“Do you think it’s the right time to ask Dani out?”
“That’s the question you want to ask right now?” Morgan exclaimed, staring at me.
“Yes,” I looked behind to where he sat and his jaw dropped.
I was at Turner Corp in my father’s old office. The place I used to spend all my days after school as a teenager when he was not around. I looked outside the glass window again. There were a lot of memories here. This is where my father and I bonded over the years before they killed him. I clenched my fists and took a deep breath.
I was waiting for a bunch of old men and woman to call me to the conference room. They needed a few minutes to settle down before we got to business. They had their

AdamThe move I just made was bold and dangerous. The board was powerful, and they had connections. I was out of commission for ten years and people are going to be weary of me. They will not trust me to run things. I didn't care that much about that factor because my list of trustworthy people at the moment was few.I was going to stand with my risk because I had the capital for it. Sebastian signed over all the money to my sister and me the moment they released him from prison six days ago. He was the one man that took me by surprise. He didn’t want the money, regardless of how much I offered. Instead, he offered to look for Nick.I would not force the man, so I agreed. He might not want the money, but he had the right to be a member of Turner Corp. The other person I would love to have a seat at board meetings. Not any of

KioniI couldn’t go anywhere without people following me. People who were guarding me. People who were trying to get a story from me. I hate being the centre of attention. Unlike my brother, he was always in the spotlight back then and now. He was making sure he was in the spotlight. I’m with him all the way, but he needs to learn some self-control.“You my dear brother,” I pointed at him when I barged into dad’s old office, “You fired the board and went straight to address the press?”“Hey Kioni,” he looked up at me from the chair.“What did I tell you?”“The speech was pointless, Ki.” Adam shrugged at me. “I made the best decision. I wasn’t going to beg the

JamesThough the call I had for Morgan was relayed later because of the shooting. Sebastian was able to be released from prison as soon as they sent word to Adam. Couldn’t say I missed the guy, but it was great for him to get his freedom.As a parting gift, he left me the cellphone. He gave some 101 prison tricks. It hasn’t been pretty being in here as a cop. Some in mates itched to pick a fight with me. It was like I was the number one enemy.I have had to endure a few beatings. Sebastian's tips only helped a couple of times. The rest was me getting my ass beat. My bruised body thrilled Pam because she was going to use this in court today.I groaned as I buttoned the shirt in the court change room. Pam got me a suit. I didn’t remember the last time I wore one. I shaki

JamesI don't know what made Kioni do what she did, but I liked it. No. Like was not the right word. I loved it a lot. I felt like a teenager all over again. A teenager who was in love all over again. I was so much in love with Kioni Turner.I hadn’t told her this and I’m sure we still have to talk, but my feelings for her never faded. They all rushed the moment we kissed. It was like the missing connection had been put back into place.Harper was eyeing me from the corner of her eye the entire ride home. Home? Gosh, it felt like I had been in prison for the longest time, yet it was not over two weeks. I smiled again.“Would you stop smiling?” She huffed.“Can’t I be happy? This doesn’t happen to many peop

Nigel After my cousin tore the entire station upside down. Most of us were all called back. I walked into the station at the same time as Ridley. We gave each other a nod and walked in silently. We were not friends. It is no secret that the station was under investigation. Many people had been fired, arrested or removed pending further instructions. Guess I was about to find which category I was going to fall under when I saw Tori. “Detectives!" she chirped. Ridley and I share a look. What the fuck was up now, look? “Come on!” she spun and walked up to Romans’ office. Ridley shrugged and followed, and I did the same. Both of us seemed in no mood for words today. I stroked my jaw and walked to the

James When my name was called, I was making a big pot of soup. Apparently, I had visitors. I dropped the ladle on the table and took off my gloves. “You already in trouble with the law?” the supervisor shook his head and pointed at the visitors. Nigel and Ridley were standing near the entrance. “Well, this is a new look?” Ridley took a picture, laughing. “Would make a nice wallpaper.” “Aww, I didn’t know you cared,” I held my chest, “Fuck you too,” I hissed at him. “Have some respect. There are children around.” Nigel added, looking at me. “What do you two want?” I crossed my arms. “To talk,” Nigel

Kioni Adam could wait. James needed me. I had muted my cell phone that was lighting non-stop. Adam was very persistent, but so was I so I ignored him. The appointment was my check up. I would reschedule once I made sure the man beside me was fine. “Miss, let me do a sweep of the area and inside.” “Not now Craig. You are not invading his home.” “It’s for your safety.” “Not now. Please stay outside.” I looked at him and he nodded. “Lead the way,” I said, smiling at James, who was awfully quiet the entire ride. He walked me in and closed the door behind him. I blushed when he looked at me before he frowned. “How do you know where I live?”

Kioni Growing up, my mother always warned me about my free spirit. She told me to always be a little cautious with my feelings. I thought today was going to be one of those days. I got to be happy, but I was hurt. Craig stopped the car at Springs Hotel and looked at me. He was waiting for me to give him the go ahead that I was ready to go in. The media was out there. Seemed they had set a camp outside the hotel waiting for me and my brother constantly. I couldn’t wait for our house to be done. Adam was doing renovations. I nodded, and Craig told the others outside to clear a way for me. I wiped my tears and walked in with my head low. Craig helped push the cameras off my face as he covered his jacket over my face. I was a sobbing mess before I walked in. This attention was getting too much.

KioniTrue happiness is what I felt. We were sitting having breakfast before the guys left the table, one after the other. It was all so weird. I looked around the table and everyone seemed to be oblivious. I wanted to go check what was happening outside, but the girls stopped me and began having a conversation about what we had for our dinner last night.“I should get the recipe and make this for Wayne.”“I’m not a skilled cook, but I loved the sauce.” Dani added.“That meat was so tender.” Gaby smiled.“Mhh, it was melting in my mouth.” Faith chided.“Faith ate for two.” Harper laughed&ldq

HarperA few months later,I had made some progress and was ready for this holiday. Tomorrow is going to be a big day. I looked at my suitcases and gleefully smiled.“Harper!”“Coming,” I shouted. I ran down the stairs. “What?” I scoffed.Sam has been my bodyguard. This was not by choice. It was annoying. I preferred the other guard, though I don’t remember his name. He never talked much. Unlike Sam, who takes every chance to speak.“You have a visitor,” he said. “Make it quick. We have to leave soon. I’m not getting in trouble because of you.”“

AdamWith my injured leg and James’ injured shoulder, we almost struggled to keep Harper steady. Her strength was almost impossible to rear.“Thank you.” James said with a sigh.“Don’t mention it.”“It’s over.”“Yeah, it is,” I said, looking at the car where Nick was.“I should go with her to the hospital.”“I’m right behind you.” I nodded.James and my sister left with Harper in the same ambulance. Sebastian, Morgan and Gaby had also gone ahead. We were all being taken to Dawson Hospital

SebastianLesson learnt. Nick was just as canny as his father. He kept surprising me. He had an army. Over twenty men, I'm sure. He knew we were coming. He was prepared. I didn’t do enough to catch him. I should have followed the money theory harder. If I was aware of how vigorous he was, things would have been different. We wouldn’t be in this situation. Nick was worse than his father.“You two stay here. Help is almost here. I have to get in there.”“Don’t get killed,” Adam said.“Be careful,” Nigel said.I gave them both a nod and moved. I was a little rusty, but I prayed I could manage. I ran inside, dodging all the bullets. Before I got in, I saw him ducking his head. Nigel had my back.

NickHiring people to take Kioni to the mansion was a plan in the works for a long time. All the months of planning and watching from afar were necessary. I was going to take Kioni either way. She belonged to me. They all underestimated me. Underestimating the love I felt for her. She was mine, and I was going to make it crystal clear.Everything was set. I was prepared for a fight. One of two things was going to happen. Kioni was going to come to me or I was going to go take her. No army of guards was going to stop me because I had an army of my own. An army I spent a lot of money on and they were the best.Charles taught me one thing that stuck with me. Being resourceful and passionate enough to grasp the moment. My moment was now staring at me. They really made it easy for me. We were going to get married. She looked stunning in that

HarperThey always sideline me. As much as they were, I was involved in this as well. I would be devastated if something happened to Kioni or Gaby. I was actually devastated. That’s why when they were leaving, I followed them.I jumped into Morgan’s car with the bodyguard. He didn’t even know his boss had left with the others when I told him to drive. We were not really seeing eye to eye because the drive started off in an argument.“You know you are going to get me in trouble,” he eyed me with the corner of his eye.“I don’t care. Just drive.” I yelled.“I don’t even know where they went.” he yelled back.“They must have driven pa

KioniMy head hung low from a chair. I opened my eyes and looked around. My hands were chained to a chair. I sat straight and looked around.“Gaby!” I shouted. She was lying on the floor. “Gaby. Wake up.”“You are awake,” Nick emerged from behind me. “How do I look?”“What are you doing?” I asked him, “What did you do to her?”“Come on, Kiki,” he laughed, “This is what we always wanted.”“I don't want this.” I creased my face in disgust. “I know everything you did to me.”“I did nothing you didn’t want.” he walked a

MorganMy phone was ringing, but it was not on the nightstand. It was ringing somewhere on the floor close to the door; I think. My head was pounding like crazy. Someone shaking me made me open my eyes. I blinked a couple of times, hoping the room would stop spinning.I stumbled off the bed and looked around. There were two women in my bed and one on the floor. I did not know what was going on. The ringing was so loud. All I wanted was to go back to bed. Sleep off the dizzy.“Make it stop.” the woman on the floor stirred.I moved to find my phone. I had no idea what the hell was happening. When I got my phone, I almost threw it on the floor. I wanted to hurl. I scrunched and answered the call.

SebastianThe shouting inside was hurting my ears even as I stood outside smoking. I don’t even know how they all ended up shouting like that. They have all drifted, of course, from the actual issue.Morgan’s idea made sense. Nick would do anything to get to Kioni. All this time we had focussed on that factor. We had her protected at all times that it was difficult for him to try something. That’s why he easily spotted the weaker spot.Harper.How many weak spots could he see? I drew a big puff and stared at nothing. I wish I could drown all the noise. Prison was usually peaceful at this time of the night. Their annoying fighting was actually making me miss the serenity.“I thought you had gone home,” I to
