Ariel Mackenzie is a tough and resilient woman who has always put her son, Jason, first, she could even go up the sky and pluck the moon for him. But when the assassin organization she works for demands the head of Jason's father, Vincent, Ariel is faced with a difficult decision, should she risk her future relationship her child, or save it by not completing the mission, which has dire consequences. Going back to her hometown did not only open up old wounds but it created new ones, secrets that were meant to be kept in the dark were brought to light, betrayals were made and and some relationships were broken.
"Ho... How?" Ariel asked him, now that she thought of it, she do remember him telling her to 'Think of Jason.' before pulling the trigger.
"I ran a DNA test, I'm sorry but the resemblance we have is too much to ignore." Vincent explained immediately apologizing while Ariel just sighed, it will be dumb of her to assume that Vincent will believe her lame ass excuse.
"Why did you have to fake your death? that was scary you know." Ariel muttered the second part, "As I said, surveillance, I wanted them to think i was dead, I'm pretty sure by now, my men would have taken Jason to the mansion where he is safe." Vincent smiled brushing her hair backwards.
"Thank you." Ariel whispered burying herself into his arms.
"Aren't you worried I made you fall in love with me so I can escape death?" Vincent chuckled deeply, hugging her back, "You've proven to me you're smarter than that." Ariel replied still inhaling his scent.
