Marve dropped the call and placed the phone on the table when a thick but slightly hoarse voice called out to him. “Marve, what’s the problem?” Xavier asked. “Huhh, it’s the kid Marcus, says he has a little problem with the plan but he’s going to take care of it,” Marve answered. “Little or no little, a problem remains a problem, he better fix it or he gets fixed!” Xavier let out as he walked into a room, followed by Marve and two other men in black. It was a room deprived of sunlight with a foggy atmosphere due to the number of cigarettes that had been smoked in the room. Xavier went directly to his table, took a Cuba cigar and lit it to smoke as he walked towards Marve. “What did he say was the problem?” Xavier asked Marve. “He didn’t give me full details but I know he said something about Lexi” Marve said. “You mean the wannabe painter?” One of Xavier’s new recruit blurt out jokingly as he laughed. The words “wannabe painter” struck a nerve in Xavier, he looked at him

The head of security hurried over to the east wing as soon as he got radioed. On getting to the inventory room, he met with the staff who radioed him looking distressed and out of place. “What is the issue here?” the head security asked. “Sammy was supposed to come do the inventory a couple of hours ago but he's been nowhere to be found,” he said frantically. “Well did you radio him or check the quarters?” the head security asked. “I did sir but there was no response, he wasn't found in the quarters either,” he answered. The head security took a few steps back, brought out his phone and made a call. “I am heading to the media room now, pull up the CCTV for me,” the head security said. He turned to the other guy who was still looking around with his flashlight. “Look around, see if you can find anything,” the head security said before leaving for the media room. The head security and other team members finally got to the media room and gathered around the bank of monitor

I was still in shock of what could be going through Frederick’s mind or if he already found out what I was trying to hide when he finally broke the cold silence. “Are you always this careless? You could have cut yourself by picking that up.” Frederick said, moving my hand away from the turner that had the broken pieces of the glass bowl right beside it. “Huhh,” I said, still out of thoughts. Frederick stood, grabbed some paper towels and used it to collect the broken glasses from the floor. “Hey! Are you okay?…. Why are your thoughts all over the place?” Frederick asked, worried. I finally came back to myself and realized what had happened. Here I was thinking he was trying to get information about my meeting with Marcus when all he was trying to do was keep me out of harm's way. “I'm sorry, I got lost for a moment there,” I said as I quickly stood as well and pulled off my apron onto the chair. I adjusted my top and slid my hair to the back of my ears to keep them in pla

Julian and Frederick finally got to the empty supply room and met the head of security along with other men in black there. “Where is Sammy?” Julian asked immediately, trying to calm down from walking too fast. The head security led Julian into the supply room and removing the pile of thick thapoline cover, uncovered Sammy’s lifeless body. Julian’s suspicions became right as his hand went straight to cover his mouth out of shock. “We found him dead and covered with this here,” the head security said pointing to the thick white cover. Julian went closer and bent right beside it, his eyes searching through to note anything. “I think the cause of death was a stab to the chest but the weapon seems not to be found anywhere around here sir,” the head security said. “Any idea the last person he spoke with before coming here?” Frederick asked. “He was supposed to check the inventory before he was claimed missing. I'll have to question every single staff sir,” the head security said.

CHAPTER TWELVE I stood there, dumbfounded and trying to piece together why I had to go with Julian to the trade off when I saw only the back of Julian leaving my room and shutting the door. I found my way to the stool right by my canvas and sat, dazed, and realized what unveiled in each moment I spent locked up here. This wasn't going to end, Julian said it would but I think I know now that it actually never ends. My mind wondered what next would happen if I scaled through this. Now I was beginning to consider Marcus’s plan about escaping this place. It wasn't even up to 10 minutes Julian left my room, I heard another knock. I suddenly stood, a part of me hoping it was Marcus so we could go ahead with his plan. “Marcus?” I said hastily. The door opened up and it was not Marcus but one of Julian’s men. I let out a deep sigh, turned and tried to get back to my seat when he said. “I was told to bring you with me ma’am” he said sturdily, not moving an inch from the entrance.

CHAPTER THIRTEENMarcus saw that I was led into Julian’s study and sensed that something was wrong. He waited until the man who brought me came out of the study and quickly approached him. “Hey” Marcus called out, signaling him to come closer.The man came closer to Marcus, skeptical of being caught not at his position. “What's going on? Why was she taken in to the study?” Marcus asked curiously. “I don't really know anything, I was only ordered to bring her to the study” he said. Marcus knew this information wasn't quite enough and still looking around his surroundings, he pressured him for more information. “Who gave the order?” Marcus asked. “Mr Julian gave the order, that's all I know” he said.“C’mon, that can't possibly be all you know. There must have been a reason to have brought her there. See, in a place like this, all we've got is ourselves, so sharing things like this would help us stand firm together don't you think?” Marcus said cunning

*THE D-DAY*I heard the door to Julian’s room where I stayed opened, a part of me was happy that I had taken a break from painting a beautiful yet difficult art but another part of me was unhappy and angry that my life was about to be put in danger because of some mafia business that I had no idea about. It was Frederick who came in, holding a sun dress hung on a single cloth hanger. He approached me with a charismatic smile, he always gave off a certain kind of energy whenever he was around, he was more of the opposite of Julian. “I don’t know if it’s me or does Julian not have a good eye for women’s clothing?” Frederick said as he handed over to me the sun dress with a funny face, I just couldn’t help but smile. “I bet Julian doesn’t have a good eye for anything,” I said smiling as I collected the dress from Frederick. “This is what I am to wear today?” I asked. “Yeap, that’s what the boss wants,” Frederick said as he reached out for the chair by the table, pulled it closer and

While Xavier’s men were on their way back to the car after confirming the money, Marve put down his binoculars and turned to Xavier from the passenger seat. “There is no sign of the kid Marcus in their convoy, he was supposed to give us a signal if he had the painter way before now. I only saw a lady in the car with Julian, I think she could be the painter,” Marve reported to Xavier. Xavier grunted in anger and slammed his laptop shut.“I just knew that kid was up to no good…… He’s going to pay for this. Find his father and bring him to me,” Xavier ordered Marve.“Give me that!” Xavier said out of anger and collected the binoculars to take a look as well. “Yes boss,” Marve answered and passed the binoculars to Xavier who then took a look and saw me at back seat, right before we drove out. “That’s my beloved alright….. I wonder what made Julian bring her out here to be snatched. At least saves us the trouble and risks of taking her from his domain,” Xavier said pleased. “But she’s

Julian and Frederick finally arrived at Marve’s place and luckily they met with Marve but unluckily not with me.“What do you mean she is no longer here?” Julian asked. “I am sorry Julian, she left a couple of hours ago. She didn't want us to let you know she was with us” Marve said.“I understand…..Where is she now?” Julian asked.“To be honest, I have no idea but she mentioned she was going to return to you when she had cleared her head” Marve said.“There is a chance she might be back at the residence” Fredrick said.“We must have missed ourselves while coming” Julian said and headed back into the car, followed by Frederick.******************************************I was not back at the residence yet as I was still trying to find myself so I had lodged in a motel. I took a cold bath and was finally prepared to head back to the residence and figure things out with Julian instead of running away.

Mr Blackwood is seen in his lodge smoking his cigar as Marcus knocked and came inside.“You called for me sir” Marcus said. “Are you ready for this task I have for you?” Mr Blackwood asked. “I am ready for any kind of task given sir” Marcus said.“I want you to kidnap Lexi, can you do that?” Mr Blackwood asked. “Yes sir, I can” Marcus said with a straight face. “Good…..have her here latest by tomorrow noon” Mr Blackwood said.“Yes sir” Marcus said and took his leave. Immediately Marcus left the room, Mr Blackwood’s personal man who had been doing his biddings from the onset came out from the shadows.“Kidnap David and bring him here quietly” Mr Blackwood ordered.“Yes sir” the man said and exited the room as well. *******************************************“Still haven't spoken to her?” aunt Melda asked Julian.“No, she has not been picking my calls and I don't even know where she is or could be” Julian said as he was frustrated with the whole thing.“I am truly sorry Julian, I

Aunt Melda wiped Julian’s tears and carried him as she tried to make him calm down from crying. “Where are your parents?” Aunt Melda asked but there was no response from Julian as he had calmed down now and was comfortable being in her arms.“Don’t you want to tell me? Where is your mom kiddo?” Aunt Melda asked. “Ish shcream” Julian mumbled.“Ice cream? You want ice cream?” Aunt Melda asked.Julian nodded his head in agreement.“Okay then, let’s go get ice cream…… I just hope your parents would be able to return right on time. Aunt Melda carried Julian and went into her car as her driver drove them to a nice and fancy ice cream shop and Julian had his fill.

Yea I’m good, I’m glad I came around” I said.“Okay that’s good….. I actually called to tell you that aunt Melda will be staying with us for a couple of days” Julian said.“Oh wow, that’s good to know…..do you think she’d be happy to meet me?” I asked.“Yeah….she really can’t wait to meet you” Julian said.“Really?, it would also be nice to meet her based on the fact that she’s nothing like your father” I said.“If anyone wants to take down my father badly, it would be her………I’ll come pick you up when you are ready so let know me alright?” Julian said.“Sure, I love you” I said.“I love you too” Julian said.It was late in the evening and Julian came and picked me up as we headed back home.

There is a high chance he is repeating history again since the previous one failed” detective Garrett said.“I apologize to everyone here, my father has caused you all so much pain and hurt and I feel devastated and ashamed to be called his son” Julian apologized. “It’s not your fault to have been born to such a monster” Marve said.“What is the next thing to do now?” Frederick asked.“Mr Blackwood has been off

David drove for a while and finally got to his apartment as he carried me in right after he knocked and his wife opened the door for him.He carried me to one of the spare room and laid me down on the bed as I was completely asleep. “What is going on? Who is this little girl?” his wife asked.“No one you should be bothered about” David said as he tucked me in. “What do you mean someone I shouldn’t be bothered about? What are you up to now David?” His wife asked.Just then, Marcus came into the room and saw me sleeping on the bed and was surprised that a stranger was in his home.“Dad?….who is this?” Marcus asked.“I need you to keep your mouth sealed and not a word to anyone” David ignored Marcus’s question and said to his wife.David immediately left the house and left his wife and son surprised as she called out to him.“David!” She called out but David didn’t answer and got into his car, headed back to Mr Blackwood’s residence without me or the Elysium. *************************

My mom was already done with the painting she had painted and hidden clues in it. “Let’s call it…….Elysium, symbolizing happiness and bliss” my dad said. My mom nodded in agreement as she wrote the word “Elysium” at the base of the painting. “I hope Lexi will find the happiness she truly deserves” my mom said and dropped her paint brush.Just then, there was a knock on the door right after as my dad and mom looked at each other. They suspected who it could be at that time so they went silent and said no word or responded to the door. Suddenly there was a loud bang and the door flung open as David and the aide walked in. “Sorry, we had to let ourselves in. It’s not nice to keep your guests waiting outside without a response, don’t you think,” David said as he walked in.“You weren’t invited……What do you want?” My dad asked.“I think you know what I want, I wouldn’t want to waste my time” David said.“We have no idea what you want, we have no business holding whatever it is you bel
