"Sir, someone's here to see you, sir."

Huh? Jake could hear a voice and he woke up to find out he had dozed off on his office desk. He quickly hid the whisky he quickly picked up from the floor when he noticed his PA in the office.

His head buzzed and he hated the feeling. But what else could he do? Whenever Jake experienced overwhelming problems he would drink to soothe his heart. 

Today, after sending Donald to investigate who the Kingston Books account was awarded to, he had decided to buy some whisky himself and hid it in his jacket as he made his way to the office. 

Jake looked up and saw Donald standing next to Stacy Griffith. He yawned and sighed, then pointed to a seat for the gentleman.

Donald sat down

    Jake's face turned ugly immediately. His recent losses had enraged him. And hearing Dohana mockingly calling him, Mr CEO, coupled with her snickering smile- felt like a personal attack. "Please, don't. Don't call me that." Jake warned seriously. Jake composed himself, taking a few breaths and sighed. "We're struggling recently, haven't bagged much business lately." Dohana gave an awkward but sly smile. "I heard, you lost the Kingston Books account to Moonlight Advertising. What a shame." Jake was practicalling boiling with rage at this point, he began to wonder if he should continue with this date. "Dohana, are you gloating at my expense?

    What? Jake was bewildered, he became dizzy instantly. Watching all his ex's wildly. Some he could remember, some he couldn't but they looked familiar. 'Oh my god! What's going on here?' Jake subconsciously stood up, his mouth agape. More than twenty extremely beautiful women surrounded the table and flirtatiously smiled at Jake. Lucia Theron began to clap her hands unhurriedly. "Mr Jake freaking Larson." As Lucia spoke, one of the women lay her hand on Jake's shoulder, forcing him back down to his seat. "Or should I say, Mr Jake 'the womaniser' Larson?" Jake grimaced, quickly realising this was surely the handy work of Luc

Jake had a smile on his face as he watched. 'hahaha! Let's see how you make payment now.' The waiter swiped back the card and with a gloomy face, said, "madam, it decli-" "Impossible!" Dohana spoke, raising her voice. Jake's smile widened. 'Tried to embarrass me, we shall see.' A million things went through Dohana's mind. She hadn't even noticed Jake's amusement.

    The following morning, Dohana rushed to work early. It was Friday, the day of the Moonlight Advertising launch. Truely a big day for the company and the launch had raised the interest of all of LA's most influential figures. The Nova was fully booked. At this second, Dohana entered the Moonlight building and headed into the offices. Getting off the lift, Dohana saw that even the corridor was littered with people. Just as she attempted to walk pass, two figures blocked her path with brightened faces. "Dohana!" The two spoke. "Mariot!" Dohana exclaimed. "Daisy!" "What are you guys doing here?" Before Dohana could ask, the two had hugged her tightly.

Now she was taking it all in, feeding from the crowd and taking her place in the modelling world. 'I never thought, that starting a company to rival Jake would ultimately feel this good. The whole world is now watching and this great company has become an overwhelming force. All I have to do is walk and put a stamp to it, then it will be all over for Jake.' Dohana smiled as she walked, suddenly, her high-heels slipped and Dohana tried to balance but she failed, falling down to her butt. The whole building was in an uproar. "What?" "Wha

So this Donald pretended to be looking for a job yet he was working for Dohana all this time? No wonder I kept losing staff and partnerships. This bitch must bow down to me sooner or later.'"You really think you have won don't you?" Jake sneered.Dohana grinned, "perhaps, not right away.

Jake understood quickly, Donovan hadn't told the boys about what happened that faithful night when he and Lacey bumped into Don and Dohana on a date. "Donovan, I'm sorry. I didn't know how to tell you this but Lacey rocked up at my office the other day. She said you guys weren't seeing each other at all. And she asked to be my date on the weekend away to Hawaii." "What!" "That bitch!" "Is she crazy?" The boys lamented, appalled at what they were just hearing. "So, knowing that she was your woman, I didn't agree at the time, n

    The bullet flew through the air. While Aishantha looked on at the gun quivering helplessly, a diving figure leaped across her and fell to the ground.What?Everyone's head was buzzing, did the Queen Mother really pull the trigger?Aishantha subconsciously probed her body for gunshot wounds. And when she found none, she instantly glanced at the figure lying on the floor. Her mind was boggled.It was Jake. Blood was stained all over his suit and his white t-shirt was red."No, Jake!" Princess Dohana cried, dropping to her knees and puzzled, not knowing how to help Jake at all. "Why did you do that, why?"With his eyes closed as if he was dead, Jake didn't respond.Everyone else stood there, stunned."Oh, you want to be a hero, right?" The Queen Mother said, chuckling before raising the gun towards Aishantha again. Prince Dominic quickly stepped over and blocked Aishantha completely."You...you have dissapointed me Dominic. Did you forget the plan so suddenly? You were supposed to marry

    Feeling the cold blade on his neck, Prince Dominic was furious. How could he have let his guard down. As the renown Prince of Paris, and having trained on the art of combat since he was a child, how could he accept defeat by an amateur. 'Obviously this kid is no experienced fighter, and to be cheated and be outdone by him is just embarrassing. But I'm a Prince, I can't lose.' "I said, say your last words pal!" Jake yelled. Prince Dominic thought of countermeasures quickly. "Who said I've lost," after he spoke, the Prince used his left hand to squeeze Jake's injured shoulder. The Prince had thought about it. He'd hurt Jake where he previously stabbed him and then use this momentum to turn the tables. After using all his strength to squeeze and jab the injured shoulder, Jake merely glanced at his hand. Seeing Jake's smirk, Prince Dominic was astonished. Why is he not hurting? Seeing his puzzled face, Jake leaned back and used his right hand to reveal the wounded area. What?

    Pin drop silence followed as all eyes gathered around the man who had just crashed into the wedding hall. Everyone couldn't help but gasp at the sight and the aura that pervaded him. He wore a stylish black suit, with a red tie; the black shades he had on gave him a mysterious demeaner. With his hands jammed into his side pockets, looking extremely relaxed, he smiled as he glanced at the audience. The Queen Mother was staring at him in total bewilderment. She couldn't figure it out. She had done her utmost best to ensure he would never be able to enter the palace, let alone the wedding venue. How did he pass through the thousands of royal soldiers defending the royal palace?"Jake!"Princess Dohana couldn't believe her eyes. She shuddered at the site of him, staggering back.'Finally, my Prince charming didn't let me down. He came to save me. He is really here. Am I dreaming? That means I don't have to marry Dominic, I don't.'As a thousand thoughts ran through Princess Dohana's mind

    The atmosphere became tense in a second. Erick Vohn drew out his sword, showing a sneer as he directed his sword towards the Resistance army."How dare you try to deceive us? Do you know who I am?"Mr Heart returned a mocking smirk, "You're the general of a mutilated army.""Shut up! the general shouted, "soldiers, attack!"The royal soldiers roared and charged together simultaneously."Resistance, buckle up and get ready to defend, walls of steel!" As soon as the words resonated through the air, the Resistance formed a straight wall. One soldier had his knee to the ground, the other stood behind him blocking the abdomen, their shields both blocking the opponent. Behind them, the soldiers pushed them hard to resist.When the oncoming traffic of royal soldiers clashed against the wall, they bounced off and stabilised their feet before rushing back. After several attempts, the soldiers began to wonder what was up about the wall? How could their opponents be so strong. Seeing this scen

    As the sun rose in the east, Princess Dohana opened her eyes and she couldn't help sighing with emotions. Today was her wedding day but she was sad. She had always imagined her wedding day would be the happiest day of her life. But instead, it promised to become a dreadful day.Soon Princess Dohana picked herself up and prepared to head over to the bathroom to wash up but to her surprise, a man was sitting on a chair looking at her attentively."Prince Dominic!"The Prince smiled and said, "you look even more beautiful when you're sleeping so peacefully."Feeling intruded, Princess Dohana stepped back instinctively and said, "what are you doing here? Don't you know the groom is not supposed to see the bride on the morning of the wedding?"The smile on the Prince's face was quickly replaced by a lazy sneer. "Oh please, cut the crap. It's not like you really want to get married to me."Princess Dohana looked down as she saw his gloomy face.Seeing her so docile, Prince Dominic stood up

    The atmosphere in the hall changed, one could cut the air between the Queen Mother and Princess Dohana with a blunt knife. The silence that reigned, if you dropped a pin, it could be heard clearly. Between the royal family, it was Dorah who recovered first. Her sharp eyes stared down the Princess and she couldn't hide her disgust. "You...Dohana, how could you be this stupid? What marriage are you talking about?" Sirah also added, furrowing her brows, "do you mean you're married officially? Like legally?" The Queen Mother cackled out of nowhere. The voice was so loud that it echoed throughout the hall as everyone looked at each other in dismay. "Child, don't tell me you got drunk and had an accidental wedding." The Queen Mother continued to laugh. "No. Your majesty, it was a sober day when I got married." "Shut up!" Dorah scolded angrily. 'How shameless can this woman be?' "You shut up, okay!" Dohana retorted, pointing her fore-finger across the lot. "I don't need any of your

    At the royal palace, the pre-wedding festivities were still thriving at midnight. Earlier that evening, the Queen Mother had even set up a celebration banquet for the wedding. Everyone had been drinking all night and this time, most of them were drunk. The Prince of Paris, Dominic, kept the crowd alive with his humourous stories. The crowd kept bellowing with laughter. "Imagine, without a penny to his name. A nobody still wants to marry the Princess?" A roar of laughter followed. Raising his voice, Prince Dominic continued. "Huh, trying to wrestle the Prince for his bride? That's like a lightweight trying to wrestle a heavyweight. He has his eyes on the throne? We might as well hand over the kingdom to a peasant." More cachination ensued. Suddenly, the door to the Banquet hall banged open and general Bengy Dowson strode in with a panic. The sudden sound attracted everyone in the hall as they turned to stare. Seeing the serious face of the general, the hall went so silent you cou

    All the soldiers glared at the man in disbelief. How could they believe that they had travelled all the way to the Andorrian boarder for nothing. If this was possible, it would mean that they had been tricked all the way here and would not be able to return to El-Tarter on time. Crazy..."What nonsense are you talking about?" Said Bengy Dowson, feeling embarrassed and disgruntled about the possibility of this truth.Mr Goodson took a few deep breaths, walking over with a dertemined look on his face. "General, it's all true. When I returned back to El-Tarter last night, I followed those farmers back to their camp, only to find that they are part of the resistance. They pretended to be returning to the mountains just to avoid your trouble."Hearing this, Mr Dowson turned around to look at the windy mountains. They suddenly felt so abondoned and disolate."General, don't waste your time exploring the mountains. We don't have enough time, let's rush back immediately to catch them unaware

    A few hours later, on the outskirts of the El-Tarter, a thousand royal soldiers marched toward the east. The general Bengy Dowson led the men, riding alongside him was none either than Mr Goodson. As the men passed by a narrow path, they saw a few men farming near the river. The general raised his hand up and everyone stopped."Quickly, ask those men if they saw the bandits pass by here lately."A soldier ran down quickly and soon returned."My lord, the farmers say thousands of men passed by here some eight hours ago. They recognised some of them as the mountain bandits."Hearing this, both Bengy and Mr Goodson nodded, but the latter was skeptical. Just as Mr Dowson was about to signal for them to continue, Mr Goodson spoke."Wait, Mr Dowson, don't you think there's something strange going on here?" Mr Goodson said while staring at the farmers."What do you mean," Bengy glared at him suspiciously."Look at it like this," Mr Goodson said, pointing to the farmers. "Why does it seem li
