He held her hands and squeezed them lightly.
"Remember when the mansion was under attack?"
Mina rolled her eyes at him.
"Who could forget that. My men are still looking into that."
Aaron smiled proudly at her.
"That's my girl."
Mina smiled back.
"It was the work of my parents' right-hand man"
"I don't get you?"
Aaron took in a deep breath and explained everything.
Mina got up from her seat. Her hand is combing her hair.
"Hold on. You mean some psycho who I don't know anything about who tried to kill my baby and my friend?"
"Our baby, princess. But Ken and I are going to deal with him tomorrow evening." Aaron assured her.
"Hell, I'm coming with you guys. Now, why am I going to stand there for a parasite to make me feel threatened?" Mina snapped.
"That is why I'm here to deal with him. I know you can handle it but this is my fight, baby."
Aaron said trying to convince her. He can't lose her in a fight between him and Fernando.
He held her hand.
"Trust me, princess. I'm going to make him pay. And I can bring him here if you wanna vent on him." He said, he brought her hands to his lips, she kissed them." But I don't, I didn't want you to dirty your hands with blood."
Mina scoffed at him. " Too late, Vetercio. I already did."
Her words sting right into his heart. He caused everything. If he didn't disappear, his princess would still have clean hands. He pulled her closer to him and hugged her tightly. His breathing is racing.
"I'm sorry, princess. I caused all this. If.... I were still with you and didn't pretend, you wouldn't have been in this situation."
Mina sighed, and he rubbed his back. She felt his weight. She knew he'd regret his decision but this wasn't the time to sob.
"It's fine Aaron. I've already forgiven you. You didn't need to beat yourself to that."
"You don't understand, Mina. I don't regret anything in this life. Except for taking Amanda back and ruining you."
Mina pulled him away. She rolled her eyes at him.
"So you know you ruined my life?"
"You're not helping, babe. I ruined you for any man because you're mine. And I'm not sharing you. "
"I can't be yours forever, Aaron."
Mina bit on her tongue. She shouldn't have said that. Aaron stared at her with bloodshot eyes. His eye twitched - he lifted Mina's chin and pressed it firmly.
"You don't have a choice, mi amour. You are tied to me. You beamed my child and you're going to be with me. Fuck what you want."
Mina hissed. " You're hurting me, Aaron. Let go."
"Repeat it. You are mine and I'm yours. Until death do us part and that shit isn't coming any time soon."
Minas' throat tightened, but she had to make it clear to him.
"You can't threaten me, Vetercio. I know I'm tied to you, however, I get to make my own decision. I won't repeat it because you want me to but because I want to."
Aaron furrowed his brows. What was she attempting? Mina pulled herself away from his grip.
She sneaked her hand behind his hair and pulled his head back.
"Now listen pretty boy. You don't get to tell me what to do. You will listen to me and follow what I say. It's time to know who the real boss is. And that is me"
