I Like It Here
ATHENA’S POV“A conference meeting is coming up and I am one of the speakers. It happens this Friday, and I want you there with me by my side,” Nesse told me.I jotted down what she said, but she stopped talking and looked at me.“Why aren’t you using the pad?” She asked me.“Um, my hands are a little wet right now, and it will not work well on the screen. But once it gets really dry, I will transfer all of it to the pad,” I lied.Nesse stared at me, and for a second, I thought that I had said something out of context; an obvious lie, because the truth was that I had never used a pad before, so I might have said something that was way out of line.But then she continued, much to my relief.“You have to ensure that your fingers are dry at all times, because you will definitely not be writing on paper for me during the conference,” Nesse stated. “I cannot have you embarrass me on that day,” she added.“Yes, Nesse,” I responded diligently.She continued with dishing out instructions, and
A Little Too Late
NESSE’S POVThe screaming came out of my lungs before I could stop myself, and my hands shook so badly that the phone almost fell from my hand.My bedroom door burst open, and Athena hurried into room protectively, as though she was ready to attack whatever was making me scream.If I wasn’t so shocked, I would have wondered where she got what seemed like fighting skills from.“Nesse, what is it?” She asked me.I couldn’t respond. I couldn’t even stop staring at my phone screen.The news was staring at me square in the face and taunting me.“Recently widowed billionaire, Arthur Loreson, ties the knot with Jules, Nesse’s mother, whom he proposed to on the day he lost his wife, in a private church in the city this evening. They were joined by the Priest, and they are now man and wife.”That was the news.I wouldn’t have believed it if there weren’t pictures to back them up.My mum was dressed in Benita Arthur’s wedding dress! Her audacity was nauseating, and didn’t I speak to her this v
Late At Night
IRON’S POV“What is keeping her?” I asked worriedly.Usually, Athena would have been back from working for Nesse hours ago, and she certainly would have come to give me the day’s report.Whether or not something happened, the assignment was that she would come to me as soon as she returned to the Organization to tell me all about what happened.The last information she gave was unsettling, but since she didn’t have the full information yet; she hadn’t been able to listen to all the calls that Nesse made, I instructed her to keep close watch, and that if there was anything that looked like danger coming close to her, she was to alert me without delay.This was past midnight, and Athena wasn’t back yet.I hadn’t forgotten that Nesse had a thing for working really late in the night sometimes when we were married, but then again, certainly not until past midnight.Athena was strong and skilled, and I shouldn’t have to worry about her, but I was, and it wasn’t something I could shake off.
Plan And Proposition
HADES’ POVIron could only try to keep me from leaving the Organization for a while, but he couldn’t do that forever.Definitely not.By morning, I left because I really needed to handle this as soon as possible. Iron wanted Blake and I to take down Vince really early enough, and if I wanted to achieve my own part of the plan, I would need to be part of the plan.I was so engrossed in what I was thinking that I almost didn’t realize that I was almost passing by Nesse’s company.“The woman,” I said to myself with displeasure.Iron was becoming honest, which wasn’t what I expected initially, but still, he hadn’t shown me honesty in her regard. What drew my attention to her company was her convoy driving in. I would have passed, as she was not any of my business, but something piqued my curiosity, and I couldn’t help but watch from an angle where I wouldn’t even be seen, and that was when I got the shock of my life.“Isn’t that Athena?” I asked myself, but I knew that I wasn’t that ol
Her Report
IRON’S POVAthena eventually returned the next evening, and as expected, she came right to my chamber.“What happened?” I asked her.I had been so worried sick, and the only reason why I didn’t leave the Organization to check things out for myself was because I was busy checking out all the things that Blake had mentioned, and it did most of my day.The moment I saw Athena, I became filled with deep relief.“I have been working,” Athena answered, bowing her head. “Lord Dante,” she added softly.“This wasn’t the agreement,” I said, trying so hard not to show how worried I had been, but it was really difficult.It was as though Athena could read right through me because I could see her lips twitching lightly.“Don’t you even dare,” I warned her, and she thinned her lips to prevent her from laughing. “What is amusing?” I asked her.“You have been worried sick, but I wonder who you have been worried about; Nesse or me,” Athena teased.“Don’t start with me right now,” I warned her. “You ne
Get Ready For War
HADES’ POVThe question I asked Iron was an intentional one, and I looked at him, waiting for a lie.“No, I don’t,” Iron responded.Just exactly what I suspected.“And you haven’t asked her? She goes out every morning, and she has been doing that for days now,” I pushed.Iron had the audacity to look clueless.“Why would I ask her about something like that when she isn’t even a child?” He asked me in return. “Athena has just as much freedom as every other Titan here,” he added.“I would think that as the head of this Organization, you would at least, show concern for the activities of some of these ones under your leadership,” I said.“Is that why you are here?” Iron asked me, and I raised my hands up.I gave up on the conversation.However, I realized that Iron wasn’t being very honest with me. Granted, he took me by surprise when he revealed that he was going to see the Seer. That was even what I had expected him to lie about, considering our history with the Seer, but he hadn’t.Un
Scandalous
NESSE’S POVI stood in front of my mirror and looked at my expression.The last couple of days had been crazy. Pressmen and reporters have been tailing me everywhere, seeking interviews, but I had deliberately ignored every one of them.“Nesse is a pretender and a liar. Days after she stated with confidence that her mother wasn’t going to marry Arthur Loreson, Jules goes right ahead and marries him barely a week after the death of his wife.”“Nesse and her mother, Jules, are both gold diggers, and for now, their victim is Arthur Loreson, a poor grieving husband who definitely does not know what he is doing.”“Isn’t it surprising that just about two days after Nesse went to visit Arthur in his house, her mother weds him? She never disclosed what she went to his house to do, but from the turnout of things, it was obvious that she went there to pressure him into setting a wedding date.”“She is not the woman everyone thinks she is.”“Nesse cannot be trusted. She is a predator.”The news
Emergency!
ATHENA’S POVI reached for Nesse before her body got to the ground.“What’s wrong with her?” The man she had been speaking to asked.“Call an ambulance!” I yelled in urgency.Most of the men simply sat still as though they didn’t give a shit about her. Actually, judging by their reaction since Nesse walked into the room, they didn’t care, but I was surprised that they could display it shamelessly and callously.Including the one who was sitting on her seat.The man she had been speaking to called an ambulance, and they arrived sooner than later. Nesse was still breathing, and that gave me some hope.The paramedics carefully and hurriedly at the same time took her into their ambulance.“You can’t ride with us,” they told me.I didn’t counter them or banter words with them as I simply hurried into one of Nesse’s convoys, and they followed the ambulance closely until we got to the hospital.“Hurry!” I yelled with urgency as soon as we got to the hospital.Nesse was placed in a bed and wh
The Wrong Thing
IRON’S POVHades and Blake already left to destroy Vince, and I was deeply worried and troubled.“Maybe I should have gone with them,” I muttered to myself.Alone, I would have been able to kill Vince. They all knew that individually, they weren’t a match for me, which was why they came together to form a war against the Organization, but I couldn’t because I only just return to take my place, and it wasn’t time yet for me.Waiting until it was time to start handling these assignments might take longer than expected, and I didn’t want to wait when I could destroy them. Waiting could also mean giving them the grace to plan another war.I had never been this worried about Hades executing an assignment, and even now that he had a firm backing in the case of Blake, but something inside of me was just too restless to ignore.“Lord Dante!” One of the Titans called as he hurried into my chamber.“What is it?” I asked him.He was so frantic that I feared for a millisecond that the Organizatio
Full Force
HADES’ POVBlake and I arrived at Vince’s revealed hideout and we proceeded to go in carefully. I noticed how determined Blake had been.If only he knew that this would be his last day on earth.I already prepared the words in my head and how I would break the news to Iron. He would be devastated, but it would be for the best.The hideout was a long, dark, and dangerous tunnel.“Let me be in front while you follow behind,” I told Blake, expecting him to object.I had to make everything seem real even though he wouldn’t be alive to tell the story.“Okay,” Blake easily accepted, much to my astonishment.Was he scared?Within the Organization, he had been acting as though he had all the powers of all the realms and he could take on anything and anyone. Well, I guessed it had dawned on him that he wasn’t dealing with his fellow Titans.This was his very first mission outside the walls of the Organization, and unfortunately, it was going to be his last as well.I began to walk through the
