Once Pavel had returned to his room with Sunny, she abruptly turned to him and wrapped her arms around his waist, head on his bosom; grinning profusely. Her heart beat was racy, a sign that she was greatly pleased with him. Pavel’s eyes lit up with astonishment as a euphoric sensation spread through his body, hypnotizing him. He had been longing to feel her touch for days and now his wish had been fulfilled; and the happiness it brought was priceless, just like a good dream after a nightmare making Pavel vow not to let this chance slip away from his hands. Assimilating the blissful feeling, Pavel closed his eyes; pulling Sunny closer to his body, absorbing the warmth it gave as he slid his arms around her waist; cuddling her affectionately.
“Thank you for listening to me and apologizing to Kedade. She will now have the will to live and move on.” Sunny said, still beaming. It was clear that this one thing he had done on her request had softened
Unfazed about the lingering eyes on her, Sunny excitedly pulled Pavel to the counter, nudging him to buy her the bucket of Ice-cream she wanted so badly. Pavel smiled at her and turned to the lady who was taking orders.“You heard her.” he said to the lady. “Make it, double flavor; Strawberry and Caramel.”“Yes, sir.” the lady replied with a beautiful envious smile pervading her face.“Shall we wait over there?” Sunny asked.“Sure.” Pavel replied as he took her hand and walked to a table at the far end of the shop. “People are looking at you weirdly.”“Let them look. I don’t care. They don't understand why I want a whole bucket of Ice-cream.” Sunny snorted and looked out through the glass wall of the Shop angrily.“You look more beautiful when you're upset.” Pavel said as he let out a chuckle. Sunny looked back at h
Lance stared at the picture he and Gabriella had taken after graduating from the Special Forces Training Centre. He couldn’t help but shed tears, looking at the woman he loved. He placed his hand on his heart, trying to suppress the cold stinging pain he was feeling inside. The yearning was overwhelming; his felt like his heart was tearing into tiny pieces, prompting him to lay down on his bedroom floor; weeping bitterly as he recalled the incident at the mall.“I want to see her again. I have to tell her that I love her.” Lance’s inner voice pondered as distress and anxiety crippled his mind, becoming his companion and giving him restless thoughts. Meanwhile, Sunny woke up feeling a little tired from her trip to town with Pavel. She found Saga eyeing her intently and this made her a little upset.“I am sorry but boss said that I should watch over you.” Sage explained himself.“….and where is he?” S
Wearing the beautiful dress and ornaments she had been gifted, Kedade headed down to the room Lady Fay had directed her to go and dance for a prominent foreign guest who had just arrived. Her heart was at ease, knowing that she was only going there to dance for man in his private suite. Arriving at the entrance of the suite, Kedade was ushered in by one of the door-bouncers; and when she had walked further into the suite, she met three men; Cube, Tony and Buxton who leered at her with sinister smirks after encircling her. Their behaviour gave her quite a fright since she had never seen them at the brothel before. In fact, this particular suite was quite alienated to her. except for the bar, she did not even know that such a place existed at the brothel.“I am here to dance for the guest.” Kedade said, swallowing hard.“We know.” Cube replied, pushing her forward. Kedade lost her balance and fell into Buxton’ arms. He laughed, drawing deepl
Katrina’s trial ended with a sentence of life prisonment for her frienzied attack on Police officers; laeding to the death of two Officers on duty.. She also received an additional thirty year sentence for on charges of forgery, defamation and attempted murder of John. Although it was occurence, Katrina's conviction did not come as a surprise to anyone. Her case was an open and shut; backed up by witnesses and solid evidence. Outside the courtroom, Lance thanked his lawyers and when they had left, he turned to Amanda, thanking her for her help as well.“Anytime, Daniel. You're a good guy.” Amanda said beamingly.“Good guy, huh?” Lance laughed heartily. “I feel like i have to pay for this compliment you gave me.”“I like the sound of that.” Amanda said, chuckling.“I knew you would.” Lance said as john joined them.“On that note, a payment will be made to you with th
Saga left Pavel’s room as soon as Sunny walked in with his evening meal. After feeding him, she gave him some tablets prescribed by the doctor and tried to leave but Pavel held her back.“You haven’t been yourself for the past one week. Are you feeling unwell or maybe I did something to upset you?” Pavel asked her. Sunny didn’t reply. All she could do was think about what Saga had told her seven days earlier.“I am afraid he has fallen for you and it won’t end well for both of you.” Saga’s voice echoed in her head.“Sunny, I am talking to you.” Pavel nudged Sunny’s hand, awakening her from her thoughts.“Mm, it is nothing. Don’t worry.” Sunny said; trying to leave once again but Pavel grabbed her shoulders and rolled over her, looking into her eyes; searching for sincerity. Frenzied, sunny looked back at him.“Didn’t you miss me at all?&rd
Lance walked into the Chief Agent’s office as soon as he was summoned in. Looking up, the Chief grimaced as their eyes met. It was obvious that he was still holding grudges against Lance. Lance regarded his superior with a warm greeting but he a vapid response; followed by a cold stare.“What happened this time?” the Chief asked, shifting his gaze to the computer.“I went to Saba as you instructed.” Lance replied with hope. “My suspicions were correct. Agent 505 was injured at the time she was taken with the other girls. She could be in grave danger and our mission may be compromised.”“And whose fault is that?” The chief asked, looking at Lance angrily.“It was an innocent accident. None of us foresaw it.” Lance told him.“Excuses!” The Chief shouted, banging his fist on the table. “There is no room for accidents in our line of work, Cortez? You&rsquo
The sound of thunder and flash of lightning crippled Lance with fright and anxiety as it rained heavily making him fidget uncomfortably as he lay down on his bed. He was heavily perspiring and his body temperature has risen drastically. Moaning painfully, Lance lifted his arm up, helplessly reaching out to thin air and wishing that his beloved was by his side. Suddenly, Vivian caught his lingering hand with both her hands, consoling him with gentle caresses.“Hush now. I am here for you.” She said, looking at Lance with utmost concern. After gaining consciousness, Lance could not bring himself to let Vivian go back to her house in the pouring rain. He rather accommodated her in the spare room; allowing her to borrow his clothes for the night. Strangely, Vivian had not reacted negatively to the fact that Lance had changed her clothes when she was unconscious. This was fishy to Lance as he expected her to run amok; at least even for a short while but V
Sunny woke up with a terrible headache. During breakfast, she told Pavel about it and he added some pain relievers to the course of medication that she was already supposed to take but the headache did not subside. Pavel cleaned up the room so that Sunny could rest there quietly as he had some important matters to discuss with Saga in his room. After resting for half a day, Sunny woke up and went to the balcony where she gazed at the skies hypnotically. Suddenly, her thoughts drifted to the time she and Pavel had gone shopping at the mall. Sunny could not help but think of Lance. She had seen him for the first time at the mall but she had a gut feeling that she knew him all too well.“….and he seemed to recognize me as well.” Sunny thought as she idly walked around the terrace. “Who is that me? Why do I recall hugging him so passionately? Could he be a family member?”“Who are you talking about?” Pavel asked as he app
Gabriella..." Lance whispered her name. Gabriella stood up, dashed to him and hugged him."Daniel.." Gabriella cried on his shoulders. John walked in and began scrutinizing the basement to give them space. He found Lusha hiding behind a barrel and offered her his hand for help. She readily agreed. Hugging lengthily, Gabriella and Lance cried in each other's arms for a while before John interrupted them."We should go now." He said. Gabriella smiled at him and saluted."At ease..." John said and began walking to the door. Lance looked at Gabriella and caressed her cheek. Lusha grinned happily as she walked behind them."Why didn't you salute me too? I am the senior most here.""Do you want to brag about it?" Gabriella scoffed. As they reached the door, Pavel suddenly showed up and kicked John torso, sending him to the cold floor beneath Gabriella and Lance."Nice to meet you, Daniel and goodbye!" Pavel cried out. Looking up, Lance reali
Pavel ordered that Gabriella be brought to him after being disappointed when he did not receive a response from NBCI about his demands. He was worriedly looking out the window when she was brought in and carelessly slumped into a chair in front of him. Pavel turned to looked at her and she scoffed, her eyes glistening with mixed feelings of hate and gratitude. Apart from locking her and Lusha up, nothing major had been done to me. She and Lusha had food to eat, a comfy bed to lay down on and no torture. This made her wonder why Pavel was hesitant to deal mercilessly with her when he had it in him to hurt her."Your people did not respond to my message." Pavel told her as he poured himself a drink."I am not a weakling that they should rush to rescue me.""Or maybe you are not important to them.""Keep dreaming, Pavel." Gabriella scoffed again."You are my prisoner and you want to be hardheaded?""Do your worst! I am done playing with y
Two days after Evans' Commission, the allied forces met again. Hopefully, this would be their last mission This time around, Lance had also called the board members at NBCI to be a part of this meeting as the spies that had been deployed to spy on el Paradiso's vast areas had returned and this meant that the time to go and ambush Dario Pavel and put a stop to his terror had come.Meanwhile, Lance and his allies were not the only ones preparing for an attack. Gabriella and Pavel were also secretly planning their moves against each other. From the start, Pavel had vowed that no one would take Gabriella away from him and his desire to accomplish his promise was at the core of his very own heart."Are you really going to put me with this plan?" Marcos asked him pensively. "It could backfire you know.""If it backfires, I will kill Gabriella myself." Pavel replied confidently."Boss, think about this again.""All I have done since I discov
Back at the brothel, Lusha bolted to Gabrielle and hugged her. Pavel just walked past them and headed to the lobby where his new aide, Marcos was waiting for him. The two hugged lightly before Pavel took a seat and stared into space."Well....Did you do what you wanted?" Marcos asked him."Yes....I sent my family to a safe place." Pavel replied happily. "Now there is nothing stopping me from completing my plans.""What about Gabrielle? ""As usual, my mother loved her.""Too bad. You two won't ever be together.""It was her choice. She has exercised her will and It is time for me to exercise mine." Pavel replied."What are your orders?""We have an important adversary to deal with at the moment." Pavel said as he walked to the window and stared outside with a dismal expression."Don Francis." Pavel went on. "He dared to try and have experience assassinated.""What insolence! Give me your orde
Arriving at home, Pavel told his mother and brother to pack up before making a call. A van arrived in half an hour later and Patel helped Leon pack their luggage. Gabriella and the two men's mother watched in silence. As soon as they were done, Leon and Patel spoke in low tones. It was obvious they were discussing where learn would take their mother. Soon after that, they both approached Gabriella and their mother."Mother it is time to go." Leon said."Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would have to leave this place." Their mother replied sadly before she turned to Gabriella with a frown on her face."I am sorry dear. I wish we could spend a week together as planned.""I understand..." Gabriella replied and the woman hugged her. Leon also approached her and hugged her."Perhaps this is the last time we will see each other." He told her. Gabrielle smiled-it was a bitter smile. She knew that this was indeed the last time; not only for
As soon as Leon and Gabriella were done talking, they both went inside the house and found Pavel seated in the floor with his head on his mother's laps. Gabriella was a little flustered. She was never used to seeing Pavel so vulnerable and child-like. The woman stopped talking and caressing her son's head when she saw Gabriella. Pavel stood up too."Mum...She is the woman I was talking about." Pavel told his mother. Gabriella stepped forward as Pavel's mother stood up from her seat. Gabriella was going to shake her hand but she received a hug instead."Thank you." The woman whispered into Gabriella's ear."For what?"Gabriella could not help but ask. Pavel's mother chortled merrily and cradled her face."Without you, my son would not have come home." She said happily. "How long are you staying?"Gabriella was reluctant prompting Pavel to answer on her behalf. "We will be here for a week.""Although it is quite a short period....I am hap
Seeing that the security cameras were going off one by one, the security men in the guard room sprang up and ambushed to the door. One of them opened the door and dashed out out only to be met with a bullet from Lance's gun. The man looked at Lance with a blank expressing before his eyes shifted to his lower stomach, bleeding as blood profusely oozed out of his bullet wound. The others dashed into the hallway and engaged into a gunfight with Lance. It was not long before Calvary and some of the men heard the cacophony of gunfire and rushed to the scene. Calvary was confused to see Lance killing his men one by one before he realised that he had been tricked. Feeling betrayed and angry, Calvary opened fire from his revolver. The bullet missed Lance right ear with an inch as he sidestepped the attack with left leap and went down with a somersault. Reaching the floor with his side, Lance skidded to safety. All the while relentlessly shooting at his opponents. Calvary and some of his men
Later that evening, Lance crept near the Tavern with Terry and John following him behind closely. The other team from AHUTA had lagged behind to serve as the backup team when the attack commenced. Outside the Tavern, all was calm. Not many people were passing by and they made it easy for the law enforcers to move without being spotted. They all decided to enter the Tavern in groups of two to three in order to look like regular customers. Inside, everyone was busy that they did not suspect that something was off. The dim light in the tavern also provided a good camouflage. Besides, the tavern was crowded and noisy with the loud disco. People were busy grooving and chanting to the beat of the song. The law discuss not allow many people to be crowded in one Tavern but these people did not mind. They were used to breaking the law all the time. Soon, Lance and all his teammates infiltrated the Tavern and spread out to avoid suspicion. Some took to the dance floor while others
"Yes. I would would choose to live on the farm with Gabriella." Pavel thought to himself as he walked down the hallway that led to the bar. He still could not get the question that doctor Mattel had asked him out of his head. Even in the bar, he sat down and stared at his drink while thinking about Dr. Master's question."But it is too late now. This is my life. My father and I are far too gone that there is no turning back." Pavel told himself repeatedly.A few minutes after Pavel had left, Gabriella slightly opened her eyes and closed them again since she did not want to talk to Pavel at all even though she was awake."He is gone now. You can wake up." Dr. Matteo told Gabriella after Pavel had left."How did you know that I was awake?" Gabriella asked as she opened her eyes."I did not give you a high dose of the sedative." Dr. Matteo replied after chuckling. "From now on, you have to avoid taking to Pavel. Maybe i can get him to budge by
