DAISY’S POVHe stared at me with his eyes, looking half closed, and even as his eyes stopped glowing, the atmosphere still felt intense. He walked up to me, and held my hands, caressing them with both his thumbs as he stared into my eyes. I was lost in his eyes, and within me, was filled with an intense desire for him. Then he grabbed my waist, and brought me closer to him, slowly.“You look outstanding.” He complimented, staring at me like he was so absorbed with me.Hi compliment sent a burst of fireworks down there, and I could feel electrifying sweetness rush through my body as he pinned my body to his.“Thanks.” I managed to respond as it seemed like a giant doughnut was in my throat with the romantic moves, he was making on me.Before I could think of anything else, Max leaned in closer, and kissed my lips. As our lips came in contact, I felt a rush of adrenaline, and bursts of pleasure in every part of my body, most especially down there.As if the sweet taste of our lips had
JEZEBEL’S POVIt felt so good to know that things were all settled, and planned. Kyle had agreed for me to stay at his place for 2 weeks, and even more, depending on how much time I needed, to execute my plans. And to also make Daisy see me as less of a threat to her life.The more she felt that way, the easier it would become, to discover what I had done.“Hmm. Beautiful.” I spoke as I stared at the sky, briefly while heading to the station where they had held Martha down.With me, was a young lady whom I had instructed, to take the fall, instead of Martha.I swerved to the intersection on the left, and my drive was smooth as there were barely any cars to slow me down, on the way.In just about twenty minutes more, I had gotten to the station, and pulled up my car.I got down from the car, and walked into the station.“Good evening, ma’am. What brings you here?” One of the cops asked, politely.“I’ve come to see your chief.” I informed them, and they paved a way for me.One of them
MAX’ POVI held on to my phone, while waiting for a response from her. I knew it was a wrong way to find out as it would seem like I didn’t trust her. Although, she had been acting different, for weeks now. Always heading out somewhere. While I would have loved to question her to tell me wherever she was going to, I didn’t. And that was just so she would have her freedom, and not feel limited by me.“I don’t understand. You came over to Paris!” She voiced out, in an excited tone.A wave of relief washed over me, and every tensed part of me, felt better. It was nice to know she wasn’t the one, as she sounded so calm.“I’m just kidding. I hope you’re enjoying your time, over there?” I questioned, with a smile on my face.“Yeah, I am. I mean, it’s really a pleasant place to be in. I feel much better, and relaxed.” She responded, and giggled over the phone.It felt so delightful to hear her sounding okay, rather than feeling unhappy, regarding all the ugly recent situations that had happ
DAISY’S POVI also glanced at the message which Max got, and it was so shocking that it was the same message we got. Max and I exchanged baffled looks; I had to turn to look at the woman in charge.“Ma’am. Does everything have this same message?” I asked as I handed it over for her to see.She received the message from me, and adjusted her glasses as she stared at it.“No, my dear.” She responded as she handed it back to me.Then I collected the one which was in Max’ hands.“He has the same one as well.” I showed it to her, wondering why it had to be the same thing, both of us, picked, when everything wasn’t the same.“Oh, dear. This doesn’t happen often.” She spoke as she squinted her eyes, even through her glasses.“Then…then why did it have to be ours?” I questioned, with my lips trembling.“Daisy. Calm down.” Max said to me as he placed his hand on my shoulder.“Since it came to this, I can only tell you that you both have to be wary, especially as you picked the same thing.”“Yo
DAISY’S POVWe both headed to the room, and I stepped into the bathroom to wash up. I couldn’t help but grin from ear to ear, each time the beautiful moment we just had, flashed before my eyes.I washed my hair one more time, and then turned off the shower.On stepping out of the bathroom, into the bathroom, Max had also freshened up. I guess he used the bathroom in one of the other rooms.“Here comes the beauty.” He uttered, with a smile on his face. My cheeks went hot a little, and my eyes fell to the ground, finding it a little difficult to make eye contact with him.Then my phone buzzed and I walked over to the bed to pick it up. “A video message?” I uttered under my breath, then opened it.A sharp gasp escaped my mouth as I saw my precious little daughter in the hands of supposed murders. “Mommy! Help me!” She cried out loud, in tears.Max overheard the scream, and stood up immediately to join me, out of curiosity.“What’s this?” He questioned as he hadn’t gotten what was happ
DAISY’S POVMax opened the text, and I stared at it, with him, and to our dismay, the response was a big hit to our hopeful hearts.“To hell with you!”My heart felt slashed by a sharp sword, and I could barely breathe.“Sh*t!” Max cursed out, sharply, and then rose to his feet.He dashed out of the room, and I got up to my feet as well, and followed after him to know what he was up to, next.On getting to the living room, Nicholas had just walked up to him.“I need you to track the caller, right now.” He instructed Nicholas, in a tone of seriousness.“On it.” Nicholas responded as he got on his laptop, and tapped at the keys, as fast as he could.He seemed to be good at such things, and I hoped deeply in my heart that they would be traceable. I couldn’t bear to imagine what they could have done or what they were doing, currently to Nadia.After a while of tapping, Nicholas let out a sigh of relent, and shook his head.“It’s impossible, Max. They seem to be experts as they have blocke
MAX’ POV“Have you been able to get any update on him?” I asked, as Nicholas walked into the living room.He shook his head, lightly, and sighed. “I used all kinds of process, and procedures, even expert hackers as well, still, no positive result. I couldn’t track the sender.” Nicholas informed me.Hearing this, only got me more infuriated. I had skipped work, because Nadia’s life was more important, and even apart from sending Nicholas to do his job, and other things, he was also trying his best from his own end.“No! Sh*t!” He voiced out, frustratingly, and even punched the wall.“Please you have to calm down.” Nicholas uttered, looking really concerned about my current state.“How am I supposed to be calm when I don’t know what exactly they are doing to my daughter, at this moment.” I said as I connected the heel of my palm on my forehead, and dragged it down the chin.“You don’t have to worry. I believe we’re going to find her. “Nicholas assured me as he patted my shoulder.Then I
DAISY’S POVImmense joy flowed in my heart, and thoughts about how I would hug Nadia so bad, ran through my head quickly.“So, did they inform you of the time they want you to bring them the ransom?” I asked, sounding impatient.“Uhm… They haven’t informed me on that. But I have a plan. There’s no way I’m letting them off the hook for doing such to my daughter.”“What plan do you have in mind?”“I’m going to double-cross them, obviously. Just when they think I’m coming alone, and then giving them the money they ask for, I will give them the surprise they never expected, in the first place.” He revealed to me, and I nodded my head slowly, in acknowledgement.I felt assured that things were going to go well, and those abductors would face their end. I watched as he put a call through, to the cops, and I hoped they would find whatever idea he had, possible to play out.He had asked them to act like different passers-by, who don’t know whatever could be going on, and it was certain that t
MAX’ POVThe next day, I went to see the executive in the hospital. I had been unable to see him the previous evening because he was sleeping, and I didn't want to interrupt his sleep. He was sitting up, watching the news when I came in.“Alpha Max…” He said, trying to get to his feet, but I stopped him.“How are you feeling?” I asked, and placed the fruits I got for him on the little table over his legs. “I’m sorry. I…”“You're sorry? That was none of your fault.”“A reporter came by and saw me injured.”“Oh yeah, that reporter? He came to threaten me.” I said, with a laugh. “What? How dare he?”“Let him be. Just focus on your health.”“I'm healing already. It was a deep gash, but I'm already healing. Even if he speaks to the public, I'm going to tell them I had no injury, and came here for something entirely different.”“You don't have to do that…” I began, but he shook his head.“A few of my colleagues came and told me the whole story. Alex was such a sweet boy, and in exchange,
DAISY’S POVI felt the urge to ask him why he had been staring, but the situation was just too eerie for me to bother asking. Who knew what it could lead to, if I actually tried to ask?Without wasting much time, I picked up all that I wanted to get, and then paid for it, even without collecting the change as I had told the seller not to bother.Just as I began to head back to where Max and our children were, I heard quickened footsteps behind me, and I almost screamed, if not that he jumped right in front of me.Although, I gasped in shock as I wasn’t expecting him to pop up just in front of me.“Why are you stalking me!” I voiced out, trying to muster up the courage to confront him.But then, he chuckled, and swept his flying hair, to the back.“Stalk you? You just met me at the shop. There’s no way I was stalking you.”“But you kept staring at me.”“Oh, that? I was admiring you. I love the way you look. You are a very beautiful woman.” He complimented me, staring at me with lustful
DAISY’S POV“Daisy? Wow. Been a long while.” Two of the neighbors who came in, uttered as they looked at me in surprise.I only smiled shyly at them, and they looked so happy to see me.“Why are you all being so nice? Isn’t she a wicked daughter? She hasn’t been here, in years to see her father, and only came when I sent a text to her. You don’t deserve to live among us.” Mrs. Dane shouted at the top of her voice.Surprisingly, the other neighbors urged her to leave, and even had to drag her awayAlthough, my step-father wasn’t a man I loved, because he made me dislike him, especially because of the pain he made me go through, but I felt sorry for his death.“What was the cause of his death?” I asked, out of curiosity.“He died of kidney stones, due to his bad drinking habit, Daisy.” Mrs. Powell answered me, softly. “I’ll take you to his grave.” She offered, and I had to wait for her to get properly dressed before she took me to his grave which wasn’t really far, so we didn’t need to
MAX’ POVAbout thirty minutes had passed since I got a call from the cops, and then all of a sudden, my phone rang. when I glanced at it, I noticed it was Nicholas who was calling. So, I answered his call.“What’s the update?” I asked him as he was with the cops, the whole time.And for him to have been the one to call me, I didn’t think they had any luck in finding Jezebel’s body. “Her body is missing. She might have been devoured by the creatures.” He informed me, and I sighed. “Alright then. Talk to you later.”As I dropped the call, I sighed deeply again. Well, if they had searched over and over, than it meant that she was really gone. Although, it was quite disturbing that I didn’t see it with my naked eyes, but I had no choice than to give up on the search.It also annoyed me that I kept getting worried over someone who had done many worse things to I, Daisy and our children. I shook my head, and decided to forget about her, since she wasn’t even supposed to be in my head, at
JEZEBEL’S POV“Good. A face-lock.” He uttered as he stared at the phone, and began to walk up to me.“No. No. Don’t do this.” I spoke, shaking my head as he walked up to me.But then, he held my head firmly, without seeming violent, and all, and the phone unlocked, then he let my head free.“Let go of my phone! Let go!” I yelled at him, feeling rage, build up from inside me.But then, he didn’t say a word as he walked up to the bed, and sat as he scrolled through the messages. I was doomed.I could see how his facial expression changed from being curious to one of rage. Before I could make out what was happening in his head, he rose to his feet, and dashed towards me. He raised me to my feet, and pinned my throat to the wall.“How could you do this to me, despite all that I have done to you!” Max growled at me, with rage, clearly seen in his eyes.My heart was thumping hard and loud that I thought it was going to beat out of my mouth. It was even challenging to gulp down my saliva at
JEZEBEL’S POVNoticing that they had gotten the description of the garage, I had to act fast on it. Immediately, I excused myself from the room, and then went to the balcony in our room to make a call.“Hello ma’am.” Darwin spoke, over the phone.“I need you all to get your asses out of the garage. They just found out where the garage is, and anytime soon, they’ll be on their way. Ensure you leave no trace.” I instructed him, firmly.“Alright, ma’am. On it.” He voiced out, and then I hung up.I stepped out of the room only to see Max, Nicholas and some other men, going out of the palace. My heart felt troubled as I wasn’t certain of how fast those men could be, in clearing out all traces that could give us away.“Goodness.” I muttered under my breath as I bit my fingernails, feeling anxious and worried about how things were going to turn out.I walked back into the room, and sat on the bed, scrolling through my phone, several times, doing nothing in particular. Just before anything e
MAX’ POVMy phone rang, and when I brought it out of my pocket, I discovered it was Jezebel who was calling me, so I answered the call.“Hey, baby.” She spoke, with so much joy, felt in her voice.I walked towards the balcony, and stepped out to take her call.“Hi love. How are you doing?” I asked as I dipped my other hand into my pocket.“I’m okay. I was missing you so much, today, so I had to call, to check up on you.” She said, and chuckled.I smiled, and sighed.“What’s wrong, baby?” She asked, noticing the difference in my behavior.“A lot happened, while you weren’t around.”“What do you mean by that? What’s going on, babe?” She asked again, sounding concerned.“Nadia was abducted, and was even poisoned, as they already told us they were going to finish her off, last night.”Jezebel let out a sharp gasp. “Are you for real?” She questioned, sounding like she was finding it difficult to believe me.“You know there are no jokes when it comes to topics like this. She could have give
JEZEBEL’S POVI was still feeling the pain of the mistake which those men had made, last night, and I just couldn’t get over it. Even what I had to do to them, still annoyed me, as well, because now wasn’t the time to waste men.~flashback~“Gosh! You. Silly. Scumbags!” I yelled as I kicked the three of them, one by one, out of anger.“We’re sorry, ma’am.” They apologized, in a trembling tone.“What the hell! How could you make such a silly mistake!” I yelled at them, at the top of my voice.“We’re sorry, ma’am. We felt she wouldn’t be able to escape as we had already injected her with the poison.”“She managed to escape from here, and yet, we still can’t find her, outside. Can you just see how much this mistake of yours, has cost?” I questioned them, feeling my blood boil, and unable to see how possible it was, for me to calm down.Venting my anger on them, wasn’t enough. I had to spill blood.I brought out a gun, pointed it at them, and shot them, one by one, until they fell dead.~
DAISY’S POVIt was evening already, and so much tears had been shed to an extent that my eyes were giving me a burning sensation. Yet, more tears streamed down my eyes as I thought more and more of what they could be doing to my daughter.I dreaded the next message they were going to send to me was going to be Nadia’s dead body. There was no way I could bear that. I wouldn’t feel alive, anymore; neither would I forgive myself for not being able to protect her, regardless of if I was present, or not.“Goodness.” I muttered under my breath as I kept waiting, for a message from them.The time was 8pm, and that was obviously late into the night, so why would they not have sent a message, at all? Did they change their mind, or were they cooking something different, up?I looked towards my window, staring at the night sky, pleadingly, hoping that I would hear nothing but good news. Hour by hour, time passed, even until 11pm, and yet, no news. I couldn’t think straight anymore, and so many
