Damien saw the disbelief look on Lily's face. He couldn't blame her, it's abnormal for a psycho to have or get connections to this time of villa.

It was given to him by the old man in the hospital. The old man virtually put Damien in charge of his villa and to head the organization.

Lily couldn't believe this, but she had to. She stared at Damien disbelievingly. It was obvious, he had stolen the keys. What if they were caught ? What if Mrs Elisa Turner came back?

"Where did you get this key from Damien, how did you get to know about this exquisite house in your state, answer me!!" She literally screamed. She was in a confused state.

He understood where her worries and concerns were coming from. He knew she didn't want another issue happening and he understood that.

He couldn't find it in him to fully open up to her, she will have to be patient , when the right time comes she would know.

"Aye! I met an old man in the hospital, he gave me this key. He told me when I get out of the hospital I should come here, that's why we are here, Lily," he said.

"He gave me his number and other informations I need to get into this house, it's nothing much," Damien continued

Lily was confused. Damien is a psycho, how could he remember the address and the exact details of the house, even the taxi that brought them here. 

"Where did you steal these keys from?" She asked Damien. Damien was taken aback by the question. 

"I didn't steal it," that was the only thing he could come up with for now.

"Yeah sure you didn't, just tell me let's return it without being caught here,"She said as she turned to leave expecting Damien to follow her.

He quickly made up something.

"I'm getting better Lily, my sickness is healing," those were the words she wanted to hear. She was excited upon hearing that.

"The old man I met, was a rich and industrious man this Villa belonged to him," 

That was partially true, this was just one out of thousands of villas all over the world.

Lily had to bring herself to believe it. Hearing Damien was recovering made her very happy and excited. She was thrilled.

She could remember how she felt desperate heading that Damien was a psycho, but now she felt only relief.

"Lily, please no one else should know about this. Mrs Elisa Turner must know about the state of my health, or else she would finish the work she had started!" Damien begged Lily.

He knew the consequences of letting his true state of mind, that he is not a psycho. He knew that in a nick of time, they'll come after him.

They were in the huge mansion now. Lily could only gape at the interior of the house, the house looks more perfect on the inside than outside.

Damien had gone to bring a glass of water for Lily, brought medications from his pocket and urged her to sit down, because she was just agaped by the house structure. He gave her the drugs and she took them.

He just stared at her, this is just getting harder he thought. Replacing the items where he took them from he went back to the sitting room.

"Damien," Lily started as she walked towards him. She took slow steps.

Damien looked at her quizzically, with an eyebrow raised.

"I promise, no one would know about what you told me out there," She said.

She reaches out her hand to touch his face, she finally touches it and Damien holds it there.

The feeling of her skin on his face was so eccentric and mind blowing. He felt sparks that he had never felt before.

All he wanted to do was to grab her and kiss the he out of bed enticing lips. He slapped himself inwardly as he put her hands back down.

It wasn't the time.

"I'll recover your scars," Damien said instead of replying to her directly.

Lily stared at him, eyes wide as in surprise.

His sickness was on now, she thought. That was the only reasonable explanation to what he was saying. 

But he looked real, so real and raw. She was torn between believing it was real or just a period of sickness.

Damien knew she didn't believe him, her face showed it all. 

"What do you mean by that Damien, how would you cover up my scars?" Lily was forced to ask.

This wasn't the first time he was mentioning covering up her scars, she didn't understand.

"Take off your clothes,"

What!! She thought. From this exquisite Mansion, to Damien sickness healing, to covering her scars, not to take off her clothes.

Could things get worse?

    The tray fell out of Damien's hands and the whole content on it shattered to the floor as Walter pulled the trigger. "Ah!!!" Lily screamed and covered her head in fear. She expected to be dead by now and have blood gushing out of her body but she is fine. The men were stunned by the attempt but some who still had interest in Lily sighed, they really wanted to have a taste of her. The bullet actually hit one of Walter's men, he killed him to show that he is not here for jokes and that it takes him nothing to kill anyone. Lily's head was still lowered, she was shivering and raised up her head, she looked at where he shot and her eyes widened to see the man dead on the floor with blood coming out of his corpse. A cry escaped Lily's lips but she held in. Damien nervously picked up the glass pieces from the floor, he put them back in the tray and stood up, he turned to leave. "Wait" Walter stopped him and his eyes widened. 'Does he know about me?Has he discovered my true identity?H
