Damon's POV

I followed the police as they entered the house. There was no sign of Jake or Monica. We searched everywhere but we couldn't find Sophie nor the antidote.

It seemed like they knew we were coming and escaped because their belongings are still here. I punched the wall angrily and grabbed my hair in frustration.

We are back to square one now and this time, it is worse because we've angered Jake. I better go back to the hospital now.

Only God knows what would happen to them if I'm not around.

I left the house, entered my car and zoomed off ignoring Silas who was calling after me.

I need to get to them fast.

Jake's POV

We stopped at my second hideout and I rushed out angrily. I can't believe she tried to outsmart me. That crazy bitch.

'Dad, what do we do now?' Monica asked but l ignored her.

Coralline didn't like it when I was playing nice. She wants it the hard way and that's what I'll give her. She would regret not agreeing to my request.

I smiled evily when I got an idea. I

I need to check.' He said.He brought out his phone and dailed a number. He waited for the person at the other end to pick up the call but it went straight to voicemail.He tried countless times but it was still the same result. After seeing that his attempts were futile, he grabbed his hair in frustration and smashed the vase close to him into different pieces. I gasped in shock and pain when one of the shards pierced my knee.'What the hell is wrong with you?' I asked angrily.His angry eyes shifted to mine.'What did you just say to me?' He asked taking slow predatory steps towards me.I stood my ground and refused to be intimidated by him.'I said what the hell is wrong..'

I asked hoping she was just playing with me.'Why eould I be lying about something as serious as that?' She asked back.'But... but.... dad said that she slipped and fell down the stairs.' I said.'Your father lied to you. He murdered your mother because she found out that he planned Coralline and Damon's parents death. She wanted to report him but he got to her first.' She explained.I stared at her refusing to believe her claims.'Why should I believe you? What if you're just trying to pull I and my father apart?' I asked her.'I didn't expect you to believe me. You can just ask you father for the truth, he's right here.' She said nodding towards someone behind me.I looked over and saw dad staring at me.'Dad, is she telling the truth?'

It was no other person than my best friend Vivian m*aning and writhing under my fiancée john.They were oblivious to my presence and kept on locking lips with Vivian continuously moaning out his name.Immediately Vivian saw me she smirked at me and ask john a provoking question. 'John, who do you love more, me or your fiancee?'Then John replied in ecstasy 'It is only you that's in my heart my love. You can't compare yourself to that old hag, after being with her for four years now, she hasn't even agreed to let me taste her, if only she was a bit like you, sexy, wise and obedient, maybe just maybe I'd have chosen her. The b*tch doesn't even know that I'm using her just for pleasure.' I looked down at myself. How do I look like an old hag. How can he even regard me as one?I was hurt by what he said and shouted at him in anger 'John, how dare you?' He jolted immediately, he was probably surprised to see me. 'It's n

I was very deep in thought that I didn't know when the car came to a halt.'Are you going to sleep there?' Damon asked.I looked sideways and saw he had left the car already. I came down too and looked around. A wow escaped my lips, the place looked like heaven.I've never seen a mansion this huge and beautiful, technically I've never seen a mansion before.'come in' Damon said and took my hands in his. I stared at our interlocked fingers in admiration, they looked perfect together. He took me inside the mansion. Beauty and class are underestimated words to describe the the inside, Damon must have a really great taste, well his rich.He led me to a room.'Thank you for saving me' I told him 'You're welcome.

    Monica's POVI stared at him as he smiled happily.'So how did it go? What did she say?' I asked him.'What do you think?? She agreed as expected.' He said.'I can't believe she would be that gullible.' I said.'She's his mother. She would do anything for her son. Plus she isn't as smart as Damon or her father.' He said.'Are you sure that she would agree to your conditions. What if she tries to outsmart you like Damon did the last time?' I asked worriedly.'She won't because she would be the one at the losing end and she knows that. So she won't try anything stupid.' He said.'Okay. If you say so. Have you seen a lady that looks like her? Her replacement?' I asked.'Yes I have. If Coralline tries to pull a fast one on me, she would still lose. Her replacement would do all the work for me. Coralline has Damon wrapped up around her finger, so I'm sure that her replacement would be able to do the same.' He said.'Okay. So now, we'll have to wait till tomo...' I wasn't able to finish my

    Coralline's POVI stared at my phone in hesitation. Why did he call me instead? I thought he would have called dad or Damon.'You have to pick the call Cora. But remember to keep the call going, just do anything you can to waste his time so that we can be able to trace his number.' Dad said.I nodded and took a deep breath before picking the call. I put the call on loud speaker so they would be able to hear what I was saying.'Hello' I said.'Hello Coralline.' He said.'Who's this?' I asked acting like I didn't know he was the one.'Have you forgotten about me that fast? If I can remember clearly, we met three years ago. Wait, maybe you can't remember because to you, I'm already a dead man.' He said chuckling.'Jake Humphrey.' I said.'Bravo. You got my name in just one guess. You're getting smarter than you were years ago.' He said.'What do you want Jake?' I asked.'Funny that you're still asking that. Who doesn't know what I want?' He said.I sneered inwardly. What a greedy pig.'W

    NEXT DAYDamon's POVI looked over to see Coralline resting her head on Victor's bed. It seemed like she was asleep. I sighed and walked towards her.I carried her and placed her on the couch I was sitting on. I watched her face for a while. It seems like she had been crying because she had dark circles around her eyes.The door was suddenly pushed open and Silas walked in. His eyes wandered around the room and when they landed on Victor's pale figure, he rushed towards him.He crouched near his bed and placed his hands on him. I could hear him sobbing. I walked towards him and placed my hands on his back as a way of comforting him.'Damon, what happened to him. Why is he suddenly lying on thd hospital bed?' He asked me.I sighed and said'Monica did this. She poisoned Victor.' I said.His teary eyes suddenly changed into a frown.'So she was really working with her father? That means she knows where he is.' He said.'Yes. It's pretty obvious now.' I said.'Where is she? Where is that

I had really missed him.'You're finally here.' He said.'Yes dad. So how did I do?' I asked.'You did great. I'm really proud of you.' He said giving me a thumbs up.I smiled happily. If I knew it would lead to this, I would have done it earlier.'So dad, what's your next move? I'm sure they already know that you're alive and now that I have shown myself, no where is safe for me.' I said.'I have already planned on what to do already. Damon is going to come crawling to me when he finds out.' He said smiling.'Finds out what?' I asked confused.'I have the antidote to the poison you fed Victor with.' He said smiling mischievously.'So?? He can easily buy another antidote. He's wealthy remember' I said.'You see Monica, the poison I gave you is very rare and it will be hard for him to find an antidote

    She stared at me in shock after I was done with my explanation. I waited for her to say something or even be angry with me but she did nothing.She just stared at me and it was already getting uncomfortable for me because I was expecting a reaction from her.'Baby, say something.' I said after sometime but she didn't reply.'Anything.' I said again and she scoffed.'What do you expect me to say? Why didn't you tell me these before? If you had, we would have been able to avoid what happened this morning. And knowing Monica, she would be long gone. We don't even have a lead. The only lead we had poisoned our son and escaped. This is all you fault.' She said angrily.'Baby, now isn't the right time to start casting blames. We need to...''Need to what??' She asked cutting me off angrily.'What else do you want me to do instead of casting blames? I'm you wife for God's sake and you were keeping secrets from me. You even told my father things that was related to me instead of coming to me
