ATHENAI had tried my best to remove my mind from everything and not think about it but it felt like the more I tried to do this, the more I thought about it. I hated the fact that all of this was bothering me so much, it was not fair to me because it honestly didn’t concern me. This war or whatever was going on between Rafael and my father was between them, I didn’t see the need why I was being dragged into the matter. It made no sense to me at all.My anger had reached an all time high and it was majorly directed at Rafael. At first I had thought he cared about me which was why we were together. Now finding out that every single thing from the beginning had been a lie was proving too much for me to bear. It had not yet been confirmed by him if he knew who I was when we met and had sex but it was safe to assume he did.All of this was my fault at the end of the day. I was the one who had allowed him in and I was the one who was stupid enough to get pregnant for a stranger. A stranger

RAFAELMy eyes trailed her all the way to the top of the stairs as she went to get dressed. I wondered why she didn’t remind me of the appointment sooner, but then I had already set up multiple alarms and reminders so I wouldn’t forget. The health of her baby was very important to me, it was a key part of everything and I couldn’t afford anything happening to either one of them.I could feel the anger in me rising even now as I watched her. The face of her father kept on appearing in my head and I could picture him clearly on the blank screen of the tv. All what he had said kept on ringing in my head. Calling me an abuser, saying I raped his daughter and emotionally manipulated her. That was all insane talk to me and he knew it was insane. He knew exactly what he was doing when he went on tv to say all of that.He wants a reaction out of the general public, a reaction which he is most likely to get if I do not take care of things fast. Seeing how popular he is with the media and the p

Hermes was parading around the whole room as he tried to keep his nerves in check. The meeting with the investors was about to start and he already knew that this particular meeting was going to be quite a tough one. His reemergence into society had come with a lot of heavy costs, costs which he had not completely thought out and now had to bear the consequences.When he had taken his break, he had cut off a lot of people including a lot of the investors. He had disappeared without reaching out to them, he had only told them he was going away for a couple of months for a bit to conduct a solo research which would in turn help the business grow more. He couldn’t possibly tell them that he was running away because he had gotten a tip that people were after him. There was no way in hell the investors would keep up their trust in him if they knew there was any heat on him at all, given how sensitive the work which they were involved in was.These men which he worked for were very dangerou

ATHENAThe sounds of voices woke me up from the deep sleep I was in. It was the first time I was sleeping properly in days and the only reason I could successfully achieve this was because I had gotten a prescription for some sleeping pills from the doctor. I needed some rest and every time I tried to get it, I found myself drifting more and more into thoughts that I shouldn’t have been having. Sleep had become a myth for me but that had changed when I took the drugs.I still felt sleepy even now that I woke up and looked around. If I had my way I could sleep all day but the voices which I could hear from outside had broken that fragile connection to sleep. I sat up a bit as I tried to make sense of what was going on outside. It seemed like a commotion was happening right outside my room.As I sat up, I wondered what was going on. In all the noise I could make out two voices, one was Rafael’s which I could literally recognize anywhere. The second was a woman’s, it sounded so familiar

Hermes was seated back in the same restaurant sipping a cup of tea which he paired with a croissant. The combination went so well and it was one of the things that he missed so much about the restaurant. There was no way he was going to just cancel it because of what had happened but this time he was going to take more precautions to ensure such stuff didn’t happen again.When Rafael had reached back to him the previous day to agree that they indeed needed to meet up and talk he had been very skeptical about it.“Why the sudden change of heart?” Hermes had asked,“I just want to give you a chance to say whatever it is you want to say. I am not going to have it be written that Rafael Hall did not show enough reason.”The conversation between them had made Hermes crack a smile as he realized that Rafael was a lot like him. They might be on opposite sides right now but Hermes could already imagine the havoc they would have wreaked together if Rafael had not managed to escape all those ye

ATHENADays had gone by and the whole house had been rather peaceful and quiet. Not a lot was going on as I waited patiently for the baby to come. My baby bump was becoming more and more evident with each day that passed and I found myself looking forward to actually meeting the child. A part of me dreaded what may happen after the child was born though but I tried my best not to think too deeply about it.I just wanted all of this to be over with as quickly as possible and the fastest way for that to be possible was for the baby to be born. Once the baby was born everything would return to normal, at least as normal as it could ever be.Being cooked up in the house for hours and days on end was extremely exhausting to me. It wasn’t easy for me to adjust to a life like this, I was used to doing every single thing for myself but Rafael insisted that I didn’t do anything at all. All he wanted me to focus on was giving birth to the baby. I found this cute in a way but then it wasn’t some

ATHENAThe restaurant I chose was one which I was quite familiar with already, I really enjoyed their food and everything which was one of the reasons why I went there.The guards stood in a corner of the room while I ate, it was obvious that this was clearly Rafael’s instructions. I bet he told them not to let me out of their sight the whole day. This brought a smile to my face, if there was something I liked more than anything, it was a challenge.I finished my food and got up to head to the restroom. One of the guards followed after me immediately and I stopped him right as I got to the door.“What are you doing?” I asked,“I am very sorry ma’am but we are under very clear instructions not to let you out of our sight.” He said,“I see that actually but come on, are you really going to follow me to use the restroom?” I asked, “Will your boss really be comfortable with that?”The man looked extremely embarrassed as he thought about it and I laughed.“Don’t worry I won’t be too long,”

RAFAEL“They will be out any minute now and that’s when we are going to strike.” Hernandez said to me, “Are you ready?”“You already know I am.”He was crouched beside me peering out of binoculars at the warehouse in front of us. We were both dressed in black and I reached for the pistol behind me to check it one more time. The silencer was fixed and it was fully loaded, the plan was to get in as quickly as possible without making too much noise.This was one of the warehouses which was on Hermes’s list. We had already hit two of them and had found a variety of things in them ranging from drugs to weapons and everything you could think of. Hernandez had not been joking when he said Hermes had his hands mixed in almost everything I could think of in one way or another. I had not believed at first but now it was hard to dispute it, the man was indeed truly sick.I now knew how he made his money and this was my chance to attack it from the shadows. It was very obvious that he wasn’t the
