Twist Of Fate: Three Little Miracles

“Get them overboard! Kill all of them! Their skulls shall be used to sail the ship forward!” Stab shouted with much viciousness. Who dares fights his lackeys? This dude because he is wealth had the guts to hire some soldiers to. His death certificate would soon be delivered.

In the face of the attack by dozen men, The G-5’s sneered and simultaneously took a step forward.

Boom!

With that single step forward, the earth shook as though there was an earthquake. The force the G-5 exerted on their stepped was a 50% comparison as to what an actual earthquake could cause in actual fact.

In a split seconds the lackeys let out agonized wails before they all went flying back smashing the floor and cars packed. The entire place became a disaster area.

As Stab gaped at the lackeys sprawled on the floor and screaming in agonizing pain, some whose hands were bent in a peculiar angle – a chill ran down Stab’s spine.

Then, Jake gave one of the lackey’s who had refused to give up and and had managed to infiltrate the circle the G-5 protected a slap. The slap was so ingenious.

Slap!

The force of the slap caused him to spin around in daze. The slap was so forceful that he could see stars. That alone confirmed the G-5 suspicious that their boss were not so ordinary as he seemed! He is an expert!

The lackey quickly snapped back to reality and retreated in trepidation. He took one last look at Jake before returning back to his vans.

Meanwhile, Stabs mouth was opened in a silent scream. At this point he smirked in annoyance. ‘He has touched the lion’s tail! He will pay!’ Then he flew the scene alongside the lackey’s who managed to stood up.

Afterwards, Jake entered his Red Ferrari car, same did his G-5 and drove off the scene.

Jake just kept on wearing an evil smile!.

Back at the military base, Diana couldn’t get over the whole incident that occured earlier. It kept replaying in her senses.

The gear in her mind kept on replaying it and turning like as she wondered what she should do in future if peradventure her kids turn out to the Jake’s children. He will have a right to then legally and she doesn’t want that. If she slipped up, she would be render lonely for life.

After a long period of brainstorming, Diana still had no idea what to do.

When I get to the bride I’ll definitely cross it!

Diana had always been an optimistic and tenacious woman. She lay on the bed and fell asleep shortly.

At that same time as the childrens room. The three rugrats were planning something smart and dangerous as small as they were….

Jennifer held her doll in her arms and leaned closer to Stoic and Legacy, and stared at the laptop monitor. They looked at the man being displayed on the monitor with the same expression ‘Must have been a lover boy!”

It was a picture of Jake and their mother, taken on their wedding day.

Stoic turned his head and glanced at his younger brother and sister and spoke thoughtfully ‘Mummy loved this despicable man gave him almost complete ownership in her companies, including Diana oil company; the most oil producing country. He cheated on mum with mum’s friend, and mum being pushed beyond her limit filed for a divorce from which consequentially lost everything as the courts rule that binds marriage demands – the wealthiest property gets shared equally or unevenly – ‘

‘Quite brilliant of you big brother’ Jennifer asserted and supported her chin with her hands ‘Deductively, I see mum got frustrated and vented her anger on drowning alcohols at a nightclub house where she most likely met with the president general and both had sex!.’

“Yes!” Stoic who was navigating racked his Brian and snapped his fingers and said ‘They were both drunk, an explanation as to why Daddy doesn’t remember the lady from that night. The only hint he has on finding her is the silver Ring with the initials K. O carved on it and mum on the other hand probably, or certainly on her way home met with an accident and it earned her a memory loss and woke up to a pregnancy and that’s us!’

Legacy hummed, and a hint of slyness flashed across the bottom of her eyes, “Since we have gotten this puzzle solved out! This will be as easy as Euclidean geometry!”

Jennifer was puzzled, ‘but how can we make this Jake Bernard go out of mummy’s life forever? and now he wants a DNA test to be done on all of us and if it’s positive, he has legal right to claim our custody.’

‘…. and he can easily fake the test results to be positive if it appears negative….. I’m very certain Mark is our father. The resemblance is striking enough!’ Stoic added thoughtfully.

‘I think we should start by funding out the friend, with whom Jake cheated on mum with….. That’s a perfect lead’ Legacy added and they all nodded in agreement.

Presently, Mark was at the mountain tops in the military base. A place that is very convenient for energy cultivation and spirit man training.

He was there sitting cross-legged meditating like a monk hoping he can get rid of the poison running through his veins.

He was now cultivating the divine healing mantra.

He exhaled deeply and inhaled deeply again. He then relaxed his body and his thoughts, cleared his thoughts off everything else and focused on the mantra. After combining his breathing with his celestial spirit, he felt a powerful spiritual force of energy surging within his body.

His body started radiating very hot smokes, his skin began to turn red. He was now sweating profusely as if drenched by rain. The energy traveled around his body to clean every part that constituted his body.

After a whole day of training the divine healing mantra, a technique used to purify oneself he finally opened his eyes and especially felt refreshed.

He had successfully expelled out all the impurities, toxins and poisons that ran through his veins. He was full of vitality now.

When bus training ended, he fell into a deep sleep at the spot. That very night to his aggravation stargazed…

Mark dreamt of fire, a pillar of fire sweeping through a desert landscape down to forest, scorching everything in front of it: trees, brush, shrieking people. Their bodies turned black as they crumbled away before the force of the flames, and over them all hung a red circle, hovering like an angel.

A scream cut through the smoke and shadow, snapping Mark out of his nightmares. His eyes flew open and he saw fire in front of him, bright and hot, and scrambled up, reaching for Heosphoros.

Sooner his heartbeat ebbed slowly. This fire wasn’t raging or out of control. It was contained, the smoke floating up toward the enormous roof of the cave he was in the mountain. It illuminated the space around it.

Before he crossed part with Diana, his sleeps was dreamless and blank, a dark ocean of nothingness. A painless oblivion. Just that his thoughts kept taunting him like in a dream about Benjamin Bernard. His brother who disappeared into thin air from prison.

Mark didn’t really gave a thought what his dreams lately were conveying but he sensed destruction.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

He was already on his feet when Richarlison greeted ‘Good morning sir!’ Mark didn’t respond, rather he darted out of the cave, while Richarlison followed him behind.

Mark need no more explanation, Richarlison was obviously the one who set up the fires. A loyal bodyguard and a friend indeed.

All through Marks military life, he had never met with anyone as loyal as Richarlison that he trusted him with his life, him that knows no trust.

As Mark walked down the mountain he kept wondering as to why Richarlison applied to be his bodyguard at the first place when he first came back from abroad where he walked as an assassin and mercenary for the government to get paid.

Richarlison’s mind who was following him behind flashed back to five years ago, when his fellow comrade who was two ranks above his and his superior took a bullet for him when they attacked a forest inhabited by some mafias that called themselves “Norsemen” . It was from that day he swore to protect his superior son in return of the favour, it was the least he could do. ‘i bet he doesn’t even know his real father – his biological parents – ‘ Richarlison said to himself unquestionably.

And his fiancee – something seemed of about her…. it is all too sudden, I need to keep a close eye on her by keeping her as my friend…..

Meanwhile, Hannah had also woken up, she was wondering why the president general didn’t return last night after he left.

Her phone chirped signifying a message had arrived, she glanced at it and saw a text from Jake.

“Hope you’ve found the ring?” It read.

Hannah hesitated to reply him when he considered that if she says no, Jake may get angry and never let her see her daughter again and that would destroy her. And if she replies with yes and can’t provide the ring, it would be another hell of trouble.

She finally resolutely texted “Not yet. Give me some time…” She sent.

She started to rack her brain all over again, since she couldn’t find the ring in his bedroom, she should start from somewhere else, probably get close to his most trusted confidant and get the information she needs. Then Richarlison came to her mind……

Despite anything to the contrary, the ring was still in possession of Diana, when she came to give the ring back to the president general few days back, though reluctantly, she found him unconscious and was dying…..
