Chapter 11: A DEATH TRAPLeo Romans was beaming with joy as they made plans on what to do with Migual, he was excited and could already imagine himself sitting on his late father’s chair in his office, that was a day he was looking forward to.“When do we do this?” He asked his mother, Rose returned his smile seemingly excited too.“As soon as you like” she said, Leo stood up pacing around the room“Even tomorrow” Rose added, “I will try to act nice to him then, I don't want him to expect what is coming for him, it will kill the fun” Leo said merrily to his mother.*You need to be careful nothing goes wrong, I will keep the old hog occupied so she doesn't know what’s happening” Rose suggested, when the mother and Son heard Rain drop something on the floor, they both turned their attention to her,“Am sorry, I didn't mean to” Rain immediately apologized her entre body shaking in fear. Rose looked at the broken vase on the floor, she walked over to Rain and hit her across the face, “do

Chapter 13: AN ACT OF AFFECTIONMigual watched surprised as Rose entered his room, she looked around the room her expression calm,“Morning, mom… I mean Rose” Migual quickly corrected himself remembering how Rose had asked him not to call her his mother, Rose broke down immediately he spoke, for a moment, Migual was dumpfolded, “am sorry”;Rose whispered covering her face in her palms,“It's okay” Migual sat next to her patting her back in comfort, he felt the urge to cry but kept himself composed blinking away a flood of tears “Oh Migual.

Chapter 15: IRONIC When Migual opened his eyes, he found himself tied to a chair. He could not move his hands or legs, as he was trying to register what was happening, he heard Leo’s laughter from across him and finally noticed his presence. “What is this Leo?" He asked alarmed. It was then that he realized that Rain had been right all along about his life being in danger, he blamed himself for letting his guard down and refusing to believe what Rain told him,“Finally, you are awake" Leo stood in front of him with his phone in his hands, he captured a picture of Migual before he put his phone away. “I would have loved to make this worth my time but unfortunately, you are my brother.

Chapter 17: PREGNANT A wave of fear washed over Rain as she watched Rose approach her. Two years of staying under the same roof with her had taught her just how ruthless Rose could be. The first few months of her marriage, she had been worried Rose would influence her husband against her since she wasn't liked by the get go but as time went by, Rain realized Leo was no different from his mother.
