Chapter: PerfectionLaxus stayed glued to Nessy’s side at the hospital, holding her hand tenderly and never letting go. Nessy had been in the hospital for twenty-four hours now, and even though she kept slipping in and out of consciousness as a result of the medication that was administered to her, Laxus remained at her side.Bowman had tried to talk Laxus into going home to get some rest, but Laxus had been adamant.Even the doctor had informed Laxus that there was nothing to be worried about anymore, as Nessy was better; the medication only needed to wear out of her system so that she could regain consciousness fully and be discharged, Laxus still didn’t leave.Staring at Nessy, it dawned on Laxus that he had fallen in love with her.Without knowing and without looking, he had loved Nessy. After the betrayal he experienced from Linnie, Laxus never imagined that he would ever be able to love another woman, but here he was, having his heart pump with love for Nessy.The mere thought of losing Nessy made L

Chapter: True Reconciliation With SelfLuther waited along with Laxus and Bowman at the private hospital lobby while the doctors worked on Nessy.Laxus was clearly restless and agitated, and dangerously quiet.It dawned on Luther that Laxus was madly and deeply in love with Nessy. It reminded him of the feelings he had thought he had for Abby Golden, but since she left, and with the turnout of things, Luther had come to realize that she was simply using him to carry out her vengeance on Laxus simply because he did not reciprocate her love.His heart became warm, and tears gathered in his eyes.Looking at Laxus, he felt slightly envious, but it wasn’t the envy that resulted to hatred.In truth, things had always worked out well for Laxus, and looking at him now, standing right next to his biological father, Luther wished that he had half of what Laxus had. Laxus was visibly and dangerously worried and upset, and as a result, he had been very quiet and tense, making Luther to pray in his heart that Nessy should be alright,

Chapter: Rescue MissionLaxus was almost losing his mind. He had already alerted the cops, and although they were out looking for Nessy, they had to do so cautiously so that they would not upset the kidnappers.Dragon was also out with his men, combing the entire city carefully and searching everywhere for Nessy.“You are going to have a heart attack if you continue like this,” Bowman told Laxus.He had never seen Laxus this troubled, and it confirmed all that Bowman had been saying that Laxus was deeply and madly in love with Nessy. The look he saw in Laxus’s eyes was very familiar; it was the same kind of look that he had about Katryn Kinkaid.“How can you ask me to calm down? What would become of me if anything happens to Nessy?” Laxus said.He was already beating himself up for letting Nessy go to the gigantic mansion with just one driver and bodyguard. He already had that fear the first time that Nessy mentioned her intentions to visit the mansion, but she managed to talk him out of it.How could he hav

Chapter: Losers And WinnersLuther was completely drenched in confusion and sadness, and he covered his face with his hands as he tried to get a hold of himself.He had come into his father’s bedroom to narrate what he overheard between Linnie and Detective George, but what Luther hadn’t expected was the revelation his father was giving him. In the last one hour, Luther had stayed put and listened to Darwin reveal everything to Luther, from the very beginning where he met with Katryn Kinkaid, the betrayal, his sacrifices, and what he had to do to keep Luther in the family name and inheritance.“You mean all that happened?” Luther managed to ask.“And I am telling you now so that you would know that it is time to fight your enemy,” Darwin said bitterly. “The company is your legacy, Luther, but now that it seems like you are about to lose it, you have to also make sure that Laxus’s life is miserable as well,” Darwin instructed.Luther was stunned into speechlessness.He had always wondered why his father never re

Chapter: Father And SonBowman knew the moment he saw the letters even without touching or opening them, and that was because after he heard of Katryn’s death, Mrs. Kinkaid had revealed to him that he had a son with Katryn; a result of their one-night stand, and she also told him that Katryn had tried to write to him, but Darwin seized all the letters.“Five million dollars, and you will get to read all these letters,” Linnie answered. Then she proceeded in bringing out the small box, much to Bowman’s surprise. “And you can have this forever too,” she added.Bowman’s heart grew heavy.What Linnie was asking for was not an amount he could not afford, and he knew that she was a desperate bitch, but he didn’t mind. Anything that would put his mind at rest and help him to complete what he should have done years ago, and also get closer to Katryn one last time, he was willing to do it.“And you will never show your face again?” Bowman asked her.“You have it,” Linnie answered with certainty.Bowman didn’t believe

Chapter: Plan BLinnie and Luther were brought out of the cell they had been thrown into like criminals.“You are free to go,” they were informed.They were both surprised, because they had actually feared that they would remain locked up forever, especially being that the accusation that was leveled against them was huge, and with Laxus’s influence and power, if he decided to press full charges against them, they would never survive it.“On whose authority?” Luther asked.“We are not at liberty to say, but just be grateful to Detective George for pulling some strings,” came the answer from one of the cops.Again, they were shocked. However, Luther lingered to pick up his stuff while Linnie went ahead of him. She found Detective George waiting outside the station and she hurriedly went to him.“You bailed us?” She asked him, almost whispering.Detective George seemed hesitant to speak to her as he was worried about Luther as well.“We shouldn’t be seen talking, and you know this, Mrs. Linnie Kinkaid

Chapter: Human Or NotNESSE’S POV“Your ex-husband, Iron, is not a full human.”That was the information that Tonia last gave me that had been causing me sleepless nights.That was the only thing she could tell me because she hadn’t been able to find out more information, but she only gave me that information because she wanted me to have something.Which, in my opinion, was still baseless.I didn’t want to believe her until she gave me something tangible, but then again, I had been thinking deeply about it, and it made me wonder about a lot of things.Was that why Iron could come into my bedroom and even the security guards wouldn’t be aware of him?Was that why the doctor said that the baby wasn’t the normal one?Was that why Iron’s sperm had been in my body for over four months?These were worrying facts, and I couldn’t rest or sleep, and because of the freaking disease that came in the form of a pregnancy, I was beginning to feel a migraine coming up.“Athena,” I called her.She came into my office alm

Chapter: Stay The Course HADES’ POVMy anger was boiling when I left the Organization. I thought that Iron was going to stop me, but he didn’t.He had the power to keep me trapped in the Organization until he got whatever response he needed, but he didn’t.“I can’t believe that after everything, he would think of me as the enemy,” I said to myself.I tried to stop thinking about it, but I couldn’t.I found myself hanging out at a bar. I got a bottle of beer, but my appetite wasn’t there. I just couldn’t get my mind off it. I felt offended and betrayed.“Iron wasn’t worried that I could have been attacked. His first thought was that I could have been attacked by this same evil enemy, but the first thing that would come to mind was that I was the attacker?” I kept asking myself.The more I thought about it, the angrier and more bitter I became.I had done way too much for Iron for him to turn against me like this. My eyes went to my injured arm, and I felt the slight pain. This was the very first time that Iro

Chapter: The Attacker?IRON’S POV“Hades, what is this?” I asked Hades.He seemed shocked, not because he didn’t know that that mark was on his body, but because I found out.“What did I just see?” I asked him fiercely.Hades used his cloak to cover up the scar again, and it dawned on me that I should have been suspicious of him from the very beginning. Wearing a cloak in the Organization at this time of the day didn’t even appear logical, but because of the issue at hand, I hadn’t been paying much attention of appearances.Hades then turned to leave, but I was fast enough to stop him by grabbing him by his arm.“Don’t you dare walk out on me while I am still talking to you, Hades,” I said with annoyance.My heart was beating very fast, and for the first time in a really long time, a certain kind of fear engulfed me, so much so that I couldn’t even think out loud what I was feeling deep inside seeing that mark at the back of Hades’ ear.“Let me go, Iron,” he stated tightly.Hades wasn’t remorseful.He wasn

Chapter: An Almost Betrayal IRON’S POVI saw how enraged Hades was, and what he had been about to do, and so I simply said what needed to be said. I would have said it anyway.Blake’s eyes flashed with curiosity.“Is this a joke?” Hades asked me, forgoing whatever he was going to say that would have led to a greater disaster.I knew that he would be upset finding Blake in my chamber. Hades had been aggravated since the very moment I refused to kill Blake, and all attempt to make him come to acceptance had proven abortive recently, and I was sick and tired of trying, especially when there were more important things to handle.And I had expected that Hades, with his age and experience, would understand and act accordingly, but so far, he had gradually begun to turn into a thorn in my flesh that I couldn’t take out.“No, it is not a joke,” I responded firmly.At least, for now, what Hades had been about to do had been subdued.“We are waging war against them, and I need us to come together to talk about it before

Chapter: Provoked To SpillHADES’ POV“Hades, Lord Dante requires your presence in his chamber,” one of the Titans came to me and told me.To my astonishment, he came alone.“You now walk around alone?” I asked him. He smiled and said, “Yes, Hades. Blake’s teachings have been helpful, and I am now very equipped to fight back,” he responded with boldness.They had no idea how dangerous whatever was hovering around the Organization was.According to his words, it was a being from another realm that had been let into the Organization. Unfortunately, he couldn’t say more than that because he couldn’t foresee things. The only person that would have been able to reveal everything was the Seer, but I couldn’t go to him.And I certainly couldn’t ask Iron to go to him either.Not after what happened the last time.“So, you think you are fit to fight off any sort of attack?” I asked him, trying to sound as casual as I could.“A hundred percent sure, Hades,” he responded with eagerness.I wanted to say a few things, but

Chapter: Skeletons And SecretsJULES’S POVArthur walked into my room and saw me seated dejectedly on the bed.“You have been hiding away,” Arthur said as he walked closer to me.“Haven’t you been reading the news?” I asked, snapping at him.“Yes, but should you also be hiding from me? We are in this together,” Arthur said.I curled up my lips in disagreement.“Do you think I am not affected by this?” Arthur asked. “I am being criticized and bullied just as you are,” he added.He sat close to me on the bed, but as soon as I had the urge to get some distance between us, I shifted from him.If Arthur was offended by it, he didn’t say.“That godforsaken daughter of yours is really biting more than she can chew,” Arthur continued. “I knew your dead ex-husband to be a son of a bitch, but I didn’t think that his daughter would be worse,” he added.“The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,” I snorted.“In Nesse’s case, she became the full apple tree,” he said bitterly.I wasn’t even concerned or bothered about the fact t
