87. Love or Acceptance. ~DelmundoI had no desire to leave this aquarium but whether I wanted to or not, duty called. It was so tranquil just sitting down to watch animals swim about without a care for what was going on with the surface world. In a way, I envied those fishes because all they had to do was eat or be eaten. Here I was trying to take the helm of power father had left behind. I was going to have to meet people I had no interest in meeting and kiss ass. At least I had Pamela by my side. She made everything bearable when she was with me. I was going to bring her to the public unveiling of my swearing-in as the new chief executive officer of The Sisyphus House. Anton Shane, whom I was reluctant to come to see had forgiven me for my past transgressions. I had ghosted him a long time ago due to how close he was with my father. They had been best of friends since they were kids. While my father had gone on to marry my mom and had me in return, Anton had neither married no

88. Gone Baby Gone ~Delmundo "I have never been to this part of town before, Stephan, it is so beautiful here," Pamela said with excitement as her eyes lit up at the sight of trees and aesthetic buildings.I smiled lightly at how amazed she was by the little things around her. It was like taking a child on a field trip."We should do this more often, I like how excited you are," I told her."That would be great, Stephan, I would like that very much," She said and looked out of the window mesmerized by all the things her eyes could see.I focused on the road and I thought about the call I had gotten earlier. I did not doubt in my mind that Lydia was behind Dwayne calling me. She had kept on with her threat. She wanted to give my birthright to an outsider.That was unforgivable but it was a battle for another day. I knew that Dwayne was plotting his next move as I drove but I could not be bothered. He had no guts to face me by himself, not without the help of his girlfriend.It

89. RESCUED?~PAMELA I was at the mercy of unknown men who just killed Stephan Delmundo.The hands that gripped me were strong and vise-like. I was too distraught to fight back when the men in identical leather jackets with a bold emblem of a black flowing river emblazoned on the back and chest.They grabbed me as soon as Stephan's Audi erupted into a fiery blast and knocked me to the floor. I could still feel the heat as the shock wave crashed into me. It felt so surreal that we were in the car moments ago.Although unwanted, the scene played over and over in my head as I reluctantly recalled how the blast had thrown Stephan up in the air and far across the parking lot.He had even been on fire by the time that I was whisked away. I had been screaming at the top of my lungs as the unknown men dragged me into their vehicle. I was numb throughout the ride to the destination.My mind was already on the forbidden subject that I tried so hard to ignore but it gnawed relen

A Risky Freedom. ~Pamela "Need I say that you are the most peculiar woman that I have ever come across," Dwayne said to me. I frowned at him as he poured me another jug of orange juice. "In what way?" I asked. "You were sad he was dead and now you are scared that he is alive. It makes me wonder about the kind of relationship you are involved in," He said to me. Not healthy. I thought but I did not answer him. "We have a relationship, just not the usual kind," I told him. "I assume he is the tortured soul and brooding type," He remarked. I shot him a mildly surprised look and he nodded thoughtfully. "Sorry love. You got stuck with one of those," He told me in a solemn tone. I could not tell if he was joking or not but I did not want to give him the satisfaction that he had guessed right. "What is wrong with the dark and broody type?" I blurted out in defiance. I could not tolerate Stephan being disrespected and I was not sure why. "Too much drama, they will not open up, sec

A Sojourn in His Mind. ~Delmundo I had no idea where I was or how I got here but I was a bit familiar with the surrounding. I had been walking for a while now through a thick forest and had barely reached my destination before I realized that I no idea of where I was going. Despite how long I had been walking, I did not feel tired. I felt more anxious than weary and I did not know why. I kept on till I was out of the forest and a house revealed itself in the clearing. It was the Delmundo mansion. The mansion looked different and the surrounding area overgrown with unwanted plant. It looked almost deserted and eerily quiet. The atmosphere was haunting and ominous. I kept moving toward the house, passing through thick bushes that had grown from neglect. The grass was wet from dew drops and I felt wet weed slid on my ankles and feet. There was no sun in the sky but it was day light. However, the clouds were a hue of dark and grey and the constant smell of a threatening rain assail

A Sojourn in His Mind II~Delmundo This made no fucking sense in any way whatsoever. I stood there, dumbfounded and gaping at the apparition that glared back at me with a mixture of disdain and malice. I did not want to believe what was happening but it all felt so real. There was something very malicious about the way he was watching me, as if he knew something that I did not and I was afraid of what it was. I stood there rooted to where I stood as I tried to find some semblance of sanity.I was stuck in a confused state because I did not know what to do next. Myself or me or whoever I was looking at did not seem so friendly to approach. What the fuck was I even going to say to him. I mustered up some courage and took my first step towards the direction of where I was having a good time. I had no idea what to expect from myself as I got nearer. The ladies beside me appraised me like they knew me, which made sense in a way. A space was created for me and I sat down. One of the lad

The Other Man.~Pamela It was well deep into the night when I woke up. Another tray of food had been laid out for me as I sat up but I was not in any mood to eat anything. I was still nervous and uncomfortable about where I was. As my eyes cleared my situation dawned on me.The irony was a sad one if I really thought about it and I did. I put my bare feet on the wooden floor of the cabin situated somewhere in the deep mountain forest of the Nepal. I had no idea why it was so far from home but I guess if you ate going against someone like Stephan, you cannot be too careful.The room I stayed in was fairly lit with hanging lamps that shined with yellow light. My ears was ringing from the deep silence as I made my way out of the room. I had no idea what the time was but I was sure that it was late.There was a door that had a stairway attached to it. It felt like I was walking down a basement but it led to a bigger floor. The wooden stairs creaked with each step I took. I perceived smok

94. Pain~Delmundo The lights blinded my eyes as they tried to come into focus. It was as if I was using them for the first time. I blinked severally as the white fluorescent of the hospital hurt my eye but I was defiant. I felt like shit as my eyes finally became stable and focused. I felt like the floor of a cab or like I had been running through by a locomotive train. I was in a hospital garb and I had on a neck brace. I felt the needle inserted into my veins as cold fluids entered my system. I had never felt so weak and vulnerable before in my entire life. I had an inkling about who was behind the attempt at my life. I was having a little trouble trying to recall what had happened exactly and I was anxious that there was something I had forgotten. My anxiety increased as time went by and I kept trying to recollect what was lost in my head. I squinted in pain and discomfort as my head began to pound. I groaned as I realized that I was no longer feeling comfortable. Everything h
