Stalker

'___' : Thoughts

"___" : Speaking

------------------------

(3rd Person POV)

Aston asked with curiosity, "So, what was the reason that you came to my room? From your expression which seemed to be on the verge of despair, I can see that you are shaken up physically as well as mentally. Is it Dion Agriche?"

Roxana was slightly surprised and implored him, "How do you know about that?"

"Well, from what I can see, only your family members in this family can affect you to this state. Your brother Jeremy isn't the one to affect you so severely and your father won't take liberty with you as he wants to give you to me in the best condition possible. From what I have checked your other family members of this family, there isn't anyone other than your half-brother, Dion who can have such an impact on your mental self."

Roxana nodded wearily, not even reacting much, " You are right. That bastard has returned from the mission that the patriarch gave to him. He ruined my entire day just by showing his face to me. I have another request to you regarding your alliance."

"Woah, Woah. Miss Roxana, aren't you demanding too much, considering you don't have much to offer in our alliance? Still, I can agree to your request if it aligns with my plan or at the worst doesn't delay it."

Roxana took a sigh and looked at Aston with determined eyes, "When you destroy this family, I want to be allowed to kill the people I want in this family. Just that. I just want the opportunity. You can give it to me whenever you want. I don't care, I just want to relish the feeling of them dying under my hands."

Aston stroked his chin while thinking and then replied positively, "I can agree with that. It won't be a problem with my plan, I don't have much use for your family, anyway. Well, I don't think you know but your half-brother stalks you regularly."

Hearing that, Roxana blinked her eyes and asked incredulously, " What?"

Aston nodded and said, 'Yeah, that's the truth. Actually, he didn't come to this estate some time ago, he was here a couple of days ago. Edmund and I, both noticed his presence whenever you would come to deliver the food. He was creeping around you almost every time you came out of your room. For some reason, he didn't enter your room to look at you. He just stayed outside your room. I am surprised you didn't notice him."

Her face turned disgusted and she exclaimed, "Why in the holy hell is he stalking me? How disgusting and creepy someone can be? Holy fu**ing hell, I am just so much more motivated to kill him when you are done using him."

Aston replied, "But that will take some time. Can you just tolerate him watching you creepily? What will you do?" The last question by Aston was meant to test her reaction to see what will she thinks to get rid of him. It's a surety that she won't just put up with him. Roxana would prove to be much more entertaining than Aston earlier thought.

Roxana started wracking her mind to think about what to do, she just wanted to kill him all alone but she isn't powerful enough to do that. She might be able to stand her ground if she uses her butterflies against him, but she won't win at all. He would just brute force his way to her. He might seem nothing to people like Aston and Edmund, but he has a lot of strength, and endurance in his lean body build and he can easily overpower Roxana in those aspects. He is agile enough to dodge her attacks, not that he needs to do so. He would just parry them easily.

She looked at the person in front of her. He is wealthy, strong and influential enough that Dion isn't even a match. Dion only has strength, he had never worked on his wealth and influence aspect. The money that Dion can use is the one that belongs to the Agriche family and he doesn't possess any smudge of influence. He had always worked in the shadow, so according to people, Dion is just one of the children of the Agriches. Influence and wealth can play a very important part in noble society.

Roxana clenched her hand as she hated the idea which was coming to her, but there was no choice. She couldn't think of anything else, and even though she wouldn't have opted for this idea ever, the thought of Dion stalking her was even worse.

Choosing between Aston and Dion was a matter of thinking about what was the lesser evil and Aston was the choice for her every time. She had the thought of killing that bastard every time she saw him. He was revolting. The only reason she hasn't attempted to kill him is that he is strong and her father would be a big problem as Dion is the favourite child of Lant Agriche.

Roxana took a deep breath and said diplomatically, "I have a proposition which can be beneficial for both of us."

Aston asked in an interested tone, "Oh, do tell. I am interested in your proposition."

"I would like to-"

(End of the Chapter)

Yeah, sorry but I have some personal problems that I have to deal with. So, the updates will be irregular and short. I may resolve it in a couple of weeks.

Throw power stones at me and get a slight R-18 chapter tomorrow!
