Lola's bag fell off her hands as the two continued with their love making even after they saw her at the door.
With trembling hands, she turned to leave without taking her bag when Lucy grabbed her by the collar and pushed her off to the bedside. Taking a rope she walked towards Lola.
"W.. What are you trying to do?.Let go of me!.Let go of me now!"Lola screamed but it seems her pleas went just on deaf ears as Steve seem to enjoy her scream.
"Steve told me a lot about you and even how you can't please him, so make sure you watch us real good then maybe after I am satisfied,then you can go home. "Lucy winked at her devishly and walked up to Steve on bed.
Lola couldn't stop the tears flowing from her eyes. Could she had ever expected this from someone she called her lover?.
"Did you ever loved me Steve?.Did you?!."
Steve laughed."I guessed you know the answer already.You are just trying to make me speak and I will.I could never have loved such a boring and unattractive lady like you.I could have never done that. "
Steve gulped in as Lucy kissed him all over.Taking his lips in, the room was filled with screams of pleasure.
Hours after,Lucy wore her clothes and walked up to Lola who now looked so pale in the face. She threw her down.
"You can go now... Except you still wanna learn more."Lucy smiled.
With shaky hands,Lola took her bag and ran off. Getting to her car, Steve's voice stopped her.
"We will meet at the hall by 12 tomorrow, right?.Now that you've learned well, I would love to be yours and yours alone. "
"You bastard!..I will make sure I deal with you and that tramp of yours inside!. You deceived me Steve. You deceived me! ..."
Lola got into her car and sped off.

"Big boss, the message is clear. The Davis are back in town but they are really unaccessible.They are hard to penetrate. "
A figure lit a cigarette and the whole room was filled with smoke.
"Are you scared of the security or me?."
The bodyguard bowed."I will never be scared of them but their security seem very tight these days when Jason isn't around. "
The figure gave a silent chuckle. "Then the target would be Little Jimmy this time. So sad he has to pay for his father's crimes. "
"Boss,Jim?..Dont you feel.... "
The figure stood up suddenly and everyone in the room bowed.
He gave him a kick. "Don't you think you are being too lenient these days with the Davis?. Have you been working for them behind my back?!."
"Never boss, I would never do anything to risk us.You know that I will never."
"Good.So do as I have ordered the others.I must get the boy before 4pm this evening or else I would yank out every of your fingers from your hands. Trust me."
"Yes boss."He bowed again and left.
"Ken. Look out for that guy. Any mistake to spill us, waste him."
Someone nodded at the door.
*****************************************
Nora rushed into her home,only to find Emelia waiting for her. How could she keep this from her now?. She wanted to deal with this herself.
"You caught him with Lucy, right?"Emelia spoke as Nora's resolve broke down. She fell, crying already.
"How did you know that?.Were you spying on me?."
"No...i wasn't.I caught him with her at the mall yesterday.I wanted to tell you but I couldn't.I was scared of how you would react."
"You should have and I wouldn't have to see themselves myself!.I just want to be alone.I want to be alone."
Emelia tried to embrace her but Nora yanked her off and left for her room.
"I will come back later to check up on you, Okay?!."Emelia yelled but no response came.
****************************************
Jimmy smiled happily as he embraced his dad one last time.
"Dad,Why are you here at this hour?."
"I just missed seeing your face,what's wrong with that?. "
Jimmy stared at his dad in sarcasm.
"Everything Dad because you should be at the office, not here.Didnt you reconcile with Grandpa already?."
"Well..seem to be but I haven't made any decision yet.Jim,i will be away for two days this time and will be back before you blink. "
Jimmy blinked and Jason laughed.
"You can't be back like that. Can't you take me along with you?.I am sometimes scared of being taken away from you while in your absence."
Jason patted him lovingly. "Stop whining already.I will see what I can do. "
Jimmy screamed excitedly as passersby watched him from the school gate.
"Hey!.. You don't want the school authorities flinging us both out, do you?."
Jim embraced him. "I love you so much Dad and I need you to take good care of yourself.Be happy,okay?."
Jason grinned."Of course,baby boy."
The closing bell rang early being a Friday. Little Jimmy walked with the children out oblivious of the masked men who were targeting him from afar.
"How are we supposed to take him away?.We can't alert any security personnel."
"Lure the driver away while I take the child myself.Dont be a chick already."The other said and left.
Jimmy sat on the swing which was the favorite part of the school for him waiting for his driver.
Taking his medications from his bag, he gulped them with the bottle of water he held.
Ronald removed his gloves quickly and walked straight to Jimmy.
"Hi, I am here to pick Janice,do you know where she might be?."
"I don't know anyone called that and besides my Dad has warned me not to talk to strangers.So if you wouldn't mind..."
Jimmy got down and began to walk faster, his hunch couldn't be wrong.This was the same man he saw that night.Should he let his Grandpa know first?.
All of a sudden, Ronald brought out a container and sprayed it. Before Jimmy could take a step again, he fell unconscious.

Chapter FiveContinous rings on her phone,Lola knew it was none other than Emelia, her mum and those who were expecting her at the engagement party but she wasn't ready to be scolded or insulted.She had decided to do one thing and that is.... Picking up her bag, she headed out. If she said she knew where she was going to, then that was a blatant lie but what matters more was going to a place where no one would notice her presence. Stopping at a shop,she had wanted to ask for a place to go but recalling that her mum would have possibly done things to search for her by all cost, Nora kept on driving. *****************************************Mrs Turner walked up to Emelia who just came in with Chris.

The gunshots triggered her heart condition, so bad that she fell but she regained her balance as she looked at the boy. The footsteps continued as she tried to make it out of the building, following the door by the left side of the last floor trying to escape. "Don't worry little guy" she said. As Jimmy was struggling to make sense of his site. Remembering the thud she just heard it was clear to her that whoever kidnapped Jimmy is angry and has changed his mind about any peaceful negotiation. With Ronald dead, the boss issued a command that Jimmy should be captured before his father gets to their location. Not knowing someone else is with Jimmy. Lola was a few minutes away from her car as Jimmy started grunting, she put him down and assured him he was going to be safe.

Chapter 8The keyboard had its own rhythm as Lola Consistently punched the keys, Lost in time. Trying the best she could, to make up for all the days she's been off work. The wine glass stood next to the books that were carefully arranged on the table, dripping wet, from the ice that she mixed with the wine. Work has never been this hectic and life threatening for Lola. And she is not someone to easily give up on something. She would go from the balcony to the fridge to take a look outside or fix herself a drink, the streets has few passerbys but one could really use the gentle touch of the air that makes the skin feel alive in a way, the view always feels like something new whenever she looked, the tall glass buildings and the fumes from the busy factories near the blocks, the anticipation of the sunset. But none of that gave her the relaxation she was hoping for, she dangled the chair searching for ideas as she looked bluntly at the high ceilings. She was stuck, her ideas tanked. Th

Chapter Nine Jason thought that he could use his time alone so he took one of the cars and made a drive to the city to grab a bite. The weather was great and he still had time before duty called, so a few minutes in the city wouldn't be a bad idea. The Chums is not usually a place you would find a person like Jason but something about how they made their dishes reminded him of his own mother's cooking.He got in and made his way straight to the nearest table thinking that if people stared at him for a short time they might recognize him. He took a table and in a minute the waiter came like a flash and took his orders.The Chums is a 49 minutes drive from where he lived but he didn't care, he comes for the food if need be but today it was mostly about his solitude.While waiting for the waiter to arrive with his palate he brought out his phone and dialed "Lola"[Phone ringing][Jason] hello?

Chapter TenSteve claimed they had a little misunderstanding about their engagement, pointing out it might be the reason she fled but he knew exactly what made Lola ghost everyone. Back at the hospital it was 12:30PM and Jason had just arrived at the hospital with Daffodils and a card in between that boldly read "hospital gowns look horrible on you, can you permit a rescue?" She read and smiled and he dropped the flowers on the table, just beside the door.She got up and leaned back to the pillow after reading the card and reached out for a hug from Jason. He asked Emelia but was told by Lola that she went home to make something and prepare for her return as he had said earlier that he would be coming to drive her home. Hospital Halls are usually growded by noon, because it's when patients that are making progress in their recovery usually go for a walk around the hospital but from where Lola was admitted, it was different. Her ward was a private one that was separated from the hospi

Chapter eleven "father has never had a big meeting like the one he was in, and he has never met half of the men he saw, he guessed he had a lot to learn, like his father would always say."Mr Kelvin and Lola were busy skulking around the compound while Jason was still puzzled. The compound had a lot of space, enough that the air roamed Free. The villa being built in the mountains outside the city had a lot of trees surrounding it in the Dept of nature which made its surroundings calm and cozy. The leaves swung to any direction the air took them until they got stucked or stepped on by the walks of Lola and Mr Kelvin, the atmosphere was so comforting that it made Lola take deep breaths, Talking about how expensive the houses might be. Mr Kelvin walked behind Lola, encouraging her to take her time in appreciating her view. They got the water fountains at the center of the garden and Lola made her rest. The gardens were carved diligently in shapes and sizes that took Lola time to make s

Chapter Twelve Emelia was still trying to put together surprise decorations for her best friend Lola when Chris called. [Phone ringing][Chris] please tell me you've had some rest. She smiled and left for the balcony, leaving the balloons, lights and flowers on the floor and some floating around the Halls. If there's two people she would rather talk to, it would be Chris and Lola but she was disconnected, because service on the villa was out, to make anyone that visited to be in the moment. So when she heard from Chris it made her worries for Lola fizzle away for a while. He had a long call with Emelia that made her unaware of the little mouth-watering dish she hoped to make in the kitchen and the mess she had made of the kitchen trying to Make something from the fridge that was barely empty. She explained to Chris of Lola's condition and he sympathized with her, telling her she could stay as long as she wished to with Lola. They both talk about Chris's father, of his insistence

Jason was receiving an award for his book that he'd published and Jimmy was in the city, so he did the best thing he could before running off to Florence. It has been a long time since he'd been around but the event that had unfolded recently had taught him to spend more time with family. Encaenia took place in the Sheldonian - a long and rambling ceremony conducted in Latin for six distinguished persons though, in Lola's mind, this was a celebration mainly for Jason. At last, he was receiving the recognition he deserved. After the ceremony, she stood and watched him with pride as he mingled with guests. She had met Jason briefly before the ceremony and they had hugged, but hardly spoken; too many people and not enough time. She thought at first that it was perhaps the way it should be, with no time for sentimentalism, but no, she decided that it was not the way it should be. They needed more time. "Do you know all these people?" Malik whispered."No." Lola shook her head, even tho

Night had fallen over Shekina. Jimmy stood alone on the porch of the fieldstone house enjoying the sounds of laughter and reunion drifting through the screened door behind him. The mug of coffee in his hand had granted him hazy reprieve from his mounting exhaustion, and yet he sensed the reprieve would be fleeting. The fatigue in his body went to the core. "You slipped out quietly," a voice behind said.He turned. McEwan's grandmother emerged, her silver hair shimmering in the night. Jimmy gave a tired smile. "I thought I'd give your family some time together." Through the window, he could see McEwan talking with her brother. Sophie's grandmother came beside him. "Mr. Jim, when I first heard of Esquibel's murder, I was terrified for McEwan's sake. Seeing her standing in my doorway tonight was the greatest relief of my life. I cannot thank you enough."Jimmy had no idea how to respond. Although he had offered to give McEwan and her grandmother time to talk in private, she had asked

"Davis?" McEwan was standing outside the car, looking back at him. "Are you coming?" She was holding the rosewood box, which captain Romano had returned to them. Inside, both cryptex had been reassembled and nested as they had been found. The verse was locked safely at its core - minus the shattered vessel of vinegar.Making their way up the long gravel path, Jimmy and McEwan passed the famous west Wall of the chapel. Casual visitors assumed this oddly protruding wall was a section of the chapel that had not been finished. The truth, Jimmy recalled, was far more intriguing. Shekina chapel's entrance was more modest than Jimmy expected. The small wooden door had two iron hinges. The chapel would be closing soon, and as Jimmy pulled open the door, a warm puff of air escaped, as if the ancient edifice were having a weary sigh at the end of a long day. Entering with McEwan, Jimmy felt his eyes reaching across the famous sanctuary and taking it all in. Although he had read accounts of She

The mist had settled low as Amorth limped into a quiet hollow out of sight. Kneeling on the wet grass, he could feel a warm stream of blood flowing from the bullet wound below his ribs. Still, he managed.The fog made it look like heaven here.Raising his bloody hands, he prayed, but most importantly he prayed for his mentor… Myositis… that he would not fade with the sands of time. The fog was swirling around him now, and Amorth felt so light that he was sure the wisps would carry him away. Closing his eyes, he said a final prayer.His pains at last began to fade, and he knew Myositis was right. It was late afternoon when the London sun broke through and the city began to dry. Andrie Romano felt weary as he emerged from the interrogation room and hailed a cab. Sir Albert Rodriguez had noisily proclaimed his innocence, and yet from his loose ranting about the Archstone, secret documents, and mysterious brotherhood, Roman suspected the sly historian was setting the stage for his lawye

Myositis's body had endured many kinds of pain, and yet the searing heat of the bullet wound in his chest felt profoundly foreign to him. Deep and grave. Not a wound of the flesh… but closer to the soul. He opened his eyes, trying to see, but the rain on his face buried his vision. He could feel powerful arms holding him, carrying his limp body like a rag doll, his black cassock flapping. Lifting a weary arm, he mopped his eyes and saw the man holding him was Amorth. He was struggling down a sidewalk, shouting for a hospital, his voice a heart-rending wail of agony. His red eyes were focused dead ahead, tears streaming down his face. "My son," Myositis whispered, "you're hurt." Amorth glanced down, his visage contorted in anguish. "I am sorry sorry, Father." He seemed almost too pained to speak. "No," Myositis replied. "It is I who am sorry. This is my fault. I was too eager. Too fearful. You and I were deceived." Myositis was unconscious when the doors of St Luke's hospital hiss

Jimmy and McEwan moved slowly down the north aisle, keeping the shadows behind the ample pillars that separated it from the open nave. Despite having traveled more than halfway down the nave, they still had no clear view of the tomb. The sarcophagus was recessed in a niche, obscured from this oblique angle."At least there's nobody over there," McEwan whispered.Jimmy nodded, relieved. The entire section of the nave near Klaus' tomb was deserted. "I'll go over," he whispered. "You should stay hidden just in case someone-"McEwan had already stepped from the shadows and was headed across the open floor."-is watching," Jimmy sighed, hurrying to join her.Crossing the massive nave on a diagonal, Jimmy and McEwan remained silent as the elaborate sepulcher revealed itself in Tantalus increments… a black-marble sarcophagus… a reclining statue of Klaus… two winged boys… a huge pyramid… and… an enormous orb."Did you know about that?" McEwan said, sounding startled.Jimmy shook his head, als

Jimmy had not gotten his eyes off the computer screen since the search began. He was starting to get worried.Anita Istredd was in the adjoining room, preparing hot drinks. Jimmy and Sophie had inquired unwisely if there might be some coffee brewing alongside the tea Istredd had offered, and from the sound of the microwave beeps in the next room, Jimmy suspected their request was about to be rewarded with instant Nescafe.Finally, the computer pinged happily."Sounds like you got another," Istredd called from the next room. "What does it say?"Jimmy looked at the screen, disappointed.They sat patiently in front of the screen and waited through two more dubious returns. When the computer pinged again, nothing interesting happened.Istredd peeked back in the doorway, holding a packet of instant coffee. "You don't want the full text," Istredd called.

Copus peccate's headquarter in London is a modest brick building. Amorth had never been here, but he felt a rising sense of refuge and asylum as he approached the building on foot. Despite the rain, Beardsley had dropped him off a short distance away in order to keep the limousine off the main Streets. Amorth didn't mind the walk. The rain was cleansing.At Beardsley's suggestion, Amorth had wiped down his gun and dispose of it through the sewer grate. He was glad to get rid of it. He felt lighter. His legs still ache from being bound all the time, but he had endured far greater pain. He wondered, though, about Rodriguez, who Beardsley had left bound in the back of the limousine. The Briton certainly had to be feeling pain by now."What will you do with him?" Amorth had asked Beardsley as they drove over here.Beardsley had shrugged. "That is a decision the Teacher would make." There was an odd finality in his tone.Now, as Amorth approached the building, the rain began to fall harder

Jimmy still felt shaken as he and McEwan came from the rain and entered the library. The primary research room was as Rodriguez had described it - a dramatic octagonal chamber dominated by an enormous round table with twelve flat-screen computer workstations. On the far side of the room, a reference librarian was just pouring a pot of tea and settling in for the day of work. "Good morning," she said in a beautiful British accent, leaving the tea and walking over. "May I help you?""Thank you, yes please," Jimmy replied. "My name is-""Jimmy Davis." She gave a pleasant smile. "I know who you are."For instance, he feared Romano had put him on English television as well, but the librarian's smile suggested otherwise. Jimmy had not gotten used to these moments of unexpected celebrity. Then again, if anyone on earth were going to recognize his face, it would be a Librium in a religious studies reference facility."Anita Istredd," the librarian said, offering her hand.
