Allison gulped down a lump as she knocked on Elena's door room She hated that her brother assigned her such responsibility. Why couldn't he do it himself? Why does it have to be her? Allison wonders why she agreed to do this in the first place. She can't even imagine Elena's reaction after presenting her the divorce papers. If it was some months back, Elena would have gladly singed them off but right now, Allison is very sure it's the last thing Elena would want. She's still wondering why Ares had to lead her on all along. Why didn't he sign the divorce papers when he should have and when Elena was desperately in need of it? Allison knocked again snapping out of her thoughts seeing as Elena is yet to respond. Maybe she should leave, and gather up enough guts to face Elena with such disheartening news. She shakes her head turning in her shoe just then Elena slipped the door open.Allison's heart skipped a beat, her hands clenching into a fist."Allison " Elena calls out barely a
"I'm going to fucking kill you if you don't start speaking!" Ares fires at Cristain's almost lifeless figure. Torturing Cristain has become a daily habit for Ares, it seems to be the only thing that gives him absolute pleasure. Cristian is the sole cause of all that is and has happened in Ares's life, well maybe part of it but right now Ares feels blaming Cristian and inflicting him half as much pain as Ares had to undergo, will do him good. It all started with Cristian DuPont sending him to jail. What if it never happened? Would Ares continue to keep leaving the lie he had to for twenty-seven years of his life? All his life he looked up to one man and that same man only turned out to be a goddamn betrayer who had only used Ares as a means to get what he wants. The throne? The wealth? He could have it all, all of it if he was a good father to Ares. Russor did raise Ares right and gave him everything a son could demand from his father but seeing Russor for who he is, has carved
Ares stepped out of the car and headed for the entrance he so badly hoped that Allison's words weren't exactly the truth as he had already fantasized about being a father. Camila is pregnant with his child, is it?It can't be, she can't possibly go behind his back and do that for him. But did she drug him? Is she even diagnosed with cancer or is it a total lie?Different thoughts ran through his mind as he walked into the house."Ares" he hears his name being called out pausing his steps. Henry walked towards him standing in front of him, "There's a problem" he said. Isn't there always one?What was it now? Ares Is sick and tired of having to hear bad news all the fucking time. It's too much for him to handle.He has still not come to terms with the death of Apollo. Russor being a backstabber, the man who raised him and taught him how to be humane is now at war with him.How absurd."What is it," Ares asked impatiently waiting for Henry to say what he had to say and get out of his
Elena walked out of the bathroom using the back of her hand to wipe off the water stained on her lips. She hated how she felt every morning. The morning sickness is beginning to take a big toll on her which is emotionally draining judging by the situation at hand. Elena barely gets some sleep as well. Most times she'd stay awake late at night throwing her guts out while silently crying in pain for assistance. This is the point in her life where she needs Ares the most not only her but their baby but sadly it's the other way around. Her eyes flicker to clock, It's just 4 pm and she's not even done parking her stuff. Since the divorce papers had been signed, Elena decided to move out before having someone, Ares in particular tell her to. She barely gets enough to eat and what she manages to digest gets thrown up in the toilet seat. Who said motherhood was easy? Although the baby in her womb wasn't making things easy for her, she still felt the love and connection a mother felt at
"What time is the meeting starting?"Ares asked as he stepped down from the plane."In an hour" Emily responded looking at her wristwatch. They came down to Seattle for work-related issues. It took a lot of convincing from Allison to have Ares come down here by himself.He intended on sending Emily on his behalf but Allison had reasoned with him stating the importance of securing the deal. Damn her! She's good at what she does. "Alright," he says as they settle into the car park for them. "Take us to the nearest eatery" Ares orders heaving out a sigh as he leans back resting his head for a moment.The rude was a silent one not until Ares decided to ask."Do you enjoy working for me?" Directing the question to Emily that was busy on her phone. "Uh.." She paused unsure of what to say."Don't lie to me, be very honest" he warns feeling her uneasiness resonating."Well you may be tough sir and want things done with absolute perfection but most times you're a little bit too hard on you
She rushed out of the Uber that had dropped her off at the hospital leaving Ethan behind. Different thoughts ran through her mind as she thought of the worst-case scenario. Tears soon soaked her eyes as she wandered around the hospital Area till she got to the main entrance. She rushed inside the hospital bumping into someone on her way. The Farmilar scent hit her nostrils urging her brows to scrunch as she almost lost balance. Having better things to worry about, "I'm sorry" she apologized walking off, deciding she was just overthinking things.There's no way on earth, Ares would be here, that's impossible. Elena stopped by the reception meeting it empty.She growls in annoyance more panic surging through her silently praying that Ryan is right.She couldn't lose him, nothing must have happened to him. The last time she checked, he was perfectly fine. She dropped him off at the daycare in the morning, then what must have gone wrong?Elena snapped out of her thoughts sighting Krist
Ares ended the call deciding to go back and check up on the kid. His meeting that he was supposed to attend has been rescheduled to tomorrow, it's been a long day for him and all he needed now is a good rest which was something greatly impossible in his busy life.He walked back to the ICU meeting with a scene. "If anything happens to my son, I promise you'll pay for it! Do you fucking hear me?" The woman fired clutching onto the caretaker's collar that looked ten times mortified.Ryan's mother's here? When did she get here then? Her voice sounded familiar almost as though it was Elena but who was he kidding, it's not her. He's not even supposed to be thinking about her, it's not right to do so. He has already made his choice and let her go, and he does hope that wherever she is now, she finds happiness. One that he couldn't give her. Part of him missed her. Her absence had thought and made him feel a lot that he never thought he'd be feeling but here he is, not a day goes by tha
Ares stared at Elena as she munched in the takeaway he had gotten her to eat after a lot of cajoling she had finally agreed to take in something. "You still haven't answered my question, Ares," Elena says keeping that food aside. Ares was still trying to digest the fact that Elena was Ryan's mother. Meaning if that's so, then where was the father?She got married after the divorce! What has been going on in her life these past few years?He also has a lot of questions to ask but he knew Elena to be a strongheaded person, he doubts that she'd listen to him not to talk or answer him.He's starting to regret not keeping tabs on her now. The thought of her being with another man made his blood boil which shouldn't be happening but he couldn't help it. He never thought things would end like they did with them. They never got along, right and something like this was bound to happen but Ares never thought that Elena would move on so quickly. Did she miss him?Does she think about him? A
