My Dominating Apollo

Chapter 38



LYDIA’S POV:-

Please leave for christ sake, I mumbled as I watched Simon search for me. Because of the darkness around, I had an opportunity to hide but the way he was searching for me made it hard for me to hide.

I watched him push his blond hair back with his fingers in frustration, he kicked a rock in front of him in anger and turned around. I desperately waited for him to leave while placing my hands over my mouth. I peeped out and saw him walk back to his car, he opened his car door and stepped inside and drove away in anger.

I released a breath I was holding and slowly got up and looked around me, there was no one here, other than me. I swallowed hard while tears rolled in my eyes, how will I go back! I asked myself as I walked towards the road.

I walked through the way we came from London, it was dark and I was all alone, my body was shivering while a cold breeze hit my body. I wrapped my hands over my chest and began rubbing my shoulders.

Tears ran down my cheek while the memories I had with Simon flashed in front of my eyes, those were bitter memories which only make me sore inside If I remember them. The torture and his abuse broke me completely, it took years for me to get over it and move on.

He broke my heart and made it hard for me to trust people, my family and he, was a nightmare for me and to wake up from this nightmare It took a lot of strength for me and I would never, ever, want to go back there.

As I was walking on the road, I noticed car sounds and headlights coming behind me, I turned around and saw that the car was going to hit me. I widened my eyes while headlights were blinding my vision, as the loud horn hit my ears I shut my eyes in fear and waited for the impact.

“Lydia?” A deep male voice came with the sound of a car door being shut. I opened my eyes and when I saw the person walking towards me, I hurriedly stepped back in panic. Even though I couldn’t see who he was, I was afraid and I didn’t want it to be Simon.

“Lydia!” That person called me again, I turned around began running while turning my head and looking at him. My heart was beating rapidly against my ribcage, and tears were streaming down.

“Lydia! It’s me Romulus,” He screamed and hearing his words my legs stopped abruptly and I turned around, he was looking at me with a worried expression on his face while walking towards me.

A sigh of relief escaped my lips while looking at him, my legs automatically moved and I found myself running to him, I launched myself on him, hugging him tightly. He wrapped his hands around me while I placed my face against his chest and cried my eyes out.

I cried and cried, the fear of him coming back for me made me cry more, “I hate him,” I said while crying hard,

“Shh… It’s okay,” he whispered while stroking my hair. I cried and cried and slowly my eyelids felt heavy and I found myself losing my consciousness.

The sound of horns and headlights of somethings flashed on me making me open my eyes, I saw a car passing past us. I blinked and suddenly panic took over me thinking that Simon caught me. I quickly turned my head and sighed when I saw Romulus’s calm face.

“Relax, It’s me,” he said without looking at me,

I leaned back and took a deep breath closing my eyes, “Thank you,” I said opening my eyes and looking at him. He was quiet for a while, I doubt he heard me at all. I didn’t say anything much to him and just stared at the road and passed trees.

“Who were you running from?” he calmly asked, I sighed and didn’t look at him nor did I answer his question. I was quiet while Simon’s past wicked actions flashed in front of my eyes. I wiped a lone tear which slipped from my eye and looked away.

“Lydia! You need to tell someone about him, someday… and I don’t mind to be the first person,” He said, I turned my head to look at him and something about him always made me feel different.

“I will, but not now,” I simply said, he nodded his head and didn’t say anything more. The drive to London was quiet. We didn’t say anything to each other till we reached London.

“I’m taking you to my place, I think it’s safe for you,” he said driving to his place, I tried to say no but he cut me off.

“He doesn’t know where I live and I don’t think he would dare to come there, so.. Just… don’t argue now!” he said, I shut my mouth and let him drive.

“This is your room,” he said opening a guest room in his condo, I stepped inside and turned to him.

“Take rest and I’m going out… if you need anything call, Oscar,” he said showing me a man standing beside him, he was tall but not taller than Romulus and had a moustache. He was manly and looked a bit aged with strands of grey hair.

“Oscar!” he said looking towards him and he nodded his head at Romulus.

Without looking at me he turned and walked away, I closed the door and sighed deeply.

CLARISSA’S POV:-

We were now driving to his parent’s house and I was very nervous inside, I was dressed in a simple peach colour dress, which reached my knees and wore heels with them. Apollo was dressed in a white shirt underneath a black coat and a bowtie. We took a gift for them in our way and I made him choose what should it be because I know nothing about his parents.

We reached a big three-story mansion, it was a huge estate with garden on either side of the driveway and trees surrounding the mansion. It looked so beautiful. Apollo parked the car in the parking lot and stepped out of his car. He walked around and opened the car door for me.

“Thank you,” I said while taking his hand and stepping out of the car.

He led me towards the main door of the mansion while placing his hand in the small of my back, it was a Hollywood style super mansion. As he led me inside I gasped in awe, it was so beautiful mansion I ever saw in my life. It looked so expensive with glass lift and a huge hall with sitting area and huge dining room.

No wonder they’re one of the richest family of London, I thought while walking with Apollo. He led me to the big dining table which had people sitting and talking with each other. I see two men along with Mr. Mathew, who sitting on the head chair and a woman sitting on his right side, quietly listening to them talking.

Hearing our footsteps they stopped talking and looked at us, with 4 pair of eyes staring at me made me self conscious and nervous. I felt a light squeeze on my hand and when I looked up, I found Apollo’s beautiful blue eyes stareing down at me. He gave a small smile and that action made my inners relax a bit.

We walked towards them and I noticed a glint of happiness in that woman’s eyes and it made me realize that she must be his mother. He left a chair beside his mother and pulled the one beside it, I sat down on it. He moved beside me and sat on a chair to my right. I was shocked at his action and glanced at his mother to see a pained expression cross her features but she quickly covered it with a pleasant smile.

“Hello dear,” she greeted me with a smile.

“Hello,” I replied,.

“My name is Sophie, Apollo’s mother,” she said with a smile.

“Nice meeting you Miss. Villin, My name is Clarissa Green,” I said shooking her hand.

As I turned to face the men in front of me,

“Won’t you introduce your little woman to us, Little Brother?” a man dressed in a Blue suit, sitting beside Mathew said with a smirk playing on his face. I glanced at Apollo and saw him unaffected. He was calm as usual,

“That’s Jacob,” he said looking at me.

“She’s Clarissa,” he said without looking at him.

“Nice meeting you, Miss Green,” Jacob said,

“Nice meeting you too,” I replied.

This is gonna be a long dinner night! Jesus!
