“Please…I beg you, I can’t do anything else but this, I’ll find a way to repay you, I promise… Just please spare Aiden”What sounded like a hysterical laugh ended with a scorn from Jane.“Does that mean you’re choosing to pay with your life?… Don’t you get it? There’s no point begging. Juliet had to die because I knew she was in on it, even though she lied and pretended to be a saint, even when she made me take months of gun training, and even when she placed me instead of the real Jane to be Aiden's nanny. She claimed she did all that for my revenge but I knew, I've always known I'd kill her for what she did! So, you see… everyone involved dies, only then would it be fair!”Melissa seemed to have recovered from the shock and shouted.“Let me die instead, please!”“No!” Arya screamed with uncontrollable pain. “I would never let that happen! This has nothing to do with you-”“Shut your mouth, how can a mother be alive when her daughter dies? I’d hang myself if that should happen, I’
Arya's POVTechnically everyone here presence was closer to him than his supposed family. I can’t help but think I misjudged him when he said he had no family.Now I know he meant it, no one deserves to grow up in such conditions. With my fingers crossed I perched my ears to listen to the doctor’s announcement.“The surgery was a success. He didn't faint from excessive loss of blood but instead, exhaustion. He’ll be moved shortly, you'll be able to see him then but it'll take a while before he wakes up. His insomnia prevents him from sleeping so we induced him with something strong…”Nicklaus has insomnia? I never knew that, he always slept when we were together. “…Whoever is by his side when he wakes up should call the attention of a doctor. We can only verify his stability when he regains consciousness”.With that, the doctor left and I forgot how to move my feet, when I did remember, the first person I met was Klaus. “Nicklaus has insomnia?”I was staring at him for an answ
Arya’s hands moved to clasp her lips, what she held was both shocking and surprising. Her gaze couldn’t help darting at Nicklaus’s peaceful face. Ever since the incident, she was inclined to bring up Aiden but she couldn’t muster the courage and avoided the topics like the plague. She’d often help him dress his wound while he slept on the drugs and when he was awake she was gone, leaving the maids to prepare and deliver the meals.This was about the time when she usually dressed his wound but something else stole her attention. In her hands were photos of her and Aiden, they were taken when she lived with Aiden, it appeared to be dated back to that day at the hospital. The pictures were only taken from one location. ‘The balcony’It must’ve been taken by a drone or something of that kind, her thoughts were in shambles, he knew about Aiden since?But why didn’t he do anything? Nothing made sense to her anymore. Hours passed after this discovery and Arya stayed seated in his r
Median Hospital “Doctor No! Please, wait! Please...” Her eyes which sparkles like the stars now seemed lifeless as tears rolled down her cheeks, Arya pleaded once again with the doctor to save her mother. “I am sorry miss, without money we won’t be able to operate on her” Arya stood frozen to the ground, she knew it was ridiculous to ask for a free bone marrow surgery but what can she do in this desperate situation. As always life has been so cruel to her, she clenched her fist as the thought of going to ask her father for help flew through her mind, the thought alone enraged her, The very people that made life unbearable for her and her mother are the ones she is forced to ask for help?. “look at this poor girl with her physique she could be mistook for a super model at first glance”. A passer-by murmured “you’re right she looks like a fallen heiress, what a shame such a spec of gold is wasting away in the dust”. their bickering brings her back to reality but she’s unbothered
It was none other than Anna, Arya’s stepsister. “Mhmm, what’s that stench? who allowed this country bumpkin into this house?!” Anna said while gesticulating with her hands as though there was a fowl stench. Arya stopped in her tracks and shot Anna a murderous gaze, she flinched. “Why’re you giving me that nasty look? Did I say something wrong? You don’t belong here and that’s a fact! You and your sickly mother should stay where you belong and stop polluting perfectly clean air!” Anna retorted trying to get back her composure. smiling cynically Arya stated “you’re right, everyone should stay where they belong!.” Anna who was obviously taken aback didn’t expect Arya to be so compliant but then again she’s always been an easy pushover. Unaware that Arya’s words were dripping with sarcasm she put on a smug look and said mockingly.“Yes, seems you finally know your place, I don’t want to see you or your peasant of a mother anywhere close to this mansion or you’ll be thrown out. U
Arya’s pov I stood by the road waving and not long after a taxi pulled up front, it was a short but relaxing ride, I guess it’s the calm before the storm. Soon we arrived I could swear that my heart palpitation can be heard from miles away, I don’t know what awaits me and that terrified me even more. I braced myself and took slow strides into the building, maybe it’s because of my disarrayed thoughts earlier but now I’m suddenly aware of my surroundings, this place in one word “Exquisite” I blurted out my thought. Still lost in thoughts I heard a voice that zapped me back to reality. “Are you Miss Arya?” “Ah..yes, that’s me” I responded He was a middle aged man and from his looks he seems to fit Bella’s description of the manager. “Alright come with me”. We soon reached a well lit room filled with girls of all body sizes, heights and nature, but in all these differences they all looked exceptionally beautiful. They were all very busy picking out outfits and styling their hai
Nicklaus pov *Harrington Group* 8pm “Who dared to intercept our new arrivals?!” “This unimaginable boldness is intriguing!” I thought as I held the wine glass so tight I feared I might crush it. Standing in the pitch black room with only the moonlight reflecting through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows. My cold sharp eyes giving reference to the murderous aura emanating from me effortlessly. Taking interval sips from the glass while swirling the wine to the rhythm of my ire. “Whoever it is, better prays to God I don’t find em!”. Cause I swear no where on earth will be safe!.” *Door opens* “Nick, we’ve got him” klaus annouced “Who?” I growled with impatience. “Mr Thompson of the Huzari Clan”. Klaus answered watering my itching curiosity “That Perverted fool has the nerves to steal from me?!” I asked with a smirk others like to call the devil’s grin. “Putting fools like these in their place is my forte”. “Where is he?” I asked “He’s currently on his way to the Bouta
Arya’s point of view I almost voiced out my irritation at the way he roughly tugged the cloth off my eyes causing my hair to cascade down my shoulders.Already at the climax of my curiosity, I locked his gaze immediately the wrap left my eyes.This man...Is this the man that bought me? He’s.. he’s so handsome, Oh my gosh!.Saying I was spellbound would be an understatement! This man must be a Greek god like in the movies, with his exotic facial features there’s no doubt women swoon all over him, honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if men did too.For short, he’s the perfect description of your dream idol. From his sharp jawline and high nose bridge to his masculine broad shoulders and long slender legs all screaming perfection.Although I wouldn’t have pictured him for the type who buys girls at an auction especially with this stoic expression of his, plus he could get any woman he wants!Well, it’s as they say, you can’t judge a book by its cover, tsk.All these thoughts running throu
