Gabriel finished up his work at the camp and decided to reward himself with a nice cold beer at the pub. He was looking forward to sitting alone for a bit while he waited for Amelia to return from town. He had a full progress report to give her about the electricity station and he knew she’d be happy to hear it.But when he walked into the pub, he found a drunken Alfred slunked over at the bar. Gabriel had to make a choice: ignore Alfred and have a nice, quiet drink (ONE drink) alone, or join him and likely get soused out of his mind. It wasn’t much of a choice. Gabriel made a beeline for Alfred, plunking himself down on the bar stool beside him. “I must say,” Gabriel teased, “this is the first time I’ve seen you alone in this bar. Usually, you’re surrounded by beautiful women, flirting and drinking away the night. Or the afternoon.” Gabriel got the bartender's attention and held up two fingers, motioning to Alfred’s drink on the counter. The bartender smiled a

“Maybe this isn’t the best time,” Alfred whispered as they walked through the lobby. “Let’s just go back to the bar and have another round?” But Gabriel shook his head. “Don’t worry. I won’t cause a scene with Jonathan. I’m on my best behavior, remember? For Amelia?” Alfred nodded, but he took his friend’s word at face value. Outside, Jonathan was busy at work on the promotion of the resort and their new celebrity building program which he cleverly named: Star Shine. A stack of papers sat before him on a desk he’d set up and he was rifling through them. They were submissions from young, talented people, all applying to be part of the program. He’d created a media campaign to attract the best and brightest undiscovered talent. They’d all registered on the website, filled out the questionnaire, and then submitted a video audition of their talent. He was overjoyed at the response! More than 200 people had submitted their application. Most of th

Jonathan couldn’t hide the surprise on his face. Mercy? Of all people. What was she doing here? Truth be told, he was happy to see her though. There was something about her presence that he always found comforting, like an old childhood toy.She stood in front of him awkwardly clutching her violin.“Ummm, excuse me?” a girl called from the wings of the stage. “But, like, I was next.” The girl gave Mercy the evil eye.“Yes, yes. In a minute,” Jonathan said, waving off the girl. She crossed her arms over her chest in a humph.“What are you doing here?” Jonathan asked.“I told you. I came to audition. This program – it sounds…exciting.”Mercy’s voice was high and tight, the way it always sounded when she was lying. She was hiding something, and Jonathan knew it.“Mercy,” he said softly. “Is everything okay? Back home I mean?”Mercy cast her eyes down to the floor and shook her head. “I just…I can’t stop thinking about him. Locked up in that cage. The black bracelet. He kept it all those

“Amaya?” Amelia asked, surprised. “Yes, Amaya,” Olivia confirmed. “Who the hell is Amaya?” Alfred asked, sensing there was some drama afoot. “A bitch who’s trying to get Amelia fired,” Olivia snapped. “And she’s on her way here? Right now?” Alfred asked. “YES!” Olivia said. “Oh my,” Alfred said, raising his hand to his mouth. There was definitely some drama coming, Alfred could feel it in his bones. “Then cheers! To the bitch Amaya,” Alfred said, excitedly lifting his glass. “No Alfred,” Olivia snapped, pressing down his arms. “We don’t cheers Amaya. She’s a total nightmare!” “Why is she coming here?” Amelia asked, the thoughts swirling around in her mind. “Who knows,” Olivia sighed, “but I’m sure she has something planned.” “Is this the same person who tried to cut off your supply chain?” Gabriel asked. Amelia nodded. “She wants me gone. She wants to me to fail

“Are you kidding me?” Alfred burst out. “Mickey Dean? Is here? Now?” Alfred was a little star struck. her party isn’t for a few days. What’s he doing here so early?” “It was part of the deal. He wanted to come early and ‘rest’. I’m sure that's the secret rock star code for ‘do drugs’ and party. But hey, he’s here right? I’m paying him a fortune, and we’ll have to hide him from Amelia, but I made it happen.”“So he’s going to play at Amelia’s party? Really? Gabriel, that’s so cool. Well done. She’ll LOVE that,” Alfred said, patting Gabriel on the back.“I have to go get him from the limo and sneak him up to his room. We can’t let Amelia know he’s here.” Alfred nodded and made a motion of zipping his lips shut. He followed Gabriel, shaking his head. Then he couldn’t hide his excitement any longer. He squealed and jumped up and down. “I can’t believe it! I’m going to meet Mickey Dean!” Gabriel just sighed and rolled his eyes. Outside, a long, s
