I kept running in the woods, my feet were bleeding from being pricked by thorns and twigs, my muscles felt the fatigue and the adrenaline rush I was surviving on was almost depleted and yet the faceless guy in a red flannel shirt and a pair of blue jeans dungarees was still running after me with an axe the size of my hand. Why he was chasing me? No idea and whether it was real or not still no idea but it felt so real, the sweat trickling down my neck lines, through my cleavage and belly.The problem is it seemed as if I was running on a treadmill and like the guys behind me and any second that axe was going to break my skull open and spill my brains all over the place. Tried to scream but again it didn't get anywhere, the wind swept my sound waves away, no help was coming so it was upon me to run as a fast as I could although my feet felt heavier, tired and swollen. Out of options, I tried to bribe him."Please I'll give you money!"What the Fuck was I thinkingRelated chapters
THE DESPISED SON-IN-LAW; Mafia Boss Heir Chapter 83: Big task ahead
Blake Fresh air from the windows replenished my lungs upon breathing in a couple of times, I took another long puff of air and smiled, opening my eyes to another new day. As usual, a chance to make better out of what we already have, and also hoping for more like a kind word from a loved one. I was in high spirits that morning, my wounds were healed and I felt strong, there was a feeling in my mind that something good was coming. And if fate could be controlled how I wished it was Tessa. This time if she would take me back, everything was going to be different, even the hate and disklike for Gerald Wallace was going to be out on hold for some time...yeah some time because he was a douchebag that deserved some suffering for what he had made me go through. I just realized that as much as I wanted Tessa back there was a chance the beef between me and Gerald was going to be lifelong. Anyway on the nearby Couch lying innocently like the angel she was, Anita. God, she
THE DESPISED SON-IN-LAW; Mafia Boss Heir Chapter 84: Rush decision?
If there was someone who was not having a good morning was Gideon. The girl he was about to get engaged to in twenty-four hours was not talking to him. She was puffed up like a balloon and he seemed not to have the answers on what was causing those waves of bad attitude around her. It even made him go back to the events of the previous day, the guests he invited. Did he probably get cozy with them and she got jealous? It didn't make sense. In fact, their entire relationship didn't. Although they knew each other for the better part of their lives but less than a week back she was married... we're talking days here and they linked up once has sex and woke up feeling like they ought to get married.Which is okay. But the big question on his mind was, how long was it going to take before their massive egos collided? Her cold shoulder treatment made him question how quick it took them to settle for an engagement. Perhaps they should have taken some time to get to know each other bett

BlakeMaria or my mother in this case was good at getting people comfortable. When Johnson brought me to her I was a little scared of how weird it was going to be talking one on one, in our previous conversations there were people around giving a wide range of topics to talk about. She led us to one of the few operating cafeterias around, booked a table for two and we ordered water. Someone who didn't know us would have thought it was date for a couple that decided to have fun despite the raging civil war. Apparently, Bailey and her were using the same trick to stay younger for women their ages.Our conversation started from outside, the weather, political situation and how I was feeling. She also made me talk about Tessa and the Wallace family at large. Openly, no holding back. In life we're allowed to own our stories. Tell them as they are and if people want us to say nice things about them then they should behave better. As I peeled the onion on my miserable life at my su
THE DESPISED SON-IN-LAW; Mafia Boss Heir CHAPTER 86: The Fortune Teller
TessaWe were just coming back from a disgrace of a meeting with that delusional woman who called herself a fortune teller. Congratulations to her I was back to being mad at Gideon again. Yeah, it was all his fault. In a bid to try and help fix a problem he created more problems. Can you believe that witch said the dream was real and that my father and my family at large deserved all that was coming? And that was not even the thing that made me angry, she said I was never going to be happy in my life, ever?Who was she to pass that judgement? Who on earth told her I was not happy? Did she have any idea who the fuck she was talking to? The princess of the Wallace estate, my father was among the richest people in the country and even with the war nothing had changed not to mention I was his favorite child."Don't mind her" Gideon spoke for the first time since we boarded the vehicle, his tone was remorseful, this time he was taking the fault without waiting for an accusati

BlakeAfter a sleepless night of tossing on my bed, wishing morning would come and the doctor would do the checkup, allow me to go home and see the love of my life...it finally came and the energy in the air was stupendous, the birds singing and the whistling of the wind, my own heartbeat and some beeping of machines all connected to make a perfect rhythm. I lay in my bed my arms tucked, staring blankly in the white ceiling, a smile cracked on my face, mother nature had been kind to me and the supreme being had given us another chance to suffer, love, regret and make our stay on this borrowed planet worthwhile.That morning like all days I closed my eyes."Father lord, thank for another day in my life. A few days back I was in a comma beaten to a pulp but you turned my enemies into my friends and now the protect me. Father, today I don't want to stress you with much, please see me through the day and give me back the love of my life, you know her more than I do and you h

The whole family swarmed in on Blake as they carefully forced him out of the venue without causing much alarm, the crowd was already alarmed but those who knew Wallace and his family so we were both surprised. What was a Wallace party without some drama?"I just want to talk to Tessa then we can see if this joke of a party goes on""You don't get to insult me" Growled Gideon, he even wanted to punch him lights out but Gabriel held his hand. No one was really in the mood for violence that day for Christ sake they were dressed to party and have fun, dance, drink and those who could even have sex!"Calm down Gideon" Bailey said rather politely, "what do you want?""To talk to Tessa nothing else""Okay go ahead, but not here and we're not leaving her sight for as much as I care you might have goons out there planning to take her" that was the condition and it was good for him to have an audience so that they could all hear him convince her to be his again.Funny

Have you Imagined how you want your Eulogy to look like? Most of us haven't. The brutal angel of death paid the Red crescent Mafia family a visit again. It was Saturday afternoon, a gloomy day for real even the weather could attest, the sun was too afraid to come out, hidden behind the dark clouds and the rain was now ruling, beating the ground into a wet submission, all the family members were dressed in black with the servants holding umbrellas for them leaning on each other's shoulders their eyes bloodshot from prolonged crying.

At eight in the evening, everyone in the Red crescent manor was gathered at the ceremonial grounds. Circular in shape with seats made of mortar almost like an ancient Roman arena, there was a podium decorate with high end seats where the elders and the family priest sat. No one from the family had arrived yet and there was confusion everywhere with rumors circulating among the employees."I think we're being sent packing, I don't even know where to start from my whole life is in this beautiful place" one said sounding disturbed."Who said we're being send packing?" Asked another."It's just a rumor. We don't have proof" argued someone from behind, they were all whispering as though it was a crime to talk.

BlakeIt was another beautiful morning at the Red crescent manor. In my silk robes with a cup of coffee I was standing at the balcony, watching over my family estates, employees moving from one direction to another going on with their duties, their children happily playing in the field waiting for school time. Mum and Lilian had dedicated much of their time to doing that, teaching and donating foodstuffs, rescuing colts from dangerous gangs. It was the good I could do.After messing up the first time when God showered me with blessings I wasn't going to repeat the same mistake. This time I was going to use my influence to make sure that nature wasn't going to raise another Blake. No kid was going to be a pauper and mistreated under my watch and what better way to start doing that than in my own home? Anita and her sister Beatrice helped with the teaching, her younger brother James was there too among the students. My family had become big when her sister and brother moved in. Her moth
THE DESPISED SON-IN-LAW; Mafia Boss Heir Chapter 94: At his mercy
Within two weeks, Gerald Wallace had lost the trust of his family, his friends and all his lands he acquired illegally. Beginning with the one in the outskirts of the war tone city, that used to be a children's home that he mercilessly grabbed and sent the kids to the streets. Fate was back to bite him in the ass because one of the kids he threw on the streets was Blake. He reclaimed the land using the manpower he had, a new building was being erected as the war continued. No one dared stand in his way days after he left a trail of bodies when he visited a rival mafia gang that for long had perfected the unholy act of human trafficking. As a result, all the other gangs that were doing illegal businesses were keeping their heads down and others were now even reaching out to be friends. And once again, the red crescent Mafia family was on everyone's radar and the name Blake send shivers down the spines of those who didn't not stand for what he believed. In a matter of days, he had acquir

BlakeTheir eyes almost popped out of their sockets when I got up with the gun at hand. Their guards rushed to the scene but they were just a handful of them. Forming a barrier between me and their bosses. It felt good to taunt them, but I had no intention of killing any of them I just wanted to see the family suffer and not feel safe, feel like everything they had could be taken from them anytime, feel afraid like I used to every time Bailey called out my name or when she slapped the taste out of my mouth."Let's see, you're ten and I have fourteen armed another three dozen just waiting for my call, plus myself and Carlos and Johnson we're seventeen bad asses here right now""What about me?" Anita asked feigning disappointment. She knew how to taunt people, our common goal, to make Gerald pay. She wanted him dead more than I did."You'll sit back and watch me slaughter all these bastards, then I'll bring you the head of the man who had your father killed"Now that was one way to send
THE DESPISED SON-IN-LAW; Mafia Boss Heir Chapter 92: Prodigal son?
A couple of days after Anita's controversial visit peace and cohesion had not been a regular visitor at the Wallace manor. It all started with Gideon and Tessa, that same day over dinner Gideon seemed to be in a foul mood, he avoided conversations and when Tessa became too inquisitive he blew up in anger. Asked for some air, got in his car and drove out of the compound. That was new, but there was something he wasn't telling them and they were yet to find out, too late though and the one carrying that news was a not so welcoming person.Anyway, Gideon left Tessa under a cloud of sadness that no one seemed to have a solution to and perhaps that was because each of them had problems of their own. Bailey had to divide her attention and look out for her family or watch them perish. Gerald had lost his smile and control of the home. He spent most of his time drinking in his office and conversing with the butler, Tessa was in her room doing whatever it was she was doing and Gabriel. He was

Anita was seated in the most hostile of environments she had ever been. All the Wallace's including the new one who was glued to Gabriel like a monkey on a tree were glaring through her and ironically it was only Gerald who seemed to want her there, he was the calm and relaxed, patient as Anita took her time to taunt them with her silence and tension. The problem is she didn't care much about Gerald's show of concern and mercy. I was all fake, had she known why he was too nice to offer her a job in the first place she wouldn't have taken it. He was a murderer and thank God he had no idea what was coming.Those couple of minutes she sat there, dozens of ways she could have strangled him to death had crossed her mind. It was surely taking every ounce of self-control for her not to jump on him and try it."Are you going to keep us waiting forever. Unlike you we have some things to do" Tessa was not a fan of waiting."Okay, I'll go straight to the point. Blake sends his rega
