A Mistress For Aiden Creek Chapter 1 : Caught
ARTEMIS POV I eyed the golden watch on the table, pretending to be interested in something else while inching closer to the table. I knew it was wrong to steal but I couldn’t help it. I was hungry and I didn’t want to die.I imagined the funeral poster would read thus, ‘Artemis Vincent, died of hunger because she didn’t want to take a watch that some rich dude left behind.’I shook my head. Gosh, I needed therapy. Why would I even think that? I eyed the watch again while cunningly looking around. When I got right to the table, I snatched the watch and shoved it into my pocket.'You did it Artemis. You can buy burgers from Starbucks... you can....'“THIEF!!” Someone shrieked and I turned to see a huge oaf of a man charging right at me. He was dressed in a black suit and wore dark sunglasses. My survival instincts kicked in and I beelined for the open window.‘If they catch you, you are dead. Fucking run, legs.’I pumped my legs faster and easily slipped into the window and outside th

Aidan Creek?ARTEMIS POV Now where had I heard that name? I must have seen it in a newspaper somewhere. I couldn’t remember, but from what I gathered he was one the richest men in Florida. Why would he want a thief to be his mistress?“It sure seems like you must be over in your head. I ain’t marrying you, I’ll marry a pig first,” I said, huffing angrily.But Aidan stared at me for a full minute, creeping me out, then he finally nodded.“You’ll go to jail then, I’ll make sure you get it hard there. Trust me you don’t want to see what they’ll do to you there,” he said and I shot him a fierce glare. He was right. He had influence, I was a nobody. I would be molested there and forgotten.“Why won't you let me go?” I asked and he raised his brow. That elegant brow.“You stole my watch woman” he growled. I gave him a stubborn look. It took all my willpower not to poke out my tongue.“That watch is not one percent of your net worth sir. So just let me go” I said and he nodded.“Take her aw

ARTEMIS POV It took me almost a while to find where Aidan was. Daymon didn’t even tell me where to find him. Eventually, I wandered to the gardens and met him there waiting... probably. “Hi,” I said and he turned. How could someone look so hot and cruel at the same time? The afternoon breeze blew his dark hair, making him look more... handsome. “So here’s what I wanted to tell you before we meet my parents,” he started, going straight to the point and I shot him a glare. “Can’t you reply with ‘Hello’?” I retorted and his eyes darkened. I watched the light go out of them replaced by cold dangerous anger. “Watch how you talk to me,” he sneered. But I didn’t care. I wasn’t scared of anyone or anything, not even the icy chills of his voice. “And you don’t treat me like a piece of shit too,” I replied sharply. Aidan growled, he grabbed me and shoved me to a barn wall. “You don’t understand. You have to get this or I’ll lose all I have worked for to my brother,” he seethed and I sh

ARTEMIS POVThe rest of the weeks were just a blur of activities. Me, trying to keep up with the lies and Aidan being grumpy as ever. We even had to pretend for the camera. It wasn’t what I bargained for and being in front of stubborn paparazzi was beginning to tell on me. Every click of the camera gave me paranoia.Aidan had told me not to worry that it would still stop but I was getting wary. I was a small-town girl and wasn’t used to all this glamor and paparazzi. It wasn’t funny at all. The other part of this deal that made me uncomfortable was having to sleep on the same bed with Aidan. It wasn’t so before, I had my room but his father had insisted on it.I peeled my eyes open now watching Aidan sleeping. Even with my resentment I couldn’t help but admire how perfect he looked. In his sleep, I couldn’t find the cynical circles around his eyes. He looked young and at peace, and his hair. I had always wondered how they were so black, like midnight. They cascaded his face and I rea

ARTEMIS POVI was lost, stage five lost. I had no clue of anything. The large office with the tainted glass that showed an impressive view of the city suddenly felt like a cage. I was seated beside Aidan. Daymon stood behind us, I could tell he had a gun because the face-off going right here was scary and I didn’t even have a clue why Aidan brought me.“Mr Creek. I have come up with a proposal. One I hope you like,” he said and Aidan cocked his head to the side, making his dark hair fall and giving him those Greek rogue looks.“I don’t always like your proposals, Hernandez. Let’s see what’s on the plate,” He said and Hernandez's gaze rested on me.“Is that your wife?” He asked. Aidan didn’t look one bit bothered. He lounged in his chair and shrugged. “Not yet. We fuck a lot. Quite a lot, she should be pregnant by now. Don Carlo needs a grand heir,” he said and I blushed furiously. How was he able to say that without choking? Now that he mentioned it, silly images filled my head and

ARTEMIS POVI could barely sleep that night. I had kissed Aidan so hard and we had nearly even done it in that closet but suddenly he stopped and righted my clothes and told me “Let’s go”I had never had a male lover or boyfriend before because I was too busy rejecting them but I didn’t know what came over me when I kissed him. It was like I had been wanting it. But I hadn’t been wanting this, had I? I couldn’t recall. What changed?I had wrapped my legs around his waist and he had slammed me into a wall and I could feel his erection throbbing between my legs but he had stopped and asked if we could go.I was embarrassed after that but I didn’t regret kissing him. I wanted to kiss him again. His lips were intoxicating, I could still taste the cigar on them.I ran a hand down my leg as I stared at the mirror and imagined it was Aidan running a hand on my thigh.“Miss?” Someone said and I jumped. I covered my legs and turned. It was Daymon. “I was knocking and you didn’t responsibly I

ARTEMIS POVThe man in front of me looked so much like Aidan that it unnerved me. I smiled at him and extended a hand.“Artemis,” I said simply and he smiled. His green eyes were not as dark as Aidan’s but somewhat rougher.“Artemis, I like that. What goddess is she of again?” He asked and I stopped. Aidan had known that but he didn’t... maybe I should stop comparing the two brothers in my head.I smiled at him instead.“She’s the good of the moon, hunt, and wild animals,” I explained and his eyes lit up. “Yeah. I remembered that well. You know I never paid attention to Greek myth class,” he said and I chuckled. There was something off about him but I liked him anyway. He wasn’t as cynical as Aidan and knew when to crack a joke.Stop comparing Artemis.“So Artemis, why are you here?” He asked and I shrugged.“I came with your brother, Aidan I mean,” she said and Kane smiled.“Ohh I see...” he paused. “Do you like him?” he asked, catching me off guard. “I...I...I don’t”“Well I don’t,

ARTEMIS POVIf Aidan was avoiding me before then he was running from me now. For the first time, he had defiled his father’s orders and slept in his room. He brought a lady and throughout the night, I heard her moans and screams.Aidan didn’t even talk to me, take me anywhere, or ask if anything was up. He just walked past and minded his business.I was trying to act cool but it was hard—when the person you had fallen in love with was avoiding you like trash. His father had been happier, I was sure he didn’t notice his son wasn’t sleeping in the same room with his supposed wife.Aidan came out of the room immediately I stepped into the hall. Our eyes met and his hardened. I sighed. I wanted to apologize but my stubbornness won’t let me. Why should I even apologize?Aidan started to walk past and I did a cheery smile. “Good morning,” I said and he breezed past without a word. I turned to stare as he walked; he didn't even turn back once. He acted like I didn’t exist. I continued down

A Mistress For Aiden Creek Chapter 170: Love And Survival
Artemis' POVThe days in the old cabin had elongated into weeks, each one mindlessly running into the next, making it feel like we were losing track of time. The dense forest that surrounded us became both a sanctuary and a prison, offering protection from Kane's relentless pursuit while isolating us from the world we once knew, after all the life hack and the steady look out for Kane and his men, how can one remember what the real world actually looks like. In this enforced solitude, Daymon and I developed a routine, a delicate dance of survival and companionship.Each morning, the first light of dawn or will I say the first sun rays hits the cabin, which will obviously hit us so had forcing sleep out of our eyes, we had to wake up, nothing much to do just the survival routine but the direct sun rays won't let us get back to sleep. We would rise early. Daymon took it upon himself to teach me the essentials of survival. We'd venture into the forest, where he demonstrated how to identi
A Mistress For Aiden Creek Chapter 169: A Moment Of Weakness
Artemis' POVThe forest had a way of amplifying solitude. Each rustling leaf, every distant sign of wildlife, served as a reminder of our isolation, of how disconnected from the world we are. Daymon and I had been hiding in the cabin for what felt like an eternity, and it didn't seem to end. The days blending into nights in a continuous never seem to end cycle which was already draining me both mentally and physically even Daymond noticed . The constant threat of Kane's men loomed over us, turning even the simplest tasks into exercises done with absolute care and vigilance.One particularly cold evening, the wind bleed outside, rattling the windows and blowing through the cracks in the wooden walls. I sat by the fireplace, its warmth doing little to chase away the chill that had settled deep within me. The weight of our predicament pressed heavily on my shoulders, and an overwhelming sense of loneliness washed over me, total and general weakness flushed me, both weakness from the dail
A Mistress For Aiden Creek Chapter 168: Unspoken Tension
Artemis' POVThe days in the cabin blurred together, each one marked by a cycle of survival. These cycles never seemed to end, the time there was just static. Daymon and I fell into an unspoken rhythm, gathering firewood, rationing our limited supplies, and maintaining the routine of sleepless nights, for any signs of Kane's men. The forest felt so isolated. This isolation felt like both a blessing and a curse; it shielded us from immediate danger but also confined us to each other's company, which was not helping the unspoken tension between us.One evening, the sun was hitting on a different level , casting long shadows through the trees, I found myself sitting by the fireplace, the flickering flames offering the feeling of warmth and uncertain cozyness. Daymon was outside, ensuring our tracks remained concealed. The weight of our situation pressed heavily on my shoulders, and my thoughts drifted to Aiden. Guilt filled me like an empty vessel for doubting him, for allowing Kane to
A Mistress For Aiden Creek Chapter 167: Hiding In The Woods
Artemis & Daymon’s POVArtemis' POVThe darkness of the forest swallowed us whole as Daymon drove deeper into the unknown, the headlights barely cutting through the thick trees. My heart was still hammering in my chest, my breath uneven. Every nerve in my body remained on high alert, expecting gunshots to ring out at any moment, expecting Kane’s men to appear from the shadows and drag me back to that nightmare, shit hole!I stole a glance at Daymon. His hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, his jaw locked in determination. The way he maneuvered the car, every calculated turn, every sharp swerve, spoke volumes about his skill. I must admit, at this point I was beyond impressed. He had always been Aiden’s most trusted bodyguard, and now, he was my only chance at survival.“You okay?” His voice was rough, edged with concern, but he didn’t take his eyes off the road.I swallowed the lump in my throat. “I don’t know,” I admitted. “I don’t even know where we are.”Daymon pressed his foo

But I can't help but notice how strange kane’s guard got. Any corner of the house are guards looking and starring at me like I was some criminal or something. I could tell that something was really off about them cause they weren't all over me like this. It felt like they were monitoring me or keeping a close eye on me or even spying on me .

This made me have hope but I can't help but notice how off it all felt, I tried shaking the feelings away but for some reasons it all still feels weird.We sat together outside getting some fresh air. I was clouded with so many horrible thoughts like what if Artemis has given up on us and also think the other night was a mistake, what if he loves the idea of me leaving his house, what if he was awake while I was trying to leave so desperately, what if he is out there with some slut shitting himself. A lot of questions just kept bothering and I couldn't help myself. I think Kane noticed it, my uneasyness, frequent sigh , he even called my name some couple of times and I didn't hear it . Till he called again. “Artemis”Yes, so sorry Kane , I was…He interrupted, I know you were lost. Talk to me , what's going on in that head. I am always here to help, and I can't help you if I d
