With the fire ball still tightly and heavily wrapped in the cotton cloth, it's glow couldn't be seen. Sometimes it doesn't seem like you're gonna make it out alive in some situations, I battled between life and death.
"Where is the ball of fire you stole?" Alpha Silver slammed, shaking the cage with his heavy boots.
Sam released a gaze at Ben, who stared blankly at Alpha Silver, understanding his question. Sam has less life in him now than he had when he lifted Cilia up the other time.
"I'm asking you, bastards! Where is the fireball you stole?" He chuckled, observing their mood. "If I ask that question again, I promise that one of your heads would go for an answer!" He spat, and the shock on the faces of Sam and Ben turned into grimaces of shock. He smirked, his
The sound of the alarm clock went off, a little groan was heard as the ray of sunlight which passed through an open window brightened the large room.Cassandra, a mid thirty woman with blonde hair opened her eyes, her gaze fixed to the ceiling before her. She yawned, turned to her other side of the bed and picked up her phone, her sharp blue eyes on some messages which were sent a couple of hours ago. With a frown on her face, she sat up from her bed, her fingers selling through her phone and at once, it beeped reminding her that her daily routine had just begun.She glanced at the wall clock next to her, it's exactly 7 am and she has to be at her office by 9 am but first, her workout will not be abandoned. Cassandra got out of bed with her phone placed in front of her, with a hurry, she scrolled through the screen, her e
Cassandraa quickly walked towards the elevator, she glanced at her wrist watch, a frown rested on her face because she is five minutes late for the meeting. As soon as she got out of the elevator, her workers quickly got to work as fast as they could because no one wanted to get into any problem with her.Ignoring them, she walked into another elevator, pressed the fifth floor button and the elevator quickly took her straight to her destination. Cassandra quickly got out of it, adjusted her gown and headed towards the meeting office which was a few feet from the elevator."I am so sorry that I am late" she said as she walked into the room, got to her seat, her face fixed on Mr Simon and slowly on his officials present."It's good you are here anyway" Mr Sim
The following day, Cassandra went to work early just to avoid such lateness like the previous day. As soon as she walked into the building, all her workers rushed to their seats of work and they all avoided her gaze because none of them wanted to get fired.Cassandra got out of the elevator and walked down the hallway that leads to her office. As she got closer, she saw some women sitting comfortably on a sofa kept for visitors. She ignored them and walked into her office which was not far away from where they sat.As soon as she got seated, her secretary walked into her office with her hand filled with files."Ma'am" she let out, her eyes fixed on Cassandra who placed her bag comfortably on her bag rack. She turned her attention to the brunette wondering w
"You let a man come into this institution to apply for such a position when you know clearly that it is only women that have been in this position for years," Cassandra said to Jasmine, not hiding her disappointment.Jasmine, who feared that she would eat fire, was at the edge of leaving out tears, "I'm very sorry Ma, it just slipped off my mind" she begged feeling very downcast as she wondered what her fate might be.Not knowing what to say, Cassandra rested her head on her chair, her gaze fixed on the ceiling. Right now, she is at an immediate meeting, a man has never applied for this position before and she hopes that this man fails the interview so that she can find a way of letting him out of the company.She looked down at Jasmine who was still at her knees beggi
Cassandra still couldn't believe that she employed a man into such a job. Well, right now isn't a time for her to think about anything else but to test his skill, if she should notice any bad character in him, she won't think twice but fire him with immediate effect.The next day, she got to work, as she walked into her company, Dennis walked towards her, his hands filled with files but Cassandra didn't look at him, her pace still fixed on her destination."Ma'am, the LAX company sent an email through the company's mail box" he said walking very fast as he didn't want to be left behind, they both got into the elevator and Cassandra stood still, not a friendly look could be seen on her face."What do they need?" She asked. Dennis quickly pressed the fifth fl
Feeling dejected, Dennis walked back into his office, he sat on his chair, let out a sigh and buried his head in his hands.Moving into California has been a rollercoaster for him but getting employed into the most successful company in the United States is a goal he is so delighted that he achieved. Dennis has heard so many things about Cassadra, her toughness and inability to withstand laziness from any of her workers and indeed the rumors are true.Right now, all he hope on is to get the best out of his job and be able to provide money every month to pay his rent and other expenses. His parents lived back in New York and living far away from Them is something he is thrilled to experience.Being a young man of twenty five, Dennis could say that his life h
The day rolled by fast and soon, it was the end of work time. Dennis quickly followed Cassandra to her car and watched her chauffeur drive her into the busy road.With a sigh of relief that the day's torment had ended, Dennis still couldn't believe that this was just his first day at work and it felt like he had worked there for years.He walked towards his car, got in and drove home ready for what tomorrow night brought. All he wishes for is that the meeting should go to Cassandra's favor just to avoid more cussing from her, he just can't put up with her character because his experience today has shown him how the rest of his days working here will be.Cassandra got home very worried, she has no idea why she scheduled for a meeting tomorrow when she ha
Cassandra sat at the edge of her Sofa, her eyes fixed on the TV set close to her but her mind was filled with the thoughts of Dennis.The young man's confidence is dating enough for her, deep inside her, she hopes that he comes out with a solution because right now, she needs someone's help but she doesn't know how to bring herself so low to admit that.With her gaze glued on the TV, she took a sip from the glass cup, her left foot tap slowly on the ground beneath her.Suddenly, her phone rang bringing her back to reality, she glanced at her side, picked up the phone and was surprised to know that it is no one else but Dennis calling.She felt her heart leap a beat and she wondered why, right now, all she wants to hear
"How could you let him leave Italy and come here to the US" Mrs Johnson said on the call, she glanced at Cassandra who slept peacefully on the couch."You don't expect me to keep him captive for so many years Vivian, Dennis is now an adult and he can detect for himself. It has been years since you helped me take him out of the hospital twenty five years ago but right now, I don't have any other thing to do anymore to keep him from doing what he wants". John Dutch responded as he smoked his pipe slowly."But you shouldn't have" Mrs Johnson snapped with anger,"Now things are so messed up because my daughter is in love with him without knowing that he is no one else but her nephew" she fired back, glanced at Cassandra and was happy that she is still asleep.
Mrs Johnson quickly let go of Cassandra's grip and stared at her daughter with stunned eyes. Cassandra could see her mum's face suddenly turn white as a ghost, her face not leaving her daughter."You mean you have seen Kate's son?" Her mother asked still in shock, her eyes not leaving Cassandra who nodded in affirmation.Mrs Johnson glanced at the door expecting whoever it was to walk into the house, "Where is he?" She asked as tears slowly appeared in her eyes.Cassandra looked down at the ground and back to her mother's face, she shook her head, "He isn't here with me mother but you have met him".Mrs Johnson stared at her daughter so confused, she couldn't understand Cassandra at all and w
Dennis started a Cassandra speechless, he never knew that he was a stolen child, no one told him about this.He glared deeply at Cassandra with tears in his eyes. If he is kidnapped, his parents must know something about this, they only told him that he is their foster son and nothing else."What is the name of my father?" He asked Cassandra who looked up at him.She looked like she was thinking deeply to remember his name, "His name is John Dutch" she replied and Dennis eyes some in shock.He looked at Cassandra as great shock filled his body, his ears unable to believe her words because John Dutch is no one else but the name of his foster Mafia father.
Cassandra felt her whole world collapse, she glanced at the paper in front of her and looked up at the serious face of Dennis.Right now, she knows that the truth has been let out to Dennis and lying to him won't be good at all.With agony in her heart, she closed her eyes and looked down, her eyes unable to look at Dennis face."Yes, I know who your mother is, Dennis". She confessed and her heart shattered into pieces.Dennis, frozen at where he stood, he stood straight, his shocked wide eyes fixed on Cassandra who didn't look up at him, with the guilty look on her. Dennis knew that Cassandra knew all along and didn't tell him, the realization alone broke his heart into pieces.
Dennis looked up at the blonde in front of him as he tried to understand what she meant by her words."Do you think that you will be able to say those words to me after I show you this?" Bella revealed with fury, placing a picture and a piece of paper in front of him, her eyes not leaving him.Confused, Dennis glanced at the paper in front of him, he looked up at Bella still not understanding what she was trying to point out."What is the meaning of this ?" He implored pointing at the paper in front of him.Bella smirked, "Why don't you open it and see for yourself" she pinpoint not trying to look away from him.At first, Denni
A figure of a woman was seen sitting inside her car with a stick of cigarettes, she puffed out a smoke, her eyes fixed on pedestrians who were walking down the street.With her pair of black sunglasses on, she glanced at her wristwatch, looked up and took another puff of smoke, longer and bigger this time around."Why the hell is he always late?" She asked herself, her body filled with nothing but impatience. It's already been a week since she gave him this job and now, she is here to take the result of the work she paid him for.With a frown on her face, she smoked nonstop as the car was filled with smoke, her eyes constantly checking her car.After a few minutes, she saw a huge white man in
Cassandra stared at the image right in front of her, her heart began to beat so fast than it has never been before. She couldn't move her body, it was like her whole world had just crashed down in a single blow and she thought that everything was finished right now. Hot tears welled up in her eyes as she couldn't let go of the image which stared back at her, memories kept crawling in like wildfire.Dennis noticed her indifferent behavior, he turned to her wondering what's wrong, his gaze surveying her face which felt like she had just seen a ghost."Are you all right?" He implored with a softening voice, his look very concerned.Cassandra quickly pretended like everything is fine, she looked up at him and smiled charmingly, "I am fine dear, I just feel so b
Cassandra watched Dennis walk into the nearby kitchen and arrange the food which smelled so nice. Soon, they found themselves eating and laughing heartily as the moonlight shone brightly into the house.After dinner, they both sat on the couch, Cassandra laid her head on his chest with their eyes fixed on the images on the TV set."This movie is a bit boring," Cassandra confessed, letting out a sigh."Do you want to watch anything else?".She shook her head, "No dear, I don't feel like watching a movie, I guess that's why it seems boring to me. I just want to do something else with you" she raised her head and stared at him.Dennis s
Cassandra and Dennis' relationship grew pretty quick more than they had ever expected. As their love for each other grew, so did their closeness, it was hard for anyone in the office to notice it because of course, Dennis is Cassandra's PA and they didn't display this love out in public."We love each other Cassandra,why can't you let people know that we are together?" Dennis asked her one night as they both went on a walk, a displeased look on his face.A worried look appeared on Cassandra's face, "We just can't Dennis" she let out feeling very overwhelmed by his question.Dennis stopped walking, he stared at her with furred eyebrows,"Are you ashamed of me Cassandra? Are you scared that people will gossip that you choose no one but your PA who is way below
