A man was walking down the street, however, his movements were pretty suspicious because he kept looking over his shoulder as if he was trying to discern if he was being followed.

He continued his lookout; walking the streets in circles two times and after confirming that he wasn't being followed, branched off into an alleyway that led him into an uncompleted building.

This man was no other than Jeremy, the young man who had shown that video to Kenith earlier in the day. If one took a good look at him now, you would notice that he looked flushed and kept pacing up and down the building anxiously.

"Why isn't he coming?" He murmured, irritably. Jeremy had bloodshot eyes and he kept scratching his arms as if it was itching him.

"Please come," Jeremy was in the middle of a breakdown and his gaze roved over the place trying to confirm if he was indeed in the right place.

Almost immediately, a man stepped out of the shadows. This man was no other than Elijah who had been hiding and observi

    "Young miss,"Clara was interrupted from her work by one of the staff."What is it?" She asked, looking away from her laptop for a split second."Luther is here,""Luther is here?!" She shrieked, her eyes lit up like a kid on Christmas morning."Why are you telling me this now?!" Clara shrieked, jerking up from her bed immediately, and rushed to the mirror where she began to examine her appearance.The woman smiled at the Young Miss attitude yet didn't say anything.Clara began to run her hand through her hair, trying to smoothen it but it still wasn't enough for her. She turned to the staff at once, "Keep him company, I'll be down in a jiffy,"The staff didn't need to be told what to do because this wasn't the first time Clara was excited at Luther's visit. She simply bowed and left. "Gosh, there's no more time," Clara panicked as she rushed into the bathroom where she washed her face in the sink, then hurried back to her room.

    There wasn't a smile on Clara's face as she applied the last touch of lipstick to her already dark red lips. She had been having the best time of her life with Luther only for Marcel's people to come and disrupt it. Clara snorted, he even had the nerve to send her flowers. As if that would win her over to his side, she scoffed. All they told her was for her to get prepared because she was escorting Marcel to a funeral. Clara didn't know who died - although she wished it had been Marcel- she had a feeling that her father-in-law, Daniel, would be there. Marcel always comes looking for her because he needed her to deal with him. The man surprisingly likes her.Truthfully speaking, after her last encounter at his place, Clara was now scared of that man. No, she was scared of all of them. If Daniel had treated his late wife badly, who knows how Marcel would treat her? He even promised to give her a living hell at their last meeting. But then, Clara knew her case would be different.

    Mimi woke up with a wince, her neck, no, the whole of her body hurt like hell. Why does she feel like a truck hit her, then knock her aside to the concrete road before running her over once again? What the hell happened? As if she jinxed her luck, the memories of the day came back and her eyes widened at once. Arianna was taken by those bad guys? Oh no! Mimi tried standing up but the pain in her body couldn't even let her lift her head. What was going on?If only Mimi knew that out of resentment, because Marcel kept Victor from attending the funeral with him - which he was supposed to as his consigliere - Victor had presented Mimi on a platter of gold to Samson. But then Samson must have found Mimi unappealing because he only kicked and moved her body while sniffing. Unfortunately for Mimi, the rolling from side to side meant she bumped into things - and walls. So when Samson didn't "eat" Mimi, Victor had no choice but to take her away, else they become best of buddies and she st

    "Let me go!" Mimi screamed as that asshole called Victor threw her over his shoulder as if she weighed nothing and headed downstairs.An argument started between them the moment he suggested visiting her mother to show his appreciation for the food. But Mimi was strictly against it, why would she bring that thug into her home? Was she crazy? What if he decides to kill her parents to shut her mouth? Mimi suddenly became scared, she wasn't ready to lose her parents yet. Boohoo, why does she have to go through this? Life has been going well for her until now! Who jinxed her luck?!"Stop moving around so I don't trip and fall!" Victor chided her since he was wobbling down the stairs because she was thrashing about."That's the problem!" Mimi shouted back, "I hope you fall and break your neck and die!" She cursed him."Exactly!" Victor retorted, glaring at her, "Who do you think would first break his or her neck in this situation?" He told her.Mimi's brows furrowed in deep thought, "Me?"

    The ride to Mimi's place was awkwardly silent. After he was snubbed, Victor didn't bother to strike up a conversation with her anymore. He had his damn pride as well.Unlike him, Mimi's mind was all over the place. She couldn't let Victor meet her mother. She couldn't tell what he had in mind and that scared her most. If only there was a way to escape this. Looking outside the window, a plan suddenly came to Mimi's mind. What if she jumped out of the car? No! It was dangerous jumping out of a moving car. She could get injured and what if a car from behind crushes her to death. However, the road was surprisingly empty which meant there were few chances of getting killed by an oncoming car. So Mimi began to put her plan into action, her gaze moved to Victor who was busy watching something on his tablet. It was perfect, he was distracted! She slowly shifted on her seat, inching closer to the door. Then her fingers began to travel, climbing higher and higher until they reached the h

    "I'm home!" Was the first word Mimi muttered to her mother the instant the door was opened.Mimi noticed every single detail; the way her mother's gaze moved to rest on the figure beside her and when it widened in joy. Mimi didn't need to guess what she was thinking. The matchmaker side of her has been awoken. In full."And this is my boss," Mimi had no choice but to explain when her mother wouldn't stop gawking at him. He wasn't even that handsome.Mimi turned to Victor, "This is my mother, teacher, and mom, this is my teacher," She intentionally omitted his name. Mimi wanted this encounter to be as short and formal as possible. Neither does she want her mother to form any close ties with Victor. He's in the gang for christ's sake."Hi, Mimi's beautiful mother, I'm Victor," He said so smoothly while taking her mother's hand and pressed a kiss to it that made Mimi's jaw almost drop to the ground.No, no, no, her mother can't fall for his charms!"Oh, my," Her mother giggled, obvious

    The sound of a man moaning in pain was heard as he received punches after punches. This man was no other than Kenith who was getting a beating from Big Joe's soldiers per his instruction.The room was more of a prison although it was spacious and empty save the chair Kenith was sitting on while he was being tortured and the table a few distances from it. There were body bags packed at a corner and had dried blood stains on them - It was quite obvious that it had been used to transport some bodies. While on a rack on the corner of the wall hung devices of torture that hadn't been used on Kenith, yet.They finally stopped hitting Kenith who inhaled deeply as if trying to catch his breath. If one took a good look at Kenith, they wouldn't be able to recognize him anymore because his face was swollen and he had a black eye. His lips were split and blood trailed down his temple. In one word, Kenith didn't look too good; his appearance was miserable. One of the soldiers reached for the ta

She would not go scot-free for this.Of course, Kenith was very furious because his pride as a man was crushed during this incident. Not only did he fail to sleep with Arianna but he lost his position of power in the gang and respect.He didn't dare to think what his subordinates must be thinking of him. Who knows who took over his position? Now he wanted nothing but to hurt the bitch that put him in this predicament. Big Joe sighed heavily, "In the end, you're still trying to drive a wedge between Arianna and me," He looked at Kenith with an unsmiling face, "Do you like her that much?""What?" Kenith was surprised by that question. This was not the reaction he was expecting from Big Joe, by now he should be furious at the shocking discovery.

    "Good morning love," Arianna woke up to Marcel peppering butterfly kisses on her jaw and nuzzled her neck, deeply inhaling her scent as if she was a drug that he was addicted to. Well, that was not entirely wrong. He was fucking addicted to her. "Morning," Arianna croaked, sleepy-eyed, and turned her back to him. They had done a lot of bonking last night and she was sore and tired as hell. Not that the move deterred him because she could feel his hands caressing her naked body beneath the sheet, stirring up a fire that should be extinguished already. Unfortunately, her body was a greedy bitch and a sucker for pain. One would have thought that after giving birth to three children, their sex life would have dwindled, but the reverse was the case. This was the reason they had to get away from the children and the base. Sex with Marcel was always loud, dirty, and rompy and they didn't want the children walking into something inappropriate. Moreover, just because they had children, did

    Ten years later….. ___________"Mummy? Daddy?" Penelope walked into her parent's room only to realize that it was as dead as a graveyard. Her parents were nowhere to be seen and she went into a panic. Penelope was four years old and the third child to be born to Marcel and Arianna. It was obvious that the girl was conceived with love and named after Marcel's mother whom she bore a bit of resemblance as well. The young girl had Marcel's blonde hair and her late grandmother's blue eyes marking her different from her siblings who had the signature gray eyes of the Luciano family. With Penelope taking up the role of their last child - although that position was likely to change in the future - she was spoiled and treated like a princess and it was not surprising that she burst into tears when she was unable to find her parents. "Mummy," She climbed into the bed and began to cry at the top of her lungs knowing that somebody was going to find her anytime soon. Penelope was used to the a

    For someone mad at Marcel for taking Aricel out for a visit in the middle of the night, she ended up spending more time there instead. By the time they decided to go home, it was already three o'clock in the morning and even their resilient daughter couldn't fight nature anymore and had fallen asleep. It happened that Adele ended up revealing the news of her pregnancy publicly instead and that sparked off a celebration. There was a lot of drinking and eating in between light conversations that by the time they were done, Arianna was a hundred percent sure that she was drunk. Marcel was the daddy of the year because he refused the alcohol knowing that he would have to drive a drunk wife and sleepy daughter instead, even though Luka was available to take up the role of a designated driver. ραпdα---nᴏνa| сom And yes, it had taken Marcel quite some time to get used to the fact that his best soldier and friend - he would not admit it - did not betray him, rather he stepped out of line i

    He should have known. Marcel felt his phone ring earlier, but then, he had been so engulfed in the fun he was having with the children that he ignored it. Moreover, he had not expected Arianna home until the early hours of the morning, nor had it ever crossed his mind that she would ever come here. Even late at night, the children had a great burst of energy and didn't tire easily and who knew that the game would turn out to be more fun than he thought? Victor decided that they should play paintball and it was even stunning that he had the equipment in his booth as if he had seen this coming. Enlightening the kid on how to play the game was a bit taxing at first, but after about four trial games, they were good to go. The kids were smart and Marcel couldn't have been more proud of his daughter over the way she expertly dodged the Marker, paint-filled pellet. However, they were holding back on purpose because he, Elijah, and Victor were all expert shooters and this was supposed to

    "I feel sick," Adele moaned over the toilet seat. "Shhh, it's okay," Arianna muttered, rubbing her back, "You're going to be fine and we are going to take you home right now." "No, I'll be -" She was about to protest when another wave of nausea hit her and she was retching into the toilet once more. Good thing no other person was coming in to use the restroom since this wasn't exactly a pretty sight. Adele was kneeling over the toilet while Arianna was behind her keeping her hair from getting in the way. The toilet cubicle was opened since it wasn't spacious enough for the both of them. "Mimi, could you stop staring at that strip and get the car ready? '' Arianna chided her with a glower. This was not a joke. Mimi in question was leaning against the sink and staring at the pregnancy strip as if it was a national treasure. While Adele had not denied the allegation of sleeping with her "husband" she was positive that she wasn't pregnant. It was too early nor did she have plans of

    "Daddy! Daddy! carry me!" "Daddy! Me too!" "Daddy! Liam pinched me!" "Daddy! Look, I'm a dinosaur! Roar!!!"Such was the condition Marcel and Victor found Elijah in when they arrived at his place. The cousin had not come together, but somehow they met in the driveway and thus, came in at the same time only to see this disaster. "And I thought I had problems." Victor hinted at his son trying to wriggle out of his arms. "I second that," Marcel said, glancing down at his daughter Aricel who was trying to reach for her cousin Caleb, both of their hands touching but not exactly reaching. "No, Leo! Don't touch the vase!" Elijah was already reaching for the boy but the deed had already been done because the vase fell to the ground and shattered. At this point, Elijah stood helplessly staring at the twin who lifted his hand to his mouth and giggled shyly,"Daddy, sorry." "God, no," Elijah lifted his hand and rubbed his temple where he could feel a throbbing headache. He thought that h

    Adele was so embarrassed by her breakdown that she didn't dare to look any of them in the eyes and she was extra grateful when the food arrived. Now, she had a reason to not look up, burying her face in her food instead. As if they understood her, Arianna and Mimi did not bother her and let her be. Perhaps, this was the reason she preferred their company rather than being completely alone - aside from the fact that both of them were the only people relatively close to the word "friends" in her life. They respected each other's boundaries - most times, she thinks - and didn't push their buttons. Also, Adele felt better, lighter, like this huge load in her chest had been taken off. Who knew talking was therapeutic? "So…." Mimi started up another conversation, which wasn't surprising. She must hate the silence or something. "What's Marcel's plans towards Aricel?" The question was obviously directed at Arianna. "What do you mean by that?" Arianna looked down, absent-mindedly rolling

    Arianna, Mimi, and Adele finally decided on a simple restaurant that was just around the corner and didn't have to trek too far. Although the late-night air cleared their head just a little bit and in no time they were basking in the warmth the restaurant provided. Picking up the menu, they made their orders before relaxing for a conversation that wasn't going to end anytime soon. "So…" Mimi started, which honestly wasn't surprising. She was a natural at initiating conversations even with the most awkward company, "How is married life going for you?" The question was directed at Arianna and she blinked in surprise, pointing a hand to her chest, "You mean, me?" "Yes, you. Who else was I going to start with?" Mimi shrugged, looking between the both of them - she and Adele. Arianna said, "You practically know everything about me. I thought you were going to start with her, she's the most reclusive person in this group." Adele in question lifted the glass of water to her lips and to

    The slap sent the man reeling as he saw stars in his vision. Unlike Mimi who had been taken aback by his action that reacted instinctively, Arianna's slap was well planned hence the reason she put a lot of her strength into it; she intended to hurt him "Who are you calling a bitch, your mother?!" She scolded him, stepping in line beside Mimi with her head lifted high. How dare that piece of shit lay a hand on her girlfriend? "Y-you!" The man raged, now holding the cheek where Arianna slapped him, "The both of you are dead!" He threatened her. "You have quite the confidence." Arianna scoffed, folding her arms across her chest. And oh, she finally saw why the man was confident because he did not come alone and about three of his minions stepped out confidently from the crowd. Just one night Arianna decided to be away from the stress of motherhood, and violence calls instead. At this point, those dancing on the floor abruptly halted their having sensed something violent was about to
