A Mistress For Aiden Creek chapter 51: A Desperate Situation
Aiden's POV “ You know what I'm trying to say, Kane, so don't pretend like I'm speaking Spanish here,” I urge him angrily.Kane chuckled. “Oh, you mean Daymon and Artemis? They are... somewhere. Let's just say they're enjoying themselves and my hospitality.”My anger boiled over, and I took a step forward, staying very close to him; our nose was almost touching. “You're going to regret this, and I will make sure you pay for this, Kane!”Kane sneered. “I doubt it, Aiden,” he replied to me, smiling wickedly. “You see, I have something you want. And I'm not going to give it up easily, not until I see the end of you.”I gritted my teeth. “What do you want, Kane?”Kane continues smiling wickedly. "Oh, now you want to offer me what I want after all these years? But I think she is just your arranged mistress, why are you now sacrificing everything to get her back?” Daymon asked me a series of questions.“It is none of your business, Daymon just state what you want from me and let the innoce

Kane's povI watched Aiden and his men leave my mansion in anger. I smiled and stared at them from the window.We never knew Daymon and Artemis were still alive. Here, I think they had escaped for Aiden's place.The issue I have on the ground now is how to find them. They are the only bate to get what I want from Aiden. At first, I thought he didn't love Artemis, but with the look in his eyes and how he could go the extra mile just to come to look for her, my brother had fallen so in love with her.“We need to get them as soon as possible before they escape or before Aiden finds them,” I said to my bodyguard Matteo.Matteo nodded, his expression serious. I know the kind of person he is; a series of dangerous thoughts would have been going through his head: “I agree with you, the boss; we can't let them slip through our fingers. Not now that we know how much Aiden wants them back, we can use them as his weakness”I turned away from the window, my mind filled with different strategies

So many pressures are on me, and my father has been complaining lately.I was sitting in the living room, feeling so weak and tired when my father's call came.“Hey dad” I answered his call.“What have you been doing Aiden?” My dad yelled from across the phone. “You left your two eyes open, and you watched the company stock some down. Do you even have an idea of how much we have lost?”I don't know how to explain the situation of things to him, even if I explain my father is more of a business person who believes you should not mix business with your personal feelings “I know, Dad. I'm sorry. It's just that a lot has been going on lately,” I tried to explain to him, feeling a mix of frustration and anger.“Going on you say? What is going on? Even if something is going on with you, should it always affect your bus

Aiden's POV I lay down on the hospital bed, looking up at the ceiling. Life has not been fair. I remember the previous day when I was rushed to the hospital by two able-bodied men from the beach.

Aiden's POVI 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. “So wher

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

A Mistress For Aiden Creek Chapter 159: The Stom
Aidan POVThe next few days after Kane's threat began to unroll in a whirlpool of events -- within each minute the quiet strain between Artemis and I. We had decided on attending the charity gala, together, for the display of unity and defiance against the haunting shadows of Hera and Kane. I stood in front of the mirror, while adjusting my tie, pondering upon what I may have done, or not done of late, to have the weight of expectation hanging upon me. The gala would be where the most influential people would congregate. If ever there was a time for Hera to strike, it would be here."Are you ready?" Artemis called from the other room. She sounded almost haughty with a mixture of excitement and nerves. "Almost," I replied, forcing a smile. I had to be his strength. It was his entry into, a very new and dangerous world-and I had to make sure that it felt like a support.I was silent for a moment when she came out. She was wearing this lacey red gown that molded her body all the right
A Mistress For Aiden Creek Chapter 158: not done
Artemis POVThe hallway, awash in chaos, found a frozen representation of me. Uncertainty had reduced the strength of my insides. Even as the adrenaline rush of Aidan's protection fueled my very being, my very fear of what would follow stopped my feet in their tracks. There were louder voices now: anger and indignation intermingled. I found myself rushing Aidan, heart pounding away. As I took the turn, he stood toe to-toe with various men, their faces illustrating how morally intense and confrontational the situation was. "Get lost," Aidan growled, barely above a whisper. "Aidan, you can’t just turn your back on this," replied one of the men, sharp-edged. He was the tallest, wearing a dark suit that announced authority. "Hera has powerful connections, and you have to be careful." "Careful?" Aidan scoffed, his temper flaring. "You think I’m afraid of some empty threats? I’ll handle this my way." I edged closer and heard snippets of their dialogue, which made my spine crawl at the

A Mistress For Aiden Creek Chapter 156: The Revelation
Artemis POVThe night air was cool under my feet as I stepped outside the garden, and everything was cast under a silvery glow by the moon. I could not shake the unnerving feeling pressing at my heart since dinner. Aidan's father and his expectations were hovering like a dark cloud above us, and I felt like a puppet in their great play. There was some magnetism in Aidan that drew me toward him, something I could not quite put a finger on. I found Aidan leaning back against a marble pillar, the phone still clutching in his hand. The air was thick with tension as my heart fluttered at the thought of going up to him. Did he feel it too? "Aidan?" I softly called, stepping closer. His head rose, and those piercing green eyes locked with mine. For a moment, everything ceased to exist outside this sphere that encapsulated both of us in limbo and yearning."Artemis," he said, his voice low and sultry, making me shiver. "What are you doing out here?""I needed some air," I swallowed, hoping
A Mistress For Aiden Creek Chapter 155: Shadows
Aidan POVThe night hung heavily as we drove back to my family's estate, enshrouded in tension. The showdown with Kane had jolted us, and I could feel the pall of uncertainty over Artemis. I glanced at her: her jaw was set in a determined line, though fear, I knew, lurked beneath the surface. "You okay?" I asked after I parked the car, breaking the silence. "Just trying to process everything," she answered, her voice steady, but her eyes were full of worry. "What do you think Kane meant? That we were in over our heads?""Don't know," I said, raking my fingers through my hair. "But we cannot allow him to scare us. We are stronger together, and we need to focus on Hera."As we stepped inside, it was like suffocation; the grand foyer resounded with the silence of empty echoes. I felt my father's wishes bearing down on me as his wildest expectations presented themselves. I had gone against him, and I was wise enough to know that my father would not bear it lightly.''Let's go talk to hi

Artemis POVI felt each whisper of conversation thrum through the room. Every eye seemed to be trained on me in anticipation of what would unfold next. I noticed that Aidan's jaw clenched, trying to gain control over his anxiety. Hera walked further forward into the party and her smile lit up the room like a bolt of electric tension.“Aidan, darling,” Hera said sweetly, slicing every air with her voice. “I didn’t expect to find you with someone who looks so… so… different from me.” Her eyes shot over to me, and as they did, the rush of anger and insecurity combined in me."Aidan, is this the woman you have chosen to be with? I only hope she understands what she is getting into," she continued mockingly.Aidan spoke with a low but firm voice, "Enough, Hera. You have no rights to be here.""Oh but I do," She moved closer. "See, I came here to remind everyone of that little agreement." She pulled out a document from her purse and waved it like a trophy. "This says you owe me, Aidan. And

A Mistress For Aiden Creek Chapter 152 Great Hope
Artemis POVThe next few days rolled into a blur of work calls, meetings, and strategizing: Aidan and I finally reached out to our closest friends, determined to spend anxiety-ridden hours seeking out enough people to build a network of support able to help us resist Hera's power. With every discussion, one more layer of the web unfolded before us, and, with the feeling of growing tension as we neared the time of confrontation, I could feel the strands beginning to coil tighter.One evening we had gathered in my apartment. The air buzzed with anticipation, and Aidan, Emily, and Ryan comprising the rest sat serious in the living room discussing what would be the next move with me."I know it's a risky affair," Aidan said in a very firm tone. "But we've got to confront Hera directly. If we let her decide the narrative, we'll never free ourselves from her dictation."Emily nodded with her brow knitted in thoughts. "But what if she tries to retaliate? She has connections in places that ca

Artemis POVNights like these trail, having turmoil and kept whispers that swung clouds around Aidan and me. Hera's oculus, I could feel her weight, and every time I spotted her, a shiver disturbed my bones."Are you alright?" Aidan asked, coming closer and lowering his voice."I am fine," I said while forcing a smile, "just trying to grapple with all of this."With his expression raining, he answered. "I know it's quite some taking in, but remember, we have each other."As the gala went on, I tried focusing on the talks we were having, but my mind would attach itself to the topic of threat on us, as Kane's echoed himself in me. Somehow, it all felt like we were walking on a tightrope, one misstep away from disaster."Let's get some air," Aidan said, finding my hand with his.I nodded, relieved to get a moment away from the crowd. Together we stepped out onto the balcony where the coolness of the night air felt revitalizing against my skin. The sounds coming from the gala disappeared
