FREYA I could tell that something bad had happened. My subconscious could tell I was about to hear something that would change my life forever. Kate and Jerry's face said so. I shake my head. " I remember having plans to meet you guys at the restaurant I work at. But then, I stumbled across Alex and Stella, who said words that got to me," I pause, the events of that night slowly coming back to me. " I left because I couldn't take it anymore and I had my...."My eyes shot up at Kate, wide. " My kids! They were in the car with me!" I try to take quick breaths to calm myself, but I couldn't. "Where are they? Are they okay?".Kate and Jerry look at each other, and a cold shiver ran down my back. That look was not okay at all. Something had happened to my kids. I could feel the tears springing up into my eyes. " Please," I take Kate's hands. "Please, tell me they are okay. I already failed them a lot, I won't b
FREYA Freya Amelia Hamfeild. That is my identity now. . Yes, I agreed to be Kate and Jerry's adopted daughter, and my kids now had Hamfeild attached to their names. Everything I watch my kids live and enjoy a privileged life, my heart aches at the fact that Meena is not here. I was not the only one that missed Meena's bubbly personality, Chris did too. For months after her death, Chris had withdrawed to himself. A few nights, I had caught him crying in his bed, and when I asked, he told me that he missed Meena. I guess he loved her so much, despite them always bickering and going at each other's throat. Or maybe, that had been their way of showing each other love. We were all in a better place now. I had learned to look in the mirror, and I appreciate the beauty of my face. I no more had appointments with therapists, psychologists and doctors. I had learned the loops of the Hamfeild business and was being trained to take over when my parents finally decided to retire. Mom. Dad.
FREYAI alighted from the car in which Kate had drove me to the airport. Kate alighted from the car as well, and came to the back of the car where I was getting my suitcases. She reached for one of the suitcases, but I pulled it out of her reach. " I've got it, Mom," I gave her a warning look, knowing she would reach for it again. " Are you sure you can handle opening a branch over there all by yourself?" she asked for the umpteenth time. " At least take Jack with you, he's been with us for a long time. He will be quite helpful."I turn to Kate a frown on my face, and my arms folded across my chest. " You know, mom, at first, I thought you were just worried about me. But now..." I shake my head. " I'm beginning to think you just don't trust me at all," I accused. " Of course, I do, baby," she soothed. " I'm just worried. Things could get overwhelming."I place my hands on her shoulders. "Mom, I already have some people over there who would help in one thing or the other..." Mostly
FREYA" Ma'am, someone made a delivery to you," my personal assistance tells me as I walk into my office. I signal for her to wait a moment as I was on call. She nods, a big brown envelope in her hand. Once I was done with the call, I turn my attention to her, a smile on my face. " Yes, dear, what we're you saying?" I ask her. She drops the envelope on my table. " This was delivered this morning to you anonymously. The delivery man said its the information you paid for," she explains. My eyes widens. " Really?"She nods in reply and I reach for the brown envelope immediately. Finally. I was beginning to think that they couldn't get any information for me. The mafia are known for being very secretive, after all. They had all this businesses in place to cover their illegal acts. " Thank you, Sarah," I said in a dismissing tone. She got the message and left my voice. I tore the envelope open, and brought out the stuffs inside it. I scan one document after another, my eyes narrowing
FREYA I stood in front of my dresser's mirror, in the condon I had bought after a got here. Jiel came over once in while to stay with me, but since I started infiltrating the mafia world, I told her to stay away. I didn't want to drag into this, and also, she would only become a weakness, a way to get to me - which one of the reason I didn't want anyone from Texas, coming with me. I was walking into a war zone and in this war zone, they don't fight fair. It's a bloody dirty fight, one I'm determined to win. I stare at myself in the mirror, running my hands over the fabric of the gown I was wearing. I looked hot in this, if I would say so myself. The gown is mid thigh long, and had a plunging neckline. The sleeves are long, ending with funnel shaped cuffs that had some shiny stuffs on it. The gown clinged to my body like a second skin, showing off my curves. I had white heels on, with it's leg binding wrappping all around my shapely leg, up.to my calf. I twirl in front of the mirr
FREYA I had been all over Jaxton. I had enjoyed Jaxton's hands on me. I had even been contemplating dragging him off to a room and having a quickie with him. " Hey, are you okay?" His voice, laced with concern snapped me out of the trance I had fallen into. I came back to my senses only to realize that we were still only inches apart from each other, that my hand was still under his trousers and still gripping his dick. My hand moved reflexively, clenching a bit around his dick. He groaned, and I immediately withdrew my hand from under his waistband, moving away from him. This had been part of the plan; seducing Jaxton and making him crazy about me, but never giving him what he wants. I should actually be happy about this coincidence, but I just realized that It's going to be hard to keep from allowing him to fuck my brains out. Why was he so gentle, less domineering just now?He took a step forward, and I took one back. I frown when he stops. Why isn't he going for what he wan
FREYA" Where were you last night?" I asked, leveling a look on my driver through the side view mirror. His eyes meets mine, and skides away once again. I watch him.I frown. " Did you get drunk?" he looked like someone that was nursing a headache from drinking, just as I was. " I'm sorry, Freya, I was....""Did you take drugs for the headache?" I ask interrupting him. He shakes his head, wincing. " Stop at a drug store on your way to the office and buy one," I instructed, turning my attention to my tablet. On getting to the office, I alight from the car and told him he could have the rest of the day off. " Are you sure, Freya? I can..."I glare at him. " I said take the rest of the day off, I don't need you looking all groggy around me," I said firmly. " I won't be leaving the office until it's time to go home, and i'm pretty sure I won't die if I drive myself for a day, now would I?"He smiles, and I smile back. " Glad we understand each other. Now, off you go."I take my car key
The sound of the gunshot shattered the glass wall as well as the quietness of the suite, and I froze in terror, not knowing what to do. Where was the gun shots coming from? Who was firing the shots to start with?"Take cover!" I heard Zain order in a commanding voice. He hide behind a pillar in my sitting room, shielding himself from the gunshots. "Where the fuck is the shots coming from?" He hollered in frustration at his men, as the gunshots kept coming with no interlude. The stampede for safety and the shouts as Zain and his men communicated with each other snapped me out of my reverie. I hurled myself behind the couch closest to me, and then, I tried to peek from behind the couch to see where the shots were coming from. A ear piercing scream left my lips as a bullet wheezed pass me and imbibed itself on the wall behind me. I dodged back behind the couch, my heart going a thousand miles. "It's a sniper!" One of Zain's men shouted. " He's on the rooftop of the building opposite,
