READY TO FORGIVE

Arianna had to visit her mother at the visitor's room that morning after freshening up.

"Your friend Tianna left the room an hour ago,she didn't listen when I told her to wait".

Arianna just nodded and sat down beside her.

"What could be her crime that made you hate her this much, she kept saying she did the worse ,and that she is never worthy of your friendship again even though she will support anyway possible but I am just curious, she never told me what she did exactly, she cried for real telling me about that"her mother said to her.

Arianna sighed.

"Please mother, I don't want to talk about Tianna, I came to talk about our wedding with you".

Her mother's face lightened up.

"Now that some good news".

*****

Arianna decided to stop at the gym house to talk to Kate but unfortunately she didn't meet her there. She returned to Andre's room but heard Aliecia's voice on her way in.

"What are you doing here?"

Andre asked rudely.

"Is that supposed to be a question Andre,I am your wife , and you are asking what I am doing in our room?"

"You disappeared and came back, out of nowhere to claim what you are not, don't be a nuisance Aliecia,you know it's over".

"What am I not? Funny Andre, as far as you are concerned,I am your wife and this is where I will stay".

"It's over Aliecia,you should know it by now, I can't continue to play your games, I am getting married to Arianna this week and nothing is going to stop this time,not even you".

"I love how much credit you gave to me by that statement but it wasn't enough because I can not lose to that bitch Andre, we are married and that's it".

"If you insist on being my wife, be my guest but I won't be responsible for anything about you, not even your corpse".

"The pleasure is mine".

She smiled back, then Arianna opened the door slowly.

Seeing her Aliecia's anger was rekindled.

"Get back until we are done talking".

She snapped.

"Have you gone nuts Aliecia?"Andre blasted her after the way addressed Arianna.

"It's okay Teddy,I understand how she feels, she's frustrated,if I was in her shoes I would say worse".

Arianna said and walked over to Andre's side.

"Enjoy while you can, you are going to cry and this time, it will be the end of you in the Hitler's, mark my word".

Aliecia mouthed and turned to leave.

"I bet you to try your best and all, Aliecia,I am not afraid of you and I trust Teddy, he is mine,you can give your best shot".

Arianna replied bravely.

Andre was surprised and proud too, he smiled at her then glanced back at Aliecia , staring at the two of them in awe.

"Hmmmph! Don't get so excited,it won't be long, just wait for me".

She turned back to the door.

"Bitch"she mumbled the curse and walked out of the room.

Heart heavy with anger, hatred, she walked through the passageway.

She took her phone from her pant's pocket and dialed a secret number.

"I will be double for the job done".

A male voice answered her call.

"And what is that supposed to mean?"she snapped in a whisper, glancing to her left and right.

"You asshole! Fine, get me a gun,I will do it myself!"

She shouted into her phone and hung up with a groan.

A message came into her phone again, it was the blackmailer.

"What the hell did you want? To frustrate me? I offered you millions to take the video down, how long will you put this blackmailing up?"

She texted him back.

"I have a mission, now if you leave the Hitler's mansion forever, I might consider your offer".

She read the message and then she thought of something.

The blackmailer warned her to stay away from the Hitler's, which means the blackmailer must be involved with one of the Hitler's sons or the blackmailer is actually one of them.

"Evans"she muttered to herself and walked towards the exit that leads to Evans room.

*******

"You sound so brave when you talk to her".

Andre said to Arianna, hands wrapped around her waist.

"Well I trust you, that gave me the boldness to face her"she smiled back and they kissed.

Her phone rang, interrupting the moment.

"Hello?"

"Hello".

Arianna's eyes darkened when she heard that voice. Andre noticed and it worried him ,he wondered who that might be.

"What do you want?"

Arianna asked and eyed Andre, she knew he must have noticed her body language and decided to pay more attention to her phone conversation.

"I know you hate me Ari.."

"Don't call me that"Arianna replied tartly trying to control her emotions.

"I am asking for you friendship, I don't deserve it, I only want your forgiveness Arianna, I was a mad Inlove stupidly,I thought I was doing what's best for us…for me.i didn't imagine bring with someone else,I acted with my heart instead of thinking it through,I only wanted to separate you from Andre by framing him up, I agreed to Alecia's plan but it turned out I was played,she never told me about the rape and sex clips,I was stupid enough to fall into her trap, but I gave everything under control now, I will make her pay for all the pains she caused you, I promise Arianna".

Arianna opened her mouth to say a word but nothing came out.

"Have a nice day Arianna and Goodluck,I am sure you are happy,that's all that matters…I…".

Arianna hung up before he could conclude.

"Who?"

Andre asked softly.

"Max".

Arianna replied and quietly walked to the bed, and sat down.

Her hands were shaking as she tried not to cry.

"He is a jerk".

Andre said to her and sat beside her.

"Yeah right he is"Arianna laughed sadly , brushing her tears off with the back of her palm.

"He is also a good friend, as much as I hate him,I know he does care about you, I would kill to stop any man from taking you away from me,so I understand how he might have felt then".

Arianna stares up at him.

"I never expected him to do that, Aliecia tricked him but still …"

She cried quietly,pressed her lips together.

Andre hugged her and kissed her on the cheek.

"Why don't you two fix a date, and meet up".

Arianna pulled out from the hug with a frown.

"Don't pretend as if you are going to be okay with that".

"I never said you are going alone, I will stay by the corner, keeping my eyes on you, I am not taking chances anymore".

Andre replied and kissed her then wrapped her up in a warm embrace.

She smells like rises ,coconut and vanilla, he could smell her all day.

Arianna smiled back after that statement of his. She felt a bit relieved after his statement, not that she was scared about being alone with Max but she was scared of Andre's reaction to him. She couldn't hate either of them ,even as much as she tried to prove it to everyone. Deep down ,she loved them dearly, being her only friends.

Betrayal hurts especially when it comes from your best trusted people.

"I think I am ready to forgive them".

She said smiling as Andre tightened his arms around her.

"I am proud of you, taking that from your heart but please be careful with them".

He replied

"Don't worry, Teddy will protect me,"Arianna teased.

"Of Course he will protect his uniform, and baby unicorn too".

"It's a baby Teddy"Arianna corrected.

"It's a unicorn".

Andre insisted.

"Why do you want a unicorn?"Arianna asked curiously, most fathers want a baby boy first or could she be wrong about that.

"I am not ready to share you with another Teddy".
