The Traps of Black Swan

Aaron was quick to notice Milo Wen sneaked out. And it was a matter of time his wife would step inside. So he needs to finish what he started.

A smirk appeared on Roach's face when Aaron's expression changed. He guessed Aaron was studying Leon's basic movements which tells a lot about the advanced skills. And then, Aaron slammed his palms on Leon's chest and the latter stumbled away.

"Convince!?" Aaron asked Leon, flexing his wrist, "When did I ever say you can negotiate?"

The hit on his chest was too strong, Leon felt it hard to breathe for a moment when he heard Aaron's cold voice ringing in his ear. His words clicked his nerves. He clenched his teeth and asked, "State the price." 

Truth to be told, he had nothing to give them. Aarvi and Aaron had everything needed.. He didn't think that offering company shares, money, properties, or anything would work. They didn't want that.

Yet he wanted to meet Aaron if he had something Aaron wanted. Hearing his words only meant, Aaron just wanted to beat him. So Leon attacked again, fiercely. This time the muscles clashing and low grunts sounded nonstop. Aaron matched the speed of Leon but the strength, he was lacking a bit against Leon.

"Your life." Aaron ended the rally of hurting each other with a punch on the jaws.

Aaron shook his hand when Leon spit the blood and glared at him. He was against just beating or getting beaten. He didn't invite himself for this. He was a businessman, he won't do anything that gives him no benefit.

His brain again started working reverse. Now Aaron was in his hands. Roach was far away. If he manages to have Aaron under his feet with his life at risk, he couldn't only get off the situation but also play on his terms.

He felt it was the best opportunity for him and the worst decision for Aaron. A lopsided smirk appeared on his face, "Perhaps yours." He attacked Aaron more brutally.

"Overconfidence," Roach muttered. It was hard to say who he called 'overconfident.' However, his eyes were glued on the two men. 

He didn't know Leon's capability but he was aware of Aaron. He couldn't say if Aaron was holding back or he wasn't working out. Aaron was at the shorter end as Leon's attack just turned fiercer with every move.

For some reason, Leon wasn't attacking Aaron's face. Then Roach's brows lifted higher, Aaron was controlling Leon and his moves even though Leon seemed to dominate. 

Milo Wen returned. He hadn't memorized Aarvi's number so he reached his wife from the gym cleaner's mobile. He asked Esme to give the gym address with two names to Aarvi Evans. When he saw two men, he gasped looking at Aaron bear a strong blow on his stomach. He pushed Roach, "Stop them." Milo Wen knew Roach could stop them, physically.

Roach didn't peel his eyes away. He studied Leon. The fiercer Leon became, he started showing off all his moves and Aaron was studying each one while defending and dodging. Leon was getting tired while Aaron hadn't lost an ounce of energy. It was pissing off Leon.

"President Rivas will win." Roach voiced when he sensed Milo Wen was losing his cool. It was a rare sight. 

Milo Wen paused. He couldn't read anything looking at the fight. All he knew was if this continued, Aaron would be hospitalized with injuries. "Win what? Young Madam's ire?" He hissed in annoyance.

Roach couldn't stop from turning to Milo Wen. In his view, Milo Wen was behaving like a helpless whining wife.

In the ring, Leon was too confident and failed to read in. He gave away all his strong moves to win Aaron. At one point, Aaron failed to dodge and grunted at the pain that jabbed his gut. It was the third blow he bore in ten minutes.

Leon was too strong to lose his breath so soon. He sneered, "Now Little Lamb will shed real tears." He got closer to Aaron who was trying to stand straight, "With you in my hands, she will obey all my orders." 

He pushed his fist on the handsome face to ruin it. Before it could touch, Aaron held his fist. Leon tried to push while Aaron tried to twist his hand. Leon's face contoured in pain when a sly smile on Aaron's face appeared as if Leon's strength didn't matter.

"Leon Harmon, you still didn't understand my wife. Did you?" Aaron pitied the man for always thinking others are below him. Probably it wasn't his thinking, Leon was like that. He was used to keeping himself above everyone.

Pushing him away, Aaron attacked the first time. The clashing, hitting, punching noises increased with Leon's groans. The referee had long gone when both didn't follow the rules. Milo Wen's face got the color back and grinned. He was scolding himself for underestimating Aaron due to Leon's bulky body.

'Thump.' Leon fell down when he couldn't hold the heavy blow. His face had bruises and his body sustained some too.

Aaron sat on his toes watching Leon breathing heavily. "What made you think my wife needs a man to support her?" 

Crying? She cries, falls weak. It wasn't because Leon does something or is scared of him. Her mind was much faster than Leon could imagine. 

Leon gritted his teeth as he stood up holding his ribs. He had forgotten Aaron was a doctor. The fatal points are easy for him to find and crush. His strength was less but he was agile and smarter with human anatomy. 

Aaron too stood up while he corrected Leon's brain, "She is a queen who doesn't need a king to rule." She was an independent woman. So independent that, sometimes he fears she might not need him in her life. 

Of course, She loves him a lot. And that doesn't mean she has to be dependent. He won't have an issue even if she becomes dependent.

'Pow.' Aaron shoved his fist harder in the stomach of Leon.

Leon tried to block but it hurt his hand more. He groaned in pain as he stumbled back.

Aaron realized one thing after all these. If he recalls Aarvi's life in the past two years, one year in a vegetative state, he still finds his heart heavy. So beating Leon just hurt him. Nothing can undo the past. What Aarvi suffered will stay with her a few years, he will feel down watching her struggle. So his thoughts of venting his frustration to feel light and peaceful weren't the right decision. 

Rather he should have used this time for him and his Cupcake. If he had gone to his Cupcake and teased her, it would bring happiness, create some memories, and get rid of unwanted memories. 

'I deserve my Cupcake's wrath.' He thought, deciding to confess first so that she couldn't stay angry at him.

However, Aaron had a question for Leon. He punched him to the ground and choked him. He asked through the teeth as he tightened his grip, "Who is the last man?"

Leon heard Aaron. He was quick to guess who was that man and he also realized Aaron doesn't know everything yet. Aarvi hadn't told him. But how could he respond while being choked to death? He desperately tapped on the floor accepting his defeat when his eyes started rolling back and could barely breathe or see anything. He felt his lungs burning without oxygen and his body turning numb. His body slowly stopped struggling, giving up on his life.
