Ray Blackwood, her husband, sat across from her, flipping through pages of a financial report with little concern for the turmoil within his family.“This floral arrangement isn’t what I requested,” Karen said, gesturing at a sample bouquet. “The roses are far too large. Catherine’s wedding deserves perfection, not this... mediocrity.”The wedding planner, a wiry man with frazzled nerves, nodded hastily. “Yes of course, Mrs. Blackwood.

In her small but comfortable home, Sophia cradled Zira, her newborn daughter, who had finally fallen asleep. The soft rhythm of Zira’s breathing brought Sophia a fragile sense of peace, but it didn’t last long.She sat on the edge of the bed, her back against the couch, staring out of the window. The curtains fluttered slightly as a breeze pushed through the cracks. Grace had offered to stay, but Sophia insisted she needed some time alone to adjust. The truth was, she didn’t want anyone else to get hurt. Her instinct told her trouble wasn’t far behind.The world outside had changed since Zira’s arrival. Sophia could feel it. For weeks, she had been hiding, avoiding even a whisper of the Blackwoods. She knew they were still searching for her, though for what purpose, she couldn’t say. Did they want to sil

Escape

Chapter 15: Escape The night felt endless for Sophia as she sat in the corner of her apartment, cradling Zira. The baby who was still fast asleep, her tiny chest rising and falling with steady breaths. Sophia couldn’t stop replaying the attack in her mind, the masked intruder, the struggle, the blood, the body in her living room. She had acted on instinct, but now she was left with the horrifying aftermath, she killed a person.Her hands were still shaking as she checked her phone again. No missed calls, no messages. She was alone, but for how long? The body in her living room was a ticking clock, a silent threat reminding her that she had no time to waste.Sophia’s mother, Grace, had called earlier in the day, she offering to visit, ever since she moved a few blocks away to give Sophia space and privacy,. Sophia regretted brushing her off now. She could have used someone; anyone to be with her, to remind her she wasn’t completely alone in this fight.She whispered softly to Zira, “W

Digging Deep

Chapter 16: Digging DeepThe room was lit dimly, a single bulb swinging gently above Alex Montgomery’s head as he stared at the large map spread across the table. Red pins marked various locations across the city and beyond. His team moved around him like ghosts, silent and efficient, knowing better than to disturb him while he worked.Sophia had slipped through his fingers, and that wasn’t something Alex could tolerate. His jaw tightened as he lit a cigar, taking a slow drag before exhaling.“We’re expanding the search,” Alex said, his voice low but firm. “Every bus station, every train stop, I want them combed. Sources are she has a child, we need to figure out, if the child is hers, then that’s our leverage.”One of his men stepped forward hesitantly. “Sir, what if she’s already gone too far? There’s only so much ground we can cover without”“Without what?” Alex interrupted, his gaze freezing the man in place.“Without drawing attention,” the man finished, his voice faltering.Alex

Outsmarting The Devil

Chapter 17: Outsmarting The Devil Sophia paced back and forth in her mother’s small living room, her mind a storm of fear, after her initial escape she has realized that the child was not safe with her and decided to take her to her mother. Grace sat on the couch, her hands clasped tightly, watching her daughter with a mixture of concern and quiet understanding. Zira was nestled in her grandmother’s arms, sleeping softly, blissfully unaware of the chaos swirling around her.“You’re really doing this,” Grace said softly, her voice trembling.Sophia paused, her gaze darting to her mother. “I have to, they keep following me, if I stay, I’m putting Zira at risk and you too.”Grace was speechless for a minute, she looked down at her granddaughter. “She’s just a baby, Sophia. She needs her mother.”“And I need her to live,” Sophia countered, her voice breaking. She knelt before her mother, taking her hands. “Please, Mom. I’m trusting you with her. Rico already set up an account for her, it

Shadows in the Dark

Chapter 18: Shadows in the DarkSophia leaned back in her seat, her hands trembling as the train took off along the tracks. Her cheap, oversized hoodie hid her face, and the fake glasses balanced on her nose added an extra layer to her disguise. She kept her head down holding tightly the worn out backpack that carried everything she had left, some cash, a burner phone, and a new identity.Her new passport bore the name “Eva Grant.” It felt strange, almost foreign, but it was the only alternative.She glanced through the window at the passing scenery, her reflection faint against the glass. The weight of leaving Zira behind on her mind but she pushed the ache down. She had made her choice. It was the only way to keep her daughter safe, “safety over feelings” she mutteredA man two rows down shifted in his seat, his eyes darting frequently to her direction. Sophia’s pulse was building up. Was he following her? She couldn’t be sure.“Calm down,” she whispered under her breath, forcing he

Deadly Moves

Chapter 19: Deadly MovesSophia sat at the edge of the bed in yet another run down motel, holding her burner phone like it was her lifeline. She had moved twice since the train ride, each time more convinced she was being followed. The last bus stop had nearly sent her into a panic attack, when a man in a leather jacket stood too close, pretending to check his phone, She didn’t wait to find out if it was a coincidence.Now, in the dim light of the motel room, she tried to focus. The fake ID was still intact, but her nerves weren’t. She couldn’t shake the feeling that someone was watching and following her.Her phone buzzed, and she flinched. It was a text from the contact who had set up her new identity:“No signs of a trail so far. Lay low, will update.”Sophia exhaled and forced herself to believe it. She had to, for Zira’s sake. But just as she set the phone down, a car engine rumbled outside, too close, too slow. She peeked through the curtains and saw a black SUV parked near the

Hidden Moves

Chapter 20: Hidden MovesMelissa sat in her hideout; she has been there for two weeks, her fingers traced the edges of a photograph, it was a picture from her last trip, one of the few things she could remember before all the present chaos, But the constant death threats had worn her out, and she knew it was time to vanish, at least for a while.
