Athena P.O.V

Well living with Leonardo, Adam, and Thomas is so strange.... they are all from different dimension of the world you can say?

One is really cheerful, one is really calm and one is well Leonardo, I don't know how to describe him at all.

Anyways they are all now in their office, while I am in my own library and oh my god I love the sound of that

My library, with thousands of books in it and all, is mine.

I will be reading again about Greek mythology. Why can't I get enough of this? I don't believe in them, to be honest, but they are just like such great stories I can't get enough of them. Right now I am reading one of my favorite stories of all time  ' Hades and Persephone' I mean come on, everyone can agree that is the best story of all the times.

I start reading for a while before my phone start to ring

" Hello?" I said

" Athena Wilson?" The Person asked

" yes, how can I help you?" I replied, closing the book with my finger in the between, so I won't lose where I was in reading.

" I have something important to tell you if you could meet up with me " I raised an eyebrow

" do I know you, sir ?" I asked confused

" no, but I know something very important about you, it is related to your parents' death" my eyes widened

What????

" Sir I don't-" he cut me off

" tomorrow at 3 a.m......" he then told me the address

" if you come or not it is your choice and you better not tell anyone, if I sense someone else is there you will lose this information forever " he then hang up. making me shocked, confused, and lost.

What is wrong? What about my parents' death? They died in a car accident. And are you telling me that, wasn't it?

" what is in that beautiful mind of yours that you didn't hear us calling you for dinner ?" I heard Leonardo voice bringing me out of my thought

I only shook my head with a smile

" nothing at all," I said as I stood up from where I was sitting on the floor

" ok then come and let's go and eat," he said as he offered me his hand which I gladly took it and nodded. I put my book back in the bookshelf behind me before we made our way out of this room.

Well one way to find out is to go there tomorrow

************
Today for my luck Leonardo went out for some business and that was enough to make me sneak out of the house. Right now I am in the restaurant that the man on the phone told me to be. He even booked a private room in the restaurant

What a hell is so important?

The waiter showed me the way towards the room and I took a deep breath before going inside

" Miss Athena, finally, I thought you wouldn't come," he said as he offered me a handshake and I took it

" I hope it will be important Mister...."

" please call me Jack, please have a seat " I nodded as I took my place and he took his

" so do you want to order anything " I just shook my head

I am not here to enjoy my time anyways

" ok so directly into business, I like it" he smirked which I don't like at all

" Miss Athena I am sorry to tell you this, but the accident from 2 years ago wasn't an accident " I watched him confused

" what do you mean by that?"

" well Miss Athena I have done some research on your parents' death and it turned out it wasn't an accident," he said as he took a deep breath

" Miss Athena I have to tell you that, the one behind your parents' death is no other than King himself " I watched him blankly

" Are you here to waste my time?" I asked mockingly

What does he mean?

" I am saying that your parent's death was a murder case and king is the one behind it " wait so what he is saying is that Leonardo... he killed my parents?

" and you are expecting me to believe you?" I asked raising an eyebrow

" I know, as you can already tell i don't like your boyfriend at all. But as i see you and your brother are innocent and it hurts me to see you being with someone who is behind you losing your parents at such a young age. You have the right not to believe me, but king can kill anyone in a blink of an eye just because they have done something he doesn't like it. And my point is killing your parents because of whatever reason he has, it is very much possible" to say I am so confused is understandable

" I also know it might be hard since you two are really close, but believe me the face he is showing to you is just a lie," he said make me now question who he this man is, all over again

" Look, I know him and I don't know you right? You came now, out of blue saying that the man I love is the one who killed my parents and what did you expect from me? ' oh my god how could he ?' Or cliché drama ?" I am now getting angry for real, I stood up taking my bag. I was about to open the door when he said a few words made me stop

" and what if I had a proof " I turn to him with a questioning look

" I am asking what if I show you proof, " I thought about it for one minute

What if he shows me proof?

What will happen?

What if that is actually the truth?

Then my life will turn upside down

" I know you are looking for a reason to get away from this because it is hard. But I do have proof" I slowly made my way towards the chair I was just sitting on and sat down once more

" what.. what kind of proof ?" I asked slowly

" have you ever seen the car or the driver of the car that got into the accident with your parents?" He asked Make me think for a bit

No

I haven't seen him or her because the car that did hit my parent's car disappeared out of the blue before anyone could get into the scene and no one could find the person.

" just as I thought..." I saw him smirking, making me feel sick

" you know no one knows, but I just happen to find the car and who it belongs too with proof" he put his bag on the table opening it as he brought his laptop out and turn it on as he starts typing the keyboard before showing me a video. My eyes widened

It- it's my parent's car as they are getting crashed with another car. He stopped the video suddenly

" do you see the car number ?" He asked and I looked closely and yes I see it

" now look at this pictures" he then brought some pictures out from his bag and gave them to me, I took them with my shaky hands.

I felt my heart dropped

It was pictures of Leonardo coming out of a car, but not just any car. it was the same car that got into the accident with mom and dad. Same car, same numbers.

" now you believe me? I told you that man can do anything he wants just because he wants it" he said as he stood up

" I know you are innocent, that is why my boss decided to let you see things the way they really are," he said make me slowly look up so I will meet his gaze

" here is my number, if you wanted anything you can contact me. I am telling you the sooner you will leave him the better because when the right time comes for us to attack, as much as we hate to hurt innocent people, we won't spare anyone" he said as he left his card on the table before taking his laptop back to his bag and left the room. meanwhile, I was there like a statue just staring at those pictures in my hands

What is happening? What will I do now?
