Adeline woke up and looked around the room to see if Damien was still there, but he was gone. The bed was neatly made. That's funny. He didn't seem like the type of guy who kept things clean and organized. Adeline was amused.

She found a small note on her nightstand.

"Thanks for last night. Don't worry. I won't tell everyone we slept together. Don't miss your school bus. Smiley face." the note with surprisingly neat handwriting said. This guy was full of surprises.

At school, she found Noriko and Mandy hanging by the lockers. Mandy was waving her hands back and forth as if having the most riveting conversation of her life. What was so interesting, Adeline thought.

"Adeline, hey! We were looking for you," Mandy chirped.

"What's up?" Adeline narrowed her eyes.

"Are you going to Alison Gomez's party this weekend? I heard it was going to be huge," Noriko asked.

    "Are we going to your house?" Molly asked Damien."Nope. We are going to Robbie's place since you "for real" want to learn math. I figured we could focus better when Robbie's around," Damien smirked."Whatever, hey so...what's with you and that new girl Adeline?" Molly looked at him curiously.Damien narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean. Nothing is up with us. She is just a girl in my class. We aren't even friends. Besides, she hates me."Molly looked at him intently as Damien's facial expression changed when she mentioned Adeline. His eyes turned gentle.He must really like her,she thought irritably.

Before moving to this hellhole, she used to do silly girly things like try on makeup, spritz on perfume, and try on ridiculous ugly prom dresses with her friends.

    "You just turned eighteen, right?"Robbie narrowed his eyes at Damien. "You know that, asshole. Why do you ask?" he said.Damien grinned. Robbie was going to get the shock of his life when he finds out where he was about to take him. Damien remembered his promise to Sally when he said he'd go to the strip joint and keep an out for her. He figured, why not take Robbie with him? He had never seen anything like it."You'll see," Damien smiled mysteriously."I don't like the look on your face. I'm gonna regret this, aren't I?" Robbie winced.Damien laughed and got in his car, followed by Robbie.The strip club wasn't extremely strict and didn't serve alcohol before midnight, so people can go in if they were eighteen years old. Robbie was suspicious of Damien the entire car ride there, but he didn't protest. Damien is his best friend, and he trusted him.Once they arrived, Robbie was floored as he saw exotic nude dancers dancing on the sta

    Adeline saw Damien at school, and her chest tightened. He looked like someone brutally beat him. He had bruises on his face and a cut at the corner of his lips. What did he get himself into now? She tried to ignore the feeling of concern, but it was hard, so she walked away from him. Out of sight, out of mind, she thought.She saw the guys from the Irish Brotherhood hanging out by the water fountain. She paused as she heard Damien's name."Did you hear what happened yesterday? Damien Sky got his ass kicked by some Armenian guys. It serves him right! Fucking asshole," one of the guys chuckled."That's great, but why did they beat him?" his friend asked."Well, he was supposedly trying to defend his stripper girlfriend and messed with t

    Damien stopped kissing Keira and looked around. Adeline was gone out of sight. Maybe he shouldn't have kissed Keira to make her jealous. When it came to Adeline, he lost all control and acted irrationally. Rick had moved from his spot and was now sitting on a couch with Noriko, who appeared to be very drunk. He was trying to make her drink water.Damien strode towards them and grabbed Ricky by his collar, making Noriko gasp."The fuck, dude!" Ricky exclaimed."What the hell were you thinking, kissing Adeline?" Damien hissed."What's it to you? It's not like you guys are together anyway," Ricky moved his hand aside."H...hey, le..let go of Ricky. Addie likes you more anyway," Noriko s

He was so sexy and so beautiful.I love him, I love him, I love him! She kept repeating it in her mind. Could he hear her? Did he know how much she loved him?"Addie," Damien let out a low growl and kissed her. He was licking and sucking her tongue and it felt good.She couldn't imagine doing this with anyone else. She just wanted to do everything with him. She gripped his shirt and pulled it over his head then rubbed her hands all over his chest and abs. She started to kiss and lick his chest then his neck.

    Damien felt like his whole world crashed on his head. He didn't want to tell Addie the truth: that she got drunk, took ecstasy, danced naked for half the school, and he'd taken her to this hotel room to get her sober.She was the one who came on to him. He knew Adeline loved him even though she's looking at him with pure hatred now. And he wished all the love he felt for her in his heart would turn to hate because he loved her so much, and he just knew he's going to be stupid for her just like his dad was for his mother.Damien knew this was his consequence for being weak to temptation.Systema had taught him never to give in to temptation. That's why he didn't indulge in alcohol, and he was trying to stop smoking. He didn't do drugs, either. And he only had sex with women who didn't matter to him. Now he'd had sex with a woman he loved, and it wa

    Adeline felt sick to her stomach. The drug must not have worn off yet. She decided to spend her entire day locked in her room, staring at the wall. She ignored her nagging mother and annoying stepbrother and stepfather, even when they yelled and banged on her door. Today, they don't exist.She looked up the after-effects of ecstasy online and figured out that was why she felt sick. She basically used up a year's worth of dopamine in one night. No wonder she was miserable.She couldn't stop thinking about Damien. Her mind showed her vague flashes of Damien making love to her. She kept remembering him being gentle and loving. Only she felt detached from her body, and it was as if she was watching from the ceiling.No, there was no way he was gentle. He raped her, right? she thought. But

    Damien walked into his office and squinted his eyes. Something was off. No one dared to enter his office and mess with his things because he always found out. But someone did dare and that someone was in a heap of trouble. He smirked as he saw a tiny handprint on his desk that most likely belonged to the culprit. "Mila? Get in here, right now!" he yelled. He leaned back in his chair and smiled when he heard the pitter-patter of small feet approaching. "Da, papa?" a small voice spoke from the entrance. He stared at the tiny version of Adeline in front of him. She had just turned five. Mila had deep blue eyes like him and Adeline and thick brown hair. She wore a white cotton dress that Addie made for her that made her look like a princess. His little printsessa. "Did you touch the cookie jar on my desk?" he said and narrowed his eyes. Mila looked down on the floor with her hands behind her back. "No..."

    Damien observed Adeline's face. Was she scared? Upset? Angry? He couldn't tell as she was just staring at him without showing any kind of emotion. "Addie?" Damien called her, breaking her out of her trance. Adeline slowly turned toward Damien. "You dragged Tommy over here. All the way from Chicago?" Her voice shook. Damien nodded. "You asked me to bring him here, remember? So...um...happy birthday?" Tears streamed down her face. She bit her lower lips as if to stop herself from sobbing loudly. Damien was taken aback. Maybe he shouldn't have brought him over. It was upsetting her more, and that was the last thing he wanted. He didn't want to make her cry on her birthday. "Malen'kaya ptitsa, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you," Damien said. Tommy finally spoke. He looked at Adeline straight into her eyes. "Addie, baby. Look what this monster did to me! He beat me to a pulp then tortured me. Make him stop. I am

    Tommy wailed like a street cat as Damien broke his fourth finger. "Stop crying like a little bitch. I thought you were a cop. Aren't they supposed to be tough motherfuckers?" Damien said irritably. If he had to keep listening to Tommy's screaming, eventually, he'd become deaf. "Let me go, asshole. I told you I didn't do anything wrong. So what if I smacked her around a little? I was just disciplining her because I was too afraid to lose her," Tommy said. He could barely talk as he was gasping for breath. Damien grabbed the back of Tommy's head then slammed his face on the table in front of him. Tommy started coughing out blood. After he was done, he stared at the table with a horrified expression as two of his front teeth were now rested comfortably on top of it. "Wha...what did you do?" he managed to say between choking and coughing. "Looks like I rearranged your teeth a bit. But back to business. I don't appreciate you acting like it was oka

    Damien was in Chicago, watching and observing Tommy's movements. He ended up staying home with Adeline after that night as he woke up with a sick hangover. Stupid drug.... He flushed it all down the toilet. "I'm sorry for making you take it. I don't know what's wrong with me sometimes," Adeline had said. Damien wrapped his arms around her and kissed her hair. "I'm glad you did. Now we are even." "You don't have to go, Damien. Can't we just forget about Tommy? I don't even think about him anymore because he is dead to me," she whispered against his chest. Damien stroked her hair slowly. He knew Adeline didn't like the idea of hurting someone, even though that was someone who abused her constantly. She may want to forget all about it, but Damien couldn't. Not after the bruises, he left on her beautiful body. "I want him dead, Addie. I will bring him to you like you asked, but if you don't kill him, I will," Damien said.

    It didn't take Damien long to recover, just as Nancy predicted. He was back on his feet within a few weeks. He decided to go back to business. Robbie had been filling him in about everything that was going on. He even gave him regular updates on Tommy. "Do you want me to kidnap him and bring him to the warehouse?" Robbie asked. "No, I want to do this personally. Tommy is mine," Damien said. "But you haven't recovered fully yet," Robbie raised his eyebrows. "I am well enough to travel," Damien said dismissively. "If Addie found out you are about to take a long trip, she will kill you." Robbie laughed. Damien winced. He forgot about that. She had been taking care of him for the past few days, which consisted of constant scolding because he refused to stay in bed. "I'll make up an excuse." "Good luck with that," Robbie said. Later that day, Damien brought up the subject. "No." Damien groaned. He was afraid

    Damien tried not to collapse as long as he could. He didn't want to look weak in front of Adeline, but the pain became unbearable and he had lost too much blood. That bitch got him good. How did she learn how to twist a knife like that? Hopefully, she didn't hit any of his vital organs. He didn't want to die before he had the chance to kill Tommy. He lay on the ground with his eyes closed. He could hear Akiko screaming at Yuri to get the van ready, but he couldn't hear Adeline. Where was his wife? "A...Addie..." he managed to let the word out. It was starting to get difficult to breathe. Something soft touched his forehead. A hand, he realized as it was gently stroking his hair. "I'm here." Adeline's voice was soft and loving. He had always dreamed of her speaking to him that way. Maybe she was taking pity on him because he was hurt. Damien opened his eyes and saw her face. Her cheeks were wet, soaked with tears. Was she crying?

    Damien ran into the house as soon as they arrived. "Where is Addie?" he roared. Odette came running. "What's going on?" she asked frantically. "Adeline. Where is she?" he repeated. "Ms. Adeline was outside when her friend visited," Odette said. "Is everything okay, sir?" Shit. Shit, shit, shit. Alison was already here. Damien's eyes glowed with anger. If she put a scratch on her body, he'd cut her arms off. Damien walked toward the garden before answering. He saw one of his men, Luke, standing at the entrance. "Is my wife out there?" Damien tried to keep his cool. He realized Luke had no idea that Alison was dangerous as he didn't look alert. "Mrs. Sky and her friend went into the bedroom," Luke said. Why the hell didn't he follow Alison and Adeline? Damien decided to be angry at Luke later. But, first, he needed to go to the bedroom and handle Alison. He hoped it wasn't too late. He quickly ran

    Adeline was restless. She had been waiting for Damien for a few minutes now. She knew it hadn't been that long since he had left, but It felt like she had been waiting for an eternity. She went to her little library and tried to read a book but couldn't pay attention. She decided to sit in the garden instead. She stayed out for a few minutes and stood up to go back inside but stopped as she saw Odette walking towards her. "Ma'am, there is someone who wanted to see you," Odette said. "Who?" Adeline was surprised. How can she have visitors? It wasn't like she had a social life. Was it Robbie? Or Natasha? "A woman. She said she is an old friend from high school," she said. Adeline was even more confused. An old friend? "Did she say her name?" Adeline asked. "No. She wanted it to be a surprise. The guard is holding her at the gate for your own safety." Odette said, then handed her an iPad so she could look at the security f

    Damien stood in front of the burning building. The fire department was called, but most of the club was already consumed in flame. The club was a goner. "Did anyone get hurt?" Damien asked Akiko. His face was grim. He would lose a lot of money. It wasn't the end of the world, but it was still a waste of business. "Not that I know of. It seems that the dancers were warned ahead of time. That means someone did this intentionally," she said. "I see," Damien said. He turned to one of his men. "Pay off our insider at the police department and tell them to rule it out as an accident. I don't need police sniffing around this property. I want to find things out on my own," he said. Was Enzo behind this? he wondered. He was mad about how Damien took his knee out and decided to burn his own club down. No, Enzo was spineless. He was all talk and no play. He wouldn't do something drastic like this. Was it Alison? The thought occurred to him, but i
