Chapter 49: Chapter 49

Aires'POV

I heard the argument as soon as I entered the house, as usual, it was coming from Dad's room, he and mum must be at it again but it seems to me that whatever their problem is this time around is huge,

"I won't let you use that boy at your whim, I know there must be a reason for your recent show of affection, all I'm asking is to leave him alone and out of any of your plans", my mum's tone held a bit of both pleading and warning,

"I'll do whatever I damn well pleased with him, he is a nobody to me and that rascal even came to my office to challenge me, he will definitely pay for that"

"If you so much as touch a strand of hair on his head, I'll..."

"You'll what? You can't even walk", my mum was silent for a while and I knew that Dad has struck a sensitive chord, I clenched my fist, that monster, to think that I almost thought he has changed, I made to go up the stairs towards their room but my dad's next word stopped me on my track,

"Aires is my revenge tool and I am going to have my revenge, in the end, he will have to die anyways", I heard the door open and I knew he had left the room, that means that he is coming towards the stairs,

"You would do no such thing, if you dare, I'll reveal your dirty little secret to the world",

They were now on top of the stairs, I wondered what dirty little secret my dad has that mum is threatening with,

"You would do no such thing", he snarled,

"Oh yes I can and I will"

"Not if I have a say in it, I won't let you", there was a bit of scuffle up there and then, to my horror, I saw my mum rolling down the stairs, her wheelchair rolling right behind her,

"Mom!!!" I screamed, just as she rolled to the foot of the stairs, unconscious.

"Mom!!!" I screamed again, running towards her, I lifted her head up and my hand touched wetness, I stared at the blood on my palm, the floor was soon covered with blood, I stared at my dad who had slowly come down the stairs and was staring at her without any expression on his face, he isn't even making any move to help, I guess his intention was to have her killed, I stood up angrily and grabbed his collar,

"Don't just stand there, take her to the hospital",

"Do you realize that you're holding your father's collar?" He asked coldly and I didn't know if I should laugh at his sick joke or just punch him,

"Fuck the word father, you're an irredeemable monster, now, take her to the hospital"

He pushed me away from him and tapped my cheek with his palm, "or what, what are you gonna do boy? She's like that because of you, she fell down from the stairs trying to defend you, so, everything that happened is all your fault", I shook my head at him, I can't believe that he's actually blaming me for what had just happened, well, now is not the right time to argue with him,

"If she dies, I am a witness to her murder, and trust me when I say that you won't get away with it",

He stared at me for a moment, something in my eyes must have warned him because he brought out his phone,

"I'll call the doctor".

***

"Please, do not let my wife die, I love her so much", I watched as my dad tries desperately to keep up with the perfect family facade, he even managed to fake a tear for the press, I don't know how they've gotten wind of our situation but they're here, what makes me sick is how they sympathized with him, they think he is very devastated about his wife accident, if only they knew that he is the monster that put her in that condition, I walked away from his side and located a chair at a far end, I just want to put distance between us because I do not trust myself to stand there quietly without revealing his monster side,

"He's still in shock, we're both in shock, now, please, can you leave us alone? We need to keep waiting for news from the doctor", I heard him say to the press, who once more sympathized with him before leaving, I heard his footsteps coming towards me and he sat down beside me,

"You shouldn't have walked away from the press", he said but I'm in no mood to give him a reply, all I am interested to know now is to know about the health condition of my mom,

"I'm talking to you", he snarled into my ears while keeping a smile on his face for people walking around,

"I can't stand your lies, I'll expose you for the monster you are"

"Watch your language boy, I am still your father and you better not do anything to tarnish my image, or else, your mother and sister will have to pay for it since it's obvious that you've suddenly grown wings"

I felt anger pulse through my veins at his threat over my mother and Jasmine,

"Don't you dare do anything to Jasmine",

"Then be a good boy and keep playing the role of a good son, then, they'll be spared, I gritted my teeth and stood up to leave just as the doctor came out, I paused and stared at the doctor, my heart beating wildly in trepidation,

"How's my mother doctor?"

"She's still alive but she's in a coma, we have no idea when she will wake up", without another word, I staggered out of the hospital.

Daisy's POV

"What the hell happened to your face?" Aires asked as soon as I got to school, he was standing just outside my classroom and leaning on the wall, I hadn't expected to see him in school today after seeing the horrible thing that happened to his mum on the news, I would have missed that news if Desiree hadn't sent the video of it to me,

"I asked you a question", I unconsciously touched my face that still has the faint mark of Celine's slap last night, just as I opened my mouth to answer, I sighted Celine watching me from inside, her eyes daring me to tell on her, I shook my head, I don't want more trouble from her,

"I hit my face on the doorknob", I murmured

"Are you blind or something?" He fumed

"Are you suddenly showing concern for me because you've found out that I'm your sister?" I asked, trying to divert the topic and it worked, his eyes went completely blank for a moment,

"You'll like that wouldn't you?" He asked in a low tone and I shrugged,

"Weather I like it or not does not matter, the fact remains that you're my brother", I still don't know how I feel about that knowledge but the fact that I have been given my first orgasm by my brother did not sit well with me,

"Do not call me your brother", I opened my mouth to answer but his next word stopped me,

"How do you feel about seeing your father after many years?"

I shrugged, "I don't know, all I know is that I have plenty of questions going through my head, most of all, I wished to know why he abandoned us"

"I'll advise you not to waste your affection on him", I frowned at his tone, why is he saying that, did he not get along well with him? Or perhaps, he simply does not want to share him with me,

"I'll give you a chance for all your questions to be answered", I stared at him trying to comprehend what he meant by that,

"How?" I asked,

"Because we're going to see him right now and you can ask him those questions yourself", he grabbed my hands and started dragging me along with him,

"B... but, I...I..have class"

"You can skip it for a day, can't you?"

I sat stiffly in his car as he drove out of the school, I might get into a problem with the school, I wonder what excuse my father has to say when I finally ask him all the questions running through my head.
