Athena's POV

It's currently five in the afternoon and we just reached the airport. John opened my door and helped me out. "Thank you John," I said and he gave me a small smile. Max was busy typing something on his phone so I went to the back of the car and helped John to take the suitcases out. "Oh no Ms Demetrius, I'll do it," John said taking the suitcase from my arms.

As we stood there waiting for John to get the suitcases, four more guys in black suit similar as John emerged from a car behind us. I couldn't help but frown. Are those all Max's bodyguards? "Come Athena," Max called out for me.

We walked in followed by the four other men and John, who were carrying all the suitcases. "Max, check in is this way," I said as I saw the big Check In written in bold. "We don't need that, little dove," he said as he held my hand and pulled me in another direction.

"What do you mean," I said as I was genuinely confused. Aren't we flying abroad? To think of it I realised that Max hasn't even given me my ticket. "We are travelling in my jet," he said nonchalantly.

"What," I said in utmost shock. "You have a jet," I said as I truly blown away by that. He chuckled at my reaction and just nodded. Damn he loaded, I didn't even realise that. "Okay then," I said to myself.

After all the formalities were done, which took like only fifteen minutes, we made our way to the huge glass door. "Mr Knight, it's nice to have you back," a beautiful woman, in a nice blue uniform. "Ms Demetrius, it's a pleasure," she said making me smile. She knows my name.

As we got in the jet, the flight attendants settled us down. Taking my backpack off my back, I put it on my lap. This backpack is my life, it has my drawing supplies and my snacks that I packed. One of the flight attendants came in, pulling my out of my reverie. "Sir, Ma'am, we will taking off in 5 minute. Can you please fasten your seat-belts," she said.

The jet started moving, I immediately tensed up. I suddenly started feeling very nervous. Gripping the side of my seats, I instantly closed my eyes. My heart started speeding up and I started breathing heavily. "Athena," Max said, sounding worried.

Opening my eyes, I looked at him. He was sitting just beside me. He slid his hand into mine and gave me a reassuring smile. Just then, the jet starting going up and I felt a sudden pressure on my entire body. I didn't realised that I was squeezing Max's hand as if my life depended on it.

"Now it wasn't all that bad," I said to myself. The other air hostess came into the room. "Mr Knight, would you like something to drink," she said as gave him a big smile. Why does she look like she took a plate of flour and splashed it on her face?

"I'll have a coffee. What will you have, little dove," he said as he looked at me. At the same time, the air hostess looked at me in disgust while she raised her eyebrows. What the hell? What is her problem?

"Uh can I have hot chocolate," I asked Max and he nodded. "You heard her," Max said dryly to the air hostess and she nodded before leaving. "Do you want a snack," I asked Max as I looked through my backpack. "You brought snacks," he said as he looked like he was trying to hold back his laughter.

"Are you seriously laughing at me," I said as I scoffed. "Well no problem, just more snacks for me. Maybe the other guys will want my snack," I said as I unbuckled my seat-belt and walked to John.

As I reached, all the five men stopped and looked at me in shock. "What is wrong guys," I said as I sat next to John. "Uh Nothing Miss Demetrius. Do you need anything," John asked and I just shook my head. "So I don't know your names," I said to the four other bodyguards in front of me.

There is Rick, he is 27 years old. He has beautiful blue eyes and he is awfully tall. Ethan is 35 years old and he has jet black hair. I also got to know that he has two kids and he showed me their pictures. They are just beautiful kids. Dan is the youngest one, he is 20 years old and he is the funny one. Jackson is the one who is 23 years old, just like me. He is a bit scary and cold.

"Athena are you still mad," Max asked as he walked over to us. Well I forgot about that but when he mentioned it again I decided to just annoy him, I should pretend to still be mad. "So do you guys want doritos," I asked as I pulled it out of my bag. All five of them looked at me in shock as I was ignoring Max.

"Athena," he said harshly. I couldn't help but laugh at him boiling up. "Did you say something, Mr Knight," I said as I batted my eyelashes innocently. Out of nowhere, he grabbed my hand and pulled me.

Now we are in a small room. I couldn't help but laugh at his frustration. "Oh it's funny to ignore me, huh," he said as he tried to grab my hand but I managed to slip away and run to the bed. He looked at me with a frown.

"Come here, Athena," he said making me squirm away. Him just saying my name do things to me. "Is the mighty Mr Knight playing," I said as I laughed. As he finally caught me, he pulled me towards him, making me collide into his rock hard chest.

"Do you have a wall instead of chest," I said as I placed my hands against his chest. He just chuckled and shook his head. "You are really something," Max said as he pushed a strand of hair from my face.

He started leaning towards me. I was about to say something but was interrupted by a knock on the door. "Mr Knight,"I heard before the door opened. "Uh we will be experiencing a little bit of turbulence. Please can you get back in your seat and fasten your seat-belts," she said before going away.

I walked out with Max following me. I was about to walk back to the bodyguards but I guess Max had other ideas as he grabbed my arm and pulled me onto my previous seat. "Okay then," I said as I sat down.
