Chapter 351 - Phoenix Queen Part 1
Agatha woke up suddenly and found herself in the bed. Then she heard chopper. She immediately slid off from the bed and run to the balcony and unlocked it. It's a double door and she couldn't open it because they had it locked from the outside. She groaned in anger. She ran to the door and locked it and then put a chair on the knob so no one could open it then she ran back to the balcony and searched around.
Aha! She found it out. The glass isn't made of fiber and it wasn't hard enough. She reached reach the hard chair and dragged it. Then she pushed it hard to the door and it didn't even break. She exhaled. She needed to find something else.
She heard gunshots outside and she peeked on the glass window. She pulled the binds and grabbed the lampshade and started flickering it so Dmitri could locate her.
Dmitri together with Andromeda and the man behind them seemed to be Fin? Anyway, she kept flickering it and screaming at Dmitri, but he couldn't hear her. They were surrounded by armies as they killed those who get in their way.
They stopped when Adrian met them with a smile. Dmitri is furious and his eyes are deadly.
She reached the sharp thing as décor for the fake chimney. It's made of iron and it's thin. She dragged it to the glass window and poke it to the very middle as it smashes. She removed the other glasses around it and then she called for him.
"Dmitri!" She shouted.
Dmitri looked up at her and he didn't think twice of running toward her and jumped up like an expert acrobat. He climbed up the wall up to the balcony. She waited until he reached the door. He smashed the lock from the outside with his hand and she doesn't know what it's made of for him to easily break. She doesn't care. But her husband is there to save her and their baby.
He opened the door and he covered her as a gunshot hit him at the back. He groaned and he steadied himself to stay still and hugged her pulling her away to the corner.
"Dmitri…" She cried.

Andromeda watched as Adrian's men are being shot right through the head. She's just standing in the middle and behind her is Fin covering her and protecting her. Adrian couldn't smile and his lips are trembling in anger.
Someone shot Dmitri and his men become more dangerous as Fin quickly grabbed Adrian's assistant and place a knife to his neck. Adrian's men pointed a gun to Fin and even a sniper had a red light to his head. However, there is more red light to Adrian's forehead.
"Oh, come on! I dislike making someone else's lawn to be bloody. You have a great lawn, by the way. If you keep this up, your whole mansion will be bloodier." She said with a smirk. "How dare you try to kill my Uncle? You even kidnapped a Mondragon!"
"She's not a Mondragon, she's a Pattinson." He said with a smirk. He couldn't accept that she's a Black-Mondragon.
"Dmitri Black Mondragon is my Uncle legally and Agatha Pattinson is Black and a Mondragon." She explains it a little.
Soon enough, Agatha and Dmitri are already on the doorstep with ninjas surrounded them to protect them with an emblem of half-dragon and half-phoenix on their chests.
Suddenly, Agatha unclasped from Dmitri and rushed to Adrian. He received a very strong punched from Agatha that made him stepped back.
"You asshole! How dare you beat up my Dmitri and bruise his face?! I am going to fucking kill you." Before she attacked him again, Dmitri held her up to calm her.
"Love, calm down." He kissed her head and still she's furious. He held her stomach and caressed it. "Baby, calm down." He kissed her lips. He carried her as the ninjas surrounded them and move like they are their permanent shield.
She wrapped her arms around him.
"Did you hurt your fist?" He asked in a honeyed voice.
"A little."
Fin slice the back of Adrian's assistant and pushed him in front of him. He stepped back and stayed behind Andromeda.
"Mondragon will not let this off," Andromeda said. She just declared war once that they blow again. "Let's go." She turned back and Fin followed as they left Adrian's lawn will his assassins dead on the grass. They didn't just use bullets, but Fin's men sliced their throat before they could even fire.
Andromeda never thought that Fin had these kinds of people. They are precise on their target.

Dmitri finally took her to their safe house, and he gave Fin the location. Agatha's stomach growls and she looked at him with teary eyes. Then she started crying. She probably didn't eat anything in that house because she's afraid to get poisoned. His poor wife. He took her out of the car, and she wrapped herself around him like a child.
"I had prepared fruits for you, darling." He kissed her temple and he unlocked the house with his code and his handprint. Then, the whole house became alive. Since its voice generated with a sensor around it, he didn't need to go to the switch to turn on the lights.
He brought her to the kitchen and helped her wash her hands. He may be spoiled her a lot and taking care of her like an infant but, she's an independent woman. She's just depended on him because he liked spoiling her.
He took out a glass bottle from the fridge with a seal on it and he removed the seal and gave it to her. The water comes from his water-station and it's purified, fresh from the mountains. He wanted to make sure that she's healthy and safe.
She sipped on it and sighed.
"Drink more." He told. She's super dehydrated because she kept crying on their way. He took out the fresh strawberries and washed it then put it on the drainer and then transfer it on the bowl for her to eat.
She started munching it like a hungry cavewoman. Then he pulled out the vegetables and other ingredients that are he needed to feed her and their baby. He looked at her and then he noticed her red fist. He immediately put the knife down and checked it himself. He forgot to check it since she's busy crying.
He checked it and massaged it.
"It's fine." She said.
"Is this the reason why you keep crying a while ago?" He asked with a frown.
"No." She answered and use her other hand to pick up strawberries as she eats. He rushed to the fridge and opened the freezer. Then he took out ice cubes and put it on a zip lock bag. Then he took her hand and place it flat over the counter table and told her not to move it. "It's cold!" she complained.
"It's a bag full of ice, dummy. You hurt yourself so you better deal with it." He said a little annoyed. Agatha didn't move her hand and bit hack her tongue like she's been scolded by her father.
He continued chopping fast and it's the only sound that could be heard.
"C-Can I put out my hand? I'm getting numb." She asked. He grabbed a clean towel and wrapped her hand with it. "Please don't get mad anymore."
He hugged her and kissed her forehead.
"I am not mad, anymore." He muttered and hugged her. She pushed him a little so she could kiss his lips.
"Come on, hurry up. Baby's hungry."
He smiled and he continued cooking.
The food that he prepared is a lot more than he expected and she finished it and he just gave her a little help. Then, she finally walked around the house and checked everything.
"Why are there so many locks on it?" She suddenly asked. "Even the fridge has locks?" She asked.
"It can only open by scanning our hand." He said and wiped his hand as he held the handle of the cabinet fridge as the handle scanned his hand in a two-second and he opened it.
"Oh. Cool." She tried the other one with her left hand it granted access.
"Why did you put access to it?" She asked.
"It's safer that way. I can't let you eat poison."
"Oh." She looked at him. "You are being paranoid."
"Moira almost got poisoned if she drank all of the champagne. Besides, someone can always set us up. The Eagles are good at poisons. They practice it a lot to avoid bloodshed."
"You are being paranoid. We are alone in this house."
"We will not be alone anymore. I would increase security. Eagle could always find us."
"Really?" She asked.
"Yes. Freya might soon join you. She's not safe in Manhattan anymore. So, I offered her to stay here with you."
They went outside and she loved the trees with growing lemons and other fruit-bearing trees.
"Who takes care of those trees?" She asked.
"I take care of those maybe twice a month. They don't need to be pampered with care."
"I love it here."
"There's so much more inside." He murmured and hugged her from behind. "But we need to take a shower before sleeping.
"Hmm."
