One Night With Mr. King Chapter 8: Little Rebel
"As he ran through the dark forest, he could hear nothing but his fast beating heart, the harsh wind that blew past him, and the stomping of his feet against the dry grasses. He could hear those crazy cries of theirs and boom! Out of nowhere, one of the rogue demons ate his head!" Jolene narrated and waited for Dylan's scared reaction, but the boy only stared blankly at her, eating cookies."What, that didn't scare you too? That was my best horror story, and it's scary. How could you still have a straight face?" Jolene asked with a disappointed look."Because it's not scary. That's just a story," Dylan replied, and Jolene scoffed, crossing her arms."What scares you then?" Jolene asked, raising a brow. Dylan raised one of the cookies to her. "Cookies?""What I'm scared of is cookies disappearing completely. That will be the end of the world," Dylan replied, taking a bite."You're impossible," Jolene shook her head. "You do not talk like a five-year-old kid.""People say that all the t

Tatiana sat frozen in the car, her face turning red as a tomato, and her lips sealed shut. The image of Cassius carrying her replayed in her mind, causing her heart to race uncontrollably.Regaining her senses, she shot a glare at the man driving. "What was that? Why did you carry me?" she snapped."I needed to talk to you privately. Resist again, and I'll do more than that. I hate disobedience," he replied, his voice cold. But Tatiana couldn't care less."Why should I obey you?" she questioned."You don't need a reason. No one does," he responded, his gaze still fixed on the road.Tatiana scoffed. "You're used to people obeying you, aren't you? Well, sorry to burst your bubble, but I'm not that kind. I do what I want.""Not with me," he turned his head towards her, his emotionless blue eyes piercing through her. "I told you I would show you the consequences of crossing paths with me, little rebel," he added before returning his attention to the road."What's with the nickname?" Tatia

It was Monday, and Tatiana gushed over her son's school outfit. She said sweet words to him, assuring him that he would love the school.After dropping her son off at school, Tatiana kissed his cheek and bid him goodbye. She entered her car and zoomed off after making sure he was safely inside.Unknown to her, Paisley spotted her from a distance. She was in her car with her son, Landon.Tatiana had just dropped a kid around the age of her son at the school her son also attended. With a rough guess, the boy was around the age of five. Nathan had betrayed her six years ago.Could it be that the boy was Nathan's son? Impossible!Getting home, Tatiana took out her laptop and continued her research. Catelyn had told her something strange about Maya.Though she tried to ignore the strange feeling, she couldn't help her curiosity. She scrolled down Mason's page and saw how lovely their couple pictures were.Just last week, Mason claimed to have gifted his wife an expensive car. Nothing seeme

Paisley tried to get out of her hold, but Tatiana was stronger than she imagined. She felt a taste. Salty. Urine! She struggled more, only to have Tatiana push her head further.Tatiana pulled out her head, her grip on Paisley's hair still hard and firm, like she was going to pull it out of her scalp."Let me give you a warning, bitch. The next time you cross paths with me, mind the way you use your words. Talk shit about my boy again, and I swear you'll experience a fate crueler than death," Tatiana warned, her tone icy. She dipped Paisley's head briefly into the toilet again before releasing her.Stepping out, Tatiana composed herself and returned to her calm and charming aura. As she walked through the hall, she felt the curious gazes of the onlookers and cared less about it.Paisley splashed the running water on her face, scrubbing it intensively. She could still taste, smell, and feel the urine. How dare Tatiana?! Does she think this was years ago? Does she even know what she had

"That, I can't tell," Nathan mumbled, and Paisley's eyes widened."But you told me you haven't touched her since two years before the wedding!" Paisley yelled."Why are you so riled up?" Nathan raised a brow."You lied?! Is that child yours?! It can't be! Tatiana can't have your child; she can't!" Paisley yelled."Go freshen up; I'm hungry." Nathan stood and made to leave, but Paisley quickly held him."It's not your child, Nathan. Please tell me the child is not yours," Paisley pleaded, and Nathan shot a glare at her."Can you stop overreacting? We are done with this conversation," he said coldly, shrugging her hand off.Paisley shook her head. "It can't be. Nathan doesn't have another child outside. I'm the only one who bore her child. I'm the only one." She quickly took her phone to make some calls.Nathan stepped into his study room, his gaze swirling with an unknown emotion. He pulled out his phone and called his assistant."Hello, boss," his assistant answered immediately."Find

The room fell silent. Cassius didn't flinch or act as if they had exited. Instead, he waited for them to leave, but they didn’t. Why did they have to ruin the moment?Tatiana finally came to her senses and pushed him away from herself. He let her, taking a step backward.An awkward smile appeared on Tatiana's face as her eyes darted from the three figures."I... it's not what you think... umm, we were not doing anything," Tatiana stuttered badly.This was the first time Catelyn had seen Tatiana lost for words. Tatiana had always been a straightforward, courageous woman. So who was the man beside him? Her eyes narrowed, seeing the striking resemblance to Dylan in the man."Mr. King," Jolene struggled to breathe. Catelyn got her answer. Dylan's father?Cassius simply tucked both of his hands into his pockets, waiting for any of them to break the silence. The atmosphere was tense, but he cared less."Auntie, you wanted to prepare coffee. I think Mr. King would like to have some," Tatiana

The next day, Tatiana decided to visit King’s company. Catelyn was right; the earlier, the better."Paisley is not only a bitch to herself and everyone, but she is also a bitch to her own son. How could she get into her little boy's head just because of her selfish self..." Jolene wouldn't stop talking after hearing Dylan's words from Tatiana. "Maybe we should change his school. If Paisley knows about Dylan, then the bastard Nathan knows about him too."Tatiana sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose. "I knew I shouldn't have come to this country, but I don't have a choice. That's why I need to tell him soon.""He'll probably be a little mad, but I think he'll be cool. Mr. King is cold but not to you, I guess.""He said I'll face the consequences. Of what exactly? I didn’t steal anything from him.""You stole his heart," Jolene teased."I'll cut your tongue," Tatiana warned, and Jolene chuckled. Tatiana's phone buzzed, and she quickly pulled it out, thinking it was Cassius, but it was

Tatiana was led into the large hall filled with exquisite people clad in their unique attire. Their chatter filled the air, making the atmosphere lively."Idol," Hudson rushed to her, worries filling his gaze. "Are you alright?" he asked calmly. His black, alluring suit matched the cheerful aura around him."Yeah, I'm fine, thanks to Mr. King," Tatiana responded, her heart still racing a bit from the harsh encounter outside. What if he hadn't saved her? That would have been a mess."I'm glad to hear that. I'm so sorry about it. I'll find out who did that," Hudson assured, and she nodded."Thanks, Mr. Hudson.""Hudson, just call me Hudson. I'll take you to Cassius," he said and led her away from the crowd.Indigo, who was busy discussing with some of her friends, saw this and furrowed her brow. Tatiana was here again, and Hudson was leading her to Cassius. What was her deal?Hudson led Tatiana up to a large, not-so-dark room. There, Cassius stood with one of his hands tucked in his poc

[Four years later]Issabella spun around to look at the women in the room. "How do I look?" Nervousness was evident in her voice. She was wearing a professional outfit, her hair tied into a bun, with light makeup accentuating her beauty."Fantastic!" Tatiana responded. "You're really made for this.""President Issabella, right on track!" Jolene exclaimed, a ring glittering on her finger. She had married Jaxon last year. In her arms was little Elsa, dressed in a blue fluffy dress."Gosh, I feel nervous," Issabella exhaled, fanning herself several times."You're fine," Tatiana approached and adjusted her shirt.Jolene added, "Just be yourself.""Are you okay with this? I mean, you've been handling it for a year now..." Issabella asked Tatiana."With you by my side. You're way more capable than you think. Besides, handling it with my career is stressful," Tatiana said."Especially when Tatie won the Best Actress Award three times in a row," Jolene added."Drama queen," Tatiana mumbled."

Cassius's face paled, mirroring the expressions of the others. Jaxon choked on his drink before bursting into laughter. The others joined in, and the room erupted with laughter.After they finished eating, they all headed to the park. Cassius decided to buy the entire place for his son and wife.Jaxon stood at a distance, watching Tatiana, Cassius, and Dylan riding the carousel. Aurora stood beside him, also watching."A wonderful sight, isn't it?" she sighed. "For a fleeting moment, I thought I'd never see this. Silly me."Jaxon put his arm around her shoulder. "You'll get to see this every day." He then recalled what Cassius had said about Silence and Aurora not wanting to meet each other.He knew it was for the best, but his heart ached knowing Aurora never experienced true love... or maybe she did.She cared for her family more than anything. The smile on her face and the happiness glittering in her eyes were priceless."Aren't you going to ride with them?" Jaxon asked Jolene, who

Meanwhile, Rafael glanced at the man seated beside him with his eyes closed. He was now so used to his cold aura. "You're not going to see her? I mean, Mr. King's mother?" he asked. "I'm not going to meet her." "Why not?" Rafael asked, curious. "Can you keep your mouth shut? I'm trying to meditate here." "Says the man who used me. I'm still mad at you, you know... But weirdly, I'm glad you found me," Rafael mumbled. "So what are you going to do with me?" "Your choice. Either you stay and get the hell out of my way, or you come with me and become like me," Silence said curtly, standing to leave. He had gone far when Rafael ran to walk beside him. "You called me your apprentice. I'm going to stay that way. My place is with you," Rafael responded, and the man shot him a glare. "You wanna die? 'Cause I'm damn sure you won't last a week." Rafael laughed confidently. "Try me." Silence's lips curled up. "Fine then," he muttered, continuing to walk with Rafael beside him. "What are

Cassius gazed down at Silence, his father, his emotions in turmoil as he recalled how he had stormed into Silence's room, eyes blazing."You're helping me," he said, and Silence turned to give him a questioning look. "Helping? And what makes you think that?""Rafael told me everything. How you made him turn against his family, causing their death. You hate the Wallingtons," Cassius said, and Silence simply returned his gaze to the sky he was looking at."If you want me to hate, then just say so instead of acting like a fucking asshole."Silence shut his eyes and sighed. "You're one stubborn son of a bitch. I'll be done and gone soon. So if you're going to throw a tantrum, do it later.""Why didn't you ever show up?" Cassius persisted. He wanted to get the answer out of this man at all costs. At least he knew something-Silence wasn't an enemy."I clearly recall telling you not to bother knowing who I am.""Well, sorry, Dad... I'm going to trouble you until you spill the shit," Cassius

Horror flashed across their faces as they exchanged glances."Is this a joke?" The middle-aged man on the right slammed his hand on the desk."Do I look like a comedian?" Tatiana asked in a calm tone, her aura composed. She looked up at the guard standing behind her."Do I?" she asked him."No, ma'am," he responded."I didn't think so, so no, it's not a joke... Oh," she gasped slightly. "Maybe because I didn't explain it well." Her face suddenly turned cold, and the shareholders wondered if she was the same calm woman they had seen seconds ago.She leaned down, resting her elbows on the desk, her chin on her knuckles. "This company has been in the hands of trash-people who use innocent lives for their selfish interests. I'm here to take out that trash, starting with you."Another man stood up and roared. "You wench! Do you even realize what you're saying?! This company would collapse without us. We are the backbone of this place!""Oh really? Let's test that, shall we? I'll prove to y

"Uncle Conrad," Dylan called as he accompanied Butler Conrad in the kitchen."Yes, Dylan," Conrad answered, his voice calm."Don't you think it's wrong not to tell my parents about good Grandpa? My mother will be so mad at me once she finds out," the boy said, his tiny legs swinging as he sat on the stool."They'll find out about him soon. You don't want to spoil the surprise, do you?" Butler Conrad asked, and Dylan sighed."I don't know. Strange things are happening lately. Mom, Dad, Grandma, and everyone are so busy. I haven't seen Aunt Jojo since she left that night. A bad grandpa plans to hurt my parents, and my birthday is coming up. School's started, and I haven't gone yet." Dylan paused to catch his breath."I just hope they're okay and everything gets back to normal.""Stop worrying, kiddo," Butler Conrad said softly, glancing over his shoulder. "You'll see them soon enough.""Alright, if you say so," Dylan nodded.___'If that motherfucker turns out to be an enemy, we'll all

Hudson advanced towards Tristan. "I've been waiting for this my whole life," he said, shoving the poison into Tristan's neck. Tristan gasped as the guards released him to the floor. Tatiana watched as Tristan struggled for his life, screaming in terror, wishing the pain would end soon. She recalled how the agony had driven her to madness... but the poison used on Tristan was even more painful than what had been inflicted on her. "Make it stop!!! Arghhh!!!" Tristan's screams echoed through the room, the veins in his face and neck bulging, his eyes changing color as blood spilled from his mouth. His hand reached out, trying to grasp Tatiana's dress, begging for the antidote. "Please... Argh!!!" For the pain he had caused her loved ones, especially Issabella, who had once seen him as a father figure. For the trauma he had inflicted on so many. Tristan deserved every ounce of the pain ravaging him at this moment. He deserved ten times more. Several minutes passed, and Tristan's movem

Cassius gritted his teeth. "I'm going to destroy Maximus and his empire... And if you get in my way, I'll destroy you... Until my last breath."As the men spoke, Rafael remained silent. Mr. King was also terrifying, his aura menacing. No wonder he's Silence's son.If you look closely, they share a striking resemblance.Silence sighed. "Chatting with my grandson was way more fun than chatting with you."Grandson? Wait! Dylan?!"When did you speak to my son?" Cassius asked, a deadly warning lacing his voice."Let's just put it this way..." Silence paused and chuckled. "Your butler, Conrad. He works for me."Cassius's eyes widened.-[SPAIN]"¿Estás seguro? (Are you sure?) You've heard what the man has done and seen the traces, and yet you're going to face him? Val, my world, I... I can't lose you," Maria panicked over the phone as she paced around the room, fidgeting with her dress."My Donna, I told you not to worry.

"I killed Leonard... I really killed my brother without a second thought... I pulled the trigger... He wasn't going to kill me, but I did it anyway... Or maybe he was going to kill me... I'm a murderer... I'm a fucking murderer who killed his own brother in cold blood... I killed someone---"Rafael panicked, running his hands through his hair, pulling at it. He was losing his mind over Leonard's death-because of him. The scene of pulling the trigger, Leonard falling with blood spilling from his chest, Leonard whispering that he didn't want to die, and taking his last breath-played on repeat in his head."I killed him... I'm a fucking murderer," he whispered again, fidgeting in his seat and pulling his hair harder. "I fucking killed him! I killed him!" he yelled, standing up and punching the wall."I killed him!" he screamed again, punching the wall over and over until his fists started to bleed, staining the floor.The door opened, and he abruptly stopped."What the heck are you doing
