BXBX NOVEL Chapter 869 - Four Seasons Hotel (3)
In the back seat of the car which moved through almost deserted streets toward the Four Seasons Hotel, Aiden held Sarah and rubbed her back gently.
"I can agree with letting Aaron go with intention to use him later, but you were too kind to Noah.", Aiden voiced his thoughts.
Sarah does not agree with that. "He is not normal. If I hurt him, he will not see that as a punishment no matter what I do. And while everyone plotted against us eagerly, he was quiet, except for one line which I'm not sure how to interpret… Anyway, you vented your anger on Noah, and I don't want to deal with him. Give him access to the club so that he can fight. He will come there regularly and get beaten up by random people. It's not like I'm letting him go without having any insurance. Don't forget about the tracker. Eve will let us know if he comes close or his movement pattern changes."
Sarah yawned and relaxed in Aiden's embrace... That pleasant back rub was difficult to resist.
Aiden looked at her nodding off gradually and he can only hope that letting Noah go like this will not backfire on them. That guy is unpredictable and definitely not normal.
By the time Sarah and Aiden reached the Four Seasons Hotel, Sarah was sound asleep. It was late in the evening, and the whole ordeal was exhausting for her, more mentally than physically.
Aiden noticed that as they progressed with their revenge, Sarah's energy was dropping, because she was fueled by that revenge. And now that it's over, she is exhausted.
He smiled gently while thinking that it's nothing that one night of good sleep can't fix.
Tomorrow, everything will be back to normal.
After two weeks of suffering and planning, it's over. Madison is taken care of, and others will find themselves in the morning newspapers. He looks forward to seeing the headlines. Austin's Zilker Metropolitan Park will never be the same.
Aiden carried Sarah into the room and placed her in the bed carefully. He removed her shoes and got in the bed next to her.
Aiden loves watching Sarah sleep. She is relaxed, peaceful, right next to him where she belongs.
He remembered that she used moniker Nyx. Goddess of the night. His Goddess. And he will be her Erebus, God of darkness.
Aiden thought that just how Nyx and Erebus created the world as we know it (based on the Greek mythology), that is how two of them will create a world of their own. The world where no one will dare to attack them, the world without Eastern European families… there will be no women like Madison and Evalina and Klark sisters, and no guys like Ed and Philip and Dodson brothers… With those thoughts, Aiden slept off while cradling Sarah in his arms. He was tired as well… even God of darkness needs to rest.
…
Sarah found herself in a meadow full of colorful wildflowers which reached her knees. Looking around, she can see the unspoiled forest circling around the meadow and the mountains with snowy peaks towering above the forest canopy. It is a beautiful day with few cotton-like clouds which don't obstruct the sun. When she looked back at the meadow, she saw Aiden standing there. His gentle gaze is directed at her and his signature devilish smile is on. He didn't say anything, but she knows that he is calling her to come closer… and she did. Few steps later she noticed his well-fitting completely white suit. Very handsome. Under the sunlight, he looks like he is glowing. Sarah checked herself and noticed that she is in white as well. Is that a wedding dress? She definitely has a bouquet of wildflowers in her hand. Are they getting married? She smiled and hurried toward him. They held hands and he lowered his head, leaning his forehead on hers while their wide smiles reflected each other.
Sarah moved and realized that she is in a hotel room. Ah, it was a dream. A wonderful dream. She can still remember Aiden's dark eyes full of love and if it lasted a fraction longer, they would certainly kiss. Sarah hoped that it's more than just a dream, because if she can foresee the future, this is how she would like her future to be: with Aiden, two of them… without anyone else interfering.
Sarah's nose scrunched. Why is she smelling blood? She glanced down and besides Aiden's arms which are wrapped around her, she noticed that she is wearing black t-shirt and jeans. It took her few seconds to recollect Black & White club and everything that happened in there… from her ten fights which led her to Amber and Jade, to the guys and Madison from the wedding. They washed hands more than once, but it's highly likely that some blood ended up on their clothes. Considering that she is trapped in Aiden's hug, she decided to leave shower and changing clothes for the morning, and she is still sleepy.
Thinking about those guys and Madison, Sarah is happy that it's over, but she does not feel the relief she hoped to achieve by giving them what they deserve. Shouldn't revenge do that, bring a closure? A relief? It does not seem like it.
Part of her feels uneasy. It's almost like she is expecting that someone will barge in and try to take what is hers. Sarah placed her hands over Aiden's. He is hers and she will defend what they have no matter how many come at her.
She observed the contrast of her dream and reality.
Reality is that two of them are wearing black and few hours ago they were in the presence of people who tried to come in-between them. And she knows that it's not over… there are more battles to come.
In her dream, they were wearing white, just the two of them... and she felt peaceful.
Sarah closed her eyes while hoping that dream is a something that will become reality in near future: they will transition from darkness to light and be able to relax and enjoy what they have. Together.
Aiden shifted in his sleep and his chin rested on her shoulder. His warm breath tickled her neck. How is she supposed to go back to sleep now?
Sarah moved a bit, and his hold on her tightened. She gave up on the idea to move further. Any tighter and she will have difficulty breathing. Sarah was happy when she realized that she achieved her goal when he moved his head slightly lower and she is not being tickled anymore.
Sarah settled into his embrace and soon drifted off back to sleep with hope to dream about that meadow again.
