I can feel Blue as soon as she steps into the room. It’s as if my body is attuned to her presence and wants to remind me of where her mouth was not long ago. My dick twitches at the reminder but I use my skill of not giving anything away to hide the urge I feel to drag her back upstairs. I don’t even care that she’s on her period, I want her. Never thought I would think about doing something like that but that’s how addicted to her I’m becoming.“Alright instruct me mystro!” She says once she’s seated at the desk next to me.“Every part of the internal parts of the company have been transferring to my off site server overnight and should be finished soon. Then the whole server in the building will be wiped. Once that’s done my father will panic and fall back on using the media to make him not look inadequate. We need to prevent any news of my company’s current situation to get out just yet. To do that we need to set up a trojan horse that we will send to each mRelated chapters

BlueI don’t think I have seen Artemis look so conflicted before. For a second before he’s able to pull on his mask of indifference I see a flash of confusion and hurt on his face. “I don’t get it.” Alan says. “Why would she help him knowing the shit he’s put you through?”“It doesn’t matter. She was involved and knows everything. We need to change our plan and freeze her out of any further matters. We will also need to block her from accessing anything connected to the company.” Artemis says before walking over to his computer and working quickly to do just that. “This doesn’t feel right.” Alan says quietly to me. “She would never betray his trust.”“How do you know?” I ask him. He lowers his eyes to the floor for several long moments before he looks back up at me. “Because she’s, my wife.” He admits. I swear my eyes bug so far out that I’m worried they’ll drop to the floor. “What?” I hiss at him with a glance in Artemis’s direction. H

ArtemisI’m lost in my mission to uncover every email or call Abigail has made to my father in the past. As much as I want to destroy her for helping him, I want to know why. She has never given me any indication that I couldn’t trust her. This is why emotions and feelings don’t belong in business. I didn’t sense anything from her that would make me doubt her, but she has shown me my trust was in vain. How many more people will betray me for me to remember that trusting in others is a mistake? Fuck I need a drink. I finally pull myself out of my one-track mind and look around to find the room empty. Where did Alan and Blue go?“Blue?” I call out. When I don’t hear a response, I stand and go searching for her. I don’t see her in the kitchen and when I go to our room, I find it empty. Did she try to run again? Once again uncertainty and confusion builds inside me. I look around the room but find her ring, phone and purse gone. Her other stuff is still here which I’m

BlueI should have expected Artemis to find me eventually but man am I glad it was just now. Not that I was scared to square up with his dad, but in a physical fight I’m not so sure. As I glance around though I see all of the guys moving toward us making a wall from the press. “Artemis this is ridiculous and childish. We could have discussed these matters in private. And how dare you bring your sister into this.” Mr. Rhodes Senor says.He has already released me and Artemis has moved me behind him but I step to the side enough to see this face off. “We know what a private meeting would result in father. It would be you bullying me into stepping down to your demands. “ Artemis lashes back. “That is not true, and you best put that girl in her place when it comes to our family.” The words come out like venom but only half hits me. I know I don’t belong here but Artemis wants me, so I’m not going anywhere until he demands I do. “She is my wife and will b

BlueHow do I keep ending up in these crazy situations? “I can’t say the same given that you have me and my friend tied up.” I say back to man.I’m trying to see if I recognize him but I can’t see anything that makes him seem familiar to me. He laughs. “I guess it isn’t the best way to make a first impression, but necessary.”Okay….I don’t like the vibes of this guy. He seems friendly but also looks so wound up that he could snap at any second.“Right. So what are we doing here?” I ask because why not? “You are here as incentive. Your husband has caused a lot of issues and angered a lot of people. If he wants you to be returned unharmed then he will have to meet several demands.” He says vaguely.Right I guess this is kidnapping 101.“Why did you take Abigail as well?” He looks at her like she’s gum under his shoe. “That was a mistake. I guess my men were a little too zealous.” Abigail cant see him because he’s standing behind her but

Artemis My father is about to go into all the ways he’s outsmarted us when my phone goes off. I bother listening to he annoyed objections as I take it out and check the message. The image in front of me makes my blood run cold and then hot within seconds. “Artemis!” My father yells but the sound of his voice snaps something inside me. I stand and move around the table. His eyes follow me until I’m standing in front of him but that calmness in them doesn’t last long when I grab him by his suite and pull him to his feet. “What have you done to her?” I yell at him. He tries to pull my hands away but I shove him back until he hits the wall. “Control yourself Artemis. I taught you better than to let your emotions control you.”“Artemis! Let him go!” My mother yells. She sounds like she’s performing a scene in one of her movies.“Let him go Artemis or else!” Tet calls out next. I want to laugh at my brother trying to sound tough. He couldn’t’ bea

Artemis“I’m sorry Artemis.” Rhea rests her hand on my shoulder and gives it a reassuring squeeze. “He’ll talk eventually.” I tell her but she and I both know that our father would happily take everything to the grave if it meant that he would win. “Maybe, but I know that you’ll find her. There has never been anything in this world that you can’t figure out.” Her confidence is sweet but misplaced. I am a determined asshole but even I have my limits. “I just need to go at him from another angle.” I stand from my old chair and walk around the desk to go talk to Dane when the door opens. Alan walks in with Abigail under his arm. She’s curled into him, and her eyes are fixed on the ground in front of her. “What are you guys doing here? Shouldn’t she be seen by a doctor?” Rhea asks. Abigail looks up at my sister and shakes her head. “I’m fine.”“That bruise on your face says otherwise.” I point out. She can’t seem to look at me even when I’

Blue“Mr. Rhodes tells me you got yourself in a bit of a situation.” The General says as one of his guys cuts me loose. I pull my hands in front of me and message my wrist. “You could say that. Thanks for saving me. Is the guy…you know?” “He isn’t dead if that’s what you’re asking. This isn’t exactly a military operation so taking him out would not have been ideal, but we’ll handle all the paperwork. The most important thing is you’re safe. I would hate to see what your husband would have done if we didn’t get you out of here.” He says with a laugh. I scoff. “Him? All of you would have to worry about me haunting your asses.” He and the others laugh. “You’re right about that. Although you would be the most entertaining ghost to have around.” “Prettiest too.” One of the guys says. The General smacks him on the back of his head and he takes of before he can reprimanded again. “Let’s get you out of here. Can you walk?” The General helps me to my fe

ArtemisI am never letting this woman go anywhere without me ever again. Every time I take my eye off her she gets into some crazy trouble that nearly sends me to an early grave with worry. No, she is going to be so sick of me because I’m going to be stuck on her ass like a barnacle. “Where exactly is home? I mean your family home is compromised, so is your old apartment and the hotel. Where else can we go? I don’t think there are many options where someone won’t find us.” My wife says. She playing with the hair on the back of my neck and it’s crazy that such a small touch from her can drive me crazy. It doesn’t help that she’s sitting on my lap. Why did I put her there in the first place? I must be a masochist. I would gladly suffer if she’s the one torturing me, but I’m getting off topic. I wanted for us to find a place together but I found a place I think she will love and it is only minimally furnished so she can change it however she likes, but it’s also a ho

BlueWhat is going on? Here I was expecting some yelling or fighting but got hysterical laughter instead. Are they all high? Well, probably not Iris, but she looks a little confused as well. Same girl, same. “What is so funny?” I yell. They all slowly calm down and it’s Rhea who speaks next. “Blue, I know that this may seem strange, but we’re happy.” Say what now?“What do you mean? You guys would be getting nothing!” I remind them as if it weren’t clear. “We know and that’s the great part. Honestly, it’s a relief. That money is tainted with bad memories for us. It’s a burden, but to someone who’s as kindhearted as you it could be a huge blessing. You’ve come from having so little to having enough money for a hundred lifetimes. You could do anything! We are happy to let that money go and let you decide what to do with it. Once the funeral is over we can finally let that time of our lives die too. It’s the last tie to what our family name used to

ArtemisThis week has been hell. My grandfather and parents did not want to leave this world without one last special, and I’m hating every second of dealing with it. Still for my sisters it means closure even though our relationship with them was strained. Then there’s the whole matter of the will. Honestly, I don’t want to know what my grandfather has left me to deal with. If what’s happened in the last few months are only a piece of what I have to face then I’m going to hate the rest even more. My sisters are happy to let me handle it since they don’t want a thing from my father or grandfather. As much as they feel a sense of loss, they also feel relief. The last die-hard Rhodes are gone and we can all move on. My charity work with blue has been a lot more rewarding than any of the other work I’ve done, and seeing her smile is all the payment I need. Fuck. I haven’t been able to spend much time with her thanks to all this, but as soon as it’s over I am taking the fi

BlueI make it back to the bookstore just as Dane comes in searching for me. “Everything okay?” He asks looking me over for injuries. “Yeah, they didn’t have what I was looking for and I even asked an employee to look, and it took forever just for her to tell me they didn’t have the book. Crazy right?” I laugh weakly and hope he doesn’t notice my discomfort in lying.He doesn’t ask anything, so I guess I did okay, but as we drive home my anxiety hits an all time high. How am I going to look at Artemis and his sisters knowing what I know and not say anything. These people have been rich all their lives and even though they are individually wealthy do they expect more now that their grandfather and parents are dead? I can only imagine the amount of money those three died with and now it’s coming my way. There is so much anxiety and pressure waring inside me that when we get home I rush through the front door and to the nearest bathroom to throw up. No one seems

BlueI need to find a way to get out of here without anyone asking questions. Also, that means leaving the babies and Lilly which I’m not sure anyone will be willing to do with everything else going on, but I need to go to this meeting. There’s no time to debate logistics, so I head back to the living room where I see the Rhodes siblings still discussing something. Artemis’s eyes lift when I walk into the room, and he gives me a confused look. Maybe he sees something in my face that has alarm bells going up, so I try to smile and act like nothing is going on. “I’m sorry but something came up at my office, I need to run in and handle it. Can I leave the kids with you?” I ask him. “Of course. Is everything okay?” He asks standing and stepping around the couch to walk in my direction. I don’t really want him touching me right now. It feels fake now. After what I heard it has me overthinking still and I don’t have time to dig deeper into all those feelings right now.

BlueThe door opens behind me, and Artemis walks inside with Iris next to him. His sisters are on their feet in an instant and rushing over to wrap their little sister in their arms. The three of them start to cry while Artemis stands off to the side watching them. His forehead is creased, and his jaw is tight like he isn’t sure what to do but also like he’s worried. So, I walk over to him and slip my hand in his. “You okay?” I whisper. He sighs. “I’m glad she’s okay.” That’s enough for me. This is all so fresh, so it makes sense that none of them know what to say or do next. “What can I do to help?” I ask him. “We need to wait for the lawyer to the estate contacts us. They will let us know our grandfather’s and parent’s wishes for burial and memorial services. Then we go from there. After the funeral there will be the reading of the will, and we’ll all know where we stand in this family.” He grinds his teeth at that last part. I may not know much a

BlueAfter Artemis leaves, I stand in the hallway and try to figure out the best way to go about this. Rhea is torn up over the news and I want to be there for her, but what can I do? I don’t want to just sit back and have them handle everything while they work through everything emotionally. It’s no secret, things were strained between all of them but that was still Artemis’s parents and that has to be hard for him. Before I can come up with a plan one of the babies starts crying. All of them have a different cry and this one is Eros. I walk into the nursery and pick him up right away. His head turns to my boob as soon as he’s in my arms. Before I take him out to feed, I check on Selene and Damion, but they are still asleep.Those two sleep like the dead when they want to except apparently at night when the smallest sound has them wide awake. In the end all of them end up in bed with me and Artemis to finish off the night. Not that either of us care much, we love cuddling u

ArtemisI hadn’t heard from my grandfather in several weeks and I’m wondering when he will send Iris to us. I’m willing to fly to wherever they are and pick her up myself but any attempts at contacting my grandfather have gone unanswered. That is until Rhea comes stumbling into the house looking as if she’s seen a ghost. “Artemis…” It sounds like saying that much was too much effort. “What?” “Rhea? What’s wrong?” Blue rushes over to my sister and helps her to sit down on the closest chair. “Rhea, what’s going on?” “Just look.” My sister hands her phone to Blue, but I can hear the audio. 'Another tragedy involving the famous Rhodes family. Unfortunately, this accident resulted in the death of three members including the Patriarch of the family, his son and his daughter-in-law. The following information may be upsetting for some. The police and rescue crew discovered the pilot a mile away and the members of the family different distances from the crash. Ou

ArtemisSeeing Blue juggle, the children’s home and motherhood is like watching a bee buzzing around a hive. She has been going non-stop and is trying so hard to make up for the time she lost not being there to help. I know she thinks that she will let someone down if she isn’t giving one hundred percent of herself in everything she does, but I can see her burning out. At night she’s been crashing as soon as her head hits the pillow, but she’s up any time the triplets need to be changed or fed. I try to help as best I can, but she always tells me to sleep, and she will handle things. Only she doesn’t realize that she sleeps through a few of the nightly cries, and I make sure nothing wakes her. Now that she will let the babies in the nursery, I turn off the monitor while I’m in there and switch to getting alerts on my phone. That way she can sleep, and I’ll still be able to hear the babies. She needs the rest. Since the babies came, I’ve been in full dad duty. Not that

BlueThe first few weeks home with the triplets is chaos. Lilly is such a sweet girl and even though she needs a lot of help with things she hasn’t complained once having to share our time. Artemis has made everything so much easier by just being here and helping wherever it’s needed. He was joking about the personal chief either. I mean when does he ever not mean these things? I should know that by now. He also did have a whole medical room set up in the house. There are plans to expand the house even more thanks to all the plans he has. Athena found a house down the street from us and has been so happy with her decision to adopt. She’s an amazing mother and it’s been great having her so close by. Rhea, not wanting to be left out also bought a house on our street and has been stopping by with her kids almost everyday much to Artemis’s displeasure. He’s gotten a lot better with having his sisters around but he’s still his grumpy self with them. Now they just find it fu
