The Traps of Black Swan

Nico was aware of the changes around him so he noticed Vance was lost in his own world of thoughts looking at Ms. Evans. He chose not to ask in front of all.

Aarvi wanted to leave, letting Vance hang about collaboration, and took a step towards her car without caring to bid any of them. Blake Wong quickly glanced at Nico before calling her, "Ms. Evans, please don't mind about Brother Nico, he is from the military and the controlling habit is in their blood."

The other three hummed in affirmation when Aarvi turned around, she glanced at Nico who was irritated. She didn't know the actual reason behind it but she understood well that he disgusts the Harmon family. Then her eyes darkened looking at the man next to Nico.

Who said Vance was pure? He was no less than Leon Harmon. Killing one or many, he is still called a criminal. Unaware, isn't Nico supporting the criminal standing by him?

'Military!' her smirk went unnoticeable and her voice was plain but it was no less than a warning, "Oops, I thought he is a God who wants to control everything whereas he just belongs to the border to protect us."

Nico's stare fixed on her dainty nonchalant face as though he wanted to slice her alive with his gaze, tightly compressed lips were trembling to counter back or probably warn her but he didn't know what to say.

It wasn't because she is Aaron's woman, she respected and knew the importance of the military, she didn't look down on the military but he lost honor because he tried to control everything around him. Of course, he isn't god and she is absolutely right with her words.

Blake regretted speaking up for Nico whose stare was like he was going to globble her. They were used to Nico's behavior hence they don't find it uncanny and they can also understand the lady's argument standing in front of them. 

Paul, Elliot never dared to go against Nico and they were even afraid to see his furious face. Talon who was older than these two and a friend of Nico awkwardly laughed, "Guys, chillax. Let's not bid on a bad note."

Then he turned to Nico and briefed her in a quick phase, "Brother Nico, Ms.Evans is an independent strong woman, unlike those spineless girls. Let's not make it a big deal."

Whereas Vance smirked in disappointment, thinking Ms. Evans was just a woman with a pea-sized brain for provoking the wrong man. "Nico, it's alright." He hadn't finished saying they heard Aarvi bidding to Blake, "I will take my leave." 

She again took a step to leave but somebody held her, The next movement her hand spun around and held the hand that touched her and twisted it in a mere second.

Nico was caught completely off guard and quickly got out of her hold in wonderment. He wanted to speak about Hays International for her hence he wanted to stop her but didn't expect her defense skills to be good. If Blake was in his position, he would be crying now holding his knee when he saw her ready to kick his knee.

"Wow!!!" Paul, Elliot, and Blake said in unison while Vance's eyes were wide open witnessing it live. He was cent percent sure she was a different person and she can't be Ava because he had never heard or seen Ava having any self-defense skills. Ava Kelly is just a weak girl is what he thinks.

Talon started chuckling and spoke about the Evans family daughter again, "Brother Nico, do you think she travels abroad having no skills up her sleeves?"

Aarvi's lips twitched uncontrollably, now she is curious who that girl Talhon kept praising nonstop and she was glad he hadn't seen her even once.

Nico raised his hands in the air watching her deathly calm face, 'How to achieve that composure?' Then he suddenly remembered Aaron's aloof face and was baffled.

"I'm..." He realized he wanted to apologize for the first time. He was confused about what was going on with him around Ms. Evans that he was losing composure repeatedly. 

Alright, it is true he was impressed by her superbike, especially her driving skills, he felt her beautiful but her mysterious peaceful look raised questions in him so he doubted on her, her boldness and her quick reflexes were commendable but he had seen far more strong women in the military but 'Why am I disordered?' He mentally decided to keep his distance from her.

His cold and poker expression hid all his emotions and confusion while speaking plainly, "You should give Hays International a chance."

Aarvi silently watched him and glanced at Vance before resting her clear yet resolute gaze on Nico. The latter conceded he was nowhere related to Hays International and he was talking for them. He cued Vance step ahead and took his cigarette out to smoke due to frustration. 

Aarvi didn't let Vance speak and plainly said, "Tomorrow seven at Cult-fit if you are interested." Cultfit, the top-ranked gym, and fitness center in Mocon under Skylar Industries.

Vance: "..."

Then Aarvi removed her leather jacket and threw at the guard who had rushed to her when she attacked Nico. That guard knew why she was giving it to him, it was to donate somebody needed instead of throwing it because Nico had held her arm and she would never touch it. 

Paul spoke merrily as Vance got the chance for the new project, "Ms. Evans, would like to have lunch with us?" He pointed to the restaurant as he invited while he gulped unknowingly looking at her lissom figure having the right curves at the right place.

Other men were no different, they checked her out with no control over themselves. She was wearing no exposing clothes, Full sleeve top covering till her wrist, and gloves showing no skin. The tights till ankle and the ankle-length boots left no gap, it was just her neck and petite face but she looked hot than those who wore skimpy clothes yet she didn't look lewd.

Nico was the first to look away and stub the cigarette to his lips for a long drag. He doesn't have a death wish to ogle Aaron's woman.

Aarvi immediately needed to reach the hospital for an ECG and she had no interest in having lunch with them. "I'm sorry, I have something to attend to. Hmmm... Breakfast in Cultfit? You all can join us, my treat." She wanted many people to witness Vance get beaten by Dax.

Blake responded first with a hint of shyness, "I work out in that gym anyway so I will be there."

Paul's voice sounded next, "I will come with Brother Vance."

Talon: "How can I miss breakfast with Lady boss?"

Elliot had a disappointed expression, "I have to go home for breakfast tomorrow."

The rest turned to Nico but Aarvi spoke, "See you then." It's better if Nico stays away from her. He was a man, a single doubt, he will hunt till the end.

She wasn't the one to waste money but she can't keep the clothes or use them after being touched by them. She wasn't ready to remember her most unfortunate days due to anything.

While going to her car, Aarvi removed the gloves and threw them to the bin before rubbing her hands with a tissue and hop in her car. She saw the truck arrive for the bike and she left without looking back.

Vance blurted out to Nico looking at the car leave, "Ava almost... exactly looks like Ms.Evans."

Nico's eyes sharpened instantly as if he found a criminal he needed to wipe out. He doesn't believe in coincidence and felt his instincts were right. "Evans'' He pulled his mobile out and dialed a number, "Follow Bugatti that is leaving Mount Mocon, instruct the team to block her."

Vance: "..."

Vance had forgotten he made a nest of lies and labeled Ava Kelly as 'Wh*re' who sleeps around. He tried to speak but he stopped himself. He couldn't possibly tell Nico that he was one who slept with Ava's best friend and cheated on her. With that, he labeled the innocent girl as sl*t and wh*re.

Will Nico pay for his audacity or will he capture her?
