Chapter 3: Hint of True Colors

last update Last Updated: 2022-09-27 20:53:54

Katerina was nervous upon seeing the new arrivals. She had seen them once on the island when she was still new to the area. Her neighbors warned her not to go out when this group would be there because of the trouble these men were making and she might become their target. 

They often come to take half of the fisherman's catch. Even if she didn't agree with what they were doing, she didn't have the strength to reprimand the men. They are known for being fiery and feared even in the neighboring islands.

"It looks like you have a lot of fish caught today, Ben," said the leader. As far as she remembers the man's name was Edgar.

"Ah—y—yeah, it's just a bit of luck, boss," replied the old man whose fear was obvious in his voice and face. 

Edgar grinned evilly before speaking again. "Well, if that's the case every day, I'll take everything you've got here today."

"Uhm…I g—guess that's too much boss," Ben complained weakly.

Anger suddenly flashed in Edgar's eyes and grabbed the old man's collar. The women screamed out of fear. They don't just have knives but they also have guns. 

"When I say I'll take it, I'll take it! Do you understand!" Edgar seethed as he almost lifted the old man's body. "When did you learn to say no?!" 

Ben had tears in his eyes as he nodded. "I'm sorry, boss. J—just take everything, please don't hurt us."

Edgar carelessly let him go and ordered his companions to take the buckets of fishes and put them on the boat. Tasya and Rico immediately attended to Ben who was lying on the sand. Katerina looked at Achilles and saw him clenching his fist. When she looked up, the veins on his neck almost popped out as his jaws tightened. She was afraid of what might happen so without hesitation she grabbed the man's hands to calm him down.

She can't let him risk his life for the worse. Achilles was alone, the men were armed and there were actually five of them. She was sure he wouldn't be able to handle it if he ever got into a fight. They thought the pirates would continue to the shore but suddenly they stopped and turned to them. After a while Edgar grinned devilishly once again before walking back. 

"There is something more interesting here than fish," he said with a smile and walked towards her direction. He looked at her from head to toe. "You're still fresh, hot and sexy. You'll come with me today. If I like your performance, I will make you my wife," he added.

Lust was visible in the man's. She tightened her grip on Achilles' hand because of the sudden surge of fear in her chest. With just one look in the eye she knew this man won't do good to her. Edgar was about to grab her by the arm when Achilles suddenly pulled her aside. Edgar fumes in anger and competes stare with Achilles.

"Hey young man! Don't interfere here and better hide under your mother's skirt!"

Edgar yelled and was about to touch her again but before he even reached the tip of her finger, the pirate fell prostrate into the sand. She saw the latter's nose bleeding. Achilles' eyes were burning with anger and foresaw a danger that could kill the man in front of him which gave her goosebumps. This was the first time she had seen him so furious. Because of so much fear and concern Katerina hugged Achilles.

"Achilles, calm down. You won't be able to handle them," she cried and tightened her hug.

He looked at her coldly and slowly removed her arms that were wrapped around him. "Move Katerina," he said in a firm voice and walked towards the man who was still lying in the sand.

Before Edgar could stand up, Achilles grabbed the hem of his clothes around his neck and hit him with another blow. Edgar's mouth bled. In her guess it must have been a broken tooth. The man spat and wiped the blood from the shot on his lip.

"Motherfucking shit! You're really challenging me huh!" Edgar growled.

"Come here boys and let us teach this young man a lesson so he will know his place nextime!" Edgar called his colleagues and grinned arrogantly.

Edgar also has a physique that looks like a gym type of guy but Achilles is more built and has a height advantage. But even though Achilles has the advantage, she is still nervous now that Achilles is surrounded by enemies.

Her tears started to fall so Mira hugged her tightly. A man threw a punch but Achilles immediately dodged it and hit him in the stomach, the young man was not even satisfied with the blow that he kneed the man's chin. Achilles immediately spun around and his strong kick flew into the chest of the second man. The man fell back and coughed up blood.

Katerina's eyes widened and even her neighbors who's  watching the match. Every attack of Achilles was so strong that it was as if he was very used to fighting. The third man was about to shoot him, but before he could touch the trigger, Achilles kicked him in the hand, causing his gun to fall on the ground.

The fourth man took out a hunting knife and tried to stab Achilles. Due to the young man's avoidance, he did not notice the blow coming from the second man he had beaten earlier. Achilles' eyes flared up with anger when he realized that the edge of his lip got a cut.

The battle between the five men and Achilles continued. The cries of the people present were replaced by shouts and joy. It's like they're watching a boxing match and punches in the air every time Achilles hits the opponents. Katerina noticed that a particular man got up and planned to stab Achilles again so she didn't think twice to pick up a piece of wood and hit the man on the back of the head. He fell to its knees and completely fell to the ground.

The surroundings became quiet, the shouting of the people disappeared. Achilles quickly approached her, took the wood she was holding and threw it away. Katerina was stunned for a moment, violence was never her thing. She grew up in a prominent and influential family where their good image is important. She was never involved in any trouble from when she was little until she grew up.

"Katerina, look at me," Achilles urged her and raised her face.

She looked at the man. His electric blue eyes showed concern.

"It's okay, hmm." he then caressed her face.

They heard Edgar's mocking laugh. When they looked back he was now holding a gun  pointing at her. Achilles immediately blocked his body to protect her from harm. Katerina grabbed the hem of Achilles' clothes because of fear, but despite that, there was joy in her heart because she realized that Achilles is willing to sacrifice his life for her.

"Do you really think you can handle us kiddo?!" he said while laughing. "You still have sacks of rice to eat young man!" Edgar added and raised his gun.

When he was about to pull the trigger, he did not succeed because their neighbors suddenly created chaos jumping into his direction . Edgar dropped the gun, Achilles quickly picked it up and removed the bullet. The women also joined in and threw sand at the five men causing them to be unable to see properly. 

The whole breakfast was a disaster. Their leftover rice and dishes were scattered. Even their table was also destroyed. She turned to the pirates and saw that they were wounded and now unconscious…

    Holding hands, they walked out of the beach house while the chopper was waiting to take them to the airport. Damon was silent the whole ride that made her curious but to give him privacy, she didn't bother to ask. She just entertained herself by watching the scenery outside. After they arrived at the airport, Damon was still in the same mood. Women can't help but look in their direction, especially to her husband as they walk in. Fortunately, Damon held her hand and didn't let her go until they had gotten inside the plane. After almost seventeen hours being above the sky, the plane landed. Damon assisted her until they got out of the airport. A man in a suit gave Damon a key and led them to his own car."Are we going straight to your office, Damon?" Katerina asked as she entered the car. "No, agapi mou. We have to go somewhere else," He replied then started the car engine.Katerina frowned upon realizing that Damon's car was taking an unfamiliar route but she chose not to a

    Katerina smiled as she prepared the table for their dinner. It's been days since both of them are on the island spending their not so late honeymoon. After she finished what she was doing, she noticed that Damon was not in the living room. She also tried to find her husband inside their room but he was not there either so she decided to look for him outside. There was no one on the beach when she got out. She went around the back of the beach house and was surprised to notice that there was a small lighthouse in that area. Looking up, she saw Damon upstairs who seemed to be talking to someone on the cellphone. "There you are," she whispered with a smile on her lips and ran upstairs. She reached the top just as Damon turned around and was surprised to see her. "Hey, I've been looking for you," Katerina stated and hugged Damon "...dinner is ready." "I'm sorry, someone just called me," he shared then kissed her on the top of her forehead. "Who was it? Business matters?" "Nope,

She wasn't sure if he was pissed off already because of her sulking with nonsense matters, but she can't help it and she can't control her feelings now.Katerina sighed while stirring her milk. Should she say sorry to him for ignoring his presence? They had just made up yesterday and now here she is with her attitude. She was about to turn around when she felt a strong set of arms wrap around her waist."Are you still mad?" Damon softly asked, planting small kisses on her bare shoulder.Katerina leaned against Damon's chest while feeling his warmth. "I'm not mad, I'm just…I'm just insecure.""What makes you say that?""You have experience already and you've been with a lot of women. I'm just afraid that they are a lot better than me in bed," she confessed with embarrassme
