Chapter 101: Too Real To Be True

Aiden’s PovI could remember dialing Damon’s line that fateful night.I had long given up on hoping that Artemis will return to me, but it nearly dawned on me when I heard her voice.Panic! That’s the best way to describe how her voice sounded through the phone.“Damon was shot!”***The room went silent as I ambled into it. It was a white room which aligned with the white apparel of the doctor and the nurse behind him.My eyes went straight to the bed. Artemis—my Artemis was lain on the bed with a drip wire connected to the lower vein of her right hand.I can’t remember the last time I met her in such condition but this was sure the last thing I will ever wish for her even though somehow, Kaden managed to rob me of her.“We will excuse you,” doctor Twain, as he called himself earlier before now, said at the sight of me in the room, and left the room with the nurse, while I stood in silence.“Aiden…” she whispered sickly. The doctor told me she’s doing good now and I could see her if

Chapter 102: Another Interlude

Author’s povThey arrived pulled into a hotel, not Aiden’s place as Artemis had thought. Their trip on the other hand had been a silent one—silent and anxious. They snubbed the parking lot and drove towards the huge fountain in the hotel and stopped there. Aiden turned to Artemis who was nestled next to him at the back seat of his car.“My place is still far from here as you know.” He started with a wink. “We have to rest here, and from here, we’ll meet with Damon’s brothers to inform them of what happened to Damon and maybe, arrange his burial.”Artemis fiddled with the thought to tell him that they shouldn’t just arrange Damon’s burial, they should be part of his burial. They should mourn him alongside with his family for memory’s sake.“For now, let’s get some rest, and maybe, you might find it at your disposal to tell me what happened last night.” he added as both doors of the car were pulled open by his men.Outside the car, Marlon and the rest of the men were waiting, except t

Chapter 103: A Time To Weep

Artemis’ pov“The lady who showed us in will fetch you something nice to wear.” Aiden’s eyes seized me up with content. I moved my lips in response but they produced no words.He nodded, maybe he knew I was void of words for many reasons. First, for ever leaving him for his brother who posed to be better than he ever was, and second, for Damon’s death.If I never made the wrong decisions, Damon might still be hale and hearty. I blame myself for his death and I hate that Aiden does not wish to have me take the blame for it.He left me and made to the cellar in the room, while I waited on the couch for the lady to report with the dress as he claimed. I watched him chose a wine from the cellar. It looked classic from what I could see, like a bottle picked from the reserves of an extinct brand. I waited for the familiar sound of him pouring wine in the glass, but he returned the bottle to the cellar.Maybe he’d grown bored of me. I was there with him but I wasn’t keeping him company the

Chapter 104:Business As Usual

Author’s pov They returned to the room, followed this time by Marlon and two men in suit and black glasses, but very much unlike the lady and her girls, Marlon and the men took a seat on the couch in the room, while Aiden brought the wine he chose earlier from the cellar. Artemis on the other hand walked into the inner room from where she watched them. “I thought it will be difficult,” Marlon’s brows rose to his hairline and as his eyes clearly anticipated response from Aiden. Aiden shrugged and walked towards them with the bottle and a glass in hand. He passed the glass to one of the men who received it from him and held it out to be filled to whatever measure Aiden wished. “I never hoped it will be difficult in any way—but one thing I wish not to behold is a blood bath between Brandon and Kane’s people.” Aiden popped open the wine and gently poured some of it in the glass. The man nodded his head and gulped what was poured for him. “Pass to the next person.” Aiden ord

Chapter 105: Midnight Tuor

Artemis POVAiden left me at the hallway and walked off. He probably wanted me to tour the house on my own in search of a room to suit myself. I took a breath of relief. His presence was a little too hard on me, maybe because he didn’t do much to have me take part in Damon’s burial—that is if there will be any for him. I hate that I didn’t have the chance to speak to Damon’s brother. I hate that the talk between Aiden and the man was tense and brief.I waited till I could hear the sound of his feet to the marbled floor no more before I took my first few steps, with my hand on the marbled wall. The interior looked quite odd from what one would expect when one glanced at the building from outside. It thought it was a wood house with wood floor and flowers. I stopped by a golden eagle sitting at the far end of the hallway. The entrance to the hall itself was now at my right, and the staircase to the rooms upstairs was at my left. I peered into the hall and saw Aiden sitting and star

Chapter 106: Something Worth Seeing

Artemis POV “But—” Aiden raised a finger as I rose to follow him out of the hall. He closed in on me with narrowed eyes and ran his finger on my cheek. “You will go on blindfold.”I said nothing. “Good,” he nodded. My silence was a yes to his proposal. He fished a black pick of cloth from his pocket, and with a gentle nod, he ordered me to turn. I turned and shut my eyes, while he slowly blindfolded me with the cloth. “Can you see?” he asked.“No,” I answered.“Good,” he uttered and held me by the hands. “You have to trust me, Artemis.”I nodded. I trust him. I believe he knew I did. Especially now I needed to trust him more than I’ve ever done in all the time we’ve known each other. With his hand slung across my chest, he led me through in utter silence. The walk was slow and steady, and we did make stops that was followed by the creaking of doors he pushed open to secure a free pass for the both of us.“Here we go,” he said after a while. He took his hand off my waist and I he

Chapter 107: Golf Time

Author’s PovDon Carlos Creek, Aiden’s father had settled in the open space of the estate with his men, a bag of clubs and balls for a quick golf game with his boys when Aiden and Artemis arrived.They stopped and watched him knock a ball into a freshly dug hole with his club, and joined his men to celebrate his pretty score. “Aiden—” he called out after the celebration and hugged him as they met in close range. “Did you see me do it like a pro?” Aiden laughed. Don Carlos really did it like a pro—no doubt. He did it like he’d been doing it right all his life, but the distance was close and the hole was wide compared to the traditional holes for the golf game. But Aiden knew not to speak of the error.The man who dug the hole must have done it to suit Don Carlos.“I saw you do it like you do it for a living,” Aiden laughed, sure his father must have figured out the reason for his laughter. Don Carlos patted his back and broke the hug. “I sure do this shit for a living. Don’t you kno

Chapter 108: Dinner For Three

Author's PovThe men were settled around bottles of cognac when Artemis entered to announce that dinner was ready. Not for all—they knew. It was for Don Carlos and Aiden and her. the guards would figure out themselves though they wished to be part of the meal.“Indeed,” Don Carlos rose to his feet. Aiden joined him and together, they followed Artemis into the building, but Artemis led them out through the backyard door to the backyard garden where she fixed a makeshift dinning and laid out the meal she made.“What the heck is this?” Don Carlos posed.Aiden raised his brows. He could have warned Artemis to be super careful with recipe she would decide to make because his father is not an easy-going fella. He was the type who would take detail of everything and grunt at whatever he detests.“It’s a makeshift—”“Yes, I love it.” Don Carlos did not let Aiden defend Artemis. He took the first seat and gestured at Aiden and Artemis to join him. the two lovers looked each other in the face

Chapter 109: Too Long A Night

Aiden's POV I snatched up my phone as soon as Artemis left the room and turned it on. It took a split of seconds to boot and soon, it displayed the screen with the notifications on the message icon.I tapped into it, but before I could read what was sent, my phone buzzed. The number was an unsaved one but I picked up hoping it was Hera. But it was not Hera. It was Marlon.“Sire—” his voice announced his identity. “Sorry, I had to call with a different number. I broke my phone in action. We were attacked.”My heart skipped a beat. Attacked?Who on earth is so discreet they could read my gestures? The move was meant to be smooth, unnoticed, but I knew it had gone public when my father talked of what he knew I would do. Or, maybe the enemy knew just what I will do, and I foolishly played into his hands.“Did you lose anyone?” I asked.“No, sire.” Said Merlon. “They merely aimed for the back seat. Maybe they thought you were in the convoy.”My brows narrowed at his utterance. Who else wh

Chapter 110: joy Comes In The Morning

Aiden's POV The first light of the morning broke through the gap in-between the curtains and rested on rested on my face. I rubbed my eyes and reached out for Artemis, but my hands caught just the pillow. It was then that I realized I had not been awake all night.I shrugged and turned over to meet the empty space with the pillow that had long lost her warmth. I sighed. She must have been such an early bird to have left the bed before me.I crept out of bed and yawned while I looked into the day through the gap between the curtains. The estate was calm, and the garden’s seemed to have new visitors: birds and insects. I just hope hornets are not part of the visitors.I searched my pockets for my phone, and just then, I realized I left it downstairs last night before I carried Artemis to bed. “Good lord,” I sighed and walked out of the room. The house was calm, but the but the aroma of something delicious had filled it to the brim.Artemis was definitely making something delicious in
