Alex scanned the room and every single person in it. He still couldn’t believe it. Everything happening right now is just too crazy to be real.

“Okay. This is a joke right? You can’t fire me, I’m the manager. The only person who can fire me is the CEO and he is not here. Even if he was, he would have to get the whole board to sign on it before it happens.”

Nicholas began to chuckle, devilishly. Alex kept a straight face, trying to pretend that laugh didn’t shrill him.

Nicholas covered his lips a bit, wiping an imaginary tear off his eyes. “I’m so sorry, I know I shouldn’t be laughing at a time like this but I can’t help it. Your desperate ranting is so amusing. Oh dear Alex, you seem to have forgotten so soon that every man in the top tier of the Belford family is your CEO and every fool in this board of directors, works for them, and not you.”

Nicholas got up, elegantly swaying towards Alex, the beautiful fur coat sweeping the ground and accentuating his sinister appearance.

    “It's not for free darling.” She has a little presence of an Italian accent in her voice. “I’m paying a debt.”The car parked. There were many men waiting on the beach rendezvous they picked. The lady alighted immediately while Nora unlocked the back.The lady hopped on a motorcycle, revving the engine and getting ready to go. Nora came to her.“How come you are indebted to my boss?”She pouted. “Sorry dear, I don’t spill. Ask him if you want to know. Oh and tell him that if he asks for a favor next time, he should know that he will pay for it just the way I like it.”She warned her engine and drove off. Nora watched her until she disappeared into the setting sun. She sighed, turning around. One of the henchmen gave her a signal. She ran up to him immediately, climbing onto her moving truck that they had brought. The door was sealed and the car got moving. Nora took a seat next to Nicholas.She sighed again. “Young master, why are you always having complicated issues with women?”“You

    “Doctor, has he talked?” Harman asked, with his oddly hoarse and deep voice. He was playing with cards, twirling them around on the table but not starting any games with it. The doctor kept a cool, calm expression, breathing slowly and staying as unsuspicious as possible.“I need to take him to my hospital. I have some tools there that I need. He..” the doc paused, looking down for a moment and going ahead to polish imaginary dust off his glasses. “Well let’s say he is a tough one. I have tranquilized him. He will wake in,” he looked at his watch, wiping swart off his brow immediately. “Three hours from now. It should be enough time to take him there, strap him down and wake him ourselves.”Harman’s card fell back to the table. He raised his head and looked up at the doctor. “So you are saying your tools are not all here? So you came unprepared?” Harman narrowed his eyes on the man in white with a blank face and dull eyes.“Mr. Harman, it’s foolery to travel with all my tools. They ar

    Nicholas grumbled, coughing a little. Little drops of blood soaking his clothes. Nora stepped away a little, watching Nicholas’ head fall to the side. She drew close to him again continuing her task.Nicholas breathed next to her. It sounded like him but it was two words said to sound like him. Nora gripped the seat immediately she heard those words. She cleared her throat, muttering softly.“Are you mad? You better come up with another plan because I won’t do it. I won’t… I won’t.” She unlocked the chains on his hands and got the water, wiping his wounds, Nicholas screamed, falling on Nora.“Just kill me you bastards. Just let me die. I’m not telling you anything. I’m not going to do shit like that. Better release or kill me now or else you will all pay.” His voice was so hoarse, he struggled to make his time loud although every inch of him hurt like hell.“Shut up, you idiot!!!” the doctor sprang up from the floor where he had been kneeling and sorting out medical tools. He stormed

    Nora screeched to a halt in the middle of nowhere. She jumped out of the car and slammed the door, scattering her hair.“Shit!!!!!” she yelled into the sunset, turning around and kicking the car door, until she couldn’t anymore. She clenched her chest, trying to catch her breath. She felt like she was suffocating. They didn’t think of this. They planned for everything but not for a monster like Anton. Her gaze shifted from the ground to the box inside the car.So they will have to use this trump card in the end. Nicholas was right. The defeat of Harman was too easy. Speaking of Nicholas, she sighed, hoping he hangs in there till she can get to him. That is, if he is still alive.SOMEWHERE IN AFRICAThe lights in the red room kept sparking and flickering. Nicholas’ head was thrown back on the chair. His eyes half open and staring at the blinking lights. He heaved difficulty, feeling oxygen painfully squeeze his lungs. He coughed, blood dripping from his mouth.How long has he been here

    Nicholas pulled his gun. He has chosen the one with the fattest barrel, just for this occasion.“That’s very cute if you say but I think you ought to know better than to think I came here unprepared.”Nora tugged him by the shirt, trying to draw his attention. She kept muttering. “Nicholas please we have to get out here. We are not prepared for Anton Del Belvoir. He is going to kill us. Nicholas.”Anton smiled and then raised his gun up. “There is no preparation in this world that can save you from me. You should have listened to your lady back there. In your next life, don’t cross parts with me.”Anton pulled the trigger. The sound of a gun shot erupted in the room. Immediately the four doors of the conference hall flew open and black ops flooded through the room, shooting at Nicholas.“Dive.” He yelled at Nora, dragging her down with him. Nora grabbed the fleeing Harman, forcing him down and collecting the key while Nicholas emptied his bullets on the back ops.“Open the door. I wil

    EN COMPANION TOWERHarman stopped in front of the CEO’s office. He paused and took a deep breath, squeezing his trembling hands together. It’s been so long since he entered this office. Since he saw his Master’s face. To be honest, he loved every single day it was like that. He never thought that he would have to see his boss’ face again but most of all, he never imagined that he would be the one to call his boss to come.He cleared his throat. Hell, it doesn’t matter how bad things will get. He needs to save his son. He needs to save his position. This is the only option. If anyone can get rid of that Maniac, Nicholas Belford, it’s his boss.He sucked in a breath and quietly pushed the door open. He stepped in and shut it noiselessly. He turned around and bowed, bending his hip as far down as possible.“Lord Anton, thank you so much for coming. My son will be safe again. This tower will be safe again. Thank you boss.”At the far end of a very long conference table, a man clothed in w
