Rayne's Revenge 83. A blessing
Rayne's POVEverything was set in place for our plan. The men that Nathan had sent for arrived the day before to Australia and he had gone to help them settle down at one of the houses he had acquired during our stay so far in the country.I had agreed with him staying with them for a few days so he can acquaint them with our plans and what was going on because we thought that frequent visits from the men at the house would scare Leo and that was the last thing we wanted. We wanted him at most to think that everything was fine and we were all alright not preparing for a game that might cost us a lot."They're all set for tomorrow from my assessment and it looks like everyone on the team understands the assignment so our chances of victory is very high" Nathan said while he unknotted his tie. He had just come back from his final meeting with the men before the main action the next day. I nodded, glad that at least everything was alright at that end. I barely had a part to play in the p

Rayne's POVWe woke up early and I went to get Leo ready for school. He needed to get to school early so the men could see him entering and believe that he was in the school premises.I knocked on his door and opened it slowly, peeping into the room only for me to see that he was already awake and sitting up on his bed. He looked at my direction when he heard the door open and I smiled at him,"Hey baby. You're awake already" I said, entering into the room fully and closing the door behind me."Good morning Mummy" he greeted and I kissed his cheek to acknowledge the greeting then sat beside him in the bed"Sleep well?" I put my hand over his shoulders and hugged him briefly"It was alright" he replied and I nodded using the time to think of how best I was going to explain to him what was about to happen today at his school"There's something I want to tell you" I began and he looked at me with his big green eyes, curiosity on his face"What is that Mummy?" He was already thinking abou

Rayne's POV I left Leo's room, glad that the conversation had gone smoothly. Now we all just had to play our part perfectly. I was saddened by the fact that Leo was involved in this fiasco between Elliott, Zia and me. He didn't have to be in it but this was the only way considering that they weren't hiding the fact that they've been watching him. U hoped I made them pay.While I prepared to take Leo to school, my mind played different scenarios of what could go wrong like a television screen but I compelled my brain to believe that our plan was sound proof and that nothing could go wrong. It was my responsibility to protect my family and if I started believing the doubts hovering around my head, I was going to loose it. I finished preparing and walked to Leo's room to help him finish up. I knocked and opened the door and saw that he was already ready to leave."Hey love, looks like you're ready "I said while walking up to him. I adjusted his shirt collar and helped him arrange his h

Nathan's POVIt was showtime. The first part of the plan which was dropping Leo off at school and letting them see him clearly had already been completed now it was time for the dangerous part.The plan all in all was to capture a handful of not all of the men that were there and teaching them a big lesson for even thinking of hitting my son they way that they did. They should have known that no one messes with Nathan Sterling and goes scot-free.I switched off the engine of my car and got down, making my way immediately into the house that I had purchased for the bodyguards that Max had sent to me from New York. They were from the finest security and protection company over there."Are we ready?!" I yelled immediately I turned the door knob and entered the living room"Yes!" A uniform chorus came back to me as a response and I smiled. They had the type of spirit I had, fearless and always ready for a challenge.I nodded, my eyes scanning the room, taking in the sight of the highly t

Rayne’s POVImmediately we got to the back door, the school bell rang and I felt the fear jump into my heart. Now the school would go into its usual chaos after school with students running around but when I looked out of the compound, I realize that it was a good thing because we could easily get lost in the crowd and Zia’s men won’t really notice.“Come on. Let’s go” I said to Leo after putting his hoodie above his head to block them from recognizing him. We made our way out of the building and easily blended into the crowd and I only took a normal breath when we got into the car and drove off.“That was harder than I had initially imagined” I whispered to myself but my relief didn’t last long when I suddenly realized that we were being followed by one of the black cars. They were onto us.“Shit!” I exclaimed, trying to see them clearly from my review mirror.“What is it mummy?” Leo asked me and I sighed and yelled for him to but on his seatbelt because we were about to have a crazy
Last Updated : 2024-06-18Rayne's Revenge 88. War declaration
Nathan's POVI was boiling in anger and fear as I drove. Some men following behind me as we drove along the highway.Rayne's call was supposed to have been a happy one with her telling that she was back with Leo safely at home and me telling her that we had successfully captured all of Zia's men back at the school but hearing Leo's voice ask me to come save them shattered my heart and happiness. What was happening? Had there been more men that we knew nothing about? How had they found out that the person they were following was Rayne even when she was in her costume? It didn't make any sense. Unless someone had been following her from the onset of the plan."Oh God please keep them safe for me" I whispered a prayer up to the skies and crossed my fingers, hoping for good news and focused on looking around the highway for Rayne's car and it didn't take longer than that for me to sight her car at the far right off the road. I didn't need someone to tell me that they had been ambushed. A
Last Updated : 2024-06-18Rayne's Revenge 89. Recovery
Rayne's POVMy eyes felt heavy as I tried to open them. What happened and where was I? The bed I was lying in was not so comfortable and it was adding to my anxiousness.I tried racking my brain to remember the last thing I could and when Zia's face flashed before my eyes, everything came rushing back to me. She has taken my son with her. I felt like screaming and trashing the whole place for my son but I was still too weak for that so the pain just ate at me as I tried to steady my breathing.Tears welled up in my eyes, blurring my vision. How could she? A sob escaped my lips, turning into a shaky cough that wracked my whole body. My throat felt like sandpaper and my head throbbed with a dull ache. Every part of me screamed at me to get up, to find Leo, but I was stuck. My limbs felt heavy, useless. A choked whimper escaped my lips. "Leo," I rasped, my voice barely a whisper. I took a deep breath and forced myself to focus. Panicking wouldn't help. I needed to get out of this bed
Last Updated : 2024-06-19Rayne's Revenge 90. Demands
Rayne's POV It was now a week plus and I still couldn't think straight. My thoughts were everywhere. Zia still had my son, and I would do anything to get him back. But she was playing games with me, and I was scared. I was so scared and had a lot of images playing in my mind. What If she actually harmed him? No. She wouldn't do that right? No matter the case, I was who she wanted, she wouldn't harm a little boy to harm me right? But I knew she would. It was as if she was next to me laughing her heart out. I knew that if I didn't comply with whatever demands and had, she would harm him. I looked at my phone desperately, praying desperately to get a call from her so she could make her demands and I could grant them and Leo will be released. But her being Zia probably already knew I was waiting for her call and was taking her time so she could torture me. I paced around the room with my phone in hand, desperately praying. When my phone rang out, I started in shock despite already expe

Rayne's Revenge 165. Bring Her Down
Nathan's POVMy heart raced wildly as I ran up the stairs with Jack and Alex behind me. We reached the rooftop, and my heart sank as my worst fears were confirmed. A lady lay unconscious on the floor and I walked slowly to the body scared it was Rayne but it was Pamela. I felt bad but hoped she was still alive. I looked up to see a masked figure dressed in a black suit pointing a gun at someone. My heart skipped a beat when I saw Rayne shivering with fear at the gun pointed at her. “Hey, let her go!” I shouted, finally getting the attention of the masked person. The figure looked at me and back at Rayne and slowly removed its mask revealing a long hair flying with the wind. It was Zia. She had a wicked grin and spoke with a sinister tone. “Oh, my darling. You're just in time to witness the end of…this bitch.”I walked cautiously to her so as not to make her shoot. “How did you get in here?” I asked.Zia chuckled and answered calmly. “You're not the only one with spies, Nathan. I've
Rayne's Revenge 164. Second Strike

It was now a habit to spend the weekend with my biological family. Many times Dad had asked me to come stay with them but I couldn't abandon my adoptive parents and he understood.I planned on taking Rayne on a sibling date. I was going to live up to my big brother's expectations since we both missed growing up in each other's lives. Her kids were my kids and I couldn't have enough of them. I had a little chat with our father while Rayne dressed upstairs in her room. When she came down dressed in a lovely casual top and jeans with a baseball cap, I cheered because we had unknowingly worn the same thing.Janet crawled up to me, and she lifted her body making an attempt to stand but her feet wobbled and she fell but I caught her in time. She giggled and raised her hands up for me to carry her. Nathan came by and after
Rayne's Revenge 163. Out of Bondage
Zia’s POVI didn't say much and let Lucinda do her stuff. She presented the paperwork from the court to the head officer and I was free to go. Nothing felt better than leaving the mental hospital. It was a breath of fresh air. I had all sorts of emotions come to me. It was a mix of relief, anxiety, and uncertainty. Lucinda let me into her car and flashed me a sly smile. “Get in,” she said with an up tone. “We can catch on what we have missed on the way. I want to know everything.” I scoffed and entered the vehicle. “You wish, old witch as if I would ever tell her anything. Like I would ever tell you anything. You deserve nothing but total hatred from me,” I thought, faking a smile at her. She drove as I sat in the car and the image of the mental hospital gates getting distant made me want to fly to the moon. I didn't trust her so I let the questions fly around to be sure. “How did you know I was locked up in an asylum?” I asked, my eyes fixed on her body movements to detect if sh
Rayne's Revenge 162. Deal With The Devil
Zia’s POVMy body grew numb as I lay in the cold room. My mind became foggy as I Lost my sense of time. I hoped Sarah was able to make it far away. She could always find a way to help me but how she would go about it bothered me. My teeth chattered uncontrollably and I couldn't feel my fingers or toes. White smokey gas came out of my nose and mouth anytime I breathed out in my vain effort to warm myself. I clutched down to the side of the room, with my hands folded across my knee.I was about to give up and pray for death so I could end it all, but the door creaked open and a worker stepped in. I raised my head and he looked at me with disgust. There was no hint of flinch of pity in his eyes. “Well, well, well. Look at what we have here,” he said, mocking my situation. “If it isn't the little troublemaker? How do you feel? Do you want to escape or perhaps you want to create another show?”I shivered and tried to maintain eye contact. Every time I tried to speak, my mouth felt dry and
Rayne's Revenge 161. Escape Plan
Zia’s POVSarah and I exchanged looks and began laughing. When we were tired of laughing, we started working. I began brushing the dust and dirt away while Sarah mopped the room. We worked for nearly two hours and the room was almost completely clean. I wiped the sweat on my forehead with the back of my hand. We rested a bit as we finished the work. Sarah lay beside me panting. I whispered to her. “What do you say about getting the hell out of here?”“You don't mean..?” Sarah whispered back, her gaze still fixed on the ceiling. “Yeah, leave her for good,” I answered. “How are we supposed to do that? The hospital thinks we are crazy and it would take a long time to convince them that we are sane enough to be discharged, we came here because of a crime,” Sarah replied. “I wasn't talking about convincing anymore. And for all I know, I am pretty sure they can tell we aren't crazy. We have to escape,” I said confidently.Sarah shivered and sat up immediately to think. “That would be
Rayne's Revenge 160. Madness In The Asylum
Zia’s POVI stood from my seat and approached her slowly with caution. The ranting and noisy chatter from the other patients didn't stop me. I got to her table and carefully sat on the opposite seat so as not to aggravate her in case I was wrong. “Hi,” I said, smiling. I looked around to make sure none of the nurses, doctors or any officials were watching. “I'm Zia,” I said, giving her my hand for a polite handshake. She looked at me with a hint of curiosity then at my free hand and she slowly let out her hand and shook mine. “Hey, I'm Sarah and I am not crazy.” She said calmly but in a happy voice. “Glad to see someone else has their head right. I was worried you would…” I said, but was unable to finish the words, afraid it would come off as offensive to her. “Koo Koo. Nuts missing and screws flying. Nah, I'm fine. I just act along sometimes so I get to be left alone and not poked with annoying needles all the time,” she explained. She was a chatty one and I liked that. I needed
Rayne's Revenge 159. Tough Days
Zia’s POVThe prison room was cold as I was alone in my room. I glanced at the toilet from my small bed. The bed was only large enough to carry only me. I felt devastated, angry at Rayne but pity for myself. How did I move from the queen of the business world to this? And Elliot? That bastard had betrayed me. I had betrayed him first but it still didn't give him the right to leave me like this.I had spent a month in this disgusting cell, the prison room was neat and I was lucky for someone to pay for me to stay alone after a week of torture and bruising from the other prison mates. I had begged the warden for a phone call to call my Dad, Rayne's father but he didn't respond to any of my calls. Maybe, it was Dad but I was moved to the upper-class prison cells where I could stay alone and not have to worry about fighting for where to sleep with five roommates for the night or being woken up with kicks. The inmates were cruel and I was subjected to slavery. I began to feel how my maid
Rayne's Revenge 158. Make Up
Make UpRayne's POV“Hello, sister,” Alex spoke softly as our eyes locked onto each other. “Excuse me? What did you just call me?” I asked puzzled. Did he just call me his sister? What was going on here? At that moment, the world stood still. Alex's words hung in the air as I stood frozen.“Sister. You're my sister.” Alex spoke softly. I stepped backward looking him up and down as if he was drunk. “Alex, I think you have the wrong person. Did you hear your head?” I asked with worry etched on my face. Alex walked forward, his hands outstretched to me trying to pacify me. “Rayne, I know this might come off somewhat crazy but I'm your brother. Your twin brother.”“Yo…your twin? What the heck? How's this even possible? I…I should have known. Dad should have known,” I stuttered.Alex hesitated then moved slowly to me unsure of how to proceed. “I…I just found out. It's been a few days. Nathan told me. He brought the test and..”“Nathan told you. Test results?” I asked startled. I eyed h
Rayne's Revenge 157. She Can't Keep Still
Rayne's POV“Nathan, Zia's out of prison. She got an appeal and somehow proved her insanity," I complained.“I know. I found out this morning. But that doesn't seem to be the only thing on your mind. What is it?” Nathan said, pulling back as his eyes locked onto mine. I took a deep breath and let it out. “I got a text just after I saw the news. It said the first strike. It was an unknown number and it called me but I was too frightened to pick up. First, Zia gets out and I know she's not smart to do this plus she is at the hospital.” “You think it's Lucinda?” Nathan asked calmly. “I don't know who to blame right now. Have you checked the CCTV footage?” I asked, hoping to find some answers. Nathan answered just immediately as if he was expecting me to ask the questions. “My men are working on it now.” Jack walked in at that moment. “We could find any suspicious activity or persons on the camera. The main circuit seemed to have been tampered with. I am guessing the footage was dele
