CHAPTER ONE
The place was perfectly lit. People moving up and down. Some stood at their tables as they sipped on their wines. Other talked about something that he didn’t even understand. He took wine glasses from the tables and served them. Trying to not give them a reason to talk about him or shout at him.
But no matter what he did, Trevor was always shouted at. Because of one thing or the other.
“No one likes him. The only one that was nice to him was the grandfather. Mr. Noah,” a woman spoke as he took the wineglasses. Thinking he was not listening to their conversation.
“It’s sad, really. They have been mistreating the man all the time. But that is what he gets for thinking he can get rich by marrying into this family,” her friend spoke.
He just sighed and walked away. Beating down his anger and pain. Just because he had nowhere to go, he had to endure everything they said to him. Whatever they threw at him, he endured through it all.
He was an orphan that used to leave in the streets. Until a year ago, when Mr. Noah took him in and married him to his youngest granddaughter, who didn’t love him at all. But only did it for her grandfather’s sake.
But the big man was no more. And now he was leaving more miserable than he used to.
Starting from the grandmother, his mother-in-law and the siblings to his wife, all treated him like a slave. Making him do all sorts of things because of their hatred. And all because he is poor and was not by their standards.
As he walked to pass more wine to the people at large, the grandmother cleared her throat in front and everyone went quiet. It happened to be her seventies birthday party. And they invited all their friends and workmates. All of rich standards.
She was fat, you can’t even tell if the woman had a neck or not.
“As you all know, I have advanced in age. Not a lot reach this stage I have reached. And I’m grateful to all of you for being with me. And to my grandkids who have showed me all the love in the world,” she gestured and they all walked on stage.
Eliza, Trevor’s wife, had two elder brothers, of which had also had wives from rich families. And she had two other sisters, and they all had husbands of higher standards, like the Noah family. And Eliza, the youngest, was the only one with a poor husband.
They all presented their presents to their grandmother. Even the in-laws. Except for Trevor. He tried to walk on stage but he was stopped by some huge man that stood at the stage.
He tried talking to the man to allowing him present his present to grandmother, but the man refused. That he was ordered not to allow him on stage for any reason.
He just walked away with his tiny box. Trying to get why Mr. Noah allowed him to marry into his family when he knew what his family was like? Why did he leave him alone to endure all this?
He walked to the back sit. Again, he overheard people talking about him. How he is a loser and why he tried to trick the family into getting rich. How he tricked the old man into allowing him to marry his youngest granddaughter.
He just passed and went upstairs straight into his bedroom. Putting the present, he got on the bed.
Sometimes he wished he was never been here. He wished he had never met Mr. Noah. Maybe. Just maybe his life would have been a bit different from it was.
Yes, he was getting meals and a place to leave in. But he had to suffer for those. To do all the work in the house. Laundry, cleaning the house. Outside gardening and all sorts of things. And that too they will end up shouting at him for no reason at all.
He loves Eliza, and that was one of the reason he married her. The other was because he wanted to please Mr. Noah. Because he felt like he owe the man something. So he had to do what he asked of him.
But that led him into this situation.
There was a loud knock on the door of his hostage house. It was made of wood and it was far enough from the mansion.
“Come in,” he called out.
A woman entered who was in her early twenties. She wore a red designer dress that had an opening all the way to her thighs. Then matched it with high-heeled shoes despite her been tall.
Her shout hair was perfectly maintained, and her gray eyes made her light skin glow even more.
“What do you think you are doing here? Grandmother is looking for you. You think we give you food for free around this house?” She scolded.
He stood up; he hadn’t even realized it had been that long ever since he came to his little place.
“The people have left, and the house needs to be cleaned,” she said, looking at him in disgust.
“But Eliza, I have been working the all day. And it’s twelve in the morning,” he looked at his wristwatch. “Can’t I do it tomorrow? Please,” he spoke in a tender voice.
Sometimes he wondered how she could treat him like that, known too well he was her husband. Yes, he was not rich. But at least she could have shown him a bit of compassion.
“Complain. We don’t keep you here to be sleeping around. We can’t be leaving in that dirty house. You need to clean it now,” she said and walked out, slamming the door behind her. Some dust even fell on his head.
He sighed, and he took the box on his bed. Maybe this would help. Maybe grandmother will treating better if she sees the present he got for her.
He walked out and hoped for the best.

She clenched on the floor as she held his head. A blood smile stretched across his face. But she cried even more. How and why was this happening to her and her family? She nearly lost him back then and now she might lose him for good.“It will be fine. Just hang in there,” she said, pressing her hands on the gun wound. Moses stood eyes wide open a few feet away. He looked scared, worried. Mubanga didn’t look any better. She didn’t want any of this. Yes, she wanted to get that freedom she thought she needed. But she didn’t want anyone to die. Not like this. Abigail was the only one looking better. She didn’t seem to be too surprised or as worried as the two. She actually looked relieved. “Eliza…” “Don’t even say anything Moses,” she snapped, looking at him. “You know he would have helped you with whatever you needed if you just talked to him right? Was this really necessary? You could have come and talked to me. Now you have killed our brother and look at my husband. I will make s

Moses was pacing around the living room. His wife sat on the couch with her hands on the sides of her temple—her gun in hand. She looked scared, worried. Could it be that she was guilty about shooting Mateo? But she was heartless, at least that was what Trevor and Eliza thought. Trevor was soothing Eliza as she cried, looking at the body of her brother on the floor. What would she tell her mother and grandmother? What would they even think about her and Trevor now? They already don’t like him, and now this. “Eliza, we will be fine. I won’t let anything happen to you and the baby. I have to die for that to happen…”“Don’t say that,” she looked up at him. “I can’t lose you, too. I won’t lose you as well, Trevor. There is no way I will raise this child alone.”He forced a smile, “I won’t die. We will be fine.”There was silence as he thought about what he was doing. What if his plan fails? What then? He couldn’t risk Moses finding out about what he was doing. Messing up again was nev

They both went running to the living room. And then hit a stop after seeing Mateo on the floor. “Trevor!” Eliza screamed and rushed to hug Trevor. “Mateo! What will I tell our mother? What will I tell his wife and kids?” She cried on his shoulder. He just soothed her as he looked at the blood on the floor. Mateo was gone. Just like that. This was more serious than he imagined. Whatever he thought this was just changed after this. And the next body could be Eliza’s or his if he didn’t play his cards nicely. He needed to think of a better plan to get out of this one. “What happened? I thought you said no killings. Why would you kill Mateo? He is your brother, for God’s sake. Why would you ask your psychopath wife to shoot him?” He snapped, walking to stand a few feet from Moses. “Moses, listen. We talked about this. I was going to do whatever you wanted me to do. And then you were going to leave me and my family the hell alone. But so much for that.”There was silence, Moses looked

His heart was pounding. How did he allow this to happen? Why was this happening? And who the hell was the woman with Alexander? Alexander gestured for them to take their seats. Because he had a gun, it wasn’t like there was a lot they could have done. They just followed suit and took their seats. Eliza held on to Trevor’s harm. This was not happening to her again. As much as she was trying to be strong and not thinking about what happened, it still did, and the thought of it happening again didn’t sound okay with her. She looked at Trevor, and he just smiled, silently telling her it was going to be okay. “Listen man, whatever you need I can…”He scoffed, “you can’t give me crap Trevor. And if I listen to you saying you will do the same thing you did. I didn’t want to do this. I asked you nicely to give me what rightfully belonged to me. But what did you guys do? You played me and my wife like a fool.”“Wife?” They all gasped. “Yes, wife. You thought I wasn’t married. I told you e

The next morning, he woke up and found Eliza wasn’t in bed. And suddenly his heart skipped. He jumped and rushed out of the bedroom, shouting her name. When he couldn’t find her inside, he rushed outside the house. Shouting and hoping she was still alive. How could he allow her to be kidnapped again? How could she have been kidnapped again? And by how? Could have Alexander managed to enter the house and take her? He went around the house, and there was no sign of her. After a while of searching, he went inside the house, got his phone and called her. Luckily, she picked up.“Trevor. Morning,” she answered from the other side. “Where are you? Are you okay?” He demanded, his breath shallow. “I’m at a supermarket. I wanted to get a few things. We were running out of supplies. What is the matter?”“You left without telling me. I got worried. After what happened, I don’t think you should be walking outside alone. You should have woken me up, Eliza. What if Alexander was waiting for y

The room was eerily quiet, his friends didn’t look as anxious as he did though. They knew what was happening and what his board members were going to say. Could they have been thinking of throwing him off the company? He was the one with the most shares, but what if they voted him out? What then? “So here is the thing,” the woman began. “We are old as you can see,” they all laughed except him. “And we can’t keep doing this anymore. We have done our part, and it’s now time for new people to take it up. Right Eliza?” She looked at his wife who just tightened her grip on Trevor’s arm, but nodded. “We, as the board, you excluded, have decided to leave the company.”His heart sank. “What do you mean by leaving the company? You know I can’t run it without you guys. The only reason it has been able to stand for all these years is because you guys have been there. You can’t do this to me.” He demanded, and before he knew it, he was pacing. “You need to revisit that plan of yours. I can’t and
