We all made mistakes and the life is always about a second chance because we have just one life.
-Damien
DAMIEN POV
Her petite figure was trembling. Her eyes were closed as she was continuously murmuring something.
If she is so worried about her daughter then why like a slut is she behind me.
I never meant to slap her that day but I couldn't stop myself. I was beyond enraged when she said the word that he used for me. So I lost it. Family has always been a sensitive topic to me.
Though it looked like she was not lying but I could have not been sure.
I always remember the women I spent my night with but I couldn't remember her face.
I don't know why I agreed to come with her in the first place and most importantly I wiped her tears. I shouldn't have done that.
But there is something in me that wants me to meet that girl. But I won't ever tell her that.
"What's the name of that bastard?", I asked her.
The word bastard left a bitter taste on my mouth. What if she was my daughter?
No, this is impossible. Even the demons hate me. They can't bless me with an angel.
"Please, don't call her a bastard. She is my daughter. ", her angelic voice defended her daughter. I choked the chuckle that was threatening to leave my throat.
"Sure slut.", I said sarcastically.
She didn't answer the simple question I asked and just continued fidgeting with the hem of dress. She was scared but why didn't her fear sit well with me?
"I asked you a question, slut.", I raised my voice.
She flinched as I raised my voice. I smirked. Scared much! I could see the beads of sweat forming on her forehead. But seeing her shaking soon made guilt enter my body.
Guilt
Such a foreign feeling. I never felt it before.
"Amber.", she said in a small voice.
Amber, nice name. Quite opposite to her mother's name. As much as she cries the name Rain suits her actually. But again its not like I gave her a reason to smile.
Suddenly the ringer of her phone rang. I peeked to see the caller was someone named Sam. Who was he, her boyfriend or worst husband. Just thinking about it something ignited in my body. This thought of her being with someone else was disturbing.
I don't know why I was even thinking about such things. This wan was messing with my head. I need to get done with it quickly.
She picked up the phone.
"Hello.", she said softly.
Whatever the man said to her made her smile. Jesus! Her smile is so beautiful. She had never smiled in front of me, well not like I gave her a reason but still someone else specially a man making her smile made knots tying in my stomach. I was having this feeling.
But why was I feeling like that in the first place?
"Thank you and take care.", she said through the phone as she sighed.
"Why the hell are you smiling, slut?", I asked her in an accusing tone.
"Wasn't your daughter fighting with death or your boyfriend made you forget all about it?", I asked sarcastically.
"Sorry.", she muttered. Her face fell again. A part of me felt bad. Her smile really melted a part of my cold heart.
Before I could again ask her why was she smiling the hospital came in view. I swiftly parked the car as both of us got out.
Rain took hurried steps on her clumsy feet.
I was actually worried that she would twist her ankle. Wait, why was I worried? Calm it down Damien.
A DNA test and then everything will be proved and then I would humiliate her and then we will both part on our own ways. I was never planning if sleeping with her. I do many bad things but raping woman isn't one. I may not have morals and be savage but still.
I followed her behind. Recognition filled people's eyes as they parted way for me. Yes I love the people when they fear me.
On the way Rain stopped in front of a young doctor. They talked in hushed tone as I reached them.
"Ah, Mr. Black please follow me for the DNA test.", the man said politely. But the fear was clear in his eyes. Good he knew who I was. I gave him a curt nod and followed him. While Rain went in the opposite direction.
I was waiting patiently for the reports to come. Though I knew the result but still.
The doctor whose name I don't care to know about came out with the reports.
"Congratulations sir, your DNA matches with that of Ms. Amber."
Time stopped. Being shocked should have been an under statement.
I snatched the paper from his hand this can't be possible. I looked through the reports once, twice and thrice.
"Are you sure?", I asked him in a serious tone.
"Yes sir, I am hundred percent sure."
That means that Amber was my daughter and all this while I called my own daughter bastard. How shameful of me and the woman I called slut and physically abused was really pregnant with my child. I rubbed my temples. Damn me. What kind of freaking idiot was I?
I got out of his cabin. I needed some air. At that same moment my phone rang. It was one of my personal bodyguards whom I told I was going to the hospital.
"What?", I barked. Bad timing buddy.
"Sir, paparazzi have reached the hospital.", he said fearfully. Damn those paparazzi.
"Stop them at the gate. Don't let them come in.", I stated and cut the phone not waiting for his reply.
I looked at the doctor coming out of his cabin.
"Sir, the girl doesn't have much time. So today evening after running a few tests can we perform the operation?", the doctor asked.
Hell yes! I would give everything to my daughter.
"Yes, but before it I want to her. How old is she?", I asked the doctor. I couldn't contain my excitement. I have a daughter, seriously a daughter.
"She is three and a half year old sir.", he answered
So I have lost three and a half years with her. But no problem, I would make up for it.
"Take me to her.", I ordered the doctor. The doctor nodded his head and I followed him.
Soon I was standing in front of the ICU. I peeked through the transparent glass circle to see my beautiful daughter lying on the bed and her mother holding her hand and saying something to her.
I opened the door and walked inside. Both of their heads whipped in my direction. Now as I take a closer look at my daughter, she looked so much like me. She got the same grey eyes. Her features sharp yet angelic just like mother's and she resembled me. Any fool could get it that she was my daughter.
I looked at the woman who carried my daughter for nine months. I should have been their with her in her those days. I looked at her now flat stomach which ones should have been round. My heart swelled thinking about it.
I slowly moved near the bed trying not to scare anyone of them.
"Hello.", I tried to say as softly as I could. I was directly looking at Amber waiting for her response but instead of saying anything to me she shifted closer to her mother as Rain protectively wrapped her arm around her tiny body.
This act of her angered me. My own daughter was not suppose to be scared of me. She was to jump in my arms. Aren't girls, daddy's princess?
As I moved closer to them I noticed the more closer I got to them, the closer Amber got to her mom and ultimately she was sitting on her lap.
I sighed.
Okay, I agree that I am intimidating but I don't want my daughter to be scared of me.
I sat on the bed facing the girls who were sitting on the chair. I sighed and ran my hand through my hair.
"I said hello.", I repeated myself much slowly and softly. If it should have been someone else then that person should have been six feet under the ground by now. But for them I would repeat the same thing hundred of times.
Amber looked at her mother. As if expecting her to speak something. I frowned why was she not saying anything herself.
"She is mute.", Rain answered my unasked question.
I felt a bit bad that she would never call me dad. But at least I am blessed with a daughter. I looked at Amber as she was continuously stealing glances at me while she tightly hugged her mother.
"Well that all right if she can't introduce herself then I would myself. My name is Damien Black.", I told her as I placed my hand out for her for a handshake.
But she didn't try to shake my hand so I decided to take her hand and teach her how to shake hands. After all she was three years old and maybe she didn't know how to shake hands. Yes that should be the case.
But as soon as I took her hand, she immediately pulled her hand back just like a reflex action. She then hid her face in her mother's chest.
"Sshhh Amber, its okay momma is here. Its okay.", Rain cooed to her daughter as she patted her back.
"I am sorry. She is scared of strangers. She doesn't trust easily.", Rain explained while looking down. Not once has Rain looked up in my eyes since we sat in the car.
Great I must have scared her. I sighed. Before I could ask her anything she continued.
"Will you give Amber your bone marrow, I mean for the operation?", she asked hopefully.
I nodded my head. Their was no reason why I would not give her my bone marrow. She sighed as if a big burden has left her shoulder. I was glad my daughter got a good mother and not a slut who didn't care about her child. This reminds me I have to apologise to her for calling her a slut. This thought of mine shocked me. Me, Damien Black apologising. I have just been with them for twenty minutes and I am already whipped. I slowly shook my head.
Before I could say anything else the door opened and a man around my age came in. As soon as both the girls saw the man their face glowed up.
"Sam.", Rain beamed. So this is Sam. My fist clenched and my jaw tightened. He winked at Rain and picked up Amber and without any issue Amber got in his arms as he kissed her cheeks and then kissed the forehead of Rain.
Jealousy coursed through me. How dare he! My mind was making plans of the ways to kill him. Why were they not comfortable with me?
I looked at Amber who was giggling in his arms. "So how is my cupcake feeling?", that boy Sam asked my daughter. She gave him a thumbs up, indicating she was okay. Then he started tickling her stomach but my Rain stopped him and took Amber back in her arms.
"She deserves rest.", Rain said to Sam. Sam pouted after listening that to which Rain chuckled.
"Same goes for you doll. You have not slept from yesterday. You know your body is weak. You need to rest. I will take care of cupcake.", Sam explained.
How dare he called Rain, doll.
Well I agree Rain did need rest but letting Amber stay with Sam didn't sit well with me.
"I will take care of her.", I said while glaring at Sam.
It was then he noticed my presence. He audibly gulped but still maintained his confident stance. Quite a kid.
"Damien Black.", Sam said in acknowledgement. Before I could say anything the door opened and the same doctor came in.
"Sir, its time for the tests."
I will hide you from the world so that when the moon shines I can worship you. - DamienDAMIEN POVI opened my eyes to find myself in the hospital bed. I looked around the room but I saw no one. I ringed the buzzer next to me and soon a nurse came in."Ye-es Sir?", the nurse asked with panic evident in her eyes. Maybe she didn't expect me to wake up so early.It has started to annoy me."How long was I out?", I directly asked her."For about twenty eight hours.", the nurse whispered."How is Amber?", I asked her."The operation went successful. She will be fine soon.", the nurse told me.
A rejection doesn't kill you it makes you stronger.-RainRAIN POVI jumped in Karl's arm as soon as he entered inside the room. God he was finally here. His body was warm as I collided my cold body against his warm one.But he was not as warm as Damien. My eyes widened at that thought.Why was I thinking like that?"Karl.... ", I started but I pulled back by someone. I didn't need to look back to find out he was Damien.God why is he the way he is? I felt his grip tightened around my waist and I shall be truthful that it hurt. I started trashing but he didn't even bulge. What does he eats, cement and bricks?"Damien you are hurting me.", I cried and it was then that he came out of his trance. He loosen his hold on my waist but never let go. I looked in front to see Karl shaking like a leaf.
My tears don't make me weak they just show how strong am I to let my emotions our and display it to the world. -RainRAIN POVIt's been two weeks since Karl broke up from me. I will be truthful about it and still hurts. I thought he was stronger then that. It has also been two weeks since I last saw the face of Damien Black. He is gone for some business work. For now life is peaceful.Amber is also recovering rapidly and she had shown great signs of improvement. Everything is getting on track and I just hope that Damien would leave us.Buy I some how know he won't.I sighed as I ran my hand through my hair. Men can be so difficult at times.I felt someone tapping my hand and it was then I lifted my glaze to see Amber pouting and wanting her momma's atten
It's always difficult to make a new start but a smile can make it better.-RainRAIN POVIt's been one month since Amber has been in the hospital and today she is going to be discharged. But the bad part is that I won't be going back to my home rather we are going to Damien's place. All of Amber and my stuff has already been transferred to Damien's house.I looked at my daughter to see her jumping on the bed. She is way to excited to go back home but she doesn't know the twist."Sit down baby or you are going to fall.", I said to Amber as I pulled her down, making her sit. She gave me pout and I chuckled at her cuteness.I looked behind me to see Nana entering the room. She looked paler than usual and I very well know the reason. Her daughter and grand daughter were moving out with a dangerous man.
I am a Beast. I live in the dark, I hunt in the dark and I always want to stay in the dark.-DamienDAMIEN POVI looked back to see Dante standing on the door. Why can't on Earth I can spend some quality time with Amber?"What's wrong?", I hissed."Boss all the unde-erbosses are wait-ting for you in the study.", Dante stammered. Freaking pup!"Go back I will be there in a while.", I told him. Dante gave me a curt nod before running off.I felt someone tapping my cheek. I looked ahead to see Amber was softly patting my cheek. I sighed."Come let me show you your room before I go for a meeting.", I said to Rain.She nodded her head and got up. I picked up Amber in my arms and luckily this time she didn't protest. She let me carry her and I couldn't be more glad.
Try to look the world from someone else perception and you will see how different is this world.-RainRAIN POVI looked at Damien to see him nearing the bed. The bed looked to small in his comparison. I have truly never seen a man this big. He sat on the edge of the bed as his large hands went to stroke Amber's cheek."Wake up princess.", Damien said softly as removed the curtain of Amber's hair from her face. He whispered so softly as if he feared to scare her."Wake up Amber.", he murmured softly but Amber didn't even move. I felt like chuckling at that moment but I kept my mouth shut.A frown etched on his forehead as he found that his efforts were going to vain. Poor Damien!"She is a heavy sleeper. Try using some force. I assure you she won't break.", I told him. God it was so difficult to keep my laug
It is in me what I conceal and those feelings that never reveal.-RainRAIN POVI walked in the park with Amber. It was evening time and suspiciously the park looked empty. I frowned but I didn't pay much attention to it as we walked deeper in the park.Soon we came to a stop near a lake. The scenery was breath taking. The water was blue and crystal clear. There were trees surrounding the lake. Birds have flocked on the trees and we're chirping.I looked down to see my daughter looking at everything with awe. Her grey eyes were bright and lively. She let go of my finger as she moved forward."Do you like it baby?", I asked Amber and she nodded her head.She turned around in my direction and pointed to the ball. I nodded my head as we started to play c
Nothing stands above the family.-DamienDAMIEN POVI looked around myself to find my most reliable four men standing with their head hung low. This raged me even more.One work, I handed them to do one easy thing and they couldn't do that. For god's sake what should I do of them.Dante, David, Antony and Pear, all stood there without uttering a word. I looked at my watch to see that it was already 1:30 am. But sleep didn't seem coming for me. Well it wasn't unusual. At times I doubt I have insomnia but deep within I know the reason of why don't I sleep."Speak you fools.", I hissed while grinding my teeth."Boss we can't find Piper's location. It is as if he has vanished. No CCTV footage of him can be found. We have our best man investigating this matter.", Pear stated while wiping the swea
Third Person POVDamien swirled the Bertoux Brandy in his hand as he sat in the bar of his house. He looked at the liquid swirling just like his life was.He has lost everything. All his purpose and most importantly his life.He threw the goblet as he say it shatter into pieces. He started picking up the pieces while crushing them in his palm to feel the pain but nothing.He felt nothing."Ahhh..."He screamed as he ran his bloodied hand through his hair.He wanted to do something but what. He didn't know that."Brother."He heard a voice from the back as he turned around and glared at Dominic. If it should have been someone else then then should have fled but not Dominic.He knew his brother needed him. He knew he has to be there for his brother before he does something reckless ju
I have moved far away from hell and heaven. Today I am at peace, away from the chaos and you know what I love it.-RainDamien POVI rushed out of the door. My heart was beating like a wild animal trying to escape my chest.I raced to the backyard to see indeed Rain laid there covered in blood. I made my way to her as I kneeled down and placed her head on my lap."Rain!"I called in desperation. I took her right wrist and felt her pulse. It was there.Faint but there."Take out the car.", I barked the order as I picked her up.As I went back to the front door a car was ready. I got inside the back seat with Rain in my arms."Call the nearest hospital to prepare a bed.", I said to the guard who sat on the passenger seat.I looked at her. Her eyes
All I need is you. Nothing more and nothing less.-DamienDamien POVI got up from the bed untangling myself from Rain. She was sleeping peacefully."Amber?"I heard her voice as her hands started searching for someone on the now vacant side of the bed.I placed a pillow there as she cuddled with it. I picked up my boxers and wore it.I looked at the clock. It read 9:30 a.m. I sighed as I made my way to the bathroom to take do my business and take a bath.I turned the tap of the shower on as cold water droplets made contact with my skin. The water was freezing cold but I didn't feel like changing the temperature.The events of last night played in my mind. It was a beautiful night. Just like the first one.But there was a difference. That night was filled with
My mind is full of negative thoughts like darkness embossed with fear and do I find peace in it, I will say yes because this is what I have become; a perfect yours in an utterly peaceful existence.-RainRain POVI looked ahead of me to see an ocean of trees. It was beautiful. But I also knew that beauty comes with a cost.I looked around of me and realized I had never been here before. I looked up at the sky to see the sun was setting. I needed to find my way out of here before it gets dark. I thought to myself. I took a deep breath and entered the forest. The trees were forming a canopy making it difficult to see the light.But I kept on pushing my legs forward. No noise could be heard in the forest. It was way too c
You say don't worry about me and this makes me worry most about you. I want to go with you wherever you go because I know you aren't capable of walking alone.-RainRain POV"Who eats pickles and peanut butter?", Sam shrieked dramatically.I looked at him and rolled my eyes. He was being way to dramatic. It is normal when you are pregnant."Oh Sam you don't know. Once I ate pancakes with tomato ketchup.", nana stated.Sam made a disgusted face as I giggled. It was so much fun annoying him. But I really liked this combo of peanut butter and pickles. Not quite sure about pancakes with tomato ketchup but still can try it.Pregnancy can make you do weird things. I took another bite of the cucumber pickle coated with peanut butter."Gross doll!", Sa
I am no angel but if you will ask for death from me then maybe I give it to you because I am not that cold hearted.-DamienDamien POVThe plan was set. There was no way they could make out of it, alive."Brother I think you should go and meet Rain once before leaving. She is really torn.", Dominic suggested.I simply nodded my head. I could feel Rain's ache because I was feeling the same. Not just for Amy but also for Rain herself.I left the basement with all responsibilities on Dominic. I made my way up the stairs to Amber's room because I know she will be there.I knocked the door but no voice came from inside. The door was open so I opened the door to see my angel coiled between Amber's clothes.Breathing in her scent."Rain.", I called softly.Bu
I can't loose you because if I lose you then I loose everything.-RainRain POVWe entered the house.It was quiet.No movement.No helpers. No guards stationed outside.Only Damien's most trusted men Dante, Pear, David and Antony stood there.I was still digesting everything. I didn't know how to react.I looked at the coffee table to see something red kept there.I moved closer to see it was Coco whose brown fur has turned matte red.I tried touching him but I couldn't build up the courage.My baby! I thought to myself.But I remembered that we humans are cruelest of all creatures.But still who does this to a puppy?"Once Amber asked me how he is able to understa
Life is a gamble that we play; sometime in the name of love they say-RainDamien POVThe lights seeped through the curtains. I groaned as I turned around. I didn't feel like waking up. I was tired.The Rosa's next move was taking a troll on me.I had a meeting at 1:30 that went on till 5 in the morning. Like hell I would feel like waking up.Over the top my brother decided to pay me a visit. He is tad bit annoying and always get on my nerves and is a big pervert.I turned around to look at the clock mounted on the wall. It read 11 a.m.He must me asleep right now.Rain and Amy must have woken up a long time ago. I decided to get up and quickly get dressed.Once I took a bath, did my business and put on a tee and sweatpants I went downstairs.Am
I don't love you for what you are. I love you for how you are because what you are can change tomorrow but how you are cannot change in a day. -RainRain POVMarcus fell on the floor with a thud. I shot him.Not once, not twice but thrice.I looked at the gun in my hand as I threw it away. I went to Marcus as I turned his body over to see blood oozing out from his body from three places."Marcus!"I called but to no avail. He was indeed dead and I did it.I looked at my hand to see it was coated with blood. I am a murderer. Tears fell down from eyes at that thought. Mom and dad should have been so disappointed.I heard banging from the other side. I knew it was Amber but I didn't have the courage to open
