The Traps of Black Swan

Aaron noticed her smirk but she didn't look satisfied with the plan progress. Whatever they heard was actually giving her plan a splendid success so he asked, "Shouldn't you be happy hearing Sean?"

Aarvi splashed some water on her face and stood straight to face him, "Aaron Rivas, think constructively being pessimistic about the game."

Aaron couldn't guess the negative effect of the plan so he ignored and gently dabbed her face with a paper towel to dry her face.

Aarvi didn't evade what he was doing. She watched him who was deep in thought as he carefully took care of her, "You are planning to spoil me so that I don't get a thought of leaving you. Aren't you?"

Aaron faintly smiled but didn't respond. He knows extremely well that spoiling her wouldn't get him anything instead she will be cautious. Like now, she was standing stiffly and being overly wary about his presence. He doesn't blame her for that because he still doesn't know what happened after the wedding week and also because she is unused to care and concern.

Both left for the Avron mansion in his car, Aaron wondered, "Do you want to go out tomorrow?"

Aarvi who instructed a man to keep track of Sean for the night turned to him and inquired, "Out as in the date?"

Aaron took his eyes off from the laptop to see her raised brows in curiosity, "What do you think?"

Aarvi hadn't thought about dates. In fact, she never had been to one proper date. Her wedding was arranged in less than fifteen days and in the process of knowing each other, they only met in the company, her parent's villa, wedding shopping. 

"Sure!" She intended to do as he wanted and looked forward to their official first date. Whereas Aaron wanted her to be happy and excited but she was calm as a clam.

He slowly started to realize why she had told him that she can't love or requite his feelings. Excluding her work, she has to be well prepared for any outcome of her plans and that keeps bugging in her head avoiding any other ideas. 

She wasn't scared of getting pained but she was scared of hurting him. She didn't want their relationship to be one-sided from him and see him suffer silently.

He poked her arm seeing her lost in thoughts staring the dark. Aarvi jolted aside getting out of her trance and blurted out, "I am sorry." Her instincts were stressing her mind saying something is going to happen but she couldn't comprehend it.

Aarvi hated herself for letting her mind digress sitting next to Aaron who started worrying about her for nothing. "Aarvi?"

Since she had decided to give herself and him a chance, she didn't put on a fake expression so she didn't compose herself forcefully or forced a smile on her face. She wanted to be complete transparent and honest with him excluding her plans against some families.

Moving closer to him, she wrapped her hand around his arm and rested her head on his shoulder, "Don't worry so much. You will get age lines soon and then you won't look good."

Aaron was glad that she wasn't acting all fine. Adjusting her position to be more comfortable, he gently rubbed her head seeing her eyes closed, "Tired?"

"Hmm!" she pouted then complained, "I had so much work and that brainless man took rest of my energy." Then her eyes suddenly brightened remembering how she tortured Sean. She pulled her mobile out to show the pictures she secretly captured, "Do you know I had ordered all black food for him? He definitely puked his guts out..."

Then the rest of the journey both talked jovially, smiled, chuckled, teased ending their day pleasantly.

On the other end of the city, Sean hadn't cared about the murmuring couple at the restaurant while he was on the call and planned to check out Leon Harmon's true colors.

Soon Sara Dawson reached the restaurant clad in the black wearing sunglasses as Sean wanted. Hugging his arm and coyly swaying it, "Sean, are you going to ask me out tonight?" She shyly asked blushing attractively.

Sean felt nobody could ace an all-black look other than Aarvi. Looking at her in disgust which he concealed quickly and ignorantly said, "Let's go."

Optimistically, Sara followed him to his sports car and they left for the club. Sean was cautious to know whether Leon's men were following them as he had depicted Sara as his 'Beauty in black'. As he believed, they were following him at a safe distance to avoid Sean's suspicions.

Without letting Sara be identified by those men, he entered the club and met his best friend Mike. The same man who trades Sean's daily information to Leon Harmon.

"Sara, go over to our friends, I have some work," Sean instructed loudly in her ear.

Sara blushed when his lips unintendedly brushed her ear. Unwillingly, she accepted and went over the spoiled heirs' group.

Mike questioned when she left, "What's up with you? Why are you here with Sara Dawson? Is she your Beauty in Black?" He wasn't interested in his friend, he wanted to share it with Leon Harmon and demand new expensive things.

Sean didn't care to respond to his question and led him towards the restroom. Sean Harmon, he never cared about anybody even if he calls somebody as a friend. If not himself he only heard Leon Harmon and nobody disciplined him to have some manner.

In the restroom, Sean changed to all black, pants, and top topping with a jacket almost similar to Sara's outfit. Wearing a wig, he exited his block and saw Mike in his clothes.

His plan was to act like 'Beauty in Black' while Mike will behave like him. After parting with Mike, he wanted to check if Leon Harmon really was going to hurt after the threat. If he did, then Aarvi's fear was right, else it will prove Leon Harmon is the considerate, kind, and gentleman.

Mike's jaw dropped looking at Sean, If they use light makeup, nobody will believe him as a man looking at his face.

Now the upcoming events can be, 1. Leon Harmon gets caught in action and faces the wrath of Sean Harmon giving the success to Aarvi's plan.

2. Leon Harmon comprehending the plan which will fail Aarvi's plan.

3. Leon Harmon continues lying to keep his image as a caring brother intact which will fail Aarvi's plan and the chances of Sean leaking her appearance to Leon Harmon increases.
