"Bellatrix is dead."The moment Cillian heard those three words, he scoffed loudly, but the sound was void of its usual bitterness."Is this a joke?" He questioned, turning to face Avery with gritted teeth.When the doctor did not respond, he asked again, this time, with a louder voice. "I said, is this a joke?! What type of sick joke are you both playing this time around?"Avery chuckled, but it was clipped and empty. "Does this look like a joke to you, Cillian? Then how about you go closer. Perhaps, when you hold her lifeless body in your arms, you'll be convinced–""Shut your fucking mouth," Cillian snarled, his eyes blazing with rage. "If you both are trying to mess with me, then you've failed. Do you really expect me to believe that she’s dead? Do you really think I'm that stupid?""Perhaps you are. Because for the fact that you can see her lying there..." Her voice cracked a little and she swallowed thickly before continuing. "But you still act like a hot headed bastard, then pe

Cillian was startled by the loud noise outside. Reluctantly, he turned away from Bellatrix's body and stepped out of the morgue.Immediately, his eyes landed on a raging Joe. The moment the elderly man spotted Cillian, he rushed forward and grabbed him by the collar, shaking him furiously."My daughter...where is my daughter!" He cried. "Where's my precious daughter?!""Mr. Lancaster," Kane was the one to step in. He held the elder's hands, attempting to pry them off his boss. "Please calm down.""If you don't take your hands off me this very moment, I'll make you regret ever being born!" Joe seethed, glaring daggers at the assistant who immediately stepped back upon receiving the silent command from Cillian."Father–" He began, but that very second, Joe interrupted him, turning his glare towards him."Don't you dare." He warned. "I don't have a son like you, so don't you dare call me father!"Cillian couldn't bring himself to respond, so silently, he lowered his head.Joe scoffed the

Cillian shot up from his seat the moment he heard Kane's words. His eyes widened a fraction and his hands trembled slightly."What?""Miss Lancaster's body is missing," Kane repeated tentatively. "The morgue reached out a short while ago to inform you of the disappearance because they couldn't reach Miss Lancaster's family. They said..."The rest of Kane's words were blocked out by the rising sound of tinnitus in Cillian's ear. He stared blankly, not paying any attention to a word his assistant was saying.Instead, he focused his mind on a single thought.Bellatrix's body was missing. The only thing he could have of her was...gone."...llian...Cillian. Cillian?!" Rourke's voice snapped him out of his thoughts and by the time Cillian blinked, he was already in front of his office door, hand on the door knob."Where are you going?" His friend looked at him like he had grown two heads, or rather, like he was about to do something he shouldn't.When Cillian didn't respond, but Rourke noti

Two weeks had flown by in agonizing silence. In that period of time, Cillian learnt two things.One; No matter what was thrown at the media, whether true or not, they were ready to eat it up and hover around the source of the news, in this case, unfortunately being he and Regina, as long as they got the scope they wanted.Less than 4 hours after the news of Bellatrix's death hit the internet, several of he and Regina's supposed affair had made headlines. The sudden revelation drowned out the news of Bellatrix's death and soon, he became the hottest celebrity in town.But not for a good reason. A husband's affair being exposed shortly after his wife's death, didn't bring about the type of publicity Cillian had always strived to achieve.With the hit to his public image, came damage to Aetherion's name. Aetherion lost several clients and the stock value plummeted like the rain that continued to fall during that period.The second thing Cillian had come to learn, much to his utter dismay

~Five Years Later~Winter was approaching rather hastily. The cold, despite the sun in the sky, was harsh, finding a way to make people wish they could curl up in the warm comfort of their homes.But despite that, a certain group of people were as alert as ever, holding their cameras and microphones high at the entrance of London's airport.The chatter was loud and the excitement was apparent on the media's faces as they waited for their target to appear, hovering around the welcoming section of the airport like flies.Anyone passing would easily have thought they were waiting to catch a glimpse of a famous celebrity.Well, not too far off."I feel like I've stumbled into a gold mine," One of the reporters whispered, grinning from ear to ear like a child who had just successfully stolen a hundred dollar bill from her mother's purse.The person beside her, although they didn't know each other, was quick to agree with what she had just said. "Indeed, I've been meaning to land an intervi
