"I...I..uh..am straight " came out my stutter. Gee Es can you be more embarrassing,I scolded mentally.


"Oh yeah,then why does your heart beat so fast around me" Athena whispered in my ear sending shivers straight to my core.

I kept biting my lower lip, holding my breath,wishing the ground could open up and swallow me whole.

"This is going to be fun" I heard Athena mutter under her breath as she walked away from me.

Reaching Out To You

"Dad don't let your men open fire until I have Roselia with me"I said into the phone. 


We flew to Pagean very early in the morning and it's almost mid-day now. 


We're already near the warehouse Alyssa kept her. I just hope we won't engage in firing,I don't want anyone to end up hurt especially my little girl and Esty. 


"Chris just park a few feet from the place and keep Esty safe no matter what don't let her out of this van" 


"I won't just let you go in there on your own Athy"Esty glared at me. 


"It's not up for discussion Esty you're staying here,I can't be worrying about your safety while getting Rose"I said firmly leaving no room for argument. 


I could tell she wanted to fight about it but there's no way in Hades I'm letting a single hair from her harmed. 


Just coming here with me took a lot of explaining and assurance from her moms. 


Good thing her sister was of much help calming them down.
