(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
The huge door leading into the meeting halls swung open as Damon approached, the guards standing by each side of the door bowed down as he entered. Trevor looked at his boss, his mouth itching to ask him questions but looking at the way his boss was, he decided to keep quiet and observe everything. He wonders how everything would go but something in him told him that the situation was beyond tense. A heavily built man opened the door leading to Damon's office after he bowed. Entering his office, he glanced at the three people sitting but his glance didn't linger for long as he went straight to his seat before facing the people. Electra was already there and Trevor joined her in her standing position, however, Damon indicated that they should sit down and they did without hesitation. "Welcome, Sia, it's been a long time after that ugly departure." Damon began, his dark gaze going towards Sia who looked back at him."Damon, it's been long and you haven't changed much despite the su
"I'm not going against the code and I am sure you and I know why I'm not allowing you to go..." He paused and stood up before he said, "I'm not letting you go because you went against the code by bringing weapons." Immediately the words left Damon's mouth, Electra and Trevor brought out their guns pointing them toward the three people, and within an eye blink, the door opened and many more guns were pointed at the guests. The three people who had guns pointed at them had this shocked expression on their faces that Damon couldn't help but chuckle. "What... What sort of nonsense is this Damon?" Sia asked, her voice uneven and yet angry. "Guns down guys, don't take such serious actions, keep calm everyone, keep calm... Guns down, everyone." Damon said and all other guns went down except for Electra's whose gun was still pointing straight at Draco's head. Damon saw this and grinned, he wasn't expecting less reaction from Electra, the woman was beyond crazy about his safety, "Electra,
Damon let out a deep-throated laughter and said, "You made a big mistake, Draco, you really made a big mistake. This is my country and you can not come to my territory to make rules or create chaos without my permission. You played the wrong game and now that I won, I'll show you what it means to be a master." Sia's eyes bulged open when she realized what was going on, her heartbeat quickened and her legs turned jelly, turning to look at Draco, she asked in a dry whisper, "What the hell have you done, Draco?" Damon grinned and ordered, "Take them away, make sure you make them undergo a tight security check before you dump them in the dungeon." "You can't do this Damon, we've done nothing wrong, what's wrong with you?!" Sia asked, struggling with the guards that had held her captive."You're making a big mistake Damon Hector, you're making a very huge mistake!" Draco huffed and Damon only scoffed at him. "Instead of bragging, why don't you tell your step-sister here your plans to ha
Damon sprinted crazily towards the healthcare wing of the Villa, his mind reeling in different directions, his heart was thumping violently against his chest and it was almost like he was running out of breath because of the speed he was using to run and the fear of what had happened to his mother. Immediately he left the office, he was directed to the hospital, he didn't care to find out what was the matter, all he knew was the fact that his mother was in danger and he wanted to be there by her side. As he neared the hospital wing, he was pointed to the room his mother was admitted to and he was rushing there only to be stopped by Doctor Alec who was coming out of the room. He wanted to shove the doctor away and see his mother but the man was stubbornly standing in the way, he looked the doctor straight in the eyes and ordered, "Move... Right now."Doctor Alec didn't budge, instead, he said, "We need to talk, Damon." Damon looked at him in irritation, "I don't have anything to dis
"Boss..." Electra called and Damon looked in her direction. He cocked his brow seeing the confusion and restlessness on her face. "I have something important to tell you, please, I can't hold it anymore, I've held it for too long." She blurted out hurriedly and Damon sighed.What exactly was going on?What bothers Electra so much? Damon disengaged from the hug and gave Athena his handkerchief to clean her face. He focused on Electra and he could say that for all the time he had been with and known Electra, he'd never seen her so nervous like that before, she was looking restless and everything scared. "What's wrong with you Electra? You're looking like shit girl." Trevor inquired worriedly. It could be seen that he was worried for Electra, in a way, he was scared for Electra, whatever was troubling Electra so much must definitely be wrong. Did she go against the rules?Did she betray the family? Trevor gave Electra a questionable look but the young woman just smiled at him... A
"I'm all ears doctor Alec, what do you wish to talk about?" Damon asked as he relaxed on his seat, his eyes on Doctor Alec who was sitting opposite him. Everyone was present in the office, Trevor was standing at the far corner of the room, his arms folded across his chest while Athena was sitting with Electra who was looking like shits. She was trying everything possible not to cry and thanks to Athena, she was keeping her emotions in check. Electra wasn't the type to lose control of herself, she'd always face her problems with boldness and courage, however, when it comes to Damon, she has no idea why she was losing herself. "First of all, I'd like to sincerely apologize to Electra for making her undergo such a serious emotional battle. It was her duty to tell you any information that might be of help to you but due to my fear, I made her swear not to tell you because I fear that you might not understand and also with the fact that I feel like I owe you an explanation for everything.
