The next day, Luciana’s heart was a bit steady after the good sex she had with Lucas the previous night. Sometimes, she didn’t quite understand her body. It just seemed like she wasn’t in control of herself especilaly with the way she got down dirty with him.‘’Honey, i’ll be back home on time today since Jamie and his wife would be coming over for dinner later today.’’ Lucas said.He had decided to move in for a while the previous night because he couldn't bare to be without her but Aliyah knew that the real reason was due to the fact that he dared the elders to come back and see things for themselves. If there was something Lucas loved, it was a dare and this looked like one.Now that his friend was coming and his wife, he had to actually get back home early.He kissed Aliyah on her cheek, peppering small kisses on her shoulders and her most ticklish spots. Aliyah giggled, trying to get away from him but it was impossible because Lucas had her in a tight grip.‘’You’ll be the de
''How can you encourage your friend to come in here when you know the kind of person he is?'' Aliyah said.Lucas looked at her like she had completely lost it. He couldn't quite understand the words she said. Her face was masked in anger as well as disbelief.''Baby, I don't understand. Jamie is my childhood friend, someone i trust dearly.'' Lucas said with a confused expression on his face.Aliyah stared at him like he had completely lost it. It was filled with disbelief as well as surprise because she never expected him to be this daft. Couldn't he see through his friend? Didn't he know that Jamie wasn't who he thought he was?''I really don't understand you right now.'' Lucas sighed.He made his way towards the long couch in the living room, slumping on it while holding a bottle of sprite.Aliyah sighed, walking towards him. She needed to be patient in that moment so she could explain everything to him bit by bit. Because he had been friends with him for such a long time, he was
''Aliyah Aliyah '' a voice called out.Aliyah was awoken from her sleep by the loud voice. She had a terrifying day the previous day and now that she was awake, she didn't know how grateful she was to be alive in that moment. Aliyah sighed, rising up to sit on her bed just as her room door burst open.It was Patrick and with the way he rushed in, she had a feeling that he had been running for quite a while.''Good heavens! Patrick !'' Aliyah said.Patrick hugged her tightly like she had been dead and now brought back to life. There were so many emotions going through him she couldn't quite understand.''I was gone for a while and this had to happen? What the hell is going on?'' he seethed.''I'm fine Patrick . It was just a good thing I screamed when I had the chance to. It could have been worse you know.''Patrick sighed, slumping on the large couch at the corner of the room. He needed to come to terms with the fact that his god-daughter could have been dead if she hadn't screamed a
''We got an intel on Valentina. Since today's friday, we'll bring her in tomorrow, saturday.'' Patrick said.Its been a few days since the bomb scare and Aliyah had recovered fairly well. Though she was still shaken up by the event, she was recovering faster than she ever thought. Lucas on the other hand had to take a short trip to the neighboring town for an urgent meeting with some of the heads in that village.Their aim was to find out more ways they could use in pinning Enzo down. The real problem here was Enzo and the earlier they pinned him down, the better for all of them. They could never move forward if Enzo was still around and since he was seeking outside help now, the earlier they nabbed him, the better for all of them.''Okay, that's good and has she agLucas to come in?'' Aliyah asked.''AgLucas ? It's not an invite to a party Diabla, we aren't sending out invitations. We're going to bundle her here whether she likes it or not.'' Patrick said.Aliyah wasn't sure she lov
The following day, Aliyah was waiting patiently for news from Alessandro. That was the day they were to bring in Valentina and in that moment, her emotions were high. She wasn't sure if they would succeed but one thing was sure, Patrick would never fail.Just then, her phone gave a small beep, indicating she had a call. Glancing at the caller ID, she discovered it was Patrick calling. ''Andro, what's up?'' Aliyah asked.''Everything is on course. We are with her and we'll get to the mansion soon,'' he said.Aliyah was relieved that everything was going as planned. She would hate it if everything went south because that wasn't what she wanted.''Okay, please keep me updated.'' Aliyah said before cutting the call.She made her way towards the room located in the basement downstairs. Even up till now, the whole place gave Aliyah the creeps. Even as a child, she couldn't go there alone and she had been there numerous times.According to her father, he wanted her to get used to the whole
''But you can't, you really can't.'' Valentina protested. Aliyah chuckled, going over to the area where the torture devices were kept. She didn't want to use force on Valentina but with every minute she spoke, it was getting harder and harder to restrain herself. ''Are you even a fool? Do you reason at all? Don't you know if you go out now, Enzo would track you down and kill you?'' Aliyah said. She couldn't quite understand why Valentina didn't see the green light. She was as dumb as she looked. Valentina thought about what Aliyah said and she realized she was right. Enzo just seemed to know everyone's whereabouts. It was very strange to say the least but she wasn't surprised because he actually had spies all over the place. ''Gosh, my life is officially in danger.'' Valentina sighed. ''Not yet baby girl, wait till he actually knows you've been compromised.'' Luciana chuckled. ''So the choice is really yours, stay here and be safe or go outside and get killed. The choice is you
''Valentina isn't going anywhere.'' Aliyah vowed.She would no longer be fooled and scared by Enzo. This was her house, her lair and he had the right to come in here to threaten her? That was uncalled for and she would make sure he knew who the boss was.''Hell no, she isn't.'' Patrick said.Aliyah liked the fact that they were on the same page. It would make everything easier, having someone by her side who shared the same belief with her.'''Now, we just need to find a way to get to Enzo so we strike. I've been itching to deal with that boy.'' Patrick said.''Well, i guess now is your chance.'' Aliyah chuckled.Slowly, they rose to their feet, walking towards the main doors where the security team had already barricaded the place. They were putting up a human wall against Enzo and them. There was no getting in without getting past them, that was the way it went.''Aliyah , Sir. You both can not go out there, Enzo and his men are armed.'' one of the team said.''It's okay, she's with
''What did you discover?'' Aliyah smiled.She was itching to hear what he had found out because the look on his face was one of discovery. She didn't know how to describe it but when he had made a new discovery, his eyes tended to lighten up, bringing about a noticeable glow around him.''Enzo and some men are having a meeting at the wharf in a few days and you wouldn't believe who's in on it.'' Lucas said.Aliyah thought about it for a while and she realized that whoever was helping Enzo had to be someone well connected and in know of all the latest gadgets and equipment.''Just tell us boy.'' Patrick said.Usually, he didn't have patience for things like this and Aliyah was quite surprised that he stayed till this moment to hear what Lucas had to say.''I don't know if its true yet but my sources say that Lucas is working with a top government official and it is this person that supplies him with all the ammunitions he needed.'' Lucas explained.Aliyah had to sit down for a bit
''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.
