Life has been demanding lately and I haven’t had a chance to chat with everyone. James was one of the people I needed to speak to for two reasons. He had taken a bullet trying to help me. He deserved my gratitude. He was partly responsible for how things turned out. Our lives were intertwined by various outcomes.
He was important to my sister because it was clear she was in love. He looked to feel the same too. All I want is to be certain that history doesn’t repeat itself. I know it was unfair to compare James to Nick but I need to be sure of his intentions.
Kioni could be a little driven when it comes to her feelings. She already proved it when she kissed him outside the courtroom with prying media around. She falls hard. I have had to block calls coming to the office of people who were offering free servic

JamesThe hotel room door opened before I could knock. Harper was startled, holding her chest and breathing deeply.“Sorry, I was about to ring the bell.”“It’s fine. Are you ready to go?” She asked.“Actually, I want to speak to Kioni,” I peered my head behind her, trying to get a better look at the room.“You don’t believe I apologized?” she narrowed her eyes.“No, that's not it.” I shook my head.“It’s cool,” she smiled. “I think she needs you, too. I can drive home.”“Oh, no! It’s late and

JamesLife was too short and unpredictable, and I didn’t want to waste it. I had faced a lot this year, but it was time to focus on the future. The future I was going to have with Kioni. I loved that woman with all my heart.I have had better days after our talk. Harper was doing well. My community service was going to end soon. Nigel and I have patched things out. I was venturing into art as a career. Things were good. I was happier.I made an appointment with Adam today for a small chat. I felt on top of the world. I whistled and hummed in the elevator. Adam was a great guy. I had respect for the man. I stepped out of the elevator and stopped feeling nervous.“Hey baby,” Kioni smiled, “What are you doing here?”

Harper Being in the Turner mansion again wasn’t as hard as it used to be. Adam made major changes. The house was glass, mostly with a dark and mysterious modern vibe. It was difficult to spot where we were held because he erased anything that poses as a reminder of that terrible time. Everything had been shifted and adjusted. The old version of the brick mansion was completely gone and forgotten.The living area was spacious. You could box a volleyball area downstairs in the living area. The ceiling went up so high the shards of sea glass chandeliers suspended looked like little disco lights. He had made an extension of the house and added more rooms. A few corners had stairs to link and guide to all the floors. The place had fifty-four rooms in total.Rich people moved differen

SebastianNick took a bold move, attacking Harper. He knew what he was doing and the result he wanted to have. I had gone through the feed again. I couldn’t identify him until he showed up in the garden. We were looking at the wrong information all along. No wonder he has been hiding all this time without us spotting him.I expected some changes from him, but I wasn’t this - this would have impressed me if he wasn't a criminal. Nick had shaved his hair. He had brown contact lenses to hide his blue eyes. The man had a tattoo on his neck. The person who had been in all the magazines didn't look like him. He looked like a complete stranger.He had the common face to pull off the look. His whole appearance made him look like a different person. He was easily blended with people as if he was not a wanted man. Hiding in plain

Morgan“Why would you suggest something like that?”“And why not?” I took a sip from my glass. “Nick has to be stopped.”“You could have just kept your mouth shut,” Gaby poured herself a glass.“That was friendly advice.”“Your friendly advice, as you call it, just made Kioni end things.”“You are exaggerating,” I smiled.“And you are the idiot. Kioni is my friend and I’m not going around giving him risky suggestions.”“Like is about taking risks sometimes,” I coolly respond.

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

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.

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

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
