"I'm sorry about my family's misbehavior, they tend to forget their place sometimes." Athena apologized immediately as they stepped into their room. "You don't have to apologize, they did what they had to, stop apologizing when you're not at fault," Damon said, heading towards Electra who was sitting at the far end of the room, her whole attention seemed to be immersed in the device."Anything, Electra?" Damon asked, taking a seat beside the woman."Not yet boss, however, whatever attacked the villa had no intention of hurting anyone, it was like some kind of warning," Electra explained, complicating the issue more. Domon looked at the laptop Electra was working on, it showed pictures of the Villa and some little damage done by the attackers. None of the attackers were caught because it was a very brief situation... According to the reports he got, the attackers only threw some little bombs into the Villa and escaped. "Any report about the attackers? I'm sure they're in Italy, they
"Are you really leaving, Athena?" Mrs. Carney asked as Athena, Damon, and Electra stepped out of the elevator with bags in their hands."Good morning, sir and ma'am." Damon greeted, turning towards his in-laws who ignored his greetings totally. Electra didn't bother greeting anyone because she knew her greetings would definitely get the same cold shoulders as that of her boss. She just stood beside her boss to watch what would happen before they would depart. Athena took a deep breath and greeted her parents, "Good morning, Mom and Dad, I wasn't joking when I announced that I'll be traveling." "Why do you have to travel? You are finally having a life here, everything has finally fallen into place, why would you want to leave everything and go to some unknown place?" Her mother asked. "Look Mom, I'm not in the mood for this fake emotional display now, I'm going because it's important for me to leave, I'm not even leaving forever, I would be back, I have an unfinished business to ha
Damon stepped out of the car with a blank expression as he faced his Villa, a small smile appeared on his face when he saw his mother coming towards him with a bright smile on her face. "Son, oh I'm so happy to see you in real." She said with a smile as she hugged her son to the extent that tears began to fall from her eyes. "Oh Damon, I can't believe you're really here at long last..." She said, sniffing in her tears. Damon smiled and held his mother tight, his body tensed when he felt some liquid on his shoulders. "Don't cry Mom, I'm here now and I'm fine, don't worry, everything will be alright," Damon assured his mother, withdrawing from the hug to look at her. He smiled and used his thumb to clean the tears that were streaming down his mother's face. "Don't cry, shhh, I'm here now." He added with a smile and her mother smiled, taking her son's hand, she kissed it and looked at him. "You… You remind me so much of your father, I can't believe I'm seeing you again..." She sai
"What could possibly be happening? I just don't understand this, we destroyed that medicine, I destroyed the formula, oh Lord!!" Athena exclaimed as she dropped to the chair, palming her face. "Calm down Athena, we will figure this out, we always do, just keep your nerves down, you're stressing yourself," Electra implied, her hand patting Athena's shoulder. "You don't understand how I feel Electra, my creations are being used to kill people and only God knows how much has been killed. I'm restless, I wish I knew who was doing this, I'll make it my life mission to extinct that idiot. He's using the drugs wrongly, it's not fair." She whined and signed.Damon watched Athena fret, he was expecting the reaction from her and hence, he wasn't surprised when she nearly passed out upon seeing the bodies of the dead men. Lunch had been good with his mother, she was doing perfectly well and the girls in the Villa were doing a great job in making her feel loved. He looked towards Trevor whose
Damon paced up and down in his room, he had no idea what Sia's sudden appearance now meant. Deep down, he'd been expecting her, he knew she'd make a come but now... Why now and why that silly attack on his Villa? Sia is a deadly assassin, if she wanted to have her revenge, she'd have done something very tragic and dangerous, carrying out such a meager attack was so much unlike her. Deep down, he can't help but think that there was more to this whole situation than met in the eyes. His guts tightened at the slight thought of her, he felt that there was something bigger coming and his instincts were never wrong. "You seem to be worried, boss." A robotic voice rang in the room bringing the attention of Damon to his wristwatch."I'm fine, AI, have you gotten the information I requested for?" He asked, taking a seat with a sigh. "Yes boss, I've got it, I don't know about those people that followed her, Sia was in Italy and I'm still tracking her and from all these analyses I've gotten,
Damon stood in his office as he watched the assassins carrying out different activities on the large open training ground not too far from his office window. A low sigh escaped his mouth as he watched, they were all looking happy and healthy, he was happy with himself for them but deep down he was as worried as anything in the world, he couldn't believe that a peaceful environment and life would be disrupted again all because of one silly woman. Bing.. Bing.. Bing. Damon's watch began to beep red light and he looked at it before he asked, "What's wrong this time around?" "I got the information you seek, should I disclose it to you or do you prefer to look at it?" The robotic voice asked and Damon's senses immediately went on an alert."Tell me." He ordered, feeling somewhat apprehensive. He had no idea why he was feeling so much anxiety when he should handle everything with a calm mind, but this was his family and any threat to them made him wanna lose his mind and track of reason
(A week later)"We have visitors, boss," Electra announced to Damon who was busy talking with his mother. Damon turned to look at Electra and a quick eye communication passed between them. Damon turned to his mother and said, "I need to go now, Mom, I have a business to tend to, we'll talk later in the evening, ma'am." He said with a smile and Mrs. Hector looked at him suspiciously. "Is everything okay, son?" His mother asked, looking at him skeptically, she looked towards Electra who immediately gave her a smile that looked forced. Damon gave her the warmest smile and said, "Don't worry about me Mom, everything is perfectly fine, you should rest once you take your afternoon medicine, the girls...""Don't worry, I'll take care of her, just go." Athena interrupted him and when he looked at her, she gave him a warm smile."Won't you be needed there, darling?" Her mother-in-law asked her and she just shrugged."Don't worry Mom, she can stay with you, if we need her, we'll definitely
Damon looked at the silent Doctor Alec who seems to have gone on a vow of silence, with a cocked brow, he added asked, "What is the wrong doctor, Alec, is everything alright with you?" Doctor Alec, who seems to be in a daze, immediately snapped out of it, "Damon, I don't know how you will fight this battle ahead of you but I'm pretty sure that if you put your whole self in it, everything would be alright." He said, palming his face.Doctor Alec's reply only confused Damon the more and he couldn't help but give Doctor Alec a confused look, "What are you talking about, doctor Alec, you just pause your explanation only to jump into another one, what are you talking about, everything isn't making a suitable sense, whatever you just said seems like some crazy jigsaw and I need you to do an explanation that would put those crazy jigsaws together." Damon complained. He was already getting frustrated by the whole thing and it wasn't getting funny, doctor Alec was confusing him and he hates
