2021-08-28 02:07:33Daniel dragged himself out of the shower with his towel tied loosely around his waist. He looked like he carried the burdens of the world on his shoulders as he walked to his bed like an animal being led to the slaughter.
He got to his bed and plonked down on it with a groan. He picked up his phone to check for messages or calls from Dane but only saw that of Capri's.
Capri had been bothering him for days now to know when they were meeting again. He hadn't relented even when Daniel ignored him most of the time and just as he was about the drop the phone, he called again.
With a swipe, he picked the call and lifted the phone to his ear.
"Hello..." He intended his voice to come out as a threatening growl but it only came out weak and one could tell he was tired and nearing his end.
"Is that the best you can do?" Capri chuckled at his vo

Sleep was a stranger to Red that night. She wasn't composed, she couldn't have dinner earlier and she couldn't sleep.She sat up all night wondering what would have happened if she had heard Daniel out, he never trusted you! The words stabbed her and she concluded she did the right thing not being nice to him.When she couldn't take her thinking anymore, she picked up her phone and called Dane while still sobbing and shaking."Hello..." Dane picked up the call, all he wanted was some sleep but it seems he was getting none of it tonight."Dane, he called." Red sniffed, "And I heard his voice and God I love him so much. He said he was sorry and that he had a lot of things to say but I can't...""Take a deep breath." Dane said trying to calm her down, "Calm down Babe.""How did he get my new line?" She asked him."He forced it out of me." Dane

"Excuse me for a moment." Avianna said to her husband and the high societal members he was with, "I will be back in a while.""Where are you going?" Ra held her hand stopping her from moving, "We have guests, you can't possibly leave now."She huffed before tiptoeing to whisper in his ear. He was much taller than her, "I have been watching Red for quite sometime and ever since she received that phone call she seemed a bit disturbed.""Oh!" He was worried now, "Should I come?""No, there wouldn't be any need for that." She said, "I will be back soon, don't miss me too much love." She kissed him on the lips before leaving and she could still feel his gaze lingering on her as she went.She smiled to herself a bit as she made her way through the thriving crowd in the ball room. They had thrown a party which they did annually inviting all the neighboring countries of different royalties and var

Daniel had always hoped for a reunion with his father over the years even after finding about his death. He still dreamt that one day he could meet him again but he never envisaged their meeting to be in a tiny and dusty one windowed cell, with him bleeding and terribly injured.The two men remained in the embrace they had shared once finding out who they were to each other and they shed tears being all emotional after seeing each other for a very long time."Daniel, my boy." Hart rubbed his son's head fondly, "You have grown so big.""Dad..." He trailed off crying, "You are alive!" He wrapped his bleeding hands around his Dad smearing his dirty white shirt with blood."How is your mother? Oh my sweetheart, I have missed her so much." Hart's heart tore as he mentioned his wife they way it tore anytime he thought of her, "And Kim, your sister, I have missed you all so much.""Kim is d

Splash! He hissed in pain as the freezing water loaded with ice cubes met with his bare skin and making contact with his fresh open wounds.His tormentor released a sinister laugh obviously satisfied at his victim's anguish and flung another bucket of freezing water at him.This time Daniel yelled out not being able to control his pain anymore."Shut up!" Capri lashed him behind with the leather whip that had metal spikes in it that always pierced deep into Daniel's skin, "You sound like a dog!""I will end you!" He growled, "It's just a matter of time, just wait till I am free!"Capri held onto his hair with an iron gripped and yanked his head back, Daniel's scalp was strained, "That's if I let you walk out if here alive!" He whispered in his ear, "By the time I am done with you and I end your pathetic ex

"You said you were going for a vacation Red, so why is everywhere around you filled with trees and bushes." Ra eyed his daughter peering forth into the screen, "Vacations should consists of beaches and waters, right?""Ra, leave the poor child!" Avianna groaned, "She can chose where she wants to be.""I..." Red cleared her throat thinking of a suitable lie, "I just decided to connect with nature so here I am." She shrugged, "I am appreciating nature dad."He raised a brow at her.She walk towards a bush with sunflowers bent a bit and plucked one, "Oh look what wonderful flowers."He rolled his eyes, "At least tell us where you are, your mother and I can use a vacation too you know?""Okay, bye dad, bye mum." That was her cue to leave and she ended the video call immediately. She stuffed the phone back in her pocket and sighed.That was close! She

The pounding on the door increased followed by muffled curses. Capri and Bina grabbed their guns aiming it at the door. Daniel sighed wondering who the hell that idiot was and hoping the person wasn't one of his men cause he knew it couldn't be Dane."It's suppose to break just like in movies." They all heard a frustrated groan, "Stupid door!"It sounded like the voice of a woman.Daniel strained his ears trying to decipher whom the voice belonged to but he couldn't and then came a hand bursting through the door."That fucking hurt like a bitch bite!" The intruder howled and then a leg too followed and it became apparent that she was stuck in her present position, "Can someone help me please!"Capri and Bina giggled and then they remained silent with their guns still pointed at the door.They watched as she moved her hand and located the doorknob. She twisted it and the do

He was finally alone with her and he so badly wanted to reach out and caress her hair just like he used to. He wanted to draw her close and feel the soft silken fibers between his fingers.He couldn't say anything he just stared at her as she looked at him with raised brows. She hadn't changed much. Her eyes were still of a brighter blue color and her skin had remained beautifully pale and it looked like she had gained a bit of weight."So, this is the first time we are meeting after a long ass time and you are just gonna stare at me without saying nothing?" Red frowned as she didn't like that Daniel was quiet, "I didn't risk my ass to come here just for you to be silent." She said, "I could ha...""I love you." He smiled cutting her short, "Come here."She moved her chair jerking as she did till she was very close to him. He brought his face closer to hers and their forehe

No! That wasn't a gunshot, it should be a bomb, a grenade or a dynamite! Red tried to figure out what the deafning bang had been as she lay on the floor still strapped to the chair. She gagged and spat out the dust from her mouth.When the sound went off, it felt like the whole ground vibrated and the quake had sent them all to the floor as dust and smoke covered every where.She tried to see through the mist of dust and smoke but couldn't see a thing as she peered her eyes, straining them. It looked like walls had fallen around them causing rumbles but she couldn't quite tell."Daniel! Daniel!" She yelled as she tried to wiggle herself free from the bounds but there was no response, "Daniel! Are you alright?" Her screams seemed to be unheard. Daniel opened his eyes and it took him a while to recollect all that had happene

A year and some months later."Daniel! Red!" Dane yelled his face contorting in anger and embarrassment, "Come and look what your child did!" He cried out as he felt more of the liquid seeping through his pants.The little girl giggled at him revealing her milk teeth with her thumb stuck in her mouth, "D...D..." She chanted.Dane growled at her."Why are you growling at my child?!" A very furious Red rushed into the room as she tried to balance her crown on her head, "I would hang you!"The child chuckled as if agreeing with her mother as she bubbled with excitement when Red approached."Like daughter like mother!" He growled, "She wet herself on me jeez, I don't want to do this anymore!""No! No!" Daniel walked into the room grinning at his best friend's predicament, "You came in minutes ago whining about how we do not let you spend time with the

"Daniel!" His name came from her lips in a whispered shock. She couldn't believe he was right there clutching to her window looking really tired. He looked haggard making her wonder what he had gone through to get to her. His hair was a mess and she could see leaves and twigs sticking out of it. His face had some bruises and his eyes spelt tired.He looked like the male version of an old hag."Well, look what the cat dragged in." She snorted with folded arms as she watched Daniel debate within himself if he should enter into the room or just stay clutched to the window."Why didn't a wolf drag me in instead?" He sassed back, "Can I come in?" He asked her as he watched her stand with folded arms in a very sheer night gown. He could feel his desire stir.Focus Daniel! Focus! He chided himself."Why do you need my permission to get in?" She smirked, "You already climbed up all the wa

Red could swear that she had heard Daniel calling her name but then again she thought she was hallucinating.It's not like he could just barge into the castle and demand that he wants me back in his life, She shook her head in disbelief, You are almost a Queen Red, you shouldn't be having such bizarre thoughts and imaginations."Does something ail you my dear?" The voice broke her from her thoughts and she looked at the person in front of her."No, nothing." She shook her head, "I just remembered something.""You can talk to me about anything you know." He persisted and Red was a bit irritated."Your Highness, prince Roland." She cleared her throat, "Could we proceed with the lunch?""Yes of course." He said and immediately dug into the food, "So, about my proposal, what do you think?"Red

Daniel thought he could just walked into the Castle, find Red, proclaim his undying love to her, she accepts him and boom they get married but boy, was he wrong.He couldn't believe the he was being dragged out of the palace premises by his hair and he was carried and thrown out landing face flat on the ground.He sat up with a groan rubbing his face as it ached, he hadn't even managed to get into the palace before he got caught and thrown out.He got up to his feet and and walked away from the castles gates. He had to make a phone call and also get food to eat. Dane couldn't stop squealing with laughter over the phone very much to Daniel's irritation. He had related his experience to him and he erupted in full blown laughter mocking his predicament."Can you stop laughing?" Dani

Daniel closed his laptop with a sigh. He leaned back on his chair with his hands folded behind his head. His gaze was fixated on his door half expecting Red to walk in ungracefully with a teasing smile on her lips and tinkling blue eyes filled with mischief.He knew that wasn't going to happen. Him expecting her to walk through that door like before. He had let her go out of anger and now he deeply regretted it.It's been days, weeks and months since he last saw Red. He hadn't seen the woman he loved for a very long time. He hadn't seen her long luscious red hair that shone brightly, he hadn't gazed into her blue eyes in a long time. Her voice was foreign to him now as he hadn't heard it in a long time. He missed her a whole lot and as time passed he had tried to reach her but she wanted nothing to do with him. She only spoke with Dane and sometimes the rest of the family. She had blocked him everywhere and changed lines and h

Red stared at Daniel silently willing him to say something but his mouth was sealed in a tight line. She saw how his eyes glowered in anger and betrayal as he looked at her."Say something please?" She licked her lips as they suddenly became dry, "You are scaring me." She watched his brows furrow."I don't understand what you just said Red." Daniel said to her shaking his head, "What do you mean?""I want you to say something, you aren't responding to what I told you earlier.""I want to hear it again." His voice was stern."I have parents and I am the crown princess of Cladonia.""You are suppose to be an orphan.""Well, I found out that I got parents." She shrugged."Why do I have a feeling that you have known about this for a long time but you chose to keep it away from me?" He said, "Prove me wrong please."

Daniel was alive! Red couldn't believe it as she sat next to the bed staring at him. He smiled at her with his eyes beaming and she reached out a finger tracing the seam of his lips."You are alive." It came out as a whisper, her eyes widening in excitement, "Oh my God Daniel, you are alive!" She got over her excitement and pulled him into a bone crushing hug."Easy." He gasped, "I just got out of surgery.""I am sorry." She pulled back and rested her head on his shoulder, "I am just so happy that you are alive." And with that she broke down into tears crying her heart out."Don't cry babe." He pulled her closer stroking her hair, "I am here now."Red couldn't stop crying. She had spent days hoping and praying for Daniel to live. She had seen him in the ICU with different tubes sticking out of his body. She had stood behind the glass looking through at him oblivious to what was happening around her as her eyes were

Lorenzo took long calm strides bringing him closer to them. He gazed at them with his glaring good eye, "What is wrong Grace?" He taunted, "You look pale, have you see a ghost?" He smirked. "No..." She tried to be calm, "I am just wondering why you are one eyed?" "Daniel did that to him." Hart said to her, "Instead of dying, he ended up one eyed." "Shut up Hart!" Lorenzo yelled in a fit of rage, "Keep blabbing and I will be sure to make your death slow and painful." "You are not killing my husband, you bastard!" Mrs Hart spat, "I wouldn't let you!" "I was a fool to let him live the first time but I also made sure to make his life hell." He laughed, "But now, I will be damned if I let him walk out of here alive. So, which of you shall I begin with?" He asked, "You?" He pointed the gun at Hart, "Or you?" The gun was moved to his wife, "Oh! I know! Let's play a game of shoot and dodge." "Leave Grace out of this, it's me you want." Hart pl
