ANA’S POV :-I was confused about what just happened or what Jordan meant by that. So, I decided to talk to him about it later. But for now, I have to talk to Mr Hance about the project first.“What is this Ana? You failed to submit your project again? I gave you two extra days to finish it, but you still failed to do it. How long will this go on for? Just because you live in foster care, do you expect everyone to have pity on you and pass you on tests? Those days are over now. You left me with no choice but to fail you this semester.”“Sir, please. Give me one more day. I will give you the papers by tomorrow. I promise. I just need one more day. Please, sir. I beg you.” He took a deep breath as he gave it another thought.,“Fine. I’ll give you another opportunity. I’m going to call your foster parents and let them know what you’re doing in college. And if they promise me that you’ll do better in the future, I will give you two more days to finish the project.” My eyes went wide the mo
ANA’S POV:- Leaving Theo in his crib, I went out with the three kids to face my punishment and as we were taught, we all came to stand in a row, straight and silent, waiting for the lesson. As always, Hector came out of their room with a cane in hand and swiped it once on a nearby wall for testing, making all of us flinch. Hector is a guy in her late forties, fat and disgusting. He works at a constriction site, and always reeks of alcohol. He has the heart of a monster that doesn’t feel pity for anyone. I don’t know how the child welfare services permit a man like him to foster. “Today we got a call from a teacher because apparently one of you is not doing your homework. And you know the rule. If you want to stay in this house you have to work, study and look after yourself or else... Ana, you know the drill. Get in place.” My body was quivering like I was freezing in fear. No matter who breaks the rule among us kids, I’ll always be the one to get punished because I’m the eldes
VINCENT’S POV :-“Boss. This is the guy who’s been leaking our transport information to the Dirigeants. He's in the cargo department and I doubt that he was the one responsible for the missing shipment last week. What should we do with him now?”Leaning back on the leather seat of my Rolls Royce, I opened the first two buttons of my shirt, revealing a little sight of my muscular chest. Looking at the picture of the traitor in the iPad my right-hand man Hugo presented, I let out a deep breath and closed my eyes to vision what punishment I could give him.“Bring him to the base and skin him. Hang that bastard upside down where everyone can see him bleed slowly to death. They need to witness the punishment for betraying me.”“Yes, boss.”It was a long day for me and being able to return home after a tough week, I just want to get in bed and sleep. So I didn't open my eyes and tried to take some rest when all of a sudden the car came to an abrupt stop with a loud screeching noise, making m
THAT SAME MORNING..ANA’S POV :-“Ana.. Ana. Wake up already. You’re getting late..”“Yes… I’m up. I’m up... What time is it?”Jumping up from my chair startled, I started looking around with my still sleepy eyes to understand what time of the day it was. Was it dawn or evening?“It’s 5.30 in the morning. You fell asleep while doing your homework again?” Looking at the scattered books and files on the table, I realized that I failed to finish my project again.“Shit! I’m so screwed today. Lyla, help me get everyone ready. I’ll finish the cleaning first.”Stuffing the books back in my bag, I rushed to clean the house before our foster parents woke up. They don’t like their apartment dirty. Once it was done, I went back to our room to make sure all three of the kids were getting ready for school and the little one was awake. After cleaning up the toddler, I took a quick bath and got ready for college before I went to make breakfast for them all.Carrying the the little one in one arm and
