“I’m sorry I’m late.” I apologized as I sat down opposite Erica.
“It’s okay, I took the liberty of ordering. Hope you don’t mind.” Erica said and I nodded.
“Thank you. My lover didn’t really want me to leave because I am still recovering from pneumonia.” I said as she waved her hand.
“It’s okay. We should get to work; I have an engagement I can’t afford to miss.” Erica said as I nodded before I placed my laptop on the table.
Erica and I were trying to create a platform for Azrael to be able to communicate with his fans since he didn’t host book signings or fan meets. Of course, I had to use uncle Bob’s love to get him to make it an official announcement before meeting Erica.
The project would be paid for if selected the winner and the runners-up would get a chance to meet and spend a day with Azrael.
Erica wasn’t hopeful to be the winn

Erica had my hands handcuffed behind my back before she put on the television. I hated to admit it but she had carefully planned everything and no amount of miracle I could think of increased my chance of survival if shot. This wasn’t a time to be helpless; I needed to drop Erica’s guard down, enough to dial the police or anyone then have a conversation with her so they could understand the situation I was in. “Erica please may I have some water?” I asked as she stopped biting her nail. “Save that for your final moments.” She said as she waited patiently for the news to say something grand. “I really need water or I might die of dehydration before you kill me. I had some salty crackers when I came home and I haven’t taken a drink.” I requested before Erica sighed and walked away towards the kitchen. The moment she entered, I stood up and grabbed my phone. It was difficult doing things with my hand tied behind my back but I managed to separate

BenWhy did this explosion have to happen now of all time? I thought as I stood on the road that had quite the traffic.The police were trying to locate the attackers so I was in a long queue and three hours away from home when I can continue.I sighed in frustration. Leslie was home alone, recovering from a terrible flu and I was honestly worried because I’ve been restless since I came to work. That prickling feeling that something was wrong but when I called Leslie, he mentioned everything was fine.I picked up my phone to dial him but I ended up seeing three missed calls from him and a messy text.It’s an emergency, I will either be in the police station or at Azrael’s place. The address is here.I checked the time when Leslie had sent such a scary text and it was two hours ago. What the hell had he gotten himself into with that bad influence of a colleague that involved the police.

Azrael There was nothing new to the sensation of waking but the sensation of pain and sensitivity to light was something I wished never to experience again in my long shitty life. My eyes opened the first time and it took the annoying lights shining into my eyes for me to realize that I had almost died. I almost died from a gunshot because the cops were careless around a criminal simply because she was a woman. Leslie. I heard his voice; he was crying and apologizing. That dumb kid was always fond of getting into trouble but what happened wasn’t his fault. It was better me than him because if I hadn’t taken that shot, it would have surely hit a vital point. My instincts roared to protect him even at the cost of my own life. I closed my eyes again and when I opened it again; I was alone or I thought I was. “I’m impressed. I didn’t think you cared enough to take a bullet for some white kid.” I heard the annoying

Leslie I assisted Azrael into his new apartment and dropped him on the couch. It was my first time here but Azrael mentioned he’d been here once as punishment for missing his deadline and had to finish his book before the next one or Reina would have served his pinkie as an apology to the readers. Azrael was made to wear a sling around his shoulder and would have to be coming to the hospital time to time for therapy of his shoulder. In the past, it’d take months before he could function without the sling but we were hopeful in two weeks it would be off. “You should rest, I’ll cook something as a housewarming gift.” I said as Azrael glared at me. “There’s no need, I ordered something.” Azrael informed me. “You still need to live healthy and eat right. I also said that I’d take care of you until your shoulder heals so please cooperate with me.” I requested as Azrael scoffed. “Do you know how to shave?” He asked as I frow

It wasn’t a dream. Ben was really gone. I placed my hand on the space beside me before I closed my ears and sighed before I got up from the bed. It was rare for Ben and I to fight, there were times when he had to leave so we could cool down but this time was so much different than our previous fight. This time Ben looked tired of me and I felt numb watching him leave. I looked at the time, hardly shocked I was waking ten in the morning after sleeping so late in hopes Ben would change his mind and come back. I was still tired but I needed to leave for Azrael’s place. Today was his doctor’s appointment. The distance between the new house location to Azrael’s new place was far but it was closer to my workplace. I needed to buy a new phone soon because I had to be using Ben’s old phone until I bought a new one soon. The moment I arrived at Azrael’s place; he was about leaving. There was a car outside waiting for him and he smiled

It was good to be back to the smell of paper, coffee and everyone complaining. I was back to work even though Reina was against my resumption but it was better here with my mind preoccupied with work than the empty house I was becoming afraid of sleeping in when the lights go off. It’s been three weeks since Ben left and two weeks since I last saw Azrael especially after a heavy revelation like that. It amazed me how I didn’t turn insane with all the bad new breaking out now. It was reality and I could do nothing but accept the outcomes. “Welcome back!!!” The whole team shouted the moment I opened the door. Sven handed me a bouquet of flowers and I smiled as I accepted it. It was pretty mixture of various flowers and I perceived it before I smiled. “Thank you very much everyone.” I replied as Jade came close with a welcome back cake. “You’ve had your first creepy fan case; you grow up so fast.” Jade said and I chuckled then blew out th

I texted Ben to inform him of the company dinner tomorrow. We haven’t spoken on phone in three days and I was being hopeful he’d show up even if he didn’t come home. I wanted everyone to know that everything was alright. I laid on my back as I stared at the table filled with gifts from my office earlier today. I hadn’t opened it and I didn’t care to before I picked up the business card Leonard gave to me. “I want you to come and work for me.” Leonard said as I stared at him in surprise. “What?” I asked in disbelief. “I want you to come work for me as my personal assistant; I’ll pay you four times of whatever Passion is paying and if you’re not satisfied, the company will cover all major expenses from house bills to insurance policy.” Leonard said as I frowned. “Why?” I asked. “I’m sure there are a lot of people who will be excited to be your personal assistant or you can hire an android that you wouldn’t need to

AzraelI was finally dismissed from the high table. I picked up my phone to call Leslie because the crowd was much for me to locate him when I didn’t see him outside.His phone rang but there was no response. I tried again but it wasn’t going through while I searched around for Leslie.“Have you seen Leslie? An omega, albino this tall wearing a navy-blue suit with a unique design at the corner left of his jacket?” I asked one of the security men who stood by the door.I raised an image of Leslie and displayed it before they shook their head.Does that mean he hasn’t gone home yet?“Did you mention an omega?” A passer-by asked. “Albino and tall with long hair?”“Yes.” I replied as the man nodded.“Yeah he left with some man I think is his partner. Very tall, rich handsome fella with a limited version of a Spurs and Brooke wristwatch
