After running behind Axe for the whole day, they couldn't find anything useful but they started noticing some abnormal behaviour in him when he almost reached his home.
All of a sudden he disappeared when he was just a turn away from his house. They immediately informed Aiden about this. Aiden, who was nearby, joined his team in minutes.
They waited patiently near his home and some even entered his house without anyone noticing. Few stayed hidden behind the bushes to attack any time.
When Axe came back, he was carrying a huge takeout box. When he came home, he saw his teammates waiting near his house.
"Hey dude" Sam put his hand on Axe's shoulders and tried to enter the house.
Axe put a sudden break and stopped midway without entering his house. And just started speaking loudly, "what a pleasant surprise to see you all here! But why are you here??"
"Dude, we wanted to have dinner with you and look at you! Even though we didn't say before that we would be coming, you still bought such a huge amount of takeout food" another guy named Mist said and hugged Axe's shoulders from the other side.
"Looks like it is super heavy, let me help you" Flake who was standing behind him without showing any interest in all these conversations jumped in front of Axe and took the take out from his hand forcefully.
Axe by now almost peed his pants, he just wanted to run away right now. But before he could alert the people inside his house, Fog jumped on him from behind and said, "I did not know that your favourite food is chicken; even after being with you for so long, I missed to notice that. I need to spend more time with you now to know more about you"
Axe said "why do you even want to know more about me?? Are you going to marry me ??? I am straight please excuse me!!"
Axe tried to shake all of them off him, but they just wouldn't let him go. They just held him like they were glued to him and just won't fall off.
By now Axe understood that something was quite wrong but before he could even think about that, He saw Aiden from the corner of his eyes.
Why did he even think that he could even escape easily after helping his prisoner escape? How can he outsmart Aiden ?? Did he really lose his brain and even helped that chicken girl to run away??? This time he can just wait to hug his death and so he closed his eyes and waited for his soul to leave his body.
He kept on waiting but nothing happened. First, he half opened his right eye and saw that Aiden just knocked on his door and his idiotic sister who is mad for Aiden opened the door and even let him in!!
I do not need to search for an enemy outside, as I am actually growing one at home!
They lifted Axe up in the air and brought him inside. Everyone sat wherever they found comfortable. Once they were inside the house, they took pity and let Axe go.
But Axe didn't feel happy as he looked at Aiden who was now sitting on the chair like a king. They placed all the food on the dining table and opened the lids!!
They let the smell of the food travel everywhere, so the hidden mouse would come out and show itself. As expected in just a few minutes a figure came down while covering herself completely from head to toe.
The first one to see her and jump in horror was Sam. Then when Axe saw her, he just wanted to hang himself to death instead of waiting for one. But he didn't want to lose his neck so fast, so he said, "This is my distant cousin, she came from a faraway place and as she is too ugly, she doesn't like to show her face to anyone".
Still, no one said a thing, as they were totally defeated. They couldn't find anyone other than Axe's sister when they entered the house in secret. So actually they thought they have guessed wrong.
But who knew actually a living person would come out of nowhere and even turn out to be Axe's ugly cousin! When she came near, Aiden controlled his anger by digging his nails deep into his palm and it even started bleeding.
"Let's eat," Aiden said while moving towards the dining table.
He glared at Axe which made Him involuntarily move his leg muscles towards the table. As the table was small only four people could sit together, so the remaining just stood on the sides.
Aiden sat on one corner and Axe's sister Marina sat next to him. Next to her their ugly cousin sat, so left with no option Axe sat next to Aiden. As it is a round table everyone has to sit rather closely and each of them can even reach the end of the table quite easily.
Meanwhile, the team which was hiding behind the bushes wondered, should they go inside for dinner or just wait around until they get a signal from their boss.
All of a sudden Elina felt someone trying to feel her legs. They moved their legs up and down and then sideways while making all different shapes. She immediately bent down and saw it was Marina!
She kicked the leg back and even stomped her legs. Marina shouted and got up from her chair. Everyone looked at her but ignored her.
Still, Marina said, "It's just a cockroach, it ran over my legs and I got afraid and shouted."
She tried to sit back casually after saying that but she didn't know that Elina's mostly feared even hearing the word cockroach. The moment that word entered her ears, she jumped up and stood on the chair, she even climbed up the table and started running around, all the while shouting 'Aaaaaahhhhhhh'
When she climbed up the table all the food scattered around and some flew and landed on Aiden's face and even his shirt. Losing all the patience he pulled her hands and put her on his shoulders, and started walking towards the door.
When he almost reached the door, he turned around and ordered, "Take them both to the dungeon, I will decide the punishment later"
He went out and threw her into his car. Elina tried to open the door to escape but it was already auto-locked. Aiden stood outside for quite a while to compose himself. He felt many emotions but one of them is definitely a relief. He worried so much about her that he felt like he would just go mad if he didn't see her next second.
Now he just couldn't suppress his happiness which was clearly visible in his face. But with great effort, he controlled himself and hid his feelings well. He entered the car with an expressionless face and started it.
Elina just sat there in silence, she did not say a word and Aiden didn't expect her to say anything. He thought everything was good if she was just with him.
