It was 2 AM, and the air of the Blackwood Estate was calm and filled with quietness. Ares had just concluded half the pile of the load work he had and had decided that it was his chance to go visit Elena in the dungeon.

Ares walked to Camila's room to make sure she was asleep and tugged up. He pushes open the door peeping before getting in.

Her light snores signified to him that she was truly asleep. He helped her cover up with the blanket.

Camila stirred a bit snuggling more into the blanket as she slept.

Ares shook his head fighting back a chuckle so as not to wake her up and made his way out of the room.

He stopped by the kitchen warming some food to take to Elena, not forgetting the first aid kit.

Having assembled all that, he made sure that the path of the Dungeon was all cleared out and no guard was lurking around taking it as his queue to go in.

He unlocked the gates of the dungeon stepping in and shutting it off with a lock, just immediately.

He then proceeded further in

    Two years later"Kill him," Ares says, cutting off from the call. He heaved out a breath, walking out of the room.He left for England two days ago after lying to Elena that he had some work-related issues and would be back as soon as he could for Ryan's fifth birthday.How time flies. Just like yesterday, the duo were on each other's necks wanting nothing to do with one another, and today, all he could say or do was be more grateful to fate.Ares left for England to finalize everything with his daughter's foster parent. He had paid them off handsomely for giving his daughter the best parental care, judging by her behavior and character. He also promised them that Nova would come to visit.Ares still hasn't informed Elena about it; he wanted it to be a surprise. His family isn't complete without having her as well.She was born out of the mistake they made years ago; call her a beautiful mistake that he'll forever cherish."Master" Henry cuts him out of his train of thought."Yes He,

    Russor regretted leaving Ares there. He could have finished him off, when he had the chance to.Why had he not loaded the gun, before now? He must make sure that Ares does not survive it, because it would be easy for him to manipulate Allison to signing everything to him.He had recently found out about Ryan, and didn't know know him, that was why he had put Allison's name as his next of kin. It was temporary, because as the rules stated, he needed to have a son, who would inherit all of it.When he had found out about Ryan, things did not go on well as he planned, so he had no time to change certain things.If he could not kill Ares, he would need to have him in his custody, so as to get Allison, who was softhearted, to sign everything in his name."Do everything you have to do to make sure he does not make it out alive," Russor instructed.He had lost the chance to kill him, but it didn't mean he was too late to do it. It was all because of Ares that his right to freedom of movem

    Ares was restless. He tried everything possible to find out Russor's location, but every time he tried, it kept saying 'not found'. The pictures of his wife and son were still vivid in his mind. He could not get the picture out of his head. They kept flashing in, whenever he tried to think of a solution.He had asked Allison to join the men to track their location, and he also did that because he wanted to be alone.His mind was in chaos. He was panicking.If he didn't act fast, by the this time, tomorrow, he might receive a photo of.."No!" He yelled, dreading the thought of receiving their corpse. He would never have forgiven himself, because it would be his fault, partially.There was nothing he could do, but surrender the inheritance to him, and devise a way to run away with his family. He just wanted this nonsense to end.He prepared all the documents that was needed to be handed over to Russor. He stared at all of them, like he was trying to imprint it on his mind.All his fath

    Russor was not stupid. The ring alone could not do so much. It was only a way to lure Elena into his lair, get hold of her, and of course, make Ares hopeless.She had suffered an external bleeding from the blow, making blood to trickle down the side of her face. She was tied up, and thrown beside her son, who laid helplessly on the floor.Russor was an epitome of a heartless demon. He could not even pity the 4-year-old boy!He asked the man to take a perfect picture of the mother and son in all angles, and sent it to Ares.He added a caption to it, which said: "How do you like this present? Any further delay, and you'll be gifted their dead bodies. I'm sure they are more important to you than that inheritance, be smart, Ares. Be smart."Allison came back from the black web. She had been there for a while, trying to track Russor's location, but it was all in vain.She needed to check up on the duo, and when she got the house, she found it strange as to how quiet it was.Could it be th

    "Alright, then. Great choice you have made, Elena! You have less than a day," he said."What?" "I give you 12 hours. I believe that you are a smart woman, you can get it done in 6 hours, even. Once you get it, call me, and I will send you the location. Remember, no one. I mean, no one at all should know about this," he voiced sinisterly."Do not harm my son, please. I will bring the ring to you, just don't do anything to him," she begged, feeling a sense of guilt, for being so irresponsible."Get to it, already. Your time has already started. You now have 10 hours to go, if I were you, I would not say anything further. Good luck!" He said, and let out a wry laughter.The phone beeped. He had ended the call, leaving her to devise a plan to get the ring.She sat on the bed, and didn't feel comfortable, so she began to pace around the room, racking her head, trying to come up with something.How was she going to get the ring? For one, Ares would not give it her if she demanded it, and h

    Elena stepped back a little, shocked at his confession. She had not expected him to say something like that. Not even in her wildest dreams, did she think Ares would actually profess his feelings for her."Wh…what did you say?" She asked again, to confirm that she was not dreaming.He looked into her mesmerizing eyes, captured by its ocean blue orbs, feeling entrapped. He moved some inches close to her. Subconsciously, she moved back, until she hit the wall, where she could no longer move any further.He smirked, trapping her in between his arms, as his tall figure dominated her little frame.Their eyes were locked in each other's world. He diverted his gaze, and held her hand, gently.His caressed it with so much care and tenderness, as he proclaimed his love for her, once more."I love you, Ares."She opened her mouth to speak, but her words failed her. She just didn't know what to say, or maybe, she was afraid to see it.He lifted up her chin, and drew closer to plant a kiss on h
