"You broke the rules of the ethics by planning an attack on your adversary immediately after your leave from here and that's totally against the rules. You're lucky you're still alive, if I were him, I'll have you crippled already" One of the assassin leaders boomed, his eyes staring at Draco who was in chains along with Sia by his side."Exactly, he's guilty because Damon here has provided all the evidence needed. I won't stand for you because you're the most egoistic and foolish assassin leader I've ever met, you're just stubborn and silly to think that you can eat your cake and have it. Gentlemen and women in power, I think we should let Damon do what he wishes to do with him, he'd broken the rules and that's not welcomed in this association." Another added and Damon just sat there, looking at Draco who was looking lost, his body bleeding and some of his fingers missing.He'd taken out his anger on him last night and he still feels like he's not satisfied with the outcome, once th
"Mom... What are you doing... I mean how come you're here?" Damon stuttered out the question, his eyes fixed on the two women who were standing behind his Mom.If there was a gun, he'd have probably shot some sense into them for bringing his mother who was just recovering from her ailment into this gruesome scene.How the hell was his mother going to react?She was already looking odd… No... She was looking blank, just like him, he could not see the expression on his mother's face and that was very frustrating to him."Boss, I'm sorry, we couldn't stop her... She wanted to come but we didn't intend to bring her, we lost her along the...""Enough honey, you don't have to explain yourself to your husband, I'm sure he'll understand." Mrs. Hector said, cutting her daughter-in-law in. Damon looked towards Athena and made some sort of eye contact with her and she just nodded and agreed to keep quiet while the son and mother had their own time."What are you doing here Mom? You should not b
"Don't you dare talk back at me, you stupid woman, I should have killed you when..."The sound of a gun trigger was heard and ‘BANG!!!’ A shot was made. "Ahhhhhh!!!" A loud howl escaped Draco's mouth as the bullet of Damon's gun pierced through one of his thighs, and blood began to gush out of the hole. "What the... Ahhh, what is... What the hell have I done?!" Draco shouted in a stutter as the pain in his thigh became unbearable."When you're in my territory, learn to speak to a woman with high regard, you don't hang there and use your cursed stupid mouth to insult any woman here, you might have a different rule in your territory which you follow but as long as you're in mine, you have to go by the rules or you can risk running your mouth and getting bullet holes in your body," Damon said coldly to the man who was wriggling in chains because of the pain his left thigh was going through."I'm sorry, get a doctor... I might bleed to death!!!" Draco said in horror and pain while Damo
"Damon, I need a favor from you," Sia said aloud and Damon slowly turned to look at her before asking."What?""Who am I?" She asked and Damon furrowed his brow because of the question. He had no idea what Sia meant by who she was, how the hell was he supposed to know again? "I don't understand what you mean by that. What are you talking about and ain't you supposed to know about your identity?" He asked. Sia sighed and faced Damon squarely, "I know I am demanding for much, I'm not supposed to even ask you questions because of what I've done to you but I still wish to know my root, my identity... You mentioned General Leo being my father, what does that mean? Did you talk in the heat of the moment or what? What exactly were you insinuating?" She asked and Damon raised a knowing brow."Oh that, I thought you knew the general was your father, though he had no idea about it and Doctor Alec didn't know either... I myself got to know about it after the general's demise. I actually thoug
Two months later. "Hey, big bro!" An excited female called and Damon, who was walking towards the convoy waiting for him, halted and turned to see the incoming figure. Damon's smile broadened as he watched his younger sister rushing towards him, "You ain't coming along today sweetie, not a chance." Damon declared and Artemis grinned."Why can't I come along? The girls are coming along with you." Artemis whined and Damon just sighed, here he was again with his younger sister and her annoying pressing personality. "You can't come along because mom won't allow you, plus you're still very young and you have to go to school. Do I still need to tell you more reasons, sugar?" He asked and Artemis frowned. "Artemis, you should not delay your brother, come, I have made some delicious tacos for you, I'm sure you'll like it." Mrs. Hector called from afar and Artemis sighed in defeat."This is not fair." She whined and looked at Athena and Electra who were standing beside her brother."Bye si
THREE DAYS LATER (At the Carneys villa)"What the hell is happening?! How the hell is this happening?!!" Mr. Carney shouted, throwing the phone in his hand away. "Honey, you have to calm down, just take a deep breath, I'm sure we can do something about this, this is an old issue. I don't know how it arises but I'm sure we can sort it out." Mrs. Carney said, trying to calm her husband who was looking extremely infuriated. The televisions in the house were turned off because it seemed like every news channel was talking about the ugly turnout of the situation for the Carney family. "I don't understand, how?! How did an old burned-down issue come up suddenly? Just how? The media had taken it up and no matter who I called for help to take it down, they kept saying they're helpless, what the hell is wrong with everyone?" Mr. Carney asked and began to cough immediately after he finished."Here Daddy, have a glass of water, I'm sure everything will be alright, they'll just make bluster a
"Mr. Carney, are all the accusations leveled against you true? What do you have to say about this new development?" One of the journalists asked Mr. Carney who was coming out of his company. The guards immediately began to guide him and his wife towards the car, Celena and Ayden were following them closely and the journalist didn't spare them when it came to throwing questions at them. The family entered the car and it zoomed off. "I can get used to this," Athena said with a chuckle as she stared at the scenario from the window of her office."I'm glad you're having fun, wifey," Damon said and Athena turned to look at him with a smile.She never knew what he was planning but everything was beginning to make sense to her though not really much, she had questions she dearly wished to ask him but she had decided to keep mute, however, she knew she couldn't do it for long.Damon noticed the uneasy expression on Athena's face and asked, "What is going on in that shrewd mind of yours?"
"I was raped Damon, my innocence was taken away by... by...." She stuttered and burst into tears. Damon's gut tightened and his body tensed, "By who, baby? " He asked coldly, his voice deep and low. "By my own father." She said at last and Damon's chest contracted painfully. "What?!" Damon exclaimed in shock and Athena nodded with a sad smile. How was she supposed to put the whole thing without having to sound so graceless, without it sounding bizarre? Everything about her is weird and sour, nothing about her life is good, nothing at all. "Oh dear... I'm... Fuck!!!" Damon cursed angrily and palmed his face, he just couldn't believe this.He had heard stories about shits like this, who would have thought that his own wife was a victim of such absurdity."I'm... I'm so sorry Athena, I don't know what to say but I am truly sorry." Damon said in a sad voice as he turned to look at Athena who just smiled and nodded."It's been a long time but after that experience, things went from bad
