Damien 153.

I knew that I must thread carefully after everything had been revealed to me. I could not thank Michael enough for his great service he rendered to me. Now, I was sure of where I was going and what needed to be done.

I did not know for how long I sat in the study but the more I kept scrolling, more I was enthralled by the things that I read and the pictures that I saw. Names, security numbers, dates of births and deaths which came with a lot of names. Victims.

The ones that Isabella was worried about and the reason she was refusing to talk to me. While I understood her concerns about my involvement with Renaissance, her naive solution of me leaving the company was ridiculous. It was either she did not believe that I could transform Renaissance or she was afraid for me.

I took a long look at the various places of interest and the medical facilities where the secret experimental tablets were tested on anyone unfortunate to have come across Transcendence.

    Damien 154I was buried deep in papers and reports, truth hunting when a call came through the office land line. Absent mindedly, I picked it up."What does she want from me, and why is she looking for me?" Vito snapped at me.I did not understand why he thought we buddies and he could call me any time."Hello father," I said quietly. "How nice of you to check up on your only son," I sarcastically added."Do not get snarky with me, boy, why does your mother hunt me so?" He demanded."Well, for one reason you lied to her, cheated on her with another woman and brought the military police to our home, thereby ruining my childhood," I said to him as I leaned back unto the chair."I think it's time everybody got over that," Vito snarled. "And your mother pushed me into the arms of another woman because of her crazy attitude," Vito added.I was appalled by how unremorseful he was by the whole thing."And I guess that I should get over the fact that you almost killed my wife too," I told him

    ISABELLA 155.She made her way over to us after she coldly dismissed the man who was on the verge of tears. She sauntered slowly in her stylish dress and took her time to get to our table. I felt a little bit uneasy by her presence.I was curious as to what was on her mind because I myself had a mouthful for her but now that I was just getting to know just how dangerous she was, I was not interested in any altercation. If she was going to come for anyone, it should Natalia. That was her rival not me.However, I knew that she had a vengeful grudge against me after what had happened with Robert. Camilla had loved Robert so much but it was an unrequited love because Robert had been dating me back then.It had been soul crushing when I found out that he was involved with Camilla. After the horrible revelation, everything that had happened, everything that followed had been crazy.It was not hard to see that she blamed me for the suicide of Robert."Mind if I jo

    Damien 156."I think that it's about time you and I spoke, Mr. Moretti," Emilio said as she stood directly in front of me."How long have you been waiting for me?" I asked him."Not long," He replied with a nonchalant shrug.Emilio Montenegro was the estranged father of my wife and also the one that caused the strained relationship between Isabella and I. He believed that my wife deserved to know the truth about the company that I worked for. I on the other hand, fully disagree because of the imminent danger it could potentially bring to her."I am surprised it took you this long to seek me out," I told him."Trust me, I wish I had come sooner," He replied."Where do you want to do this? We could talk in my car," I suggested."I am not interested in getting in that contraption that you call a vehicle," Emilio replied with disdain in his voice. "There is a coffee shop nearby, walk with me," He said and turned away from him.I surpresed an angry sigh and follow

    Isabella 157.I remembered the weight of Damien's secrets that had pressed down on me like a suffocating blanket, smothering me in a web of lies and deceit. As the wife of a renowned CEO, I was no stranger to the dark underbelly of corporate intrigue. But nothing could have prepared me for the truth that lay hidden beneath the polished veneer of the Renaissance.I sat alone in our spacious living room, bathed in the soft glow of lamplight, the silence of the night wrapping around me like a comforting embrace. But despite the tranquility of my surroundings, my mind was anything but at peace.My thoughts drifted back to Damien, his handsome face etched with determination as he embarked on his crusade to cleanse the Renaissance of its corruption.

    Damien 158For the first time in weeks, my wife and I slept together in a room. It was blissful and then we got naked. It had been spontaneous and slow. Isabella took her time to explore my body with her soft small hands. I wanted to go crazy with lust.I had missed the feel and touch of her body on mine and deep down I hoped that she missed me the same way that I missed her. She caressed my chest and slowly trailed her hands down my stomach. She viciously tore away the clothes I had on me as we had a feel of one another.When this was happening, we were in the kitchen. I was down to my boxers before I realized that we were still in the kitchen. However, Isabella did not seem to care about our current location. Her hands were already on my waist band.I could not even tell how we got to the living room but we somehow groped our way to the couch.I did not relent myself, I pulled of her soft shirt and silky bra. I gently fondled one of her breast while I used

    Damien 159.I left Isabella's home with a secret security detail. They were a special type of protectors and they were experts at being discreet when doing their job. I hired them so they could secretly keep a tab on Isabella.The drive to the office was grim and I was always lost in thought as I heard a hunk from an angry driver before I realized that I was on the road.Last night with Isabella was magical. We did it again this morning. Then again in the shower. I had reluctantly left for work as I was beginning to get aroused again.I ruminated on the unforgettable talk I had with Isabella's father last night at the coffee shop. He knew too much about Renaissance than I did and I even suspected that he knew even more than Camilla herself.I recalled Emilio walking out of the coffee shop, his ominous warning echoed in my mind. "Protect my daughter with your life or I will take it,“The gravity of his words had hit me like a freight train, leaving me paraly

    Isabella 160.Last night had been magical. I still felt happily sore from the abundant love he showered on me in the living room. I almost did not let him get to work this morning because I had missed so much of his touch and warmth.We had risen together and had our bath together. Under the hot shower, we made love after we had a morning quickie. I just could not get enough of this man and it scared me. Although the last night had been filled with good sex, I had trouble sleeping because of the situation we were currently in.In the dark last night, I had laid in bed next to Damien, his steady breathing a comforting rhythm in the darkness, I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that gnawed at my insides.Despite the warmth of his embrace, despite the intimacy we had shared just moments ago, I felt a cold dread creeping into my heart, suffocating me with its icy grip.His assurance had done nothing to ease my fears and I also suspected that he was still hiding something from me.

    Damien My gaze never wavered from Vito's face as I listened to my arch nemesis. The gravity of the situation got more and more deadlier as the night wore on. The papers were still in Vito's hand as I kept the phone to my hear.My father had an inquisitive look on his face as he watched me closely. The line went dead and I put the phone back into my pocket. I collected the the contract and without breaking eye contact, slowly tore it up right in front of him.Vito's eyes widened in shock and utter disbelief. "What the fuck are you doing?" He yelled maniacally as he knelt on the floor trying in vain to join the piece of paper together in a futile attempt.For the first time in my life, I saw him for what he was. An empty barrel of a man, a pathetic and sorry excuse for a husband to my mother and a fucking dead beat piece of shit of a father. I felt nothing but contempt and disgust as I watched him scrambled across the whole floor."Do you know what you have done?!" He yelled at me as h

    Isabella As Ava was pushed into the room, I felt a rush of relief flood through me at the sight of her, mingled with a fresh wave of fear for our uncertain future. She stumbled slightly, her eyes wide with shock and confusion, but when she saw me, her expression softened with a mixture of relief and concern."Isabella, darling, are you alright?" she asked, her voice trembling with emotion as she hurried to my side.I reached out to her, my hands shaking as I clutched hers tightly, drawing strength from her presence despite the terror that still gripped me. "I'm scared, Ava," I admitted, my voice barely above a whisper. "I don't know what's going to happen to us."Ava's eyes filled with tears as she wrapped her arms around me, holding me close in a comforting embrace. "We'll get through this together, sweetheart," she said, her voice choked with emotion. "I won't let anything happen to you, I promise."But before we could say another word, the door swung open once again, and Camilla e

Where was she keeping Isabella and Ava? What did she want from me? And most importantly, how could I save them from whatever danger they were in?The minutes ticked by agonizingly slow, the silence of the room weighing heavily on my shoulders. I felt a surge of frustration building within me, the urge to take action and do something, anything, to rescue my wife and mother from the clutches of their captors.Finally, the sound of my phone buzzing broke the silence, and I quickly grabbed it, my heart pounding in my chest. It was Camilla, her name flashing on the screen, and I answered it without hesitation."Damien," her voice came through the line, smooth and composed as ever. "I trust you've had some time to think about our situation."I clenched my jaw, my grip on the phone tightening with barely contained anger. "W

    Damien As I strode through the familiar corridors of the office building, my mind raced with thoughts and plans. Natalia's brazen attempts to undermine me only fueled my determination. I had come too far to let her or anyone else stand in my way.But it wasn't just about me anymore. My family – Isabella, Ava, our unborn child – they were my driving force. I would do whatever it took to protect them, to ensure their safety and security. And that meant taking down anyone who dared to threaten what was mine.And now, as I sat there, surrounded by the trappings of power, I couldn't help but feel a surge of determination.

    Isabella Chopping vegetables for the lasagna, I couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort wash over me. Cooking had always been a soothing activity for me, a way to channel my thoughts and focus on something tangible amidst the chaos of life.Ava, my ever-supportive mother-in-law, stood beside me, offering gentle guidance as we prepared dinner for Damien. "Now, Isabella, remember to slice the vegetables thinly for the lasagna layers," she instructed, her voice warm and reassuring.I nodded, taking her advice to heart as I carefully wielded the knife. "Like this?" I asked, holding up a perfectly sliced zucchini for her inspection.Ava smiled approvingly. "Just like that, dear. You're a natural," she praised, her encouragement filling me with a sense of pride.As we worked side by side, Ava shared her secrets for creating the perfect steak marinade, imparting her culinary wisdom with the patience of a seasoned chef.

    Damien I was watchful during the conference meeting. I took my time to really look at the board members sitting at the table to see if I could see a member of the Founder's Association but none were seated at this conference. Even Rose St Dumas was not present. Maybe she was preparing her cronies of corrupt businessmen and women for the final show down.Camilla Valdez was also not present but Natalia was. I could not tell what was going on in her head as she gazed at me. If her mother was one of them, did that not make her automatically part of tht fold? Was I over reaching? If the plan with the detective worked, it meant that a lot of people will inevitably get hurt. "What is the profit margin for today?" I asked as I got down to business. "Eight percent since last year," Natalia said in a professional manner. "That's lower than last two years," I said with a frown. "That was due to the Al Vegas controversy," One of the board members said. "You mean the embezzlement," I replied

    Damien Returning to the office after the recent turmoil felt like stepping into a minefield, each step fraught with the risk of detonating hidden dangers lurking beneath the surface. As I walked through the familiar halls of Renaissance, I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that gripped me like a vice, a constant reminder of the precarious balancing act I was now forced to perform.Every interaction, every word spoken, had to be carefully calculated and measured, lest I inadvertently reveal the truth lurking beneath the facade of normalcy I presented to the world. I couldn't afford to let slip even the slightest hint of my alliance with Michael, for fear of the consequences it could bring crashing down upon us both.My colleagues greeted me with smiles and nods as I made my way to my office, their cheerful demeanor a stark contrast to the turmoil raging within me. Behind their friendly facades, I couldn't help but wonder who among them could be trusted, and who might be secretly wo
