Once wronged, twice punishment

It's dawn already and several hours have passed since the two brothers passed out, Ciara had no much time on her side and was less patient to wait for them to wake up. She asked Gerald for a pail of water as usual, but this time, she preferred it to be mixed with ice.Ferdinand and Brandon's morning started with a startled and shrill, both whimpering under their breathe and shivering due to the impact of the cold iced water on them. The two brothers were both angry for being treated as slaves and outcasts but they dare not complain since they were both under her mercy.“Haven't you had enough of what you want from us, Ciara?” Brandon managed to breathe out, of course, he was sure to avoid her gaze; having no much courage to meet with it. “You wanted the truth from us which we have given to you, can't you give us what we want in return?”“Which is…?” She asked him in reply to his question, her left brow raised in demand.“You let us go, Ciara!” He uttered almost immediately, his voice

Betrayal of trust

Brandon crashed his knees on the floor as soon as Ferdinand was dragged away, his strength failing him at the point when he needed it mostly. He was panting heavily as he struggled to catch and steady his breath.“You did well, uncle Brandon.” Ciara commended him with a small smile on her face. “I was thinking you would lose to uncle Ferdinand since he's much younger than you are, but he turns out to be weaker instead —I'm amazed at your prowess, uncle.”If Brandon had tried to be more attentive or observing, he would have noticed the sarcasm laced in her voice when she praised him, but Brandon, on the other hand, was feeling proud of himself and patiently waiting for his stomach to be filled up in no time.Brandon forced out an impressive smile, seeing this as an opportunity to seek Ciara's good side. “I always hit the gym when I was younger, I'm this good because I mostly get involved in fights and I defend my brothers too when they are being cross laid.” He uttered in response, sti

Broken trust

The fear in her uncle's eyes was palpable, and Ciara took a certain satisfaction in the fact that she was finally controlling the situation. The tables had turned, and now she was the one calling the shots. She was savoring every moment of it.“Your promises mean nothing to me, Uncle,” Ciara said, her voice as cold as ice. “All I care about is the fact that you've broken my trust and the trust of my father, who trusted you above all else. And now you're going to tell me where that information is, or you'll face the consequences. Do you understand?”Brandon's face was now a mask of terror, that's the least of all things that he'll give up. If any of them managed to survive her wrath, the information Sheila provided about the company would surely be used against her —why would he give up such?“I can't…" He said, his voice little more than a whisper. “Please, I beg you. I'll do anything you want, just please don't make me tell you.”“You have two choices.” Ciara said, her voice calm and

Second chances

“No!” Ciara told her almost immediately. “You aren't on a permanent leave, I'll just leave you to take a break until I'm able to sort everything out.”Sheila wasn't happy with the thought of taking a break from her work, but she was left with no choice to it. She made a grave mistake, and she couldn't deny it, if Brandon had taken a brutal step against the company with the information she foolishly offered him, then it's the end —and it'll all be on her.In as much as she wants to be selfish and keep her job and position in the company, Sheila could only hope Ciara's concluded decision was letting her go forever —she's only being considerate by letting her on a leave.“I really don't want to leave, ma'am, but it's only right that I pay for my mistakes.” She uttered in agreement. “I don't know how long this would last, I'll assure you that on any judgement you come up with later on, I'm ready to accept and trust your judgement with no two minds on it.”“I know, Sheila…" Ciara enunciate

Protect what's mine

As Ciara walked into the empty house, she noticed that Gerald was still at the same spot she had left him that morning, his usual Stoic demeanor replaced by a look of concern.“You're home early…" He said, his voice quiet but audible enough to Ciara's hearing, “Is everything okay?”Ciara paused, her brow furrowed. “I just needed to get out of the office.” She said, avoiding his gaze, and walked past him to take the only couch in the middle of the large room. “I needed a change of scenery.”Gerald didn't seem convinced, and he studied her closely. This wasn't the mood she had left with earlier that morning, in fact, she left full of life as if that were something vital that she had to do at work and was feeling enthusiastic about. But now, her face is only saying a different thing entirely.“You know you can talk to me, right?” he said, his tone gentler than usual. “Did something awful happen at work today? You don't look like the Ms. I have known for the past few years —your look is s

Men who cried

Ciara walked into the room, her heels clicking on the hardwood floor. The room was dimly lit, with only a single lamp casting a circle of light in the center of the room. She took a deep breath and tried to steady her nerves. She knew what she had to do.“Hello, uncles.” She said, her voice cold and level. “I'm glad you could both make it to this level, we have a lot to discuss, but it doesn't matter anymore —I'll make it a brief talk.”“What do you want from us?” Brandon asked, his voice trembling slightly, but Ferdinand remained silent, his eyes fixed on the floor. Ciara regarded them both with a steely gaze. “You had us suffered enough, what else do you want?”“I want you to pay for what you did.” She lilted, her voice hard as steel. “You both deserve to be punished for your crimes —if you are lucky, you will survive the process.”“You can't do this to us, Ciara!” Ferdinand protested, finally finding his voice. “We're family! We made a mistake, but you can't take the law into your

RIP to the dead

As Uncle Kent lay in his bed, staring at the ceiling, he heard a faint knock on the door. He sighed and rolled over, not feeling too well to answer the door, but the knocking continued with whosoever it was persistent, as it kept growing louder and more insistent.He finally decided to answer the door, even though his body ached with every movement —it wasn't even up to twelve hours since he was put away from the life monitor. When he opened the door, he saw a package on the doorstep. He frowned and looked around, but there was no one in sight, his face was squeezed into a displeased expression.He reached down and picked up the package and returned to his sickbed, turning it over in his hands. It was addressed to him, and it was sealed tight. Uncle Kent was puzzled and confused at the same time. Who would have sent him a package in the hospital? And why had they left it anonymously? He looked down at the package, considering whether to open it. He knew it could be dangerous, but his

Painful ordeal

“Wait… are you saying that uncle Ferdinand is the one who tried to have you killed?” Dwayne asked in a shaky voice, his eyes growing wide with disbelief. “That can't be true! He's a good man, I've known him for years, and he's always been kind and generous. This is all just a misunderstanding.”“Don't make excuses for him.” Ciara snapped, her tone sharp and full of anger. “I know what I saw, and I know what he did. He may have been kind and generous to you, but to me, he was nothing but a monster.”Suddenly, Dwayne's face shifted from shocked to furious. He stood up from his seat and glared hard at his sister. “You're lying! There's no way uncle would ever do such a thing to you, his niece. He's a good man, and would never harm anyone, let alone you!”“Oh, so you think I'm lying?” Ciara blurted out, raising an eyebrow. “Let me ask you something then. How well do you really know uncle Ferdinand? Do you know what he's capable of?”Dwayne hesitated for a moment, his mind racing as he tri

Confess to your sins

“Uncle Kent is dead.” Dwayne enounced in a low tone. “His wife informed me that he was confirmed death late yesterday, he died due to shock which triggered his sickness.”Ciara did not look bothered as she folded her arms across her chest, wearing a straight face. “I know, right?” She replied him dryly.Dwayne was surprised at his sister's response as he creased his brows. “You know?” He repeated her dry response. “How did you find out about it on your own, they haven't even told anyone about it yet.”“I was there when he gave up his breath yesterday's evening, I watched him die.” Her voice did not hold any emotion. “Just the two of us in the ward when he had the seizure —just uncle Kent and me.”Dwayne was even more surprised than he was a few seconds ago, he felt like his ears were deceiving him, or he was the one who got the message wrong. “He had a seizure before you? That's not even possible, aunt Amelia said he died because he was alone with no one to help him inject his inhaler

A new dawn

In a boardroom at the top of a towering skyscraper, Ciara sits at the edge of the table at the other end, a stack of papers in her hand. She looks around the table, her expression serious. Likewise, the executives that were around the long table, their faces were serious too.“I've called this board meeting to discuss a matter of great importance. I know that the company has been struggling recently, but I believe we can turn things around.” She stated gracefully, but she was slow with her words.“Recently, as you all are aware of, I'm now a shareholder in the Lerman's company and I own the highest percentage in it; the company itself made me the executive owner.” She said and paused, her voice sharp and professional as she stares at the executives present to see their reaction.The executives were wearing a knowing expression, already aware of what she was talking about; no one seemed surprised at her new feat, seeing this, she decided to go on with her speech again.She cleared her
