ALEXANDERI sat in my office unable to concentrate on anything I tried doing, I kept reminiscing on when Aurora had caught me with Olive if only she had waited for an explanation then the situation won't have gotten this bad. Now she's being held hostage and I have no idea what to do.My phone's notification bell rang and I quickly checked if it was Aurora but it wasn't, I'm stupid to think she could escape that easily, I swiped my phone to unlock it and opened the unread message from a strange number. I noticed there was a video and reluctantly clicked on it, immediately it started to play my heart sank and I stared in horror and disbelief. Anger surged in my veins as I watched Aurora get beat up by a man behind a mask, once the video stopped I was fuming with rage, how could anyone ever think of hitting a woman in such a manner? The number called me and I picked it up immediately."Hope you enjoyed your present." The person said at the other end of the line with a sarcastic tone tha

ALEXANDERI received another message on my phone from a different number and quickly opens the message with a frown on my face. There was a video and I get reluctant to open it knowing what to expect but regardless I did so out of curiosity.My fists clenched in anger as I watched Aurora slip out of consciousness weakly with her face bruised. How dare they hit her to that extent? My chest felt tight as I turned my phone away from me unable to continue watching it as different emotions swerved in me.My phone vibrated in my hands and I quickly checked to see if it was the abductor who had called, I immediately answered the call placing the phone on my ear patiently waiting for him to speak."It's nice talking to you again, isn't it?" He asked but I remained silent for a while."Grumpy as always aren't you? If you keep that attitude up, sir might as well suffer I'm your behalf you know." He said already kissing me off."What is it that you want, you didn't call me to tell me this so spe

ALEXANDERI sat down for hours in my office still trying to come up with a solution as all that came to my mind was to involve the police but that was the last thing that should have come to mind. I picked up my phone on the desk letting out a deep sigh before calling the abductor's number to which he answered almost immediately."This is new, are you missing her already." He teased annoyingly but I wasn't in the mood to yell at him but instead strike a deal."I want us to talk," I told him while brushing my hair back with my fingers. I heard him snicker at the other end but wasn't fazed, I too was surprised that I was so desperate to call him just because of Aurora."And what is that if I may ask." He asked sarcastically as I frowned in disdain, I was never one to plead but here I am trying to negotiate and plead with this bastard yet I'm being laughed at."The deal, I can give you two percent of the shares and nothing more," I told him as there was a silent break between us and thun

ALEXANDER‘’ How dare they?’’ the steam coming out of the king’s head was uncontrollable on his way to pick up Aurora and could not follow any traffic law.On getting to the spot where Aurora was dropped he saw her blindfolded, rolling on the floor due to her hands being tied behind her back crying and yelling for help. He got down from his car in a hurry running toward her with so much anger and concerned ‘’ Oh God Aurora, are you okay’’ he said making his way towards the office cable that was used in tying her hands together, he pulled her closed and took off the blindfold. ‘’ Don’t worry you're safe now’’ he whispered into her ears and pulled her into his arms while she was drooling in tears. ‘’ Thank you’’ Aurora said wiping her tears, she got up dusted off the dirt on them er, and left him where he knelt. He was surprised and upset but knowing how things were before she got kidnapped he got up and ran after her. ‘’You don’t plan on walking all the way home, do you?’’ king as

King grab his keys, left the house, and drove to his parent's residence only to meet Max at the dining table comfortably eating the food his mum made, smiling mischievously. “Hi, mu,m” the king s said with a forced smile still staring at Max who acted all cool like nothing was going on. “Come and have a sit, thanks to your friend I get to see your face and feed you,” his mum said, patting his back and leading me to his chair. King’s dad could tell something was up the moment Max came in, King never brought home friends when he was still living with them and he wouldn’t have sent his friend over all by himself with all the security he installed lately. “So Max, tell me how you and King met” King’s dad decided to play along, watching his son play. It's cool means there is so much to him just coming for dinner. “Well we met through work, King is a workaholic and so am I so we are more of the same specie,” Max said with a wide smile still eating the food before him without raisi

AURORAOur lips touched and I quickly moved away from him, standing in silence was more awkward by the minute so I decided to continue what I was doing."That was awkward." Mr. King chuckled as I began to cut some onions not caring if I didn't know what I was doing. How could a grown-up woman not know how to make pasta? I felt disgraced as I felt his gaze on me."You know you shouldn't just stand and stare, do something." I pouted my lips as he glanced away and began helping me make the pasta."How can you not know how to make pasta?" He asked and I was almost shocked with my spit, I acted like I hadn't heard him as I chopped the veggies."You don't have a cook?" I asked randomly as I had noticed it."I cook myself." He answered and I smiled."That's cool." I commended."It's not nice that you don't know how to cook but I can teach you." He offered, I stared at him in shock at what he said, he didn't seem bothered about it as he put on his apron and I turned away hiding my blushing fa
