K-Brothers And The Little Maid

“Here are the admission letters, Sir” Orlando, the boys’ manager, announced , placing the documents on the table. There were four of them, each belonging to each of the brothers.

Kyler Shal’kan, Kash Shal’kan, Kenver Shal’kan, And Kael Shal’kan were boldly imprinted on each envelope. Those were their names.

“Congratulations Sir, CamBridge High is one of the best so far” He added and smiled softly, hoping he had been able to get the job perfectly done as Kyler asked. It had been a simple but hard job which was for him to find one of the best schools for the brothers but seeing the indifferent look on Kyler’s face, it was hard to tell what was going on in his mind.

Kyler picked one of the envelopes and stared blankly at it. “You may leave” He ordered and Orlando bowed before walking out. Once again, he was left alone in the office. He had arrived at the company for the party but he decided to stay in.

He heaved in relief and dropped the envelope before going to the window where he stood to stare outside. For years now, he and his brothers have been studying at home. They had a special class and the best tutors but recently, his brothers objected to it.

He had been able to keep them in with the help of their late father’s officials who are loyal and submissive to him as the first brother. They were more like guardians and helpers.

Kyler knew he couldn’t be of much protection to them but he still had to try and when they all objected to studying at home with reasons that they all wanted to study in a school environment along with other kids, he had no choice but to go for it.

They didn’t have friends, no families to look after them, just the loyal officials who worked for their father when he was alive, and with the way things went, Kyler needed no one to tell him that he had to shield his brothers from the world, he had to be a protector.

Their father was a rich Lord and after he died, the brothers had everything to themselves as his children. Sometimes the other brothers nagged about Kyler being so strict and cold but they don’t know either. They don’t know what made him this way and for some reasons, he prayed they never knew.

There were lots of secrets surrounding their birth but Kyler could only let them know a few which being rich orphans was among. Sometimes they even forget the fact that they had no parents. Who the fuck cared?

He pulled out a stick of cigarette and lit it, ready to smoke and get his nerves chilled. This was what he did to distract and relieve himself.

“Sir, there’s a lady here to see you” Madagascar, his chief guard announced but Kyler didn’t respond. He puffed out smoke from his mouth and nostrils instead. Madagascar knowing his boss as someone who doesn’t talk much decided to go straight to the point. He knew better than to give a piece of vague information.

“She introduced herself as Secretary Kim Alhandro” He continued but was surprised when Kyler paused smoking and turned to glance at him. He scoffed then looked away.

Kim Alhandro. The name kept resounding in Kyler’s head. It was a long time he heard such a name but not long enough to be forgotten. Who the hell let her in? The nerves she had to pull up at where he was. Just the nerves.

“Am sorry Sir but she didn’t leave when we asked her to. She ran all the way here and insists on seeing you”

“Kick her out of here” Kyler stated coldly not being able to comprehend why she had suddenly shown up. What the hell was she doing here? Who let her in?

“Kyler…” The faint voice broke in and even after years, he still recognized it.

“Kyler…” She called out again but this time, Kyler turned just before she could say another word. There was no way he was letting her speak. There was no way he was letting her lie to him again.

“Don’t fucking speak” He thundered, clenching his fists. All seemed to have been lost at the moment and was suddenly replaced with anger and hatred. The type that tore at his lungs, plucked at his nerves until he wanted to twist her neck off.

Kim dropped her head quietly while he turned back angrily to face the window. Kim was still the same and hadn’t changed much over the years. She was still the blonde-haired girl he once knew and grew up with until she disappeared. Until they said she was dead but here she was, standing right inside his office.

“Take her out of here and make sure she doesn’t leave her footprints” Kyler ordered at once as he couldn’t bear seeing her the next minute. His hands were itching to get a hold of her, to strangle her to death and that was what he was trying to prevent.

“Kyler please, please you can’t kick me out, there’s something…” Kim cried and kept hitting Madagascar who had started dragging her out of the room. ” They’re hunting me. They’re… She’s gonna come for you, for… for all of us ”

Angrily, Kyler turned at once and matched towards her, making her flinch. “I can only listen to you when you’re screaming”

He grabbed her neck with both hands, pressing it tightly till the file she held fell off her hand as she coughed out blood.

“If I were you, Kim, I’ll leave and never return” Kyler warned and pushed her against the wall. She fell to the floor and began coughing and gasping for air. “Take her out of here if you don’t wanna carry her corpse”

“Kyler… please… please you need to… to hear me out” She begged in tears which only infuriated him.

“You need to leave” Madagascar advised but it didn’t do any good as she kept fighting to break free from his grip.

“Kyler… Kyler, please listen to me. Kyler…”

Without sparing her a glance, Kyler stalked over to the only drawer in the room and encoded it. It opened immediately and he pulled out a gun and aimed at her. “I swear I’ll blow your brains off Kim. I’ll give you ten seconds to leave”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

She shook her head negatively and whimpered. She had expected this but not when she hadn’t passed the information to him. How does she make him listen? The look in his eyes was deadly, it only made sizzles run down her spine.

“Please don’t do this Kyler, please… please…”

She had left them years back without any words. She left when Kyler needed her the most. She left when he thought they were family but growing over the years, he realized she wasn’t and hadn’t been part of the family as he had thought. She was a traitor and killing was what he did to people like her.

“Three, two…” He counted and dropped my finger on the trigger ready to fire. He didn’t make a mistake when he said he was going to blow off her brains.

“She’s alive. She… She… your mother, she’s alive Kyler” On hearing that, he released his finger from the trigger as his hand suddenly went weak. What did she just say? Did he hear correctly or was he just hearing things?

“It’s… it’s true. I came to… to warn you. She’s back, she’s alive and she’s coming for all of you. For all of us Kyler”

“Don’t fucking lie to me!” Kyler growled, breathing heavily. What the heck was she talking about? Whose mother? He just couldn’t understand all that she was saying.

“Kyler, it’s the truth. It’s… it’s the truth” She affirmed, nodding her head repeatedly as tears rolled down her cheeks. She couldn’t believe he had almost pulled the trigger. That he had almost killed her.

What she had just said didn’t sound new to Kyler as he always had that feeling that their mother was alive somewhere. It was just a feeling no one ever confirmed until now.

“You’re lying. She is dead” Kyler countered wishing it was true.

“No… she’s alive, Kyler. I… I can tell you where she… I can show you. She’s back in full flesh to take back everything Including your lives”

Kyler shook his head flippantly and Kim stared back surprised. Was he not believing her? Of all the reactions she had expected from him, she had not expected him not to take this seriously.

” She’s alive, you need to believe me! ”

“I said she’s DEAD!” He growled and shot the air which made her shiver. She clamped her mouth shut and didn’t utter any more words.

Deep inside, Kyler could feel the anger and hatred he had been bottling up for years now. To him, their mother was dead long ago as they were made to believe and they were motherless. They were orphans.

“And if she’s alive, she’s better dig her grave cause I’ll kill her this time”
