Meanwhile, in the hearts of lands, Lucifer was a wreck; it has been series of days of suffering and torture by Dave and his minions who derive pleasure in seeing him in pains.Tonight, they had surprisingly not arrived he wondered if they had forgotten he was here but remembered that Dave's thought of revenge would not allow him forget.Suddenly, he heard a squeak by the door and Lucifer tried to squint his eyes to adjust to the darkness but it was in vain."Who is there" He asked as the noise continued. He felt the door opened and he heard footsteps. His pulse began to increase as the fear of a possible murderer, hoping to end becloud his sense of reasoning."Please whoever you are, I beg you show yourself" He begged."You don't need to know my identity, all I need you to do right now is get away from here at once. I need you to run and don't look back" He suddenly felt the ropes in his hands untied and the urge to run, suddenly took over him and he acted on instinct.Lucifer instan
Jeffery had arrived at the office, hoping to see his manager in regards to the article he had discussed with him.Entering into the hall, there was commotion amongst the staffs who were laying out the complaint that they hadn't been paid off their monthly wages in a while, Mr. Ali the manager was trying to calm the situation down."No, we can't take this anymore. We also have families to feed, bills to pay" One staff said."It's either we are paid today or we stop working for your company" These amongst the numerous complaint was all Jeffery heard.He was sad seeing his fellow journalist lay out their heart before the manager. He had also not been paid and regardless of the situation, he was still committed to the job."Fellow Journalists, can I have your attention please"Jeffery said, coming to stand right at their front. He commanded respect amongst the journalist and so, everywhere went calm."I understand how we feel. I have not been paid as well, but we must understand that Mr. A
Ominicient P.O.VViola on the other hand was staying at the boys quaters, when she heard the sound of someone knocking at the gate.She was curious as to why someone would be knocking at such ungodly hour. At first, her thoughts were; Micheal probably went to have a night out and decided to return home.On arriving at the gate, she pulled the door opened and came face to face, with the least person she had expected to see."Lucifer?" She asked, staring in shock at him."It's me babe" Lucifer said smiling at his girlfriend. He couldn't deny the fact that he had missed her. He also noticed that she had lost weight and it got him worried."I can't believe you are alive" She said, engulfing him in a bear hug and inhaling his scent."I barely escaped from Dave's trap and there are many reasons as to believe that he might becoming after me" "Come on in" She said, stepping aside for him and locking the door afterwards. She helped him to her room and stripped him off his dirty clothes and
Sofia was at home with Dave, planning on their next line of action. Apparently, Sofia was still pissed over the fact that Carl wasn't six feet deep at the moment."Have you been able to have access to his schedule and when he could possibly be working" Sofia asked as she sipped in a glass of Vodka."I have the boys working on it" Dave replied. "But there is a problem, with the boys..." Dave added."What happened?" Sofia asked, shooting him an interesting look."They all seemed to not be trust worthy" Dave had seen instance where he had asked them to do a thing and they some how hesitated before doing it."We will fix them up. In the mean time, I need you to get the job done. Carl must not see the broad day light tomorrow. I would have hired Zeus, my favourite hitman but it turns out that Zeus is also not in the country at the moment" Dave nodded his head in understanding.Meanwhile, a maid had been eavesdropping on their conversation and was rather surprised to know that Sofia intend
"You still haven't told me your motive of coming over to the Bureau Mr. Jeffery" The head of the Bureau, Anderson asserted."I am here because, I know you very well" Anderson chuckled at rhe foolish reply he had gotten from Jeffery."Everyone knows that I am the head of the Bureau services, here in Carlifornia City, so what are you talking about?" Anderson asked."There is something you hiding, something you and I know that if the public finds out, you would be roasted by the unending rage of the people""Young Man, clearly your don't have anything to do in my office. I will want you to excuse me because I am busy" Anderson was fed up already by the man's antic."Do you know Mr. Russo?" Anderson was thrown off balance with the question. He hadn't seen that question coming and kept mute for a second."Oh! You do know Mr. Russo. It is written all over your face. There is no way you can deny it my dear" "And what do you care if I know him or not?" Anderson asked, covering up the obvious
Tina was on her way to the media house, when she came face to face with men all dressed up in black mustang. She knew this was not going to end well, she had taken Lucifer and Micheal along. Carl had informed the duo that they would be working for Tina, as she needed to be security conscious."Listen ma'am, I need you to stay back at the other car, we can handle them" Lucifer said in assurance."But it is risky out there" Tina said, considering the lives of her two escort, who will probably die in the hands of the outnumbered men."We were born to serve and protect. It is our duty to serve you and at the same time protect you" Micheal admitted.Tina finally agreed with them and Lucifer opened her door, shielding her from the rounds of bullets that was raining already."We need to clear out these bastards" Lucifer shouted to Michael, who began his own shooting. He was shooting with so much tenacity, while Lucifer aided Tina to the other car. Once Tina was inside the car and was safe
CIRO P.O.VThe weather was never friendly in Carlifornia and it had me all feeling under the weather. Returning from the meeting with the Russos has never been hectic than today. While in the meeting, my phone kept on buzzing and it all had one caller, Elena. Upon arrival at the apartment, I noticed the silence that graced the whole environment, leaving me to wonder what in the world was going on. Stepping out of the car, I checked the gate to see that it was completely opened. The boys hadn’t even made any attempt in locking the gates. From afar, I noticed a figure laying on the floor and I quickly rushed over to realize that it was one of the boys. Somebody has certainly made their trade mark over to this place. His blood kept spilling out unconsciously. Quickly, I moved inside the apartment to see more dead bodies everywhere and there was still no sign of Elena.“Elena! I yelled, hoping she would casually come down the stairs, like she usually does.” There was no sign of anyone a
Carl P.O.VThe night was cold and while everyone was busy camping themselves in the room, there is only one place I could easily be; the bar. It has been close to three months since I last tasted alcohol and I needed to get myself I place to have a feel of what it takes like once more.When I entered into the bar, all eyes were on me. This was a usual phenomenon over the past weeks and it got me questioning why people couldn't mind their business in the world we live in today."Welcome to the bar sir, what drink can we offer you?" The waiter asked, cleaning his glass cups. One peculiar thing about waiters here at the bar,is their hospitality towards everyone, just like this one is hospitable as well."A bottle of whiskey would do " I said, handing over a dollar note to the waiter. While I looked around the environment, my gaze came staring at a particular beautiful lady. Although she was masked, her countenance clearly showed that she wanted me to go over to her side."Here you go sir
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
