Rowan prepared to go to Vivian’s apartment early the next morning. The earlier, the better. He had thought of all possible questions his grandmother might ask and answers to the questions. On his way, he picked up a lovely red dress and a pair of stunning red heels and other jewellery to go.He had told Mr. Peter that Vivian wouldn’t be able to come to work that she had to follow him for a business meeting. He arrived very early with his convoy. He was dressed in a white shirt and red suit to match with the dress he bought for Vivian.Knowing Rowan was going to arrive very early, Vivian had made sure her apartment was neat, putting everything in order. She had also cooked for him just in case he didn’t have breakfast before coming. She had pestered Piper suffocating her with duties and questions.“Is everything well arranged?” Vivian asked for the umpteenth time today.“Yes boss.” Piper taunted.Rowan knocked, making Vivian jumped, she looked around once more, making sure everything w
The Vivian that entered the room to change was not the same Vivian that left the room. No, there was a huge difference. The Vivian that entered the room could be likened to a Disney princess but the Vivian that came from the room was akin to a goddess and not just any type of goddess. She was the personification of Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty. The red gown hugged her body showing off all her curves, her slender legs gave the heels it’s own shine, the stones on the dress glowed in different colours, her make-up was top class, and she wore red and black star earrings that glimmered. She was more than beautiful, and it was enough to make the jaws of any common man fall off it hinges.“Say something.” Vivian said, giggling. Rowan expression satisfied her.“Who are you?” Rowan said, lost at the sight of the otherworldly beauty.“Who do you want me to be?” Vivian teased, biting her lower lips seductively.“My wife.” Rowan said absent-mindedly. Vivian burst out laughing, walking out of
Rowan went out through the back, and the back provided a lovely view of the sea side. They were two rocking chairs sitting by the porch. It belonged to his grandmother and grandfather. His late granddad loved sitting here late at night enjoying the cool breeze and listening to the sound of nature. He was also a big fan of fishing, that’s what he retired to after spending his life in the military, he had taught Rowan how to play chess and how to shoot at a very young age to keep him from thinking about his dead parents.“Fred.” Rowan said as he answered his call, looking out to the sea.“Sir. We’ve found the spy.” Fred reported.Rowan smiled, pumping his fist in the air. Things were working out for him, and he’ll make sure he sees this to the end.“Awaiting orders, sir.” Fred said.“Where is he now?” Rowan asked.“In his apartment.” Fred replied.“You know what to do, be careful and neat.” Rowan ordered.“Yes sir. We’ll be expecting you.” Fred hung up.Rowan sighed, PJ Brand has been r
Old Town, a very quiet town still around the axis of the city, is hardly visited by any. The people who lived here were old men and women who had chosen quietness and peace against the hustle and bustle of city life. They became farmers or cattle breeders, the city had it’s own sheriff and medical facilities, there was a two percent chance of crime, and it was the safest place to build a secret warehouse where no one knew about it.A black tinted Jeep cruised through the dusty roads heading towards a large warehouse protected by electric fence and armed guards. The Jeep stopped at the huge gates to check-in, the armed man cleared them and motioned for the gates to be opened.The mechanical sound of motor moving echoed through the barren land, the gates creaked open, and the jeep zoomed in parking a few distance away from the warehouse.The door opened, revealing Rowan, who was corporately dressed along with Max following closely behind him.Rowan adjusted his suit and took a long stri
The drive to PJ Brand from Old Town took about an hour, on arriving on company grounds. Rowan ordered Max to stay back while he went in, as he wanted to do this without interference from anyone.Guards were waiting outside to welcome him along with Rhea, the managing director, when Jason was not around. Rhea stood at the entrance of the building with two bulky bodyguards beside her, her hair flowing behind her as she adopted a business smile in welcoming Rowan.“Hello sir. Nice to meet you again.” She greeted, holding her hand out for a shake.“Good to be here.” Rowan replied, smiling, accepting her handshake.They both stepped into the building where Jason stood wearing a black suit and pants, his hair was combed back, and his hand in his pockets showed no sign of moving to greet Rowan. Rowan noticed his behaviour and smiled inwardly. If he said he didn’t expect this, that would have been a big lie. There were several reporters around taking pictures and recording videos of two of th
Just as the doctor finished snapping Mr. Parkers broken nose back to place and wrapped a bandage around his face and some plasters across the cuts on his face, he was thrown back into the holding cell. His face was swollen and red with pain, and two armed guards stood guard after him.Fred was in a spacious empty room with several guards lined up in front of him as he addressed them.“With the information present. We’ve found out that there are still more spies. It is our responsibility to find all of them, and I repeat all of them.”“Yes, sir.” They chorused standing at attention. Their face forward, chin lifted and body tensed.Fred walked over to a line where they were casually dressed. They were the tech team, usually in charge of tracing calls or setting up spy cameras in offices or houses of potential suspects. They also protect Rowan’s phone and other technological devices from being hacked. They also hack any account or device to dig out information of suspects.“You guys shou
Vivian had a long day of work and was glad to get out. She was excited as Jason had called her earlier, saying they should meet him. She sent him her workplace address, and he had promised to be there to pick her up right after work.Vivian exited the company’s building and looked around, trying to spot a familiar face. She scanned the faces at the parking space provided by the company and searched until she found a figure waving at her. She hurriedly walked over to meet Jason, who was standing by his Jeep dressed up in a black suit and pants looking very official.“Hey Viv!” Jason waved at her enthusiastically.“Jason!” Vivian and Jason ran towards each other, enveloping each other in a warm embrace. It had been several years since they last saw, and it a lot had happened ever since then.“Look at you!” Jason said, scanning her from head to toe as they pulled away from their embrace. Vivian blushed as Jason spun her around, taking in her looks.“You look as beautiful as ever, Viv.” J
News travels fast in the city. It didn’t take long for the news of a car exploding to spread from the very quiet Old Town to the main city. Now, every reporter and news outlet were all over the Town, it was finally receiving the attention it so dearly needed.Of course, this forced dear old Sheriff out of leave to attend to whatever the case was and the paperwork that came with it. Deputy Stanton was in a bit of a pickle with this, seeing as it happened on his watch and just when the Sheriff had started relaxing. He was going to have a lot of explaining to do, and it had better be a good one, or else.Rowan seethed in anger as he paced the room, his fist folding and unfolding as he tried to control his anger. Max and Fred stood opposite him as they watched him mutter to himself. They had never seen their boss so pissed before, and they don’t know what to do about it.“I can’t believe they’ll actually go to that extent to protect their ass.” Max said, breaking the thick fog of silence
