“Boss?”
“Yes, Larry, we are having a problem. Russia is now invading our country and selling our product.”
“Who informed you of this?”
“One of Mr. Smith's guys, those we recruited after we had Mr. Smith executed.”
“I don't want to hear that bloody name.”
“Sorry, Sir.”
“We're you able to get the product and test it?”
“Yes, we had it tested in that liquid, and it turned red, so it's first grade.”
Lucifer now stands up with his coat on three-quarters and his shiny pointed black shoes and gold rings on each finger. “So you are telling me, people, my fucking people, are selling my stuff back to us? I knew these bloody Russians couldn't be trusted from day one! Larry, that trip to Russia you will have to take now. There is a guy named Mr. X. He is running
New cars, suits, and high rollers as they pulled up with their car by their house, stepping out in their suits looking like a million dollars. Johnathan and Desmond go to the house as their father is impressed at how his kids have changed.Winter walks around in shorts and bare feet, preparing lunch for her family.Seeing her brothers leaves her standing with her mouth open, “wow, you look good. Is it that Job Joshua offers you?”What Job says her father. Johnathan says, “yes, buts it's importing and exporting goods.”“Wow, that's amazing. It must be really expensive goods.”Winters phone rings. It's Joshua, “hey, how are you?”“I am good, thanks,” she says. Joshua then says, “can we go out for Lunch? I booked this fantastic venue for us.”Excited that her boyfriend is taking her out, she completely forgets everything and everyone around her.Getting ready
The rain is pouring, and it's thundering. Joshua is lying awake, unable to sleep, staring at the clock; it's 12h03am. Walking to the fridge, he gets a text. This time of the morning, he thinks to himself, checking her text; it's a picture of her and Tiffany camping out. It seems like they are having a great timeHe replies thank you for spoiling my sister.Putting down his phone, he climbs under his bed and takes out a colt 9mm, and decides to clean his gun to take his mind off things. This is therapeutic. When he is done, he gets dressed, takes his bike, and heads over to the club for a few beers. While he is there, three guys, ample built, are picking on this guy who is dancing with his girlfriend. The guy becomes annoyed at them to tell them to pick on their own size. Joshua minding his own business drinking his beer, not in the mood for this, continues drinking his beer. Suddenly they bash the guy's face into a bar table; as the guy falls to the floor, they laugh a
Death is unpleasant, especially with Lucifer grinning at his victim. He is wearing his three-quarter Jacket with his leather gloves on. The victim's eyes widen as they have their final breath. It's dark and raining as the victim's blood runs to the drain; the streets are quiet. “Burn that body and ensure there is no evidence. I want to see the ashes of that remains!” Walking over to the car Lucifer gets on the phone. “Larry, how are you feeling?” “Good, thanks, boss.” “Did you leave the cabin?” “No, boss.” “Ok, wait there, the shadow hunters will still be around. I have someone to pick you up. You can recover here, but then you will have to go back, so you will have to return to Russia once you fully recover. We will capture those Shadow Hunters. I will have them hunted down,” says Lucifer, “there is no mercy. We will not be Intimidated by those cowards.” Lifts arrive for Larry's four SUVs. Philip approaches Lar
Walking down the road at 2 pm, passing his house, he notices how all the neighbors know each other. Women are standing by the fence, watching him and talking.This happens when you got a rich lifestyle but live low class. It's been hours since. Winter is at home. It turned out she was pregnant, making her lose consciousness as anemic.She has not told anyone she is pregnant, but she knew she had Joshua's love and support.Joshua now decides to call a resort and go away for the weekend alone. He books a venue behind the mountain where there is no cell signal. He was there last Summer. It was a great escape from reality.Heading to winter's house, he walks confidently he checks in on her. “I feel different not having you around,” he says. She smiles and cups his face, “we will be ok, baby.” He lets her go back to sleep. A car is spinning outside their gate, making a lot of noise. As he steps outside, there is a group of guys cheering
Laying on the ground, unable to breathe, a coldness overcomes her as she feels the bottom of her body completely numb. What's happening? A reaper leans over her as its long nails claws through her skin, and she experiences every bit of pain as its mouth is 20cm from her, sucking her life out, losing breath until she passes out. Waking up, it's 02h32am. She is sweating. Was this real? Why the sudden dreams? She walks to the kitchen, having an appetite and rubbing her stomach. This life inside of me growing changes her mood. Some days she wakes up happy, others sick and not in the mood for anyone.Picking up her phone, she sees no text on her phone as she scrolls through her Facebook and sees new updates from Tiffany and Andrea. Suddenly remembering earlier how Andrea hugged Joshua, she was standing from a distance. It looks like they were about to make out. His eyes were staring into hers. She tells herself she trusts him, but her instinct tells her otherwise. Scrolling to his
The screams from the dungeon. The torture is unbearable Lucifer’s torture methods unbearable, excruciating cries from deep down in the dungeon.“Larry, I am glad you are back,” Lucifer says, “are you ready to go back to Iraq?”“Yes, boss,” he says. “Boss, May I take my family with me?”“No, it's a business.”“I know you are coping with your recent loss, but your family will be a distraction.”“ Yes, boss,” says Larry getting up from the bed and walking to his daughter's room to check up on her. Walking up to her, he brushes his fingers through her hair, kissing her forehead.“Santiago, I need you to trace me a GPS of a vehicle the Shadow hunters were driving.” The shadow hunters detected Santiago by breaking through his firewall, putting his life in danger since they could trace his IP. Santiago starts packing all his equipment; as he is abo
What is the big secret Andrea is not telling Lucifer? Why won't she tell him? It's unfortunate. Lucifer usually gets any answer he wants by inflicting pain. But with her, it's different. She is friends with Joshua, so maybe for her to tell him is by accepting her in his son's life. It's a game of monopoly.Sitting there is Andrea and Tiffany. “Hey, girls,” he says, grinning. “Would you like to be taken shopping for clothing?” Tiffany never says no to a new wardrobe. Andrea smiles saying, “sure.” She is well off enough to buy her clothes. Her dad is running a mining company and owns a few estates. Lucifer notices Andrea is not as excited as Tiffany because she knows him as Mr. Morningstar. His name brings goosebumps to those who know him. Tiffany told Andrea he was a businessman. She never specified the type of businessman he was in. Andrea has a standard house average lifestyle. She has seen the cars he travels in but thought it's companies
“What is it you need to tell me?” Joshua says as Lucifer glances at her.“Can we go to speak in private, please?”“Sure,” he says, following her out of the room. She takes his hand, “you know I love you, right?”“Yes,” Joshua grins, “you are the love of my life.”“Well,” she says, “what I need to tell you is that in the time we were to.” She stops. “In the time we were together, something happened.” Squeezing his hand, “what happened?” He questions.“I told my dad I am not pregnant. He was about to put me out when he asked me about it. I had nowhere to go if I told him the truth.”“I understand,” he says. Locking eyes for a moment, they stare at each other as if it was the first time they met. The connection was so real.Walking to the room, he notices his dad and Winters's dad are laughing, a
It's been quite a journey, and much more is to come.Please be patient cause there are about three more books to follow.What will happen to Joshua and Tiffany?Is Juliet really trustworthy, or will she help her sister Andrea?Let us know in the comments what you think is going to happen.We would love to read your idea.Due to school and work, I need a little time to make the next book.But dont worry this summer, the next book will be uploaded.In the meantime, go read Retrograde or The venom in my system; both are amazing books too.Thank you for reading.
“Juliet, what’s wrong?” Tiffany walks up to her.“Nothing,” says Juliet staring up at Tiffany with tears.“Hey, we are here now for you. You're not alone.”She stands up, wiping her tears. “I am sorry, it's just,” she pauses and faintly smiles.Joshua then walks out of the room to inspect the other room. The other room has a queen-size bed with a balcony. Its wooden floor is shiny, as if it has been recently varnished. The long gold curtains blend in with the floor, and the bed has a white comforter. Looking outside on the balcony, it’s dark, but the fresh smell of the rain has him drawn to the view. He goes inside, asking Juliet if he can get that room.“Sure,” she says, “that was my room before.”“Oh, sorry,” says Joshua, “I never realized. I would not mind taking any room.”“No, no, it's ok,” says Juliet, “I
“My brother is an accurate shooter,” says Tiffany as she drives off.“Those are some lousy firemen,” she says as she pulls over and lets Joshua take over the steering wheel.“So, where are we heading?” says Tiffany to Joshua.Joshua looks for an answer, “where ever the wind blows us.”“There is this cabin in the woods; it's quiet and away from everything. It belonged to my grandmother and has been empty since. It has power. It's not so far from where we are. Perhaps we can head there?” Juliet says.“And what about Andrea she will come looking for us there. It will be risky.”Joshua now stops, pulls over at a garage to refill, and goes inside to get snacks. Juliet goes in with him as Tiffany sits back and watches how well they get along, but Tiffany senses there is something wrong with Juliet. She is hiding something.Joshua comes out with refreshments, lots of swe
“What a mess the storm destroyed everything.”Casey walks around as Joshua and Tiffany arrange new transportation, “I wish I could get hold of Santiago,” he says, “my email has been delivered, and there is still no reply.He goes to the deep web and scrolls through the profile of the best hackers to be his eyes and ears; however, he cannot find anyone.“Hey,” Tiffany says, “let's call Sammy.”“Who is Sammy,” says Casey.“It's my best friend at school.”Casey immediately goes to Facebook and goes under Tiffany's friends to see if she can spot Sammy. There is no information on her. “So,” says Casey, “why are you contacting Sammy? I thought you wanted to get rid of the past.”Tiffany glances at Joshua, “well, Sammy, her dad, and my dad were in business together, and Joshua and I were like kids to him. We grew up in their house prac
Laying towards Joshua, she holds her arm around his waist as Tiffany holds onto Casey for warmth. It's dark and storming outside as Joshua and Casey are asleep. Joshua, who was warm earlier, is now cold. He removed the blanket from him to make sure Casey and Tiffany had enough blankets to keep warm while the dog was lying on the floor. Suddenly there is a bang upstairs, and he wakes up, finding Casey's arm around him. As he moves it off, he stands up, peeking through the window, but it's dark, and the window is covered with snow. He goes upstairs and slowly opens the basement door. He climbs through and closes the door behind him as he notices the wood covering the window is completely broken. The wood holding the house together is scattered as he moves toward the door. Looking outside, it's dark and snowy. Their car is tilted upside down in the middle of the road.How much worst could it get? Going back downstairs, he locks the basement door regretting ever setting foot in S
“It's storming outside the window, gusting through Silent Valley.”“The generator at least works,” says Casey, “it's just for us to go and buy food now.”“I think we should first complete the mission. Andrea will come after us if we do not get to her first.”“You're right,” says Joshua, “let's get this over with.”He arms himself. Casey runs up to the door covering it, “what if you don't come back?”“We have been through the worst,” says Tiffany laughing, “please move aside. It's for your and our safety.”“Hold on," says Casey, running to her bag and taking out a gun.“Wait, hold on,” says Tiffany, “I thought you said you can't use a gun?”“About that, I lied. I did not feel like going out in the cold and knew Joshua could handle himself.”“And what about,” Tiff
Turning around, Joshua bends and grabs the gun twisting the person's arm. When he turns around, more inmates stand there, “there are seven, not six of them. Ghost, how did we miss this one?”“I am not sure, Sir. My system never picked up the seventh one. It's weird, though. My system just crashed.”“Hold on, Ghost. So you knew we were here, I take it?” he says to the guy.The guy refuses to answer as Joshua twists the hand more, “fine,” the guy screams as the other six guys now have their guns facing Joshua and Tiffany.The guy who was interrogating Tiffany now steps forward. “So, you the Joshua we were waiting for? The so-called cold and dangerous Joshua, who killed his own Father. You fools, you fell right into our trap. You see, that girl is not a hostage. Steve untie her,” he laughs, “that is your dear friend Andrea. Let's say she was not dead when she fell,” he smiles.He removed the bag from her head, “she is the brains behind this. Since we knew your girlfriend would kill herse
“Relax,” says Tiffany to Casey, “you will be fine.”Casey grins, “I know I have been through the worst.”Joshua and Casey now head off back to bed. “It’s freezing,” Casey says, “I thought this place was hot.”“Well, it's that time of the year when nighttime is cold and the day is sweltering.”Laying next to Joshua, Casey's heart is racing at his body heat. All she wants to do is just hold him.She then turns to face Joshua, making it as if she is asleep.Tiffany whispers to Joshua, “don't you think we should send her back home? Because we are endangering her life.”Joshua turned on his side, facing Tiffany, “let's talk in the morning. It has been a long day.”“Yes, it has,” she smiles, holding her pillow tight.“I miss mom,” she whispers as her eyes start to water, reflecting on all their fantasti
“No, there is nothing to sell,” Tiffany laughs, “it is just we like our space, and I think it's best you go back home.”Casey glances in the mirror to look at Joshua, hoping he will say something. Joshua glances and looks at the road. “So,” she changes the topic, “Tiffany, who is the lucky guy in your life?”“No one,” Tiffany laughs.“Come on, you can tell me.”“Nothing to tell,” she smiles.“And you, Joshua?”“Oh, he has a girlfriend,” Tiffany lies, “they have been dating for years.”“Ok,” says Casey looking down at her phone.Arriving in a silent valley, they can't help to notice how quiet the place is. There are broken windows and no one in sight. “Why is this place so quiet?” Tiffany says.“Well,” says Casey, “there was a virus outbreak that killed half the
