When I heard about Mr. Draven’s disappearance, my blood rose, and my hands itched to punch someone.

Jax.

It was him. It had to be him masterminding the whole thing. But the question was, how did he hear about Draven’s whereabouts?

Everything had happened so briefly that afternoon, and even I wasn’t informed.

I pulled the round-neck T-shirt over my head and grabbed my keys immediately. After locking the door, I headed straight to Jax’s house.

That son of a bitch.

I drove faster than I should hav

    The silver gate to the biggest penthouse in the neighborhood slowly slid opened as Elyndra pulled into the Draven’s the compound. Three familiar cars were packed by the side, each taking their own spot like they knew it belonged to the. Of course she knew whose car it was. She found a spot in the garage to pack her car and switched off the ignition of her car. She stepped out dressed in a floral gown, hair styled permed with a red Zara heels to match her red shades. She grabbed her Hermes bad and entered the lobby of the house. “Good day ma’am,” the security men at the door bowed slightly and parted the way of the elevator for her. “Hello guys, how’re y’all doing? Enjoying the holiday?” She asked, removing her glasses. The men smiled, eyes widened in shock. “W-We are fine ma.” One of them replied.Elyndra noticed their surprised gaze, but she ignored it. She was used to turning heads, so this was nothing. “Alright, take care of yourselves.” She said and went towards the elevato

    Present Time Crest Fall City. Elyndra paced about in her living room. Her hands tugged on the root of her hair in frustration. She grabbed her phone from the table and began dialing.. “The number you are trying to call is currently switched off or out of coverage.” The automated telephone system sounded. She tried again. Same reply. She tried again, and again. The number you are trying to call is currently switched off or out of coverage.” The automated telephone system sounded. “Where are you?” She sighed deeply. Aa thought suddenly flashed her mind. She scrolled through her contact list. Draven’s Dad. She began dialing. Ring Ring. Ring Ring. “Hello, Elyndra.” Dennis’s voice echoed through the telephone. “How are you my dear? How is mum and dad?” “I are fine sir. We are all fine.” She replied inpatiently, “Sir… I’ve not heard from Draven. I have been calling him now for the past three days nothing. Is everything okay with him?” A silence fell through the call. Elyndr

    Absolutely — I’ll keep the same first-person narration, tension, and supernatural/time-loop mystery, while making the sentences fuller and more natural.“No,” I said, low and final.Sophia stared at me as though I had just said something completely unreasonable. “No? Draven, look at your arm. That is not something we can simply put ice on and hope it disappears.”“I know.”“Then why are you refusing?”“Because I cannot afford to have anyone else involved in this.”Elyndra’s eyes narrowed. “You are already involved with us, whether you like it or not.”I glanced at her, but she did not look away.“The moment you brought Sophia here, you involved her. The moment you told me about Haland, you involved me. And now you are sitting in my office bleeding through your clothes while insisting that you do not need a hospital. So forgive me if I do not understand your logic.”I clenched my jaw and looked down at my arm.The wound had worsened considerably since the last time I checked it, with d

    So why should I believe you? She asked, eyes narrowed at me suspiciously. “Look around you, Sophia. Is there any chance that I would go through all this risk to come to a place like this for someone I didn’t know?”“Well… i would’ve known.” Her voice blended into a whisper.“You know what? If you want to find out whether I’m being honest or not, come with me.” I said reassuringly. “I have nothing to gain from lieing.” “I understand.” She replied. Silence settled within us as I searched her eyes. She looked up and met my gaze. “I believe you. Allow me some minutes to pack my things.” “Alright. I will be here.” In no time Sophia was out. We headed to Elyndra’s company. We all sit in Elyndra’s office. The air is thick with tension. Elyndra leaned forward. “Look, I understand all of this is confusing. It was to me at first also, but come on, take a look at the young man. “Isn’t he making your inside splatter with butterflies?”Sophia turned bright red. “Urh… T-that’s not—“Not true?

    “Shall we” Draven said.I stood at the center of the interviewing room, Jax stood at the end of the room watching us keenly. The first interviewer began. “Draven Quill. Twenty-six years old. Applying for the role of the stock analyst. One question though. Why should we hire you?”I smiled. “I think the appropriate question should be why should I choose to work here?”Their faces scrunched up. They didn’t like my response. Jax intense gaze rested on me, lips curved to the side amused.“And why would you ask that?” the last interviewer asked.“If you go over my portfolio, you can see track records of successful stock analysis carried out in both the national and at the international level of various companies. I have built stock profiles of both individual account, enterprises and even offshore account. Analyze PE ratios, EPS, ROE, Dividend yield and so on of many companies, leading them to a mass percentage of profit.”They’re sole focus was on me now. Good. Now I score my goal and gai

    Jax opened the door and stepped outside.I followed him, my mind racing faster than my feet.“Where are we going?”He didn’t answer.“Jax.”He unlocked his car and pulled open the driver’s door.“Get in.”I stopped beside the passenger door.“You expect me to get into a car with you after accusing you of kidnapping Draven?”He glanced at me.“You’re welcome to walk.”I rolled my eyes and got in.The moment the door slammed shut, Jax started the engine.He drove out of the compound without another word.For the first few minutes, neither of us spoke.I watched the city blur past the window, my fingers twisting anxiously in my lap.“Where did they take him?”“An abandoned warehouse.”“Where?”“Outside the city.”I turned sharply toward him.“How do you know?”His hands tightened around the steering wheel.“Because I’ve been there before.”My stomach dropped.“When?”“Three years ago.”“For what?”He didn’t answer.Of course.I scoffed and turned back toward the window.“You’re seriously
