Chapter One hundred and Twenty
MAR'S POV
I did not want to go anywhere, I had Mera handling affairs at the office and I trusted her with it. She called me when necessary and I answered. Arya had recovered fully but I did not want to leave her by herself. All we had done these past few days was share kisses, make love and eat and we had barely left the room except at night and when we needed dinner and the housekeeper was not around to do it.
We came down to the living room and she opted to prepare lunch.
"I want to make us lunch," she said
"Are you sure you want to go through that stress?" I asked her "I could order something for us you know" I added but she insisted
"I am fine and making lunch for us is not going to be stressful," she said as she walked to the kitchen.
"Do you need any help?"
"No I don't" she responded
I sat on the couch and watched sports. After an hour, lunch was ready and she called me over to the dining table. We had our lunch together and finished up then I helped her to do the dishes and we went back to the couch to watch the television together.
Arya was not a football fan so we watched a soap opera instead. While watching the soap opera, I heard voices and weird sounds from outside.
"Hold on, while I go check out what is happening outside," I said to her and went outside. I looked around, but there was no one in sight and so I went back into the house and joined Arya again.
"What was that?" she asked
"No one"
"I'm thirsty, I will go and get water. Do you want to?"
"No, I'm good" and she left
I was shocked to see Logan behind Arya pointing a gun at her head and moving into the living room with her. I tried to rush over to where I hid my gun.
"If you move an inch, I will kill her and kill you" he saf
"Let her go. She has nothing to do with this" I pleaded
"She has everything to do with this," he said "You killed all my men and you were so dumb not to kill me" he added
"I had absolutely nothing to do with the attack," I said
"Then who did?" he shouted. Then I noticed another man walk into the living room, he had a dagger in his hands. It was specially used for hunting sirens. The man had a mark on his face.
"Welcome boss" Logan greeted
"Boss?" I said I felt Logan had been in charge all along. And the other man laughed out loud. I was concerned more about Arya. Logan was right I should have finished him off when I had the chance to. The man pulled his mask off and I was seriously weak and speechless with who it was. Mr. Erick Flinn
This had to be a joke.
"What was he doing here?" I wondered
And I remember how he kept asking me about Arya. He was a hunter as well
"You seem shocked" but I did not answer that. Logan pulled Arya to the corner of the sitting room and tied her up.
"What did you feel like taking credit for saving my company," Mr. Flinn said as he walked closer to me and began walking in circles. Mr. Flinn was the last person on my mind to be involved with all of this.
"I know you are curious to know why and how I began the headquarters," he said and I really wanted to know because it still felt like a joke to me.
Caspian would not have kept this from me if he had the slightest idea. Mr. Flinn went over to the couch close to me and sat down and dropped the dagger on the table.
"I fell in love with a woman only to find out later that she was from the water. A fucking Siren." Mr. Flinn said
"And why did you have to disguise yourself?" I asked
"Because you were proving too difficult. You had this siren and you refused to do the necessary. And still prevented us to reach her"
I turned to look at Arya and she was just on the ground bound by a rope and Logan was right beside her.
"Let her go please" I pleaded
"That's impossible. You have prevented me from getting to her and so I will take you out so I can have her all to myself."
I was no longer paying attention to him anymore, my mind was on the dagger on the table. I wanted to reach out and take it.
Before I could get to the dagger, Mr. Flinn did. Arya had already snatched the gun from Logan and was pointing the gun at him.
Mr. Flinn pulled me up immediately and held the dagger to my neck.
"Do not move else I'll shoot" Arya said as she looked over at me.
Logan tried to move closer to her but she warned him again.
"She won't shoot. If she does I'll kill him" Mr. Flinn said and I noticed the fear in her eyes. She was going to give up.
"Lower the gun now" Mr. Flinn ordered her.
She was beginning to go down. I didn't want that to happen and so I hit Mr. Flinn off me with my elbow and then Logan was trying to get to Arya but I got to her in quick strides but the gun fell off her hand.
Then I jumped on it so did Logan and then in the course of struggling for that gun, it fired.
And everywhere was silent. Then I turned to see Mr. Flinn bleeding from his mouth and dropping to the ground. And then his dagger fell.
Arya who was close to him rushed over and picked it up. While I and Logan continued struggling for the gun. Arya stabbed him right by the neck.
