Stepping into death
Zone Eight, An off-limit area, located far, beyond the fringe of the city.Rumours had it that the truft was restricted due to a tremendous earthquake ten years ago, some believed that the government had forbidden the land because of some hidden reasons, and some personal opinion about the land was that— it was an inhabitants for the dangerous— Very dangerous animals, and hence it is prohibited for residence and any purpose.But one thing, regardless of the citizen's beliefs was that, Zone Eight is a terrified place to enter for any reason, and stepping inside the land is not just unjustly breaking the rules of the government, but also a threat to life.The geography of the land is more of forests, mountains, and hills. Some parts of the ground had fissures, deep into the ground, and perhaps, earthquakes might be the main reason the land was out-of-bound by the government, and this place became the hideout of Tristan Cole to carry out his outlawed missions.The car slowed as Domi
The zone Eight
"The kid is more brilliant than I thought." Caspian grinned, patting the pistol against his cheek in casual playfulness, but his mind calculated fast. "He's bringing cash. $30 million is a hell of a big amount of money. He's right. The bank will flag the transaction instantly." Rico raised a brow, obviously agitated. "Are you sure the kid is gonna come with the money? I mean...most of the hostages in the past couldn't even afford the ransom instantly. Some took months before they could comply." Caspian nodded, his eyes thoughtful. "You're right, Rico," He said. "The kid couldn't have...it's impossible to get such an amount of money. He's just a kid...but stupidly bold. But let him come. He and everyone. They're not leaving here alive." Vanessa's heart dropped. Fear gripped her heart. "N—no, please," Her voice echoed all over the place. "Leave him out of this. Please." Caspian slammed her face in annoyance. "Shut the f*ck up, bitch." Vanessa's head snapped to the side, blood t

Lone wolf in the stupid pack
The night was getting darker and longer even. Dominic stood at the side of the road where he'd just received the call from the unknown number that requested $30 million grands or Vanessa will pay with her life if the demand is not met."She's been kidnapped." Dominic stood straighter, concern etched all over his face. "They're asking for $30 million grands or she's gonna die."The chubby officer, the lead investigator who'd spoken rudely to Dominic earlier, turned to look at in mild shock."$30?! What," He gasped. "You... can you even pay a quarter of that ridiculous amount of money?" He toned, the condescension beneath the exaggerated shock was stark.Dominic raised a brow. He didn't like the inspector the first time he saw him. He reeked of mischief. And in turn, Dominic was astute the man wasn't going to be interested in him too. But he didn't give a damn about his interest!He raised a brow. "Are you giving the opinion that we should comply with the criminal's demand?" He asked
Ashes of the golden boy
At the Lumbard family house, the air was condensed. Mr. Lumbard paced up and down the living room, looking like fear was gradually eating up all sense of human.Mrs. Lumbard stood up, concern etching on her face but she maintained distance. She hadn't seen her husband fidgeting like this in their Twenty-five years of marriage. He screamed at her earlier. Unbelievable! Ridiculous!"Honey, this can be settled tomorrow...can er go to bed al..."Mr. Lumbard spun on her, his eyes darkened in rage. "Go to bed?" He cut her off rudely. "You want to sleep when my career is about to burn to ash! Do you know who that kid your son trampled on?!" His finger jabbed in the air."Who's he?" He paused to look at her like she was asking a stupid question. The door of the apartment parted and Connor dragged himself inside. His face reddened with the marks of fingerprints. Lumps bloomed across his face. He threw his head down in shame. The guy who had left in denim in jeans looks like he got attacked in
$30 million price ransom
Inside of a long abandoned warehouse skittered with planks and cartons. The ambiance was dim, the kind that's creepy for any souls, and the location was farther away from the metropolis, at the fringe of the city where internet connection had been severed, signals completely snapped. In summary, the connections had been cut off entirely. No call access. No signal. This place was designed by Tristan Cole to Carry out his dangerous operations, and unfortunately...maybe unfortunately for him, Vanessa became his next target.In the centre of the hall was Vanessa, her hands tired to the armrest of the chair. Her head dropped low, seemingly unconsciousness. The smell of cigarettes hit in the air as smoke curled in the air from a cigarette clipped between Rico's finger, piercing faint red light into the darkness.His height was average, but he loomed, scary like a shadow, his eyes marked with scars that could make a kid wet his pants.He pulled out the cigarette from his lips. "Wake her.
