Celena gritted her teeth and asked again, "What do you two want, and why choose today of all days to appear back in the country after years of disappearance? What do you two fucking want from us?" No one answered, they just stared at her like some kids watching a clown perform.Victor comes to his bride's aid, "You know we rule this country, there's nothing you two will do that would harm us, the earlier you told us what you want, the better it would be for you and us. We can all forget about the ugly past and move ahead with our life and for that, I'm making you an offer and this time I'll add an extra five million dollars." Victor said and Celena gave her a surprised look. "What are you talking about, Victor? What offer are you talking about?" Celena asked in surprise. "I am offering them twenty million dollars to go away from our lives, they should leave and never think of coming back. The money should be able to set them up for good, they can live the life they want without the
"Oh, no darling. I came here for two things." He announced grabbing the attention of Celena Victor."Huh?" Celena whispered in a daze. "You heard me right. Once you're done signing those papers, I'm getting married again. I thought it best I move ahead like you." Damon replied with sarcasm.Celena and Victor exchange glances and begin to laugh. "Oh Lord, which woman in her right senses would want to marry a pathetic poor man like you? Who's your bride Damon and where is she?" Celena asked, still laughing. Athena cursed inwardly, interlocking her arm with Damon's, "Me sister, I'm his bride and I'm standing right here beside him, where I belong." She said proudly and Celena and Victor's smile froze. Damon ravished the shocked expression on the face of Celena, she'd always had the ability to conceal her expression but right now, she could not, she was practically in a state of shock. "What's wrong little sis, are you jealous that I'm gonna have your man?" Athena teased chuckling and
"Tatiana! How can you say such a despicable thing from your mouth?! Do you wish me dead, when did you become so cold-hearted?" Mrs. Carney asked in awe.Athena rolled her eyes, "It's surprising that you people have no idea that you turned me into whatever I am today. You guys ruined me for your precious princess here because you thought she was the best." Athena said with a bitter giggle, her head flooding with memories of the past. When her mother heard what she said, she began to cry more loudly. Damon sighed softly, this family and drama... Mrs. Carney is doing all this because there are cameras everywhere. She's playing the emotional mother who just found her long-lost daughter. Gawd! That family is just impossible! She began to sob again, "I'm your mother!" She said aloud, trying to reach her. "A big mistake on your path. Now stop with the silly drama or I'll start shouting aloud too accusing you of all the things you've done to me. All the trauma I've been through because o
"TATIANA'S WEDDING SHALL NOT HAPPEN." Mr. Carney declared, his eyes furious and filled with hatred as he stared at Damon. "MY WEDDING SHALL TAKE PLACE OR THINGS WILL GO WRONG." Athena asserted, her eyes boring into that of her father's."What has come over you?!" Celena asked, moving to face her sister squarely, anger burning every part of her. "I don't understand your questions, darling. Since when do you care about what has come over me? Since when do you care, Celena because as long as I remember, you never cared about my existence, so why would you care now?!" Athena fired angrily, her arm still interlocked with Damon's. "Oh Lord! Are you hearing yourself speak? Why would you think we don't care about what you do with your life? Do you have the slightest idea about what Mom and Dad went through after you left?!" Celena asked angrily."Are you hearing yourself lie? I don't care what anyone says about my choice but I'd like all of you to know that Damon is my choice and he'll alw
Mr. Carney looked at the eyes scrutinizing them with curiosity from afar and sighed. It's best if he ends this now, delaying would only damage his reputation and his reputation means everything to him. He doesn't want a stain in his name because he had plans regarding the state and for the plan to succeed, he'll need a clean chit. Nothing should stain his white. He'd sacrifice a lot, kill, and do all ungodly things to get to where he is today. He won't allow a pile of rubbish from nowhere and his delusional daughter to ruin everything for him. "I have nothing against you coming back, you are always welcome to stay baby but that thing beside you won't come with you. You're my daughter and you have an equal right just like Celena but you won't come back with that trash by your side, he won't step into my home again." Mr. Carney declared and Athena just scoffed. Damon was getting tired of this unnecessary drama, he didn't come here to be involved in so much drama. With a little sigh,
The situation in the Carney family Villa was a very tense one, everyone sat down quietly waiting for the unwelcomed newlyweds to come home. The atmosphere reeks of fear, anger, and regret. The four people sitting in the sitting room were in deep thoughts on how to handle the present problem that had come into their lives because they knew that if nothing was done about it, the problem would become a gigantic cataclysm. Damon is a catastrophe and his new wife is a disruption and the Carneys have no space in their life for both of them. "Mom, we should not have allowed that wedding, I just hope we don't repent for this drastic decision we made today," Celena said, palming her face in frustration."Baby, you need to calm down about this, we'll take care of it," Victor assured his worried-looking wife.Celena looked up and gave him a venomous look, "Don't just tell me to calm down okay, you're the whole reason this is happening. First, your silly boys made the mistake of not ending him
"Dad, you don't know Damon. I know him and I know he's up to something. His coming back along with Tatiana is not just ordinary and did you see the kind of authority she'd talked to us? That's not her talking but Damon, Damon might look calm and all but he can be an evil jerk if he's messed with. We can't just give them a free hand or ignore them...""Celena, you're thinking too deep into this, there's nothing Damon can do to us. Do you know who we are? We're the elites of this country, the world knows us... They can't do anything, I'm sure of it." Victor said, cutting Celena in. "Just shut up Victor, I know Damon, not you. None of you here knows Damon, he's a crook, I won't be enjoying some God-forsaken honeymoon and watching him destroy this family. I will stay here and that's final." She said with a note of finality and sat down again. "Oh God! What's wrong with you?!" Victor asked angrily, looking at his wife in awe."Nothing is wrong with me, I'm just trying to protect my famil
It was almost dusk, a taxi halted in front of the Carneys Villa. "Well, nothing has changed much around here," Athena said with a loud yawn as she stepped out of the taxi holding some filled shopping bags. "You sure, wifey? It's been a long time since you left here, baby." Damon asked as he handed some wards of dollars to the taxi driver who immediately zoomed away. "Oh please, as long as the inhabitants haven't changed, I don't see the villa changing." She replies honestly and Damon chuckles."Let me help you with that." Damon offered, stretching his hands towards his new bride. "Nah, I'm good, you can help Electra, she's holding more bags than me." Athena refused, gesturing towards Electra whose eagle eyes were observing her new environment. An assassin's blood would never leave Electra, Athena smiled and called, "Electra, Damon wishes to help you with holding some bags." Electra looked towards the two and smiled, "I'm fine, don't worry bos..."Damon cleared his throat to cut
