"You're looking good, boss. I'm still afraid for your life but you're looking good." Trevor complimented as Damon stepped out of the elevator."Stop being such a negative rolling ball, no one is dying yet." Damon mused. "To make this date a safer date, I've asked the chefs not to serve any food that would require knives." He stated and Damon turned to look at him in stupefaction. "If Electra is here right now, she's gonna call you a big dummy, you're an assassin Trev and I'm sure you know that everything is a weapon for an assassin. Don't stress it Trev, everything will be alright." Damon assured him but the young man still doesn't look convinced."I don't know what you told Electra that made her accept this, it's still unbelievable, she's even helping the spitfire to dress up." Trevor marvel. "I can't believe you guys are calling her spitfire, her name is Athena... You..." He was cut in by the sound of the elevator opening, he looked towards the elevator and saw Athena and Electr
She took a deep breath, licked her lips, and savored the strawberry flavor before she asked, "What do you want from me, Damon?"Damon smirked, "You know what, Athena? I've been waiting to hear that question ever since we sat down here. Now let's drop the idea of this whole date and focus on the business at hand. Shall we? " He asked in a husky voice. "Yes, we shall. Though this sounds so weird, I'm willing to take chances as long as you're not gonna slit my throat, I need to stay alive for as long as I can." She disclosed and Damon couldn't help but chuckle. "You really are different, now will you tell me your story?" Damon asked and the woman sitting with a blank expression gave him a wry smile. "Who are you? I want to know who you are, apart from being my twin sister's husband... Who are you? I've scanned the internet but I can't find anything relating to you, apart from your many embarrassing videos, there was nothing more... You were painted as a pathetic live-in son-in-law-law
"You're indeed a fortunate man! Fuck!! You survived so many attempts on your life?!" Athena questioned in awe as Damon finished his narration. A deep throaty chuckle escaped Damon's mouth seeing the surprised look on the woman's face, he'd narrated his story to her, but it wasn't all; he had excluded the part that has to do with his family, he might tell her in the future but not yet, this wasn't the right time to tell her. "Yeah, I survived, lucky me but I don't think they'll be so lucky when it comes to them, they've run out of luck and I'm extremely sure of that." He muttered. "What evidence do you have against the family though? Whatever you have against them that made them fear you so much to such an extent that they allowed you to stay in the house must be something big. I know that family, I've spent twenty-three years of my life with them." She explained, her eyes peering deep into that of Damon's."I'll tell you everything, how about I hear some of your bitter stories? Wha
TWO MONTHS LATER. "Any information about the mission yet?" Damon asked as he tapped furiously on the laptop in front of him."Not yet boss but according to some rumors...""Enough Electra, I don't want rumors!! I want facts!!! That's what I want, I don't want any assumptions or tales, just let me know what needs to be done, we don't have time for this, people go missing every now and then. Police complaints are being registered but nothing, no action is being taken, they're been looked down upon because they're poor, those rich bastards think they can do and undo... I want to prove them wrong and for that to be attainable, I need a fucking proof and I shall get it, I have to get it." He thundered furiously and refocused his attention back on the laptop.Electra watched her boss tapping furiously on the poor laptops, it would be a matter of time before he bang or probably fling the poor device away due to his fierce anger right now. It had taken her every ounce of pleading to keep him
"You're going back to the United States?! That's extremely dangerous boss." Electra exclaimed, looking at the man sitting. "I'm still a married man, remember and there's no way I'm gonna get married when I haven't divorced the first one, that's illegal," Damon said calmly, his eyes focused on the newspaper he was reading.He was in no disposition to deal with Electra now, he had so much to think, so much to do and he was a bit happy that one of his plans was finally making a little headway.There were different ways to go against the Carneys but none was as good and pleasurable as marrying Athena. Using their own blood to destroy them was his hit plan and he'll slam them hard with it, they won't see what's coming, even if by chance or luck they happen to see it, they would not be able to avert it. "He did have a point, Electra. There's no way he would be able to get married to Spitfire without divorcing her sister. His wife might even take him to court for that and I'm sure that fro
A slow satisfied smile spread across Damon's face as he dropped the file he was studying, the Carneys Empire was growing rapidly over the years, it had somehow made its way to the top ten. There are family businesses in the United States that are doing awesomely well and the Carneys is among the businesses. He's still a bit confused about how to kick off his plans once he grants Celena the divorce she'd always wanted. She'll definitely be surprised regarding his survival but that wasn't the main point, he'd pretend like nothing of the sort even happened. He'd fulfill her wish and once he was done with her, he would start his plans.Two months ago, he was clueless about what to do. He wanted revenge against his number one enemy but he didn't know how to go about it. Then Athena entered his life and the idea of buying her shares to join his own popped into his head but it wasn't really a promising plan because her shares would not give him any sort of power considering the way she'd
"What do you do for pleasure?" Athena asked Damon who was focused on his laptop. It was a beautiful afternoon and they were both sitting comfortably in the big garden. Damon came here for some relaxation, to receive some fresh air, and relish some old memories he once had with the general. He'd truly missed the General, though he doesn't acknowledge the fact every time, deep down, he missed him terribly. General Leo was a father figure to him, he never spent much time with his father because of the unfortunate circumstances that surrounded his childhood. Though they didn't start on a good note, he'd trained him to be what he is now, back then, it was like pure torturer but now, he's benefiting greatly from all his teachings, things are still formidable but with time, he's sure that everything will be alright... Everything just needs time. "Damon, I'm asking you a question. Why are you being such a snub anyway?" The irritated Athena asked and Damon let out a low breathy sigh."I'm
"Hey new buddy, wanna go to the party with me tonight? It would be fun!" Athena asked the man whose eyes were focused on the laptop that was in front of him. Damon wanted to burst into rips or maybe shout, perhaps the woman would let him be. It was totally a bad idea to accept being her friend. Bad, bad, and extremely terrible idea. He calmed himself, putting on the best smile he could summon, and looked up at the woman who was smiling from ear to ear. How in the name of the Lord was she able to be so happy?! "I'm sorry Athena but as you can see, I'm extremely busy today, maybe some other times. How do you see that?" He asked but the woman gave him a blank look. "Why do you choose to live such a boring life anyway? You're always too serious, doing one thing or the other? Sweetheart, you only live once you know? Learn to live, don't let life live you without you living life." She detailed as she waited for answers. Damon's jaw tightened, "My life isn't boring darling, I'm not com
