Aaron POV
"Aaron"
"Wake up!!"
"Aaron, it’s urgent", I heard soone calling.
I rubbed my eyes and opened my eyes when I found Jas shaking .
"What happened?"
"Why are you in my room?" I asked.
"Dad, called for all of us", he said.
Did I hear it wrong?
Dad is calling ? Really? No it must be his mistake.
"He must be calling for you and others, not . So you should hurry", I said and about to go to sleep but he stopped again.
"No this ti he clearly ntioned you also co with ", he pulled with him downstairs where I can see grandfather is present too out of nowhere. I don’t know why he kept coming here when I said I want revenge from anyone sacrificing my life when I already sacrificed enough.
Still I stayed calm and waited to hear the reason.
"So when all of you co here I would like to announce sothing", he said.
Announcent? What kind of announcent? Is it about being an heir? I don’t know but why am I here when I know Jas will take the place for sure.
I was about to leave the place again when he said, "Aaron will be the new CEO of the company."
Huh!
Did I hear it right?
He took my na or I am just hallucinating?
"Did I hear it right?" I asked.
Everyone looked at , which made feel as if I asked sothing wrong.
"Yeah, it’s you", he said again.
Which made laugh out loud.
Gosh this must be a hell of a joke I ever heard. But laughing like this in front of everyone sure made feel like a joker but nothing else. All the workers must be wondering how this guy who never get on good terms is Mr. King ended up being his heir.
"This is the last thing I ever do this to make up for my sins", he said and left the place while Jas’s hand placed on my shoulder making gasp.
"You are the real", he said.
I really wondered, am I really the real one?

"Aaron"
"Aaron"
"What am I even hearing?"
"You hired people to search for her", Jas asked while entering my cabin out of nowhere.
"Aaron, answer !!!" he shouted.
"Yeah I did", I didn’t show much expression.
"Why?"
"It’s already been more than four years. Do you think she is even alive after a year of missing people declared as dead." he said, making have the feeling of choking him.
"Aaron, co out of your senses and forget her already", he kept on saying.
"No, I will never stop searching for her."
"She has to co back to ."
"She has to be with even if she doesn’t wish to. I will not make the sa mistake of pushing her away from ever. I will never repeat my past mistakes. I will never ever", I said while looking out of the outside world through the glass wall of my cabin.
"Aaron, get your mind straight. It’s obviously your obsession. Just forget about her already. And I believe she is dead!!!" as he said my hand was holding his collar pinning him to the glass.
"What you said? Obsession? Right?"
"You just said obsession? Then what are you doing? Aren’t you just like ? Aren’t you obsessed over Chloe? Aren’t you monopolizing her whenever she talks to ? Aren’t you the one who pulled her to your freaking bedroom when she was done talking to when I once heard that day will be the last one?
What are you then? Aren’t you the sa as ?"
I loosen my grip on the shirt while he looked down.
I never wanted to ntion this but now this has beco a habit when I see Chloe going to his room every night even though everyone knows she is my fiance. I don’t mind as I know about them but I don’t want anyone to lecture over sothing he is doing himself.
"Stop coming to stop my way. I will do everything I can as long as it is in my control. And I agreed to be the heir because this is the way I can find her even if she is hiding in a corner of this world."
I said while I found Chloe standing near the door.
She still has the sa guilt she had years ago.
"Take him away", I said.
Chloe took him out of my room while I again lost in my thoughts.
"Ayla, where the fuck are you?"
"At Least you could have gave the chance to explain myself."
"Why did you leave when I’m really dying without you."
"But I won’t stop. I will make sure to find you anyhow", I said.
***
It’s already been a year since I sent people to search for her but no one found anything. Not even a single person succeeded in finding her.
"Mr. White", I called out Ayla’s father.
"Aaron? What are you doing here?" he asked
"Did she contact ?" I asked.
It’s been years since I keep coming here to ask about her but they always look away but never tell . I’m sure they know sothing but why not tell ? Why? I want to know about it as well.
"Uncle", a little boy ca and held my leg.
"Ah who’s this?", I asked.
Gosh I can’t even best to hold him just how little he is and so light just like a feather.
"He is my son", Jace replied which made wonder if Ayla would be here I’m sure there will be a baby with us as well but now she is not here so as well the thought will always be as a thought.
"You ish handso", he said, touching my face all over.
"Mwaii aunttt is pweetyy too", he said, all looking at with shocked eyes.
"Josh, go inside and play with mom", Jace sent him inside while I was still figuring out the situation.
"You guys know where she is?"
I asked.
No one replied.
"Tell if you know where she is", I shouted.
Jas stopped again.
"Don’t touch ", I pushed him.
"I have been going crazy for years to find her and you all know but kept on hiding as you all know nothing. Do I look like a joke to you? Ha, do I?" my voice sounded cold.
"Tell !!"
Still no one answered as Ayla really has the upper hand controlling them and I can’t no matter what I do.
"Please, I beg you to tell !!"
All looked away from which made leave the place.
***
I went there again after a few days.
"Tell please!!"
I begged again.
"Let see her please", again the sa reaction.
I was about to leave the place when Mr. White stopped .
"I will let her co back", he said, making my eyes light up.
"You will do?"
"Yeah I will."
"Dad, don’t do this!!!" Jace shouted but again no one listened to him.
"Dad, Ayoa won’t forgive you if she knows."
"Dad, don’t do this....
"Dad...
"Dad...

Present
"She ca back", I talked with Mr. White over call.
He took a break and said no.
Sothing feels off.
"When she is coming then?" I asked.
"She refused to co", his voice sounded odd.
"Oh is it?"
"Yeah", I hung up on him.
"Jas, let’s go White mansion", I said while he looked at with disbelief.
"Why all of sudden? When you just talked to him?"
"I didn’t think he was telling the truth so let’s go check", I said and we drove toward their mansion.
It took us ti to reach there but my heart kept on thumping loudly as if sothing was surely happening to . I know she is there and I can’t wait to see her and get hold of her.
I want to tie her up so that she never leaves .
I want to monopolize her.
"Aaron, we have reached", Jas said while I ran inside.
My heart gave weird feelings until I opened the main door and saw her right in front of . But that look was not what I was expecting but she had fear in her eyes. I can feel her entire body trembling seeing my right as well a hint of hatred filled for .
"Ayla"
I called out her na but she ran toward a particular room mumbling sothing which I couldn’t hear. She kept on mumbling as if it’s a chant for her.
I ran after her.
It feels as if we are doing hide and seek.
Not but basically all of us ran after her but before I could hold her she locked into the room.
"Ayla, co out!!"
"Ayla!!!"
"Let talk to you!!"
"Ayla"
"Ayla"
"Ayla"
"Ayla, I will count numbers if you don’t open the door I will break it."
"1"
"2"
"3"
"Break the door."
