Owned By a Greek god

**** RYAN P. O. V ****

“Where do we want to go?” As she came up behind me, she asked.

“Somewhere to get away from the stress of my brother.” I told one of the maids to wave.

“Bring me two bottles of wine.” She nodded, looked at Melina, and then walked away.

“Champagne?” She asked what I’d been up to.

“A little break from my bothersome little brother.” I said smiling.

When we got to the back of the house, where Jason’s swimming pool was, we stopped. I stood by the pool and watched her to see how surprised she was.

“Wow. I had no idea he had something similar here.” She said that, and I smiled again as I looked at the pool.

I asked, “Isn’t it pretty?” and she nodded.

“Yes. The lights are working really well.” She said with a smile, and I just looked at her.

“Finally I made you smile. I’ve always wanted makeup like that.” I said something, and the maid came from behind with a tray holding two glasses of champagne.

“Thanks.” I said that you should get the two before you face Melina.

“Here. Get this “I said.

“I don’t think that’s a good idea, so no. I would make your brother so mad.” She said that she was moving back a bit.

“Believe me, I can look after my brother. I know you haven’t had anything to drink all day.” She smiled and reached for it as I said it.

“Thank you Sir.” I laughed at what she said.

“It’s Ryan.” I said, and as she drank, she looked at me.

“Calling you about that will cause trouble.” I sighed when she said it.

“I understand. But you say that to him when you call me that. When you say it when I’m the only one around, it won’t cause trouble.” I said and she nodded.

“I need to go back now. I am feeling tired.” She said it, and I made a face.

“Are you really worn out? Or you aren’t comfortable Been with me.” She sighed after I said it.

“Perhaps both. After what Jason did to me, I just can’t trust anyone in your family.” She said and I nodded.

“Melina, I know exactly what you mean. But next time, try seeing what’s good about people.” I said sipping my drink again.

“Your brother has nothing good about him. All of him is dark and bad.” She said with anger.

“You can’t know that. You would soon find out. Don’t hate him, because it’s pointless because he doesn’t care if you do.” I said and she nodded.

“We’re glad you’re back. I hope you have a good time here.” She said this as she was leaving, and I sighed and sipped my drink. I watched her leave and then turned around to face the pool.

“Hey.” Jason called to me as he came up to me.

“His brother-in-law.” I said this while looking back and grinning a lot.

“I just now saw Melina walk through that door. How did she get here?” He asked.

“All we did was talk for a little while. Why do you care?” I asked smiling.

“Of course I don’t. She’s mine, so I can ask her anything I want, right?” He said looking away and I laughed.

“You are one bad a*s, Jason Emerson.” I said this as I drank the last bit of my drink.

“I’m sure I am. And don’t leave the party I plan for you the next time. Your guests are waiting.” He said this as he tapped my shoulders.

I said, “I’ll be there in a minute.”

“One more thing, stay out of the hallway so you don’t spill your drink.” I laughed at what he said.

“Or you mean, don’t go near the door to Melina’s room.” I said grinning.

“Same thing.” He said this as he walked away. I laughed and shook my head.

Little brother seems to look out for her so much.

**** AGNES P. O. V ****

Melina was sitting on the bed when I walked into her room.

“Look who arrived early!” I said Smiling.

“Agnes I am sorry. I had to leave early from the party. Didn’t feel good at all.” She said this as she sighed and lay down on the bed.

What went wrong this time? I asked smiling.

“Something very strange and dumb. An hour ago, my best friend was at the party.” She said looking at me.

“I’m glad to hear that, Gracie. At least you got another chance to see her.” She shook her head when I said it.

“It’s not a girl. And he came right up to Jason’s nose to get me out of here.” I couldn’t believe what she said.

“Wow, that’s brave and different.” I was surprised.

“That was a bad idea. Jason would have killed them if I hadn’t sent them away on time.” She spoke.

“That’s a good point. But why didn’t you take advantage of the chance right away?” I asked.

“My best friend is Agnes Harrison. If I had been self-centered, he would have killed him, his partner, and you. Then I’ll be back in this house, and it will be worse than ever.” She said that, and as I held her hand, I sighed.

“You were so kind to do that. For remember me.” She smiled when I said it.

“Agnes, you are the only person I can trust in this hell. Because I want to be free, I can’t let you go. I’ll never be able to forgive myself, and Tony will never be able to forgive me.” She said, and I smiled and kissed her hand.

“We’ll make it through. I promise.” I said.

“I know we will. But I’m afraid Harrison will return. When it comes to me, he is very set in his ways.” I sighed when she said it.

“We would make sure he doesn’t.” I said and she nodded.

“What happened with Ryan Emerson?” I asked, and she looked at me funny.

“Did you see it?” She asked and I nodded giggling.

“Agnes, look, nothing happened, right? He is still Jason’s brother because they share the same blood.” She said and I nodded.

“I’m aware of it. Ryan has changed, though. Records show that he was worse than Jason. But I guess that someone saw something good in him.” I said.

“You also heard that?” I said yes when she asked.

“That time was going by, and I was tempted to wait.” She smiled when I said it.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“I don’t see any good in Jason.” She spoke.

“Worse things were said about Ryan. But it looked like he did. You can find out that about Jason, which will change him.” I told her, and her eyes got narrow.

“Why do you care so much about us both?” She did.

“Melina, if you changed Jason, I would be more than happy to hear about it. He isn’t suppose to die.” She laughed at what I said.

“Seriously? Come on Agnes. Both of us know that’s not true.” She spoke.

“Believe me on this. Let’s talk to him about that.” She kept looking at me after I said it.

“I am speechless.” I smiled when she said it.

“I don’t think you’re not.” I said grinning.

“Right now, you should be with Tony. I need to get some fresh air.” She said, “I’m really breathing out.”

“Sure. Good night.” I said, “Standing up,” and then Jason walked in through the door. As soon as I saw him, my heart jumped out of fear. I remembered that if Gracie did something stupid, I would die.

“I was just about to leave.” I said as I walked out of the room with my head bowed.

I ran to my room and when I got there, Tony was already there waiting for me.

He kissed me and said, “Hey.”

“Hi.” I said smiling.

“What happened?” As I sat on the bed, he asked.

“Well. But I don’t like how this makes me feel. She cares for me.” I replied with sadness, and he took my hand.

“Agnes, she scared you because she wanted to make Jason suffer. I know you like her, but first things first. She needs to find Jason.” He said.

“I know Tony. It hurts, though, to know that we are using her against her will.” I said.

“Baby, Jason has had us as his slaves for 6 good years. We never wanted our lives to be like this, Agnes. We wanted to be happy and not have to be afraid of anyone. Jason took this away from us, so he needs to be hurt. And we’ll do everything we can to make him suffer until we’re free.” He told me, and I nodded while I kissed him.

“Tony, one more thing. Someone tried to help Melina today, and she called Harrison, her best friend.” I said.

“What? That’s not good. No one can help her. Our plans will fall apart.” He said and I nodded.

“I know, which is why we are going to wipe them out. It hurts a lot to think that she might never see her best friend again.” I said looking up into the sky.
