Chapter Thirteen
The next morning I came down for breakfast, wearing dark ripped jeans, a bike jacket, and black boots, with my pale black bag on my shoulder.
When I entered the dining room, Atlas looked at me, smiled, and said, “So this is your kind of style?”
“Yes,” I said as I took a seat at the table.
Then I stared at the smile on his face and asked, “What? You hate it?”
I don't even know why I asked such a question, and why I cared to know what he thinks.
“No, I like it. Your style is as unique as you.” Atlas said, taking a sip of his drink.
Even though I tried so hard not to, I ended up smiling because of his response.
After we got done with breakfast, Atlas and I headed outside, and at that moment, my gaze rested on the mole among Atlas’ bodyguards.
I turned to Atlas and asked, “Can we not take the escort's cars today?”
"Aria, I'm not sure that that's a good idea?” Atlas said with a look of hesitation on his face.

After Atlas and I got done eating, we left the cafe and got back into the Jeep. Then I turned to him and asked, “Where to next?” “Home. It's already four-fifteen o'clock “ Atlas said. Time was running out on me, and right now, I had only an hour and some minutes left. So wasting no time, I stepped on the accelerator and drove off. When we arrived at the mansion, Atlas unbuckled his seat belt and was about to get down from the car when I got a call. It was a spam call, but it came at the perfect time, and without any hesitation, I answered and said, “Hello, Susan.” For a second, I eyed Atlas before saying, “Calm down. What do you mean by, ‘Rob broke up with you!” The person on the other end of the line said, “What are you talking about?” But those words didn't make me break character. Instead, I got pretty emotional, forced myself to share a tear, and said, “I'm on my way, Sus! Don't try to do anything stupid!”

The warehouse was quiet, and I swallowed hard as I stared at Lex's body on the floor.It was clear that there was no backing out of this mission anymore, and I had to finish the rest of the names on the list.Suddenly, my ringtone broke the silence, and I gazed away from Lex, took my phone out of my pocket, and stared at the screen.Immediately, my heart skipped a beat, and I felt a tightness in my throat as I stared at Atlas' name blinking on my phone screen.Then I cleared my throat and answered the call, striving not to stare at Lex as I said, "What's up?""I'm just checking to see how things are going with you and your friend." Altas' voice echoed into my ear, and a sense of guilt caused me to pause.It sucks to have such a feeling, and I felt like I was getting soft which was something I couldn't afford to be since the mission just started to become serious."Aria," Atlas' voice flowed into my ear like a gentle whisper."U

Atlas POVAs the second skipped by while I waited for Aria to meet me in the living room, I tried to get my heart to stop beating so wildly.But it refused to do so, especially since the only image on replay in my head was that of Aria's shy face.It's like every moment I spent with her, she does something that draws me towards her even more.Finally, after waiting for a couple of minutes, my attention got drawn to the living room doorway because of the sound of footsteps, and it took only a few seconds for Aria to walk into the room.Although she didn't wear anything fancy, I couldn't stop myself from giving her a half-smile because just the sight of her made me feel a sense of excitement. It's weird, and I know that, but I couldn't help it."Should we leave?" Aria asked, and her words snapped me out of my feelings."Sure!" I said, sounding more enthusiastic than I intend to.Feeling a bit embarrassed, I kept silent and

For a moment, Aria said no words to me. Then she suddenly smiled, and when I thought we were finally going to have a conversation, the waiter walked up to the table, and I realized that she was smiling at him."Here's your cheeseburger," He said, setting a plate and glass in front of her. "And your coke."Feeling dumbfounded by the smile on Aria's face, I watched as she told the waiter, 'Thank you," acting like everything was okay.After the waiter had placed my order on the table, he left, and I took my seat before saying, "Can we talk now?""About what?" Aria said, picking up her burger.Not wanting her to talk with her mouth full, I watched in silence as she ate her food.Once she got done, I gently hit the tip of my finger against the table, striving to calm myself down, and said, "About the three men that you were talking with a few minutes ago.""Oh, those guys!" Aria said, reaching for her glass of coke."Yes, those guys

I asked as I took a seat beside her."No. It just didn't feel right eating without you." Aria mumbled, picking up her fork."Oh, sorry that I came down late.""It's okay. You are here now."A few minutes after we started eating, Aria's phone rang, and as I watched her gaze at its screen, she looked disturbed for a second, and then she hastily ended the call.Although I was concerned about the look in her eyes when she got the call, and I wanted to ask her what was going on, I kept my questions to myself and continued eating.

********Lilith POV*******For a couple of minutes now the living room had been silent since Atlas defiled Kerri, and I didn't believe he had it in him to lose it in such a manner.It felt weird knowing that I was the reason that they were having such a conversation since I killed Lex, making his position vacant.But the fact that Kerri and the others wanted to replace him so quickly meant that they were afraid that if Atlas got to investigate Lex's works, he would find out about the embezzlement of the company's money.This leads me to my second assumption that made my heart sink because I knew that since Atlas refused their request, their next steps would be to get rid of him before he can get the chance to review Lex's works at the company.And that leads me to my last assumption which is that they might make their move between now, towards Lex's funeral.It sucks to know that I would h

Knowing I couldn't ignore Mitch too long or he would become an obstacle to my mission, I took a moment to compose myself and then answered the call."Lilith, I'm not excited about you disregarding my calls." Mitch's robust voice echoed into my ear, and I felt my heart sink."I need you to stop calling me," I said, striving to keep my voice stable."But I don't want to.""I really don't give a damn about what you want, Mitch! Just stop with the calls!"The line grew quiet for a few seconds. Then Mitch's voice flowed into my ear, sounding mad, "Is it because of your new toy! What's his name? Ah, Atlas, it is, right?""Keep his name out of this because you know very well why I need you to stay the hell away from me!" I lashed out."I want you back, Lilith.""I'm not your little treasure, Mitch!""We both know that's a lie. I made you, and you are mine."Clutching my fist tight, I could feel my heart violently p
The CEO Fierce Bodyguard Chapter Twenty One
The entire morning I didn't speak to Atlas. But I guessed he wasn't affected by my silence because it was now five o'clock, and he had not uttered a word to me either. As my hand stroked against the couch, I kept my eyes fixed on him as I wondered what was going on in his head. Also, Linda had not called me yet, and I felt worried, not because I didn't trust Phoebe to find out the information I needed. If I was to trust anyone to go on a life-threatening mission with me, I would pick Phoebe within a heartbeat. That's how good she is at her job. However, I was worried about what I was going to do with the information she will give me, and how I was going to go about it. After I and Atlas had sat in awkward silence for a few more minutes, my phone rang, and he finally lifted his head and met my eyes. The look he had in his eyes was indescribable, and it caused my heart to stop for a moment before beating normally. Finally g
