Episode 27

Ethan walked into the room to get some files. If Grace which is Ariel to him, is really a spy he has to work faster and be one step ahead of whoever is toying with his country.

He stopped when he saw Tommy in Grace arm, they looked like mother and son. He felt some sort of sadness and guilt.

Maybe he is being too hard, Grace eyes was swollen and red, it was obvious she cried.

But he didn’t notice all he knew was the anger he was feeling. Since when did he cared about where she’s coming from?

Why was he so mad at the thought that she could be cheating on him. He isn’t in love with her, whatever it is she does with her life is none of his business.

He is going to divorce her pretty soon anyway. He should just focus on providing for his people.

He was still thinking when Tommy woke up, he sat up rubbing his eyes and Ethan just stood there staring at him.

“When did you get here?” Tommy asked as he got out of bed.

“Barely ten minutes” he replied and walked towards a table.

“Are you still mad at her?” Tommy asked.

He inquired after a short silence,” Why did you ask?”

“She’s hurt, whatever your reason is for getting mad at her I want you to forgive her. She’s going through pain too” he replied.

“I didn’t know you guys became buddies that she now tells you everything” he said sarcastically.

” Aunt Ariel is now a nice and good person. You just have to forgive her and hope to see the new good side of hers” he advised.

Ethan just chuckle and rough his hair playfully. “Are you going to forgive her?” He asked with a pout.

Ethan glance at Grace and returned his gaze to Tommy who was still smiling and pleading with his eyes.

“Fine, I will talk to her when she wakes up” he said.

” Promise!?” Tommy asked rasing his hand in a high five manner. They do that a lot.

“I promise” he replied interlocking their hand.

” Good, It’s getting late I should head to my room” he said and rushed out of the house.

Later at night Grace still showed no sign of waking up, Ethan even thought she’s faking it to avoid him. He has been sitting in the room since Tommy left.

Grace finally sat up, her face was swollen due to the fact that she cried before sleeping.

He walked towards the bed and sat in front of her, “how are you feeling?” He asked.

“Better” she answered, casually. She got out of bed and went into the bathroom.

After few minutes she walked out and sat on the bed.

She was feeling uncomfortable because of the awkward silence between them. She started, “I had nothing to do with the missing food and me leaving yesterday night was just a coincidence”

It was an indirect apology, he raised his head to see her. He wanted to see if she was just pulling his legs or she’s genuinely sorry.

Ariel usually have this kind of look in her eyeballs whenever she’s lying or angry.

Her eyes was truly sorry and sad. He moved closer and took her hand into his, “I’m sorry too. I shouldn’t have called you names and say all those harsh things to you” he apologized.

” It’s fine we were both angry and people do crazy things when they are angry” she said.

He eyes went to her lip, it looked soft and se.ducing. His hand voluntarily raised her jaw and she stared directly into his eyes. He licked his lower lip and gently move closer.

She didn’t push him away or ask what he’s doing, maybe she wants this too. Before she knew it his lip was on hers.

It was slow at first but as times went on, he increased his pace. He was in control, their tounges battle as their body request for more.

She found herself pulling him closer, he climbed on top of her as she is literally laying down.

He stopped when he noticed she was out of breath, they both gasp for air as they stared at each other.

Ethan was expecting her to sIap him or push him away but she didn’t do any of that.

Even if she did, he won’t regret kssing her. He smiled at her and she returned it. He took that a yes and started again making cold shiver run through her spine.

Someone suddenly barged in, Grace quickly pushed Ethan away, he landed on the bed breathing hard.

Blair bowed her head as she informed, “dinner is ready, his grace (Tommy) is waiting for the both of you”

” We.. we… We’ll be there” Ethan sturter still backing her while Grace head was bowed and she held the duvet close.

“Alright” she said and quickly glance at Grace, she could tell something transpired between them.

“I’m sorry” Ethan apologized and she wondered why. What happened between them was not a mistake or something to apologize for, it was amazing and she wished it countined.

“We should go and have dinner before Tommy suspect anything” he said with an awkward chuckled.

” Umm.. I’m not hungry” she said and he stared at her but she was staring at the duvet.

“Are you sure? You didn’t eat lunch, you slept the whole day, you should be hungry” he stated worriedly.

” I’m not, you guys should go ahead” she said and he didn’t want to argue further so he left.

She stared at the floor as her mind drifted to April and the twins, she was about to start crying when the door opened and Blair walked in with the look that says, *I want the truth*
