It's been three years of her disappearance, three years of his therapy and three years of Vivian's annoying presence in his life.

Damien stood on the balcony of his and Cara's matrimonial room, he had a glass of vodka on his left hand and his right hand jammed in the pocket of his dress pants.

A cool sound pierced through the room and he fished for his phone, when he found it, a frown appeared on his handsome face when he saw the caller's name.

"What do you want," the coldness in his voice was so prominent that the caller felt it.

"Is that how you greet a brother uh?" Rafael scoffed ignoring the coldness in his tone and possibly, his face.

"If you have nothing to do, go hang out with your girlfriend and leave me alone," Damien said blandly. Rafael had been trying to get McKenzie, Cara's friend to be his girlfriend but the fiery woman won't pay not even the slightest attention to him, she even threatened to get him crippled if he comes near her again.

    Vivian's lips quivered as she spoke, "Eric.".The man grinned with a dangerous look in his eyes. Vivian gulped, cold shivers ran down her spine."How did you get in here?" She gasped nervously. The grin on his face gradually changed into a smirk, a menacing smirk. "You don't want to see me?" He replied her question with another question, he strolled towards her in a lazy manner. Vivian slowly backed away in fear."It's... it's not like that, the mansion has a tight security, no one could enter without the guards knowing," she explained fear visible in her eyes."Well I am here so that means, this mansion's security isn't as tight as you say," he leaned into her ear whispering. His hot breath sent cold shivers down her spine once again, not in a bad kind of way but a horny kind.Eric noticed the little blush on her cheeks and raised a brow, "don't tell me you haven't had sex since you started pursing Damien.""What do you think?" She retorted scornfully, "he won't even touch me, he is

    "Let go of my girlfriend boy," Jake threw his insult back at him. Rafael exploded and lunged at him punching the living daylight out of him. "Stop Raphael!" McKenzie screamed and tried to pull him off her boyfriend. After exchanging blows, Raphael was as equally messed up as Jake, he had given Jake a black eye and a broken nose while the latter had torn his shirt and given him a black eye and busted lips. "Come on McKenzie, come with me," he reached for her hand, "please," he added. "Don't touch me," she screamed and pushed him away and rushed to help her boyfriend. "McKenzie?" "Fuck you Renova!" She sent him a death glare, "I never want to see you in my life ever again," she marched to him and slapped him whipping his head to the side. Shocking! Such shocking event! McKenzie went back to her help her boyfriend who was currently incapacitated. Jake turned and sent him a smirk and a wink meaning he had gotten the girl, people had already gathered and we're taking pictures at

    Damien looked at his friend in silent pity as he downed glass after glass of whiskey pathetically. Earlier, he had drove in to his mansion like a madman, screaming and breaking things in anger, he only stopped when he threatened to throw him out if he didn't state his business. "I told you not to put all your heart in the chase," he glanced at his friend who continued drinking the whiskey as if it was water. "She left me...she left me for that wimp," Raphael slammed the glass on the marble slab angrily. "She was never with you, she was never yours to begin with," Damien reminded him. "Right from the beginning, she was always trying to get away from you, you just pushed too far." "The heck I pushed too far! I fucking love her man, I wanted to show her my love.." "And you did it the wrong way," he interrupted flatly. "What the fuck do you know about love, you couldn't even keep your marriage," Raphael sneered, even if he wasn't himself, he shouldn't have said such. Dami

She shrieked when she landed on a man's chest, she looked up and frowned."Where do you think you are going?"

Wtf is Damien doing with Cara?"I have to get my boss," she gave him an 'i don't care' look and struggled to free herself.

    Damien's POV The door opened slightly, revealing a little blond girl with a pair of mischievous green eyes. "Hi Mister," she grinned. I stood stunned, staring at the little grinning creature in front of me not saying a word. Her green eyes were like mine but she looked alot like Cara, it took no soothsayer to tell me she was my kid. The little girl tilted her head, her eyes still sparkling, "Hey Mister, are you here for my mommy?" I was about to answer when another voice came out from behind the door, a boy with dark brown hair and blue eyes poked his head out. His eyes were just like Cara's, he even had her hair color but he looked alot like me. So this was what I would look like if I had brown hair and blue eyes. He gave me a questioning look and widened the entrance. "Paris, didn't Mom say we were expecting someone?" The little boy flicked the girl's forehead and ran in yelling. Paris, that was the name of my daughter. I crouched to her level, "are you alright?" She was hol

Please wait!" Carson called but she pressed the button, the elevator doors shut and descended. "Where is she?" Damien impatiently looked around and sighted the glowing numbers above the elevator, he wasted no time and took the stairs leaving his assistant dumbfounded."Take care of that thing in my office," he shouted.
