[ AUTHOR POV ]Max kept drinking continuously. He could explain how he was feeling. He could not feel anything or know how to react. He felt his heart was burning from an invisible fire. He still couldn't believe his father would do something like that. Don was more powerful??. He could have at least stood by his best friend. They would have fought for Their lives together. He chuckled softly as tears flowed freely from his eyes. What would Damien think of him? A son of betrayal? Who knows he might think he was the one who actually betrayed him. "Oh, I didn't expect to see you here , Max Santiago". Aiden smirk taking a seat beside max."What's wrong?". He said , as soon as he noticed his teary eyes.Max yanks Aiden's hands off his body. Aggressive as always! "Mind your business". Max replied angrily."You can think of me as a friend for tonight".

Attacking from the back? ". Liam smirk, playing with his pistol." Oh the Alpha and his little beta". Don laugh." Seriously, you two ?? Wanna fight me?? Do you have a death contract? ". Don asked." Yes. We just signed your death contract ". Aiden said, shooting at him.But Don heal immediately the bullet touches him."Seriously? Is that all you got ? Little beta" He called Aiden in a mocking way." We got more coming ". Liam smirkLiam groaned loudly as he turned into a wolf, the same as Aiden. They started fighting furiously. Liam for Don, Aiden for his men.Unexpectedly, Don's hands grew bigger while his body was normal.His hands?? Damien thought!.

It's been a long time since Crystal last visited her mother in the hospital. So she got off work earlier than usual. She bought some food on her way to see her mother.AT THE HOSPITAL.Crystal looked at her mother, feeling sad and devastated. The doctor had said she was improving."Mother, I'm sorry I didn't check up on you for the past few days. I'm really sorry, I bought you some food". Crystal raises her bag up.Even though she knew her mother couldn't eat them she still chose to buy it."You know mother, I met a guy at the stripper club. I don't seem to understand him at all, I don't understand my feelings either. Tho we had… ". She paused.How could she possibly tell her mother that they had shared a kiss, not once or twice but a few times? And yet she knows nothing but his name.All she knows is that he's rich, owns a big mansion and has a bodyguard named max.She doesn't know whether he's a mafia or a dangerous business man.Crystal narrated everything that has happened exclu
"My world is too hot for a girl like you, I'm fire. You will get burn". Damien searches Crystal's eye to see any hint of fear but none was seen."Then let me burn ". Damien's face was calm, his eyes dropped a bit.Everyone was always scared of him. Why isn't she scared even for a little while?. "Why?". He whispered.Crystal did not know what came over her . She had said those words without thinking. Those were just the words on her mind."I don't know". She replied honestly."How much do you earn per night?". Damien suddenly asked , changing the topic.Why is he asking me that now? Crystal wonder."$1000" "I will pay you $5000. Don't go to work tomorrow. Don't even go to the restaurant". Damien said."I will pick you up at 10 in the morning". He quickly kissed her forehead and left.Don't go to work?? Pick me at 10am?? To where? Crystal thought.Crystal stayed in the special room for a few more hours. If she had left immediately Damien went out. She was certain angel would thought,
Damien took out his phone and dialled a number."Meet me at our secret spot". ************************Max stood in front of Damien devastated with his head bow. "I will only ask you once. Did you do it?". Damien ask with Carlo beside him.Max fell to the ground." No apology is enough for what I have done. I deserve to die". Max said.He could not tell Damien his father had betrayed him. Even though Max knew the consequences of what he's doing right now. Damien hates lies and betray, he won't hesitate to kill Max's father. Max still loved his father and he just couldn't bear to lose him. How can he let the only person he knows as a parent die??.Damien angrily called out his sword. For the first time he felt pain, his heart hurt. Damien had high hopes for Max. Damien had been hoping he would deny all the accusations. He kept telling himself Don was lying against Max and Max would never do that but he was wrong .Damien held his sword tightly with anger and pain, he was ready to cut
He led her into the restaurant. Crystal looked at the expensive decorations everywhere. It smells so nice there.She noticed there was no one else except the two of them." He must have booked the whole restaurant ". She thought.A waiter leads them to a secluded table in the back which was specially decorated."Do you like it here?". Damien asked, referring to the restaurant."No. Are you kidding me ? I love it here". Crystal said dramatically."I love it , it's so amazing. Thanks mi Rey (my king)." Crystal giggles" You speak Spanish?". Damien asked surprisedly." Yes I do". He smile and gave her the menu" What would you like ?". He asked.Crystal almost screamed out loud. The price of those dishes can pay her house rent for two years."Don't look at the price, just order". Damien said, immediately he noticed her widened eyes. "Ha ha ha". Crystal laughed nervously."I think we should go somewhere else". "I already booked this place for us. Do you want the money to go to waste?".
[ CRYSTAL POV]"Tell me about yourself". He said to me,I did most of the talking while he just listened. After we finished eating, He took me to the shopping mall. Where I did tons of shopping. We spent at least 50,000$ on shoes, cloth, jewellery and lingerie which Damien himself had picked. He also got me a new phone. He was holding ten bags, five in each hand. While the staff took another ten to the car and I was holding two.As soon as we walked out of the door we were bombarded with flashlights. There were reporters outside with cameras and microphones."Mr Montenegro, who is this woman?". "Is she your girlfriend?". "How long have you been going out?". "Is she your wife?". "Tell us her name please". I quickly cover my face with the shopping bag and hide behind Damien. He noticed I wasn't comfortable and stood in front of me."No questions. As you all can see my little princess does not like you taking pictures of her. So if you would back off nicely or else". He glared a
Crystal still could not believe her eyes. How did he become like that in front of his nanny? He had never for once smiled . But today she witnessed his smile. Though it was very cute and he looked so adorable with a smile."His smile is definitely better than Liam's own". She thought. Wow who knew he could be a child in front of his nanny. They got into the limo, Damien started the car by pressing a button and it started moving.but she suddenly remembered he didn't even compliment the dress she had worn."Isn't it good?". Crystal wonders. Sadness was evident on her face. Damien stopped the car by pressing a button and looked at her. Before she knew what was happening his lips were against hers. It was a small, gentle touch but it awakened a huge inferno between them. His lips trail from her lips to her neck. The way he kissed her was something She had never experienced before. It was so sensual and electrifying that she felt the electricity all over her body, from her lips to he
Max's eyes widened in mock fear, "Oh, I'm shaking in my boots, Damien." But before he could continue, he nodded discreetly towards the door, "She's here, she's here." Damien whispered excitedly.His head swivelled, his eyes locking onto crystal as she made her way towards him. She looked stunning, her hair styled perfectly, her dress hugging her curves in all the right places. Damien's heart skipped a beat as she smiled at him, her eyes sparkling with amusement."Hey, sorry I'm late," she said, taking a seat in front of him. "Traffic was a nightmare."Damien took her hand, his fingers intertwining with hers. "You're worth waiting for," he said, his voice low and husky.Crystal rolled her eyes good-naturedly.Max snorted, "Yeah, save it. You're going to need all the charm you can get." Max whispered through the earpiece.Crystal's gaze swept across the restaurant, taking in the elegant decorations. The walls were adorned with intricate gold leaf patterns, and the tables were dressed in
"Oh Damien, you're here?" Amelia asked, her voice laced with surprise, as Damien and Crystal descended the stairs together, their faces aglow with a warm, conspiratorial smile.Damien, dashing in his rumpled overnight attire, took Amelia's hand, his eyes crinkling at the corners as he bestowed a gallant kiss on it. "Hello, ma'am, I came here to talk to Crystal last night," he explained, his deep voice dripping with charm.Amelia's eyes narrowed, her gaze darting suspiciously between her daughter and the stranger. "Since last night...?" she repeated, her tone incredulous.Crystal, her cheeks flushing a deep crimson, looked away, her voice barely above a whisper. "Oh my goodness, Mom..."Max, who had been observing the scene with a mixture of mischief and wariness, gasped in fake disbelief. "Mom, Crystal brought a man home last night, and we didn't even know about it?."Crystal gasped as she stared at her twin brother in shock. Her face turned an even brighter shade of red as she tried
“No one wants you here for dinner, fuckface. Aiden, come get your stupid mate. And yeah, thank you for ruin my fucking dinner and night”. Max groaned, slamming the door on Adrian’s face as he made his way back to the dinner table. “Get your mate and get out of here”. He said, facing aiden. “Max…”. “Get the fuck it now!”. “Do you realise I’m still here max?”. Amelia chipped in. “Mom, I really don’t want to see them right. If you know your mate is gonna come here. Why the fuck…”. He paused, running his hand through his hair. “You can’t just make assumptions max, Aiden isn’t the only person Adrian knows. I used to be his best friend too, he might be here for me”. Crystal added, getting up from her seat as she walked to the door.“Hi best friend”. Adrian smiled, immediately Crystal unlocked the door. “No one wants you here, dickface!”. She yelled, slamming the door right on his face. “Crystal, oh my goodness. Why is wrong with you two? That is not how you treat a guest!”. Amelia s
Max's expression remained stoic, his voice firm. "Yes, I forgive you. But that doesn't mean I want to be with you. As a matter of fact, I think we will be better off as friends”. Aiden's face fell, his eyes filling with tears once more. "Friends?" he whispered, his voice cracking with despair.“Please..”. “Stop begging me, aiden. I don’t think we are compatible, perhaps you should get going now”. Max said, trying to make his own feelings as he moved closer to the door. “Please don’t do this, I might as well just kill me. I don’t want to be your friend, Max”. “Get going aiden”. “M..”. “Now!”. Max snapped at him. Aiden's eyes flashed with desperation and guilt, his face twisted in a mix of emotions. He made a move to leave, but suddenly spun back around, his hands grasping for Max's neck. He pulled Max into a fierce kiss, his lips crushing against Max's.Max's expression remained stoic, his body tense and unyielding. He didn't respond to the kiss, but slowly melted into it as he
“Who is it?”. Max asked.“Aiden”. Max's eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched in a mix of surprise and wariness. "Aiden? What does he want?"Crystal's smile faltered, her eyes darting back to the door as if unsure what to do next. “I don’t know, you ask him”, she responded, stepping aside for Aiden to walk in. Aiden played with his fingers as he stared at Max nervously. “Hey”. He managed to speak. Max's expression remained guarded, his eyes fixed on Aiden with a mix of scepticism and caution. "Hey," he replied curtly, his voice firm but neutral.Aiden's eyes darted around the room, as if searching for something or someone. "I, uh, I was wondering if we could talk?" he asked, his voice laced with nervousness.Max raised an eyebrow, his gaze never leaving Aiden's face.“Of course, he would love to talk to you. Why don’t I walk you both to his room, huh?”. Crystal chipped in, grabbing her brother by his arm as she pulled him along. “Come on, aiden. Don’t be shy, don’t worry my mom already
“Max! Max! Calm down. I know you don’t wanna hurt him. Calm down please”. Crystal said, hurriedly pulling him into a hug as he broke down completely in her arms.“I tried so hard to please him. E..every decision I ever made was for him and Damien. And he.. he…”. Max's body shook with sobs, his fists clenched as he buried his face in Crystal's shoulder. Crystal held him tight, her own tears falling as she tried to comfort her brother. "Shh, Max, it's okay. I'm here for you. I'm here."The room was silent, the only sound was the heavy breathing of the three of them. Crystal's eyes never left Lucian's face, her gaze filled with a mixture of anger and sadness.“I’m glad I don’t have a father”. She whispered, staring directly at him. Lucian's face crumbled, shaking his head as he made to speak but stopped. Carlos walked closer to Lucian, tapping him gently on his shoulder. “Uncle, I think you should give them some space for now”. He whispered, giving him a light squeeze. Lucian nodded, h
"Let's end this once and for all." she whispered, her eyes blazing in anger.“There would be no need for that!”. Amelia yelled, appearing out of nowhere as she stood in front of her daughter, protectively. “You wanna know how your mother died?”. She asked, staring at Damien. “I will show you how”. Before he could say anything she grabbed his hand and they both disappeared. ****************Crystal paced anxiously around the huge parlour, everyone was sitting separately, Max standing beside his father, myla on the couch, Carlos and Rose standing beside each other, resting on the wall. It's been five hours and still Damien and Amelia are not back, they all were getting worried especially Crystal. She has been walking around the room for god knows how long wondering where her mother took Damien. She wasn’t even perfectly fine yet and Damien is literally to angry to think calmly. What if he does something to her mother?“Damien might be powerful but your mother isn’t weak either. He’
“It’s already so difficult to control myself around you, so stop being stubborn and do as I say or else I would not be responsible for any of my actions”. Suddenly, he released me, and I slumped against the wall, gasping for air. He turned and walked out of the room, leaving me shaken and confused. He was no different from what my mother had described. They were all monsters. END OF FLASHBACK. “That's where it all started,” Amelia said, her voice barely above a whisper. “That's how I met your father.” Crystal's eyebrows shot up in confusion. “Wait - that's it? You didn't even tell us how you had us.” Amelia sighed, her face clouding over. “To be honest, I'd rather not remember that part. “Look, I love you both more than you can ever imagine,” Amelia said, her voice cracking with emotion. “But the way you're brought into this world - it's not something I want to relive. I don't want to think about how much I trusted someone who betrayed me. And I don't want to think a
“I say it, you moan it?”. he said, trapping me with his legs as he pinned my hand above my head.“W-what are you doing? Let me go now”. I struggle against his grip.His lips brushed over the pulse in my neck, and my blood pounded under the gentle caress. He inhaled deeply and let out a satisfied moan, like he could smell the need in me.“Even though you haven't taken a bath yet, You smell so good". He whispered, and the next thing I knew, his tongue licked up the length of my neck, and I nearly screamed in pleasure."Aaah"."There you go.""What do you think you're doing?!"."We are going to play a game" He said, licking his lips. "A game called 'I'll say a name, and you moan it' "I was getting really nervous by this point, and was trying to wiggle away, but I was trapped.He moved his mouth to the base of my throat, and I could feel his lips brush my skin as he said.As he leaned in, his warm breath danced across my skin, making my heart race. 'Now... let's see how well you can moa
