JULES’S POV“Why is he taking so long to get here?” I asked Arthur as we waited for Brandon to get to the apartment he loaned to us.“Why don’t you just stay patient?” He asked me.“Don’t get on my nerves, Arthur,” I warned him deeply.“Don’t you think I want this as much as you do?” He asked me.“Well, I don’t know because you are not acting like it!” I blew hot.“Yet, I found us a good lawyer,” Arthur said.I sucked my teeth and looked away from him.He was still infuriating me, and I was still living in deep regret, but that was the least of my worries right now. Since we had been here, even the security guard wasn’t aware that we were the ones here. We hadn’t gone out except when we went to confront Nesse at the company, and Brandon had to ask the security guard to stay away.Brandon provided everything we needed; food and toiletries, and as such, we didn’t even need to step out of the house and no one also came in to see us.It was just the perfect arrangement.Only that I wasn’

IRON’S POVI waited for Athena, but she seemed to be delaying way too much. It was way past the time that she should have returned to the Organization to give me news of what was going on, but she hadn’t, and I was worried.I was troubled.It wasn’t because Athena couldn’t keep herself safe, but it was because I was desperate to know the next update on Nesse, and her lateness was making me more restless than I had ever been.Another reason why I wanted her to get here in time was because I heard of a place I could find Helheim, and I wanted to take him out myself.I intended to go much later tonight when the Titans would be in the safety of their rooms, and I wanted to go myself because I didn’t want to deal with any more lies and betrayals. If Helheim was dead, as Hades still vehemently claimed, I wouldn’t have gotten this information.It wasn’t time for me to start going out to war yet, but this was important, and I was sick and tired of letting someone else handle things for me, e

NESSE’S POVAthena was very reluctant to help, but she remained in the ward with me.“Why are you still here if you are not going to be useful?” I asked her angrily.I wasn’t a pretentious woman to begin with, so I didn’t even hide the fact that I was enraged that Athena had the guts to turn me down, even though she did so respectfully.“I don’t think escaping from the hospital is the right thing to do, Nesse. The doctor is worried about your health, and you don’t look strong enough,” Athena said.Those were the exact same words that she had been saying that had been pissing me off.“Then you should leave,” I said.If I wasn’t going to listen to the doctor, Athena should know that I wasn’t going to listen to her either. The last person I listened to was my dad, and that was even through his will when he asked me to take over the company.Even my mum knew that I would never listen to her, and she was one of the major reasons I needed to leave here.She had gone right ahead to surround

ATHENAI arrived at the Organization as early as possible because I knew that I would need to change into something else before returning to work for Nesse for the day.And I ran into Blake.“You didn’t spend the night here, did you?” Blake asked me.“No, I didn’t,” I answered because there was no need to lie; he already knew the truth.Blake simply nodded, and I knew almost immediately that he wouldn’t ask me where I had been. Blake and I hadn’t had much encounter, but I knew that he was nothing like Hades.Again, I only pitched him to Lord Dante because he was Hades’ enemy, and I wanted to punish Hades in a way without physically doing so myself. “There has been another death, so you might need to be careful,” he said.“Another death?” I was deeply shocked.“Yes, and it is not ideal for you to be seen walking around and alone in the Organization,” he said.I sighed in exasperation.I hadn’t been in the Organization long enough, and that was majorly because of Lord Dante’s assignmen

HADES’ POVI hadn’t felt better than right now in a really long time. Everything was going just the way I planned it.I had succeeded in making Iron remorseful, thinking that the Seer lied to him, and I knew that what I did just gained his trust more than anything or anyone else.Including the Seer’s.Even though I hadn’t completely succeeded with Blake, at least, there was a recorded success, and that was something to be proud of.I walked around, doing Iron’s bidding by looking after where he wanted me to guard, but then again, I worried that this new assignment would stop me from leaving just when I wanted to. I knew that Vince and I would still have to see each other, but how would I achieve that with this new responsibility.Blake was now stationed in front of the blind girl’s door until Iron decided on something else to do, or how to keep her safe, and that should make me a little relieved because it meant that I wouldn’t be seeing much of him again, but somehow, Blake being ali
