March 10, 1991
The salty breeze is evident as the crystal sliding door was half open letting the wind in. The white curtains that reached the floor flailed in all its glory against the iridescent teal waves on the background kissing the white shoreline. A white pergola liven up the porch with a combination of blue and green sea gradients for the see through cloths draping around it. Liz lied on a white swing bed attached to it. The sky blue bed cushion matches the white with yellow starfish pattern and midnight blue throw pillows spread around it. Her hair was loosely braided to the side and she wore this mint green poncho over her white maxi dress and a pair of flipflops.Quinn was fast asleep, cuddled next to her right arm. While the other hand clinged to a book she was reading to past the time. Every time she does that she feels like she visits another world without the need of packing a suitcase, moving her feet, riding a cab, sail thr
Liz was still shaking next to her husband and was half aware of herself. When he catched her she shoved him away but pulls him closer for a hug anyway. She needed him after all."I can't believe I tried to kill my own son. I don't deserve to be a mother. That's just unforgivable."Seeing his wife devastated he tried to get Quinn for the mean time until she calms down but she held to him even tighter."No you are not taking me son anywhere but here beside me. He stays with me, right hun?" Liz combs through the hair of the still asleep Quinn. She was just thankful that even in such commotions he was still safe in his slumber. Cole can only kiss his wife's forehead to console her.When Liz was finally aware and what happened sinked in she heard muffled sobs from Cole. Apart from seeing him kill in cold blood for the first time, it was also a first to see him this vulnerable. She needed to come c
"The prodigal son indeed. I should thank Liz here for convincing you to pay a visit." Benjamin turned around welcoming Cole to their hide out. "Mom and dad gladly joined the reunion too."Contrary to how he described it Liz, Margarette and Midas were all tied in various posts. Each with a different kind of torture method. Liz was chained at the center post on top of a plank with a large fiberglass saltwater tank and a swimming bull shark below it. One press of the button and she becomes its lunch. Yes, he is twisted like that.Midas was on the far left side post, had his arms forcefully stretched out. Metal bars with holes only fit for each fingers lock in place that were on standby in each side. Tightening it depending on how Cole answers. With the purpose of crushing it eventually. Margarette on the other hand has a drill moving closer to her still functioning eye. Ready to make her totally blind this time.
"Are you not going to change your mind Toby?" Benjamin was seated across Toby with women coiling up to him like snakes. He puffed his cigarette before throwing in his cards on the table. "Your turn."Toby smirks while Axle was sitting on the armrest beside him. Wearing this scandalous little black dress that hugged her body tightly. A plunging v neckline and her legs were crossed as she puffs a smoke too. Her scarlet red nails even added to the temptation that she is. Up until now Benjamin is still clueless about her cover. Cole was out of the picture and she surely has immunity when it comes to Toby."Do you want me to Uncle Ben? or should I say father now? Either way that would be bad news for you. Killing me would ony speed up your death sentence am I right?""How much do you want?" One woman cups his face and gives him a quick smooch. Then he snaps his fingers and a man takes out his checkbook pronto. The room was we
The airport was busy as usual with passengers who just landed in and others off to fly frequented the lobby. Luggages circled the conveyor and so was some pushed around in carts. Cabs in a long line outside while some are just about to get in for a drop off. Private cars and motorcycle even added to the jammed traffic."I hope we get moving soon," Liz complains at the back seat though she is highly unrecognizable. She pulls down her black shades to take a peak at the long trail of cars ahead. Her staple red hed is replaced by a black bob cut wig. Lips as red as cherry while she pop the bubble of the gum she was chewing. Wearing a custard v neck line crochet top and a black leather pencil skirt. Finished off by thin fishnet stockings and scrunch knee high boots. Screaming hooker in every angle. "My customer is waiting on me like thirty minutes ago, " she fishes a bill in between her cleavage and hands it to the driver, "do you know any shortcuts, mister?" T
April of 1992" You may now kiss the bride. "The judge's words echoed in an almost empty courtroom. It was an intimate wedding. Just two people is enough to bare witness. Toby, the groom is smiling from ear to ear.Cozy in his white button-down pullover shirt, tucked in a dark grey trouser. He managed to wear a black belt around it and a pair of decent pair leather shoes. His auburn hair is slightly pulled back so that his gentle eyes can keep staring at his bride. As he silently mouthed, 'Satisfied now? you agreed to this, look like it.' then sarcastically smiled.While Axle, his bride, gave him a look and mimed the words 'I'll kill you if you don't stop' in response then grabbed him by the collar and smacked his lips with hers.Still acting ragged in the midst of wearing her knee-length, flowy champagne off-shoulder dress and nude heels. Her jet black beach waves are tamed by a p
"Nick talk to me please. What happened? You just started acting strangely after the wedding. I thought we were already through this. Didn't you say you love me and our son. Well sons actually."Cole stopped throwing his clothes into an open luggage. Then glares at his wife with disgust. "Aren't you just being desperate Liz? That was a year ago, people change so get over it." Then he resumed packing."Dad! Quinn come with you." It was their two year old son clinging on his legs. Cole kicks him on the side that's when Liz lost it"How dare you hurt my son." She picks up Quinn and puts him on his crib."Mama! Dad!" Quinn started crying when he heard his mom raise her voice."Shhh baby it's okay daddy is just going to take a vacation. We are not fighting."Cole scowls in disagreement. "Don't lie to him just because he can't understand yet. Take it from me a
Nine months later...February 28, 1993"Cole put the fucking gun away from my face!"He just cocked his head to the right as he smirks, amused."'Headline! Benjamin Blaine dead on arrival after heroically taking the bullet for his son, on an ambush attack in his very own home. Perpetrators have escaped leaving the sole survivor almost beaten to death and is still under observation for full recovery. ' That seems a pretty legit cover up for murder' don't you think dad? It's genius.""You're no genius, your a load of crap pretending to be my son. "He shot his father's left leg, poor Ben groaning in agony."That's why you picked Toby over me? That trash! I could still remember how you used that leg to kick the living shit out of me, when I can't shoot right. "Then he shot his right hand. His father still acting tough though his wounds are pretty serious. "That hand who cared and favored Toby i
"Excuse me Mr. Blaine but this was delivered for you this morning."A tawny guy with dreadlocks handed him a sealed black portfolio. He flipped it back to check for any address or information but there's none- just his name pasted on it in silver ink. Unwinding the wire sealing the portfolio, he took out a flash drive and a note.'Twenty five years and you never changed. Still cunning as always, burying your lies under the rag. Dead men tell no tales is it? What if one of corpses you got rid of, rise from the grave and hunt you down? Come to the old apartment, you fairly remember it do you? 'Cause I do. Just incase you forget I'll have your memories refreshed.'Cole noticed his hands were sweating hard, he never felt so threatened in ages. After reading that note, he then shifted his gaze to the silver flashdrive on his palm with a label 'open me' and a skull symbol after that.
Hailey was still in a daze as she wobbles trying to stand up and falls over anyway. She hears Quinn screaming as he tried to push her down to stay seated."Calm your pussy Queenie. How many times to I have to tell you I'm fine.""How can I calm down when that woman is on her way here because you made mess in my club. This club is worth more than millions. I had to enslave myself under her command for so many years just to make up for this fine spot."She just rolled her eyes and went back to sleep as if he was nothing to her. Quinn shakes her but it was a futile effort since she was already snoring."What is this Quinn? How did Hailey get in here? Do you want to get busted and hug a jail cell instead of your women lap dohs juat foe a minor? A fucking minor which he can discipline any moment as expected of you because you were older." Alexis was fuming with anger as he saw him still shaking Hailey who hav
Hedley is still feeling the pain of his unrequited love and his brother's teasing. He decided to take a short vacation. But before the he paid a visit to their mom's grave first."How are you doing there Mom? I hope you can no longer feel the pain that dad has given you when you were alive. Me it's nothing new I'm still a martyr. It's been so long since I came to visit. I wasn't even able to tell you that Quinn came back from the dead. Though I think you already knew."He sat by the grass as he occasionally stared at her gravestone. He can still vividly remember her as if it was just yesterday. Her room smelled with a mixture of inks and flowers and newly published books. He would also sneak in from time to time in her mini-library at home to read her works. The main reason why he developed early. How he knew their dad was cheating on her so many times that he lost count."I dreamed about our family last night. I instantly kne
During down time Quinn visits a few clubs under his jurisdiction. Cheking out the goods and even the woman themselves. He surely takes after his father's charisma. Not that he would like to protest against it but he thinks he was better.While he was spreading his arms on a white couch enjoying the flickering strobe lights in blue and purple. He almost choke on the champagne he was sipping when one hot woman strut to step in between his legs. Her pointy red stilletos almost poked his crotch."Easy there tiger." His eyes literally undressed her. Starting from her long and slender legs up to her scrumptious thighs.He gulped frequently as he goes up seeing her sequened black tube dress. Hugging her body just right showing her curves. But his perverted smiles faded quickly when he saw who it was."Minors are not allowed in this place. Go wash someone's car better yet wash mine. I'll give you a huge tip kid.
"It was fancy meeting you again bro. I have to go now, dad's business can't run on itself. It was supposed to be your job but you ran off, though I'm not holding it against you. " He tapped Toby's back and left.Just a short while the doctor went out of the emergency room. Uncovering the mask off his mouth and peeled off the synthetic gloves from his hands. While Toby was leaning right next to the wall looking down, anxiously waiting. "Mr. Ragewarden." He looked up and stood properly. " Yes doc? how's my wife and daughter?"The doctor smiled. " Your daughter is a healthy baby but..." then his facial expression changed as he took off his glasses this time and hook it to his white coat's breast pocket."She didn't make it. We did our best, to revive her but it was futile. I'm sorry Mr. Ragewarden but your wife is dead. You can see your daughter in the nursery later."It felt like a bomb blaste
