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.

YOU ARE NOT IN POWER ANYMORE

Theodora was taking a massage from Sophie when the door of her personal chamber was opened with force. Sophie gasped, looking in that way to find Douglas striding inside.

She looked uncertainly at Theodora, who had her eyes closed and her head resting on the back of her seat.

"Sophie, would you please excuse us? I have an important matter to discuss with Lady Theodora."

Theodora was yet to open her eyes or make any movement, but by now Sophie knew better than ignoring Douglas Morgan's orders when it came to Theodora.

"Yes, My Lord!" She stood up, bowed her head then walked out of the chamber, closing the door behind her.

She warned the guards outside to keep their eyes open and not let anybody disturb their mistress.

Douglas came to stand beside Theodora. His face was set in a serious mould. He meant only business, but he couldn't overpower Theodora's influence at all.
