Badmus was already shaking at the side like a nervous kid who heard footsteps in his attempt to steal from the offering Box. His eyes burned with emotional cycles— jealousy tangling with anger and uneasiness.“You're talking like you're about to resign, Kane.” Richard sounded crestfallen. “You're my star. I can double your paycheck. Your service brings honor to my organization." Richard Globulex said with the desperation of a boss wanting to impress a good employee.Badmus was burning with anger as Richard was praising Kane. Someone he already fired!"So, please, accept the gift. I can get a better one if you think its not good enough.” Richard persisted, eager to please Kane.Kane gave in after much persuasion. “Oh, no Mr. Richard. That's not the issue. I just think someone like Mr. Badmus deserves the honour.” Kane said knowingly, his voice laced with sarcasm. A small smile spilled the corner of his lips.Richard simply glanced at Badmus without any word and let out a bitter chuc

Mr. Kenneth dropped the call. “Grandfather is aware of the break up between you and Henry. He called a meeting and we must not miss it.” He said, already standing up, adjusting his suit. “I smell trouble.” Cassandra stood up and grabbed her purse. “Don't worry, Dad. There'll be no trouble.” She said assuringly, but she knew deep down she knew that fire is about to burn on the mountain since it involves the Varnovas family. The Varnovas family had been supporting their family business since she was going to get married to Henry, but things went south at that last minute.Carl dressed in a plain deep ash shirt and black slacks and walked out of his rent. He walked to Mr. Bobby who was outside on the pavement, relaxing his back on a recliner, his radio broadcasting midday news.Carl walked to him. Mr. Bobby sat straighter when he saw him coming, his eyes brightening. The last encounter Carl had with Thompson Montclair, turning down a Mansion worth million grand and gifts had left him s
TEST OF POWER
The staff tensed, his hand shaking on the computer keys.“I..I don't know sir..I'm a new staff member." He stuttered, his voice trembling with fear.Gabriel scoffed, shaking his head in disappointment. “Take me to the manager's office." He said, his voice a low rumble.“Sir..sir, our manager is currently not in the office.” The staff responded, visibly shaken.Gabriel slammed his palm on the desk, his eyes burning with rage as the patience he had been maintaining snapped. The people around startled to shock.“Bunch of c*nt!!" He sneered and lifted his head, looking at the staff members one after the other, his lips curled in a wicked smirk. “So none of you know Kane Everest?! I'm going to rip out...”“Sir..sir...i know him. I know him.” A female staff stumbled out behind her desk, her eyes casting down fearfully, not daring to look the devil in the eye. “He got fired a few weeks ago. He's not working here anymore.” She answered sincerely, her voice shaking.Gabriel looked at the staf
KING AND CROWN
******Badmus was lost for words, completely caught up in the moment. Then suddenly, he found his voice."I'm unaware of this report." He started. " Mr. Kane here is the one in charge of the report analysis as the assistant manager, and he had been the one managing the company's affairs. I'm blind to the report." He spat venom with a faint wicked grin.Kane was surprised by the heavy accusations. The same man who fired him had just casted blames on him. How amusing and cruel.James's expression dropped, his eyes flashing with a mix of shock and confusion. He glanced at Kane who smiled at him faintly.Mr. Richard looked at Kane with wide eyes, his emotion conflicting between disappointment and disbelief. Kane was his star staff. Clients had always given positive remark about him. How could he have changed from being best to worse. Kane's surprising expression dissolved quickly to a firm and unreadable expression.James quickly cleared his throat. " You mean Mr. Kane here was the one i
DESSY
Badmus cornered Kane and grabbed his collars, shoving him against the wall.His eyes simmered with rage, saliva spraying from his lips. " You think you won, Huh?! You think you're some tough guy who can walk into the boardroom like you fucking own it. You're nothing but a shit, Kane!" Piece of garbage! This isn't over! You've bitten more than you can chew and you should expect tooth break." He hissed and shoved him, storming out in rage, his loafers jabbing the marble like knife.Kane smirked, unfazed. He casually smoothed his suit, brushing his hand over the fabric like he was scratching away Badmus's filth."This is getting interesting." He nodded with an amusing smile.Kane walked out of Imperial Bank to the Teller area, his phone pressed on his ear."I'm almost out." He informed James on the call as he walked across the hall.He saw Badmus standing in front of the counter speaking to a man in a grey suit, pointing finger in his direction. Kane didn't spare another glance as he mov
JUMBLE
"That's the problem with you, Kane. You think you matter, Huh? You're still a nobody. What's changed about you is absolutely suit. Rag to facade! Don't think you're glorious because you're shining now." He hissed, his voice laced with condescension. The Teller hall buzzed, patrons laughing their lungs out like it was all entertainment, phone hanging mid-air like weapons to spread claudron on the medias and drive fans.Kane didn't shout. He just stood with an eerie calmness, hands jammed in his pants pocket like a man holding down a gun.Vince's eyes carried annoyance that can breaks iron. "Securities!" He barked, his voice tearing across like thunder.Boots crunched the marble, the crowd parting like water as two Securities scrambled to the scene, Baton clutched for destruction."Search him!" Vince finger snapped at Kane. "You're all dead if you dare take a step." Kane's voice came dangerously low, sword piercing through storm. Enough of the circus! It was time to show his crimson s
CROSS
James sneered, his eyes simmering with rage. " The moment you take on him, you stamped a death wish with your fucking hands. Deal with it!" He kicked himself free from Vance grip, yet the manager crawled to after him like an insect, tears spilling from his eyes like a fountain, his pride crumbling before Staff members and interns who won't dare look him in the face in the past, but he didn't care about their dismayed gaze. He'd taken on the wrong person. James person. He didn't know who Kane was, but whoever he might be, he must be someone very important for James to react psycho about him. "Securities!!" James barked, his voice rippling waves. Two other Securities rushed inside, boot stumping the hall. James finger snapped at Vance, suit sagged, wristwatch loose, his ego scuffed on the floor. Manager Vance was a wreck. "Drag him out here! I don't want to see his shit in this company!" Badmus couldn't speak. He was lost for words. He was confused. Why was James so crazy about Kane

CHASE
Kane walked out of Pulse 47 unscathed, Mei simmering with rage at the side like a pressure cooker."You've just crossed the line, Kane." She bit out, her jaw tight that her gum paled."Then let's see who's gonna bleed." Kane toned firmly with an amusing edge, a silent war drum hammering between them.Kane entered his car and zoomed out of the club premises. His mind didn't stop processing everything that Mei told him at the club, his finger tapping the steering wheel, a soft steady beat.What if all Mei was saying about Isadora was true? Could she be a spy? A pretender with a scarred history? A Gay? The look in her eyes that night they tangled, was it all a con?Kane drove into his mansion and parked the car. Stepping out of the car with the phone she bought for Isadora, the security man hurried to meet up with him."Good evening, sir." He greeted with a gentle bow. Kane turned to him. "Evening, Benny. How was your day?" "It was fine, Sir." He answered politely."Is there something
DREADED
That night, Barasa was on rampage.He'd been inside the Hall 24hrs, flying the 4k camera drone in the air like his life was on the line, but he caught no face like Isadora.The men who went in search of Isadora also returned empty. Bad news for Barasa."You all are mad!! You're all pathetic scum!!" He boiled, his voice resonating the roof with anger.His men tensed. Tanker, his right hand man had never seen him Boss looking so disoriented and vexed. Barasa had practically going berserk! Not for a failed deal. Not for a ruined transaction or drug import . It was for a woman who'd made his heart restless. Her image carved deep into his soul like a mural. "Damn!!" Barasa swung the drone controller across the room with a loud crack. He stepped closer to the wall, the damaged controller crunching under his boot. He ran his finger over his head like he was going really insane, his breathing ragged and shallow. Tanker walked to him quietly, almost cautiously. He'd worked with Barasa for a
