling in Jared’s heart. One that he had been trying to avoid.

Love.

Jared never thought he was going to fall in love with Cordelia.

The sole purpose of doing what he was doing was to avenge his sister’s death.

“No. No. No. No. This can’t be happening. This shouldn’t be happening. Jared said as he retreated to his seat. I can’t possibly be falling in love with her.” Jared said as he laughed at himself mockingly.

“Where have you been Cordelia? I’ve been calling you. The driver said he dropped you off a few meters away from Jared’s house. So where did you go to?”

“Ohhh did you go back to meet Jared? Was the sex that good?” McKayla said with a cunning look on her face.”

“Yes, McKayla, the sex was that good. He drilled me so hard, and so b

    Cordelia barely got any sleep last night.Apart from the wrestling thoughts of facing David, Sasha and even Jared tomorrow, she had never had so much to drink in her entire life.As she rolled on the bed, one could hear the sounds of many waters in her belly.It was like a red balloon filled with alot of water.“Hmmm…” Cordelia let out a deep sigh as she sat up on her bed and used a rubber band to pack her hair up.She looked at her face in the mirror, and the sleep marks on it would tell a very good lie that she had a good nights rest.Suddenly, she squeezed her face like she just had a jug of freshly squeezed lemons. The aftermath of the big bottle of whiskey was already kicking in.It was almost 7:00am, so she had to prepare quickly.She got out of bed gently and worked her way to the bathroom.After 30 minutes, she was done.She quickly took her bag and ran outside.“Oh I pray I don’t miss the bus, I cannot walk to the school with my head turning left and right like this.” Cordel

    Suddenly, Cordelia stopped in her tracks, as she walked to the classroom.One would think that she saw a ghost.She turned to David, and looked at him straight in the eye, like they were having a stare down.“You left me when I needed you the most. And now you’re here? Why? Why did you come back? Why now?” Cordelia spat these words at him, trying to control her anger and sadness.“I’m sorry Cordelia, I shouldn’t have done that. I don’t know what came over me. I’m really sorry. Please forgive me. I’d be better. I will do better.” David responded to her.“I don’t want you to do better David. I don’t want to let you into my life now and you leave later again.” Cordelia said with a serious look on her face.David stood there not knowing what to say.However, Cordelia knew that she was making a choice, like she was asked to in the dream that she just had.‘I need to do what’s best for me.’ Cordelia said to herself quietly.‘Even if I don’t know what that is.’ She continued.She left David

    With nowhere to turn and nowhere to run, Cordelia didn’t know what she was going to do.At this point, only one name came to heart.McKayla. However, Cordelia was quite hesitant to go, because she knew she would have to most likely confess to a lot of things if she was going to talk to McKayla about this situation.She let out a deep sigh.She had already gone back to the classroom to sit with her head full of so many thoughts.“What could the pocket watch and black feather mean?”“What does Sasha want with me?” Cordelia asked herself with a puzzled look on her face.She didn’t know what to expect, and she was already becoming tired of being careful about everything.“I wish Mr Smith was here with me. He would have solved this problem at the snap of a finger. I hope you come soon Mr Smith.” She said to herself as she lowered her head on the table in front of her.Tired from the mental exhaustion and running around, Cordelia fell asleep for about 10 minutes inside the classroom, only t

Each corner she turned only led her deeper into the labyrinth, trapping her in a web of fear.But amidst the turmoil, a faint glimmer of hope emerged. In the midst of her nightmare, Cordelia heard a familiar voice calling out to her, a voice filled with warmth and reassurance.

I am here with you," the voice whispered gently.Startled, Cordelia opened her eyes and found herself back in her apartment, bathed in the soft glow of dawn.

  • AN ANGEL FOR THE MAFIA   Give me back my life.

    Cordelia arrived at Jared's house, after journeying for two hours.Her heart pounding with a mix of apprehension and hope.“I hope Jared helps me solve this. I need my life back.” Cordelia said, heaving a deep sigh.She needed answers, guidance, and most importantly, someone she could trust, and here she was, trying to take her chance at Jared.As she entered the familiar surroundings of Jared's office, she noticed the air of seriousness on his face. His usually warm smile that she had seen him display with people was replaced with a furrowed brow and a thoughtful expression.‘He never really smiles when I’m around him anyways, so why am I even bothered? There are weightier matters.’ Cordelia said to herself.Jared motioned for Cordelia to sit down on the chair in front of him, as he took the seat across from her. “Have your seat Cordelia.” Jared said in his firm voice.The room was filled with an air of anticipation as they both braced themselves for the discussion that lay ahead

Immediately they entered the study, the professor greeted them with a warm smile, his eyes sparkling with curiosity.“Ah, Jared, I've been expecting you. And you must be Cordelia.” Professor Everett said, gesturing for them to take a seat amidst the stacks of ancient tomes and artifacts that filled his study. “I hear that you've stumbled upon a mystery that goes far deeper than you realize.” Professor Malcolm turned and said to Cordelia.Cordelia's heart raced with antic

    “Good Morning Jared, call me when you get this.” This was the message that Jared got from his uncle Jared. Immediately Jared was awake and he saw the message, he called El-Azul.“Good Morning Uncle. I saw your text. Will you help me now?”“Relax Jared. Relax. You want blood to flow, and it will. But we must be careful. You know that none of this must tie back to us. We have too much stuff to move, so we can’t be held back by little matters like this.”“I understand uncle, but Senator Ivan has been threatening me for a long time now. I want him to pay for his words.”El Azul let out a laugh as Jared spoke.“Not even his actions, you want him to pay for his words. My brother has raised a tiger. I’m impressed.”“But, use your power wisely Jared. And clean up everything carefully when you’re done.” El-Azul said in a calm yet authoritative tone.“I will, uncle. I will.” Jared said with a suspicious smile on his face.“Does this mean that I can throw bullets?”“Yes boy. Let me know what yo

    Jared scanned the house with his eyes to see if an intruder had entered.“Stay behind me Cordelia.” Jared said as he approached the kitchen shelf to take a knife.“What are you going to do with that?” Cordelia asked as she held tightly unto his black Calvin Klein button up shirt.“Just stay behind me.” Jared said is an authoritative voice.Suddenly, one of Jared’s dogs ran into the kitchen again, colliding into another vase.“Oh. It was the dog.” Jared stood still with a relieved look on his face.“Who could have let Bruno out in such a hot weather?”“Bruno! Come here.” Jared called out to his dog, pulled it by his collar and took it to the cage.All this while, Cordelia could only stand and be thankful that those unknown men had not found their way to this place again.“Cordelia? Hope you’re good? What’s the matter?” Jared asked, seeing that Cordelia had rested her head on the white kitchen table.“No, it’s nothing… I’m doing okay. I was waiting for you.” Cordelia said.“Jared, when

    Hey, hey, Cordelia… Everything is going to be alright. You just need to relax Cordelia… Relax… Take a deep breath” Jared said to her in a soft tone.“Wipe your tears dear. You’re going to be okay.”“Show me, where did you find the feather?”Cordelia pointed at the mat in front of her door in the hallway, as she wiped her tears with the other hand.Immediately, Jared let out a deep sigh and pointed Cordelia towards the bed so she could sit down.“You’re going to be fine Cordelia, just take a deep breath.” Jared said as he wiped her tears off.“Jared, I don’t want to die now.”“You know, even if I will, I don’t want to die without knowing who killed my parents. I don’t want to die without finding them and making them pay.”“They’re the reason why I’m in such a mess. They’re the reason why my life has seemingly turned upside down, because if my parents were here, I wouldn’t be facing this much pain Jared. I won’t.”Jared let out a deep sigh as he listened to Cordelia. All he could think

    SAKI knew that as Jared had pronounced judgment upon Brian, there would be no turning back.All SAKI could do was to shake his head.“Your decision cannot be questioned, my Lord.”“But allow me to ask, why Master?” There was thick silence in the air after SAKI had asked Jared that question.If a pin hit the ground at that point, they’d hear.Few minutes later, the car came to a halt. As they drove earlier, Jared had received a call that his new shipment of Meth had arrived, and was ready to be moved into the streets.But before he came down from the car, he looked SAKI in the eyes through the mirror in the car.“Your friend spilled blood that I treasure.”“He made me bury my own. The only one that I truly had.”“Your friend took light away from me. He made me live in the darkness.”As he spoke, his tone began to rise in anger.“SAKI! Your friend took away my eyes.”“He left me blind!”“SAKI! I will take everything that belongs to him.”“I will set his world on fire and make him watc

    “Yes sir. That was Brian sir. I’m 100% sure.”SAKI answered in a tone that sounded like he was puzzled but with a smile on his face.Jared stood there, quiet, like he was just weaning off the anesthesia from a surgery.Suddenly, he grabbed SAKI tightly by the collar of his shirt and pulled him up. “What did you call the name of the boy you said you saw?”“His…his.. name was Brian sir… sorry… his name is Brian sir, SAKI said shaking like a fish outside water.”“Are you sure? Jared asked in a strong tone.”“Yes sir, I’m sure, SAKI said in a stammering tone.”Immediately Jared let go of his shirt and SAKI fell back to the bean bag where he was previously seated.‘No no no… he may not be the one. Relax Jared. Relax.’ Jared said to himself.The last time Jared heard that name, was the day that Adeena, his sister, had hurriedly left the house after her birthday.Her day of death and Absence.The day that Injured Jared deep into the chambers of his soul.It wasn’t a day that Jared was willi

    The time of execution had come.The night is here!The night draped itself over the city like a thick shroud, concealing the clandestine operations that the Seven-Eyed Dragon Mafia clan wanted to perpetuate.Jared, clad in black, stood with a calm yet fiery determination in his eyes. He knew that tonight would mark a pivotal moment in his life, one that would determine the course of his vendetta against Senator Ivan.‘Nothing is going to happen to you Cordelia. Nothing. Absolutely nothing.’ He said to himself in a low tone.As the minutes ticked away, the silence in the room grew heavier, suffocating, as if the very air held its breath in anticipation. Jared's heart pounded in his chest, the rhythmic beat driving his resolve even further. The time for action was at hand.Ian and Scott, his loyal confidants, stood beside him, their eyes unwavering, fully committed to carrying out their leader's bidding. Jared could always rely on their unyielding support, forged through shared experie
