---------Back in the mansion,Alexander paced his office like a caged beast. Every minute that ticked by felt like an eternity. His mind raced with thoughts of Sophie. Not only did the conversation with her parents not gone well, and now he was facing another delima.He thought as he stared at the annoying men standing before him. Although it pleased him that they came when his thoughts had skyrocketed, now he just wanted to blow their fucking heads off.Sighing, Alex turned from Avanska to Rick. “So, you’re saying the higher-ups made a move already?” he asked Rick.“Yes, Boss!”“And I’m just hearing about this now, why?” he demanded.“Well…” Rick stared at him confusedly, tilting his head. “Because I just heard about it now,” he replied.Sighing, Alex clenched his fists. “You said we had an informant inside the military base. How come he&rsqu
****Alex stood still, immobilized by the rage within him. He couldn’t move for close to thirty minutes, his mind a chaotic storm. His face was twisted into a mask of fury and pain, his nostrils flared, and a low growl rumbled from deep in his chest. It was a sound filled with vengeance, a warning that a storm was coming, and it would bring destruction.His fists opened and closed, almost crushing the device in his hand with his grip. Every part of him radiated lethal intent. He would stop at nothing to find those responsible and make them pay. Alex wasn’t just angry; he was a force of nature, ready to bring hell on earth.He threw the machine to the ground, screaming at the top of his voice, the sound too animalistic to be called human. Without warning, he turned and stormed towards the stairs.Avanska and Rick moved out of the way; even the guards couldn't stand still. No one said anything until he disappeared through the flight of stairs.Avanska exhaled in relief, turning to Rick.
---Emily Rust had always known about the higher-ups' experiments—things beyond this world. She had read about them as a protocol for joining the mission, but this was the first time she was witnessing it firsthand.Although the man responsible for Sophie’s abduction was part of their military, something about his uniform seemed strange. No, it didn’t just seem strange; it was... She suddenly turned and met Daniel's eyes. In a silent exchange, he immediately stepped forward.“What is it?” he asked her.“Do you know this man?” Emily asked her husband, placing the device in front of him.Daniel glanced at the screen for a second and gasped, “Captain Mock?”“You know him?” Avanska asked.“Yes,” Daniel replied, taking the device from his wife. “We were both stationed in Sector 17.”“Please, English,” Rick prompted, not understandin
"I love you," I whispered, unable to contain my emotions, as I stared at Alexander Kova. My heart raced as I caught his attention."What?" Alexander, the second-in-command drug lord, asked in surprise."Oh... Nothing, sir. I was just practicing my lines," I lied, desperately trying to cover up the truth. The look he gave me earlier made it clear that he didn't want to hear those words from me, especially since I was just a child. "So, when is Natalia coming down?" I asked, attempting to shift the conversation and alleviate the awkwardness.Inside, I screamed, "I'm dying here. I need help." I couldn't believe I had fallen in love with my best friend's father. The butterflies in my stomach danced uncontrollably as I continued to gaze at him.Alexander Kova, a well-known Russian gangster based in Canada, was a mix of Russian and American descent. He was not only my college friend Natalie Kova's father but also a divorced man with two children. And to make matters worse, he despised child
My reaction to her father's presence left Nat utterly speechless and visibly shocked. "Sophie. Drooling? Ewww, that's so disgusting," she exclaimed in anger as she strode toward him."Yeah! So what? It's my drooling, not yours," I mumbled under my breath, my eyes fixed on the unfolding conversation between Nat and her father.I stood near the entrance of the room, utterly transfixed by the presence of this extraordinarily handsome man. "Oh my God! Have you ever laid eyes on such a breathtaking specimen?" I questioned myself, my heart racing. He stood tall, exuding an aura of masculinity with his muscular frame and long, neatly-tucked golden hair. His eyes gleamed like pure gold, his lips were finely sculpted, and his face bore a striking resemblance to Ares, the god of war. Even in his snug-fitting pants, it was unmistakably evident that he was well-endowed, and the mere thought of what that might entail... I couldn't help but gasp. "Seriously, is it permissible for an eighteen-yea
But.. “Nothing much, just the gangster family next door,” Father replied instead with a smug expression.“Bloody hell,” I gasped,“Sophie Language.” Motrher Yelled, turning to father with a glare, and he quickly cleared his throat or prtended to. “Sorry mom.” I said and turned to my father, “You mean to say there’s a real mafia leaving next door? Like he is our neighbor?” I questioned father with fascination. Obviously, I’ve only seen those gangsters like people on T.V, but to have one staying right next to me…. Oh Holy moly. I’ve always wanted to meet a real mafia… this might just be my luck.“Huh?” Father spat drawing aback,Sighing, “It’s a figure of speech Sophie, not the actual thing.” Mother corrected, staring … no more like still glaring at father.It clear she doesn’t want me to know… can’t blame her though, “Oh…” I turned to father with a disappointed glance, “Right, like those thing exist.” I sighed, standing up with my bag, “I should head upstairs then,” I said with a yaw
The next morning I decided to do a little work outside, since it was a weekend. I came out of my room with a tight short and mini-top. I found my parents on the dining table.“Looking sharp,” Dad said with a smile,“Morning Dad,” I greeted him,“Morning sweetheart,” he responded and continued with his tea,“Where are you going?” mom asked from the dining table,“Morning to you mom,”“Morning Love,” she smiled and turned serious, “but where are you going?” she asked again,“To work out.” I replied,“You never work out,” she said to me,“I have always worked out, mom. I just stopped when I came home,” I responded to her,“Well, I didn’t know that,” she said with a hurtful look,“They are a lot of things you don’t know about me mom. So don’t feel bad, you get to find out in no time,” I replied and Kissed both of them on the cheek, “see you later,” I said and zoomed out the front door.“Well, that’s disappointing,” Mrs Rust, grunted as she sat down with a slump,“No need to feel bad,” Dan
"Don't you dare use that tone with me, young lady? I'm your father, and I do not owe you any explanation," he snapped at her Instead, his eyes blazing with anger."Well, I wish you weren't, and I hate you! Ugh!" she yelled back, storming out of the house.He called after her, "Hey Natalie, get back here! Damn, that girl and her rebellious phase," he cursed under his breath.******I arrived home feeling furious. "Who grounds children at this age? Nat is not even a kid?" I questioned myself bitterly as I pushed the door open. "I mean, what's so wrong with working outside? I thought he was handsome, but with such an attitude, I'm starting to doubt my first impression of him." I let out a sigh and headed to the refrigerator, taking out a bottle of water. Just as I opened it, the doorbell rang.I turned, wondering who could be coming over. Opening the door, I found Nat standing outside, barefoot."Hi," she said with a shivering voice, "can I come in? I'm freezing out here.""Oh, yeah! Sor
