ALFRED. “Make sure you look after her. Don't you ever remove her eyes away from her and her kids? Am I clear?” Pulling the three guards from their ears I warned them vehemently.“But, we can't keep in touch with her when she is still with the doctor.” One of the guards spoke up with a shaky voice countering my instruction.“How dare you question my authority?” I spanked his tiny head growling out in frustration, “Most of the time I tend to ponder and ask myself how I was able to employ someone like you?”The guard groaned out in pain rubbing his hands on his head, “I didn't mean to counter your authority, Alpha Alfred. I was trying to state the obvious because it was going to be a little difficult to keep an eye on her and her kids.” He backed up his words defending my suggestion. I was getting sick and slowly frustrated having to discuss certain things with this blockhead because it was pointless proving my point to him. “Can you do the job or not?” Angrily grabbing him from his n
ALFRED.She went silent and didn’t feel any remorse for her actions while feeding me with her silence. Her breath only brought more heat to my face as she didn’t bother to say anything to me. The only thing my ears could hear was the heavy sound of her breath.“Have you suddenly gone deaf, Anna?” twisting her over with her hair so she could face me and look into my eyeballs directly, “I asked who the hell did you call while I was away.”Throwing her face down to my feet she gave me a cold response, “I didn't call anybody, Alfred.” I laughed out loud sarcastically licking the dried corners of my lips seductively, “Who the hell do you take me for? A child?” my eyebrows were fully raised as I questioned her curious to hear her response.“I never for once called you a child, Alfred.” she backed up her words still putting on a courageous face.“You must be foolish to think that I'm a fool to you and that you can easily brainwash me with your fake lies. What has gotten into you?”“Nothing
Alfred.I wasn't feeling comfortable because the security guard was standing closer to us just to be sure my words weren’t filled with lies but the truth. The way he was looking at us made me feel a little bit restless and eager to act out of proportion but I still made my cool.On the other hand, it felt as if Anna was a little bit excited that the security guard who was standing right beside us came at the right time by saving her silly ass from getting hurt. “What do you think we can do about this situation?” I whispered into her ears so the security guard wouldn’t be able to decode what I had just told her.I wasn't ready to jeopardise all my effort for this skinny-ass security guard. I don’t mind bringing down my ego to Anna just to ensure that I get out of the situation.“Are you asking me that question, Alfred?” she raised her eyebrows, surprised that I'd be needing her help at this point. If it wasn't because I had lied that I and Anna were married couples I wouldn't be need
ALFRED:Even though I gripped her tightly on her neck pinning her to the wall she still didn't open her mouth to mention the person she called. She looked at me coldly with her eyeballs but couldn't say a word at all. "For, how long do you think you can flex your muscles on me, Alfred?"“Anna, I don't want to be hard on you as you can see I've been holding myself back from doing something that I might end up regretting so just act all cool and tell me who the hell you called.” She giggled at my command and spat out her words on my face in disgust, “I won't change my words for you, Alfred. I'd rather have my blood spilled by you than mention the name of the person I called earlier.” She struggled a little bit with her speech because of my tightened grip on her neck. I felt so frustrated by the constant response I was receiving from her that I didn't realize when I lifted my hands to give her a resounding slap but she was so fast to wave her face off it. I pushed her off to the groun
Anna. Shutting the door of Alfred's study room was like shutting out the noise and garbage that came out of his mouth. I was getting sick and tired of seeing Alfred rotate me in circles as if my opinions and suggestions weren't valid. There was nothing I hadn't done to please Alfred even to the detriment of my mental health yet he still didn't want me to live the life I wanted to live. I was slowly losing my happiness just because I was being forced against my will to live in a place I detest with everything in me. “Why can't you just leave me alone, Alfred? Why can't you allow me to go?” slamming my fist angrily on the wall I broke down in tears of frustration and bitterness. I haven't even had the best of my life yet. When it felt as if I was getting to the pyramid of it all Alfred decided to ruin it for me by hoarding me and my kids in this damn place. “Goodness! I hate it here.” I screamed out silently not wanting to gather the attention of the maids and guards who were in t
Anna. “Get your stinky self out of my body.” Pushing myself away from his closeness I gave him a resounding slap. “Never you try this nonsense that you just did again, Alfred.” I warned him intensively using my hands to clean my lips. “Why are you so pissed over nothing, Anna?”“Pissed? Over nothing?” I busted out loud in a deep laugh shaking my head in dismay, “Alfred, you pushed me over to you against my own will and there you are asking me a dumb question of why I’m being pissed at you.”“It's not a dumb question, Anna.” He began walking closer to me, “You just have to admit to yourself that you love what I gave you.”I rolled my eyes taking three steps away from him even though he was still coming closer to me, “Alfred, can you please stop this drama?” yelling at the top of my voice I pushed him backwards on his chest from coming closer to me. “Did you just push me, Anna?” His eyes traced through his chest where I had pushed him. “Yes, Alfred! And, if you don't get to respect
AnnaMira gave me deaf ears ignoring the question I asked her earlier while she carried on having fun with my kids. “Am I not asking you a question, Mira?” I challenged her my hands vibrating in anger with the way I saw her playing with my kids and having a close relationship with them. She dropped Sandy who she had on her lap and tossed her face to me, “Don't you have regard for your kids anymore, Anna? Why are you creating a toxic space for them?”Out of annoyance, I walked over to her, pulling her up from where she sat with her hair, “How dare you speak to me about my kids in such a manner, Mira?”“Mummy, do you want to hurt her?” Andy asked with a puzzled face as if he was trying to figure out all that was happening. “No, son. I don't want to hurt her at all, I'm only trying to protect you all from her. Do you understand me?”“Yes, mum!” They all chorused their answer in unison, nodding their heads simultaneously to conform to their response. “Thank you, my baby.” I bent over
Mira“Will you get your silly ass out of there?” Shouting at the top of my voice I challenged them. “We are sorry ma'am.” They bowed down their head simultaneously dragging their feet out of my presence, taking sides to murmur at each other. “Come back here, fools.” I picked myself up from the floor, dusting my hands to clean my body while they stood frozen in their steps afraid to turn back.“Are you both deaf? Do you want to lose your job or what?”Hearing my threats and being aware that I don't joke with my words they ran over to my side bowing their head on the floor, “Here we are ma'am.”“You both are very foolish.” I landed a heavy slap on their cheeks as they knelt before me, “What were you saying about me before I called you back?”“We didn't say anything about you, ma'am.” The younger maid responded to her absorbing the tears in her eyes. “Really? You didn't say anything to me?” I raised my eyebrows igniting fear in their eyes. “I swear with my name that we didn't say any
Mike.I staggered on my feet, dusting off the sand that had penetrated deeply into my eyes. The loud cry of the kids echoed through the calmness of the forest and every one of their words pierced through my heart. From the way they kept on shouting and struggling to get off the right grip of Zed, I knew that they were scared of him and they’d only been treated awfully.“Daddy Mike! Please, come and save us.” Sandy cried out loud in exhaustion.She was scared of her life and seeing my presence she greatly believed that I'd be of help to her. If there was anything that was going through my mind at that point it was the fact that I needed to be calculative of my steps so I wouldn’t end up losing them to Zed.“Zed, kindly hand over the kids to me and I won’t bother coming for you.” I pleaded with him dragging my feet cautiously on the floor just to get closer to him without him being aware. “They are all mine, Mike. I won't hand them over to you so there is no point trying to beg me.” He
MIKE. The loud sound of steps echoed loudly from within with my eyes scanning through the thick forest to be alert for where they’d be coming from. “What the hell is happening?” I said to myself trying to brace up for the aftermath. “One.. Two…” Zed raised his hands into the air, raising his voice so loud that one would be able to hear it echo through the silence of the room. Angrily I grabbed his collar, hitting his back on a tree I pestered him, rolling up my sleeves to question him, “What do you think you are doing?” “You haven't seen anything, Mike. Do well to sit back and enjoy the ride.” He kicked my underlegs and dashed through the edge of the forest that led to another path. The moment he caught a glimpse of me on the floor fighting my way through to stand on my feet, he put his fingers into his mouth and whizzled out, “Three! You all come out!” He screamed out loud before dashing out of the scene.Suddenly, I heard the steps approaching closer to me and this time around
MIKE.He looked at me and in his eyes, I was able to see his fears and the shock that I was able to overpower him with the strength in me. I pressed further my hands holding down his neck so tight waiting for him to give me a response before I unleashed my power on him. “Do you want me to disfigure your face before you answer me?” I said to him, moving my body closer to him so he'll be able to feel the tension in my voice.“Anna is in safe hands, Mike. You don’t have to be harsh on me because you need my help for you to be able to see her,” he responded with so much confidence in his voice.I knew he was right about his words because there is no way i'd see her without his help. Through his eyes, I was able to feel the coldness of his breath on my skin oozing out for every word that kept finding its way out of his mouth, “Take me there and before you take me to where she is I want you to tell me who the hell are you and how were you able to track my number.” I pushed further with my
ANNA.“Father, you can’t leave me like this. I need you right now and you know that we still have a long way to go so please wake up and tell me that you are still here with me.” Alfred held unto the tightness of his father, his mouth closer to Logan’s mouth as he brushed his breath against his father’s face trying his best to revive him up from his conciousness.His tears and anger in his voice touched my heart. Even though, I was still mad at him and had no love interest for him I still couldn’t stand the fact that he was in pain and I’d only be a wicked person to ignore his feelings and pain. Alfred was hurting and I wasn’t blind to not see it. In his eyes I saw the only true and authentic love he has for his father.Picking myself from the floor with my kids as we were all slightly injured, I dusted the soft dusty particles that hung on my skin and that of my kids while I Sandy and Mandy assisted in picking the bags from the floor, “Mum, we have to leave this place right away!” Sa
ALFRED:“Father!” I called out his name in shock, feeling surprised to see him standing right at the edge of the door. “What exactly are you doing here?” I asked him eager to hear his response because the last time I checked up on him he was still at his recovery stage. “I'm trying to do what you can't do, son.” He coughed out his words weakly, as he placed his hands on the door knob using it to find support. I felt cold shivers around my spine as he responded to me, “Father? Are you sure you don't want me to handle these things myself?”“Anna, please take your things and that of your siblings inside your room?” he stammered with his steps ignoring the question I asked earlier while he held down the door knob as a support. Anna grabbed her kids around her legs and looked at Alpha Logan with a demeaning look, “You want me to stay here after I've promised Mira that I'd keep to my words? Do you want her to come for me and my family?” Tears welled up in her eyes as she broke down in d
MIKE. “Not too fast Mike.” He took two steps behind, holding his gun down to his sides. Inside of me was boiling in ardent anger and rage. It felt as if I wanted to tear down every living cell in my body just to get the face of the person talking behind the mask, “Do you have the information I need based on the thing you sent to me?” I asked losing the patience in me. “Why are you so in a haste to force some words out of my mouth, Mike? Aren't you meant to be patient because I have what you need?” He asked, his voice clumsy and a bit serious. I groaned out loud, feeling a little bit under the weather as I wasn't comfortable with the question he was asking me and the way he was behaving towards me. I felt like something was off about him but I wasn't sure if my instincts were right or wrong. “What do you want from me? Did you call me here to prank me or what?” My eyes stared back at him coldly, challenging him back with every fiber of strength in me. “It seems like you don't want
MIKE. A cold shiver ran through my spine as I heard the command from behind. The voice was very deep and audacious and from the way the words sounded and came out of his mouth I knew from that moment that he wasn't joking at all. “Mike, are you okay?” The detective's voice echoed in the building from the phone. My hands were vibrating as I grew in cold feet. I was desperate to fill him up with some details but at the same time, I didn't want to be the reason why Anna would lose her precious life. “Mike! Tell me where you are and have me come pick you up immediately!” He commanded from the umpteenth time jeering me up to do the needful. The way he was sounding over the phone I could hear the thick sound of desperation coming through the phone. He was over ready to ensure that I was in safe hands and protected at all costs no matter how bad the situation was. I gulped down the thick saliva hoarding in my throat and didn't give him any response or make any sound to his hearings. “
MIKE. The building was looking so tattered and for the fact that it was an uncompleted building, my heart skipped for a minute. I was scared for the fact that I might be endangering my life for what was not worth it. I didn't inform my security personnel and shared with them my location so they could at least have a clue of what was happening currently in my life. “I hope this sacrifice I'm about to take just to be sure that I can get some information about Anna and where she'd have been won't end up costing my life,” I whispered under my breath, not certain about what the outcome might be. “Fuck it! I'll do this with my blood, sweat, and tears and it will work out fine.” I blurted out my words with a positive mindset as if I reached for the stairs. Walking to the floor where I was asked to meet him was a little bit deadly for one to pass through for the stairs wasn't balanced and for every step I took the rakes kept on shaking. My heart wasn't rest assured at all with the drastic
Anna.At this point, I was ready to do anything that she wanted me to do. My clothes were drenched in unending tears from seeing my kids being threatened by Mira and the fact that I’ve never seen them cry so badly also affected my mental health. The last promise I made to them before I went missing was that I’d protect them at all costs because never will I sit and watch my kids being treated like a slave when I’ve given them the life I once dreamt of. I don’t care what it’ll cost me or how it’s going to affect me but I was over ready to get things done and protect my kids before anything happens to them. Since, when they were brought in here they’ve been rushed from one hospital to another and that wasn't the life I envisioned for them. I braced myself up and asked her one more time, my feet stomping on the ground in agitation, “Can you please get to the point and stop wasting my time?”She heaved out a deep sigh, licking the dried corners of her lips, “I can see that you got some
