The entire room fell silent at once, they weren’t expecting Arthur of all people to be the one out to kill Oliver.They were all in the same academy and while Arthur always moved around with Jonathan, he remained friends with Oliver and they never let anything come between them.“What the fuck do you think you’re doing?!” Lucian asked, his surprise evident in his voice but Arthur’s head fell.He couldn’t lift his head to look at them because he knew the magnitude of his betrayal. They were all one before, what happened?He opened his mouth to speak but nothing could come out of it as he looked down at his feet. He couldn’t tell Oliver and the rest who had sent him or he was going to be killed.“You were trying to kill me,” Oliver added like Arthur didn’t know what he was trying to do, “who sent you?” He asked, knowing fully well that Arthur would never make a decision like that on his own.An uncomfortable silence filled the air as the trio stared at each other before looking at Arthu
The chase between Megan and the car was intense, fear soon engulfed her and she couldn’t stop breathing hard.Her breath soon caught in her chest and her heart raced as she kept looking at the side view mirror to see if she lost the car. Picking up her phone, she desperately went through her contact and stopped when she got to Oliver’s number.She eventually remembered that no matter how much she called him, his number wasn’t going to get through and the car was catching up to her. She looked back and her eyes widened in fear.Closing her eyes, she stepped on the gas harder than she did the first time as she sped on the highway. It felt like she was the only one on the road and wanted to turn back but her fear wouldn’t let her.The sound of her phone ringing jolted her out of her thoughts and she saw the caller ID boldly, she was glad to know that her brother was the one calling her and she wondered why she didn’t think of him.“Ezra!” She called as soon as she picked up the call, “I
“I say we kill him right here right now,” Lucian said, still not understanding why his brother was choosing to keep Arthur alive.“We can’t kill him, he doesn’t have a choice, they have his fiancée and if he doesn’t kill me, they’re going to kill her.”“Him.” Arthur corrected and Lucian and Oliver’s head quickly turned in his direction as they both raised an eyebrow.They never saw it in him or thought he could turn out to be gay but that's besides the point right now and what they should be worrying about right now.It felt as though something clicked and Lucian suddenly remembered Robin, he pondered on whether or not he should tell Oliver because he hadn’t quite recovered yet but kept it to himself.He was going to say something about it as soon as he’s sure that Oliver is strong enough but for now, they have to find the grandmaster that’s betraying them and wants Oliver dead.The sight of Oliver untying Arthur put a halt to Lucian’s thought and he quickly rushed to his brother’s sid
“What?” Oliver almost yelled, stopping in his tracks and turning to face Lucian, “since when and how do you know?” He asked. “I don’t know how long it’s been but I just got to know about it yesterday when I went to see her about what to do,” Lucian explained.Oliver couldn’t believe that Robin had been kidnapped, he sat on the bed and closed his eyes before groaning frustratedly.How many times would the people after him keep going after the people he loves or has grown to like? First it was Megan getting kidnapped by Jonathan and now it’s Robin, the one person who had saved his life multiple times.“How did you know?” Oliver asked with a sigh, he needed to do something to get Robin out of whatever trouble she might be in because the lady thing he can afford is losing.“I went over there and I got to know that she was already trying to find a way to neutralize the virus,” Lucian explained and then went ahead to tell Oliver about how he saw a message on the door and then on the phone.
“I came to see things for myself just to be sure and here you are, standing in front of me.” Hex finished as he supposed in front of Jackson.The sight of the man standing in front of them was funny to Lucian and he couldn’t help but burst out laughing at the sight.He’d thought that he had seen a lot of things after being in China for years but apparently he hasn’t seen enough because the man in front of him is made of iron yet he looks so human.“Are you human or a robot?” He couldn’t help but ask and it was now Oliver’s turn to burst out laughing. The way they were teasing Hex got him angry and as he made his palm into a fist, he hit the ground really hard that everywhere shook.Paul lifted his head to see that Jackson and Lucian were back and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He had asked them to leave and lay low, why did they come back?How were they even able to navigate their way through until they got back to the hospital.“I’m going to guess, you’re Hex?” Oliver a
Megan felt really happy, her heart was at ease and so calm that for a moment she’d forgotten about everything going on in her life.Spending time with her brother seemed like just what she needed and some time without the men hovering over her gave her a sense of peace.“It must be so distracting having those men following you all around like you’re a baby.” Ezra’s voice jolted her out of her thoughts and she smiled.She set her fork down and lifted her gaze to meet Ezra’s, she knew that he didn’t really understand even though he tries to act like he does.She also knew that something was going on with Oliver that he didn’t want to tell her about probably because he thought that it was going to be safe for her.Megan silently prayed and hoped that he was alright, she’d made up her mind to go to the Philippines and find him there but there was no way for her to do that since she had no idea where he was.Did he really go on a vacation with his brother or was there something more to it?
“Fine,” Megan smiled, “I’m not making any promises but I’ll think about it.” She finished. Ezra was excited to hear that and Megan paid before the both of them made their way out of the restaurant.The rest of the day was fun for them as they went to different places for sightseeing and Megan didn’t know how much time had gone until she pulled her phone from her bag.She gasped when she saw the amount of calls she’d missed from Arianna. Ezra and Megan decided that they’ve had enough fun for the day and Megan decided to go home.“If you’re going to be staying here for a while, you should ask Clara to join you.” She suggested as they both made their ways to the parking lot.“I will,” Ezra smiled as he hugged his sister, “will you come see me tomorrow?” He asked and Megan raised an eyebrow.She really needed to start thinking about resuming back to the hospital and she also wanted to get herself checked.“You can come with that friend of yours and that way she wouldn’t be worried about y
Megan sighed, she stared down at the number and she didn’t know what her answer was going to be. She felt like she’s been hiding it for a while and the least she can do is to let him know about his child.Even if he really has a secret family somewhere, she’s going to be at peace knowing that she never hid something like this from him and that was all that matters.“I was going to give it a little time but you and Ezra know already,” Megan explained, “I think it’s only fair if I let him know about it too.” She finished.Arianna sighed and wished her good-luck before leaving the room for her. She was worried about Megan but she knew that Megan could take care of herself.Sighing, she sank into the chair and put her favorite show on. She’d overheard Megan talking about her pregnancy to a doctor and Megan’s countenance told her that it wasn’t good news.She’d asked her grandfather what to do but Lord Tate only asked her to stay out of it and only do something when Megan asks for help.In
