"So when did the doctor say I can go home?" Jamie asked.It's been three weeks since the attack at the house and Jamie's health had improved greatly. There was really nothing anyone of them could other than watch and wait for him to recover naturally."This weekend." Parker said.He had also made a successful recovery which was even faster than Amanda had ever imagined. "Oh, thank God." Jamie sighed.He was glad to be out of there because like he said before, he hated hospital food with a passion."Where's Amanda?" Jamie asked."She's in school. You know, she can't really miss school anymore because of the long break she had to take... You know." Parker sighed. It was all so surprising what all of them had experienced in the past months. They couldn't deny the fact that they had grown much stronger and also united more than ever before.That was all that mattered to them. Jamie sighed yet again, something he seemed to do everytime. Sometimes, the hopelessness of their situation got
"After all checks, I am satisfied now that you're free to go." The doctor smiled.It was the weekend and just as the doctor had promised, Jamie was free to leave. What he had told Parker a few days before was still ringing in his ears. He still couldn't believe that Jamie was a member of the eagle confraternity."Thank you doctor." Jamie smiled."You're welcome. I'll instruct the nurse to prepare you for discharge." The doctor nodded before walking away.Parker remained quiet as he stared into space. There were many things going through his mind, top of which was how Jamie came to join this confraternity."You're still thinking about what I said? Come off it man. It's done and that's final." Jamie said, sitting up."I still can't believe you're a part of them. I mean, we talked about this group when we were younger and we swore never to be a part of them. So Jamie, what changed?" Parker asked.Jamie sighed, sitting up to stare at the wall. There were different things running through h
"You really don't know how happy I am to see you hale and hearty." Amanda smiled."Trust me darling, i am happy to even be alive." Jamie chuckled.It's been five days since he was discharged and to their surprise, he recovered just fine which was something they never thought would happen.Parker who had earlier gone out for some groceries, returned, carrying bags of groceries."Hey man." Jamie smiled."Don't get too cozy with my girl or else I'll eat you for breakfast." Parker laughed."Never going to happen man. She's like the sister i never had." Jamie chuckled."You get too jealous." Amanda laughed."As expected. You're my girl. That reminds me, Jamie's got a girl too." Parker smirked.Amanda turned to Jamie in surprise, staring at him with an amused look."Who's she?" Amanda chuckled.She offloaded everything Parker had bought with him in the adjoining kitchen. "Well, she's a nurse at the hospital I was admitted. Her name's Ashley." Jamie said."Oh wow! Even in the midst of all t
''You've got to answer some questions baby before you climb this pussy.'' Aliyah smiled.At that moment, Lucas knew her seductive moment had come to play and there was really nothing he could do about it. She wanted this just as much as he wanted this but first, her condition was for him to answer a question.''You just had to bring this up now?'' Lucas sighed.''Of course. But to be honest baby boy, it's been bothering me ever since.'' Aliyah smirked.Lucas didn't know what kind of question she wanted to ask but whatever it was, he had a feeling that it might not sit well with him.''Alright love, let's hear it.'' Lucas sighed.He had no say in this issue and if he wanted to fuck her senseless, he had to be as fast as possible. He had come to realize that with her, he just had to answer all of her questions.''What would you do if i died today?'' she asked.''What the fuck!'' Lucas seethed.He rose up from his seat in apparent anger as he began pacing the length and breadth of the ro
"Parker, we need to talk." Jamie said the next morning.Parker had chosen to stay back at home to look after Jamie even though the latter had protested. He was getting much better now but Parker refused to believe him and Amanda joined in, supporting her boyfriend."What's up man?" Parker asked.Amanda was taking her bath upstairs in preparation for school and so she couldn't hear what they discussed."I spoke with one of my guys yesterday night about the issue." Jamie began.Because his leg was severely affected, he had to walk for a few months with a cane which he absolutely hated but there was nothing he could do about it."Okay." Parker simply said."And he knows Amanda's parents. In fact, he knows them more than you do." Jamie said.Parker took the seat beside him, his face laced with confusion. He had no idea where Jamie was going on with this but he decided to remain silent to see where all of this was heading."Apparently, Eric Thompson, Amanda's father wasn't a saint like we
''Do you need me to come with you?'' Lucas asked.He hated seeing her this way especially when she was disturbed and agitated. He swore within himself to deal with Sam if he so much as hurt one strand of her hair. Ever since Aliyah had told him about her cousin, he'd been getting a very bad vibe from him.''No love, it's fine. I'll call you as soon as i sort this out.'' Aliyah said, giving him a kiss.Lucas drew her closer, breathing in the scent of his shampoo she had used to bathe. Now, she smelt like him and he loved it because finally, they were one.''Please don't die on me and promise me you'll call.'' Lucas sighed.''I promise, I will. You've got nothing to fear.'' Aliyah assured him.Lucas sighed, giving her a long kiss before he escorted her out of the house. He wasn't bothered about any of his men seeing her in his mansion because he was quite sure she was swift enough and could get out of the house undetected but still, he just wanted to make sure she got out alright.''I'l
"I have a feeling there's a connection. I mean, things don't just happen that way." Parker said.He was still buzzing from the information Jamie had given him earlier on. He strongly believed that there was a link between Amanda's parents and this Aliyah of a woman."No one's saying there isn't. We just don't know where or how this link came about."Or do you think Eric angered Aliyah's parents too?" Parker asked.At that point, he knew he had to explore every possible means and connections because it could be of great help."We still don't know but my guy is working on it." Jamie said""Thank you man. I honestly wouldn't have known any of this if it wasn't for you. Thank you. I'm really grateful." Parker sighed."No need to thank me man. I'm doing it for you and Amanda because I love you both." He smiled.Parker remained silent as he thought about what he had said. Jamie was a friend indeed and he was someone he could trust."Do you want to take a bath now?" Parker asked."I think so
"You're all done." Parker smiled.Jamie hobbled downstairs, going over to sit back down on the chair he previously occupied."I heard some voices. Someone came in?" He asked."No, it was Amanda who called. She just wanted to check in on us.""Oh, that's so sweet of her. I hope everything is going on well in school?""Yeah, it is. Jamie, I need your thoughts about something." Parker said with a thoughtful look on his face."What's the matter?" "You can call me crazy or mad but what are the chances of the school principal being involved in everything that's happening?" Jamie fell silent as his mind took on different turns and twists all centering on Parker's thoughts. He hadn't thought about that before because his mind hadn't gone there. Now that Parker had mentioned it, his mind resonated on the possibilities that there might actually be a connection between him and whatever's going on."I see your point." Jamie said, finally."I know man because thinking about it, Eric and his wif
''Thank you.'' Parker said.Amanda who had been in the middle of waking up and sleeping yawned as she opened her eyes. She had just had the best sex ever and she knew that in time to come, she would never forget any of this. Parker made her feel like a woman, a woman who was dignified and not like those other women men used, stories she had heard from her friends.''For what?'' Amanda asked.''For starters, for doing this with me. I know you can easily get your pick from all the numerous men out there but you chose me. That means something to me.'' Parker smiled.He moved closer to her, taking her warm hands in his. He couldn't quite believe he had a beautiful woman in his bed. It all seemed like a dream but Parker knew it was no dream, it was real. As real as it could get.''You don't have to thank me. I love to be with you just as you are to me so no need to thank me. All we have to figure out now is how to manage this without letting anyone else know about it.'' Amanda said.Parker
"How do you feel baby?"Amanda asked.It's been a few days since Parker was attacked and to say he made a speedy recovery would be an understatement, it was amazing.At the beginning, when it first happened, Amanda had her doubts whether he would recover but at the end, he not only surprised her but everyone who knew.Jamie and Amanda both knew that it was his strength that saved him but at the same time, Parker was so strong on his own that nothing could actually hurt him."I'm okay baby, you don't need to worry about me. I told you to stop asking about me, I'm more concerned about you. Tell me darling, how do you feel?" Parker asked.That was just one thing about him. Even though he was in pains, he would still make sure she was alright. That was the kind of man she loved and Amanda was quite glad she got him."Asides being scared that you might not make it, I'm okay over all." She smiled.Parker leaned closer to her, giving her a warm kiss on her lips.This was the best moment for t
‘’The Dremis’s have sought for outside help.’’ Aliyah began.If Lucas was surprised to hear this, he hid it well. For a group not so grounded as the Dremis’s, he had a feeling that they might likely have sought outside help. Now, it was happening and he didn’t know what to make of it. ‘’Wow! Really, wow!’’ Lucas said.‘’I know, that was my initial expression when he told me this.’’ Aliyah said.With those words, she had committed herself and she knew it was best for her to tell him everything at that moment because he would never stop until he found out what she really meant by those words.‘’Diabla, what do you mean?’’ Lucas asked.Aliyah sighed, taking a deep breath. She didn’t want to be seen as a traitor. Even though she was the head and could do as she pleases, her loyalty still remained with her group and she would rather die than compromise that.‘’I lied when i told you i went to see the accident victim.’’ Aliyah said.‘’I knew you were lying but I just didn’t know where you
Lucas was getting ready to leave his office when he received a call from Aliyah. He had been expecting her call and he was quite glad when he saw her name flash on his screen. Ever since his first kidnap, he had also been very careful on how he moved about.He didn't want to do anything that would cause her pain or put himself in a position that wasn't good at all. He needed to be careful now because a baby, his child, was also in the picture.Lucassmiled broadly and picked it up. He heared gushes from her as she thanks him for the dress. He knew she was going to do this but still, he was surprised at how enthusiastic she sounded. This just told him that she actually appreciated the gift and within him, he planned to give her more gifts as the day went by.''Hey baby, I see you like your new dress.'' he smiled.''Aliyah, I not only like it, I love it. Thank you so much.'' Aliyah gushed.She had always been a sucker for pretty dresses and anytime anyone gifted her one, she never faile
"Oh my gosh! No no no. It's not going through." Aliyah said.She had been trying to mind link Lucas ever since but the damn server was being distrusted by something or someone. It was very frustrating to say the least."Oh my gosh! What's going on? Where's Lucas?" Aliyah asked, pacing about.She gripped her phone in her hands, pacing about with tears streaming down her eyes. If anything were to ever happen to Lucas, Aliyah knew she'd never forgive herself nor him because she had warned him not to go anywhere but his stubbornness and insistence to go had caused him a whole lot."What's happening?" She asked.Patrick rushed in at that moment, panthing in her normal form. Aliyah had called her when she couldn't get a hold of Lucas because in that moment, she knew it was only Patrick that could calm her down."You still haven't gotten a hold of him?" Patrick asked, morphing back to her normal form."No and the worst part of it all is that the mind link seems to be scrambled somehow." Aliy
"Babe, I need to get to another town this evening. I need to pick up something from my office there." Lucas said. It was early in the morning, with the birds singing in the air and the morning animals chirping in the forests round about them. It was also the day of the anniversary, the day when both Aliyah and Lucas would be in their strongest form. "You realize what day it is today right?" Aliyah asked. Lucas knew but still, he knew he had to take the trip. It was very important not only to him but to the entire company and he wouldn't trade it for anything else. "This is important to me Aliyah, you've got to understand." He said Aliyah didn't know what was more important than staying home when he clearly knew that going out on a anniversary day was not a good decision. "Can't it wait till the following day?" Aliyah asked. "It honestly can't. If I could, I wouldn't bother going today." Lucas said. Aliyah thought about it and judging from the look in his eyes, she knew it had
LucasI couldn't lie to myself that what Slyvia said hurt me a whole lot. The bite and sting in her voice hurt me a lot but the last thing I would do was to see how much she hurt me. I would rather eat sand than allow her to see that she actually got to me.''Bitch!'' I hissed.Her disgusting attitude and behavior was going to get her into trouble one day and I would be there to watch her downfall and also laugh at her.I made my way back to my room. There were many things I needed to do and the earlier I got on with it, the better for me. I didn't have time to worry about someone like her when there were other things I could worry about.Slyvia was of no importance to me and in that moment, I knew I needed to put her in her place. That was the best thing I could do to someone like her.''So… how did it go?'' a voice said.I didn't need to look back to know that it was Patrick who spoke. He was very inquisitive as well as nosey and would always want to know everything that was going o
"Parker, let's go make some cookies." Amanda said.She was in the mood to eat and actually make some of the delicious cookies with Parker. With him, she always felt safe, like nothing could actually go wrong which was her own safe space."Now?" He asked."Yes, or don't you?" Amanda asked.Not that she'd be angry about that but she just knew that the next time she decided to make it, she wouldn't have the energy to."I'm game." Parker smiled.Together, they made their way towards the kitchen, holding hands like lovestruck teenagers. Sometimes, they couldn't get a hold of themselves which at times was very annoying especially to Jamie who couldn't stand them at all."If Jamie was here, you know he'd probably shout at us for being so cringy." Amanda laughed."Yeah... Yeah, I told the guy to get a girlfriend but he feels so reluctant about it. I'll probably talk to him about it again." Parker said."Is he scared of commitments?" Amanda asked.That was the only thing that came to her mind
"Yo! Parker, I have to get out for a while." Jamie said.His plan was to go to the brotherhood's office to tell them that he would be leaving soon. It hurt him to leave but he had to get back to his mother and also finish up his school."Okay, stay safe bro." Parker said from the inner room.He was helping Amanda with some of her homework which some of her friends had mailed to her. It was off to say the least because it was usually the other way around with her teaching him. But if there was one thing Parker was good at, it was English literature.When it came to that, he was champion, nobody could beat him in that and it was no wonder he aced all his papers in that aspect."Will do." Jamie said.He left the house, shutting the door firmly. Ever since Amanda was attacked in school by that crazy monster, she'd been taking home lessons which was safer and both Parker and her uncle could keep an eye on her.Her uncle who had planned to leave before might not be leaving in a long time. A
