Allan took deep breaths to calm himself. The masked man was either a robot or a man like himself. Both ways, he hoped that his plan would work like the first time. He pulled a duvet over Cassandra and kissed her on the forehead. Gazing at her one more time, he smiled, strolled to the door, opened it, and stepped out.“Where is the masked man?” Allan asked Darel, who was pacing here and there. Even with the door unlocked, he knew that Darel wouldn’t come in unless he asked him to.“He managed to decode the main entrance and he’s working on decoding the other rooms,” Darel updated Allan rapidly. He had been watching the movements with Junior, who had grown an interest in hacking and was being trained by Allan. The boy was becoming good at it but could also be a great trouble if left on his own. As such, Allan ensured that Darel stayed with the lad anytime he was busy.“Where is Junior?” Allan asked.Darel was still skeptical about everything ongoing. If the masked man didn't shed blood,
The masked man found it funny because anyone who saw his real identity had to be taken down but also, because of the boy, he didn’t want to be violent yet. He had to find a way of getting the boy away from Allan. He was the reason why he hadn’t attacked yet. The robotic voice sounded,“You are already a dead man so I don’t mind revealing my identity to you.”The fear that encased the boy’s eyes made him want to eat back his words and he couldn’t tell if it was too late.“Please, don’t kill my uncle,” The boy pleaded, unknowingly weakening the man behind the mask. The robotic voice sounded,“Boy…”“My name is Junior Allan Great. My uncle is all I have and you are my hero please don’t hurt him,” the boy cut in pleadingly, the man behind the mask was broken. If not for the robotic sound that comes with the mask, his voice would have betrayed him.“Your uncle did some bad things and even if he isn’t alive, I promise to take care of you.”“No, I will never forgive you if you kill him,” Jun
Caddaric’s expression was frosty. He gave Allan the chance to live but he threw it back in his face. Holding the mask in one hand, he pulled out a revolver in the other. “So where is my sister?” He asked coldly. The robotic voice was gone, replaced with a rich velvety one, except that it was icy.Allan was too shocked to speak. This was unexpected and he could feel his plans crumbling before him. But how was it possible? Caddaric must have worn the masked man’s outfit to scare him. Allan did not believe it.“There must be a mix-up somewhere. The masked man began to operate…”“Thirteen years ago, and this mask cannot be duplicated,” Caddaric answered his question before he completed it, lifting the mask for him to have a closer look. It was true, no one could duplicate the mask because only one person produced it for Caddaric with all its accessories. If anyone was found to have a duplicate, then the producer would have to pay with his dear life but Allan was more bewildered and asked
Allan was excited. It was a start. For as long as he managed to be the one to force Caddaric to break all records of not shedding blood, things would take a good turn. He went to see Junior first. Darel and the rest were all hiding in their underground safe room and when they heard the beep sound before the door opened, Allan wasn’t surprised to see multiple guns pointed at him. His teammates were always ready for war and the gun was their strength.“You don’t need that, just lower it,” he said casually. His silicone mask was back on since his team members didn’t know his real face. Junior hugged him tightly on the legs and Darel patted him on the back congratulatorily but he already discerned that Darel still wanted to speak to him so he thought to do so before Cassandra woke up.“Junior, Darel, let’s go,” he hugged Junior on the shoulder and began to walk away as Darel followed. Everyone else came out and about their business.“How did it go?” Darel asked as soon as they got to All
“You know how to cook?” Junior asked with his eyes wide and mouth open. Cassandra smiled at how cute he looked. “Is it strange?” She asked him and his response astonished her. “Princesses don’t cook.” Cassandra laughed. No wonder Allan didn’t have time for women. Junior was a handful and quite interesting. “Well I’m not a princess,” she said seriously. Junior was about to refuse when Allan stepped in. “But…” “Junior, go and get Darel.” Junior had a dissatisfied look on his face before he went to do as told. Allan turned to Cassandra and said, “I’d like you to meet my best friend.” Darel was more relaxed when Junior told him that Allan wanted him to meet Cassandra, instantly feeling that Allan wasn’t keeping any secret as he thought. He just wanted Junior to meet Cassandra first and that made him a little guilty for his earlier perception. Coming face to face with Cassandra Blade for the first time, Darel realized the reason why Allan couldn’t get over her. The girl could be bot
“Your test results look fine,” a female gynecologist smiled and said to Ariana, whose hands were intertwined with Caddaric’s as they sat on a visitors’ chair in the gyno's office. Caddaric relaxed at last. If something had happened to the fetus, he was sure to take it on Allan but now, his heart warmed in expectation of the days ahead. He would have to protect Ariana from now onwards, especially from the Blades.“Thank you,” Ariana said with a smile, looking at Caddaric and blushed. At first, she was adamant about seeing the gynecologist since it was just a few days from when she ran from the hospital but hearing that everything was fine, even she felt relieved. She had initially wanted to go to a different hospital but Caddaric advised against it. The fewer people he had to deal with, the better. It was enough that they frequented one hospital. If news got out, it would be easy to handle.“Do you feel any discomfort?” The gynae asked Ariana, wondering about the relationship between
The stillness that followed their collaboration was earsplitting, if not perilous. Ariana had intentionally spilled the drink to take Caddaric’s attention from what Sebastian had just said, hoping that Caddaric wouldn’t try anything violent since the man hadn’t tried to hurt her. His intentions seemed rather plausible.Nevertheless, when her eyes met that of Caddaric, she feared something bad was going to happen and she couldn’t allow it. She reached out to pick a tissue but Caddaric reached it before her. He stood up and ambled to her in two slow steps, whiles he wiped the mango punch from the blouse she wore, also realizing that she was cold because of the ice cubes.His actions were gentle and no words were spoken. Sebastian looked on muddled, not knowing what was going on. Why was Caddaric treating his secretary like a gem? He already had someone he had to marry so the idea of anything going on between them wasn’t hailed.While he weldered in thoughts, he only heard manly footstep
Caddaric arrived with Ariana at his penthouse. As soon as they entered the room, Ariana covered his form with hers, hugging him tightly and grinding herself against him, making the man’s gaze darken with want for her. “Please Cadda, I want you right here and now.”She began to unbuckle his waist belt allowing, his black pants to fall and he was wearing one of the sexy boxers she bought for him. In as much as Caddaric wanted to grant her wish, he was still disturbed and asked worriedly, “Shouldn’t you eat first?”Ariana’s hands were all over him, her eyes on fire with desire as she spoke in deep breaths. “I can’t wait…I..”Her clothes were already ripped from her body, laying pitiably on the floor. What was it with Caddaric and his style of ripping her clothes off her? Whereas it was so sexy that it made her walls leak with her juices.It was when Caddaric lay on top of her on the sofa that she realized how much self-control the man had. He was so hard and when Ariana felt the veins ar
