LUCAS'S P.O.V"Okay thank you very much" The head of the police department dropped his telephone and sighed, looking up to stare at me, with the same obvious disappointing face he had earlier on. He was a bulky man with a built body. The only problem with this man was the fact that he had a mustache, making him look really awkward."Am sorry Detective Lucas, there is no sign or report of what you are looking for" He finally had the voice to say. I stared at him for a moment, wondering what sort of things I could do to him if I had much power in my hands. This bloody man had me waiting for almost an hour and after making a basic call, tell me this? Internally, I began to count my breathing and eventually released it to cool my nerves."However, if there is anyone who can help you with Ciro's whereabouts, is perhaps his worst and archenemy" Finally, something to spice up my day. I pulled my hat down and sat back to the chair, giving him my full attention."Who is he? Where does he stay?
39.Elena P.O.V"I should have known this was why you wanted to be left alone" Erica stated as Ciro grabbed yet another bite of the apple. I had rushed to get fresh fruits from the fridge and was surprised to see Erica schooling Ciro, despite how big he was."Don't ever do this again. If Elena hadn't Informed me about this, I wouldn't have known something of such nature is happening to you. Are you trying to get yourself killed?" Ciro for the first time looked up at me and stopped chewing on the apple."You shouldn't have allowed her into the room, my demons are only meant for you and the gang to see, not her" Slightly, I felt hurt by the statement. However, I still believed he had his reasons for the statement."I know and I am sorry for that. Eat your fruit and rest, Elena and I would be heading out for now" He hadn't taken his eyes off me after he made that statement. Once Erica tried to pull me alongside her, he smiled a faint smile, seemingly trying to assure me that all was goin
Lucas P.O.VDifferent calls kept on coming in as I kept on deciphering where Ciro could had taken Elena to. It was too surprising to see that after a week of her kidnap, the security personnels, who had been everywhere couldn't get to know where her exact location was. It was as though Ciro had made Elena vanish from the face of the earth. However, I knew time would tell about the entire situation going on at the moment. Suddenly, I felt the cold wind of the evening hitting my body. How I wasn't able to close the window, all the while remained a serious mystery to me. While trying to close the window however, I noticed a stranger figure. It was odd especially for the fact that it was miles away from my window.On a closer look, I noticed the man was with a sniper in his hands and Instinctively I ducked, causing the incoming bullet move away. He tried it yet again and I kept on moving out of the way for the said bullet, till I was able to grip my gun. Having counted five, I boldly sto
Third P.O.V“I cannot just stand and watch all the things I have labored for go to waste, never! During the exchange of fires, I got hit by one of their bullet. It was only a miracle that it didn’t hit my heart area” Ciro stated.“You are risking a lot of things Ciro and one of them is your life” Elena complained as she help the man stand up to his feet“How did you dressed your self from the wounds” Elena asked.“There have been nights where I have been injured badly more than this and I treated myself without anyone knowing; not even the boys” Ciro stated.Elena's eye was drawn to the scars that spread across his back and she touched them. Ciro was smart enough to have tattooed all of them and ensure that no one saw through them but Elena seemed to have seen them.“I got them all when I was young but that will be another story for another day” Ciro didn’t want her questioning him about the tattoo.“Are the boys aware of this?” Elena asked as she watch him make cereal himself and sur
Lucas P.O.V"You all had only one job and that was to make sure that the entire place was well secured and right now, there of the prisoners are dead..." These were the words o heard the moment I stepped into the General Anton's office. He looked extremely pissed judging from his facials and I felt a little pity for the young ones at the place at the moment."We are sorry sir, we didn't know anyone would enter the prison and do such a thing" Prison? Did that guy just made mention of the prison. It may seem as though someone had killed prisoners."Get out of my office and wait for your punishment" General Anton, once again ordered and the two men instantly left the office, leaving the general and myself in one place."What brings you here detective Lucas" He said in a much calmer tone, having gone to take his seat."While I was making researches in my office yesterday, someone had the guts to try to kill me. I was hoping you would look into it yourself" He raised his head up in disbeli
"What a hell of a roll coater day for me" He said, holding up his temple. Elena on the other hand, stood up and kisses him in the fore head, before leaving for a room. A gesture that Ciro hadn't thought would ever happen.Just before Elena could get to her room, she felt someone standing behind her and when she turned around, she noticed Insigne standing with his glasses on."You know something Elena, I may have erased the doubt I had about you, when we figured out that Marco was an insider giving information to the police. But with what I saw today at the HILTOP hotel, I may just have my doubts back" "I don't know what you are talking about" Elena indicated, feigning innocence."The footage showed that you were standing at a static point in the restroom and by my logical sense of reasoning, I believe an average person would do what they came to the restroom for and then eventually head out, but you just stood there. Were you tampering with the footages?" Inisgne asked."All that you
Elena P.O.VStepping into the main building of the prisoners headquarters, there was only one thought I had in mind; finding a way to get Ciro out of there. Love they say could make anyone go at any length to make sacrifices, and sacrifices was what I was willing to do at this point for Ciro. I couldn't bare seeing him in prison, knowing that there has been a difference between this moment and the last time. Everyone, who saw me while heading towards Anton's office all had a look of curiosity in their face. The look which indicated whether or not I would remain the same after being in the loins of Ciro. Obviously, their question was valid as it turned out that I could never be the same again from that kidnap.Standing at the door to Anton's room, I took in a deep breath and prayed to whatever deity existed that my request be granted. "Come in" I heard his voice and for some moment, I was startled however I still kept my cool and made my way into the office. Upon seeing my face, Anto
Anton P.O.VThe city's biggest restaurant has had a very huge upgrade and I could tell by the number of customers they were amassing alright before my very eyes. 'PAPA'S HOME' as it is usually called wasn't this big, it used to be a small scale eatery which only supplied junk food to kids, till a new owner took over. I was glad over the fact that one of my colleague had taken over this eatery."Do you generally take your time in having to loose focus or is this a habit?" A feminine voice pulled me back to consciousness. Upon looking up, I smiled at the young beautiful lady right infront of me."Miss Bella, quite a great honour meeting you ma'am" She didn't say a thing, but took her seat gracefully. Bella was one of the few criminal lawyers I admired. She had great work ethics and at the same time, was undoubtedly beautiful. Aside all this attributes, she was also very disciplined."When I received your text message, I was in a meeting and for the first time, I have to say it's a surpr
Ominicient P.O.V There was no idea coming forth and so, she alluded his change in mood to his constant mood swings, which Elena had already gotten used to. She may not like Carl or find him remotely alluring, but it didn't change the fact that her relevancy and the life of her son Kastos, lay before his feet. Sometimes, Elena was cautious not to piss him off, knowing the extent Carl can go in proving a point that he is above everybody. Suddenly, she thought of something and immediately turn to stare at the child once again and that was when she realized what he had actually seen. Elena had doubts to her thoughts but the striking resemblance was too obvious to be ignored by any same person. Could it be? She thought to herself. There was no way he was behind this because he wouldn't be begging to have her back. Knowing that he could easily have sex with her in the club. Her thoughts also went back to Romeo; he was the only person that could make out Fred's face. She will be needing
Ominicient P.O.VIt had been days since Ciro met Elena at the school library and he wondered if she had successfully enquired from her parents, the origin of the scar on her arm. Eating pancakes which had been prepared by Sofia, he felt his phone buzzed and picked up almost immediately."Good day boss" the deep voice of Lucifer spoke through the other end."Yea""We have bad news" Ciro stiffened for a while; could there have been another problem at his warehouse? He wondered to himself."What is it?""Dave is dead!" He began choking on the water he was drinking to calm his nerves. Sofia ram from the kitchen to the dining table to help him get through the process."What did you say?" Ciro asked in disbelief."I regret to say that Dave has passed on""What happened to him? Did he got shot by anyone?" Ciro asked while Sofia watched her husband carefully."No sir, it is suicide" "Suicide? Dave doesn't appear to be one to commit suicide" He couldn't imagine his long time friend having to
Dear ViolaThank you for all the pain you have cost me, I thought we could go through this life together and live as one but it turns out, you have already made your choice. I don't have anything to live for Viola, you are all I ever had and it will remain that way but I guess, loving people brings out their your weakness. Anyways, I am writing this message because after this, I would be gone forever, I would no longer be in your live again. You can have Lucifer to yourself and I do hope he cares for you like you pointed out. Till we meet by the other side.Dave. "Shit" Viola sprang up to her feet, puffing out a smoke and throwing the remaining tray of cigarettes on the floor"What is happened?" Lucifer asked confused at her sudden reaction."We need to go now! Dave might have fucked himself up" Lucifer eyes widened in shock. He stood up to his feet, dusting off the dusts off his trousers and throwing away his own cigarettes and followed Viola as the
Ominicient P.O.VOnce Elena finished listening to the history revolving round her cut wrist, she was speechless. She could believe she had been part of a gang since a very tender age. "And few years later, the leader of the death squad Carlos, died and now the new leader Tevez has been on the hunt to search for you" "So the death squad's name was changed to the Skull gang?" She asked looking up to her father. Herman had the same look of disbelief laced on his face. His wife had never informed him of the entire story revolving the cut wrist and now he is getting to know, he felt pissed."I am sorry I never told you darling, I couldn't bring myself to telling you that our daught was a godmother in one of he notorious gang" Elena watched as tears rolled down on her mom's cheek. She struggled to stand up and go meet her mother."I understand mother,I truly do" Elena was confused herself, she might have claimed she understood, but in the real sense, it didn't make sense to her."And now,
Evening came and Elena was on her way to her parents home. It was an hour drive from Carl's home to her parents home. When she arrived, she noticed the scenery of the entire house had changed. The presence of flowers were visible and Elena could not think of any other person who had beautified the house with flower than her mom.When her mother opened up the door, she was shocked to see Elena was with a baby."Why didn't you tell me" Her mom asked feeling hurt."Alot of things happening in my life mom, it didn't occured to me that I needed to inform you about this" Elena pointed out."Come in, your father has been waiting for you" Her mom paved way for her and the escort Carl had assigned to her.When Elena noticed her father's reaction, she simply felt emotional; it had been truly long she saw her old man. He had grown white hairs across the layers of his hair and Elena could notice the wrinkles on his face."Father" She said going down to hug him."You are with baby?" Of course thos
Ominicient P.O.VIt was the second day of Romeo having to stay at Doris apartment and she had to admit, camping Romeo wasn't a bad idea after all, it only showed her how much she missed having to talk to someone."Have you ever thought of entering a relationship before?" Romeo was startled by her question; it was the first time Doris would be the one asking the questions."Uhmm... Yes I guess?" He said absentmindedly as he dealt with the spaghetti sauce that was prepared by Doris'"So you' ve had relationships before?" Romeo chuckled; his past life was a thing he had always hoped will never come out for discussion as he hated everything that had to do with it."I had this girl I dated years ago, I loved her so much that I could do anything for her and I mean it literally" He watched as Doris listened attentively."So what happened to you two?" "Well she broke up with me on the ground of not satisfying her sexually" Romeo didn't know why he was even telling her the story but it felt g
Ominicient P.O.VIt was past ten at night when a call woke Carl up from sleep; apparently he hadn't been having enough sleep and it irked him that someone had to wake him up from his beauty sleep."Yeah, who is this" Carl asked after yawning"Boss, Romeo has escaped!" The moment Carl heard that, he became wild awake."What are you talking about!" "We came back to base and discovered he is gone" Carl was shocked; how on earth had he escaped? He wondered to himself."Okay then, listen real quick, i need you to get all the men to search around the entire arena, we need to get to the buttom of this immediately" He couldn't allow Romeo escape, he needed him to know the location of the file."Yes boss" "And don't forget to take him by force, if need be" At this stage, if it was force that was needed, it would be applied."I will do as you have instructed" Carl hanged up immediately, standing to his feet and putting on his pyjamas once more. He needed to smoke; he was never an addict of sm
Ominicient P.O.VRomeo couldn't make out the face of the man but he knew he had heard his voice before. "Apologies for the way my boys treated you earlier on, it's just that what they did is best for business" Romeo watched as the man puffed smokes into the air"Who are you?" He asked out of sheer curiosity"I am surprised that you can't recognize my face" The man suddenly stepped into the light and the moment Romeo saw him, he gasped; aside the fact that he was the same man who had dragged Elena out of the bar he worked, he had a somewhat similar face with Ciro."Do you remember me now?" Carl asked as he bent down to his level. "I know you do" He said patting his head."What do you want from me" Romeo asked as Carl stepped back a bit, taking out a match stick and lighting up his cigarette again."I see you are the type that likes 'straight to the business type of situation'" Carl said with a smile on his face. "Anyways, you happened to have something in your possession that belongs
Ominicient P.O.VOnce he was done packing his luggages, he head out of the room, towards the exit door where his car would be waiting. As he turned towards the last hall before the exit door, he came face to face with Lemar Shrevolsky and his men."Leaving so early" Lemar said as his men aimed their gun at Carl who had no where to run to."You didn't even say good bye" Lemar approached him slowly, he still had a cigarette in his mouth."Nothing would be my greatest achievement at the moment than seeing an elite go down today" For the first time, Carl was scared; he had never been in a situation where he would be utterly defenseless."Oh look, the leader of the elite family is shaking like a wet chicken" He mocked Carl."Shut the fuck up" Carl remarked trying to compose himself; he was certain that his father would be turning in the grave knowing that his son was showing fear to a rival group."Talk all you want Carlson but today, you will die" Carl laughed immediately although he was
