Eryx gasped in shock as he watched Zephyr briskly walk out of the cell, looking so full of himself. Zephyr glared at him keenly as he walked past him, his eyes embedded with so much fury. He tried his beat to hold himself back because it would be stupid to start a fight with Eyrx in this place. He just got out of prison, and he wasn't going back in there. “How did you get out, huh? How? Don't ignore me!” Eryx yelled.But Zephyr ignored him as he walked out of prison. “You can't hurt me anyway. I'll make sure of that!” Eryx yelled at the top of his voice, helplessly watching Zephyr walk away. “Here, sign these documents,” Eryx said, passing some documents onto Zephyr. The board members had organised a meeting with the mayor and Zephyr in regards to signing the documents pertaining to the project. Even though Eryx wasn't happy to find himself working in the same room as Zephyr. But he had no choice. Suddenly, the door opened forcefully, and the police rushed in, armed to the t
Nova glared furiously at Zephyr, her fists clenched firmly as her nerves boiled with so much fury. Zephyr's eyes furrowed deeply as his eyes locked onto Nova. “You! “It was all you!” Nova yelled. “What are you saying? Get a hold of yourself, Nova,” Zephyr said firmly. “Stop talking like you don't know what I'm talking about. I heard the call you just made,” she replied. “Well, I had to do what was needed,” Zephyr said quietly, ignorant about her reaction. “I would deal with you if he gets out with a scratch,” Nova threatened. Nova was boiling with so much fury as she glared at Zephyr. Everything about him was irritating him, and she couldn't get over the thought of landing a good slap to his face. Nova quickly raised her hand to land a huge slap on her face, but Zephyr held her hand mid-air. He let out a soft sike in his face as he looked into her eyes, bearing a lot of pity on his expression as he glared at her. “What? Quit staring at me like that,” Nova grew angry as she g
Nova jerked up from the bed breathing heavily, and her heart beating like she just ran a marathon. “Easy ma'am. Just calm down, I'm going to get the doctor,” the nurse urged calmly. “Get me out of here!! Where am I!!” She yelled, her voice echoing through the hospital walls. The doctor quickly rushed in while the nurse was trying so hard to make Nova remain calm. “Hey, hey. I need you to be calm. You just had a little breakdown. You're fine. All I just need is for you to be calm,” the doctor urged, softly grabbing Nova's arm as he glared into her eyes. “I just want to leave here,” Nova demanded, her tone softer than before. “I know. I just need to check your vitals before you leave. To ensure that you don't collapse on your way out,” he replied. Nova remained calm, and the doctor took out his stethoscope, checking her heart sound and other vitals. “You're OK. You're free to leave,” a soft smile registered on his face. Nica ignored him and quickly rushed out from her ward, grab
As the days passed, news got out about Eryx and Nova's marriage that was coming up. Every ear heard, and every mouth spoke about their upcoming marriage. The city was fully heated up, and they all anticipated the union of the two parties. But following that news came another news. It is very demeaning and dangerous news. “Breakfast is served,” the maiden announced as she placed the plates on the dining table. Nova walked, drooling from the sweet savour of the meal that was exposed before her. “It smells so great. I bet it tastes just as it smells,” she said, grabbing her cutleries as she comfortably took her seat. “You're really going to eat without me,” Eryx walked into the dining room, cleaning his hair with a towel. “You're going to put your hair into the food,” Nova said. “Oh come on, my hair doesn't kill anyway,” Eryx chuckled, giving her a peck on her soft cheek. Nova giggled softly. Eryx took his seat as well, grabbing the remote to turn the television on. “Where are
The whole crowd of paparazzi was thrown into murmuring and shock. They couldn't believe what Eryx had just said. Following the evidence they had, they could attest to the fact that Eryx’ mother was denied the right to an attorney. But his expression was filled with grief, and Eryx was skilled at lying and pretence. “Excuse me, sir. I'm sure you know how sensitive what you just said is?” Joseph asked as his eyebrows furrowed deeply. It was obviously a thing of shock to hear that a mother would try to kill her own child. “Yes of course. I can't lie with such sensitive issues,” Eryx sniffled as tears rolled down his cheeks. Eryx was very good at faking his tears, and it was unfortunate that the masses were about to fall victim of his tricks. “I'm so sorry, sir. If you don't want to speak, it's fine. We can actually leave this for another day,” Joseph sympathised with him. Eryx was so good at faking his tears that he could fool anybody he wanted to. Unfortunately, the paparazzi ha
A few minutes ago, Nova had been on the ground, shocked her nerves that Eryx had pushed her. She just couldn't believe it. Few days after a proposal and this is what she gets for trying to help him out. Her face hardened as she remained on the ground, trying so hard to get over the anger that surged through her nerves. She felt utterly disrespected, and unsafe at the same time. She kept pondering on the scenerio, trying to think of what she had done wrong to deserve such humiliation. Eryx didn't even care if she was going to hit her head on table which stood right next to her. He was just bent on getting away ftom her at that moment. “Maybe Zephyr is right,” she muttered. The words Zephyr said to her began to replay in her head. She found herself thinking deeper into what Zephyr had told her about Eryx. The words of Zephyr to her after Eryx was arrested. “Eryx isn't to be trusted,” Zephyr's voice echoed. She quickly recalled to fact that she didn't answer him when he aske
Eryx stopped the car right at the bridge where it was announced that his mother had jumped off from. They quickly got out of the car, rushing towards the bridge as Eryx held onto Nova's hand. Murmuring, groaning and honking of car horns filled the air, creating an uneasy and noisy scenerio. Eryx and Nova couldn't find there way around, and traffic was beginning to build up at the scene. “Excuse me!! I need to get through!” Eryx telled, tryjng to create a passage way for himself. “Let's just go back,” Nova insisted. But Eryx wasn't ready to do so, he peristed and kept looking for a way to get to the rail of the bridge. Meanwhile, Zephyr stood at the rail of the bridge, glaring into the water, devastated and broken. He couldn't believe what had just happened. Tears rolled down his cheeks, flowing like a stream of water as his heart yearned to be relieved of such pain. It felt like his world was beginning to crumble upon him, and he couldn't help himself from drowning with it.
Zephyr's nerves boiled with so much fury as he glared at Eryx. It just seemed like the police were not there because everything within Zephyr just wanted to beat Eryx to a pulp. He was tired of having to sit down and watch Eryx get away with virtually everything. But judging from the scenerio, this wasn't a perfect time for that. Zephyr quickly freed himself from the grip of the police, adjusted his shirt properly, and walked out of the scene immediately. “Yeah, run away. That's all you always do,” Eryx yelled. But Zeohyr paid no attention to his yelling. Meanwhile, preparations to process a funeral for the late Mrs. Lockwood had already begun. Her corpse were taken to the mortuary, and everyone left the scene, retiring back to their daily activities. “What are you going to do? You need to go back and prepare for the funeral,” Nova wrapped her hand around Eryx’ arm, leaning softly against his shoulder. “Just go home. I'll take care of myself,” Eryx replied. “I can't leave yo
Love can be crazy, it could make good people turn into villains, villains into someone better. It causes changes that someone never thought of.But in Kevin's case love had hurt him so much. He didn't say a word to Willow who was panicking, more like he was immune to her cries and whatever he was saying.But all of these emotions couldn't be bottled up as he brought out a stick of ciggerate and puffed some smoke, the nicotine in it calmed his blood stream and somehow relieves his stress.He took a long drag from the cigarette, the end glowing bright Even in broad daylight. His hands trembled not from the nicotine, but from everything building inside him like a storm too big to hold.You started smoking again?. Willow asked with a scoff in her smeared face. You know it's not good for your mental health. She said to him genuinely.Amanda’s voice cut through the silence, sharp and incredulous. “You really think chain-smoking is going to fix what’s going on in your head?”WHAT MENTAL HEAL
It started after we had a fight, Kev. Alex was the person here for me and we fell In love. She said to him when deep down she knew it was a lie.She blinked more than usual, like she could blink away the sting behind her eyes, and every now and then, she’d look down at her hands, fidgeting.Why lie to him, Alex interrupted behind her. Kevin was his friend, yes. But that wasn't going to stop him from getting what he wanted, what he wanted wasn't Willow,but was the benefit that came with it The merger with one of the most popular tech companies in the world as well as multiple sponsorship and partnership that would help his company seer high and help build his name around the globe.Alex was a kind of person that only cared about wealth and luxuries, women were not part. All these he could get but only on one condition. To agree to marry the daughter of the willow family. He didn't even know to whom he was getting married at first.Until he met her, and she was willing as well. And she
Kevin had no idea how he got to the church within seconds of getting that information. His heart was beating fast, he couldn't hear or understand anything around him.All he saw was rage and jealousy. How could his woman come back and the first thing he hears about him is that she was getting married to a random dude.He immediately walked out of his car and moved briskly into the church not minding anyone or anything at all.But what he saw, or rather the person he saw next to Willow made his blood crawl. It was Alex, who was à friend to both him and zephyr. How is it possible that he could do this?Does anyone object to the union of these two beautiful couples?Kevin wondered if there was another meaning to the words “couple”. Or was this some form of welcoming or was it a prank. It must be right.So he thought but he hadn't realized yet that there was so much more to be uncovered.I object. His voice came out louder and stronger than expected. He wanted to understand what was going
Zephyr was literally sitting on the floor with a heavy heart and confused mind. This was just so sudden to him. The light at the top of the intensive care unit had gone off indicating that whatever intensive care was given to Nova was over.The door opened and Nova was wheeled in a stretcher by the nurses. Zephyr stood up almost as if he had been chased by a dog.“How is she?” he said as he rushed to Nova who looked so pale, her lips were lighter and her eyelids would flicker from time to time, however her beauty did not falter, she was still the most beautiful woman he had set his eyes on.“She is now stable”. You can stay by her side sir. The doctor said with politeness in his voice and character.After about thirty minutes and after Nova Nova had been moved from the intensive care unit to her personal ward she finally woke up and the first person she saw was zephyr.“Zephyr”, she whispered his name with a weak voice. Zephyr who was already lost in thoughts immediately pulled out o

“Don't you know how to do your damn work. Eryx yelled over the phone. You know how much this deal means to me and don”. He said, referring to an underground boss.“I….I am so sorry sir. I am going to fix this”. A timid voice behind the phone panicked.“You fucking do that. Or else your wretched mother won't make it to another day”. He threatened without mercy nor without a flinch in his face.As soon as he finished talking, he slammed the phone to the floor. “FUCK, FUCK”. he yelled out. This wasn't the plan. Why was the business having problems in his tenure? The only thing he did was gamble a little. How did it end up affecting him?

As Nova walked. She felt her legs in the air. It was as if she was not flying. Her little gasp could be heard by almost everybody that walked past her.“This isn't meant to be happening to me. I shouldn't have gotten my memory back now”. She said to herself as she finally stopped by the road side trying to catch her breath. Her brain replayed the memories of what had just happened.Somehow Nova found herself back where she came out from. Eryx mansion. A place she could never call home. Just as she was about to enter she heard hush voices and immediately she knew it belonged to Eryx as well as Jane.“Why would you do that? Do you want to jeopardize my fucking plans bitch”. She could feel the greed that followed his vulgar words.“I didn't do it on purpose Eryx, please try to understand that”….. she tried speaking up but he interrupted.“Shut that fucking mouth of yours”, Nova imagined his veins popping from the side of his neck. An expression she was quite used to.“I know you Jane. I
