Revenge and Redemption: Aaron's Tale of Resilience Chapter sixty-four
Aaron drummed his knuckles against the tabletop as Helen sighed heavily. "Listen, I don't know what else to tell you." He burst out. "They're not the same."Helen pressed her lips together. She was fully made up for the cameras, the heavy, pancake makeup hiding the lovely glow her skin had developed these past few days. Seeing that glow was one of the best things about sharing a room with her. The other best things included seeing her bare toes peeking out from under the crisp white sheets as she slept diagonally across the huge bed, listening to her mumble herself awake before she realized he was listening, and watching her brush her hair away from her neck before she twisted it up into that bun she always wore.But thinking nice thoughts about sharing a room with her wasn't how this scene was supposed to play out. From behind the cameras, Catherine, their director, mimed snapping her fingers at him and then drawing her finger across her throat. He rolled his eyes and sighed.Right.

He moved closer to Helen and pressed his hands to hers. "Can you stop talking for a second?"She blinked. "What do you mean?""Look around." He threaded his fingers into hers and gave her a gentle tug, leading her deeper into the garden and further from the camera's prying eyes. "This is incredible isn't it?" Deep green leaves twined upwards in a canopy of green. Bright orange hibiscus bobbed like Japanese lanterns floating in a deep green sky. "It amazes me," he exhaled. "I've seen the world, but mostly my view is the same. If I'm working, it doesn't register to me whether I'm in Paris or Florida. But sometimes, when I get out of work and look around—" He caught himself as her eyes widened."That wasn't part of the script, right? Sorry about that."She looked longingly upward, sad that she couldn't express her love to this man on camera for the whole world to see. "I understand you." She smiled up at him softly. He took her other hand in his, and she looked up at him. Her eyes da

"Cassie!" Jeremy called. He puffed across the sand in pursuit of his partner, with a cameraman close on his heels. "That's not what I meant!""Then what did you mean?" Cassie shouted. She whirled around, tears streaming down her face as she jammed her finger into Jeremy's chest. "Go on! Tell me exactly what you meant when you said that the wristwatch, one I spent a lot on, is ugly."Her chest heaved, and she wiped a tear away before it dropped down her nose, trying hard to control herself. Jeremy looked helplessly. Feigned looking helpless rather. "I…uh…Why gift me today, when my birthday was last week? Did you forget?" he goaded her, with a side look at the camera.Aaron felt sick. Cassie and Jeremy were fellow housemates in the reality show and their drama annoyed the shit out of him. "No!" Cassie shouted. "Why are you even asking me this? You know we agreed to postpone your birthday celebration until we got here." She screwed up her lips. "This is just like you, Jerry. You neve

"Hey! Aaron!" The light wind carried her voice to him. He turned around to see her smiling at him and walked over to her, his white teeth flashing in the sun as he smiled at her in greeting.Helen touched her cheeks and just as she suspected, she was grinning like an idiot.Dammit. She had known this man for almost a year and his smile still made her fawn. "What's with Jeremy and Cassie?" She asked, looking around for cameras. "You know... Just the usual drama." He replied.He looked at her and his lips quirked upward, in a lopsided grin. The kind he gave when he wanted to tease her."I don't know how, but you somehow got even more beautiful than before."She rolled her eyes at him and smiled, enjoying his compliment. "Stop," she protested. "You're trying to distract me.""Distract you from what?" "From hearing the gossip. So shoot. What's with Jeremy and Cassie?""Cassie got upset about something." As Aaron met her eyes with patience, her"You didn't upset her, did you??" she sque

"Quick, act normal," Aaron whispered as he set her down. Helen hid a laugh behind her hand and then waved to the two cameramen who were following close behind Jeremy and Cassie —now holding hands and gazing adoringly at each other once more—"Let's get you cleaned up" he murmured in her ear, making her shiver excitedly. He put his hand on her shoulder and waved as well.Then scooped her right back up again and dashed into the house."What if Cath sees?" Helen asked. But her fretting was little more than a reflex at this point. Right now, she didn't care one bit about whether they got caught on camera being all lovey-dovey. She just needed to see exactly what Aaron had in mind when he said he wanted to get her “all cleaned off.” She shivered in anticipation again."Cold?" He asked as he hurried down the hall. Helen was impressed at how he didn't break his stride or act winded in any way, even when she had put on about 3kg in the last month. She was even more impressed when he held on
Revenge and Redemption: Aaron's Tale of Resilience Chapter sixty-nine
"Turn around, pumpkin."She turned and pressed her body against the shower wall but he pulled her back against him. He lifted her leg so that she was barely braced on one foot, and then in one smooth thrust he entered her from behind.She gasped and sagged against him. Her back was against his chest, her head against his shoulder. With every thrust, Aaron let out a string of filthy promises, and dirty talk that only made her burn hotter for him. She believed it when he told her he could fuck her like this all night long. He had done it countless times before.She complied eagerly when he begged her to scream louder. She welcomed it when he ordered her to come all over his cock, and then she did exactly what he told her to.When the orgasm took her, she went boneless, surrendering to the sensations completely because she was secure in the knowledge that he would catch her. He held her braced against him as she screamed his name over and over again. Then he pushed her so that she was

"This is the best news. The most amazing news ever!" Cath squealed as she yanked off her headset. Aaron's lips parted as his head came up in shock. He felt his heart come to a complete stop. This was the opposite of great. This was the worst possible thing.He wanted to slap the annoying smile from Cath's face. How could he have been so careless and stupid?He'd been so wrapped up in the magic of being with Helen he'd forgotten that there were cameras everywhere, recording everything he said and did. He'd let their huge secret drop with barely a thought.And the last thing they needed now was for the world to know about their baby. He dropped his gaze and stepped forward. "I'm sorry," he said as he shielded Helen with his body from the cameramen who seemed to be swarming in from every angle. "I should have never said anything. I'll take full responsibility for that footage if you strike it from the show. I'll forfeit my fees, whatever you need just… don't air it please."Cath's ey

"What." she hissed, "was that?" When he didn't answer, she made a beeline for the deck and planted herself right in his sightline. "Just left me twisting in the wind, huh?""If you had something to say, you should have said it yourself," he said. The muscle at his jaw jumped as he ground his teeth and looked away from her.But Helen wasn't having any of his brooding nonsense. She gripped his face in her hands and twisted until he was forced to look her in the eye. "This isn't just about me. It's about us. All three of us."He seemed to consider what she said.In a few minutes, he was in the midst of a group of hastily assembled producers. "If this is what you're offering, then I'm going to do what I can to make it happen." He glanced at Helen. She gave him a lop-sided smile and nodded.A collective sigh of relief went up. Cath slammed her hand on the table. "All right then!" she beamed excitedly into her ever-present headset. "Let's make it happen, people. We lost a whole day of shoo

Ariel stood by the desk, watching Lucas with an air of suspicion. He seemed to be acting strange and she couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. “Mr Churchill left a while ago," she said, her voice carefully neutral. Lucas’s brow furrowed and his lips pursed in thought. He seemed anxious, almost twitchy, and it set her on edge. “Is there anything you'd like me to tell him when he returns?" Lucas paused, his expression unreadable. “No, there's nothing," he said, his voice tight. “Thanks” Ariel nodded, but she couldn't shake the feeling that something wasn't quite right. She watched Lucas leave her desk, there was something up with the way he asked for Aaron’s presence Finally, she couldn't take it anymore, so she made a straight dial towards Aaron. Helen could feel the warmth of Aaron's body as he wrapped his arms around her. She let herself relax into his embrace, feeling safe and protected. “Are you hurt anywhere?" Aaron asked, his voice gentle but urgent. Helen shook h

"The press conference has been getting a lot of positive feedback, sir," Ariel said, looking at the numbers on her screen. “Views are well into the millions, and the comments have been overwhelmingly positive." Aaron looked up from his laptop, a slight smile playing on his lips. “That's great to hear," he said, his voice warm with approval. "You did a fantastic job putting that together." Ariel blushed at the praise, feeling a rush of pride. "Thank you, sir," she said, her voice full of gratitude. "I'm glad to be of service."As Aaron looked at Ariel, his eyes caught on a small bump in her stomach. It was barely noticeable, but it was there. And it reminded him of Helen when she was pregnant with their son. He remembered the joy he had felt, the anticipation of becoming a father, and then the thought of having another baby with his ex-wife. He pushed the thoughts away, not wanting to dwell on the past. But they lingered, just beneath the surface.Ariel cleared her throat, breaking t

As Anna sipped her wine, she couldn't help but feel a sense of dread. She was surrounded by opulence and luxury, but she knew that the man she was with was evil. Henry studied her, his eyes narrowing.“You only ever visit when you need my help," he said, his voice low and dangerous. "What do you want from me this time?"Anna's fingers curled around the stem of her wine glass, and she took a deep breath. Anna smirked at Henry's words, allowing him to bask in his pride. He dared to imply that she was weak, without even saying it outright. But Anna knew better. She was a woman who had been through hell and back, and she wasn't about to let an old man like Henry tell her what she was or wasn't."It would be the other way around, Mr. Neville," she purred, a faux smile on her lips. Henry's eyebrows shot up in confusion. He wasn't sure what Anna was getting at.“You're the one who needs my help," she said, her voice cold and confident. Henry couldn't help but laugh. "You've got to be kidding

News reports of Dragon's image flashed across the screen, the word "WANTED" in bold letters underneath. A reward of a billion naira was offered to anyone who could provide information that would lead to his capture. Grandpa Adolph shook his head, a look of concern on his face. "That's an awful lot of money to put on a murderer's head," he said, his voice heavy with worry. "What if someone gets hurt in the process?""I know it's a lot of money," Aaron replied, his brow furrowed. "But we have to do everything we can to bring him to justice and also whoever is instructing to kill. He's a dangerous man, and we can't let him get away with what he's done. I know it's risky, but it's the only way we can make sure he's caught and punished for his crimes."Grandpa Adolph sighed, knowing that Aaron was right. But he couldn't shake the feeling of dread that was settling over him. He knew that this was only the beginning and that things were about to get much worse. “I hope you know what you

“Sit down, boy” Henry barked, his voice filled with irritation. Lucas was pacing the room, his hands running through his hair, his face pale and drawn. He looked like he was about to have a panic attack. “I can't," Lucas said, his voice barely above a whisper. “I can't calm down!" Lucas exclaimed, his frustration spilling over. "Your lackey killed someone! The plan was to beat him up, not to shoot him !" He glared at Dragon, who stood sheepishly next to Henry.Henry's face hardened, his eyes blazing with anger. "So, are you guilty?" he demanded, his voice cold and unforgiving.Lucas looked down at the floor, unable to meet Henry's gaze. The truth was, he was guilty. He had been a part of this, even if he hadn't intended for things to go this far. But he couldn't bring himself to say it out loud. "The inspector deserved what he got," Henry sneered, his words dripping with hatred. "If he dies, it's a win for us. He won't be able to tell anyone what he knows." Dragon nodded ea

Roger, one of Henry's men, ushered Aaron into the mansion. The sound of splashing water filled the air, as Henry swam in the pool. The old man Neville has been having a good time since he came out of jail. “Mr. Churchill, it's nice to see you again," Henry called out, his voice carrying over the water. “Care to join me for a swim?" Aaron felt his temper rising. He wasn't here to socialize with the enemy. He was here for answers. “I’m not here for a swim, Mr. Neville," he said, his voice tight with anger. "I'm here to ask you about Dragon." Henry's expression turned serious suddenly, worried, and anxious in a rush but decided not to show the fullness of his anxiety, and he got out of the pool, dripping water onto the marble floor. A maid brought Henry a towel, which he used to dry off his dripping hair and body. His boxers were soaked through, revealing the outline of his genitals beneath the thin fabric. Aaron averted his gaze, feeling a bit uncomfortable.Henry seemed obliviou
