Athena Creed’s head fell in my arms as he passed out. Damn! I should not have driven too fast, I didn’t know he wasn’t using the seatbelt. Tears formed in my eyes, my life is just pathetic. My brother was lying in the hospital, my daughter and my sister were missing and my husband just passed out. His assistant helped me to move him to the backseat and offered to drive us to the hospital. I was glad that the press wasn’t present when we got to the hospital. I don’t want to wake up tomorrow and have my family issue splatter on papers. It won’t aid the investigation of the kidnap. Creed was taken into the emergency room and his assistant told me needed to leave because he wanted to join the investigators in searching for Ava and Artemis. I was confused on whether I was suppose to wait with my husband in the hospital or join the investigators on the search for my daughter “Can I come with you?” I voiced out as Luke turned on his heels. I was assured that the hospital staff would tak
Creed I opened my eyes, pangs of pain rushed into my head, I groaned out in pain.“Are you okay?” Sarah came to me. The makeup on her face had washed off from her crying. I sat up real quick as I remembered that Artemis and Ava were still missing.My father-in-law was sitting down on the chair beside my bed and Apollo was sitting close to him. He looked worried but he didn’t say a word. Seeing that my own family members weren't here, Luke did a good job containing the whole situation. The press doesn’t know about it yet. Artemis’s image too was at stake. “I am good ma’am.” I looked around for Athena. “Where is Athena?”“Layla led us here, assuring us that the police were on the lookout for Artemis and Ava. When we got here, Athena wasn’t here anymore.” I checked the huge wall clock opposite my head, it was past midnight, judging by who Athena was, she probably went after the kidnapper, since he had contact with her.I did a good thing by installing a tracking app when I checked he
Athena “We are going to have lunch late with Prince Ahmad and his wife this afternoon.” I informed Creed as he came out from the bathroom. “Prince Ahmad?” “Yes, the man from the gala.” I reminded him. “Do you think you should meet anyone? I mean the imprint of the blow is still on your face, you don’t want the press thinking I hit you or something and Ava?” “We are going to have the launch at the prince’s private resort and there won’t be any press. I will wear makeup so it won’t be obvious. Ava is coming with us this time.” He sighed and walked out of the room, closing the door with a silent thud. His reaction to my decision was crystal clear. The prince had texted me and told me his wife fixed the lunch today. Meeting a business tycoon like the prince was a once in a lifetime chance. Next minute, he could fly out of the country. I might not get to see him for another two or three years. Prince Ahmad owns the biggest oil plant in the city. Having him on our partnership board w
Creed I laid Ava in her cot, and I checked my phone, to read the email the private invstigators had sent o me. Athena barged into the room, I got up from the bed and moved to the sofa, she turned off the light and came close to me. I could still see her perky breast that stood firmly to her chest clearly in the dark. You wouldn't know she had Been breastfeeding. She came to me and sat on my legs. "Athena." I hissed as my cock jerked up in response to presence. She smiled at her little achievement. "I want you." She breath and her mouth reeked of alcohol. That was why she didn't come up early. She had been drinking. "You are drunk. You never want me when you are in your right state of mind." I shrugged her of my laps and adjusted my pants. "That's not true. I always want you." "Go to bed, Athena. I'm not in the mood to argue with you." "You would take Princess's Alimat instead right?" "What are you saying?" "You know what exactly I'm saying. I saw the way you were exchanging
Creed “I came with my car, sir, let me drive you home.” Luke chased after me till I got to the entrance.“Don’t bother, have the company deliver ten pairs of tuxedo and shoes plus the most expensive coats in the store in my father’s name.”“What are your plans sir?” “We will discuss that later.” I got into the cab that stopped in front of me.“Where sir?” The cab driver asked me.“King’s estate,” I told him and he ignited his bright yellow cab and made his way to the estate.My father was sitting on the porch next to my step mom when I got home.“What brings you here?” My father grunted. I looked at my step mom and she rolled her eyes at me when our eyes met.“I have come for a favor.” I looked him in the eye.“Marrying Allen’s daughter didn’t not only give you the guts to reject my order but you now look at me in the eyes.” He laughed and I just stared at him. “What are you here for?”“I have come to ask for the position you offered to me, I have considered it and I am interested
Athena.His footsteps were in my head. I recognized them everywhere. It is difficult to admit that he was a part of me now. I don't even hate him like I wanted to.The bed dipped when he sat behind me. He trailed his fingers on my back, circling them in an even pattern, touching me where I wanted to be touched. He placed a kiss on my shoulder.“What does your tattoo mean?” He moaned into my ear and nibbled on it. I creamed in my panties.“I was abused when I was eight by my nanny.” I broke my fear and he froze, his teeth gripping my ear “You are hurting me.” “I am sorry, I just didn’t think….” He trailed off and continued. “I am so sorry. I am..”“It is okay, you can just hug me from my back, I will feel better.” I assured him.He took off his shoes and he sat beside me like I asked, I leaned against his bare chest, I didn’t even know he had taken his clothes off. He snuggled his face in my neck and I felt his hardon poke my bare back.He withdrew from me when he saw that I flinche
Creed Athena's hair sprawled on my shoulder, I tugged the hair that fell across her face behind her hair and I placed a kiss on her plump full lips.I didn’t want to ask about her trauma, I wanted to know what happened exactly but I just couldn’t bring myself to ask. We were both so hungry for each other that we couldn't even talk about it.This was the second time we made love and it kept on getting better. I went downstairs to prepare some breakfast before Athena woke up when my phone beeped. It was a text from Luke.“Good morning sir, I just found the COO that resigned from the company, he sent me a file, I have forwarded it to your discreet email.” I sent a thumbs up emoji to him and I went straight into my crib, I took the key from underneath the foot mat I kept it and went in.I turned on my computer and immediately, I checked the email Luke had forwarded to me, it contained the accounts of how my brother managed the oil and gas distribution plus the other contracts he had sig
AthenaI was feeling stuff, that was the best way to describe what I was feeling. Sex with Creed was mind-blowing at least I was sure that he didn’t rape me, even if my doctor’s report didn’t say that.Speaking of reports, I requested my hospital records from one of the doctors I referred to the hospital. The records were not easy to get, not even when mine got manipulated. I wasn’t in the best of moods anymore, entering my husband's workspace. I didn’t even know that place existed in the house. We have been living together for almost seven months and I barely know him.Maybe the sex brought me back to my senses. I jogged down to my studio, I rarely dropped by in the past few months, work at the office always wears me out.Cobwebs welcomed me as I opened the door, Aubrey didn’t pay the cleaning company, must be pregnancy hormones that made me forget.I am glad her baby daddy didn’t reject her baby because she didn’t seem like she was going to accept it if he actually rejected her bab
Third person It’s been five years since Luke lost his father. Things have been quite some, Athena had softened towards her father. She was now calm, and made more time for family but there was no doubt that she loved her work so much. Everyone was used to it. Luke’s IT company was now one of the biggest establishments that made a lot of revenues. The couple seemed to plan their life out with work and all. He preferred to work from home and she liked to go to the office. Carrying their second child in her arms, Athena screamed from the sitting room. “Honey, we are going to be late. I need to take Asher to the hospital then head to work after.” “I was brushing Ava’s hair.'' He came downstairs and he looked disappointed. “C’mom, you said you were not going to work till Asher was old enough to walk this time.” “It would have been cool if you had a little interest in business. I already have it hard managing our companies, having to stress about how it would fare in my absence scare
Third person. Luke arrived at his father’s residence instead of going home to clear the air with his wife. The place was rather quiet and he usually had anxiety that attacked him whenever he was going into the building wasn’t there. He didn’t know if his father made a wise decision by sending his stepmom away at his old age. Although there were caregivers to cater to him, they would never be like family. His stepmom wasn’t a saint and had done many evil things but every did deserve a second chance just like the one he was giving his father. If he had the chance to discuss with his father , he was going to mention a thing or two to convince him to let his stepmom back into the huge estate. Waves of feelings flowed through his system as he approached his father’s room, fear wasn’t one of them anymore. He had overcome his biggest problem, the fear of his father. The father left him right after he let go of the grudge he had ashaint him for how he got mistreated. He never had new clo
Third PersonAthena and Luke called each other everyday and never went a day without speaking without speaking to each other. He told her about the progress of his work and how fast things were going.He even assured her that they would be spending less than a year at the training center because the kids were learning so fast. He talked about how their tutor said they completed a two month course in a week and half.He asked his wife to give them a bonus on their usual salary, Athena also told him how work was going, she said her COOs are doing a great job. She told how she never has to go to work too early. She told him how Ava was going to start school soon and she was now called her mama. Athena has started attending Culinary school during the weekends because she is now less busy on weekends.She also worked part time at her mom’s bakery so she could learn to bake. She was determined to impress her husband with her cooking when he came back home. TWO MONTHS LATERAthena was sitt
Third Person “Sir, I don’t think it is the best idea to return home now, we are ending the classes next week, plus testing the AI, team C created and preparing the records we are presenting to the board of shareholder and partnership. We only have the team of service provider and database management on board.” Luke followed Creed closely. “That is enough and Luke I trust you can manage the testing and the records, just fax the analysis and summary to me. I will take it from there and I will be back as soon as I can return, please contact the pilot.” Creed said when he took his shirt off in the changing room and wore a new one. Lukke bowed and he left Creed to dress up. He contacted their pilot and asked him to get the plan ready as soon as possible. He also ordered a car service to Creed to the airport. Creed got on board and he was flown back home. The airport staff welcomed him warmly and provided a car for him to head home. Creed knew Luke had prepared all of that. He drove to
Third Person Athena woke up to her mom’s call, she had argued that she didn’t want to leave the house like her mom had requested but she had to give in. Her mom rambled about how the staff of the bakery were busy and how she didn’t want to leave Athena to strangers before telling her that she needed someone to do some minor grocery shopping. Then she sent the grocery list immediately Athena agreed. She dragged her body into the bathroom for a quick shower. She sat in front of her vanity mirror and took a deep breath. She had bags underneath her eyes from insomnia and crying. She had cried all night, and was unable to sleep, she was heartbroken. She never thought Creed would cheat on her. It must be the woman that seduced him or she fell for his charm, Nevertheless, Athena was so mad that he had been so cozy with the woman in the picture, she was older than him. She rubbed some cream on her body. She went to the wardrobe she had now extended to a closet to pick the clothes she wa

Third person“Papa,” Ava put wet kisses on her father’s face. She always acted like she knew what was going on, she was acting like she knew that he was going to a far place. Athena helped Creed pack his traveling box. She packed every necessity, some gray shirts, skincare products, cotton underwear and his favorite junk food. She carried the traveling box to the lambo’s trunk while he made breakfast for them. She was feeling down because she was going to miss him and she was acting strong so she wouldn't cry.She couldn’t stop him from chasing his dreams. He had the right to especially when he didn’t have the time to chase his dreams immediately after got of college. She ate breakfast in silence, ignoring every talk he threw at her. Creed understood why she was being like that. He stopped throwing the talks at her and fed Ava her breakfast silent. He went to get dressed,Athena got dressed today and drove them down to the airport.“Are you not going to see your father before you le
Third personJethro dialed Athena’s number, and she picked it. It was facetime. The Kings were at The Allens estate for a brunch in celebration for the twins graduation so they stayed overnight on Sarah’s request.“Hello Mr. \jethro, what do we have here?” Athena asked as she surveyed the environment where Jethro was.“I am trying to pick a ring, I want to propose to Aubs.”“She is here with me, you should whisper if you don’t want her to hear you.” Athena pranked him.“Phew! He sighed. “She is at home, Mrs. King and I can see your husband behind you.” Athena burst into laughter. “I don’t think there is a specific ring I can ask you to pick.”“Do you think I should buy a gold, a silver, emerald, diamond or I just buy all and ask her to pick?” He was totally confused.“Well, I have never been proposed to, so I wouldn’t know but what I think you should get a diamond ring, every girl likes diamonds, don’t we?”“Is creed sleeping?” Jethro asked her and she looked to see what he was doing
Third personArtemis had anticipated her graduation so she could focus on her career without having her father on her neck. She majored in songwriting. School was fun for her as she was doing what she loved the most but the life outside school seemed to be appealing to her.She shared an apartment with her twin nerdy twin brother who loved to paint and was obsessed with pottery. The house they shared was filled with paintings of her. Apollo always said his sister was ugly to her face but found it very interesting to paint her every time.She spilled a cup of water on his face. “Wake up grumpy head, we are graduating today.” She yelled in his ear. Apollo got up from the bed and wore his glasses. He was pretty much used to his sister’s attitude.He stopped complaining when she told him it was a sign of love, he knew how he was getting back at her.He strode to the sitting room to pick up their car keys and Artemis followed him clueless. “I see you are quiet this morning? Did you dream o
