One of the rules of the company was, never drink on the job.He poured himself a drink, bringing it to his lips.The perks of owning the company, he thought.Logan was a good man, he almost felt sorry for his current predicament but like his father used to say."Only the mighty survive in the world".Tomorrow was going to be an interesting day.

Chapter Two
~~Two years ago~~Kimberly walked in holding a bunch of documents."Sir, I have all the papers ready. All you need to do is sign them so demolition can begin".If there was one thing about Kimberly, it was that she was efficient and almost never wrong which was why he had hired her immediately after she graduated.He would admit, she was a sight for sore eyes but he would never break one of his rules and that was Never mix business with pleasure.He nodded at her. A silent indication that she could leave."Kimberly", he called out.She paused but didn't turn."I will be going to look at the place myself".Ryke couldn't recall why he bought the land particularly. Oh actually he could, it was because of the restaurant standing built on it.The place was colorful, everyone and everything around it radiated happiness. It looked like it needed someone to help down the spirits.Some might call him sad, he didn't actually care. He was a realist and one thing he knew, "The word is a sad and d

Chapter Three
"I've never been this up close", Bels gasped"Me too. You think they will let us in?'"You didn't know if they would let us in when you dashed off like superwoman?"Crystal glared at her. "Sorry sorry. I know now is not the time for jokes".Turns out getting in was not much of a hassle. The security guards just let them in after they stated their names."It's even bigger inside"."Why are you acting like this is the first time you've been to a billion dollar company"."Logan's company might be big yes, but girl this just hits differently".Crystal rolled her eyes."Do we even know where we are going?""If his ego is as big as they say it is, then we are heading to the top floor".Immediately they stepped out of the elevator, someone called her name."Crystal Steele?".The woman in front of her was beautiful. She looked like she was in her late twenties with dark blonde hair pinned upwards, no piece falling out of place. Olive green eyes that were smiling kindly at her."Owww. What was

Chapter Four
There were very few things that irritated Ryke. People that talked to loud, Women that didn't understand the difference between a one time fuck and a relationship, People that wasted his time, Prolonged conversations but most of all, it was not getting what he wanted. He stared out his window with a frown on his face. To say the meeting with Jacob Morgan had left him irritated would be an understatement. "Mr. Sterling. It's finally nice to meet the genius behind Sterlings, Jacob said as he extended his hand for a handshake. Jacob Morgan carried himself like he had seen it all. Considering that he was a man in his late seventies, he would be deserving of that right. Peppered gray hair and beards with hazel eyes that looked kind when he smiled. "Mr Morgan. The honor is mine", he took his hands. " Why don't we get down to business. I went through the documents personally. Only the best for a company as good as Sterlings and I have to say I was very impressed. Well I hadn't expect

Chapter Five
The bright light hit her eyes as she opened them, almost blinding her. She looked around trying to decipher where she was. She couldn’t quite explain it but she felt a sense of warmth surrounding her, like everything was right in the world.“Why are you standing all alone my little swan?”.Crystal’s head whipped around so fast that it could have snapped off. Her mother stood in front of her with a beautiful smile and her eyes sparkling with mischief.“Mum”.Crystal’s legs moved before her brain could catch up and she was throwing herself into her mother’s open arms.“Mum”, she said again crying into her mother’s chest.She finally recovered herself, “How are you here?. Am I dead?. Where’s Dad?. What is this place?”.Jessica laughed softly, the sound floating into the air, “You don’t have to worry my little swan. Everything will be fine. Come I want to show you something”.Her mother led her through a passage. They walked for a while, coming to a stop eventually.Crystal gasped. The

Chapter Six
Crystal lay on the bed facing the ceiling.“If you think dying is your way out this contract then you’d have to think again”.She didn’t need to turn to know who it was. She had been having recurring dreams with the owner of the voice starring in most of them.“If you’ve come to irritate me, then you can save it for later. After all, we have the rest of our lives to spend together”.Ryke smiled, he realized he had been doing a lot of that lately. That mouth of hers. He couldn’t wait to discover what else they did apart from spit fire."It's funny how easily your brother signed you off. One might think he was eager to get rid of you", Ryke said, trying to rile her up more.It worked.Crystal glared at him, "Don't talk about my brother. You know nothing of our relationship".Ryke sighed, "You are acting like a petulant child. I know you are only eighteen but you mustn't act like it"."Since I'm such a child, why did you force me into a marriage and what are you even here?""Stop raising

Chapter Seven
The hospital was awfully quiet. The only sound that could be heard were the low beeping of the machines that were probably supporting people's lives. Crystal rolled and tossed in bed bored out of her mind. Why hadn't they discharged her yet?. Maybe she could have gone with Ryke then when they got outside, she would have screamed kidnapper then run off. Logan and Isabella had come back trying to talk to her. They had nothing to say that would make the situation better so she had sent them away. "Why is your hair so white?. Is that a medical condition?" Crystal turned to meet beautiful olive eyes staring back at her. They belonged to a pale looking little girl. She couldn't be more than nine or ten years old. "What?" "Your hair, were you born with it?", the girl said, stepping forward. "Uhmmm yes. Shouldn't you be in bed?" The little girl giggled, "I should but I like it when Nurse Mary runs around the hospital trying to find me. She could use the exercise". Crystal laughed.

Chapter Eight
The stench of chemicals was becoming unbearable."I need to get out of this hospital". Crystal removed the tubes stuck in her arm. She was about to sneak out of the hospital room when something caught her eye.She picked it up. Ryke had left his business card.Did he really expect her to call him?She threw it and it landed on the bed. "On second thought, I need to call him and give him a little bit more words".Crystal managed to make it out without anyone seeing her.The hospital really needed to up their security.She couldn't call Logan because she really didn't want to owe him any favors, Isabella wasn't the best person on her radar. She quickly programmed Ryke's number in her phone and then she began to walk.She felt a pang. Where was she really walking to?Her home was basically not her home anymore since she had been given to someone as a property.What was happening?"Are you lost? Come little girl I'll show you the way".Crystal turned swiftly. There were three huge men st

Chapter Nine
Voices floated around her.What was that awful smell? and didn't she just leave the hospital.She blinked, her eyes adjusting to the bright light."You are awake".She tried to get up to face the owner of the voice but she felt a sharp pain in her leg."The Doctor said you shouldn't try to move too quickly. You got lucky. The bullet didn't do much damage but you still need time to heal".She looked at him talking so casually like he wasn't the reason a psycho bitch shot at her."Aren't you going to say anything?"Crystal stared at him still staying quiet.Logan rushed into the room, Isabella following suit."Oh my God Crystal, are you okay?", Isabella asked going to get side."Snowflake are you okay?"Why were they asking her that stupid question. She was shot, she's in the hospital. Of course she's not okay.So she kept quiet still.Logan turned to Ryke angrily, "It hasn't been up to a day and you already got her shot"."I do not need to explain anything to you. Now if the two of you

Chapter Ten
"Wake up, son".Ryke tossed and turned in bed, the next thing he felt was a slap on his face."When I say wake up, you do it immediately. Now get ready, we are going on a trip".Ryke stood up, trying to fight the tears forming in his eyes.He had never understood why his father hated him so much. He was only ten years old and he had experienced enough beatings to last him two lifetimes.He passed his mother on his way out, and she smiled at him while trying to hide her swollen eyes.There was no point really."Hurry up boy, only a woman drags her feet"."I'm coming Dad".Ryke stilled, "I'm sorry Dad. I mean Sir".Richard smiled at his son, "You know what. I'm in a good mood today so I'll let it slide".The trip took forever. The snow seeped into his clothes.His father had forbidden him from wearing a jacket saying, "I am training you to be a strong man. Strong men can withstand anything"."We are here", Richard announced.Ryke stood, trying to keep his eyes open. The snow was becomin
