Chapter twenty three

Early the next morning, Thomas, myself, Steven, Joseph and some of our bodyguards went to a deserted area. Thomas acted his role and I hid behind a building so that it gives the idea that someone saw it and hid to take the video to save dear life, but in the end what Thomas didn't expect or thought was part of the plan was when he was hit with a gun on the back of his head and lost conscious.

I ended the recording and now it's fun time. We changed Thomas location to the underground basement in Kendall's house. It was a place no one would suspect, and we changed cars in the way and followed through the jungle to avoid getting noticed by cameras. 2 hrs later Thomas regained his conscious and found himself tied to a chair and bounded hands and legs.

" What is this dear, why am I tied this is not a part of the plan?" He said confused.

I couldn't hold the laugh that escaped my mouth, " chill Thomy baby, chillax, I am going to give you the surprise of your life, I promise you would love it".

" What fucking surprise do you mean, just untie me you bitch before I get angry. I had been coaxing you and fulfilling your every demand to get you in my bed but you were playing hard to get. I agreed to do all that drama regarding kaida and Helen because Its in my best interest, and I even presented you with fake transfer documents to earn your trust. I thought once I get what I want and get bored of you, I would kill you without any stress and find the confidant you gave my statement and kill them as well, but now you are playing me, this is not done, untie me" Thomas shouted.

" Thomas, I know you better than you know yourself, I knew the papers were fake, but I got the real ones, I took your signatures the other day you came to my room at night and confessed your crimes, remember I made you sign something and told you it's part of the prove I needed, it's actually shares transfer documents. And I knew you planned to get rid of me, but am one step ahead of you, oh as for the surprise, I want you to see someone, it's someone when you see, you would lose your mind" I said with a grin.

I first took off my blond wig and threw it at him and let my dark brown hair free. I then started pealing off my skin mask and I loved the shock in Thomas eyes at the sight of peeled skin, in no time at all my real face was bare in front of him and his jaw dropped before he started screaming hysterically.

" Someone help, help me, it's a ghost, someone please help me, help" Thomas cried and I must say his screams gave me the utmost joy.

" Shhhh, Thomas don't shout, you would lose your voice and I can lose my hearing if you keep screaming like that, aren't you happy to see your best friend alive and well, huh" I said with a mocking tone.

" No, no,no, you can't be Aria, you are just scarring me, Aria is dead, I myself had seen her dead body, kaida and I compelled her to commit suicide, how can you be Aria, no this is a lie, am hallucinating, it's all a lie" Thomas shouted in disbelival.

" Yes Thomas, you did indeed saw my dead body, and you did indeed compell me to commit suicide. You killed the other Aria Thayer, this is Aria who seeks for revenge, this is Aria who wants to destroy all those who destroyed her, yes I was dead but, I RISE FROM MY ASH" I said with authority, anger, satisfaction and revenge filled tone. " Now be ready to pay for and atone for all your sins, it's payback time".

"Aria I beg you please don't, please. I agree I wronged you, but you have a big heart, you can find it in your heart to forgive me, and you also loved me alot right, we are even engaged and about to get married, let's get married now ok, I promise to be faithful to you and change my ways, please just spare me" Thomas begged.

I chuckled, what a character Thomas is, from acting all bossy, to shouting for help, to denial and now to seeking for forgiveness, what a shrew. I walked towards him in small and intimidating strides, he gulped hard not knowing what my action would be, but the moment I stood in-front of his disgusting face the first thing I did was throw him a jaw breaking punch, he screamed in pain and two bloodied teeth's fell off his mouth.

I kept hitting him to release my anger, I hit him so much till Steven held me tightly stopping me, I wish I could have killed him. When I was sane, I realized what I did, from my excessive and vigorous punchs, Thomas nose was broken, he lost all his front teeth, and his eyes were black and blue.

I did feel relive after beating the hell out of him, but I just can't kill him like that, I need to make him suffer everyday of his life, now my revenge towards him isn't only personal, I want to take revenge for all the innocent girls he had hurt and the one he killed, he is worse than a dog, atleast a dog is a loyal animal.

" Steven let go of me please, am not gonna hit him again I just wanna make sure he is still alive" I said wrangling from Stevens hold, I could easily do it, but I don't wanna hurt him in the process.

" Fine, but you need to keep your head underwater okay, if you do anything crazy I might have to take you out of here" he warned.

" Don't worry it won't happen" I assured him, I picked up a glass of water and splashed it on Thomas face but this idiot didn't move a muscle, I gave him a tight slap and it worked better than the water because he coughed out a mouth full of water.
