(ZAIN'S POV)
My private flight to arrive at the heartland of the Zulu nation was a success. The atmosphere in Durban was amazing. My agenda for the day was to book in a fancy hotel and run some other business related errands before I could focus on preparation for the Gala Dinner date.
My phone rang inside my pocket and I've reached it for answering the call. "Mr. Vilakazi, good day." I greeted respectfully.
"Mr. Radebe. How are you doing today?" he responds. "I am well Sir. How can I assist you with at this hour?" I asked.
"Perhaps, you are well aware that I will be hosting a big event at the Durban ICC this Friday. I needed to speak to you about the hijacked trucks that was meant to pass through Mozambique." he explains.
My attention to this call increased and I've spoken to the old man by saying." We managed to seize the value amount of cocaine, crystal meth and illegal guns before those trucks were caught by government authorities. "
Mr. Vilakazi was pleased with my feedback from the issue and he says in a happy mood. "This massive bombshell will surely crumble Mr. Gumede's legacy." I laughed in agreement with his statement and he further speaks to say "Continue the good work my son. Your money will be available within a few hours."
"Thank you for the call Mr. Vilakazi. " I said in conclusion to our phone call.
My day proceeded as I attended other matters in business. Once, my tasks for the day was complete, I head back to my hotel room for a refreshment.In a short period of time, I hear a gentle knock from my door. From the moment I discovered who was at my door, my mood changed for the better.
"My oh my oh my!! I surely missed seeing your face." I complimented and then leaned in for a good hug. She welcomes my hug with a beautiful smile and her voice speaks. "Well.... I am very happy to be here as your plus one Zee."
I kindly broke off the hug and officially invited her inside my personal space. Her beauty has never changed but simply blossomed over the years I've known her. Our bond goes back to our high school days. The pride and beauty of a Zulu queen is what she is. She is none other than Mr Vilakazi's daughter.
"So how's life treating you?" I kindly asked her in aim to hold a conversation. "My life has been smooth and wealthy Zee. How about you?" she softly spoke. "I've been well Thandeka." I said while looking at her face. She starts to walk to the kitchen for a drink and then asks if I needed anything. Even though we were in my hotel room, I've always liked how respectful Thandeka can be when it comes to treating a man.
"I bet right now you're married from how good you're behaving." I teased. She giggled in a humble way and she responds to me by saying "At this point, I don't think my type of man even exist. All the good man are either taken or they are broke." I laughed at her words and said "Looks like My best friend's standards are too high for today's men to earn and have victory for your heart." We both laugh and had a good time holding real conversations.
It was only a matter of time that I had to inform Thandeka over something serious which led her to listen closely with what I was about to tell her.
"There is a rookie by a name of Dean. I've never trusted his character from the day I met him. So, there is boring information that I've found out regarding him. What I mean about this is that my boys discovered that he plans to gift your father by providing arches of land as a token of getting some support from your father. "
"So from what you've mentioned, you think he is coming after the high position?" Thandeka responds as she drinks her refreshment. "Indeed." I confirmed. "So what is your plan.? Zee." she asked in interest.
From the look of her face, I was convinced that she is determined to stick by my side through all of the adventure. I opened my mouth to tell her "I want you to make sure that whatever proposal or reason this little boy has to impress your father, you challenge him until he's defeated."
Thandeka looks at me with bright eyes and thereafter giggles at my idea. "Don't give me that look Thandi." I sincerely said.
"Ohh Zee, I'm just simply impressed with how you're willing to increase your status within the Mafia Empire. You want my Dad's influence by using my presence?" she mentioned while she chuckles.
"Yes, and you will make that happen. Beautiful. You better block out Dean from securing such power. He is a man that roars like a lion cub. Imagine giving the boy so much meat in his early life. So, let's not spoil the boy with so much power that will crumble the whole system." I explained.
Thandeka's tipsy self continue to love this news which led her to ask a question. " Ah huh... so he uses his riches for gangsta related purposes under a leadership for his self image?? "
" Correct. My Zulu Queen. So, game strategy is making sure this kid, runs dry on influence which then makes his money become useless and the final touch is, making sure that his enemies have him for lunch to finish him off. " I stated with calm and confidence." Ohhh... Now I am excited for this to unfold!! Zee" Thandeka's words was said in excitement.
My eyes looks at her movement when she comes near to offer me another drink. I notice her style of clothing reminds me of my princess. Her summer dress was bright in colors which formed a beautiful pattern.
Thandeka dangerously stands close to my body while I maintain eye contact.
She opens her mouth to say "One thing you can relax about, is how amazing you and I look for the big night."She gave a sexy smile and I softly laughed in peace.
