The Traps of Black Swan

Sean heard Leon's decree hence patted him shaking his head. He wasn't saving those men, he didn't want his brother to lose top-notch trained killing machines. "I purposefully diverted them to get me. I wanted to..." He felt the pain increase after he started to relax. After a painful groan holding his waist, he continued, "I wanted to know how powerful you are. Bro, why did you hide from me? You are so influential and mighty.."

Aarvi's plan to create distance between the brothers - Failed.

Leon wasn't convinced by that. "No... They have to be careful even if a hundred people trick them."

Sean's mouth dried out and actioned to get him water as he tried to say, "Let it go, bro." Dylan passed water to Leon who helped Sean to drink first and turned to leave.

"Se- Sean... Br- Brother Leon..." Mike stuttered seeing them leave him behind.

Leon was contemplating, Sean spoke without caring Mike used to run around him from school time and do everything he was saying, "He might create a problem."

Mike who heard that cried out, "No, no, I will never do that. I will leave the country... I just followed them to protect Sean... You... Brother Leon, please. Let me go..."

Sean smirked and turned to a man. He twisted Mike's words and lazily said pointing Mike, "He wants to leave the world."

Dylan gritted his teeth understanding Sean is no less criminal than Leon and the latter was amused and happy that Sean didn't disappoint him.

The man in uniformed black bowed and removed the handgun from his back. He pulled the slide back to recoil the gun and pointed it at the center of the forehead of Mike whose tears were continuing to flow unable to move when two men held him from both sides.

Mike knew he couldn't be saved anymore. He lost his hope sitting and watching the nozzle of the gun towards him. He felt his entire body numb, he can't feel any pain, no discomfort. He waited for his darkness to envelop him without control over himself.

Half of his mind said, fight for your life while the other half had given up a long back. His helpless gaze moved on two brother's backs, He bore the tantrums, outbursts, and silliness of the younger one while he used the same things to report it to the elder one and got the expensive things.

Even though he was selfish, he never thought of their death. His ailing voice sounded in the room, "Sean... I am your-"

'Bang'

In Avron Mansion

Aarvi shot up breathing heavily, precipitating profusely with her eyes watery. She hates her dreams, it's like ages she had a good dream.

Getting off the bed, she changed to gym wear and went to the gym. Sitting on the Stationary exercise bicycle, she started tiring herself to get some sleep later. While her mind started her plans, her legs increased the speed as her plan went more profound into the depths.

Her mind covered with the plot and schemes, she didn't notice the bicycle causing a lot of noise which woke Aaron up. Getting out of the bed, he went towards the gym accurately knowing she got the dream and straining herself to sleep again.

Leaning on the door frame, Aaron could only sigh seeing her lost in thoughts without noticing him or her speed of peddling. "Aarvi!"

His gentle, deep voice brought her back from her dark world and slowly decreased the pace of peddling as she asked, "Why are you awake?"

Aaron reached her without responding to her question and she guessed it, "Did I wake you up?" Saying it, she stepped on the floor but cried in pain, "Ahh..."

Aaron held her in time before she could fall or hold something to support herself, "Use treadmill next time." His voice sounded emotionless burying his worry and helplessness against her nightmares or her methods to get the sleep after dreams.

Since she keeps the treadmill at accurate speed, he thought that way, she wouldn't overstrain her legs but he heard her reveal a piece of truth he didn't know, "I subconsciously increase the speed... Once I had fallen down from it."

Aaron: "..."

If scolding or punishing her could solve the problem, he would have really done that to avoid seeing her exert so much pain just to sleep. 

"Aaron..." Aarvi squealed when he suddenly scooped her up while she was looking down stretching her ankles. Holding his shoulder, she peeked at his expressionless face. She wasn't sure if he was angry or concerned or both hearing her

"Let's find a new way to get sleep." He felt the necessity of it as he went towards her room. He didn't want to increase the medicine dosage which would instead give her back to back dreams and sometimes she ends up crying in sleep. He didn't want to torture her, compared to that physical exertion would be better.

'Music!' He thought to himself. Leaving her on the bed, he coldly dictated, "Stay right here."

"I am fine." She stated as her leg pain wasn't new to her and she had bear far deeper injuries to say it as unbearable. She saw him going to the ensuite as she yawned, she leaned on the headboard of the bed waiting for him.

Aaron exited the ensuite with a warm wet towel to see her sleeping peacefully with a faint smile on her lips. He resignedly smiled, shaking his head.

Keeping the towel on the bedside table, he laid her on the bed and gently dabbed her face and neck with a wet towel. It wasn't new for him to take care of her so his movements were a lot gentle and smooth without waking her up from the sleep.

After removing her shoes, he gave a gentle foot massage to relieve her leg pain and made sure she was comfortable before going to his room.

...

In the morning

Aarvi didn't get a dream again and slept for three more hours waking up fresh and light. She was planning to do yoga and swimming, Aaron knocked on the door before pushing it open.

Aarvi involuntarily smiled seeing his faint smile on his handsome face, "Morning..." Then her cheeks slightly turned pink remembering what she just did.

Aaron never got the morning wish from her unless he did and her voice was melodiously soft with a hint of grogginess sounding adorable. 

His lips were threatening him to widen looking at her divert her mind to her mobile. But his smile wasn't fated to last long and saw her face pale looking at her mobile screen.

Aaron quickly went next to her, "What's wrong?" Aarvi didn't avoid him. She let him take her mobile when he held it.

Aaron read the message glanced at her glum face.

'How could Harmons let her live peacefully?' He thought to himself as his hand caressed her head.
