MR. KING’S POV“Yes, I called you all here today to let you know something important,” I said looking at Aurora then Mark and Georgia“But first I need to apologize for keeping things from you Mark, I am sorry,” I said with a smile.Mark is an easy person mostly to people he cares so much about. I moved toward him and have him a hug.“I know your worth buddy, you are very important to me not just as a member of the team or company but as a companion and good friend” I whispered loud enough for him to hear and everyone around.I looked at Aurora but she wasn't pleased and she still wasn't looking at me.We went for breakfast and she sat next to Georgia who was 3 seats away from me.Georgia looked at me to ask what was wrong but I didn't know what to say so I overlooked it and continued eating.“Are you still on bad terms, I heard lovers don't go to bed angry especially when they sleep on the same bed?” Jerry said, looking at Aurora and me.“I overheard the argument, I couldn't help it,
We went back to the living room only to find the guys on each other trying to catch their breaths.Mr. King explains to Jerry the reason behind his not taking Olive to the police station.Jerry was not pleased with his excuse because he knows how head over heels he was for Olive.“I know you didn't report her because you hoped she would have nothing to do with Sal’s kidnapping and her dying and I am sure you wanted to believe it but I gave that part already this time it’s my turn” He got up and stretched his hands toward King to raise him off the floor.“Maybe I did it because I wanted to accept that she had nothing to do with it but not anymore. If she touches me and I care about it again I won’t end it with her getting arrested but spending the rest of her life in jail.Jerry knows his friend that once he sets his mind to do something no one can change his mind or stop him from accomplishing his aim.He went to lengths to get Jerry out of jail when he had the chance though it wasn't
They got off the limousine and headed inside the building.Jerry was right, it was more than a family dinner.People from work and friends from afar were all at the dinner.Mr. King was a little nervous because he will be meeting his parents at this dinner for the first time in seven years and Sal's parents.Aurora went next to him and he held her hand, she was startled but he wouldn't let go and went straight to his family.“Who is she?”“Can't you see he is holding her hands?”“Wow, he didn't come to the dinner for seven years and when he finally he came with his fiancee that is romantic,” a lady saidOlive sat next to Sal’s mum and next to his parents. She wasn't expecting him to come with Aurora; she looked around as eyes were on her.People didn't know what happened seven years ago before their break up but they all know how perfect Mr. King was and would never cheat or deceive the one he loves.“Good evening Mother, father,” he said bowing to his parents.His parents got up and
Georgia is nowhere to be found, and the police are insisting for them to hold on a day before making it a missing person’s case.Mark has gone to heaven and earth and still could not find Georgia.After the party Olive was nowhere to be found, she was not at the penthouse or at her office. Olive returned the next morning, Jerry went over to her place to confront her but she had an alibi to prove where she was at that night after the party and where she was till that morning.All facts that point to Olive became useless and pointless.Back to square one.It has been two days since Georgia has gone missing, and no calls from anyone police are finally out.A search party was created and Mark made sure they went extra miles to find her.Mark wasn’t himself the whole time, he was neither active at work or on himself.“Why not stay over for the main time till we find Georgia” Mr. King suggested.“She might come over to the house looking for me,I have to be there,” Mark replied, looking so
Lilith is Max's younger sister who went through an assault from her Dad while growing up.She left home when she turned 18 and started to feed herself after her brother abandoned her with her father.Julius was a strict father or so he thought. He believes if he spares the rod his children or wife would go astray.He hits his wife at any slight mistake or when she does things that piss him off or when she does the things she wants without asking for his permission.Samantha Max’s mum believes till her last breath that Julius did what he did out of love and forgives him every time he hits her and begs his kids to forgive their father that he only hits them out of love.Max grew up with that mindset and got used to being hit by his father and so hits people out of love.But one thing he could not stand was watching his mum get hit.He could take himself being hit so many times but he could not bear watching his mum get hit by his father.Standing up against his dad was almost like going
Lilith's PovMark was desperate to bring out Goergia and I needed to win their trust no matter what.I was ready to do extra miles if it was going to make them change their mind about my brother and help him out.“Where exactly is she” Mr. King asked roughly as he looked at me.“In a place none of you except or imagine” I said stirring up their emotions as they all looked very eager to find out where Georgia was.“And where is that?” Mark asked as he could not wait to hear where she was and save her already.“ARGH!!!” Mark yelled out as he stared at the cheerful little phone on the table watching it with distaste.The phone kept ringing and finally sighed then picked it up.I signaled him to hold on before placing the phone on his ear.I ran through my bag as I brought out my laptop, connected it to the wifi and then Mark's phone to figure out who the caller was and where he was calling from.“We told you to ask the police officers to back off” the voice shouted from the phone as Auro
We all knew rescuing Georgia was a dangerous mission but Max has made this fight more complicated than anyone ever imagined.“This feels like one of those moments in movies where we have to go to lengths to keep the ones we love safe,” Lilith said.I looked strong outside but deep down I was broken and frustrated.I feel awful and I just want all these to come to a stop.“Sometimes it better to let someone close to your heart go for the sake of their own happiness” Maybe that's what I need to do now.Leaving them all will only make life easier for them all.I walked back to the room and hoped no one will find me.“Hey,” Mr. King said as he walked into the room where I was in my cave.I looked at him and I just could not hold back my tears.I cried my eyes out as I held on to him.He pulled me close and continued to pat my back to keep me calm.One of the things I love about Mr. King is his silence.He knows when I need to hear his voice and when I need to just listen to his heartbea
Aurora's pov“Is that smoke coming out of the building”Me King rushed out of the bus to go check what was going on outside.A black tinted Benz drove past him with the glass winded up.“It's Don,” Mark said from behind.They know we are here, the ladies are no longer safe, we need to move in now” Joe said over the radio com.Mr. King and Mark tried to enter the building to bring out their women but Jerry and some other cops held them back.“Aurora!” Georgia screamed out as she searched every loop and corner with her wounded leg.She kept roaming about despite the smoke from the fire and her leg.The police don't know where to start their search as the place was big and they could not find where Georgia and I were.The police split into four to cover more ground but the fire and the smoke were preventing them from carrying out their work.Lilith was also having a hard time hacking into their CCTV to find where Georgia and I were.When I saw the smoke approaching where I was, I became
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
