Thanatos' pov

I adjusted Davis's uniform, I just helped him (Davis) changed into a new uniform.

Looking at him is just as if I'm staring at my five years old self, he's just as handsome as I was.

"Come on, let's go tell momma we're leaving" I said.

"Hm" he nodded in agreement.

He grabbed my pinky finger and we headed to Jasmine's room. My phone ran and I reached for it, I saw it's my assistant calling.

"June!" I answered the call.

"Good morning, Mr O'Briens..." she greeted and paused.

I simply hummed and nodded in response, temporarily forgetting she can't see me.

"... I called to remind you about the meeting this morning" she said.

"Alright.. remind the team again, it's 9am and tardiness is not allowed"

"Yes, sir"

"Anyone who's late, should consider themselves fired!" I sounded bossy.. but I don't care, that's why I'm the boss.

"Yes, Mr O'Briens"

I realized we've arrived outside Jasmine's room, I hanged up and shoved the phone back in my pocket.

Davis already pushed the door open, w

    Jasmine pov"Thana...." I cut myself off when I discovered he's still in his meeting.D*mn! His meetings are always long and f**king boring, a meeting that started at 9am, is still on.He turned towards me and took in my outfit, he frowned slightly."Where are you going all dressed up?" He asked.Isn't he in a meeting? Why is he talking to me?"Baby?""Out" I simply replied."Wait for me, I'll be done soon" he said.I gave him a weird stare. Like seriously he wants me to wait until his meeting is over? "I can't, I have an appointment" I replied and headed out before he could stop me.I pushed the door open and stepped out."Mrs O'Briens!"I flinched back when I heard this voice, though it's a familiar voice.. but it still gave me a fright. "Peter, what are you doing here? Your boss called for you?" I asked.My hand placed on my chest.. as I tried to calm myself down. "Yes, ma'am, he said I should drop you off wherever you're going"I narrowed my eyes."I just left Thanatos inside,

    Jasmine's pov She's a very magnanimous woman, but sadly she doesn't know who she is.I remembered when we first met... #flash_back_2017_february_20thI had just got back from grocery shopping, when I suddenly remembered I forgot my purse with my last few cash.A tired and frustrated groan left my mouth, when I stared outside...I lifted my head and stared at the sky.The sun is shining very brightly outside. I was happy I had escaped the sun, but now I have to walk under it again.Walking under the scorching sun isn't something I enjoy at all, it's always gives me an internal heat.. and makes me sweat profusely.Especially now that I'm pregnant.With sigh, I stepped out of my apartment.. or Arthur's apartment rather.I sluggishly walked a few poles away from my place, then arrived at a main road.Just when I was about to hail a cab, someone tapped my shoulder and I turned back.A woman who seem to be in her early forties smiled at me."Good afternoon, ma'am" I greeted her, returning

    Adele's pov Mike's kitchen...."... thanks for your patronage" I said to a customer as he exit the restaurant.A tired grunt left my mouth and I grimace, when my eyes landed on the table the customer just vacated. There wasn't any rush today at the restaurant, but I'm d*mn tired and sleepy.. after all, I haven't been getting enough sleep since Davis gave me sleepless nights.I would have loved to stay at home and sleep to my heart content, but that wouldn't look good.. I might lose my job for that.My legs groggily moved towards the table, to clear the plates. "Adele!" Elvis called me.I lifted my head and saw him approaching me, he looked serious as though I've committed an unforgivable sin."Elvis....""The customer that just left, he stole from us" he said."What?!" I exclaimed.My eyebrows furrowed."How? I was with him the whole time" I said."The storage keys, where is it?" He asked."The storage key, it's...."I quickly searched my pockets, my eyes grew wide and my mouth

    Jasmine's pov Ma Gloria gulped the water, flushing the drug hanging in her throat."I told you, those meds are so bitter" she whined.She grimaced in a funny way and I laughed at her childishness."Ma, you're just exaggerating" I said.She leaned back on her chair, and signaled me to turn on the AC.. which I did, she closed her eyes.The nurse from earlier, came back in and carried the tray of food and drugs."It's a good thing you're here, Jasmine, we wouldn't have been able to convince her to take her drugs" she said."Don't worry, Vera, I'll be coming around now and she won't be able to skip her meds now" I said.Ma Gloria sneakily opened her right eyes, but quickly shut it when she noticed we...(Vera and I) are staring at her. We shook our heads and laughed."I should attend to the others" Vera said and left.She sighed when she heard Vera shut the door, she adjusted herself on the chair."Ma, have you remembered anything about your past recently?" I asked."No" she murmured."W

    Jasmine's pov *...I don't care how you do it, but make sure you get it done!*That's Thanatos barking orders at someone on the phone, since we got home.. he's been on a bad mood, getting angry at every call he received.It must be because he was denied by his mother.*...you better, or consider yourself fired!* He snapped and hanged up.I sighed, shaking my head, bosses and their temperament.. always putting their employees on a hot sit!Setting the knife aside, I reached for a small bowl and poured in the diced chicken.Arms wrapped around my waist from behind, the scent of his cologne hits me.. but I already knew it was him without his cologne.After all, it's just the three of us (Davis, Thanatos and I) in the house.He snuggled his head onto my shoulder, catching a whiff of my perfume and he inhaled deeply.. in contentment."What is my baby cooking?" He asked."About to fry your a*s!" I replied.Though in a very low tone, so Davis won't catch what I said. That kid is d*mn smart a

    Adele's pov I stepped out of the changing room, in an off shoulder gown that stops at my mid thigh.. I twirled. I spread my arms and put on a very bright smile, I faced Clark."What do you think?" I asked him.He face palmed himself and groaned disapprovingly, he shook his head."Absolutely no!" He said.My eyebrows drew together in a deep frown, I pouted and angrily kicked the red heels I was wearing."What do you mean, absolutely no?" I asked in a deep resonate voice. "This isn't matured enough!" he said.I looked down at the dress, how is this dress not matured? Did he expect me to wear a granny's gown?I lifted my head and narrowed my eyes at him."Let's just leave! I'm not gonna try on another dress!" I snapped at him.Like seriously, this is the twenty-seventh dress I'm trying on, he's been disapproving every single dress I tried on.It's either not matured enough, or too slutty...or too babyish! None of them suits his taste.We've been going round in circles for almost two h

    Adele's pov "Jas, are you sure I look ok?" I asked Jasmine for the hundredth time. Jasmine sighed feeling frustrated at my repeated question...and slumped onto her dressing table, she held her head in her hands.Ok.. let me brief you guys.After Clark left me at the mall, I came home directly to get dressed.But I suddenly remembered I'll be meeting his parents, It wouldn't look good if I dress so crazily.. but the problem is, I'm not good at getting dressed up and stuff.Which left me just one person... Jasmine! She's a fashion icon, she's my only hope.. that's why I'm in her room right now."Say something, Jas" She groaned."Adele, you look absolutely fabs!" She replied.I twirled around in front of her mirror and smiled in satisfaction, she really did a great job.The make-up she did for me is just so impeccable, the way she stylishly gelled and combed my hair is absolutely a masterpiece! "I should be sleeping by now" she grumbled.Oh..right, I woke her up from sleep."Sleepin

Henry.He tilted his head and took a glance inside, but couldn't see Sir Roman."Yes, Mr O'Briens... he said he knows you're here"Henry took a deep breath, he nodded and pushed Simon aside then walked in.He walked straight into the living room, with Simon trailing behind him.Sir Roman sat on a recliner, a glass of wine in his hand and a TV remote on the other hand.. he's watching a wrestling match."Sir, Mr O'Briens is here" Simon reported.Sir Roman simply waved him off, he turned to Henry with a smile.. that clearly doesn't reach his eyes."Henry... My grandson!"Henry shut his eyes at how fondly his grandfather just called his name.. he knows something deadly is coming afterwards.

Currently, we're listening to the recorded conversation.But while this is going on, an old man whom I just got to know as Mr Roman, is glaring daggers at ma Gloria."Ahem!" An officer cleared his throat. "Mr Roman, what do you have to say about this? Did you had this conversation?" He asked the old man.Mr Roman simply glared at ma Gloria and scoffed, he refused to speak a word."I'll take your silence as a yes...""Don't waste your breath, I know you're gonna send my case to the court.. but first, I want to see my grandson" Mr Roman said.His grandson? That should be Thana's stepbrother... I looked around but there's no unfamiliar face here, it's just us."Grandfather, I'm here!"

    Jasmine's pov The next morning..."Is it really necessary for you guys to go there?" Adele asked.My eyes flicked towards Peter who's carrying our bags to the car, then sighed. "Yeah.."She frowned at the bags Peter's carrying, then took my hands in hers and pouted."Why are y'all taking so much bags with you? Do you plan on settling there already?"I frowned slightly, then burst into a brief laugh."Adele, we might stay for some days.. you're making it sound like I'm abandoning you""Are you not?" she asked."You're just being overly dramatic" I told her.Just then we heard a knock on the door, I wanted to go get it but Adele told me not to bother.Her flicked to my stomach and she smiled, she pushed me onto a sofa and made me sit down."You should take care of yourself now" she said, her eyes still on my stomach.I rolled my eyeballs."I told you guys, this might just be a false alarm" Honestly, I didn't want anyone to find out about this just yet, because it might be a false ala

Mr Evans asked.I bite my lower lip, swallowed the nervous lump in my throat and shook my head."No" I answered. "He was a farmer"It's better I tell him the truth now, I can't bear the repercussions if he finds out I lied later...rich people are always powerful."Was?" He tilted his head slightly."Yes, sir...he died last year, he suffered lung cancer" I said. Mr Evans nodded, he exchanged a knowing look with his wife and her lips curved in a smile.. or smirk.. I don't know.I'm too nervous."What about you? Which of the universities did you attend?"His question made my blood ran cold, will he chase me out if I told

One of the officer asked.Ma Gloria took a deep breath and nodded, though she seemed a little bit nervous."Alright, let's start with.. who's Mr Roman to you?" The officer asked."He's.. he's.. my stepfather"Who's this Mr Roman everyone is talking about? How come I don't seem to know him? Or maybe I haven't seem him before."Your stepfather...." the officer trailed off and jotted down in his note, then lifted his head."... can you tell us about your relationship with him?" He asked.Ma Gloria nodded, she cradled Davis whom she's still carrying in her arms.. she had refused to lay him down."My mom got married to Mr Roman three years after my dad died, she took along with her, my sister and I..

    Jasmine's pov A tap on my shoulder woke me up from my sleep, I sat up and massaged my stiffed neck... a yawn left my mouth.Wait...when did I fall asleep? weren't we just watching a movie?My eyes located the wall clock in Adele's living room, a gasp left my mouth at once... It's been two hours already.How could I sleep for such a long time? I guess the movie was too boring and I ended up falling asleep. "Jas, they are back!" Adele said.I sprang off the sofa abruptly, my heart suddenly skipped and some unknown fear gripped me..my heart started beating fast.I hope it all went well..."Jas, Clark and Thana are back!" she repeated her words."They're back?" I asked again.I turned towards Davis who's already sleeping on the sofa, I carried him on my shoulder and snatched his backpack from the table. "Em...good luck" I told her, referring to her meeting with her in-laws.She smiled and nodded. "Thank you, I think I really need some luck"Just then, her door pushed opened and Clark r

    Writer's pov"Clark!!" Thanatos called his name, but Clark isn't moving.Not that he doesn't wanna move, but he's in shock and can't react. Thanatos pushed him away, but he wasn't fast enough.The bullet hit him (Thanatos) and went through his chest, just an inch away from his heart.Thanatos gasped loudly in pain, he aimed randomly and shot at whoever shot him... he clung on his bleeding chest."Thana.. I think we should retreat and think of another plan" Clark said worriedly.Thanatos focused his gaze on the retirement home ahead of him, he shook his head in disagreement."We must get my mom out today!" He got up and knocked Clark out."Peter stay and watch over him, find a hideout and hide there.. until it's all over" he told Peter."Mr O'Briens..."I glared at him, but he ignored my glare and continued."...you can't fight with those guys, they're skilled assassins""Don't make me knock you out too" he said and rushed towards the gun fire battle. **Thanatos pov Standing in the

We're currently sitting round a table, in a restaurant right opposite Molina's retirement home."I discovered something very interesting" he said again and paused.Can he just finish his words in a go? I have very important things to do than listening to him blab about his date."Those security men patrolling the place, can you see them?" He asked.I faced him and realized he's pointing at the security men guiding the retirement home."Yes? What's with them?" I asked, then turned my gaze back to the security men."They are spies, they're not real security men"I rolled my eyeballs and shook my head, then poured him a glass of water."Clark, tell me something I don't know" I told him, dumping the glass of water in front of him."What do you mean?

I scolded her.She slapped her hands on her mouth, but doesn't stop screaming. When she's had enough, she stopped. "I knew you'd react this way, that's why I brought you to the locker room" I told her in warning tone.She scoffed and shrugged off my words, crazy female."You mean, Elvis was sent here by your dad.. to watch over you?" She asked."Yeah""Now it all makes sense!" She exclaimed."What makes sense?". I asked.She got up, I sighed and rolled my eyeballs.. she's about to make it dramatic.Her hands behind her, she paced to and fro in front of me...she tilted her head as though she's thinking."Our behaviors throughout these years should have gotten us fired, but it didn't"Adele nodded her head, she stopped pacing and reache
