Kade Crowe sat at the back of the Taxi that drove him to the Blossom hotel. The city blurred past his eyes through the window in streaks of neon lights, colourful banners and passing passengers.

The street was still lively by that time of the night. Workers returning from their Jobs, kids playing at the amusement center, their laughter blending together in excitement, roadside stores calling at passersby to patronize their goods.

Then suddenly,

BOOM!

The explosion rang out at a distance acros

Another person beat Down his prize."$1 million!!!" Another person screamed.It was a battle of money as the men treated Sophia like a common commodity.This wasn't how she intended her day would go after all the plans that was made the previous night. He silently wished Kane understood her call earlier and came to her rescue but despite the thought, she was hopeless."$5 million!!" A short bald man with a heavy belly raised his pad. The room silenced. This man is Thomson Damon, a twisted billionaire with a sick affection for women who can give him a little fight. He's a misogynistic sadist.

    "Where are we?" Sophia's voice cracked on the question."I heard two men talking earlier..it's the largest underground auction." The girl beside her responded with a trembling voice.Sophia's eyes widened in horror."Underground auction?" She repeated, her voice was barely a whisper like the response alone was enough to make her understand that she was in a grave danger. She lost her memory, and now she was about to be sold off to some stranger like a mere object.Her survival instinct kicked in immediately. She patted her pocket frantically, searching for her phone. It was gone. Her stomach sank."They took my phone." "They took everyone's phone. They will probably sell it to illegal dealers." That was the new phone Kade purchased for her the previous day. "I have a phone with me..but I can't remember any number to call. My head is empty." A small voice came from the corner of the room, but Audible. It was a young girl with an acute stress reaction, probably mid twenties. She pr

    A cold metal pressed against her neck.Sophia flinched, trembling on the leather seat."Don't shout," A deep masculine voice rumbled at the back seat, "or I'll slit your throat." "What...what is going on..." Her voice cracked with fear. She glanced at the front mirror and saw the man. Bald head, broad shouldered, tattoo covered all over his neck to his arms and probably all over his body. Maybe his dick too. Sophia's voice Hammered with fear. "Please.. don't kill me." The driver didn't even look back. He was definitely an accomplice."Drive!"The tattooed man commanded, still pressing the blade to her neck.The taxi moved immediately.Snap!He twisted Sophia's neck with one swift move like he'd done this before. Sophia's lost consciousness and her body slumped to the seat.After about an hour, Sophia woke up with a splitting head to find herself in a dim room, the wall was rocky jagged, guarded with grille wrought iron gate that made it look like a prison. She sat up. Her suit was

    The next morning, Sophia was up from the bed, standing in front of a mirror that reflected her silhouette, adjusting the collar of a black suit that fitted her perfectly. Attractive, yet modest.Satisfied with her look, she walked to the bed and sat at the edge. She bent slightly, sliding a black heels into her feets. Lastly, she grabbed her clutch on the bed and clicked back to the mirror, making sure everything was perfect.She stepped out of her room to the main room."You're all prepared." Kade stepped out in a plain shirt. He observed her dressing for a few seconds and nodded gently. "Presentable." "Thank you." Sophia smiled lightly."The room service brought in breakfast." He stepped forward, passing beside her to the dinning room."What's that?" Sophia clicked Behind him."I asked them to prepare something good." He simply said, standing at the table where silver trays spread across with expensive wines and juices. He open one lid. The trapped aroma and steam hit his face. Kad

  • Chapter 20: THE PLAN TO TAKE IT ALL

    Kade and Sophia returned back to the hotel with the shopping bag spilled behind them on the bed. Suits, pants, and other kinds of clothes that would make the task ahead goes smoothly.They both stood at a table at the centre of the room, bright light cast on freshly printed documents that contained the operational blueprint of the Mercer headquarters.Kade pointed at one. "Mercer headquarters has nine major departments." He said, his voice sharp. "It won't be easy to get all information from the department. You infiltrate, then you use the charismatic charm on them. Only then can you make alliance." He said.Sophia nodded in understanding."So, you'll be working here." He circled one department on the sheet."Finance department." Sophia said Sharply, looking at him."Yes. The finance is the powerhouse of any organization. Every operation, every deal, every exchange, and every investment Mercer are making, even the lists of their shareholders, you'll get to have the information." Soph

    Sophia's fingers closed hard, nails digging crescent into her palm, searching for blood.Only one thought consumed her mind at the moment.Revenge.Her eyes darkened, her jaw set in determination."I will get back everything they took away from me and I'll make them pay. All of them." She walked closer to Kade who seated calmly , leaning his back against the chair in relaxed posture."I need your help." She said, almost persuading. "We have the same goal now. Revenge. Let's work together." Kade chuckled, sitting straighter and looking at her."And what makes you think I can help you?" "Because you're capable." She said confidently. Kade raised a brow, clueless about her statement. "You rescued me from that accident that night when no one could help me. You're capable." "That's assumption." Kade said."It's fact." She retorted quickly."You're going to a war with no memories. That's suicide. Even I'll help you, it's a blind war." He exhaled sharply. "The Mercer family you knew when
