Damien dug his hands into the sockets of the cannibals, eager to pull out the eyeballs of the fellow. His eyes were glowing and his teeth gritting. The rest of the cannibals had dropped on their knees out of fear. Damien couldn't quite tell what had gotten into him. He didn't know why he was acting that way. He almost had his way, but then dropped the cannibal. The cannibal landed heavily on the earth; Damien had lifted him with a hand high into the air. ~ what's that show for? ~He heard wolf the scorning. He wanted to changed the subject of his rage to the wolf but then recalled what recently happened to her. The cannibal who had dropped on the earth quickly joined the rest in bowing. The corners of his eyes were filled with blood which trailed off his cheeks. Damien should feel a sense of remorse but he didn't. He had his reason,but couldn't quite place where the feeling grew out from. "How many times would I tell you not to kill any human you come in contact with?"He yelled
"What am I supposed to do? How am I supposed to keep this out?"Elisa was standing by the door, her back to the office space. It seemed as though there was someone by the door in the hallway. "How am I supposed to keep this going? I don't want to run mad... I am sane. I'm okay..."She kept saying to herself. She looked stressed and her face pale. She looked like someone who had been bawling her eyes out since several days. "Where is he? Where the fuck did he disappear to? How could he just leave me to worry about all of this?"She complained bitterly, wishing she could exert her rage on something or someone. "Why are you so obstinate, Elisa?"A sudden but familiar voice came from behind her. It was thick and airy, yet sent chills down her spines. She felt too cold to turn at the first instance. It was as though she had lost every will to move her body. It was strange. When she finally got a hold of herself, she slowly turned to see who the intruder was. It was obvious in her react
"Damien is back? Really?"Jada was the one who started the conversation, looking from her phone to the rest of the girls who started walking out of their rooms to hear the details of the sudden call. "He is? After three days?""Three days? Is it up to three days already? I thought he was just away for one day or two."None of the girls paid attention to the girl who was busy doing the maths. They seemed to be more interested in the first idea that kicked the conversation into being. "Has he handled the situation? Did anyone tell him yet that majority of our fans are beginning to leave for other groups?"There was an edge in Lisa's voice at those words. "Why do you think he is back? Of course he must have heard about it! He didn't just come back because he wants to.""You can't be sure though, Damien is a meticulous and strange guy. You will be surprised to discover that he had been away for something that actually has nothing to do with the situation. You should know the person you
"From Lisa?"Jada brought up her phone, sitting up in the big bed. She opened the text message which she had just received. "Did she have my number off hand?"She muttered the question. "I had no idea that majority of the girls have --"She decided not to complete the sentence as soon as she started reading the text. The body of the text included,"How are you feeling baby boo. How is the baby? You have always been on our minds. We couldn't pass a day without thinking about you."Jada paused from reading the text. She bursted out laughing for a while. "What is Lisa on?"She said amidst the laugh. "What is she trying to get out of this."She decided to scroll through the text to the very last paragraph."We didn't actually, or we are not actually sending you this message only because we needed your help. But now that we are sending you the message, we would love for you to please arrange a meeting between Damien and us. Please it's about the group. We will appreciate your kind....
"You think I'll just forgive just because of that?"She quickly plucked her gaze away from him. She had gazed upon when he said those words, smitten by the mushiness and strangeness of his words. "You don't have to force yourself."He didn't for once take his eyes off hers. He kept looking up at her, staring at whichever part of her face she spared him to see. She looked back at him. She didn't want to look away this time. It was obvious in her eyes. "How dare you leave me by myself? Huh? What gives you the audacity?"She snapped at him. He could tell that she was still mad. There were shadows filling the corners of her eyes. He had no idea what he had done to her to get her that pissed off. Originally, whenever the girls get mad at him, in no time they would adjust and forget about whatever grudge they are bearing, because he was rich! But not at this moment, she seemed to be graduating from one level of rage to the other. Damien knew the difference. Not only did he have an objec
"For how long do we have to be quiet about this? Does it make any sense to you either?"The atmosphere in the hall was tense. The hall of the BMX tower had been filled with the board members who seemed to be caught up in a wild mood. It was written in all faces that something quite disturbing was happening or had happened. "If he doesn't think he could take care of the company, he could as well hand over the administration to someone else. If you ask me, he is quite young to know about matters that are this delicate. He shouldn't ruin this any further with youthful exuberance."Another of the men had staked a claim. His eyes were red. Though his eyes were red and demanding, yet his was the coolest amongst the rest. You want to imagine what mood the rest were spent in. "You have a point. He can't keep doing things because he feels like. He is only a business man. We are the one who had always been there for this group since the beginning of time. If anything goes wrong, he could sell
"Are you sure he is meeting with us?"Lisa asked, staring inquisitively at Jada. There was plea in her face as though she had answered the question in her own mind and wanted Jada to say exactly the same thing. "He is."Jada eased her mind. "How can you be sure though? We all know him, he doesn't stick to his words. He might have pushed you forward."Tendzel scorned. Jada turned to her in a glare. Not one of the girls didn't catch her reaction. It was strange to see her look at her mate that way. In that context. "What? Did I tell a lie?"Tendzel had carried on the argument. When Jada had glared at her, she didn't say a word. That was only a more reason for Tendzel to push further. If it was earlier, Jada would had pushed for it. "Please don't stress her. We all know what state she is in. And let's not be an ingrate here. If it is not because of her, we won't be standing here having a shot to meet with him."Mira pointed out. "That might be true, but then don't you think that som
The nine girls were looking from one person to the other. Damien was seated by a table as though nothing happened earlier. As though he hadn't recently acted so childishly and elated. But it didn't seem like he cared what their opinions about him were. Nothing seem to matter to him. Eight of the girls were seated on a long chair. Damien handed Jada a glass of water and nodded her to go join the rest of the girls on the long couch. Jada knew too well to ask questions. The rest of the girls did have couple things to say about that, but Damien wasn't ready to entertain it. What mattered to him was the fact that Jada understood what he was doing. It was the business of the group, and Jada was one of the girls. At least, until he says otherwise to the group. He was still in the old mood, nurturing and enjoying the fresh memories of his baby kicking. He couldn't get it away from his head. The picture was clear and lively in his mind. But he knew he had to tend to business at that momen
