Allison couldn't explain the relief that washed over her when Davian picked up her call. A few minutes later and she almost couldn't believe that it was all over but what put her in a state of unrest was the fact that He could have actually sent his men after her but He choose not to. "Why?!"
The question taunted her, it made her feel like she had been engaged in a deadly game of chase and that it would be easy to find her if He choose to.
What happened Ally? We were worried sick! That was Esra's voice the minute Davian led her into the house.
You're here?
Ofcourse. I was so relieved when Davian said He got a call from you. I just had to come.
I appreciate it.
You look exhausted.
I'm fine Ess.
Allison...
Yes love?
What really happened to you? Davian asked, worried.
I got kidnapped.
Yes we know that, we even made a report.
It was an enemy of my father's. She said, not wanting to dive any further.
Business adversaries? He asked again.
Yes yes something like that.
You weren't hurt, were you?
No no I wasn't.
Are you sure they were just opposites in business?
Would I lie about something like this Davian?
You're making it sound as if I take you as a liar.
Ofcourse you don't...Allison said with sarcasm in her tone. I just...I just need to rest you two. Esra?
Yes
Thank you. I appreciate the fact that you cared.
Are you seriously doing this right now? If I didn't care for my best friend then what does that make me?
Allison only smiled. I need to sleep. She said, giving Davian a peck before retreating upstairs.~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hades darling....
He smiled in his sleep at that soothing angelic voice, sounding like a thousand endless jingle bells that He could never get enough of. He could feel her snowflake light fingers trailing up and down his forehead.
Yes Venice?
He opened his eyes to see her sitting on the bed beside his head wearing a flowing white dress, complimenting her ethereal appearance.
You're working yourself off too much these days. She said, looking worried.
I'm Fine Darling.
No you're not.
How Can You Tell?
Stop beating yourself off Hades.
Am I?
Yes you are. My death had nothing to do with you and it never will.
But It Does. He said, dejectedly. If Only I Hadn't Gone Ahead With Us.
Oh darling...
If Only I Had Just Let You Go From The Beginning.
And deny yourself of the precious moments we shared.
Hades smiled. That Would Be A Bummer.
I wish I could stop coming.
Why?
My constant presence is not helping you heal and I can't stop coming because you're always thinking about me. You haven't fully let the guilt go.
I Like Seeing You All The Time Venice And Having You By My Side.
But I'm not real Hades, this is a dream.
And I Wish I Didn't Have To Wake Up. How's She? How's Our Daughter?
Venice smiled, blushing. She's with the other little ones.
Other Little Ones?
Things are a little different over here Hades.
Tell Her I Love Her. Even If I'll Never Get To See Her.
I will but if only you'll promise me one thing.
Anything My Love.
Let go Hades, let go of me, of the past.
I Don't Want To.
You have to. It's been a decade. You can't keep sulking in that house, it's time you got up and embraced the world again. Embrace reality and engage in contact with people.
Do I Have To?
If you've ever loved me then you will.
You Know I Love You Venice.
Yes...she smiled...and I love you even more and that's why I want you back with the world again, start anew Hades, find yourself a well deserved life, find love again, maybe even start up a family.
Uh Uh Hold It There Venice.
But I'm being serious. She laughed.
I've Heard Enough. No More Talking Just
Stay A Little While Please. He said, lying his head on her lap.
Ofcourse I'm here. Here until you wake up. She smiled, caressing his hair.THE NEXT MORNING
Good morning Boss.
Yes What Is It?
An invitation for you sir.
