A Man’s Weakness
IRON’S POVI returned to the Organization worse than I left, and I was fuming.“Nesse is lying to me,” I said to myself.Well, not about whether or not she still had the pregnancy, but who the father was. Athena already told me what I needed to know, and Nesse being so defensive about it was enough confirmation that I might just be the father.The real question was if she had successfully taken it out.From Nesse’s house back to the Organization, the hurt I was feeling inside my chest kept intensifying at the thought of Nesse taking out what belonged to me.Usually, I should be relieved, considering the fact that I didn’t want it initially, but that wasn’t how I was feeling now. The hurt was tearing at my gut and threatening to overwhelm me. The last time I felt this kind of pain was when I held Hera’s lifeless body.“How could she do this to me?” I kept asking myself.I felt the sting of tears in my eyes, but I would be damned if I cried. Only Hera deserved my tears. However, this o
A New Enemy
NESSE’S POV“I can’t believe he would have the audacity to come here and ask me that kind of question,” I muttered angrily after Iron left. “How did he even freaking get in?” I asked myself.Not wanting to worry my head alone in my bedroom, I went downstairs and called my security guard.He came in, looking worried and skeptical.“Ma’am, is everything okay?” He asked me.“It would be if you freaking did your job!” I bellowed at him.Fear crossed his eyes, and he knew that I could easily get him fired if I wanted to, which I was already considering right away.First of all, he couldn’t even account for how the three men whose bodies were found in my living room got in, and now, Iron came in and left and he still didn’t do his job.“Where have you been?” I asked him.“At the gate, ma’am,” he answered.“Don’t play games with me,” I warned him.“I have been there, ma’am, I swear it,” he told me. “Although…” he continued, but his voice trailed off.“Although what?” I asked impatiently.“I
Only For The Money
JULES’S POVGetting Arthur to plead for us to return back to the city at night was a task I never saw myself doing, but it eventually worked.“I don’t want any favors from him,” Arthur had countered proudly.“You don’t have a choice right now,” I told him.“We have already been handed tickets to leave,” he had reminded me. “And arrive in the city in broad daylight so that everyone would see our shame?” I had asked Arthur with irritation. “You might have lost your shame, but I haven’t. I am not going to let Benita’s friends make mockery of me,” I had added sternly.“I don’t think you should be thinking about them right now,” Arthur had said. “If we don’t take this free opportunity, we will be stranded in a foreign country,” he had added in a warning tone.“And I would rather be stranded here than go back and be the ridicule of all,” I had responded.“Then you will be staying back alone!” Arthur had declared.“Fine!” I had responded, and he knew that I meant every single word I had jus
Stubborn Woman
IRON’S POVThis wasn’t how I intended to have the conversation with Nesse, but on the other hand, I didn’t have any proper words prepared in my head.I even doubted that there was any proper way to present what I wanted to say to her.Also, it was ironical that the last time I was in this very room, Nesse hadn’t known. She had slept through my short visit, but this time around, she woke up even before my feet could enter the room. I noticed that she looked slightly different.Maybe I wouldn’t have noticed that if Athena hadn’t told me about the pregnancy, but now that I knew, she just looked different, but then again, I could be wrong because Nesse might have terminated the pregnancy.She was still in shock from my last statement.Nesse wasn’t a woman who could easily get thrown off balance. She was always prepared for anything and everything, including the ones she never thought was going to happen, so this must really be very deep for her. I also understood her shock anyway.This wa
A Man In My Bedroom
NESSE’S POVAfter having my bath, I stood in front of my mirror naked, and I stared at my stomach.“I don’t want you,” I said deeply.I was alone in my room, so the words came out of my mouth, and I meant every single one of it. I didn’t want the baby, and as I stared at my stomach, I could feel resentment bubbling inside of me.The pregnancy was just two weeks and a few days, but I could already see it marring my stomach.What would I say when the swell began to show? How would I be able to keep it away from the eyes of everyone? For someone who was running away from scandal, this was worse than anything that could have ever happened to me.“You are going to ruin things for me,” I said again. “If only you would just leave me alone,” I added.I couldn’t even touch my stomach because I didn’t want to have any form of connection with whatever is growing inside of me. Even when I was bathing, I could barely wash my stomach, and it wasn’t because the doctor said that the pregnancy was a d
Another Regret
IRON’S POVImpatiently, I waited for night to come upon us. I also waited for Athena to return.I had been walking around the Organization, trying hard enough to find the missing Titan, but there were no traces of him anywhere, which even left me worried and confused.Where could he have gone?If he had gone out of this Organization, there was no way I wouldn’t have known about it. I definitely would have known. So, if he didn’t go out, where then was he?I tried to not think that he might have been killed already, but with what had been happening, that seemed like the only thing that kept coming to my mind.When Athena eventually arrived, she came right to me as expected.Even though I was worried sick about the missing Titan, and I had been busy trying to find him and also find out who or what was responsible for this, somehow, my head also made room to think about Nesse and the pregnancy.Athena hadn’t given me a proper response on her termination status, and that made me even more
