WAR GOD Chapter 87
Chapter 87Eve hummed lowly as she steamed her dress, she had managed to get the girls' attention with the little bait she dangled before them, and they had all agreed to hang out today.Carmen had even postponed her precious shoot for some other day just to be there.She felt a little bad about this deceit, but she also knew she had to do it, there was no escaping it for sure.Working the steamer down the length of the dress, she admired the soft material of it with delicate fingers.Having decided against using the fake silicone bump, she had reasoned it would be better for her to show up like that, and tell them she was just three months gone.Technically is too early for a hump to be visible yet, takes off to Bali or the Maldives and hides away until she sorted her business and debts.They would fall for it, she was very sure of that, all she had to do was put up a very fake smile and maybe a few drops of tears when necessary.Eve glanced at the antique clock on the wall, she had

Ivan had settled with the idea of telling Vera about his true identity, he was also grateful that he had spoken to Hermes about the issue.Avoiding Artemis was not as easy as he had anticipated,she had sat right beside him at the press meeting two hours ago.And he was confident to admit that that was the most nerve wracking,gut-wrenching one hour of his life.She kept nudging his feet, and gliding her toes in the length of his calf, scratching his thighs we her velvet red stiletto shaped nails.And when he had shifted away from her, she had drawn her chair right back, very close to him.He had kept his cool, knowing her act was just for a while,he would clear the air with Vera, and she will have absolutely nothing to blackmail him for.Ivan glanced at the time, it was well past noon and Hermes was still not back.They had concluded to tell Vera in a beautiful way, so he had planned and little dinner evening at his place.Hermes was out to get the decorations and every necessity while

Sara had freshened up immediately, ready to leave for the pharmacy with Anna Anna had been looking at her a little too long since she made that statement about not wanting to be a mother.As much as she wanted to tell her the truth, she was scared as to what Anna would think of her.The pharmacy was in a supermarket not too far from the house, so Anna had suggested they walk, it was a chance for her to get to see the city a little, she had said.So Sara had agreed immediately to it, she needed to clear her head after all, and now she had an opportunity she was not going to throw it away.They walked hand in hand on the curb, Sara asked questions and Anna answered diligently.“Sara?” Anna called in a concerned tone.“Hmm” she hummed back.“When you said something about not wanting to be a mother, were you serious?” Anna asked.Sara did not answer right away, she contemplated telling Anna the truth. And decided to just trust her anyway.“Yes, I was,” she said simply.She waited for the

Ivan had just settled into his office for the second time in one day, he had waited patiently in the bathroom until Artemis had walked out.He went back to work banishing thoughts of her and her threats, he was going to resolve that each sooner.Speaking of which, he remembered Hermes still was not back, or maybe he was but had not sent word yet.He reached for his phone on the desk, deciding to call him and see what the delay was about.Just as he pressed the dial icon, his office door swung open in speed and Hermes sauntered in.He looked as if he had been chased by a bull, his hair was disheveled like he had run all the way here, and there were little patches of sweat on his shirt.“Did you get in a fight?” Ivan asked instinctively.Hermes was a short-tempered and agile man, who would go into a fistfight at the slightest provocation if he had to.He stood in front of the desk and gasped breathlessly, he sucked in air trying to relax.“Hermes?” Ivan called impatiently.“I found Sara

Chapter 91“So what was so important that you wanted all of us here,” Carmen asked.“Uhm, girls” Eve started. “I'm pregnant.” She whispered, keeping her gaze on the table to avoid theirs.“OMG Evelyn, what did you do?!” Carmen shrieked.“Awwwnnn, I'm going to be a godmother soon.” Olive purred.They both said it simultaneously, and Eve looked between the two girls.“You are going to look fat as hell in like four months,” Kira said, sizing her from head to toe.“Really?” Olive asked, looking at her with a stern face.“Are you keeping it?” Carmen asked, she looked seriously scared.“Uhm, yes?” Eve said, " It's already a little past three months.” She said. “ We are going to have to start shopping and picking baby names,” Olive said excitedly.“Yeah, chill madam,” Kira said, obviously not impressed by her over-excitement.“Who knocked you up?” Kira asked.“Yeah, that is right. Does he know what he has done?” Carmen chipped in.“I cannot say, I don't want to at least, and no, he does not
WAR GOD Chapter 92
Chapter 92Vera drove on silently, the traffic was not as terrible as she had expected, which she was glad about. It meant she would get home faster.She noticed the red Audi that had tailed her since she left her mother's.She had not thought anything of it at first, but it was slowly becoming suspicious, the car had been one car behind her for the whole ride since her mother's.Not wanting to raise a fake alarm by calling anyone, she decided to be certain he was taking a wrong turn, just to make sure.Her heart was beating fast in her chest just by the thought of the possibility of it, questions coursed through her mind.There was no logical reason she could think of that someone would want to be after her.The only competition she had had for a long time now was the Anderson and presently that Steve Anderson was dead there had not been much threat it drama.So whoever it was must be after her first for an entire other reason, that is if they were even after her, it could just be he

Chapter 93“Do you know who that was?” Sara asked as they walked out of the mall.“ No idea” Anna answered, glancing behind her to make sure he was not following them.“He sounded like he knows me, Anna” Sara said, turning to look at her“Sara, don’t even think of us because I won’t let you,” Anna said.“Maybe I should just hear him out, and see what he has to say,” Sara said pausing.“No Sara, that is not a good idea, and you might now understand but you will thank me later.”Sara sighed as they walked away.The walk back home was a silent one, each of them was a lot in their world of thoughts and just trotted home.“Okay,” Anna started, “I’ll get some water, so you can take this at once,” she said, walking to the kitchen “Okay,” Sara said, sitting on the couch and waiting for her.She blinked twice and realized her sight had gotten better in the last few minutes, she could see a little clearer and colors looked more prominent.“Here you go,” Anna said, handing her the pill and some
WAR GOD Chapter 94
Chapter 94Hermes sat at his desk fuming, he half hated Ivan for what he did but hated Artemis even more for causing this in the first place.A part of him felt like she was also doing all this to spite him after he had told her about his feelings.It hurt him even more that he still loved her, even after all he just heard from Ivan, after all she had done, he still wanted her.To say he was just hurt was an understatement, he had left Ivan's office wounded in the deepest part of his heart.He had promised himself to leave her alone, to do his thing and forget about everything he felt for her, but hearing everything with Ivan had made every feeling resurface.She had not even considered him, she did not even want to give him a chance, she just made her choice and that choice was not him.Hating Ivan was not necessary, but he could not help himself, Ivan was perfect, any woman would want him, and he could have any one of them.But his Artemis had chosen him, it would have made sense if
