PRESENTThe sound from his brogue shoes could be heard as he walked stylishly into the police department, accompanied by two of his men. Some of the female police officers stared at him as he walked in well dressed in a black suit. The smell of his Cologne was perceived by everyone he walked past and they couldn't help but turn to look at him. The sun glasses he wore fitted his looks and the girls couldn't help but wink at him. He waved at some of them as he walked by and they giggled.No doubt he was popular here at the CPD. This was not his first time being invited by the inspector for questioning. Every time a crime occurs in the city, he is interrogated several times.Being amongst the richest and one of the most famous youth in the whole of Chimalpa, his wealth had always been questioned by the state. A lot of people knew him as the leader of the most notorious gang in the city but there was no proof linking him to the gang. He was into animal farming, Fast foods and car rentals,
PRESENT "That manager is pissing me off right now," he said angrily as he walked into the foyer. " How did it go?" Spider asked as he walked towards him "I want you to assemble the boys together at the SMR, be fast about it," he said as he walked away. Not long, they gathered together at the SMR waiting for him. He walked in and sat in the middle of the boys and began the conversation. "The manager confessed my name to the police that I was behind the robbery at the bank" he broke the news "What!!" They all exclaimed "He's getting on my nerves and I need to get rid of him as soon as possible, I guess I was too lenient not to have gotten rid of him since he abridged the deal," Eden continued "Now what do you suggest we do?" Miguel asked "We're striking tonight.. I want him to taste my venom.. " He replied "But we have no information about him because we never came in contact with him. He sent his errand boy to deliver to us," Spider said "Eagle eyes, can you hack into th
He froze at her words. He stopped for a moment and knelt before her. "Tell me more," he urged as he stared intently at her face "I... Can vividly recall how I said those words to a little boy a longtime ago. Those were my favorite words back then while I was still a whore, I said words to excuse myself from the different crimes I committed and on this very day, I was having fun with one of my clients called Derrick when his step son walked in on us and Derrick inflicted a wound on the boy. I helped in treating his wounds and I said those words to him" .. Gloriana said slowly as she went down memory lane. "You.. You're... That... Oh no!!" He exclaimed as he hit his forehead twice with his palm. "Do you know each other?" Mr Sydney asked, looking at them in surprise "Yes.. You're so grown now…" She said in tears as she looked at Eden who was kneeling before her "And you've aged too by the years.." He said emotionally. He couldn't believe this was happening right now. What if h
"I can't connect to the boss, seems like they've been ambushed," eagle eyes said as he typed a few words into his laptop. "What?!! Damn it!! " Spider cursed under his breath "Have you tried accessing their location again? " Miguel asked as he stood behind Eagle eyes. " I can't seem to gain access into their location anymore but seems like they've been attacked. I heard an unfamiliar voice while trying to connect with him again, " eagle eyes replied "Have you tried reaching Pedri and the others? " Spider asked again " Their phones aint connecting, "Miguel replied " I need the location. We're hitting the streets! " Spider said ardently. ** He hid behind the sofa as a bullet was fired at him. He ran with his heads down as the bullet sprayed behind the sofa. One of the men tried to grab him but he ducked and grabbed him by the neck. A bullet was fired at him again and he used the man as a shield. The bullet sprayed on the Man's body and he abandoned the body and continued to ru
As he ran into the house, he saw a lot of bodies on the floor with bloodstains on the walls and sofas. Most of the men on the floor were lying face down. He roamed his eyes carefully on the bodies as he walked around the house. The sound of the police siren was getting closer and he knew there was no way he could waste anymore time. Just then, his eyes fell on Cole's body which was resting behind a sofa. His eyes were wide open with his suits battered with blood. Eden felt a sharp pain in his heart as he saw Cole, but this wasn't the time to be emotional, he thought as he raised Cole from the floor and placed him on his shoulders. "Boss!!" He heard Pedri call as he made his way out of the house. "What are you doing?!! I told you to stay in the car!!" He yelled as he ran out of the house to find Pedri waiting for him outside. "I couldn't stay back!! It's my duty to keep you safe!" Pedri shouted as they both ran out to the car. "Boss, Eagle eyes have studied the area carefully,
The next morning, he woke up as early as possible to take a cold shower. Afterwards, he wore a black hood over a black pair of trousers before walking out of his room. As he walked down the stairs leading to the foyer, some of the boys at the foyer stood up to greet him. "Xabi, send me Spider and Pedri immediately. Tell them to meet me in the torture room" he said to them and turned to walk away. "Boss!" Xabi called and he stopped at once. "What is it?" He asked turning to face Xabi "Pedri is already in the torture room with Miguel. He left a message saying you should join them when you're up," Xabi replied. He kept silent and a wry smile formed on his lips. Those two are the craziest he'd ever come across, he thought as he turned to walk away. He climb up to the second floor of the building where the torture room was located. As he got closer to the room which was right inside a small passage, he heard voices and cries coming out of the room. He moved towards the door i
He stood behind Eagle eyes in the small work room as eagle eyes punched a few words into his laptop."They're moving south.. " Eagle eyes said as he adjusted his glasses"South.. " Eden muttered as he looked into the laptop again. "She's heading to the SACT Headquarters," he added."Yeah I guess so too, but the manager couldn't have been seeking asylum at the headquarters," eagle eyes said again."No I don't think so, my main concern is the bug detectors at the headquarters, they might be able to detect the bug when she gets there," he said, worriedly.Eagles eyes kept silent and continued typing. "You're right, she's moving to the headquarters," he said after a few seconds"Damn! " He cursed as he stood right up and scratched his head."Let's wait for a few moments then, to see what she's up to, " eagle eyes said as he relaxed his back on his chair with his arms akimbo.**She walked into the SACT Headquarters with two SACT agents following behind her. The SACT is a special anti-crime
"How long is it going to take to get to San Rico? "He asked as they walked out of the mansion. The trio were all dressed differently. Eden wore a causal white T-shirt and a blue pair of jean trouser while Pedri and Miguel wore a black emirati thobe with a red woven scarf wrapped around their necks. They all wore sunglasses to shade their eyes from the sun which was beginning to heat up a bit. "It's going to take up to 1hour 30minutes ride. The road linking Eibar and San Rico is quite rough, "Miguel replied as they stopped in front of the black Ford endeavor packed neatly in the yard. "Very well then, let's move, "Eden said as he entered the car. Miguel and Pedri sat behind at the passengers seat while Eden sat in the driver's seat. "So I'm gonna be your driver today uh? " He asked with a chuckle and they both laughed."Yeah... You're the ghost rider, "Pedri remarked with laughter and they all laughed again before moving out. "How is it going over there? Is she moving out alread
10 YEARS LATER MAXIMUM SECURITY CAMP, JUAREZ The lights fluctuated and the sounds of his leather boots could be heard as he walked hastily through the hallway. Holding a tray of tea, he kept a straight face as he walked past the warders and the heavily armed men mounting in front of the cells on both sides of the hallway. He took a left turn where he could see a passageway holding up to three cells. Two heavily armed policemen could be seen patrolling along the passage which was as calm as a graveyard. He stopped in front of the cell with a number tag, G3. The sound of the steel gate could be heard as it opened wide and he walked into the cell slowly. She rose up from the bunker bed and heaved a sigh as she turned to face him. Her lips curved into a mischievous smile as she saw him holding the tray with his head bowed. "Gracias" she muttered with a smile as she took the tray from him and he turned to walk away immediately. She sat on the bed with the tray resting on her legs.
"Hey," Julius called as he walked over to him with a glass of fruit juice in his hand. "Hey man," Eden called as he munched his fries "You know, I'm proud of you" Julius said with a smile He nodded "Thank you for being a true friend" he said and Julius smiled. "You know, Smoke's perspective about you has changed a lot. He no longer sees you as an enemy to the state" he said "Oh, really?" Eden asked in surprise "Yeah. He sends his regards. He has been transferred away from chimalpa" he said and he nodded. "My mom sends her regards too. She's really happy right now that you did the right thing. She has spent a couple of months praying for you" he said and Eden smiled "I wish I could meet her one more time" he said and they both smiled. "Eden, my worst fear is life in prison for you. You know how many of those guys you've put in there and they're probably waiting for you right now" he said anxiously He gulped and exhaled. "I know and I've been thinking about that. I will have
He stood up from the bunker bed as he heard the sound of the steel gate opening. He has been placed in the city's minimum security prison before his transfer to a maximum security prison in Joanesco. He followed behind the warder as they walked through the hallway which holds different cell rooms. A few armed men in uniforms could be seen, mounting in front of the prison cells. He was led into a large field in the open where he could see a few inmates who were having a good time with their family and friends. Heavily armed Security personnels could be seen, patrolling around the facility which was fenced all round. His face beamed with smiles as he saw his family and friends waving over him at the field. As he walked closer to them, he could see Jessica running to meet him. "Eden!" She cried as she hugged him tightly. He held her closely for a while as everyone watched with smiles on their faces. He looked ahead of her and he could see His father and mother standing with his sist
There was tension in court as Nanny Cassie was called up into the witness dock. Grace shut her eyes for a moment as she saw the Nanny who was standing on the dock with her head bowed. After taking the oath, Tracy began to throw series of questions at her. "How long have you been working at the Smith's mansion?" She asked "For almost three decades" she stated "Great. Now as a Nanny who has witness a lot that has been ongoing in the Smith's mansion, tell us what you know about the abuse case and Mrs Grace's involvement in the murder of Mrs Rodrigo Eden's grandmother" she continued. "When Eden was taken back to the mansion, I began to notice a few unusual things about him. He sometimes refuses his meals, and he becomes emaciated. Sometimes, he would lock himself up in the room and I would hear him cry. One night, I saw Grace take him out of his room and she led him into the Master's room while he was away on a business trip. I tiptoed and leaned on the door listening to their voices
There was a pandemonium in the court premises as a lot of chants could be heard by the crowd who had gathered in front of the court gate, holding placards and banners as they continued to sing and chant in Spanish. "libertad al rey!!"(Freedom to the King) were the words that could be heard echoing around the whole place as the young men and women tried to gain entry into the court premises. The police and other security agencies could be seen, trying to enforce peace and order as they engaged the crowd who were causing a pandemonium over the premises with their chants. As the police van zoomed into the court premises, the chants increased and the gate of the Court was shut immediately while the crowd continued to chant outside. He was led out of the police van with Spider beside him. As he looked back at the crowd, he was filled with awe and his eyes welled up as he saw the crowd which was made up of mainly students from the states University chanting his name gracefully. The pres
Her wide full lips broke into a warm smile as she watched him being led into the visitors room with a policeman beside him. As he walked closer to her, his face beamed with a smile and he couldn’t explain the feelings of seeing her here again. “Hey,” she called with a smile as he took the seat facing her. He kept silent and stared at her face for a moment, with his face full of smiles “What?” She asked with a chuckle “You’re getting robust” he blurted and they both laughed. They kept silent for a moment with their eyes burning into each other. “I miss you Eden, i want you to come out of all this” she broke into tears immediately He heaved a sigh as his heart became heavy ``Jess, stop it” he said with emotions written all over his voice. She sniffed and wiped the tears off her face as she raised up her head to look at him. “You don’t really have to go to prison. You have an unborn child Eden, you have me” she cried and he looked away from her sadly. “I’m sorry for putting you
"Take a look at this shit dad! It's all over the papers!" He yelled as he dropped the newspaper on the table before his father "She deserves more than this!" Emilio yelled from his seat "Really? And you believe the trash your criminal son said back there? No! That's trash. You didn't even stand up for her! You didn't care about the family's name!" He continued "Enough Clement!" He yelled as he stood up angrily. "Your mother raped my seven years old son! How does it sound in your ears?!" He slammed. The door opened and Tracy walked into the house with Juliet. "What's going on?" She asked "He is taking sides with his mother," Emilio related "What! Are you dumb?!" Juliet barked as she walked towards him angrily "Put yourself in Eden's shoes. I don't think you can withstand any of those pains he went through" Tracy put in as she walked close to him. "You all can say trash for all I care. And you know what, I will be defending my mother in court!" He stated as he wore his glasses
"Overwhelmed by shock, I screamed and the men chased after me. As I ran out of the woods, I was hit by a car which happened to be Gabriel's car. He and his beloved wife Ella, rescued me that night from the hands of those men. I became obsessed with the thought that someone was after my life. And when Gabriel introduced me to the gang, I wasted no time in accepting his offer. I was only eight when I became a gangster. And since then, I've been consumed with vengeance and hoping one day I would have my vengeance on the people who killed grandma and all those who had hurt me" he related as he looked at Grace sternly. “And since then, they haven’t stopped coming for me. I was arrested at the airport because of i was setup by my step mother whi is sitting here with us in court” he spilled and the whole court was thrown into an uproar again. “Maxwell, standing beside me here can attest to the fact that he was offered a payment by mrs Smith to frame me up so i would end up behind bars” he
Police sirens could be heard all over the court premises and members of the press team could be seen filling the whole place with cameras and microphones. A TV reporter could be seen in front of the court house, reporting live on TV. Security personnels could also be seen, patrolling the premises as they tried to install order in the court. As he was led out of the police vehicle, he was covered by members of the press who were trying to get further information from him. He was led into the courtroom with Spider beside him. As he was led into the dock, he smiled wryly as he saw his family seated in the front row. His eyes caught with Grace who was sitting close to Clement. Their eyes met and she smirked. He gulped and looked away from her as he saw his mother walking into the courtroom hastily. He could see her walking past Grace towards Emilio who was seated at the end of the chair. "What do you think you are doing?" Grace asked from where she sat She waved her hair backwards an
