Athena's POV

The next morning, Derek and I went to the swimming pool at the ground area. By the way, we checked here in Manila Ocean Park. It's nearly seven in the morning and there are only few other people  in the pool, less than ten.

I'm wearing a gold two piece bikini with a transparent yellow cover up, which I bought at the store last night. Why gold? Of course it's the lucky color of the year! Hopefully, I'll get lucky and be out of the hell hole I'm at. And I think my luck started for the reason that Tyler didn't call or text me since yesterday. Maybe he realized that his family is better off without me. Ouch! Yeah... I know I'm acting all 'give Tyler to them' but deep inside I want him for myself, I'm just making myself strong and willing it to do the right thing. 😢 And if I'm being honest, I'm missing him and I'm  hoping that he'll come here and get me and make me feel that he loves me too.

"You okay, spaghetti?" Derek asked handing me a cup of coffee.

"Oh, yeah, I'm fine... sorry, I zoned out..." I apologized. He sat on the lounge chair beside me.

"No need to apologize, spaghetti. Just be strong, you're doing the right thing for the kid." He squeezed my right hand. I gave him a tight smile.

"Thank you." I sip on my coffee, put it on the small table between us, lay down then put my sunglasses on, closed my eyes and rest my hands on my stomach with my right leg over the other. Relaxing.

"Beautiful." I heard Derek mutter.

"I know right... This place is wonderful." I agreed without opening my eyes. I heard him chuckle.

"If you say so, spaghetti." I smiled at that.

"What the hell is going on here?!" I hastily opened my eyes and automatically sit upon hearing the raging, loud voice. I put my sunglasses on my head and gasped.

"Tyler?" Oh my gosh, he's here! A part of me was happy because I feel special that he came all the way here and followed me but the righteous one objected his presence.

"You!" He pointed at my back. I glanced back and saw Derek, who's sitting straight on his his chair. Tyler started walking towards us while giving Derek a death stare. Oh my! I stood in front of Derek before Tyler could get any more closer to him.

"Stop!" I hissed at him. I felt Derek moving forward so I reached behind me and held his arms. "Derek please." I whispered. Those few people are bow staring at us. Embarrassing!

"This is the business meeting that your secretary told me?! Is this a business meeting?! Flirting with another man half naked!" He looked me up and down then at Derek, who is wearing a black swimming trunk, only. "You're cheating on me!" He accused. Fuck! It's so embarrassing!

"No! I'm not!" I answered. Then in a quick movement, I was ushered to the side and now they are breaking each other's faces! "Hey! Stop!" But they wouldn't listen. Derek threw a punch on Tyler's face and successfully landed it on his left jaw. Tyler kicked Derek on the stomach and he landed on the floor on his butt.

Oh my gosh! Someone need to stop them!

I glanced around for the guards.

"Help! Stop them! Please!" I yelled to no one, then four of the securities came and separated them.

"I'll fucking  kill you!" Tyler threatened Derek.

"Let's see if you can!" Derek mocked.

"Stop now will you!" They both glared at me. "What?!" I challenged them.

"Let me go!" Tyler demanded the men.

"No." I objected. "Can you please escort him to my room?"

"Yes, ma'am." One of the men holding Tyler answered.

"Thank you." I looked at Derek. "We'll talk later. Please calm down. I'm okay." I assure him. He stopped struggling and they let him go.

"Fine. I'll be just in my room. Just scream, okay?" He advised. I nod.

"Yeah, thank you." I said then went inside the building with Tyler and the men. He stopped struggling so I told them they can leave us alone when we entered the elevator.

"Did you fuck him?!" Tyler asked and grabbed my left arm immediately after closing the room's door. I didn't lock the door, in case. He's very mad right now and I don't want to take the risk. He leaks of liquor.

"Are you drunk?" I asked. I looked at his attire and he's on his working clothes minus the jacket and the tie. And his polo shirt's top two buttons was undone showing some of his hard chest and the sleeves are rolled up to his elbows. I looked at his eyes and they are bloody red.

"Answer me?!" He demanded tightening his grip on my arm.

"No!" I struggled on his hold but he snaked his left hand around my waist and pulled me to him. "Tyler, you're hurting my arm!" I whined and pushed his chest but failed.

"Liar!" He spat at my face. He let go of my arm then intertwined his fingers on my hair and pulled them slightly hard, just like when we're having rough sex. Fu¢k! Get it together, Athena! "I'll fucking kill him for touching you!" He said lowly in a very dangerous voice, and I know he mean it.

"But he didn't!" He leaned in and sucked my neck.

"Mmmm..." Of course, my traitorous body respond! "Tyler, stop it!" I snapped at him, he did. He looked straight into my eyes, our faces so close that his lips are touching mine.

"You're mine, Athena. Mine!" His eyes darkened then he let me go and opened the door. Derek is on the other side!

Blag!

Tyler punched Derek in the face then kicked his stomach fastly which caused Derek to fall on the ground.

"Tyler!" I knelt beside Derek's semi laying form on the floor, put my left arm on his body then slightly leaned in and my right hand in stopping sign to Tyler while I looked up at him.

"You're really protecting him!" His face is scary now.  He's very very angry. "Move, wife." I swallowed.

"Tyler please... we can talk it out.... I'm not cheating on you! Leave Derek out of it!" I begged him, my tears falling.

"Don't Athena. Don't beg to that class-A asshole! He doesn'tdeserve it! He doesn't deserve you!" Derek said while we are standing up.

"And who deserve her?! You?!" Tyler answered pointing at Derek. I stood in front of Derek again to prevent them from getting each other.

"Yes! Because I won't hurt her the way you do!" Derek also pointed Tyler. "I will treat her as my queen and give her everything she wants and do anything to make her happy because I love her!" I moved in order to face Derek. So Tyler is on my back closely that I felt his deep breaths on my ear.

"What?" I asked Derek. He looked into my eyes and said softly.

"Yes Athena... I love you... very much..."
