“What are you doing here?” Oliver laughed as he hugged Lucian. Lucian was his brother in the academy and since they both got entrusted with different duties they barely saw each other for years.Lucian had to go to China. Megan couldn’t do anything but watch as both brothers exchanged pleasantries. It felt nice for her to see Oliver finally laughing genuinely.“I came here for you, bozo.” Lucian answered amidst laughter as Oliver led him to the chair beside Megan.“For me?” He asked before the realization dawned on him that he hadn’t introduced both of them to each other. “Megan, this is my brother, Lucian. Lucian, Megan.” He introduced them, they shook hands and soon Oliver and Lucian got to talking, completely forgetting about Megan’s presence.“The Philippine mission? We’re going together.” Lucian shared excitedly before he caught a glimpse of Oliver’s raised eyebrow.They had a way of talking to each other if they didn’t want other people to hear. Oliver hadn’t said anything abou
“What?” Lucian asked, not understanding what Oliver was referring to. They’ve both lost track of each other’s lives and he had no idea that Oliver was once married.“I was once married,” Oliver continued, “Sienna Taylor but you know how I always say if I eventually get married I wouldn’t let the woman know my identity until I was sure that I wanted to be with her for life?” He asked and Lucian nodded.“You even said you were going to act poor,” he laughed but stopped when the expression on Oliver’s face was serious.“You went through with it?” He asked and Oliver nodded affirmatively.“I lived as Oliver Hudson for almost three years and well, the first six months were great,” Oliver said.“The rest of the years, I was treated like trash, it was almost like she only got married to me for looks.” Oliver sighed.“Wow,” Lucian sighed, “so you requested a divorce? Where does Megan come in?” He asked.“I helped her become who she was secretly and once the news of us being separated spread l
It was the first time since the first couple of months that Oliver was finally having sex again. He had no idea how to feel about it but he knew he enjoyed it.It wasn’t like the way it used to be with Sienna, everything was different and Megan was vocal as she told him everything that she liked.Oliver took his time to get to know her, to satisfy her and for the first time in years he was also sexually satisfied. They finished having sex and laid in bed whole Megan slept off in his arms. Thoughts ran through Oliver’s mind and he couldn’t help but think about how much he wanted to get invested again.He made up his mind that as soon as he gets back from the Philippines, he was going to talk to Megan about making things real and this time, they’re both going to see her family too.Smiling, he relaxed and closed his eyes and soon, he drifted into the comfortable arms of sleep. The sound of the bedside alarm jolted him awake and he hurriedly turned it off.“Oh, thank goodness.” He sighe
Oliver didn’t know whether to turn towards her or to just answer without looking at her. It was almost as though he’s a shy little boy.He has never been shy in front of a lady before, why is he shy now?Before he could think of what to do, he heard her getting out of bed and before he could speak she was already hugging him from behind.He smiled but hid it so she wouldn’t see, he liked how things just changed overnight between them and now he only wants things to go on like this between them.“It’s really sad that I can’t come with you,” Megan started as she rested her head on his back and ran her fingers through his chest.“Since you both will be having fun I was hoping it was going to somehow happen with me being among you too.” She finished.Oliver felt bad for lying to her but for the sake of her own safety he couldn’t tell her why he was going to the Philippines so for the first time, he turned to face her.Her cheeks were really red, they were flushed from all the fun that the
Megan sighed as she sat all alone in the big house, she knew that she was bound to get bored and also because she was on a week leave from the hospital, which means nothing to do until the next week.She’d made up her mind to go and see her best friend and tell her about everything that happened between her and Oliver but before then she has to call her brother.The sound of her phone ringing jolted her out of her thoughts and a small smile formed on her lip when she saw that Ezra was the one calling.She was just about to call him.Megan had been ignoring his and her mother’s call for days and now Ezra really hoped that she was going to answer. Things haven't been going well between him and Clara so he thought he was going to mention that to her too.“Has she picked up?” His mother asked and he shook his head lightly. He's been waiting for a call back from her but it never came and now, as usual, she’s ignoring his calls.“Hello.” Megan’s voice came from over the phone and he let out
Keith roamed around his room, he had asked Sienna to come see him but she completely ignored him. It was like she was starting to find out what he planned to do with her.Sitting on the edge of the bed, he stared at the ceiling hopelessly before finally putting on a hoodie and deciding that he wanted to see what Oliver and Megan were up to.He saw Megan leave the house alone which is unusual because despite waiting around for hours Oliver never came out of the house.Recalling the route she took with her convoys, he went after her and an evil smirk started playing out on his face.He needed some time to find out her movement, to know the places she visits without Oliver because that’s the only way he could make his move.The sound of cars revving jolted him out of his thoughts and he hid himself behind one of the fences around.Picking out his phone, he smiled again before dialing Megan’s number.____________They got out of the aircraft and true to what the grandmaster had said, they
ONE WEEK LATER.“What should I do?” Megan asked Arianna as she paced around Arianna’s room. It's been a week and she still hasn’t heard anything from Oliver and like that wasn’t enough, Keith is back and he’s threatening her too.She was stressed with no idea what to do, she’d explained everything to Arianna who advised her to tell Oliver about Keith as soon as he was back but how was she going to do that?How was she going to talk to a man that she hasn’t heard from since he left for the Philippines?“Let’s just calm down,” Arianna finally said after a while of silence, she knew that there was nothing she could say that could get Megan to calm down.But her best friend was so stressed already and she had to do something. She tried talking to her grandpa who only told her that he couldn’t tell her anything.“He hasn’t reported back either, I haven’t heard from him.” Lord Tate told his granddaughter as discreetly as he could because he couldn’t risk telling her about what Oliver really
Oliver had been stuck at the hospital for a week now with Lucian constantly looking after him. His fear was evident but he managed to keep it at bay.He called the academy to inform them that the mission was a success but Oliver had gone into a coma. He’d thought that it was just bullet wounds but it was more than just that.It wouldn’t be the first time that they would get shot but it was definitely the first time that Oliver would pass out completely from a bullet wound.Lucian tried all he could to revive Oliver but things just seemed too far fetched for him. He researched the bullet wound and found out that it was an extremely rare and poisonous bullet.“What’s going to happen to him?” Oliver asked the academy doctor who only sighed after checking on Oliver.He walked out of the wardroom and asked Lucian to follow him. He had noticed something unusual about Oliver and wanted to talk to him about it.“Is he going to be fine or things are just going to get worse from here?” He asked
