Splash.
Sonia emerged from the tub, water cascading down her milky skin, following the contours of her voluptuous body.
'I must be the only woman who takes a cold shower!' she laughed at herself as she stepped out of the tub wrapping her body with a towel.
After leaving Liam, with a body filled with desire that couldn't be quenched, and disdaining touching herself when there was a perfect man waiting for her to rush to, just next door. She decided to cool off her desire, and the cold water worked perfectly without fail.
Sonia dried her body and hair before wearing another fresh night gown before making way to bed.
She wasn't sleepy at all. She was afraid that the moment she does, she might drag Liam into a perverted dream and waking up would be difficult for her. To chase away these lewd thoughts, she decided to work on something serious.
Hearing the question about death from Liam reminded her of something serious that she hasn't done yet. She didn't want that cute husband of hers to die, and there was only one way for him not to die; CIRCLE.
As long as she joins that club, he might be saved and so could she. With that hope in her, she took her tablet and searched for the email that she had once ignored but now could be the key to her happiness.
The link was still there and she clicked on it, praying that it was still working. It was normal for links to expire. She prayed for the best.
After clicking the link, she nervously watched as the page loaded and in seconds, she was directed to another site and relief washed over her.
After waiting for a few more seconds, a site appeared on the screen.
[Welcome, Sonia Sawyers. The CIRCLE has been waiting for your arrival!] and she received a warm and scary welcome.
How come these people knew that it was her? Did they even knew that she would end up coming to them?
Badum. Badum.
Her heart started pounding with nervousness rather than happiness. Dealing with such people was truly scary but she wasn't one to back out. Since she had been targeted and Talent was already part of them, she might as well grit her teeth and join.
She was the one desperate here. She would just see what they want from her and take it from there. With that determination anchoring her, she looked at the screen and more intriguing things continued happening.
[Sonia Sawyers, you have a choice whether to be part of the family or now. but before you make up your mind. How about we tell you what CIRCLE is all about?]
Sonia clicked on next to hear more.
[Thank you for your trust. CIRCLE is a club that have been in existence for many centuries and its aim from day one was to serve justice for the wronged souls.
There are so many people out there who are experiencing injustice for ridiculous reasons. Take for example, the so-called illegitimate children. They are just children born out of wedlock but why is it the society hates them that much?
Is it their fault that they are born? Rather than hating the parents who had an affair, all the hate is directed on the child. Why should they suffer because of that?
Another example comes from the children who gets swapped. Who is at fault?
A woman can't conceive and the blame in on her but has the man being checked as well
Just because you are a woman, if you succeed, they accuse you of sleeping with men to climb the ladder.
If you are a man who simply got lucky and found a loving woman who wants to care for you and the society sees that and label you a phoenix man and disregard you as a human being. Would that be fair to you?
When a victim of rape, murder and other incorrigible crimes doesn't get the justice he or she deserves. Who else would do that for her?]
The more she read, the more fired up she became. She could now understand the real goal of this club. It was a place where all wronged souls could go and get solace. There are so many things that in real life we can't justice for but through this club, it seems that anything is possible.
[We don't pride ourself in being called the most legit club. Anyone who is part of the CIRCLE is a family member. As long as justice is served, it doesn't matter what measures are done. It might sound a bit too much to others, but you surely do understand, right?]
It was as if whoever was typing and talking to her, knew her very well and her heart tightened thinking about a few things.
She took a deep breath and let out a chuckle.
'It's getting interesting!' her heart eased as she thought about that.
[You are not forced to do anything against your will. Here, you do whatever you want. Now that, we have shared a bit about what we do here, how about checking further to see the kind of benefits you will gain after joining us?]
Without giving her a chance to think about it, the screen changed and she found herself looking at something even more interesting.
[After joining officially, you will be given a link to an app which is easier to use. It's only accessible to you and no one else can see it,] this time there was a voice instead of typed words and as the voice narrated, Sonia's hands were busy.
She was attracted by the market place. In fact, it was the one thing that made her interested enough to remember that she once received an invitation from CIRCLE.
When she got to the market place, her eyes widened and her body trembled with joy as she confirmed what Talent told them the other day.
There were indeed a lot of good things there.
[I can see that you are interested in the market place. You truly have great insight. As you can see, we do have a special place where all members can get what they want as long as they have points to spare. As long as you are a member, you won't die easily under our watch. There are ….] the voice started promoting and Sonia checked everything with interest.
