[Tobias’s Bedroom]
Seraphina had just finished wearing her dress. She stood in front of the mirror, staring at herself while still relishing about last night’s sex.
At the same time, she’s thinking of the achievement she’s about to go celebrate tonight at the hall.
Her skin is full of hickeys from Tobias’s relentless kissing and sucking, and she doesn’t even want to cover them up, reason she choose a backless dress tonight.
She felt someone behind, and the strong oud scent invaded her breathings as her low-waist zip was pulled up, and a chin rested fully on her shoulder.
She looked in the mirror, and their eyes met.
His arms snaked around her waist. He’s wearing his suit already too.
A white suit since she loves him in white.
“You ready?” He whispered.
“Never been more ready.” She smiled.
She faced him, and he interlocked their fingers, kissing their conjoined knuckles as they walked out.
[Yesterday]
“You have a visitor, sir.”
“A visitor?” Tobias frowned.
“Uncle Will.” Yalda said.
Instantly, Uncle Will entered, but before Tobias could say a word, the man fell on his knees, crying.
Tobias stopped moving.
“I’ve done a lot of damage by birthing Vince alone, and I’ve done evil by telling Dean to marry Seraphina for Vince’s sake, and I’m not planning to wreck more havoc, but now he’s back, and he poisoned a kid at my restaurant just to force me to collude with him and set you up.”
“Explain more clearly.” Tobias grunted.
Will looked up.
“He wants me to give him and his cohorts a chance to enter this Oddsion tommorow.”
“Tommorow?” Tobias chuckled. “He sure knows how to die very perfectly, cos I planned a party of blood tommorow already, cos of him.”
Uncle Will sat on the floor.
“You’ll let them inside this place tommorow, and leave the rest to us.” Tobias ordered.
“What about the poisoned kid?” Uncle Will asked.
“Yalda will take care of it.” Tobias replied readily.
“What do I have to do?” Uncle Will asked readily too.
Tobias smiled.
[Present Time]
As Tobias left the room with Seraphina, his phone dinged.
A text from Uncle Will.
• I took the wine tray to the core already, and I told Vince and his cohorts it was poisoned, but it’s not. By now, Vince is probably planting his bombs around here.
Tobias pocketed his phone and looked at Seraphina, exchanging eyes signal with her.
Their lift touched the ground floor, and they entered the hall together.
Their entrance made all noise cease, and all attention clustered.
Palms began jamming together as they made their entrance with the biggest smiles they could conjure.
The middle of the hall received them, and the crowd gave them attention.
“Tonight was originally designed to celebrate the achievements of I and my girlfriend so far,” Tobias spoke, still not letting go of her fingers. “I was announced as the richest man in this country just this morning too, and that makes our celebration five, but there’ll always be snakes,”
The silence deepened.
“And that’s why y’all have to vacate this hall in five minutes before the bonds go off.” He added.
Gasps broke.
“Yeah, there are bombs in this building, planted by Vince St. Graves, the wanted criminal.” Seraphina said.
They didn’t even let her land.
The guests began running out immediately, bursting and knocking into each other, falling and rising again, struggling to escape death.
Seraphina and Tobias exchanged another glance, and the voice of Zaine hit their earbuds from the core.
“They’re at the last washroom of the hall! Careful, they have weapons!”
They moved immediately, then Yalda led the rest of the Odds after them.
