ALEXANDERI sat down for hours in my office still trying to come up with a solution as all that came to my mind was to involve the police but that was the last thing that should have come to mind. I picked up my phone on the desk letting out a deep sigh before calling the abductor's number to which he answered almost immediately."This is new, are you missing her already." He teased annoyingly but I wasn't in the mood to yell at him but instead strike a deal."I want us to talk," I told him while brushing my hair back with my fingers. I heard him snicker at the other end but wasn't fazed, I too was surprised that I was so desperate to call him just because of Aurora."And what is that if I may ask." He asked sarcastically as I frowned in disdain, I was never one to plead but here I am trying to negotiate and plead with this bastard yet I'm being laughed at."The deal, I can give you two percent of the shares and nothing more," I told him as there was a silent break between us and thun
ALEXANDER‘’ How dare they?’’ the steam coming out of the king’s head was uncontrollable on his way to pick up Aurora and could not follow any traffic law.On getting to the spot where Aurora was dropped he saw her blindfolded, rolling on the floor due to her hands being tied behind her back crying and yelling for help. He got down from his car in a hurry running toward her with so much anger and concerned ‘’ Oh God Aurora, are you okay’’ he said making his way towards the office cable that was used in tying her hands together, he pulled her closed and took off the blindfold. ‘’ Don’t worry you're safe now’’ he whispered into her ears and pulled her into his arms while she was drooling in tears. ‘’ Thank you’’ Aurora said wiping her tears, she got up dusted off the dirt on them er, and left him where he knelt. He was surprised and upset but knowing how things were before she got kidnapped he got up and ran after her. ‘’You don’t plan on walking all the way home, do you?’’ king as
“So Max was the one behind all after all” king said looking at the floor trying hard to not believe he got played by that son of a Gun.“Anyways please for the main time I suggest you stay at my place to we are sure you are better and safe and out of danger,” King said to Aurora“it's fine you don’t have to worry about me once the last of this drip flows into my vein I will be good as new and be able to go home” Aurora replied with a strange smile on her face.“I will have the guest room ready once you are done with your drip my driver will take you home so you can grab some of your things, Aurora I know you can handle yourself but as your boss, it is my duty to make sure you are safe and the moment those imbeciles called me for a negotiation you became my responsibility with that, Good night Aurora. He finished his statement without waiting for her reply and went to his room.“If that is what he wants then fine I’m staying “She giggled and went to bed.Leaving for work the next morni
Getting to King’s house-made Mark realize that King has never actually invited anyone to his house for company dinner or sort not to talk of a meeting. “Whoever Knows this Max guy should advise him to quit before King finally loses it,” Mark said to himself making his way toward the bell. “Welcome Mark, I am so sorry I asked you to come over when you should be at home resting”. King apologized to Mark knowing fully well that what he was doing was mostly for his gain than that of the company. “It's fine Mr. King, so how did the recording go” Mark decided to change the topic. “One more person will be joining us, you can come out Aurora,” King said with his locked on Aurora who was waiting behind the door the whole time.Before Mark arrived, Aurora went towards King’s room to let him know dinner was finally ready she knows how stressed he was but most importantly she wanted to know how the meeting with Max went considering the mood he was ever since he heard Max was behind her kidn
King grab his keys, left the house, and drove to his parent's residence only to meet Max at the dining table comfortably eating the food his mum made, smiling mischievously. “Hi, mu,m” the king s said with a forced smile still staring at Max who acted all cool like nothing was going on. “Come and have a sit, thanks to your friend I get to see your face and feed you,” his mum said, patting his back and leading me to his chair. King’s dad could tell something was up the moment Max came in, King never brought home friends when he was still living with them and he wouldn’t have sent his friend over all by himself with all the security he installed lately. “So Max, tell me how you and King met” King’s dad decided to play along, watching his son play. It's cool means there is so much to him just coming for dinner. “Well we met through work, King is a workaholic and so am I so we are more of the same specie,” Max said with a wide smile still eating the food before him without raisi
AURORAOur lips touched and I quickly moved away from him, standing in silence was more awkward by the minute so I decided to continue what I was doing."That was awkward." Mr. King chuckled as I began to cut some onions not caring if I didn't know what I was doing. How could a grown-up woman not know how to make pasta? I felt disgraced as I felt his gaze on me."You know you shouldn't just stand and stare, do something." I pouted my lips as he glanced away and began helping me make the pasta."How can you not know how to make pasta?" He asked and I was almost shocked with my spit, I acted like I hadn't heard him as I chopped the veggies."You don't have a cook?" I asked randomly as I had noticed it."I cook myself." He answered and I smiled."That's cool." I commended."It's not nice that you don't know how to cook but I can teach you." He offered, I stared at him in shock at what he said, he didn't seem bothered about it as he put on his apron and I turned away hiding my blushing fa
AURORAI got out of the car and walked to the door knocking and waiting for a response, I smiled to myself as joy gushed through my veins. I was more than happy to be here, I missed my family so much and feel guilty I haven't seen them in a long time. The door slowly opened and a head with gray hair poked out."Aurora?" My mom's eyes widened in surprise as she opened the door fully, letting herself out and engulfing me in a warm hug."I miss you very much." I cried hugging her back."Come in already." She said as she led me in, it was just the same way I had left it. I asked Mr. Smith to bring in the groceries as I got along with my mom. We talked for hours about everything and I was more than happy I had dropped by to visit. I left as soon as. As it was getting dark as o didn't want Mr. King to be worried about me staying out late. I walked into the house and met Mr. King pacing back and forth worriedly, he stopped immediately we licked eyes, and walked towards me in fuming anger."W
AURORAI slowly rolled on the bed tired as my body ached in pain. The deeds of last night were quite evident on my body, it was close to impossible to get up but I mustered the strength to get up from the bed. I looked around the room but Mr. King was nowhere to be found, I noticed I was still naked and sticky down there which was irritating, I wrapped the sheets around me, taking my sprawled clothes on the floor, and made my way out Io my room, ensuring he didn't see me running like a whore. I took a shower and got ready for work as I still needed my job.I walked downstairs and was about to go out when I saw Mr. King waiting for me outside, I tried to hide the embarrassment I felt as I recalled myself screaming and moaning last night."Good morning sir." I greeted them once I was inside the car sitting beside him."Morning, did you sleep well?" He asked and I nodded so as not to blurt nonsense as my brain was not coordinating right now.U saw him smile at the corner of my eyes and I
Our happily ever after Preparation has began for the wedding ceremony, finally after two years of war and near-death experience they are finally getting married. “I am so happy for you my dear, you are getting married!” Aurora’s mum said excitedly has she hugged her daughter. “I remember the day I was getting married___” “For the hundredth time mum, You’ve said that story like a thousand time now but can just stay my side and comfort me and tell em I am going to be ok and that you love me and that you are proud of me and that____” Aurora could not stop talking and her mum gave her a tight hug. “I am so proud of you, you are going to be okay, King loves you and you are in good hands, go get married my dear, married live is sweet” Her mum said and gave her a peck. “Aunt, The twins won't stop crying” Lilith rushed into Aurora’s room. “Oh, I will take it from there” Aurora’s mum said and rushed out of the room to go check on the twins. “Look at you in white!” Lilith teased and sat
“Woah, I think my account is empty. I can't afford to check how much I have left” Jerry joked as he saw the debit notification dropping on his phone.They all burst into laughter from his joke but soon they all received the same debit and soon they were making a joke of themselves.“I am glad I am not the only one experiencing this debit,” Jerry said, still laughing.“I am glad you decided to ask Georgia to marry you, both of you deserve to be together given what you’ve been through together,” Mr. King said and patted Mark on his shoulder.“I know, I hope she feels the same way” Mark said looking down, he dropped the petals on his hands on the floor and walked slowly to take a seat.Mr. King and Jerry walked toward him and sat next to him in their garden.“After what happened that night, when I was in a coma at the hospital I heard Georgia cry and blame herself for what happened to me that night, every night at the hospital she would cry and pray that I would wake up, do you know she
“Lilith, you have to get ready today for his burial ceremony, I get that you are sad about it, the little time you spent together meant a lot to you but you still have to attend” Jerry comforted Lilith.“I can't believe he is gone, I don't want to believe it” Lilith said in denial.Jerry looked at her and smiled, he pulled her into his arms and rocked.“What about Aurora?” Lilith asked with a worried look on her face.He sighed and nodded his head.“She is with Georgia upstairs,” Jerry replied.“I should go check on her, I am sure she is more hurt than I am” Lilith said and made her way out of the room to check on Aurora.“I’ll come with you” Jerry offered and followed Lilith to Aurora’s room.“Ok” she replied._________“Hey guys!” Lilith said as she opened the door after knocking.She saw Arora sitting in front of her dressing table with a black flowing dress on.Aurora turned around and saw Lilith walk into the room also dressed in black.“You’re here,” Aurora said barely.“Yea, of
“Hey!Hey! Look at me don't do this please I am begging you please!” Tears flowed out of Aurora’s eyes as she saw Mr. King was covered in blood with two bullets one on his right arm and the other in his stomach without an exit point which means the bullet is still stuck inside him, which is bound to cause a lot of internal bleeding.I__I__Lo_ve __you Aurora” Mr. King stuttered as blood kept rushing out of his mouth.A sharp pain from Aurora's head, it was like her head was going to split in two.“Hey!“Hey!“So you brought my mum, dad and Charles?”“Of course u know you miss them”“So can I call you sweet names when we are together?”“Will you marry me King?”“Will you marry me Aurora?”“I love you forever Aurora”“I love you forever King”“No! My love no please don't leave me, I remember___ I remember everything, so please fight my love fight please, I missed you so much” Aurora bawled out still holding on to Mr. King’s hands.Mr. King smiled and tried to place his hands on Aurora’s f
“Don is out of the picture, now let's get down to business shall we?” Max said as he used the gun with him to itch the back of his head.“There is only one way out, Take Aurora and leave and I will help King get to safety,” Olive suggested to Max.They both turned toward Aurora and Mr. King “Make your choice!” they both said in unison.Mr King pulled back Aurora to himself “in your wildest dreams” He said as he held Aurora firmly.“Do you think she will let us go in peace, just take a look at her, can you see the way she is staring at you? She will never let us go alive and you know it!” Aurora blurted out.Max turned to Olive “Do you think I am not aware about that?” Max said with a mysterious smile on his face.Olive gave him a weird look “Well as long as you don't lay a finger on King we're good” Olive said admitting that she did have the thought of killing the both of them.Max turned to her “And so you are saying, if we leave you will let us go without laying a finger on Aurora e
“BREAKING NEWS!”‘The President of JETTING HOLDINGS was said to be kidnapped by Don Gonzales with his accomplices Max Washington and Olive BakerThey were said to be located outside the city and also there has been an accident blocking entrances out of the city, making it difficult for the police or anyone to do anything at the moment.Police officers around the town where Don was said to have placed his hostages have been alerted and are all doing ground checks to find Mr. King, Miss Aurora, Attorney Mark and Georgia, Lilith Washington, and Jerry Smoke.The location was given but the spot was not mentioned in the tip we received from Mr. King before he went out of contact.So if you are out there out of the city in the following location that is displayed on this screen please help us out, helicopters have been dispatched as well.“Hang in there Mr. King we are coming to your rescue” The reporters ended the information.And just as she said in her report on the news, helicopters were
Aurora ran over to Georgia.“Are you alright?” Aurora asked as she searched her but there was no gunshot, not even a scratch on her body.“I’m fine, I'm ok!” Georgia said as she could not also believe that Don did shoot her.They all look at Don with confusion written all over their faces.“What are you doing?” Aurora asked as she was using her body to block Don from firing again if he was going to.Don just stood there like he was lost as well, he had a look of disbelief on his face.“Well, I guess, you are a chicken as well then,” Olive said as she used the gun on her hands to itch the back of her ear.“Nah, I don't miss, I have never missed,” Don said with a smile on his face and he slowly walked back to his corner.Lilith and Aurora looked around Georgia again but there were no bullet holes or whatsoever.“What game are you playing?” Georgia yelled.“Just get this over with Don!” Georgia yelled again.“Ok let me give you a hint, I did fire but where did I fire at or by any chance,
While the argument was going on, Don saw how Olive continued to struggle to set herself free but the rope tied to her chair where so sight she could not set loose no matter how hard she struggles.Don took the opportunity and walked up to Olive, he pulled her away to a separate corner, without anyone noticing due to the chaos between Max, Aurora, Lilith, Georgia and Mark.“Who would you kill if I gave you the gun instead?” Don asked“Aurora and Max, they are the biggest pest of my life,” Olive said without flinching.“But you know I will kill you after you kill them right?” Don said smiling with his tobacco in his hands.“Well, why don't we strike a deal, I will be you get off the country and help you start your business again in any country you want, I can help you get back everything you’ve lost and when things die down, I will bring you back to the country and by them there will be nothing left for them to do to you, I just need you to help me achieve my goals right now and I will
Max looked around, as he placed his hands on the trigger, he felt chills all over his body.“Why are you resisting?” Don asked as he placed his hands around Max’s neck.“Are you having doubts now that the gun is in your hands?” Don asked as he looked at Mr. King.“I don't have anything against you Mr. King, I just want him to accomplish something before he breathes his last breath and this is the least I can do for him,” Don said and have Mr. King a wink.Max stood looking at Mr King but he could not bring himself to point the gun at him or even fire it.“Oh Come on, Max, are you telling me there is absolutely no one here you would like to kill?” Don said.He took away the gun from him and walked toward Mark “This guy here, do you know how many lawsuits he filed against you, and how many times he help Aurora escape your grip, if it doesn't upset you enough fine, we can forgive him,” He pushed Mark away from the way and went toward Lilith.“What about your little sister, well you never
