The Traps of Black Swan

In the villa of Aaron and Aarvi,

Aaron worked while Aarvi was busy. He was reading some medical books when she was going on about the safety of everyone over a call because she had a strong intuition Leon was going to do something. 

After some time, he closed the book, took her mobile from her hands while saying, "Take rest Cupcake." It also served as the last words for the speaker at the other end of the call. 

"Ronron..." Aarvi tried to take her mobile standing on her toes, but he shifted his hand away and scooped her to his arms.

He saw her jut her lips out, sulking in his arms, "I understand you wanted to be careful." He placed her on the bed and cupped her face to look up at him, "Some things can't be controlled until they happen. So you need to rest to be well prepared to face the new day." His deep soothing voice and calm face relaxed her.

Aarvi wouldn't have worked up if Leon would play fair. But Leon aims at the lives of people. Whatever Aaron said was right, so she pouted helplessly and gave him an obedient nod in acceptance. A smile soon graced her face when he guided her to lie on the bed, ticked her in, and pecked on her forehead. 

"I love you, Ronron." She grabbed his face and gave him a lingering sweet kiss on the cheek. 

Melting his wife was so easy for him, "I love you too, my little wife…" He left her mobile on her bedside, "I will make a call and come. Don't use your mobile, sleep."

He knew his obedient little Cupcake, but an obedient wife was rare, seeing her nod and relaxing on the bed, snuggling against the pillow. "Come fast." She wanted him instead of the pillow.

"I will be back." He turned off the light and went out of the bedroom. 

He dialed Milo Wen who was busy cuddling his wife on the bed. Aaron instructed after hearing Milo Wen, "Get on the boat that is near your bedroom pool. Inform the team to be on high alert. Leon Harmon's men are following Dylan Harmon." He meant there was a team surrounding the palm tree they were staying in.

"Roger that…" There was a pause from Milo Wen's side, probably asking Esme to silently vacate. "President Rivas, what about you and Young madam?" He asked hurriedly but in a low voice.

Aaron, who lowered his mobile from his ear, decided to respond, "I will see you at the new villa." He ended the call and went to the bedroom, turning off all the lights.

He didn't tell anything to Aarvi so that she could catch some sleep instead of being sleepless all night. He couldn't believe while she was trying to protect others, she forgot herself. 

As soon as he got on the bed, she snuggled into his arms. He was glad she wasn't being mischievous and dozed off quickly. He could have stayed in the villa increasing security but he didn't want to take any chance as it was easier to attack by water and destroy the villa.

Carefully scooping her to his arms, he got on to the small boat Roach was driving. They didn't switch on the engine and floated away in silence and darkness. The duo heard Aarvi mumble as the window was open, she could smell the seawater, anyway, Aaron coaxed her to sleep.

They were soon shifted to a land villa, which had all the facilities and private from the resort chain. 

Esme and Milo Wen were waiting for them and breathed in relief seeing sleepy Aarvi rubbing her eyes, clutching Aaron's arm while walking inside in a nightwear topped with Aaron's jacket, asking what was going on.

Aaron straight-faced lied, "Water Level was increasing so it wasn't safe."

Esme and Milo: "..."

Aarvi opened her eyes wide. The sleepiness and laziness vanished in a second. The one who stood there was President Evans, "Why haven't I heard this before? This is an issue if we have to vacate the guests due to bad weather…" She started thinking about the business acquisition.

Aaron: "..."

Milo Wen silently laughed thinking Aaron hadn't learned to lie smoothly. So he dropped his help but it was more like a tease to Aaron, "Young Madam, When the moon is closer to earth, water waves will increase by the shore. It's just that President Rivas is over-sensitive about your safety."

Aaron squinted his eyes at his Milo Wen. He just thought his secretary works better under pressure.

Milo Wen sounded so convincing and Aarvi knew Aaron was indeed very sensitive about her safety so she didn't think too much. 

She yawned lazily so Aaron wrapped his hand taking her upstairs. Aarvi waved her hand at Esme, groggily saying, "I am sorry for waking you guys up. Have a good night."

Esme waved her hand hiding her laughter with a graceful smile, "My husband is so smart." She mumbled watching the couple.

Milo Wen shook his head in resignation, "Aren't you afraid by all these?"

Esme leaned on him, while they went to their room upstairs, "I have you to protect me." Then she jumped with excitement, folding her hands, "This is thrilling. A bad guy as in movies chasing after us and we escaped from them."

Milo Wen: "..."

While the two women slept peacefully in the arms of their man, both men were half asleep as though waiting for some signal to change their location and keep their love safe.

-----

At the other end, Dylan went to sleep right after Aarvi left. He had no idea of Leon's plan or what Aarvi was going to ask him to do.

He had gone into a deep slumber, hence he didn't hear anybody opening the door of his bedroom. When he felt a cold metal press in his forehead, his eyes shot open.

He was certain the man couldn't be from Aarvi's side. He doubted any of Leon's enemies attacking him. So his guess was Leon Harmon himself.

He wasn't scared of death, so he looked very calm when he pulled himself up and switched on the table lamp while asking, "Who are you?"

Leon gritted his teeth seeing him so bloody calm while retracting his hand. He shoved the handgun to his pant's belt and turned to his men. They started looking around the room.

Dylan asked as he tried to stifle his yawn, "What happened, Brother Leon?" He feigned ignorance without bothering to ask why he had pointed his handgun on his forehead.

"Did you meet Ava… Aarvi Evans?" Leon asked directly. He got a picture of a lady in black walking out of Dylan's villa.

"Aarvi Evans? Nope. I am in the room all day." Dylan lied without batting an eyelid. He grabbed the shirt night robe of the resort and wore it, before getting off the bed.

Leon noticed, Dylan was just in boxers when he tied the robe, the bed was all messed up, two pillows were fallen on the ground, two wine flutes were on the table and Dylan looked lethargic, stretching his neck.

Leon was sure the girl in the picture looked like Aarvi even though her face wasn't visible. After that, none entered or left Dylan's room. So he wasn't ready to believe Aarvi Evans sleeping with Dylan. Never.

A man ran back to the bedroom and whispered to Leon, "We found ladies' undergarments. And used condoms in the bin. There is nothing notable or other traces of the woman."

Leon clenched his teeth. No, he wasn't willing to believe Aarvi slept with Dylan. Not even in his worst nightmares. Even though he was planning to kill Aarvi and Aaron, the thought of any man touching her made his blood boil in the veins.
