[Book 2] IV

ARTEMYI vowed to stand guard against those demons. I pledged to wage that battle for her, just as I had promised to restore her shattered serenity. My chest constricted, and unbidden tears welled in my eyes. It was a rare instance, an unexpected vulnerability. Tears. Damn tears. I was allowing them to flow. "I'll await your call," Claire murmured before rising from her seat. Nona swiftly took her place, readjusting the towel around Rebecca. With a gentle gesture, she drew the comforter over her, then stepped back. Bernadette's gaze was fixed on Rebecca, her usual expressionless visage unchanged. After a brief moment, she departed

[Book 2] V

ARTEMYThe following day had already arrived, Nona arrived bearing food. However, my appetite was nonexistent. My presence remained steadfast by Rebecca's side, where I held her closely, my touch gentle and hopeful, yearning for her to awaken from her slumber. Throughout the day, my companions, the men under my command, entered and exited the room. Brayden made attempts to persuade me into taking a shower, yet I stubbornly declined. Nona, displaying concern, offered to care for Rebecca while I rested, but I rebuffed all offers of assistance, distancing myself from their well-intentioned efforts. I spoke ceaselessly, my voice growing parched and aching. I held onto the belief that my words could somehow reach her unconscious mind and rouse her from her deep sleep.

[Book 2] VI

ARTEMYRegardless of the baby's lineage, whether mine or Raffaele's, its innocence remained undeniable, intricately woven into Rebecca's essence. My hand returned to her rounded belly, a surge of possessiveness mingling with my newfound determination. Rather than shying away from this sentiment, I embraced it, allowing anger to kindle within me. Raffaele's retribution wouldn't solely be for his transgressions against Rebecca but also for the harm he inflicted on this unborn child. Rebecca's movement in my arms drew my thoughts to a halt. Our gazes locked, a wordless connection established between us. We held each other's gaze, unyielding and profound. With gradual motion, Rebecca stirred within my

[Book 2] VII

ARTEMYAs the meadow unveiled its beauty, I paused, my back leaning against a tree. Gasping for breath, my gaze eventually settled upon Rebecca. Her back was turned, fixed upon the coursing stream. She perched upon a rock, her ebony tresses cascading freely. Running quietly, I arrived and stood next to her. She stared ahead, seemingly unaffected by my presence. Lowering my gaze to her appearance, I crave for a hint of a smile or a glint of light within her eyes. Alas, no one was following me, and the weight in my heart deepened, my stomach coiling in knots. She’s staring at the creek, without any signs of emotion. This place held significance within her memory, a hidden fragment resurfacing.

[Book 2] VIII

ARTEMYStepping away, I walked towards the couch, my voice carrying as a declaration, "I don't play fair when it comes to claiming what I desire." I lowered myself into the chair, positioning myself across from her. She met my gaze momentarily before redirecting her attention to the piano keys. We remained in this poised stance for what felt like an eternity. And then, she played. A solitary key, a solitary note. In an instant, I was roused from my reverie, my eyes widening in anticipation. Leaning in, I strained to catch any further sounds. But alas, that was the

[Book 2] IX

ARTEMYIn front of the nightstand, Rebecca was huddled on the floor. Resting against the wall, she curled herself protectively, her quiet sobs reverberating. It was as though she sought refuge from the world, hidden within herself. My heart constricted at the sight; she appeared so fractured, so delicate. Turning my gaze to Brayden, I detected his anguish. Shaking his head, he retreated from the room, leaving me to confront the aftermath.  Once again, my attention was drawn to Rebecca. She cowered, her face obscured by her arms. Drawing nearer, I knelt before her. "Angel," I breathed, my voice a mere whisper. Startled, her he

[Book 2] X

ARTEMYI cradled Rebecca in my arms, feeling the subtle shift in her position. With a sleepy sigh, she nestled even deeper into my embrace. Gently blinking open my eyes, still blurred by remnants of slumber, I gazed down at her. Her peaceful sleep contradicted the turmoil of the nightmare that had haunted her mere hours ago.  Since that fateful night, several days had passed, days of her silence but nights plagued by relentless nightmares.  She was reconnecting with her emotions, however faint and nearly imperceptible. The nightmares were stark evidence of this reawakening. Rebecca had convinced herself that numbing her

[Book 2] XI

ARTEMYBeyond the doorway, Avim and Brayden awaited me, their presence acknowledged with a nod before we embarked on a shared journey into my office's confines. Curiosity prodded my voice, "What's the current status of Howard and Damian?" A grumbling undertone accompanied Brayden's response, "The business operations continue without impediment. Surprisingly, their competence remains intact. It seems their acumen is undiminished." Satisfied with this report, I acquiesced with a measured nod. The assurance that the enterprise's machinery hummed along as intended provided a semblance of solace. "Regarding the welfare of the women ass

[Book 2] XII

ARTEMYI eased myself onto the edge of the seat, settling Rebecca gently onto my lap. "Just take a deep breath. You're safe now. Don't rush it. Breathe slowly. That's it, Angel. In and out." Rebecca rested her head against my shoulder, her breathing falling into the rhythm I'd suggested. Gradually, her breaths grew steady, and as her tense breaths gave way, I could hear soft sobs escaping her. I held her tenderly, my arms wrapped around her, an unbreakable shield. Rebecca didn't pull away, instead, she held onto my arms as if her life depended on it. Her tears tugged at my heartstrings, evoking an intricate blend of emotions within me. A mixture of pain and relief intertwined, leaving me uncertain

[Book 2] XIII

ARTEMYHours blurred into a tumultuous cascade of fists and pain, a tumultuous dance of anger and self-reproach. Our collective fury at those who had wronged Rebecca found release through our relentless combat. Leon and Avim soon joined our fray. "I can barely catch my breath. I suspect I've broken something," Brayden wheezed. "Coward," Leon wheezed in retort, fighting his own battles. "You fell first, even before the rest of us," Avim quipped to Leon. With a shake of my head, I limped away from the battleground, my thoughts converging on the one I affectionately called my Angel. It was time to reunite with her.
