But he couldn't, his leg was still hurting which initially ended up putting him back onto the bed, but at the same time he was confused about his feelings, "this was not the first time this had happened to me," he talked to himself.
"Maybe I should try befriending her, she doesn't seem to have anyone around her anyways, he said like a person who lost all of his memories.
Ohh my, what in the world am I thinking about!"

"Adrienne, get up on your legs! someone said. Without even thinking twice Adrienne got up and looked down.
Is this how you are taking care of the master!? Is this how you were trained!? Were you trained to be hurt just because of a set of words?
Look at my eyes if you have realised what you have done wrong!
Adrienne without a doubt looked straight into her eyes, she was hurt for some reason that she didn't even know.
I am sore mam I will get back to work right now. Adrienne wiped away the tears on her face and bowed."
"I am glad that you came back to your senses, and the real reason I am here is not that. I am here to tell you about the new set of rules that you have to follow from now on.
Yes please go on, Adrienne said.
Okay then listen carefully:
You are no longer required to be under his control 24/7 instead on certain occasions you are completely allowed to take decisions in his stead;
you will follow him where ever he goes from today onwards;
you are to take care of him until the contract expires and the last clause is;
you are to execute anyone or whoever it is that threatens his life."
"Also, good news. Master Aiden is officially the CEO now, his inauguration ceremony will be held as soon as he recovers and the other thing is that it would be better if he can quickly return to the company.
The controversy and the damage the company had to go through is pretty huge. If we are unable to recover it pretty soon otherwise the stock prices might fall off."
"Here is the new contract and a new set of clothes for you and for Master Aiden, I am not that concerned about him but it is not okay for a lady to be in wet clothes for a long time.
So go away now!"
Adrienne was actually happy to hear that even she will have a chance to rule over him on certain occasions.
"Your rule on me is over Aiden, she told herself smiling."
"What are you so happy about? It was Aiden who was coming toward them. Well, I guess if it was something that made you happy, on the contrary, it must be something that is not in my favour.
Well… Master Aiden, Secretary Adrienne I have to go now. Please deliver the messages I told you to master Aiden and you are absolutely not allowed to quit your job, she left."
"You must be happy? Aiden asked.
Master Aiden, I don't think that this is a good place to be talking and yes I am happy. We can talk when we get back into the room.
What's with that attitude of yours!? Aiden asked.
I am sorry if my words offended you, but I only said, we must return to your room. Master, you are injured and can you not see the fact that your wound has started to bleed again."
"There is something off here, how in the freaking world did you muster up your courage to talk to me like that!
Just remember this, your life belongs to me and it's not the other way around. So don't try to get smart with me. Unless you want yourself rotting somewhere, Aiden grabbed Adrienne by her neck and pushed her against the wall. He brought his mouth closer to her ear and whispered, I hope you understood!?"
Adrienne's legs gave up bringing her onto the floor, Aiden left the place leaving her just as it is.
She got back on her legs and walked back to the room, as expected Aiden was not resting or sleeping, he was gazing at the moon that was waning.
She had always been curious about his obsession with the moon, whenever the moon was there in the sky he would keep looking at it at least for a few hours.
"it was as if the moon was his source of peace and happiness."
"Master Aiden would you like something to eat, she asked.
Come here, he said. She was surprised by his words but even if she wanted to refuse his words and turn back she couldn't. Instead, she walked to him.
Look at the moon, he said. It is beautiful, isn't it?
His words were confusing, the way he talked was something that she hasn't experienced in the past few years.
Yes indeed it is beautiful, she is the goddess of the dark sky, after all, she said to exaggerate her answer."
"If you think that the moon is only one person you are wrong, one fact is correct I must admit. She is comprised of Luna from heaven, Diana from earth and Hecate from the underworld.
Adrienne kept listening to him as if she was listening to a history lecture because though she had always been interested in learning them, she was never allowed to do so."
"What the hell! why are you so into the nonsense that I am talking about right now?"
As expected she just stayed silent without speaking much, okay then since you like listening to it let me tell you that they are not the real queens or the rulers of the dark sky or the moon.
"Nyx is the real ruler of the dark sky, the night belongs to her and I think everything I do belongs to her too.
Adrienne looked at him as if she was listening to someone who is delusional but she was indeed listening to someone delusional she knew what exactly he was talking about, he was talking about nothing but the murders that he had committed so far.
The so-called nights he talks about were the nights he took the lives of countless men, with the number of men he had already killed. It was nothing for him to go on a mass spree of murders anytime and if that was to happen she knew that she would be the first to die.
There was a huge difference between her and him, regardless of how many people he kills he will never get called out to custody but if it was her who used to kill people in the past was to kill someone now, without doubt, she would be thrown away like a rag doll to protect someone else's life from any bad luck."
"Why did you come here if you didn't want to hear my words? It was Aiden's words."
What I wanted to tell you about was that, he handed a picture over to her saying. End him within the next 3 days…
