Brandon was called to the station early in the morning. When he got the call he was worried that maybe one of his staff members had reported him for what happened. But he was Brandon Roberts, CEO of the biggest company in the country and he was going to take care of the problem.
He had people who could make anything go away, he need not to worry about such minor things. Brandon had his breakfast alone thinking about his men who have not reported back to him in hours.
The matter about the police was going to be taken care of anyway so he did not worry about that. But the matter his men were dealing with was of importance and was going to make Brandon millions.
He needed that to be resolved and the Naga leader back in his lab and even more of his kind if possible. He got out of the house and his driver and guards were already waiting for him.
He settled into the backseat of the car then instructed. “To the police station.” The driver only nodded
In the evening of that every same day. Nazima was preparing to meet Caleb when Zane came to her with a worried look on his face. Zane was not one to wear such a look for nothing and when Nazima saw it, she knew that something was seriously wrong.She dropped what she was doing and walked closer to him. “What is the matter?” a lot of things were in her mind at that time. She thought of the humans, Caleb, and Victoria.“Our scouts have just reported another boat in the same area those ones were following us to. They are heading to our direction.” Zane informed. I did not know if the people on the boat were from the company or not.But who else would know where to look for them if not the company? Austin was probably dead, and his friends were dead too. Who else would come looking for them if not the company?“They don’t know where we are, and we don’t know if they are looking for us. Have the scouts continue to keep
Grenades were being thrown like hot stones, too hot for the men to keep in their hands for too long. Their actions were provocative and violent. Caleb and the warriors heard the explosions before they could even come to view of the boat.“Two of you with me, we will look for the divers and get rid of them. the rest will deal with the men on the ship.” Caleb gave orders to the warriors. Since the humans didn’t learn the first time, he was going to make sure to teach them a lesson they will never forget this time.They were stubborn creatures it seems and yet they were weak. Caleb admired their resilience but cursed it at the same time.He and the two warriors dived deep and searched for the divers. They saw the first one busy doing something on the rock. He was planting the explosives.“We must hurry, we don’t know how long it will take for each of those things to explode.” Caleb urged, he was not worried about their kind getting injured as he believed they were far enough.What he wa
Their eyes widened in shock, the explosion was loud and that could mean only one thing. The humans have found them. while the others were still in shock Nazima was already swimming out.“Nazima wait, Nazima!” Caleb called out but Nazima was already gone. Caleb tried to get up and follow but the healer pushed him back down. “Where are you going? You are already injured and lost a lot of blood. You will only be in the way out there and the queen can take care of herself if that is what you are worried about.”Caleb could not believe the audacity of his subordinate. How dare she tell him what to do? He was her general and he was the one giving orders not her!“Get out of my way Nadine, your queen is alone out there, and she needs me.” the woman looked at Caleb as if he had just lost his mind. What was he talking about anyway? The queen was more than capable of taking care of herself and everyone knew that.Caleb, knew that better than anyone, or was there a different reason for him to wa
With huge eyes and death right in front of them. the men regretted taking the job. If they knew things would turn out this way, then they would not have taken the job. This easy money was not so easy anymore. They were about to lose their lives for this.They did not even get a chance to spend the money. The lifeboats started lifting up the closer the wave got. They could see how powerful the wave was just by looking at how it lifted the ship that high.When it got to them the wave lifted them up as well and when they thought they could be saved if the wave continued this way until it got to shore. But that hope was soon crushed when the front part of the wave started folding.It was so fast that the one moment they were looking at it pushing them towards the shore and the next the lifeboats were going under the wave. There were no screams or anything like that as the wave got them under fast before they could even think about creaming.They are being span around by the wave under wat
Caleb watched Nazima leave then turned to glare at Nadine. “Do you see what you have done, are you happy now, huh?” Nadine did not know how to answer. She didn’t mean for this to happen.When she told on Caleb, she thought Nazima will only scold him and she would get to watch the show. But now the queen seemed to be angry, and she was not the only one. Her general, Caleb was angry too.“I am sorry general, I did not mean for this to happen, I only wanted you to look after yourself so that you can heal properly. I thought the queen would only ask you to stay put.”Caleb did not know what else to say, he was angry and wanted to go after Nazima, but he could not. She would think that he wanted to cause a feud between his people and hers.He didn’t know where that came from. “Since you caused this, I want you to go out there and get me the person who did this.” Instructed Caleb. Nadine’s face turned pale.She was not an investigator; she was only a healer and nothing more. How was she sup
“I thought I should come and check on how you are doing. But since you already have a visitor, I will come back another time.” Said Nazima standing by the door. Her eyes cold and distant.Caleb’s heart boomed in his chest as if he had been caught doing something wrong. “Nazima, please come in. Victoria here was just leaving.” Caleb glared at Victoria but she pretended not to see it.“You like acting strong even when you are not, you are injured Caleb and you need to be taken care of or the healing process will take longer.” Said Victoria then frowned when she saw Nadine behind Nazima.“Nadine, are you the healer in charge of taking care of the general?” she asked already walking towards the two. “Yes, I am. What is the matter?” asked Nadine. She knew how dramatic Victoria could be.“You are asking what is the matter when you felt your injured general unattended to go do the gods know what, what is wrong with you? I demand an explanation or leave and call Lucas to take your place inste
Caleb wanted to talk more with Nazima but she had already left and he was feeling sleepy. Nadine looked at her general differently now, the Caleb she knew would have killed Victoria the moment she started annoying him.She went closer to him and spoke. “The queen was not angry with you general, she told me she only said those things to get you to listen to me so that you may recover quickly.” Nadine wanted to put him at ease.Caleb looked at Nadine, he wanted to see if she was telling the truth and when he saw her soft eyes he knew she was telling the him the truth. “Thank you, Nadine.” Nadine nodded then went to sit not far from him as Celeb drifted off to sleep.Victoria swam aimlessly looking sad and depressed. She had no destination she was just getting as far away from Caleb as possible. On the way she met two warriors, a Mer woman Kendra and a male she did not care to know.Kandra got along well with Victoria even though they liked different things. When she saw Victoria like th
It has been a week since Victoria started going to the shore and keeping surveillance. Nothing has happened yet and no ships could be seen in the water since the last incident happen.Seeing there was no action on the human side, Victoria started asking around for information about the humans and why attacked. At first, she did not care about things like that as long as they did not affect her.The warriors and guards she asked told her the truth about was happening, about the company and what they did to the Naga leader. They were happy to provide her with the information since they thought she was telling the truth when she said it was time for her to be more involved in the politics as the daughter of the chief.The people believed her seeing how interested she was and asking about what was being done to prevent the humans from finding them. asking if it was safe for the people to keep staying there since the humans were after them.The people she asked did not leave anything out a
