||Hardie Morrison||

I finished my meal and Lincoln cleaned up quickly and in few minutes he was done putting every thing away. He sigh as he sank into the couch beside me.

"So, what's the emergency that came up?" I asked him.

"Emergency? What emergency are you talking about?" He knitted his brows as he gave me a confused look.

Wait, I'm supposed to be confused here but he is. "Don't you dare joke with me, Lincoln. You talked about some emergency coming up." I groaned, rubbing my left temple.

Why do this guy find pleasure in playing me?

"Fine, its nothing unusual. I managed to get it resolved." He shrugged. "They recruited the old men with new ones and they tried to seized your goods, saying it contain illegal stuffs in it. Its nothing near emergency."

"Ahh, you made it sound like it's urgent." I scoffs.

"You not going out today?" He asked. "What's your progress on your newly found pawn?"

"I just want to remain this way till the day runs out. And my pawn, I'm doing just fine on he

"We are here…" he announced flatly with out sparing me a glance."Are you angry at me?" I pouted, wearing a childish frown. "I already promise not to try any thing childish again.

    [27] ||Gareth Sebastian||"Look who is here?" I chuckled lightly at Jamel appearing figure. Finally, my favourite puppet came running back to me after what seems like ages. Ahh, this looks like a big relief. Huh?His faces was not smiling as he put on a plain expression, he sat down on the couch few feet before me."You finally came." I uttered plainly. "Thought you still angry at your buddy, tsk.""Is that why you stay away from me?" He asked, glaring daggers at me."You still angry, huh?" I faked a laugh. "Here, take a puff to calm your anger. Or better still pick up this gun and vent your anger on me.""Nah, thanks." He waved my smoke off, eyeing the gun on the table. "I finished a stick not long ago and I can use gun on you either.""Hmm, right." I shrugged. "So, why is almighty Jamel here? Does he need a little help, huh?""You know me too well, don't you?" He snickered."Of course, I do. Why won't I huh?" I said in a friendly scornful tone. "After all I am your best c

I don't really feel like going to work today, but what can I do?Absolutely nothing!I can easily tell Jamel to ask few days off from Mr Darwin on my behalf or Hardie might be easier, but that will feel weird.And on second note, I'll be bored staying all a lone in this huge mansion with no one to talk to. Jamel doesn't have any worker not even a Butler except Justin, who works at the gate. And the chef, I rarely seen him except the early hours in the morning and late evenings.Ahh, I some times wondered how Jamel survive this huge house every new day in boredom.After minutes of lying helplessly in bed, I sluggishly got up and walked in to bathe room.

    [29] ||Hardie Morrison|| Since Lincoln said the only way I can get her head over heels with me is by being romantic and trying out new couple's stuff with her. I had to ask for her off permit from work from her boss and he did with out being hesitant. I already arranged for a proper date in Las Vegas for this afternoon and I'm glad every thing will be working out as planned. And since we will be going with a private jet, I was already waiting at the port for her arrival. It would have been better of we take off from my home but It doesn't seem appealing to me. I don't really want her to know much about me since she is just a… ahh, I shouldn't be saying any thing on this. After almost an hour of waiting, Lincoln finally parked and they both hopped down from the car. Her appearance was noticeable as she appeared more prettier in the dressing I ordered for her. Anger was boiling in me as I watched men drooled over her. She is my business and no one else has the right to

I wanted to protest but considering the fact that I'm too lazy to stand on my own, I quickly agreed with out second thinking."Wait, let me take off my shoes first." Without waiting for his response, I bent down to pull them off."Count down. On three, two, on..." I didn't wait for him to finish counting as I quickly stood up and hope on him back, I ended on with my right leg bare footed."You are mean, Hardie." I pouted wearing a childish frown, he only shrug with out a reply."Eating more than half the meal on the table, you still weigh very light." Hardie chuckled on our way out of the restaurant. I frowned at his statement and pricked his cheek."If you should continue doing that, I might drop you and let you do the walking yourself." He looks like he is threatening. Well since I don't want to do the walking myself, I decided not to prick him any more."Fine, I won't." I

  • His' Bait   The New Beginning

    [84]The sun dipped below the horizon as the fiery colours infused the sky above the sky above them, painting the perfect backdrop for the end of an era. As the crimson hues bled into the night, Lincoln couldn't help but admire the scene from the rooftop terrace if Hardie's lavish home.The cool breeze brush past them, bringing forth a scene of melancholy that mirrored the thoughts racing through Lincoln's mind. It was hard to believe that after all the hardship they had faced together, their journey was slowly screeching into a halt.Hardie, in his usual assertive manner, told Lincoln that he did not plan of letting him go anytime soon. Despite anticipation, the words slammed into Lincoln's chest like a brick wall, causing him to struggle for breath.Although, Lincoln had mentally prepared for such a confrontation, the reality was far more difficult to accept. Over the years, the two had become intertwined in a complex net of loyalty and betrayal, blurring the lines of their allianc

  • His' Bait   Let her go

    [83]"Isn't she the same with her?" I heard her asked all of a sudden, her voice was laced with outmost surprise or maybe shock.I raised my head up to the television's screen, trying to figure out what she was talking about. It was Ms. Roselle, that was her name, Hardie's mom. Why is she on the media all of a sudden? "She's the one, right?" She asked again, this time turning to me. "This is Hardie's mother." "Yeah." I nod in agreement, drawling my words. "I'm sure she is the one, she looks like her and the name too." "Why is she on the screen then?" Charlotte furthered, staring questioningly at me. I frowned at her question, we are both in the same room and she is the one who had informed me about this yet, she is asking me such a question? She's seriously unbelievable! "Were you not the one who just told me about it?" I return her question back to her. "And we are yet to listen to what she might have done." "You are right." She said sounding defeated but I did not really care.

  • His' Bait   The same with her

    [82] ||•Lincoln Shire•||"Welcome..." The hotel receptionist uttered, wearing a delightful expression as she smiled warmly at us.I'm not the type that smiles but I was kind enough to reciprocate it. Charlotte, on the other hand, just gave her a slight nod with a blank expression on her face. It's obvious that she's too tired for all of this, every thing about her tell it all."Two VIP..." I simply stated but the stare on her face tells otherwise, I need her not to say much before I understand her expression. "We'll just hop for any available rooms left, okay. As far as it's as comfortable as a home, we have no choice to it."She shook her head with an apologetic look on her face. "I'm sorry, Sir..." She muttered, avoiding eye contact with Charlotte and I. "It's just a room left, all other rooms are occupied for the night."Mere looking at Charlotte, she was not comfortable with herself as she scrunched her face tightly in displeasure. "Why...?" She requested with indifference

  • His' Bait   A break

    [81] ||•Lincoln Shire•||The day has been kind of hectic for Charlotte and I, tailing and spying on other lords just to get want we want from them.Well, as usual, Charlotte was used as the bait to get to them. I must commend how much she has done in the nick of time.She made every thing much easier for me since they are things I can do and places I can't penetrate as a male, yeah .Retiring for the day, we decided to lodge the night in one of the suites around till the next day.I would have vouch for a clubhouse instead because there, I would surely meet with new lords but Charlotte had insisted we get a proper night sleep instead.Well, I have no other choice to obliging. We will just find a suitable suite for us after we are done with our drinks. •••"I think I need a break after this." Charlotte muttered before chugging down her last cup of wine. "This is becoming much more challenging than it ever was.""What break —?" I asked with my brows raised in questioni

  • His' Bait   At The Park

    [80] ||Hardie Morrison||I speed up and in no time, we arrived at the park, the same park I brought her to couple of months ago. It was just few weeks after we met. Arlington was a little bit surprised, well, it reflected on her face."I guess I did not see this coming..." She countered with a soft chuckle after. "Why did you bring us here?"I ignored her question and helped her undo her seat belt. "Come on." I said instead and hopped down from the car.She hopped down immediately after I did before I was able to turn around. "I can always help myself with the door, you should stop worrying over little things." She said as she shut the car's door behind her."Little things also matters, Arling." I told her in reply and hold her hand, and intertwined it with mine. "What did you want?" "I want… that." She pointed at the cotton candy not to far from us, wearing a wide smile on her face. The smile of hers that I did not want to miss, not now or ever.I’ve done so much wrong

  • His' Bait   I lied, Ms. Grayson.

    [79] ||Hardie Morrison||"Ms. Roselle is coming home with us." Arling suddenly announced which made Hardie stopped in his track."What...?!" I blurted out, almost choking on my own breathe. " think I heard wrong, yeah. What did you say?""What did I say?" She repeated my question with her brows deeply creased. "I said; Ms. Roselle would be coming with us, did I say some thing awful?"These days, ever since this fóxy human suddenly introduced herself to you, I see you enjoy getting on my nerves...” those were the words I wanted to reply her with but said some thing else instead.I know and I'm sure of it, this fóxy human is trying to cause a rift between Arlington and I the same way she did to Amelia and other people too.But then, I would never give in to such cheap plan she drafted. I'll just have to pretend I never heard Arling speaks about her or made mention of her name."Aren’t you tired of staying here?" I asked, diverting the topic else where. "You’ve been in the ho

    [78] ||Ms. Roselle||There are so many things to regret but I don't think I have a reason to regret any of them, except of course, if I lose access to them.Yeah! That would be my only regret!How do I regret my source of income and wealth? Because I smug in drugs? Or because I'm an old stripper and a s3x worker? Probably because I rob dignitaries off their wealth?I've done and indulged myself in so many shits and dirty works and I'm glad I did, if not, how do I gather so much wealth in the nick of time?But of course, I do have one regret! It's hurts me and I'm suppose it's never too late to rectify it!No taming Hardie when I have the chance to was my only regret! I couldn't hold in the pain I felt seeing him succeed in his own games and outsmarting other drug lords in the game.Most time, I do wonder how he was able to attain such height at a very young age. He used to be the gentle type who barely talks or socialize himself with others, how did he turn out to be the b

    [77] ||Hardie Morrison||It was hard to convince Arlington about the babies being alive, she felt we were lying about them to have want her to go home with out thinking of seeing the babies.For this, I have to asked the doctor if it was okay and safe to visit just for the air to be clear and he gladly permits with out blinking an eyelid about it."They are much stronger than they were in the last few days and out of danger too." He told me. "They are recovering faster already, it safe to visit them."Due to the babies being conceived earlier than they were supposed, one of them was too weak and barely look like she was going to survive as of when they were birthed.The impact from Arlington's fall made her weak and having almost near de@th experience. Thankfully, she turned out to be a strong survivor and did not d¡e and the other baby was safe too.I couldn't just imagine how hard it will be on Arlington to hear about one of the babies not surviving.

    [76] ||Hardie Morrison||The weather temperature today was cold but not that very cold. That doesn't matter, what matters is Arlington would be discharged any time from now since I already signed documents for her to be discharged."Please, keep her under close watch and make sure she doesn't go under pressure. She should be stress free too and nothing should threaten her health status too." The doctor advised as he scribbled down things on a pad. "She is still prone to shock and I'm sure you won't want her to go in to coma again.""Why will I? I won't be foolish to repeat such mistake again." I muttered in response. I don't want her mom to take her far away from me, I won't be able to stand the pain that would come after it."Here are the drugs she will be using..." The doctor handed the scribbled piece for me, not after explaining each benefit of the scribbled drugs and how she's suppose to use them."When is she gon' be discharged?"
