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
Damon stepped out of his room with the intention to see Doctor Alec and have a little discussion with him or maybe seek an advice or two, a frown appeared on his face when he saw Electra standing near the door. "What do you want Electra?" He grunted out the question and one can tell that he was in not in the mood to talk to anyone but Electra being Electra would not hear of it, she was here to talk to him and there was no way she's gonna leave because he made her feel unwelcomed. "Can I have a few minutes of your time, please?" She asked in a pleading voice and Damon knew immediately without a doubt that the woman was here in relation to a topic he doesn't wish to discuss."Let me guess, have you come to lecture me about my boring lifestyle too?" He asked and stared at the woman with indifference."Uhmmm, not really. I came here to ask if all is well with you and your fianceé, she's behaving oddly and it all started after she left your place a few hours ago. I thought her mood would
The crowd roared with excitement, the door to the training room swung and more people poured into the room. Soon, it was a house full. Damon looked around and he felt this little spark of happiness that he couldn't describe, he'd been feeling gloomy for a long time, the burden on his shoulders had chased away any form of happiness he could feel. He knew that happiness is temporary but it was all a cracking craziness when he could not feel it, even if it was just a little, it was scary how his life is turning but he was not complaining, he doesn't have a choice; complaining isn't a choice, he just have to deal with things as they come. "Okay, okay... All of you should quiet down, there's no way this fight would start if you keep shouting like some animals! I know we're all animals but we should all behave for now." Electra's voice rang in the air from the speaker. "You idiots! You all should behave or I'll send you out, don't forget the fact that I'll also indict you." She warned an
Athena jumped up excitedly and let out a scream as her eyes beheld the beautiful dusk ocean view. "I can't believe I'm doing this!" She said with a hoot as she sunk her feet into the sand."Neither can I," Damon muttered as he parked the power motorbike they'd come with to the beach. He still doesn't know why he'd agreed to come along with her to the beach... It was hard to believe that he even went with them to some noisy party. On Athena's suggestion, they'd left Trevor and Electra secretly and come here, the drive from the party to the beach wasn't long, Electra can easily track him down and it would be a matter of minutes before she comes down here, and lecture him on how important it was for him to stay alive, right after she'll scream Athena's ears down for taking him away from the party. It wasn't really Athena's push that brought him out of the party, it was the craving for some little solitude and the party is the nastiest place to get it. When Electra had suggested the
Athena took a deep breath, cleared her throat, and began, "When I left here, I got threats from the one who sent me to kill you because I didn't do my job well and um, I kinda promised the person to complete the job once I get back to you..." She paused when she heard the dark chuckle from the man. "Let me guess, did you bring me out here tonight to finish the job you couldn't complete the first time?" He asked, turning to face the woman with a grin.Athena's jaw dropped in pure surprise, her eyes popped out and she tried to say something but nothing came out of her mouth. She's in a deep state of shock because of whatever Damon had just said. Damon scanned the shocked-looking woman with a burning gaze that might have reduced her to ashes had he been able to really shoot lasers from his cold eyes. He doesn't care what made her look like some frozen codfish, he doesn't want to judge her but he could not help feeling angry, he still finds it hard to believe that she was still in cont
"Ok, so I want you to play dead or fake your death so I'll send pictures as pieces of evidence to those that sent me." She blurted and finally let out a wheezy breath. Damon looked at the woman in front of him and he knew immediately that he was dealing with a psycho.What the hell did she just say?!She's definitely a crazy one. The corner of Damon's mouth turned up in a smile, eyes fixed on the woman in front of him, the full moon had illuminated the sky and had provided a source of light to the environment, so he could see those oceanic eyes glittering. "What did you just say?" He asked, trying hard not to laugh because if he heard her right, then it was definitely an outlandish thing to do, a fucking crazy thing. "I told you, I know it might sound awkward but that was the second best option I could come up with." She muttered and Damon cocked his brow. "What was the first option?" He asked."Killing you for real." She replied with breathy laughter."Oh, that's cool... I'll lo
