Jackson sat with his mother, Clara, across the table as she pinned him to his seat with the usual determined gaze she had on.

She was here again, in his office space, either to remind him of what he had to do or ask him about a special thing.

Whichever it was, he was ready to give her a listening ear. At least that's what he's done for a better part of his adult life.

"Hello, Mum. How are you doing." Jackson asked the moment Clara sat down.

"I'm not so fine, son."With the tone she used, one would think she was I'll but in her tone laid an indepth of deceit a person well descending would hear.

"How can I sleep well knowing that my son holds nothing in his father's house? Isn't that equal to being a nobody?" Then Clara rose up and her face turned sullen. Wanting to cause drama, she went and pulled hard on Jackson's arm.

"You have to do this one thing to make me proud." She entreated and Jackson's next words mysybhave gladdened her heart.

    Dave walked in and Kristen frowned hard, pretending he wasn't happy to see Dave, his best friend. The young man hadn't contacted him in a while now and he wanted to pretend he was still mad at him for that.He concentrated on the screen before him as he replayed the televised version of the competition Melissa participated in."You've been watching this video over and over again, what's going on, Kristen?" Kristen's friend, Dave asked and Kristen had to dodge his crazy friend getting a hold of the phone in his hand.He gave Dave a stern look. "Don't touch me.""Well, just wanted to drop by and enjoy a cup of coffee with you," Dave said but Kristen didn't even spare him a glance."Alright, what's going on? How's it been on your side?" Kristen asked and shook hands with Dave, shocking the hell out of Dave. Wasn't he the one mad at him just now?"You know why I don't trust you, Dave? the last time you came here, I was looking for a female worker." Kristen joked. In as much as Dave was r

    In a dark, lonely, and seemingly endless passageway, Victoria wandered, trying her hands on the wall for any trace of a light bulb.Due to her fruitless venture, fear crept into her like a recoiling snake and she felt so helpless, she almost passed out, but somehow, she managed to stand on her two feet.An eerie silence that threatened to sweep her off her feet enveloped the atmosphere and she was at a loss of what to do.As if to add to her fear, the sound of approaching footsteps terrified her and made the hair at the back of her head, just near her neck, stand on end."I am your worst nightmare, Vic, you stole what belonged to me and now, you'd have to use your blood to make it up."A voice she recognized as Melissa spoke and continued in the animal-like approach. She wondered why the voice had to call her by her name for short, when everything in the dark passageway spelled danger, stealthily lurking near."Stop, whoever you are, stop!" She yelled, using all the energy left within

    Melissa came home crying. If Alex knew he was going to do something like this, why didn't he let her lose the first time instead of letting her go to the international level and still not make it?Her soul was so sad, that she could not be consoled."You've been crying all along, what's wrong?" Kristen who had gone to the airport to pick her asked. Her eyes had been red and she had been shedding silent tears ever since."I went there and got the worst of luck I've ever had in my life. I lost Kristen when I was supposed to win." She turned to Kristen.He couldn't bear seeing her in tears, so he draped his hand around her shoulder and handed her a handkerchief."What happened over there? If you were supposed to win, then why didn't you?""I don't know..." She shook her head pitifully, then quickly added "It's Alexander, he got the panel cooked up against me even before I got there and I couldn't win."She hiccuped, then wiped her tears and snort with the handkerchief he gave her.Kriste

    Alexander was in a pool of thoughts he found difficult to escape. He knew he hated Melissa but at the same time, he couldn't let anyone do anything intimate with him like they did in the past.He was still deep in thought when his phone rang, disrupting his deep meditation."Hello." He put the phone closer to his ear."Alex, we have a date today, I'm already at the venue, waiting for you."Alex didn't know what to respond with. He had told her to go on a date with him and now she was fully prepared. For his name's sake, he knew he couldn't back down. Anyway, if she tried any of her seducing skills, then he was sure to leave the place.Victoria was eating and chatting away as he stared at her with a fake smile dancing on his lips. To her, he was present on that date, but yet, he was far gone and she didn't know it."The potatoes are well fried and I like the chicken. Many people do like sweet and sour cream, do you?" Victoria asked but he wasn't there with her."Yeah, huh?" He asked wh

Maybe not, because if she had seen it, she would have come around to talk about it with him.Hopefully, that was no longer the trending news because Dave had helped him with the media.He wondered if he would be brave enough to face his mother and brother who want nothing else but his downfall.He wished their father was alive because if he was, then Clara wouldn't even dare imagine the kind of thing as to make him switch positions with his brother.He could remember when he saved Clara years ago from the cold hands of death that were clawing at her throat.An enemy mafia organization that hated the success of

    "Can I see the manager of this place?" Alex demanded hotly. Anyone who saw his face would know that he was being serious."She is busy right now, sir, could you please come back an hour later when she'll be ready." Catherine, one of the workers said with a slightly lowered tone than his, yet he was unable to notice she was pleading."No, I must see her now." He demanded more fiercely."But sir...." Catherine was trying to make him reason with her when Melissa cut her short, she knew Alex more than everyone else at the Best restaurant, and he wasn't giving up any time soon."Catherine, please take over from where I stopped," Melissa said, pulled her hand gloves, and handed them over to Catherine, the lady who was serving customers.Melissa was helping to prepare dough for today's snack when she started hearing loud arguments from outside and she decided to intervene."What do you want from me?

    After they disengaged from the hug, Victoria drew back and cleaned her tears, then, again, she stared at Hermes for a while as different thoughts ran through her head."What about the Kristen guy, what did you find on him," Victoria asked, all expectant about the answer he was about to give her."He is who you think he is and he is living with her. He loves her with his heart."Hermes said and Victoria raised an eyebrow, twirled her hair around her finger, and bit her lips."Come to think of it, why is it that this bitch always got the big shots?" She asked and narrowed her eyes.******"You called me here.""Yeah, uhm, can I ask you for a favor?"

He asked her, his expression concealed because of the dark shades he wore."That's not important. What's important is what I want to discuss with you." Victoria said, locking gazes with Kristen "That's the reason we are here in the first place, so what's that?" Kristen asked, he needed her to convince him he didn't get to come here in vain and go straight to the point."I was thinking we had something in common." She thinned her lips and looked away."Can you be clear with that?" He asked. He had no much time on his side."Someone has been ta

Kristen was glad about what he was seeing but he tried his best to pull off a grim expression."Hello there. Who would have thought that Alexander would be here, slitting Victoria's throat?"

    Alex worriedly walked around the hospital lobby like he had lost his mind. Melissa had lost so much blood before they came to the hospital. Coupled with this fact, the doctor had told him that there was very little chance she could come out of the operation room alive.When the doctor told him that his baby's life and the life of Melissa were at risk, he had pleaded with the doctor to save the life of his wife.

    Kristen stopped at some certain place and alighted from the car. Sophia alighted from the car, seeing that Kristen seemed to be in a hurry."I need you to be strong with whatever you're gonna hear in there. I didn't want you to come with me but you're one stubborn girlfriend." Kristen said and held her hand as they briskly walked in.Now inside the building, the first sight that came into view was a magnanimous conference room that made Sophia wonder if there were such rooms as big as this in the world."Stop the meeting, he is no heir of my father." An old man coughed and slowly cast his gaze to the entrance where Kristen stood with Sophia beside him. "You've been dethroned, young man, you have no rights here." The old man said and leaned back in his seat as though he was already tired. He was the executive head and the oldest man in the Shelvis Cooperation. He even had this company and mafia association built with Kristen's Father."I have evidence. Evidence to show that you all a

When he kissed her forehead just now, she was fast asleep."Please stay with me, I can't sleep without you," Sophia uttered with her eyes still closed.Kristen sat back down on the bed and after a while, Sophia fell asleep. He tried to sneak out of the room again, but he heard Sophia say another, "Please, Kristen, don't leave me. I feel so cold and lonely."Kristen shrugged and got under the covers with her. A night of cuddling with her was going to not harm right?Despite that he had a lot of things he wanted to do that night, he decided to sh

    "I'm sorry, Melissa, but we couldn't just be like this forever. I just came to say that I'm sorry for everything that happened over the years." Melissa's mother, Lauren said and Melissa scoffed."How on earth do you want me to do, Lauren? You fucking saw that Dad abandoned us and then you had to leave too, huh?" By now, Melissa was already emotional."Babe, we should have this conversation inside the house," Alex said and touched Melissa's arm, causing her to calm down a bit."Please come in, Lauren."

    Melissa watched Alex and Mia training from afar and she smiled. After Alex found out that she was pregnant, he began to treat her like she was some delicate egg.No matter how hard she had begged to train with them, Alex had refused. Saying that from then on, she was only allowed to do the warming-up exercise and nothing else."Hey, you thirsty?" Alex was beside her before she even blinked. Before she could get her mind wrapped around what was happening, Kristen stretched a can of water to her."I can feel it when you're thirsty.""Alex, can I ask you something?" Melissa made a face until Alex asked, "What's it that you want to ask?" Alex asked as he drank a little water. He had excused himself from the training grounds just to come to be with her. That was the thing with mates. They just couldn't stay apart from each other."I want to go home. I mean, I'll keep falling sick while I'm here and I can't bear the heat and stress. of this place.
