Melissa’s POV
For the first time, since I was abducted I was afraid for my life. The person standing before me now is not a human being. He is a monster!
I started shivering. For once I wished that I would be imbued with some superpowers to break free.
“What do you want from me?” I asked. He laughed me, the sound echoed through out the room.
“Am the boss around here,” he instructed while wringing my ears. The next statement he made, made me even more afraid.
Smith’s POV
“ Do you remember our good friends from high school? they will be joining us today.”
I can literally feel the fear from Melissa. I am enjoying this. For me hunting is much more fun , when the prey is fearful of the predator.
“Dear sister, do you remember the tale of the antelope and the lion?”
Melissa’s POV
Whatever he was saying was not coherent at all. “Don’t tell me you have forgotten?” he jeered.
“Well, if you have really forg

KATE Gathering of past friends
Emily’s POV I woke up to find myself in an unfamiliar environment. I tried to open my eyes, it seemed like they were gummed together. Obviously compressed by the incessant headache. It was as though my head was been hit with a hammer. It penetrated my skull and affected my eyes making me to be momentarily blind. I could only see hazily. The light rays were directed to my face. Finally I regained consciousness. “Where am I?” was the first question I asked myself. I slowly recalled what happened earlier. “It is Smith,” was the melancholic response. I painfully tried to turn to the direction of the sound. The manner I was tied up was causing excruciating pain in my knees and hands, maybe because of the twisted movement I made earlier. Mr and Mrs Stewart were still unconscious. The subconscious survival instincts kicked in. I was trying to break free from where I was bound. “Don’t waste your energy. I suggest you conserve your stre

Emily’s POV “Mr Stewart! Mrs Stewart! How are you doing?” I asked as they opened their eyes. They were perplexed but tacit. From the looks of it, this is not the first time they been in this situation. The blood on Mr Stewart’s head have coagulated into lumps. Mr Stewart’s POV When I opened my eyes, I was dazed. The last thing I remembered, was coming into my house and getting hit. I saw that the method used to tie me and Camilla were different from that used on others. The abductor is definitely is a professional. I looked around and saw Melissa. The look of desperation in her eyes already told the story. Melissa is a strong character to deal with. If Melissa is this desperate then, the situation is impregnable. Mrs Stewart’s POV Seeing Melissa here brought old memories back. It was though we have turned back the hand of time and time travelled to the past. The only difference is that Collete and Smith
KATE Story time 3
Mr Stewart’s POV “ Collete has just immigrated from Belgium with her parents. Her parents stays at New York. She opted to stay with her aunt which coincidentally resides in Winster county. I later learned she came in the same week as me. We all became inseparable. Then…” I was a little bit ashamed to continue because that would mean talking about my ex in the presence of my wife and my ex. Emily’s POV “Then…?” I asked. Confused as to why he stopped his story. Melissa’s POV “He does not want to acknowledge that we dated,” I said jealously. Am sure Camilla noticed, she just smiled. I was really frustrated by her attitude. “Why is she pretending?” I thought. She had always been like that. Always being the good person! Mrs Stewart’s POV “Am okay Charles, you can continue with your story…” Mr Stewart’s POV “Okay. Then, I asked Melissa out. She agreed we started dating. Back then, Collete was t
KATE Park avenue
Emily’s POV This is an interesting story indeed. I was really moved. Their lives were really interesting! “So why would Smith involve you in his schemes?” I asked innocently. Mrs Stewart’s POV “You may not know but four of us: Charles, Collete, Kennedy and myself worked for the agency. Back then we would travel back and forth. Later we adopted Emma. Then we had Stanley. Collete and Kennedy had Zainab.” The whole place became as quiet as a grave yard as Smith walked in and cleared his throat. Kate’s POV Since Smith killed my parents we have common ground to bear grudges against him. We have been waiting for hours now, yet no sign of Tanner. “Are you sure this will work?” I asked in disappointment. Agent Tom smiled and said “give it more time.” Smith’s POV I have already sent Tanner to finish off that snitch before we deal with the rest. I overheard everything that they were discussing. They missed some po
KATE Sins of the past
Melissa’s POV “Omar? Do I have to know to know the name?” I asked. Few seconds later I realized how foolish I sounded. Of course I have to remember the name. “You mean she is Collette’s daughter?” In that moment, I began to see the similarities between Kate and Collete. I was confused. Emily’s POV My only hope now is that we keep him busy until the police figure out his hideout. Putting the pieces together, I now realized his motives. He is a bitter man driven by revenge. Melissa’s POV I looked at Charles and Camilla, wondering how long they have known but kept it to themselves. “We just found out recently,” Camilla said. I was ashamed. I remember how badly I have treated Kate in the past. “If only I had known,” I regretted. Smith’s POV One of the things I hate most is being sentimental. “You are regretting it now?” I asked angrily. I saw Melissa’s face turn pale. I continued, “do
KATE Sins of the past 2
Melissa’s POV Now I realized that I lost my two sons to a monster. I don’t know what to do or say. I lost all hope of living. I succumbed to despair. Mr Stewart’s POV I am not mistaken, it must be the Max that was killed during the failed sting operation. My brows furrowed, I have lost too much blood. I don’t know how much longer I am going to last. I was slowly losing consciousness. “ Charles, I thought you are tougher than this,” he mocked. For what it’s worth, I have to fight to stay awake. I don’t want my two sons to turn out like this monster in front of me due to revenge. “You are wondering who Max was right?” “Well, let me enlighten you. The real reason Melissa broke up with you back then was because she was cheating on you with one guy from the law school. Later, she got pregnant and gave birth to Max. The guy dumped her. They had joint custody of Max until Melissa got married. She neglected her son. As
KATE Taking the bait
Chris’ POV I was already tired. I sat back, resting my back on the wall. This place is much more safe. Then I began to sweat profusely. My heart beat accelerated. I subconsciously know that danger was lurking around me. I stood up and moved to the extreme of the cell. Emma’s POV The officer just informed me that the bait has been taken. “Guys, we on !” I said excitedly. Stanley just rolled the sleeves of shirt, I know what is in his mind. Once Stanley starts fighting, he will never back down. I have never seen him this angry. “You have to calm down. If you’re not in your right mind; this operation will fail” I admonished him. Agent Tom’s POV “I told you, that it will surely work. We need to be careful not to sabotage the mission.” I looked at detective Vin, he was fuming with anger. “Vin I believe you understand what I mean. If we act rashly, there might be a shoot out. And none us wants that.”
KATE Caught
Smith’s POV Melissa was starting to regain consciousness. I have determined to end them today, even if it means my demise. However, I have prepared ship for my escape. Once am done with them, I will leave Winster county for good. Probably live off the grid for the rest of my life. “Camilla, you are obviously wondering what you did wrong? What you did wrong was protecting the son of my mortal enemy: Emma.” Mrs Stewart’s POV I don’t know how Emma is the son of Smith’s enemy. I only know that his parents died, then we adopted him. They were Charles best friend. “Emma’s father use to be my friend in college. But he was the one that spread rumors in school about me. He even narrated that he heard it from Melissa. You know, I dropped out of college because of that.” By this time, he was hitting his head slightly with his palm as though to forget something or recall something. His face was very dark. Then he asked me: “how com
