Do you still love me?
Anna“The Vial?” I repeated, shocked.“Yes, the vial. It’s…”“My father’s well-kept secret,” I interjected, my mind trailing off.That just means Logan was not kidding. He was working with Edgar. This meant he was also right about something else, the Circle was larger than any of us could have imagined.“How do you know about the vial?” Jack’s words echoed over the phone, breaking me out of my thoughts.“It contains the codes to my father’s wealth and fortune. That’s what Edgar has been looking for all this time, and now he finally has it.” I said, my voice trailing off.“How do you know any of this, Anna?” Jack asked, but just then I heard footsteps echo on the hardwood floor behind me,“Anna do you want to…” Mark said approaching me with a towel wrapped around his waist, and suddenly stopped, his face reflecting confusion.“Is that Mark?” Jack said as I took the phone away from my ear. However, his voice was still echoing from the speaker as I turned around.“Is that Jack?” Mark ask
Read moreSecond Heartbreak
Anna“Do you still love me?” Marks’ words replayed in my head as a tear slid down my face.I stood quietly for some moment, my words stuck in my throat. Answering this should have been easy. I did love him, but I could not ignore the fact that his life was going to be in danger just for having me as a girlfriend. Deep down I wanted him gone, it was the only way I could think of to keep him safe. Seeing how hesitant I was to answer the question, Mark smiled painfully, shaking his head, “You can’t say it, can you? You don’t love me anymore.” He uttered and without waiting for my response, turned and walked back into the bedroom. My mind was racing as he walked back into the room. A part of me wanted to keep him close and have a beautiful relationship with him, but another part of me realized the dangers of doing that. It was a real catch-22 moment and as I was still deliberating, Mark suddenly showed up, dressed in a navy blue suit and a stern look on his face.“What are you doing?” I
Read moreThe Second Family
Anna It happened just as I predicted, Mark had left. I knew telling him about my children was a bad idea, but I felt like I had no other choice. Part of me hoped that he would stay after I told him about them. That he wouldn’t resent me. What was I thinking? Mark was a young, handsome CEO billionaire of the Greyson family. Of course, he would not want to have to deal with not just one, but three children. How stupid could I have been to think, he’d want us? Watching him walk out that door was one of the most painful things I’d ever felt, and for a few minutes, I could not even get myself up from the floor. I sobbed bitterly, knowing there was no other person to blame but myself. Right now, I didn’t know where our relationship stood, but to be quite honest, I didn’t know if I wanted him back. It was better this way, and safer too. But still, I couldn’t ignore the pain I felt. Suddenly, my phone rang, snapping me out of my trance. My heart leaped instantly, thinking that it was M

Anna “What?!” Jack’s voice echoed his surprise, confirming what I already suspected. He was the only person who really knew much about my past, and yet he didn’t know about Chloe. This could only mean one thing. She was lying. The only question now, was why would she be? And how did she get those pictures and know so much about the Circle? “What exactly did she say?” Jack asked shortly after. “Not much, she only told me that Demarcus already had a family before he moved to Delroy. Because of his influence and popularity, he couldn’t risk having his image damaged by revealing he already had another family. That is his way, this was how he could protect her and her mom, which is why she didn’t say anything, but seeing that I was in danger from the Circle, she had to reveal herself to me.” Jack remained quiet for a while, deep in thought over what I had said. “It isn’t true Jack, right? Demarcus didn’t have another family.” I asked. Jack hesitated for a while, and then replied, “I
Read moreThe Safehouse encounter
Jack From having to meet Blake at Brigdon and now Mark’s return to the city. I didn’t know which was most surprising. When we caught Anna’s ex, I didn’t think that this whole thing would lead to Mark returning. I didn’t know he was back in Brigdon, but I feared he might reveal the fact that I didn’t call him. Also, his being back was going to be a problem. Confessing about my feelings to Anna was a mistake I shouldn’t have made. Things were now awkward between us, and with Mark returning, I knew it would just further the distance between us. I knew I had promised Sheila that I would leave the country when this business with The Circle had ended, but Edgar had robbed us of The Vial, and now also had her blood. This thing was far from over and as long as he had the things he needed to access Demarcus’ fortune, Anna was never going to be safe. I couldn’t leave now, I needed to look after Anna. At least that’s what I kept telling myself as an excuse not to leave. I knew it was dangerous
Read moreThe Note
Jack Anna walked towards a small hill, sneaking behind as if she was following something. She strode towards a small rock partition under the hill and scanned her eyes around, looking for anything that looked like a button, and finally she snapped her fingers and a wall opened, “I knew it. I saw her go in through here.” Anna said and turned towards me with a proud smile. “Let’s go. I think this is the road to the safe house.” I was surprised, watching her as she walked inside. Without wasting any time, I brought out my gun. I knew anything could go wrong at any moment and I had to be prepared. I kept a good distance from Anna as we walked into the narrow lobby entrance, I brought out my gun and loaded some bullets, shielded by the darkness. Anna shifted her gaze to me and continued down the corridor, then she took a left turn, walking stealthily, beckoning on me to join her quickly. I wondered what she was following and hasten ended up, rejoining her at the left corner. “What a

Anna“How do I know you’re not just making this up so we don’t think that you might be one of the moles you just talked about?” I asked, as the thought suddenly occurred in my mind.Chloe looked astonished and simply offered me a smile, before turning away. She shifted her gaze to Jack who shot his away, unable to look at her directly.“She’s a tough one, isn’t she?” She asked with a wry smile.“I’m afraid Anna doesn’t trust anyone easily, Ms. Chloe, so if you want her to trust you, you’re going to have to earn that somehow,” Jack said, still looking away. I squinted my eyes, looking suspiciously in his direction. Why was he being so courtly towards this woman?“Ms. Chloe?” I repeated, staring at Jack, who still looked away. Chloe smirked embarrassingly and then turned towards me, “So you don’t trust people easily. That’s why you are finding it hard to believe I’m truly your sister.”I arched my brow, giving her a look that exclaimed “And so?” At this time, Chloe nodded and smiled
Read moreThe Artwork
Anna“Not to doubt you, but what exactly have we gotten?” Jack asked, sounding perplexed. “The first clue. Whatever it is that Demarcus was hiding. The first clue is in this map and I’ve just found it.” I said, my excitement returning.“I think there’s something we are supposed to look for. It has to do with that artwork. If we can just find out what it is, I’m sure it’ll lead us to something that will punch us in the right direction.”“The artwork,” Chloe said and snapped her fingers as if a piece of the clue had just unraveled in her mind.“It’s not an artwork, it’s a door.” She said and quickly pulled out her phone, searching through her library collection, and pulled up a picture replica of the same artwork we were staring at right now.In the picture, the frames of the artwork were holding a handle, however looking at this picture now, there was none.“So it’s a door,” I said shifting away from them.“But there’s no knob or key. How do we find those?” I asked, turning away from
Read moreWhat will we do about Zach?
Anna I paced back and forth frantically, wondering why Zach’s name was on this list. As much as I wanted to believe it was an error, this list had been well scrutinized and a lot of process had gone into it. As such, Zach Greyson being on this list couldn’t have been a mistake, but I couldn’t make sense of why he was there in the first place. The Greysons were a wealthy and influential family. Certainly, they didn’t need the power of the Circle, or to associate with it. So why did Zach choose to? The answer kept eluding me. However, deep in my heart, I could not help but wonder if Mark knew anything about him. “This can’t be true,” I said, shaking my head in disbelief. “I’m afraid it is.” Jack’s voice echoed softly into my ears, and I suddenly turned to him in shock, “What are you talking about?” I asked, unable to believe him. Jack heaved a sigh and started approaching me with slow measured steps. He stopped just in front of me, his face filled with sympathy as if he was scar
Read moreWe have something they don’t
Anna “What are we going to do about Zach?” Chloe’s voice resounded in my head, leaving me just as puzzled as I was before. The truth was up until now, I wasn’t completely sure there was still anything to do and in truth, there really was not much left that we could do. Edgar had everything: my blood, the vial, support from the major influences in the Circle. Some which we did not even know. He may have just won this fight. However, finding this safe house had fueled me with a new kind of courage and hope. I was now certain that with Demarcus’ fortune and collection, I could fight for what was truly mine - my seat at the head of the Circle. With this list in my hand, fishing out Edgar’s support had been made easy. Still Zach was an unaccounted complication. I didn’t know what to do about him yet, but if a chance to convince him presented himself and he still chose to side with Edgar, I was not going to spare him just because he was Mark’s brother. There was a lot more at stake th
