The Villa was bustling with life and preparation, different happy chatters could be heard from every section of the house. "This is going to be a craizzy party!" Electra said with excitement, her eyes roaming around the beautiful decorations. "I know right, it's truly going to be wild. Everyone is so excited but if the party is held here, I think it's gonna be stuffy." Athena agreed, a low yawn escaping her mouth.She was beyond weary, she was just having a good sleep for the first time in a week and she couldn't even sleep for long, her girls kept disturbing her to come down. "It's not gonna be here, the party would be held outside the big vast open air. They are just so excited that they're decorating everywhere, most of your girls turned out to be decorative experts. We don't need to hire any decorative artists, they did all the work and I'm quite impressed." Electra said and Athena just smiled."We used to live in slums but one will never know it's a slum because of how they ta
Athena kept stealing peeks at Damon as he talked to some of the guests. Ever since he told her about their marriage, she'd been disturbed. "A glass of soft drink for you, boss." The girl serving as bartender offered her a glass of juice and Athena broke her fixed gaze on Damon to stare at the girl that just offered her a glass of juice. "Seriously, Leila?" She asked and the girl chuckled."It's mixed." She said and Athena nodded and drank the content immediately."Make it stronger," Athena said, dropping the glass on the counter.She has no idea why she's confused, getting married to Damon was the main reason she came here, she'd agreed to be his wife so they'd get revenge on the family that betrayed them all... Why then was she feeling all absurd when she thought about it? "Fuck!" She mused and took the second shot, "Give me tequila or vodka and make it really strong." She ordered again and the girl looked at her skeptically but she carried out her orders anyway. She needs to dri
Damon was woken up by the sound of the doorbell, his eyes flipped open, body recovering from the deep slumber. He observed his environment and began to wonder how he got to his room. Oh yeah, he'd woken up at his office earlier in the morning and came straight to bed. It looks like his body finally yielded to rest. It feels good to have a good sleep after a long while. He checked his wrist watch and his eyes widened, "Past ten in the morning! How the hell did I sleep like that?!" He muttered the question in awe.He was distracted again by the reason he'd woken up... The doorbell. He reached for the control key near his bed and tapped it, the door opened up. The room was dimly lit so he had no idea who just entered but the smell of coffee did brighten his spirit.What's better than a cup of coffee... Hopefully, it would be the big mug, he's still very weak. What kind of dangerous drink combination did he have at the party last night?!He reached blindly for the light control and pres
"You think it's wise to go in disguise huh?" Athena asked later that evening as they ate in one of the private dining rooms in the Villa."Yeah, for my mission to be possible, I need to go in disguise, that's the best I can think of. Also, it would suit everything perfectly." Damon replied, his eyes fixed on his laptop.Today would be the last day he'll have time to do whatever he pleases, once he gets back to the States, things would get busy for him. "And for how long do you plan to keep up with the disguise?" She asked, sipping her drink."For as long as it takes me to get what I want." He replied."And what do you want exactly?" Damon ignored the question and continued to tap on his laptop. He had no intention of bringing work to dinner but he was totally helpless. "I know you have trust issues but we're in this together and hiding some information from me won't help, I don't even know my role in this whole thing. I'm going to meet my family after so many years and I still don'
Taking in a deep quiet breath, she asked"What exactly did the Carney's family do to you? There's more to this whole vengeance stuff and I'm sure of it." She added and after a few seconds of Damon's gothic glare, he sighed. "You're right darling, there's more and it's that more that's making me bitter. I would have easily moved ahead but I could not, that family tainted my family's name, Mr. Carney rubbished my family name and destroyed it..." He paused and smiled at the shocked-looking woman."I don't have time for that family, especially after their last attempt on my life but after I found out that they were the reason for my lifelong suffering, my family ruination and death... I couldn't help it, I just wanted to ruin the man who was responsible for my family's perils." He added.Damon walked back to his seat and sat down without another word, telling Athena everything wasn't the problem, he'd tried to keep everything in him ever since he found out. In a real sense, he doesn't lik
"Yeah, that would be all, thank you," Damon said, ending the phone call. His focus went back to the laptop in front of him, he was trying to sort out some issues before they land in the United States."Hey boss, want some burger, the girls packed it for us," Electra asked, moving towards Damon with a tray of food and drinks."No, thank you. I'm busy at the moment." He replied curtly without breaking eye contact with his laptop screen."Okay, boss." She said moving towards Athena that was relaxing on the seat close to Damon."Work on the boss stuff, call me Damon, I told you to practice this since yesterday." Damon corrected, his eyes changing their direction to focus on Electra. "Sorry, boss... I mean sorry. All these are new to me, I'll try." She apologized dropping the food.Damon sighed, he knew she'd still repeat the mistake... He just hopes it won't be in front of his in-laws, it might cause a problem for him. Shaking his head lightly, he focused on his work again. "Hey girl,
Deep murmurs could be heard from different directions immediately after Damon and Athena stepped out of the car, hand in hand. They were followed shortly by a lawyer and then Electra who was checking out the huge church premises, the guests and journalists whose cameras and curious eyes were fixed on them.Damon looked around, inquisitive surprised eyes staring at him and his bride from all directions. He smirked in his mind, he knew the wedding would be a huge one, and there were different personalities coming to grace the wedding with their presence... It was expected, after all, it was the wedding of the most influential and powerful man's daughter. Today's drama would be worth it. He could see the looks many people were giving him, everyone knew him, he was the poor son-in-law of a powerful man. He's popular in this part of the country, videos used to be recorded of him on a daily basis getting embarrassed. He wondered if they miss humiliating him, he'd been gone for years... Ye
"Guards! Clear this, my bride will be here any minute and I do not want her to meet such a ridiculous situation." He ordered proudly and his guards swung into full action.Despite the confirmation of the journalists that Damon was there, Victor didn't listen. Coming back from the dead only exists in fiction and this is no fiction.Someone whispered something to Victor's ear and his eyes bulged in horror, without thinking twice, he began to walk towards two people standing hand in hand. Damon was aware of Victor coming towards them and without waiting for him to reach his place, he turned around with Athena. Victor immediately halted on his step, eyes wide in shock, mouth slightly opened, and unknowingly, he took a step back. What the hell is happening? How was he alive? The question ran through his mind as he stared at Damon."Hello, Victor..." Damon said walking up to him, his steps slow and mean, eyes burning with hatred as he remembered the last time he saw that face. That kick
