A MAZE OF GREED

"Don't stop, Ruth. Run, run!" Thea yelled again while moving her hands. Before Edwin turned her around and got a chance to see her face, Ruth pulled her hand up and jabbed his nose. Edwin wailed in pain as he felt his nose go numb with pain. Instinctively he freed Ruth to cover his nose with both hands. He bent over a little as his eyes watered because of pain. "You!" He hissed in anger as he leapt again for Ruth. But she managed to run before he could catch her again. Her head turned around in shock when Edwin's hand tore her dress when he tried to grab her. It also surprised Edwin as he had not intended for this to happen. He looked up from the piece of cloth in his hand to see gorgeous hazel eyes. He stood rooted to his spot as his mind went blank. Ruth managed to get out of the property and ran with Thea without looking back. The guard came panting, but Edwin didn't notice him as his eyes were still trained on the gap in the wall, through which Ruth escaped. He slowly looked at the brown fabric in his hand, and the image of those alluring hazel eyes flashed in his mind. He clutched the fabric tightly in his hand, and the word left his lips in a whisper.

WHO COULD IT BE?

Darius was resting in the room, lost in his thoughts when Hilton knocked on the door. Darius blinked before he turned his head to see Hilton in the door.

"Mr Hilton! Please come inside." Darius sat straight, pulling his legs closer to him.

"Have I disturbed you?"

"No, no Mr Hilton. Come."

Hilton sat on the edge of the bed, facing Darius. He noticed how Darius's face looked calm.

"What were you thinking?" He asked.

Darius leaned back on the headrest, crossing his arms over his chest. "It feels good to finally get back the old life!"

Darius had to spend weeks, laying in bed like a dead man. It took a lot of effort to put into that act. Now that he could move and speak, he felt better.

Hilton nodded in understanding. "You did a good job though. I wasn't in a favour of your idea of fooling the world but while in Kinsville, I observed a few things and realised that it was best that you could do then."

"And what have you observed?" Darius asked with interest.
