"Dad!" Stacy couldn't believe it. The corner of Jason's eyes crinkled as he watched the two. Doctor Axel stood there with a smile on his face.Seeing the confusion on Jason's face, Axel eased the situation for him. "He's Mr Torres, my patient, but wait, is that Stacy? Stacy Torres?" He asked surprised. Everything became clear to Jason, he stared at the two as they hugged and tears flooded Stacy's eyes.*******Stacy and her dad sat in the hospital's waiting room. They have been discussing a lot of things until he noticed the beautiful ring on her finger. Stacy saw how her dad gazed at the ring and flaunted it at him with a wide smile."It's an engagement ring, I got engaged today!""Really?""Yes." Her cheeks flushed at her pronouncement. She darted her gaze to Jason and her dad slowly followed her. "Is that him?"Stacy nodded and her dad averted his gaze to her, who was still dreamily staring at Jason answering a call. He turned to their direction and raised his brow at her, making
FEW PEACEFUL DAYS LATERA round fancy table full of different delicacies and drinks was surrounded by them. A party, at Amor House. The weather was already dim and it was a little windy. It was a celebration of Jason and Stacy's engagement and Mr. Torres's comeback. Everyone was happy, eating, drinking and sharing stories. Bethany, Xavier, Mr Torres, Stacy, Jason and Blaze all had beautiful smiles on their faces but as you know happiness can disappear in a flick of your fingers.The door came down to reveal a lady, standing with a sinister grin, dressed in fitted leather black trousers with black sneakers. She had different piercing filled with black studs and dangling earrings. Her hair was packed in a ponytail, with dark shades shoved into the upper part. Her black huge leather jacket sat upon a black crop top. Everything on her was as black as the devil's soul."Rich!" She called happily"Mom...?" Stacy dropped her fork and her jaw dropped."Witch?" Blaze's eyes dilated, she couldn
Jason held the man's legs and ended up slamming him on the floor, causing his head to hit hard. The other man was on Xavier, Jason walked up to him and pulled him away by gripping his hair, giving Xavier the chance to punch him fiercely in his face. He held his face and staggered back, two other men ran in. The two brothers came together, their backs against each other with readied fists.******************Bethany threw a stone across, the men got distracted and one of them followed the sound of the stone while the other kept guarding the door. She shut her eyes in disappointment and balled her tender fists. Sucking in her breath, she mistakenly stepped on an empty plastic bottle which generated noise. The man tilted in that direction and strode to where she was. Before he could get there, She ran out but he saw her and angrily increased his pace.As she ran, the man chased after her. Her heart thumped crazily. Finding her way back to Xavier and Jason, she could see the other man gr
The lady and the men got up to Xavier."Cease him." Being able to do nothing, the men yanked him off the ground. "Look for the old man." Two men ran out but crashed on the floor after a series of gunshots. It was the police, Jason had called the police earlier on, using a telephone booth."Your hands in the air!" They commanded and all of them surrendered, an ambulance arrived shortly and Blaze, alongside Bethany was moved in by the medics. Mr Torres came out from his hiding place, and an eerie chill slid through his veins accompanied by goosebumps crawling over his flesh.All the men were handcuffed and pushed into the truck. The lady looked irritated, while thinking on how to communicate to Edna.***************Jason came down to see some men guarding Amor house. On stealthy footsteps, he got off the truck to them. Guarding their visual rears tightly, Jason scouted for some openings through their defence. "This might work" He nodded as he stepped back to restrategize. An empty ca
Edna looked down, checking the distance from where she stood to the ground for a proper escape. Turning frantically, she aimed her gun at Jason again, making sure he doesn't move. Sirens could be heard from afar. Edna's eyes bulged. "You called the cops on me? You!" She shot toward Jason and jumped off the rooftop. Jason made to run after her when Stacy hugged him, holding him back. "Please, don't. Don't chase after her." Her voice cracked. Jason lowered his face to her in awe. "You want her to escape? She's a Mafian queen!""And my mom... Please."Jason stared at her dumbstruck, panting. He swallowed nothing and slid his gaze to see Edna, igniting her car engine to escape. As she drove off, two police cars chased after her. Stacy lowered her face in sadness and disengaged from Jason. She sat down and began sobbing. Jason got to her and cleaned off her face. He dragged her closer, tapping her back gently. Then, an outburst of tears came from her. *************Blaze and Bethany were r
Chapter One "Let me go, please" a lady pleaded as she was dragged forcefully by some masked guys"Shut up! Who told you it's safe at night, especially for ladies like you? A hefty masked man dressed in a black jacket and trousers with red shoes stepped in and yelled loudly. The man has a large deep old cut on his face which gave him this dreadful look. He had this red hat above his scattered black hair. In his hand, lay a short cigarette which he has been smoking since."I'm sorry, but please just let me go, I promise not to be late again." She replied trembling greatly with fear."Everyone leave at once and Pablo, get me Moon" He growled. The boys left immediately as if their lives depended on it.Pablo, stood there trembling in fear. "And what's with you? The hefty masked man from earlier asked."Stone! You know how callous and ruthless Moon is, he may have my head if I knock on his door without notice," he replied facing downwards, shivering.Stone gasped and dialled a number. "Y
"What are you doing here?! Moon yelled "I...I... Stacy stuttered. Her eyes met his blue metallic eyes, piercing hers, waiting for an explanation. He creased his brow at her making her speak immediately. "I'm sorry, I couldn't help but admire your face." She blushed "My face?" he asked lowly. "My face!" he yelled as his hand went to his unmasked face. He stood up abruptly from where he was and faced the window, placing his hand on it with his face down. "You are not meant to see my face!" He yelled angrily. She got scared "I'm sorry, I couldn't sleep. She stood up slowly, picked up the mask and tried handing it to him. With her gaze down. "Here's your mask, I swear I won't peek" He yanked the mask off her hands, and turning to her, he gasped and stood akimbo. "Hey!" He called out. Stacy couldn't lift her face, she was damn scared to death. "Hey! Stacy, right? Look up, you have already seen my face, what's with that?" He arched his brow at her. He moved towards the switch a
Picking up her disturbing land phone, Stacy sluggishly placed it on her ear."Hello" she mouthed slowly"Babe! I've been calling for ages, what happened to your phone? I had to go to my contact book to get this damn old number." Her best friend sounded concerned from the other side of the phone."Are you sick? You didn't even call me to tell me that you won't be at work today, I was patiently waiting since morning but I perceived something to be wrong when I didn't see you throughout the day" she breathed out."Bethany, I'm sorry, I haven't been myself since yesterday" Stacy replied slowly. " I'll make it up to you, I promise" she whined."No need, I'm already at your doorstep, come open up""What? Stacy rushed out, opening the door. She saw Bethany In front of the door."Hi", she greeted and got her way in while Stacy followed suit.Bethany slumped on the fluffy couch, picked up the remote and switched on the TV. "Good morning Stacy, jeez! You look worn out and pale. What's popping? S

Jeremy was jogging delightfully, his pods plugged into his ears, he was experiencing this happiness he couldn't fathom until he saw Alya, coming in the opposite direction. When they got close enough to greet themselves, he brushed by her without a backward glance. Alya paused and turned with disbelieving eyes. "Did he just pass me without saying hi?" She asked rhetorically, her brows hung up. She gasped and continued her jogging with a perturbed mind. Jeremy exhaled feeling so relieved that he could pass without saying anything. "I pulled it off." He smiled and hastened his steps to prepare for today's work.At the company, he met Bethany smiling nonstop as she listened to her music with an earpod. "Good morning Beth!" He greeted and she quickly lowered her music volume. "What's up, Jerry?" He squinted his eyes and folded his arms. Curiously filling his veins."I should be asking you that, you are incredibly happy." She blushed at the statement. "Well, I am. So... What about the lad
Jason pulled out a chair and sat down, facing his laptop. He dug his hands into his pocket to take out a flash drive. Staring blankly at it and turning it around his fingers, he inserted it into the laptop. It was the video of the day, Crystal died. How did he get the video?FLASHBACKWhile on the ground, groaning at the pain he was feeling, he saw a clip laying on the floor. The clip was a few inches away from Stone's leg. Jason crawled and got up to his leg. He gripped it when Stone made to run in and stylishly dragged the clip as well as sand and dirt into his fist."Don't go in, we are not done yet." He said. Stone kicked away his grip and ran into his office while he lowered his face to the ground so tired and relieved.***********It began to display on the screen but a scene he wasn't shown then, popped up first. It turned out the clip was shortened before. Dark under the tunnel was a man, who pulled the trigger and shot the same time Jason had shot. The plan was to make a vid
The harshness of the light had him blinking, Xavier darted his weak eyes to see a white bedsheet up above his chest. Wide-eyed, he shifted and yanked it off him. An IV needle was stuck into his wrist... And then he finally realised he was on a hospital bed in a ward. His lid lowered and he saw a head resting beside the bed. He blinked several times, trying to remember what happened before now until Bethany raised her face and drifted into a gentle smile. "You are awake." She yawned and leaned forward while he moved backwards. He shut his eyes and exhaled. "How long have I been here?""A night.""A night... and you didn't sleep here, did you?" He said this lowering his legs to the floor. Bethany ignored the question, of course, she slept. She stood up to leave and call a doctor when he gripped her hand. "Who brought me here?"She scratched her nape nervously, attempting to find words to reply. "Your brother did..." He loosened his grip, unsure of the emotions that ran through him,
Jason made his way across the room, his eyes shooting lasers. Some men ran inside to stop him but got shot before they could even get to him. Where is Stacy? "Matteo?" She looked into his eyes, unsure of what to feel. Happy? Or Scared? She leaned back to the wall, her gaze on the floor. He watched how her countenance changed and scoffed. Then his eyes moved from her face to her injured spots including her sole. He blinked and loomed over her, carrying her in a bridal style. "Oh." She mouthed and nervously tilted her face to Matteo whose face was strangely calm. "Hold my neck, so you won't fall." She bobbed her head and off they went.****************A man groaned and rolled off the ground. Stone's men backed away as they saw the man lying motionless, wondering if he was dead. They lifted their faces to see Blaze and other men behind her. She smirked and cracked her knuckles. "Guys, let's kick their ass'es." She told them, charging toward Stone's men with Matteo's men.Blaze launche
