Owned By a Greek god

**** JASON P. O. V ****

When we arrived at mother’s house, we got out of the car and went inside. In a fit of rage, I slammed the door, and Ryan and I hurriedly made our way inside.

When I arrived, I found that the gate had been opened. Immediately after opening it, I dashed into the living room. And there was mother, and the most vexing aspect of the situation was the fact that her head was nowhere to be found.

When I looked at the soldiers standing in the distance, I questioned, “Where is her head?”

He said, “I couldn’t find it when he woke up,” and Ryan knelt down in front of the body. “I couldn’t find it.”

He repeated it with a harsh tone, “So they wanted revenge, they thought of getting to us using our mother, and then they killed her, and not only that, they beheaded her, and not only that, but they took her head. The person must be in a lot of suffering.”

I muttered this while clenching my jaw and thinking to myself, “Well, I pity him in advance because once I get to him, his death will be worse than this.”

Ryan asked me while gazing directly at me and folding his hand, “And how do you know that he is a man?”

I responded by saying, “Because a lady can’t do this. She won’t have the heart to,” to which he responded with laughter.

He posed the question, “What if she can switch on and off her humanity like we can?”

I responded by saying, “Well, I don’t care. Right now, all I can think about is slitting the throat of the cretin who did this to Mom.”

Melina held my hand while she asked, “Oh my God, where is she?” I stared at her hand as she spoke to me.

I replied in a chilly tone, “They took it.”

She said, “OMG, I am so sorry,” as I shook my head in response.

I repeated this to myself as I was walking outside, “That’s not the problem. What I need to do now is to do far worse to the killer.”

I could hear a woman arguing with the security guards as she pleaded, “Please let me in; I need to talk to Ryan.”

“What do you want?” Ryan questioned glancing at her.

When she said, “I know who killed your mother,” both of our eyes widened in shock.

I became enraged and approached her while asking, “How?”

She said, “I was sent by a particular brother and sister to spy on you. They say you killed their parents.” At that moment, Ryan moved up to her and grabbed her by the neck. “I was sent by a particular brother and sister to spy on you,” she said.

He bellowed, “How could you? So you’re the one who’s behind this?”

She implored, “No, please let me talk,” but all I could do was look at her without showing any mercy.

Agnes said, “Ryan, let her go. We need her alive so that she can lead us to the killer,” and he hesitated before releasing go of her. “We need her alive so that she can take us to the killer,” he said.

When I took over the interrogation, the first thing I said was, “Tell us all you know.”

“Their names are Kyle and Joan Bastod, and they told me that I should pretend to be their neighbor in order to spy on you. They blamed me for the deaths of their parents, and they wanted retribution.”

“I heard about when your mother and you arranged a party, and I notified them. I was on my way to make friends with Ryan when that accident happened.” “I heard about when your mother and you planned a party.”

“I feared he was going to neglect me and let me die because of how badly they talked about you and Ryan, but Ryan surprised me by taking me to the hospital and paying all of my medical fees.”

They were irritated by the news and even told me that I would come to regret my decision. “I couldn’t damage him after what he done, so I told them that I won’t be assisting them anymore.”

She exhaled deeply and added, “I knew I scattered their plan for the celebration, so I guess this was plan B.” She was working very hard to control her breathing.

Melina wanted to know, “And what did they intend to do for the party?”

She stated that her intention was “to kidnap Melina in order to hurt you.”

While I stood there and watched, Ryan bellowed in a furious tone, “And why didn’t you tell me till now?”

She remarked, “Because I wasn’t lucky, and I had no idea they would go this far. My life is also under their threats, so we can fight together to bring them down.”

“I am familiar with the Bastods. They were the ones that intended to kill us when they learned that we no longer had feelings. They attacked first, and because I had to defend myself, I killed them.”

Angrily, I remarked, “They wanted us dead! We didn’t even do anything to them, and I don’t regret slicing their throats.”

Melina stated, “This isn’t helpful, and if we want to arrest the killer, we need to get there in time before they escape or find out that we are coming after them.”

I told Gracie and Agnes to get in the car and that we would handle the situation from here on out.

I heaved a sigh as she continued by saying, “No. You can’t just leave me hanging like that, Jason. I promised to stay with you. I will be alongside you.”

I yelled at her, and she responded by shaking her head and saying, “Don’t you get it? I can’t let you see this side of me anymore. I am a monster.”

“I love you, and no matter what you do or who you kill, nothing would change that,” she said as she walked into the car, and Agnes followed behind her staring at Ryan through tears. “You are not a monster to me,” she continued. “I love you.”

I told the guards, “Give me your knives and weapons,” and they let everything go after that. Ryan did the same thing as I did and chose two knives and a rifle.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

We jumped into the car, and as is our customary practice, Ryan took the wheel.

**** HARRISON P. O. V ****

I positioned myself in front of her door and took several deep breaths. After being away from her for a few weeks, I was completely at a loss for words whenever the opportunity arose to interact with her.

I mustered up the nerve to approach the door, and I rapped on it. I sat tight and didn’t move as I awaited her response. When the door opened, there was a man waiting for me there.

“Hey, hi.” I said furrowed my brows.

After closing the door behind him, he greeted the person and then said, “Who are you, please?”

I introduced myself as Harrison and stated that I had a question for Nina.

He demanded in a furious tone, “So you are the Harrison that jilted her?”

Nina’s voice could be heard coming from inside the house as she asked Dave, “Who is that?” When I opened the door, there was Nina standing there. She was perplexed as she glanced at me.

She questioned him with astonishment, “Harrison?”

“I am sorry for coming here unannounced. I didn’t know you already had a firm,” I said as I turned to go, but to my astonishment, she held me back. “I am sorry for coming here unannounced.”

She responded, “No, don’t go. This is Dave, my cousin,” and I felt so thrilled hearing that he is her cousin after hearing that he is her cousin.

He repeated it in a furious tone, “And you are Harrison who destroyed my sister’s heart,” and she gripped his hand as she did so.

I said to Nina, “I am sorry for leaving her that way. I didn’t know what I was doing, I was blinded. I am sorry,” and she sighed. “I am sorry for leaving her that way.”

She invited him inside, saying, “Come in. Let’s chat better.” as she opened the door wide.

I told her, as she dropped her head, “I am sorry for leaving you by yourself every single day. I am delighted to hear you have a cousin. I felt horrible every single day that I left you all by yourself. I am sorry Nina.”

She gestured to Dave that he should give us a moment.

She asked me whether or not I had spoken to Gracie, and I replied in the negative. “I am not furious, Harrison. I understand, but why are you hear? Did you talk to Gracie? Where is she?”

“She picked Jason over me, and I guess she is pleased with him,” I remarked, and she let out a sigh in response. “She left me at the border,” I said.

She apologized and then asked, “I’m so sorry, but why are you here?”

The expression on her face changed as I told her, “For you, Nina. I have chosen to give us a chance. I couldn’t stop thinking about you and that is why I am here. I love you,” and her eyes became more animated.
