AnnaHe was a psychopath. That's the only conclusion I could draw from the way he acts. Leaning on the table, cleaning his gun, all while I felt weak and disorientedThe room felt tight, I don't know what date or time it was. It felt like weeks though. I haven't seen the sun in a while, the only decency he had given me was to be able to use the bathroom but I was followed by one of his workers. A lady. There was no escape route though, just a right cubicle. The lady was strong muscular and always had a baton. I felt weak whenever I was with her. Weak and useless. My throat was parched, and my tongue felt dry. I muttered, "Thirsty. I am thirsty."Alex gave me a look then he mockingly laughed, his amusement evident, and he replied, "Sorry, darling, I can't hear you."I took deep breaths, gathering my strength. "I said I am thirsty."He looked at me with a twisted grin, saying, "Okay... so? You do know I won't give you anything until you accept my deal.""Why?" I croaked, my voice

AnnaCool shadows wash over my sweaty skin, disguising me as I moved through the corners of the abandoned warehouse courtyard. The night sky was beautiful, stars danced and twinkled. I could have loved to enjoy something like this, happily lie under the stars and let the night air cleanse my tired body and overworked muscles. But unfortunately that was not it. I needed to escape. I do not know how much time I had left before Hades would notice that I was taking too long in the bathroom or when an alarm would sound. I scanned my surroundings of any sign of Alex or his guards. There was none. I sighed in relief before moving through the darkness again. Frogs sing in the distance as my feet crunch the sand. I had no idea where I was or where I was going, so I just followed the lamplights that illuminated the pathway ahead. The ominous shadows seemed to play tricks on my senses, making every rustle of leaves or distant creak an unsettling echo.As I cautiously advanced, the distant h

31DavisInside the car, windows opened as Anna felt claustrophobic. She rested her head on the head rest and I watched her sleep. My hands were shaking as I picked up the blanket to cover her. She had lost some weight. I felt bad that I was not able to find her on time. That she had to find me before I found her. I took a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves. Anna was here, and she was safe now. As I pulled out of the barn's vicinity, I decided to make a call to Cameron, my trusted detective."Cameron," I said as he picked up, "I need information on an Alex, the one involved with Annabel's kidnapping. I don't have much to go on, but she mentioned the name. There is no surname so just find any Alex related to us or our business."Cameron sighed on the other end, "Alex is a common name, but give me a moment. I'll see what I can find."While waiting for Cameron to gather information, I glanced at Anna, her face serene in sleep. I felt a mix of relief and frustration, grappling with

AnnaI stood under the warm water of the shower, allowing it to cleanse not only the physical dirt but also the emotional residue from what I had gone through. The water cascaded over my skin, creating a temporary place where I could release my pent-up emotions. I let myself cry, the tears merging with the running water, as if I could wash away the fear and helplessness I had felt. In the solitude of the bathroom, I faced the truth – Davis was on his way to confront Alex. That was the way he looked like, as of he was going to grab Alex by the throat and strangle him to death. I don't think he knew I know that he was in the mafia just yet because of the way he acted y telling me nothing. I wonder if I should tell him I know. My heart ached with gratitude and concern for him. The image of him leaving, his face determined and masked with a stoic expression, lingered in my mind. I couldn't shake off the worry, but I had to believe he would handle it. He always did. Like this marriag

Anna“The last person on the list of our top 5 best students is …?” Professor John drawled, creating the expected suspense amongst the students. I looked around and saw the smart students that haven’t been called fold their fists in silent prayer. And some juniors eagerly waiting as they stared at the professor like he was going to disappear. Calling the top 5 students is one of the most awaited parts of the convocation ceremony at West Coast University. Every student wished they were on the list. The top 5 students are given awards of outstanding excellence and the juniors would cheer them as they walked to the podium. Being on the top 5 list was the goal and motivation of every student during the final exam season.I never really cared about being on the list, not that I didn’t take my studies seriously but being on that list wasn’t thrilling to me, I’ve always pictured my mom sitting across the hall and waving at me while I wave my certificate to her but that was never going to hap

AnnaI was boiling in anger as I stared at the man in front of me, My very own father who was ready to sell me off or should I say sold me off to marriage for the sake of the same company he wrecked with his reckless gambling habit. He was seating so calmly sipping a cup of coffee, with no remorse, guilt, or even sympathy for me because of what he’s done.I walked around the cough he was seated and stood right in front of him.“Dad, I have a boyfriend and you know it. So hh…how did you … why did you go ahead to sign me off to a man I didn’t even know.” He just focuses on his coffee without giving me an answer.“Listen, Dad, I don’t care about whatever deal it is you signed’ am not gonna marry anybody aside from Henry”He stood up immediately after I mentioned Henry.“I told you to stop seeing that boy,” he said pointing his finger at me“I won’t stop Dad” I stated “Henry is my boyfriend and I love him” I can feel his anger building up and somehow I felt like annoying him the more.“

AnnaMy eyes grew double or should I say triple their normal size as I stared into the room rooted to a spot, it was as if a bucket of ice was poured over my head. Right on the bed was a naked blonde splayed sideways on the bed with her ass hanging in the air and Henry standing right behind her ramming his cock right into her with his hand on her waist making her arch her back ever lower. The clothes I gathered from the living room fell from my hand unconsciously.“Henry!!!!”I screamed at the top of my voice making him jump off the girl in shock, the action sent the girl flying to the other side of the bed as she tried to gather sheets to cover herself up.Henry looked at me with guilt in his eyes, he quickly picked up a boxer as I turned to leave, I barely got to the door before Henry ran toward me and grabbed my arm“Babe, listen I can explain this,” he said hastilyMy mouth fell open at what he said how can he possibly explain what I just saw?“You can explain??”I yell out “Then
