RAFAELMy mother’s visit had been an unexpected surprise but then it was still a welcome one. In a way I had missed her extremely much and the only reason why I had not been to see her was really work and how busy I had gotten trying to use all my resources to track down Hermes King. Even though it had taken me completely by surprise, I was still happy she was there.Explaining to her that I had kidnapped the daughter of the man who had kidnapped me when I was much younger and she was expecting a child for me would be too much work. It was better for me to just play along with what she thought in her mind. For now she thought me and Athena were a thing and most likely in love and that’s just how it had to seem at least until it wasn’t possible to keep up that facade.I pulled out my phone from my pocket as I closed the door and dialed Charles’s number. Charles was the private investigator that I had hired to help me carry out business. He was the best tracker that I knew and if there

ATHENAHe kept on stealing stares and glances at me all through the dinner and for some very weird reason I found it cute that he couldn’t take his eyes off me. Our eyes met a couple of times and there were times he held my gaze before I averted mine and continued the conversation with his mom. There was something different about the last look we shared though, I could feel the intensity of his eyes bearing down into me like he was trying to bore a hole through me.This made me entirely uncomfortable and I started stuttering my words when I was talking to Christine. Even at that, his eyes were still completely fixed on me and I could get that vibe once again. That sinister aura which I had felt at the dinner and in the car back then, there it was in full force once again and this time I couldn’t possibly just dismiss it as nothing.I looked at him questioningly but that didn’t deter him even a little bit, if anything, it spurred him on even more. This made me extremely uncomfortable a

RAFAELI flung the cup of whiskey on the wall as soon as I entered into the study and I watched it shattered into a million pieces.“Fuck!” I yelled out, thinking about how stupid I had been.She had been deceiving me all this time and for some weird reason I hadn’t seen it. I had given her the benefit of doubt and a part of me had started to believe that she actually had no idea where her father was but then, there was no explanation for that photo.He was in it, which meant he was in close proximity with her and knowing Hermes, there was no way he would be that close to her and not reach out. It was totally impossible.I sat down on my chair, as I thought about everything. My reaction to everything had been extremely stupid. I had felt I would be able to keep everything in but when I had confronted her about it and she lied, a switch inside my head had flipped. At that moment, all I could see in her was her father and it made me sick to my stomach.She no doubt suspected that someth

ATHENAOur eyes were locked on each other and I was in extreme shock when I saw him just standing there staring down at me as I read the book I was planning on picking up from the store. So many questions ran through my head at that moment.He had told me I was given free rein to move around as I pleased so why was he still following me? How did he even know where I was in the first place? Perhaps it was a coincidence but knowing Rafael Hall, there was no such thing as a coincidence.“What are you doing here?” I asked immediately, getting up from the chair to face him with the book still in my hand. “How did you know where I was?”He looked at me for a couple of seconds and then brushed past me without saying a word. I watched him pace around the store, looking around as if he was searching for something or someone.“What is the meaning of this?” I voiced out again, extremely irritated at this point.I knew that the store was a place I had to be quiet in but at that moment, I could ca

RAFAELI watched the glass shatter once again, this was becoming kind of like a daily ritual at this point and I hated it so much. Why was I letting all of this affect me so much?Over the past couple of days, I could feel my irritation at everything grow at an extremely rapid pace. A pace that even I couldn’t keep up with. None of this would have happened if that stupid guard didn’t lose sight of her in the first place.I paced around the room thinking about everything. I had already had ample time to think about it all through the drive home and I realized that my reaction had been extremely wild. After all I had been the one who had given her free rein to do whatever she wanted to do so me showing up where she was would definitely raise some red flags in her mind.A part of me had hoped that she would be meeting up with her father wherever she was. It had been the only thought that was in my head when I was searching for her. I felt she was going to quickly arrange for a meetup and

ATHENAI was walking back to the room after excusing myself from the dining table, the whole vibe around there was too much for me to take. The two of them seemed like they were just waiting for me to leave in order to start talking. I thought about eavesdropping on their conversation but then there was no point in me doing that and there was no way I could do that because of how the dining room was structured.All I could do now was head back to the room, but then I couldn’t still shake that feeling that I knew his friend from somewhere. Ever since I saw his face, it had been on my mind like a tape that was stuck and didn’t want to play. I knew the answer was just right there but for some strange reason my brain was finding it extremely hard to assess that particular memory.Could it have been a party? Or a gathering? Did we talk to each other?I stood there for some seconds pondering about it. It was obvious that I was not buying his whole story about him having a familiar face and

RAFAEL“Go after her and do not let her out of your sight. If she attempts to escape or do anything to stupid then you inform me and make sure it doesn’t happen. Do you understand me?” I asked Ellen,She simply nodded in affirmation and left the study after Athena. She had shown that she couldn’t handle the freedom which I had let her enjoy so I was going to reverse everything and return it back to how it was before. Lock her up and make sure she doesn’t leave anywhere. If this was how she wanted it then I would happily let it be like this.I couldn’t believe that I had been stupid enough to leave my door open for her to be able to come in and snoop around. It was a rookie mistake, one that I never made. It was very obvious at this point that I was off, something was messing with my normal rhythm and I had no idea what it was. This business with Hermes was definitely getting into my head and that was why I was this determined to end everything.“I just saw the girl.” Hernandez said, a

ATHENAThe room felt very clustered and choking to me as I continued pacing around trying to figure out what to do. At this point it was very obvious that Rafael was hiding something from me and I couldn’t shake that feeling it was something very serious. A lot of scenarios were running through my mind but apart from the picture of me that he had which he had refused to talk about, there was nothing really concrete that I had found out.My head was spinning because of all the thoughts that were playing out in my head and I was finding it really hard to breathe at all. I needed to take a walk at least to clear my head or something. I couldn’t afford to stay cooked up in this room forever.Ella was standing in the hallway right in front of the door as soon as I opened it and she greeted me with a smile. I smiled back and brushed past her. It wasn’t until I did this that I noticed she was following right behind me.“Do you have something for me?” I asked, turning to face her.“No ma’am.”
