The Winner Of The Game

Ciara and Samuel waited in his car, parked somewhere that was discreet enough while they waited.Ciara could not shake off her anxiety and nervousness, and she just kept feeling like bringing Samuel into this was a huge mistake. Her hands shook, and no matter how well she tried to clasp them together to prevent her anxiety from being obvious, she just could not do it.Samuel noticed how uneasy Ciara was. Ever since they arrived, she had been restless and constantly glancing out of the window. She had barely even spared him a glance, and they hadn’t said a word to each other.“Are you nervous?” Samuel broke the ice and asked. This was a part of Ciara Summers that he was getting to see for the first time, and it made Samuel realize that maybe his mother hadn’t judged Ciara wrongly.He began to feel that his mother probably knew more than he would possibly ever know; could be from their time together in prison, and that danger just loomed ahead for Ciara. Samuel had known real danger. He

Broken

During the drive back to the main house, Ciara remained stoic and quiet. She was stone-cold, and she kept her eyes glued to the road. She knew that Samuel glanced at her occasionally, but she could care less. A million and one thought were running through Ciara’s head.It was as though she was going in sane.Here was another opportunity to find out the truth, and again, it slipped through her fingers just like that, but this time around, Ciara had someone to blame; Samuel Fury, which was why she could not bear to look at him, because she was too pissed off to do so.If only he had just stuck to the bargain; she tells him why she needs the money and he gives it to her, but no, Samuel Fury, as always, had wanted to control everything and have the final say, and now, she had lost to Linda Luscious. Ciara would think about Linda Luscious’s involvement in all of these, but right now, her anger was steered towards Samuel and the fact that yet again, another opportunity has been lost on her.

Gone

Samuel dragged his feet downstairs at about 9:40pm. It was already dark outside, and he did not know that he had passed out for that long. After walking away from Ciara’s door because he could not stand the sound of her broken cries, Samuel went into the study, a place he would not find himself in on a normal day, and drowned himself in a hard drink. He needed to also feel numb, because the guilt of what he had said was tearing at his conscience, which was a surprise, because the last time Samuel checked, he did not give a damn about Ciara’s feelings.But then again, he had never seen her that hurt and broken, especially now that he had gotten a glimpse of what was happening with her. Ciara’s life was more chaotic than he had thought. At first, he had thought that she was just a girl in prison his mother wanted him to save, but ever since he got her out, Samuel had come to the realization that Ciara’s life was a web of secrets and danger. Samuel continued to take more hard drink, be

The Rat Chase

Samuel raced upstairs, refusing to believe Quinton’s words. Suggesting that Ciara was not in the entire building when she only went to her room in less than three minutes is absurb. Samuel heard the footsteps of Quinton as she followed him up the stairs, but he did not even bother to stop and ask her to get back to her duties.Samuel got to Ciara’s room, and the moment he stepped in, he knew that Quinton was right. Not that the room held much adornment, but Samuel just had this eerie feeling. He walked over to the wardrobe and looked, and Ciara’s backpack was gone.Samuel was dumbfounded. He was confused. He was perplexed.Knowing that Quinton followed him upstairs, which Samuel was now grateful for, he turned and truly, Quinton stood by the door, agitated and worried. “When was the last time you saw her?” Samuel asked Quinton. He knew it was a silly question, considering the fact that the same Quinton had mentioned to him a few minutes ago that Ciara hadn’t come down for dinner.“Wh

Two Loses

“Linda’s house?” Samuel asked Kingston, hoping that he heard wrongly.“Yes, boss,” Kingston answered with confidence.“You mean Colt and Ruby Luscious?” Samuel asked again. He knew he was probably sounding foolish, but he could not believe his ears, so he had to ask multiple times, in different ways to ensure that Kingston knew exactly what he was talking about.What bloody business did Ciara have in the home of Luscious?The last time he had seen Ciara coming out of their home in a terrible state, Linda had stated that Ciara had attempted to steal from them, that Ciara was a common thief, and Samuel had believed completely, so why would Ciara have Kingston drive her all the way there if she truly was a thief.A lot of things were not adding up at all, and they were driving Samuel insane.“What did she go there for?” Samuel asked.“She did not say, boss. She only asked that I drive her there,” Kingston answered.Angrily, Samuel reached forth to Kingston and grabbed him by the neck, cau

Laid Down

Samuel raced back to the house after he was able to get himself up from the ground with Kingston running behind him like a wild beast. Fortunately for them, they had barely gone far, so the distance back to the house on foot was not a hassle. In the twinkle of an eye, Samuel and Kingston arrived at the house, both breathing and panting heavily.Quinton was in the living room, shaken and sobbing when Samuel entered alone.“What happened?” Samuel asked as he began to dial the doctor’s number. He hadn’t thought of contacting the doctor until he entered the main house.“I went into the room to ensure that the air conditioner was not too much for her like I usually did, and I checked on her, and that was when I realized that she had stopped breathing,” Quinton explained.“Are you sure?” Samuel asked and Quinton nodded.Just then, the doctor picked up.“Mr. Fury, is there a problem? You are calling really late. Is something wrong with Aunt Mary?” he asked over the phone.“Yes…yes, it seems

In The Lion's Den

Ciara arrived at the Luscious home and parked outside. Then she sat still in the car and waited. What was Ciara waiting for exactly, she could not tell.Her mind went back to the shock on Samuel Fury’s face when she had boycotted him and Kingston, entered his car and driven away. Ciara found herself satisfied with how she had played everything.Maybe if she had been this strategic and bold, she would have been able to figure out a lot of things about herself long before now. Instead, she had relied on fate to bring justice to her.Ciara snorted at the thought of that.Fate had never been kind to her. Fate had never played in her favor. Fate had never showed her exactly what she wanted. All that Ciara had gotten from life had been misfortune, woes, and tragedy, and she was sick of it. Ciara was sick of being treated like trash all the time and have words that broke her spirit thrown at her so casually.If she hadn’t relied on Samuel, she would have gotten to Rudge before Linda and she

Danger!

Ciara could not place where exactly she had heard the name Hayes before, but she had an unsettling feeling about it. Even though she struggled to recall where she had heard the name, she knew without a doubt that the name was associated with something terrible.Ciara just couldn’t remember immediately.She was still thinking about it, and the exact words of Linda to this Hayes guy when Linda stepped out of the bathroom, and they met each other, their gaze locked; Ciara, determined and Linda, shocked.But Linda recovered from the shock almost immediately. Ciara did not move an inch.“Ciara?” Linda asked, disbelief in her eyes.“Yes, it is me, Linda,” Ciara said, holding Linda’s gaze. “What are you doing here, you wretch?” Linda recovered from the shock and confusion of seeing Ciara standing in her room so late in the night. “And how did you get in?”“None of these questions are important, Linda. I have questions of my own to ask you, and you have no choice but to answer them,” Ciara s

Stuck All Round

Ciara ran like she had never done before, knowing that it was now or never. She could feel and hear the man chasing her.Ciara had caught sight of his face when he wanted to grab her, and oddly, even though it was dark, she knew that the face was familiar, and at the same time, it wasn’t one of the bodyguards in the Luscious home.So who was he?First, it was the mention of a name that brought shivers on Ciara, and now, a dangerously familiar face. As Ciara ran, she continued to ponder on it. She knew now that she was not as skilled at this as she had thought, because if she had been, Linda would not have been able to call someone on her while she stood right in front of her, threatening her. Ciara ran down the stairs, taking them four at a time. She could hardly believe that she possessed such strength and agility despite being pregnant, but Ciara hadn’t been this determined to escape danger like now. As Ciara dashed down the stairs, she heard the man also dash down the stairs. Fort

On The Run

Ciara froze when she heard what Quinton told her. The words were as cold as though they were coming from Samuel Fury himself.“He is very upset with you, and I will advise you stay away for now,” Quinton said. She talked in whispers, which made Ciara suspect that she was making the call secretly. Ciara opened her mouth to ask Quinton a question, but the line went dead. Ciara stayed there, parked by the side of the road, confused, alone in the dark, dazed. First of all, she could not get over the shock of Aunt Mary’s death. That was the only person that ever truly loved her and looked out for her after she lost her mother. And now, Aunt Mary had passed on and Ciara did not even get the chance to bid her farewell.Ciara knew that Samuel would be furious with her. He would blame her for his mother’s death. Heck, Ciara felt responsible for her death as well.Ciara wailed loudly, the sound of her bitter cry echoing in the dead of the night.It was all her fault. Samuel Fury had saved her
