Mummy, let's go to daddy! Amelia's trouble
Amelia barged into a dimmed bedroom, looking sad and pitiful. “Asher,” she looked around the room but no one was in. “Asher?” She dropped her handbag on the bed and walked into the bathroom, still, there was no one. She walked back to the bed, got in and curled herself under the sheets, sniffing and crying. … In Nairaland… Asher Could be seen entering a hotel with Roy and a cold–faced guy. “Boss, Miss Amelia used your name again to get into A&M.” Roy reported. “How many companies are participating in the auction?” Asher asked, ignoring what Roy said about Amelia like he didn’t hear it. “Ah, 15 companies,” Roy replied. “Who is our strongest competitor?” “A&M Conglomerates and Walkers group,” Roy answered. “Mn.” “Boss, I’ve been thinking, why did you allow Cullen to become the acting president of Walkers’ group? I thought you–“ “No matter who wins, it mustn’t be the Walkers group, do I make myself clear?” Asher said with a hardened voice. Ignoring Roy’s question again. “Y

A week later… At Nairaland’s airport… A man and two dashing kids of around four to five years old got out of the plane. The boy was wearing a two-piece black and red joggers and jacket. His long hair was framed to one side of his face, covering one eye. On his left wrist was a red watch, while his right hand held a camera. At intervals, he took pictures of views he loved. Beside him was a cute girl of the same age, wearing a white top and black jacket on a black and white mid-thigh pleated skirt. Her knee-length black boot looked overly cute on her. On one shoulder was a small sized pink backpack. She wore a black watch on her left hand, while holding brown shades in her right hand. “Nairaland’s airport is not as bad as I thought,” the boy said as he took a picture. “Indeed, I told you, you’ll like this place,” the handsome man smiled. “I don’t think so, I smell bad energy.” The cute little girl with hair packed in two ponytails said curtly. “Has there ever been a thing that i

"Come out here," Asher ordered. "Why should I?" Hearing that cute but mischievous voice, Asher's heart softened. "Why were you taking pictures of me? Come out with your camera.""Ha, you're so smart and handsome. Any wonder why I'm interested in taking pictures of you?" The child didn't deny it like he expected, causing Asher to raise a brow. The child is brave. He rested his back on the door to another cubicle and folded his hand on his chest, "What right do you have to do that?" he asked."I'm not sure about rights but I know that pretty things should be photographed, so don't blame me. Instead, you should be honored that I'm interested in taking pictures of you. Aside from those I love, I don't take photos of humans."Asher smiled but before he could speak further, the entrance door was pushed open and Aiden's guards barged in, surrounding the place."Young Master, are you alright?” one of the guards asked, almost panicking.“Obviously,” Aiden responded, looking weirdly at th

Inside the event hall of the hotel, with lots of seats filled with people, both from the entertainment industry, the business world and even the dark world, Asher Walkers, walked to the last table and sat together with CEO Mika who also has a thing for back seats. CEO Mika, who was wearing dark shades and sitting quietly, ignored the person who just took the same table as her. She didn't find it relevant to look at him. Her eyes were busy scanning through the crowd to see if she would spot Ash, the underworld lord. Asher on the other hand, only gave CEO Mika a fleeting glance before focusing on the stage. Sitting among those at the front tables were Mrs. Wales and Cullen Walkers.After a few more minutes, the hostess walked onto the stage and greeted everyone, introduced herself, and the purpose they were gathered. "There are a few outstanding items to be sold here today. From the legendary Princess Xinyan's jewelry to DD group of companies. The first item on our list is…" Neither

What is he doing here? isn't Asher the CEO of Walkers group, so… Mrs. Wales narrowed her eyes. For some reason, she felt there was more to Asher being here than meets the eye. She glanced at Cullen but the guy was focused on his discussion with his Assistant. Mrs. Wales put Asher's matter to the back of her mind and continued with the bidding. "$450,000!""$450,001!" CEO Mika Raised her placard again. She ignored the weird glances she was receiving and focused on the stage. Seeing her nonchalant disposition, a small smile crept onto Asher's lips. He suddenly found himself liking this lady.With every number that Mrs. Wales called, CEO Mika increased it by $1 until the price shoot up to an overly outrageous numbers."$1,000,000!""$1,000,001" At this point, some men who didn't believe the shit about the wonders of the necklace, were convinced that the two were being stupid, fighting over some irrelative fallacy that was imbedded on the jewelry by some jobless people .

Now, it was only CEO Mika and Cullen Walkers that were remaining in the race. But that didn't make Cullen feel relaxed at all. He knew that the Underworld Lord, Ash, was somewhere and hadn't said a thing. Also, Asher seems to be here for the company too, Cullen has no plans on giving up. Unbeknownst to him, he'd be kicked out soon enough. "$31,000,000!" Cullen yelled."$35,000,000!" CEO Mika raised her placard. The big shots finally decided to join. "$50,000,000" "$55,000,000!""$56,000,000!""$60,000,000!""$100,000,000!" Cullen yelled. "$500,000,000!" Mika shot the bid high.Everyone paused and looked behind them, it was CEO Mika again. They sighed, such a rich woman. A lot of bidders withdrew, leaving three people. "$600,000,000!""$800,000,000!" Cullen raised his placard. "$1,000,000,000!" The new businessman yelled. Everyone stayed silent for a long time before CEO Mika proclaimed; "$12,000,000,000!"Cullen wanted to bid but stopped and looked at CEO Mika. He balled his

Meanwhile, in a corner, Cullen had been spying on the two bigshots at the parking lots. Seeing that CEO Mika had left without wasting time, his lips curled into a smirk. "Robert, secure an appointment with CEO Mika for me," he commanded."Yes, sir!" His Assistant immediately got to work. Asher, on the other hand, got into his car to leave but paused and looked in Cullen's direction. Their eyes met but Asher broke the contact first and got in his car. "Boss, her report has been sent." Roy, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, handed his boss the iPad he was holding. Going through CEO Mika's background check, Asher's lips curled into a faint smile. "This is not all there is," He gave the iPad back to him. "I thought so too. This report didn't talk about her childhood and everything before five years ago." "She's capable. Milo," Asher called. "Boss," the quiet guy who also goes everywhere with them, replied with his hand on the steering. "Visit the Empire, find out everyt

CEO Mika leaned forward, "Are you threatening me, Mr. Cullen Walkers?" "Pfft...Not at all… of course, not," he chuckled. "It doesn't seem like it, the ball is in your court, do what you deem fit but if you think I'll be scared, you're mistaken. I'm not interested in dealing with your company." She got up to leave but Cullen also bolted to his feet and smiled, "CEO Mika, you're taking things too seriously." He stretched his hand but CEO Mika stepped back and smiled. "Mr. Walkers, is this meeting personal?" Cullen also smiled faintly, "Actually… Yes. I–""Have a nice day," Mika didn't wait another moment and left. After she left, someone walked in with a camera."Boss," he handed the camera to Cullen. Glancing at the photos that were taken of him and CEO Mika, Cullen smiled. "You like her, don't you? I'll make sure you never get your hands on her." He said to no one. ...The next day, pictures of CEO Mika and Cullen, smiling over a meal surfaced in the business magazines with anno

Mummy, let's go to daddy! From dusk till dawn
At the hotel… Mr. Richard was amazed and proud of Anamika. Watching her teach those old men a lesson reminded him of how her mother was back then. The man sighed and emptied the glass of wine he was holding. The result of his investigation came out yesterday. Anamika is his daughter. After finding out, he told his family before embarking on the journey to seek his daughter. The Quinn family didn’t have much to say, except that they blamed him for just finding out. As for Lisa, she was having a hard time accepting the revelation. The sound of his phone ringing snapped him out of his thoughts. He picked the phone and checked the caller ID. It was an unknown number, but he decided to answer the call. “Hello,” his voice sounded. ‘Mr. Quinn, the Emperor is back from the meeting.’ Mr. Richard bolted up and hurried out of the hotel. … Arriving at the palace, he was brought to see Anamika in the throne room. Anamika hadn’t even stepped on the dais when the man entered. The father and
Mummy, let's go to daddy! Alliance Nation (2)
The other Presidents cleared their throats and shifted in their seats. They all owe debts. What if she asks them to pay up too? Scrapping their country banks together to pay off the billions they owe Hassride would crumble their economy, so, it would be better they all mind their businesses and live Country B’s president to handle his matter on his own. The old man glanced around, seeing that no president would come to his aid, he swallowed the lump of pride that was stuck at the back of his throat and sat down. “Your Majesty, it hasn’t come to that.” His heavy voice earlier suddenly went low. “As a businesswoman like you called us, we’re strict on marking our allies and curbing our enemies. If you could boldly look at our face and disregard our authority to vomit such atrocious venom, we can’t be guaranteed that you won’t stab us in the back when you see something that would jeopardize our country. So, on this basis, we hereby vote for your country’s removal from the Alliance Nati

Sitting on the deck with a bottle of wine and cake, the two watched the numerous stars in the sky. They’ve gone a bit far from their residence, but Anamika still doesn’t know why she was brought into the yacht. Neither did Asher want to say. Well, the sky looks beautiful from here, so it’s not a loss. Asher fed her a piece of cake. Just as she was about to accept it, her gaze zoomed in on a multi-coloured and sparkling something from afar. “What’s that?” she pointed. “We’re here.” The yacht moved closer until Anamika saw it was a multi-coloured waterfall! “Oh. My. God! How is this possible?!” “It’s the reason I purchased the island. It’s beautiful, right?” He asked. “No, the view is spectacular! Wow!” The yacht stopped a distance away from the waterfall where they could view it clearly. The light coming from the yacht and the multi-coloured Illumination from the waterfall brightened the area, so much so that one would almost forget it was night. “This, I must bring Emma here,
Mummy, let's go to daddy! Greedy Emperor
Asher and Anamika didn’t bring their bags, except for the roses she placed in a vase beside the window. The sun was slowly giving way to the moon by the time Anamika was done re-pruning the 99 roses and setting them in a vase of warm water to keep them alive for much longer. “We didn’t bring anything along.” She sat on the bed. From inside, she could view the surroundings, thanks to the glass doors and windows. The place only has one room, a kitchen, and bathroom. “Roy brought your necessities… everything is in here,” he opened the wardrobe for her to see. “Oh, you came prepared,” she looked down at her ring. She’s been caressing it ever since he wore it on her finger. A smile settled on her lips as she remembered his cheeky confession. Suddenly, she chuckled. “Mind breaking the good news to me?” he got into bed and hugged her from behind. “I was wondering. Since when did you realize you loved me?” She asked. Asher pulled her so she was sitting in between his legs while he wrapp
Mummy, let's go to daddy! The surprise!
For the next couple of weeks, Anamika was trying to put the country together. She must learn all there was about the country and her Ancestors, replace some workers, bestow titles on the deserving ones, amend the rules to straighten the country and lots more. It would not be easy, which was why Asher didn’t return to Country A as planned. He stayed behind to help her in whatever way he could. Inside the office, Anamika was going through some documents when Lady Seraphina, who has officially been bestowed the title of Minister of communication, knocked and entered. “Your Majesty, Richard Quinn’s men are trying to spy into our data.” “What are they trying to find?” she asked. “About your mother and you.” Anamika raised her head from the document and looked at her, “Do what you think my mother would have done if she was alive.” Lady Seraphina understood the assignment. She bowed and left. Asher entered afterwards and hugged her from behind. “You’ve been on these documents for three
Mummy, let's go to daddy! Richard Quinn's regret
While Anamika and Asher were having the greatest time of their lives, their friends and families in Country A were having a hard time believing what they were seeing on the news. How did CEO Mika suddenly become the ruler of the greatest nations to ever exist? To crown it all, their worst nightmare! Aiden was excited when he found out he was a prince but for Nadia, she was worried about her mother’s safety. Their mother didn’t tell them she was going anywhere. In fact, they thought the ruler was probably their mother’s lookalike, or twin sister, until their great grandfather explained the situation to them. As for Emma, she was lost for words on what to say. She and her husband were supposed to go for their honeymoon today, but with Anamika’s case making waves in the country, she refused to go for her honeymoon until her friend returns. Who knows, she might be facing a lot there. If only she knows that the “a lot” her friend is going through is moaning while Asher’s rod thrust in
Mummy, let's go to daddy! Shameless 'Empress'
Inside the hall… Only Asher and Anamika remained. The two continued to stare at each other. One sitting on a high level and staring down at the other. “Your Majesty, may I come closer?” “One more disrespectful word from you and you’ll have your head severed!” “Thank you, Your Majesty!” Asher closed the distance and walked up the dais. Totally ignoring her warning. Anamika’s heart danced with glee but her face was as stoic as ever. Standing right in front of her, he said. “Your Majesty, I plead not guilty.” “...” Anamika was left speechless. This man… “Hassride has always had prejudice against my country, so when they saw me, they didn’t give me the benefit of the doubt and just apprehended me,” he flattened his lips. “Oh? Are you saying my country is unreasonable?” “Your people treated me with injustice. I was chained to the wall like a criminal…I also didn’t get anything to eat. I’m starving.” His gaze softened to the likes of Aiden’s when he’s trying to talk his way out o
Mummy, let's go to daddy! A prisoner needs privacy
In a dark dungeon, Asher, Milo, and Roy were chained to the wall. Roy had sighed in helplessness for a thousand times already. “Boss, what should we do now? If help doesn’t come, we’ll be killed before we know it. I feel sorry for madam and the kids,” he sighed again. “There’s still time,” Asher responded languidly with his eyes closed. “The situation looks brim. I shouldn’t have given this suggestion. At this point, I finally realized I was stupid.” “Right, you’ve always been stupid,” Milo stole the word from his mouth. “Milo, when was the last time we spared? I think we need to compare notes after leaving here.” “All I can see is death hovering over your head,” Milo said with a straight face. He’s never one to talk too much but at this point, he was angry at himself and everyone. When they came to Hassride, they tried to spy into the country’s history but failed to find anything. Later, they found out the man who can help them was put in the dungeon. Infiltrating the dungeon
Mummy, let's go to daddy! Game of words (2)
This was exactly what Anamika wanted. To plant doubt in the man’s mind. Now, with him not knowing who to trust anymore or what to believe right now, his power has decreased greatly. Too bad she doesn’t have what it takes to back up her power of the tongue. Even though Seraphina said that everything is in place, Anamika has no idea what is in place. There was absolutely no time to discuss the preparations they’ve made, but anyhow, she’ll use her voice to fight for her rights. If it doesn’t work, then, Seraphina and the others can step in.“So, this is how you intend to unseat me? What if I kill you, I’ll be the only Emperor available and your people will no longer be able to fight against me. Before they groom another Female Emperor, it would be too late. How’s that?” Anamika smiled, “It’s your call. But do you honestly think you can kill me right here?” “No, everyone here is your supporter, and killing you in front of them would mean I leave evidence. Like you said, the people will
