With a nod, Mark then sat down at the extreme of the bed, facing her. After a moment he shifted closer, and then raised his hands up to her cheek. He took a deep breath and looked up at her. Her eyes were full of uncertainty. An unfamiliar urge rose inside him: the urge to put his arms around her and tell her it was all right. He didn’t. In his experience, things were rarely all right. “Mark?,” she said, so softly that he had to lean forward to catch her words, “Will everything be alright? No.”"All will be fine....! Your kids will return back to you! I ensure you that!" Mark said then she put her hands on his. "You sure?" She said on an exhale of breath, almost in a teary tone."Yes!", Mark responded in assurance.Then Diana flew at him and hugged him tightly. ...."Oh baby! How it feels!" It had been one of her fantasy's. Hugging her this close and tightly passionately. Then they both disengaged.Their faces were only inches away from each other. She felt his breath against her
"Probably a memory issue..." Diana concluded.Meanwhile, Otani didn't succeed on getting the silver ring despite his work filled tactical efforts. Out of possible options he switched to plan B. However, he already knew specifically, where his mum was being held captive, he deduced from the video call that was made with the help of - Alongside six of his men occupying two red BMW, Oman droved Otani to the address he was given, the jungle district. They alighted from their car and they behold the sight of a very thick forest ahead, like the Amazon forest. This district was called the jungle district of Sterling city.Otani glanced around them and then his gaze rested on a stop sign. Underneath it a signboard was attached and it read "Danger ahead!""Jake must have been thoughtful to have a hideout in this unthinkable place!" He smirked."Com'on boys!" He ushered, let's proceed. His hideout is somewhere in this vicinity or deep down this jungle - " Otani urged his men as everyone's sur
There was a gap between the door and it's still.While standing by the door, they could hear someone making some noise - a noise they couldn't quite understand - Then, they waited with Bated breaths, getting ready to catch whoever is in there and maybe use him or her as a pawn to direct them to where Flora is and they'll get done with the rescue mission, but then a sense of bone chilling danger crept up to Oman's, causing the hair in his neck and arms to rise and stand. His instinct had kicked in.With no much time to waste, he kicked the door opened, his impact was so forceful that it startled the blindfolded Flora who was tied to a chair and a knife held against her throat. As the group swamped into the large room, Otani was shocked to see his mum in such a situation. She was literally on the brink of death, and infact, handshaking death "himself"."Drop your weapons!" Jake ordered, he sounded super serious with his voice exuding "obey or he kills her"Otani is here to rescue his m
"Get the cars ready! I'm going to bring my kids!" Jake ordered as Otani and Oman were dragged away. The two other men were spared."But sir...Sir.... Mark have his men posted around the government house!" His personal assistant objected."Don't worry! I gat a plan" Otani responded as he walked away, leaving his personal assistant astonished. "How does he manage to pull through all of this?" He wondered as he followed him closely."I hope the lackey's ensured Jason, the mega Island god of war did not find out about what had just happened?" Jake stopped at his footsteps and asked. He needed to be sure because If Jason finds out, it'd cause a loophole in his plans.Jason was Otani's father and Flora's ex husband....However, to fully gain his trust, he would burn down the ammunition building of sterling military base before he lets him launch his attacks. But how?Jason on the other hand had gotten pretty uncomfortable as he sensed something was off, but he couldn't quite figure it out
There was a peculiar atmosphere in the air, a mixture of tension and anticipation.Despite the gathering of grandwar masters, murmured conversations were everywhere. Diana caught snippets of the chatter as she approached the central field having heard the signal alarm as well.There was a plump man, the top grandwar master standing on the podium and addressing all military officers standing attentively before the podium. He was gesticulating angrily as he spoke, but no one seemed to be paying any attention or maybe, they were paying half attention as they were also focused on the how Mark and Flora reunited passionately.The next moment, Mark cleared his throat when caught sight of Diana. He swept his gaze around and he made a startled face and then spoke to his mum standing close him in a low voice, excusing himself."Get my mum in and make sure she is well!" He ordered one of the medical officers standing by as he excused himself. He went over to where Diana stood.. He was standin
Mark is usually very pretentious of his own good, so, naturally, and as usual, he would deny something as such but he couldn't - He only Coughed! - "Just came to check up on you as you couldn't came to check up on your mother... And yea, I understand why. You care for her much more than you do for me!" Flora again broke the silence. As she walked all over the room."I'm sorry mum, she is going through alot and I need to be by her side.... Her ex-husband has just legally taken her Triplets away from her..." Mark explained and then seized the opportunity to backlash his mum for abandoning him."She cares for them... Unlike some people I know...." He added as he leaned over to Diana who was changing her sleeping posture. He thought something had gone wrong with her or unsettled her - that explains how deep he cares for her -Flora was sensitive and she knew Mark was getting at her with what he said. It was indeed wrong for her to have left him all alone..she failed. Even his dad failed
Diana was a only a few metres away from the villa when an officer approached her and saluted her, subsequently giving her some papers. It was met for the president general and since she was now his vice personal assistant, she could handle it.As she flipped the papers , she heard someone call her name from behind. She turned and surprisingly it was Flora. The president generals mother."Hi!!!!" She said with a forced smile. She didn't like Diana from the onset because the love she ought to be getting from her son were all going straight to her or atmost being shared between the both of them.Yes, she was that kind of mother..."Hi, Good evening ma'am!" Diana greeted respectfully, even though Flora ought to be the one to greet her.In the military base, age is just a number... Even if you're 70, it's your duty to obey your superior even if he or she is 10 years old."How are you? " Flora inquired,Gradually she successfully initiated a conversation with Diana and it was going well. A
Mark began to speak into the microphone,"We've encountered a huge loss in our ammunition sector just two days before we wage a war against the Mega Island military...and that puts us at a great disadvantage".. he cleared his throat, After a moment of dreadful silence and then continued."And as we speak, they may lunch their attack on us anytime soon. We need to be prepared for the worse to happen...", As he spoke, no one dared make a noise. There was a graveyard silence as everyone listened attentively with fear gripping their hearts.Then he continued.. "We're all aware that this ammunition building that was burnt down house all the sterling city military ammunition and it costed sterling city government billions of dollars, however, as the president general I'll be held responsible and I'm ready to face all the necessary panels...." everyone could see the hard look in his eyes as he turned to face the grand war king and grandwar masters. Then he cleared his throat before he conti
