66– Yours and mine

2024-10-09 18:00:38"Don't ever look for me because you will never find me. Take care of yours and I will take care of mine. Bye forever." That was the note that had come with the baby.
Although George didn't understand the second sentence, he placed the note on their coffee table and took the wailing baby out of Stella's hands. It was his first time carrying a baby, and he feared holding him too tight or not holding him firm enough and drop him. As he tried to craddle the baby, his heart pounded. The baby had light brown skin and not much head hair. His mouth was pink and his wails were woarse."Shh shhh..." George tried walking around the room trying to sooth it. "Is it a boy or a girl?" He asked his mother."It's a boy."George looked at the baby's face and fell in love. "But how could she just leave you like that, little guy?" He asked."Because she's crazy that's why." Stella responded. "She knows you're studying full time and I am working full time. How are we gonna take careRelated chapters

"We're not stabbing that man in the back." Rob said as he entered the passenger side of his all black SUV."You know, I don't get it, sir." Sylvester responded. "You're gonna keep choosing Hunter, even if it's over your daughter?" "I am not choosing him over Rebecca, I am trying to protect them both." Rob stood his ground. "Protecting him is not gonna get us far, sir."Rob thought for a few seconds and then responded. "I am not leaving him out to dry. He doesn't deserve it.""He's the reason we're in this mess in the first place. He kidnapped miss Rebecca." Sylvester started the car. "With all due respect, I think you're forgetting that.""You know, you keep saying 'with all due respect' but don't seem to be giving me any. I said we are not turning on Hunter and you should respect that.""My job is to protect your family. I wake up every morning and devote my life to you and your family, sir."Rob sighed and then pinched the space between his eyes and lowered his head. "I know, I kn

Hunter laid topless on their bed, facing the ceiling. He and Rebecca had just made love and she was now sleeping on top of his chest. "What are you thinking about?" She asked him. He smiled. "Nothing." "You sure?" She looked up at him. "Not thinking about 'sending me back to the palace'?" He frowned and then looked at her. "You were eavesdropping?" "I didn't intent to, but the walls of this cabin aren't that thick. I can hear George snoring right now." "Sorry if it sounded rough." He responded. "Sorry if it looks like I'm getting tired of always being locked up." Hunter scoffed. "Are you being sarcastic?" "Do you remember what you told me while we were still at the warehouse?" "What?" "You said that when everything was over, we'd live a normal life. That you'd stop that work and we'd be together like normal people." "Yeah..." "Well, you left your work, but I just want to know when we will be able to live like normal people again." Hunter sighed. "As soon as your dad pay

"I guess there's no talking you out of this?" Joe asked. "Like she said, you're so damn stubborn. Really. Gosh!"They were sitting on the edge of bonnet of Fred's car.Hunter looked off into the pitch dark forest. "I don't have a choice, Joe." He whispered. "Look how we're living. Doing this gets all of you immunity.""Maybe there's another way." He placed a hand on Hunter's shoulder."What way?"Joe stared back at him desperately, the desperation was reflected back. "Uh... I don't know."Hunter's face fell and he looked the other way."But we can work something out together. Let's just tell your dad and I am sure he will work something out.""If he had a sollution, we wouldn't have spent almost a week in this cabin. The guy's been in hiding himself for how many years? From the very same person. It's hopeless Joe.""No—""This is the only way.""Getting yourself killed, really? That's the best you could come up with?" Joe scracthed his head roughly.

Sylvester took out his phone and phoned Angelo. It rang and rang. Sylvester thought it would go to voicemail but then he picked up."Hello?" It was a female."Who is this?""You called me, who are you?""I got this number from the card at the reception. Is this not Angelo's gym?""This is Better Life Gym." She responded."Exactly." Sylvester said. "Can you get Angelo on the phone.""I don't know who that is, sir.""Cut the crap lady. I was there yesterday with Rob Holland, the billionaire. Remember me? And then we went down to basement to Angelo. Can you just pass him the phone.""Would you like to know about our membership packages?""Tell Angelo it's about Hunter King."The lady stayed quiet for a while and then sighed. "Hold on."Music started playing on the other side of the line."Shit..." Sylvester said in annoyance. He watched the guards dragging Hunter to the side building."Hello?" At last it was Angelo."It's Sylvester, head of security for Rob Holland and—""Get to the poin

"Rebecca?" Elizabeth asked. "Are you okay?" Hunter asked her. She looked mortified but managed to nodd her head. Sylvester took a few steps back and then was caught before he fell backwards. "Sir, are you okay?" One of his men asked him. Sylvester grunted. "I... am shot." He dropped the gun to the floor. The wound was on his left upper arm and was bleeding profusely. Rebecca's palms flung to cover her mouth as she watched the guards rush to provide Sylvester with medical attention. "I'm sorry... I didn't mean to..." Rebecca was shaking. Hunter came to hug her. "It's okay, you didn't pull the trigger, he did." "But still—" "Let's get out of here." Hunter placed an arm around her and they quickely made for the gate. "Rebecca!" Elizabeth was crying behind them. "Get in, get in." Hunter opened the car door for her and then shut it. He could see cars approaching in high speed. "Shit..." There was only one way out of here, and it was the same way the cars were coming, the othe

Hunter felt a firm grip on his shoulder. Without looking back, he already knew who it was. It was a cold Friday night and him and his friend Joe had chosen to come to Fellas Corner with only one motto for the night 'No leaving until wasted'. But now he knew, he might not be able to stick around long enough to even feel tipsy. Hunter looked back and saw Hector King standing behind him. Hector nodded at him and then began walking away slowly. Hunter knew that he had to follow his boss. “What happened?” Joe asked Hunter. Hunter shrugged, stepped off the stool and gulped down the last of his whiskey. “You're probably not coming back, are you?” Joe asked him. Hunter didn't respond, he just grabbed his leather jacket from the bar and shook Joe's hand bidding goodbye. He took one last long pull at his cigarette and then placed it in the ashtray. He then followed Hector outside. At the door of the bar were two very sexily dressed women and he walked out backwards looking at them. T

The all-black SUV pulled up softly in front of 32 Small Street, Windsor, Sunnington. A quiet and posh neighbourhood. The houses here were all double stories and had gardens that looked so perfect it looked fake. Posh cars were parked on their driveways, all of them except for Marcus Grayman's driveway. There was no car. The men had switched off all car lights so it would be harder to spot them. Although it was dark, eleven at night, there were streetlights in the street which pretty much luminated over everything. So, there was not much cover. It had taken them four long hours to get to Sunnington from Bellerose. But Hunter was used to this. One time, Hector flew him and a few of the other men over to Japan to settle the rivalry between their consumers, two Japanese drug lords. Hector had only gotten involved because the Boryo-feisu rivalry between the Boryokuda drug lord and the Sukafeisu drug lord had caused a big drop in supply and demand, and it was affecting King's income. 'Not

Hunter pulled up in front of Hector King's mansion. He could see Joe waiting at the sliding gate. Joe was wearing a beige hoodie and khaki pants with white sneakers. He always had the best sense of style. A few feet ahead, Hunter could see Joe's batted 2008 Opel Cadette parked. Yes, Joe might wear the latest sneakers and always stayed on top of fashion trends, but he seemed stuck back in time when it came to cars. He always said that the best car models were the ones made before 2009. What a joke. And since he didn't have a solid reason for keeping his worn out car that was handed down to him from his grandfather, everyone just assumed that he was stingy and didn't want to spend on gas or anything else for that matter unless it was clothes and alcohol. Hunter got out of his 2019 Mercedes Benz and pulled off his shades as Joe raised a hand to catch Hunter's attention as if Hunter would miss him in plain sight. Hunter looked up at the blazing sun and then clumsily pulled off his leathe

Nathan had his forearms on the bar. "What can I get for you?" Bella said, bringing her arms to the counter, leaving just a small gap between their faces. "Bring me whatever you gonna have." Nathan gave her a smirk and handed her the money. She gave him a flirtatious smile and went away to get him something. When she came back she passed him their strongest whiskey. "Is that all you got for yourself?" He asked her. She raised the shot she had in her other hand. "Unfortunately, I'm on the clock. Cheers." She then drank up and was about to walk away but he grabbed her arm over the counter. "I just have a question." He said. "The girl that was working here before you, Rhita. Do you know where I can find her?" "Stop flirting with the customers and move on, Bella." Her boss yelled from the other side. She rolled her eyes at him. "I am not flirting with nobody!" She yelled back and then turned to Nathan as he let her hand go. "You just said she worked here before me. Don't

"It's almost 3 days since that little imbecile screwed us over, finding him can't be that fucking hard." Angelo was addressing Nathan and Sean. "The guy is a ghost, man, no social media, no family we can link him to, no girlfriend, well he took his girlfriend with him..." Nathan responded. "And friends..." Sean added. "Exactly. We can't track his phone because it's not on." Nathan shrugged. "What about his friends' phones?" Angelo enquired. "Joe's phone has been off too. They obviously ditched their phones." Sean said. "And the gay one?" Angelo asked. Nathan and Sean exchanged looks. "We don't have her number, bro." Sean replied. "Yeah." Nathan agreed. Angelo's top lip curved upwards. "You don't have her number? So that's why we don't find Hunter, that's why we just let it go and move on?" "How else are we gonna track her without knowing her number?" Sean asked. Angelo flung the back of his hand against Sean's jaw. Sean tumbled backwards and fell on top of Angelo's glass t

After sitting in silence, Walker began getting up. "You know, you would think that after all these years, talking about this would be easy but..." Hunter watched him slide his hands in his pockets and face away. Hunter didn't pressure him, he sat there waiting for Walker to continue the story. A few seconds later, "My mom convinced me that the best thing to do was to run away. To go live with my aunt in another town until the company considered my request to pay for my accomodation at the student residence." Walker took a long pause. "And I did. I was a scared boy who had just managed to get into his dream school, studying his dream career. "So you did the one thing Delilah said you'd do?" "Although we dated for about 5 years before that, I knew that in the eyes of the law, she was still a minor and I could get locked up if her father reported me. So I left. I didn't tell her anything. I just disappeared. "Living at the student accomodation, was all a 20 year old could ask for.
