The motion sensor placed above the prison door buzzed as it was pulled open. Benjamin, along with a guard walked in. In the visitor chair, Eleanor sat, her hands arranged on the table in front of her as she watched her son approach. After sitting him down and giving him a brief amount of time, the guard moved away to the furthest corner of the room and waited.

“What are you doing here, mother?” Benjamin asked with a sigh. His expression looked disheveled and almost unnatural. Seeing this, Eleanor felt the strings of her heart being tugged on painfully. All she ever wanted was to secure her son’s future, yet, here they were, locked behind bars and awaiting judgment.

“How are you, Benjamin?” She asked as her eyes fluttered and glossed over. No matter how heartless she may seem, no one was heartless towards their very own family and no mother could stand seeing her son in cuffs and branded as a criminal. It was just too emotionally wrecking.

“How do you expect me to be?!” Benjamin was fu

    Fresh screams of agony came from Anthony as Alexandra matched down on his hand with her heels. At some point she was sure she had heard a crunching sound come from below, but it was not like she cared, he at least deserved this much.“Now listen,” Alexandra began and leaned down, increasing the weight on Anthony’s already injured palm and earn another round of screams from him. “This is how it is going to go… hey, hey, shut up.” She instructed and brought her index finger to rest against her red glossed lips. Only when Anthony seemed to have lessened his noise making did she continue. “Now, this is how it is going to go; I’m going to take my foot off your hand and you’re going to walk out of here like nothing ever happened and you will never disturb Quinn again. And if you as much as think of harming me the moment I set you free…” she flicked her finger in the direction above his head. “That right there my friend is a CCTV and once I send the footage of all that has transpired here do

    “Alexandra, thanks once again.” Quinn said and gently bowed her head while Alexandra waved back at her from her car. She had finished her appointment with Madam Williams, picked out several dresses and had quality tea time in the process.All in all, she was satisfied and convinced that she could now go back to work without unwanted thoughts roaming her mind.She waved one final time to Quinn before slipping into the driver’s seat of her vehicle. Straight back to her office she drove. Along the way, Alexandra felt relaxed, but not relaxed enough.

    The sun had gone down about a few hours ago. Alexandra now felt more calm as she sat down in the sand with her legs pulled close to her chest, Darius sat beside her and they both continued to stare at the ocean, throwing in small talks here and there and surprisingly laughing to jokes brought up by one another.It was like they had known each other more than four months, more like old high school class mates that were holding their reunion and the only thing that had been missing in their midst was chilled drinks and snacks to munch on while chatting away.Alexandra had just finished laughing to one of Darius’s dad jokes that she weirdly found funny when she remember the conversation they had shared while sharing her snacks back at the café close to her company. She didn’t know if it was the right time to speak of it, but was still curios.“So, how’s that dream of yours coming along?” She asked while tucking her hair behind her ear as the breeze consistently pushed it around.Darius t

    Alexandra was an enigma.That much was clear to Darius. She was like a spirited away ghost that didn’t want anybody’s help in carrying out its vengeance. Scary at times but passionate and he respected that and some part of him also wished he had the type of passion and burning fire she did. Maybe then he’d have been able to see to it that his mother was brought to justice.Darius admired that about her and couldn’t help replaying the conversation they had held both now and the previous night as he typed in his door’s pass code and stepped in. As the security machine beeped behind him, the male took notice of the fact that there was another shoe at the door. He narrowed his eyes and stepped forward.“Quinn?” He called out and almost immediately a response came from the kitchen.“Yeah? You back?” The voice of his best friend was followed by the sound of culinary. She stepped out of the kitchen as Darius began pulling off his shoes. “You’re back early.” She eyed him. “Why?”“Am I not all

    It was dark, void and cold. Darius stirred in his bed, grunting in the process as his nightmare played out.Once again, he was back in his mother’s rented apartment Eleven years ago. As usual, the dream played out like always. He argued with his mother, blamed his father and his mistress for him and his mother’s unfortunate predicament and slammed the door shut in her face, and yet again, regret filled him because of his once foolish actions.Night came as fast as it did in the real world and while all this happened, Darius was well aware, he just couldn’t do anything, fight back or speak the words he actually wanted to say. Unlike the him of eleven years ago, this version of him was different. He hadn’t stopped blaming his father for their unfortunate circumstance cause in reality he was the one whom had put them in that very position. More or less he was responsible for what had happened to Angelina. If only he had kept his heart and eyes glued on the beautiful woman, maybe then he

Busy and occupied by work, Alexandra had barely noticed the days going by.Now seated in the back of her moving vehicle, the blonde quietly watched the buildings go by as they drove towards Lucien’s private marina.Her quiet serenity was interrupted the moment Michael spoke from the front seat. “Ms. Grey, could you please take a look at this?” He requested and passed his usual tablet to her.Alexandra hesitated before collecting it. It hadn’t been more than a week and a half since the accident yet he was already up and moving about like nothing had happened. When the doctors had told her that he was well and okay she hadn’t expect him to be ‘this’ well and okay.What was he, the freaking transformers?Alexandra shook her head and swiped the tablet open. She swiped her finger across the screen while looking at the document shown to her by Michael. It was one of the usual. Doubled taxes, increase in stocks and company inco

    Alexandra was startled. She glanced at the roll of bowing employee with slightly widened eyes before glancing back in the direction of Lucien, their employer. The expression on his face told her he saw nothing wrong in the way his employees had welcomed her. But she did.Madam? She wasn’t their madam and there was no need for them to welcome her in such a grand style.The blonde glanced back at Lucien once more, waiting for him to say something before she did, but alas he simply remained quiet and returned her stare like this was an everyday occurrence. She sighed and internally groaned because of Lucien off-ish attitude nowadays. She wasn’t taking too likely to it and would make sure to inform him of this sometime during their sail. Until then, she needed to take care of this little mishap.She turned her attention back to the employees who were still bowing their heads and called out. “I appreciate all the effort every single one of you put into welcoming me, but I’d rather you not

She looked around slowly as if giving herself a moment to reflect upon how things have changed since then.Five years ago, when she had lost everyone she loved and was shattered to the core after her divorce with Lucien, Alexandra thought her life would never be same again.

He was pacing around the living room for a while until he noticed Alexandra and quickly rushed to meet her."Alexa... Where were you?" He asked, his voice dripping with concern and worry.Alexandra softly sighed out. "Calm down, Darius." She said while gently stroking his hair. "I'm fine. I just had to take care of something little.""What?""I found out how Eleanor knew about my pregnancy.

    Six out of seven of those days bad gone by. Eleanor had been unusually quiet. One would have almost thought that she bailed and ran away.But Alexandra knew better than that. She knew that the woman who had raised her in disguise as the perfect grandmother was more of a deadly predator than her sins gave her credit for.In other words, she isn't one to tuck her tail between her legs and run away. It was just a matter of time until she acted.'A matter of time...' Alexandra pondered those last few words as she watched as the last fragments of oranges, reds and yellows faded into a dark gray. The sunset had gone, and the blanket of night began to cover the world in the darkness of its shadow.After a while, she pulled her gaze away and sighed, focusing on the pile of work that was on her table.Because of Darius's over protectiveness, she had worked less in the last few days and barely ever came to the company. Today, she had escaped by miracle- miracle meaning that she had made more th

She allowed the paper drop to the floor after awhile as her thoughts became more loud than the sound of her heart beat.How was it possible? How could Eleanor have found out that she was pregnant?Alexandra thought, after all she had done everything in her power to make sure that Eleanor did not find out. To make sure that the news of her being pregnant did not reach the ears of any of her foe. Yet, here she was, hyperventilating over the fact that Eleanor had learnt of her child's existence while breathing like some dying cow.'Calm down, Alexandra.' she tried to calm herself as soon as she noticed how ragged her breathing was becoming.She found her way back to her bed and sag down, controlling her breathing and thoughts together.
