Aiden's POV

I swallowed hard when my mom asked for Artemis who they both know as Hera. I have been praying since they entered that they would not ask of her, but my mother eventually did.

Martin looked at me, and I gave him a sign not to say anything, and he understood immediately.

“So how was your trip?” I asked to bury the question she asked.

“The trip went well. As you can see, I'm looking okay and smiling,” my mother replied, smiling the more at the. “I even got some things for you and Hera.”

“You have not answered your mother's questions_ my father intruded. “Where is Hera?”

Why does this man have to always intervene in matters that don't concern him? What should I say? I can't think straight; I don't know what to answer them with.

“Is something wrong?” My mother asked, she noticed the look on my face. “Did you guys have a fight?”

“If we fought, it would have been better. At least she wouldn't be in the danger she is right now” I said in my mind.

“No, Mom!” I answered.

    Aiden's POV Doctor Collins came over later that evening without my notice. I was surprised to see because the next appointment with him was supposed to be the following day. “But our next appointment is supposed to be tomorrow?”I demanded some explanation. “I invited him over,” my mother said. I don't seem to understand what is going on. What is my mother's plan with the doctor? “Yes she did,” The doctor confirmed. “Why?” I asked. “I noticed your mood the other time you were seated here, I saw you're so restless. That was why I called the doctor to come and check what's going” my Mother explained, and I was vexed. What does my being restless have to do with inviting the doctor over? What is she even thinking? “So what is the doctor here to do?” I asked my mother, giving her this cold look from those green eyes of mine. My mother already noticed my uncaring attitude. That was my normal way of behaving, so I don't know if I had changed or if I have become a softie that my mot

    Aiden's POV I woke up after some hours, staring at the ceiling.As I lay in bed, I couldn't wash off the feeling of unease, I was not feeling comfortable. My mother's presence in the house was suffocating me, and I needed to find a way to get her to leave. I knew she was only trying to take care of me, but I am a grown man, and I didn't need her constant hovering; I could always take care of myself like I used to without letting them know I was sick.I threw off the covers on my body and got out of bed, my head banging like a stone was being used to hit my head, but I still struggled to get up because I needed to be strong; I began pacing back and forth across my room. I needed to come up with a plan to get my mother to leave, and fast. If she doesn't leave, I can't save Artemis.I sent for Martin to come to my room, I needed him to do some particular things for me. He was the only one I could plan with at the moment because he was the most trusted of my men.Just then, there was a k

We saw it in the cabin and I had put it on since there are no clothes for me .“Yep!” I heard Daymon scream and I raised my head from his shoulder. “What's going on?” I asked, looking confused. “What happened?” “I just fixed this bucket, and it's back to normal,” he answered happily, like has just achieved something so meaningful.“Is that why you screamed?” I asked him, looking so surprised by his actions.“Yes, it's been a while. I tried to do it for some time, and I got it right at once,” he replied, smiling from ear to ear.I understood his feelings. He has been bl

    Artemis POV Suddenly, a figure emerged from the underbrush. It was a woman, dressed in hiking gear and carrying a backpack. She looked around cautiously, her eyes scanning the area.As soon as she saw us, she was frightened. She raised her hiking trails in a way that she wanted to defend herself with.“Who are you?” She asked us, looking so scared, her voice trembling with fear.Daymon and I exchanged a look, and without saying a word, we knew what we had to do. We slowly approached the woman, trying not to startle her.As we got closer, the woman turned towards us. Her eyes widened in the ear; she was startled, but then a look of relief washed over her face when she saw Artemis, but she still didn't trust us.“Who are you?” Daymon asked the middle-aged woman. “And how did you get here all by yourself?” “I should be asking you,” the woman replied.“Did you miss the road?” I asked her. “ I can see you are going hiking”“Yeah,” she finally answered, her fears kinda reduced. “I am goin

Even If you are in that kind of situation, would you Kee quiet?”I began to reason with what Daymon was saying but I still didn't see any reason why he should kill the woman. If he kills her now, I will still feel guilty; her blood will still be on my neck even if

    Artemis’ PovFirst, Aiden didn’t see me when he stepped into the bathroom thinking he had the privacy he probably wanted from the prying eyes of his friend in the open chamber, and probably mine, but he didn’t know he walked in on me.I was done cleaning the restroom when he entered, and I didn’t bother to disturb him, not until I heard him chant the name Hera twice in the phone with tensed voice, and now, his friend asked if I’m Hera.Who the heck is this Hera of a person that got almighty Aiden so pissed he couldn’t even check well before snarling at the name.“Hera?” I raised my brows, “I am—”“Artemis,” Aiden didn’t let me finish, “my wife to be.”The fella blinked twice. He seemed to realize he’d said the wrong thing at the wrong time, and he should have knocked before badging into someone else’s toilet.“And why are you donning such apparel?” the fella pointed out.Aiden called him Rusev earlier, so, I thought I should call him the same and ask him to let me be. I can’t stand ge

    Aiden’s PovI nearly pushed my finger’s to Rusev’s lips, but I didn’t because Artemis could be watching from the room. He’s not to be blamed anyways. No responsible man can skip such question, and if anyone should, it can never be Rusev.“She’s no more,” I masked the shock that braced my face with a sudden smile.Rusev raised his brows. I thought of blinking my eyes in quick signs but he seemed not ready to yield. Maybe because he must have ready of me in the dark web where I was portrayed as ruthless.Being ruthless might mean I might be so rash I could talk of my past even in the presence of my wife to be—that is if he understood Artemis’ place.“What happened to her?” he asked curiously, “is she dead?”I waited thoughtfully before I answered him. “Maybe, just not sure.”He nodded and turned once more to my mother’s picture. I knew why he’s so obsessed with my mom. She hid him and his siblings away during the dark days of the scandal that tossed his father’s life in the hands of the

    Author’s Pov“You don’t mean it,” the man said with a toothy smile. Kane raised his brows and gestured at the limo down the aisle. Some of his girls were there already, waiting for him. This time, Aiden picked interest in looking though he hadn’t wished to do such earlier. The scene was nothing far from what he had seen and done in the past. It was nothing tempting, so, he felt the fella might as well turn down the offer. “Nice girls you got there, but I’m not up for some pussy,” the man said with a shrug, “I’m out here hunting for something deeper and bigger than a ride with girls and a big guy.” Aiden chuckled. The men who check in often in the Creeks crib will never fall for such fantasies. It’s that common among them. Kane smiled. He seemed to understand just why the fella had to turn down his offer—Aiden was there and no one would like to hurt Aiden to favor Kane. “What if I introduce you to my new business plan and make you part of—”The man slung his ball bag across his

    Author’s PovAiden returned to the hall and met the noise and the fella nestled at his seat with his face riddled with disgust. His eyes met that of Kane who seemed eager to see either him or his masked lady returned.He made to his seat and tugged at Benny’s suit. Benny turned with his eyes red with tears that refused to spill through his eyelids.“You asked me to recite my poems to her,” Benny’s voice met Aiden’s ears in the midst of the laughter. Don Carlos was now seated, but his friends now resorted to one thing; mock and mimic the fella they thought mad and nothing else.“Sorry—” Aiden urged him to leave the seat with his eyes. Benny left the seat and Aiden sat. “You can go grab another seat over there.” Benny followed Aiden’s gesture. It was the tail of the table. Someone had just rose from there, and the person would surely return. That would be a second batch of trouble for Benny.“Okay,” Benny said and walked off from the hall.Artemis on the other hand was done with her m

    Artemis’ PovI could have asked Aiden where he was off to, but I chose to play nice and let him have his way. Besides, wherever he ought to have gone wouldn’t take much time, but I was wary of someone, the woman in mask.It’s been a game since we arrived at the table. It’s been a game from yesterday during the dance. Kane had his eyes on me like I had something of his he wished to reclaim, and the lady had her eyes on Aiden like he owed her, so, I couldn’t help my curiosity as it piqued.I looked up from my plate and saw Kane. First, he was a little too crafty. He’s shoved a word at Aiden at will, though he knew Aiden would say nothing to him. And when their father showed up, he accused Aiden of saying shit about the old man.Thanks for the Don’s personality. Well, that’s by the way. The problem now is Kane still has his eyes on my skin. It felt it sting like a scorpion’s sting. I needed Aiden so bad at this moment, but he wasn’t anywhere to be found.It was then that a broad hand gl

    Aiden’s PovI could tell she wanted to have a word with me, maybe to threaten me of what stunt she would pull up next, but to me, it was a close chance to pin her to the wall and snare into her face.I felt Kane’s eyes follow me as I left, but I was crafty enough to choose the south door, so no one would suspect I had gone to meet with Kane’s masked lady when I had mine.The south door was the one that led to the restroom, but he had a link to the north, a quick link at that. I charged through the link.Maybe finally, I’ll get my hands on that sickly whore. I was sure she was the one that dared dance with me last night in the mad party.Yes, she wasn’t the one I saw when we arrived at the mansion and saw Kane by his car. She might have switched with the second lady, or she was probably hidden in the car by the devil that brought her as one of his demons.Her footsteps echoed through the hall way, not just hers, though. That of the servants who used the same walkway did the same, but i

    Author’s PovThe day broke gracefully with the two lovers cuddled over each other in the massive bed of the chamber. Aiden’s eyes slowly popped open. He took a long breath and yawned with his left hand placed over his lips. Artemis on the other hand clung tightly to his chest, but Aiden slowly freed himself of her arms and rolled out of bed. the curtains in the room were big and thick enough to keep the son out for good and the grandfather clock in the room was at a distant corner.Aiden made to the window and pulled at the curtain but it was heavier than the regular ones he’s had to pull in other places he’d visited so far.He returned to the bedside and picked the remote on the bed drawer.“Good morning, darling.” Artemis greeted sleepily, her voice almost stuck withing her throat. She wriggled over and smiled a week smile at Aiden who answered her greetings with a grin and a nod. “Come back to bed—”Aiden chuckled and pressed the remote. The curtains shrugged to the other end of t

    Aiden’s PovI looked Artemis in the eyes. she was anxious—anxious to leave the hall and have her peace in a secluded room that is void of the sea of eyes settled on us. I could tell she’s most irritated by Kane’s presence, but the big bad thing is we can’t decline my father’s order.I took my hand off her waist, and with a reassuring smile, I took her hand and led her into the center of the hall. The hall formed a circle around us and watched us as we danced. I did my best to guide Artemis’ steps in the dance.She’s not fond of such classic dance as we ought to do, to entertain father and his old friends who wished to have us entertain the hall the way they did in their own days.I didn’t loot for the smile on their faces while we danced, I was focused on Artemis’ face. She seemed not to believe she’s the one in the center of the hall, our bodies stretched out in a dance that looked easy but required energy.“Come on, call in the ladies!” father ordered and the internal exit door popp

    Artemis’ PovEverything seized to exist for a moment. Silence stole the noise that had swallowed the room earlier and the hall seemed to melt into oblivion. It seemed it had not been recorded anything time in history that the massive door of the Creeks’ Hall was busted open amidst meeting.At this point, I could see the men with their cups raised were merely startled and expectant of whom it was that had dared to interrupt their meeting with such rascal attitude. But there was nothing to see as the door remained open and without trace of anyone.“Maybe, it’s the wind,” Aiden’s father brought the hall back to life with a mischievous smile on his face. But someone snapped from the distance and cleared his throat.“It’s definitely not the wind, sire,” Benny announced on his feet. We all turned to him, and like he liked the attention he’d dragged to himself, he tugged at his suit and pointed towards the door with a proud smile on his face. “It’s another son of the Creeks.”Everyone turne
