Chapter 3: The New Arrival

Damian 's POV

The soft light of the bedside lamp cast long shadows across the room, accentuating the richness surrounding me. I leaned back against the plush pillows, my fingers drumming a rhythmic pattern on the silk sheets. Beside me, Sophia lay gracefully, her presence a familiar comfort. Yet, despite her allure, my thoughts were consumed by another.

Lena.

Her memory haunted me: the flash of her eyes in terror and defiance, the slight quaver in her voice. Since the last time we met, she had been an unwanted visitor in my mind-a puzzle begging to be unraveled. There was this inexplicable tug, this curiosity that needed satiation.

Sophia's voice cut through my reverie, her melodic tones recounting tales I'd heard a thousand times before. I gave her a distracted smile, my attention drifting toward the door, anticipation coiling within me.

A discreet knock interrupted the ambiance. One of my trusted men entered, his posture respectful yet alert. I nodded at him. "Bring her in," I commanded, my voice even, though impatience simmered beneath the surface.

He was out the door in an instant, and a few seconds later, it opened again. Lena filled the frame, her body language uncertain, her eyes wide as they scanned the room before coming to rest on me. The vulnerability emanating from her was almost palpable, but beneath it, a spark of resilience flickered.

Sophia's eyes, too, had followed mine, resting on Lena. A sly smile twisted her lips. "So, you're the new girl," she drawled, condescension lacing every word. "Here to serve Damian , I presume?

I watched as Lena's shoulders slightly tensed, her gaze falling to the floor. She said nothing. She just absorbed that verbal blow and didn't strike back. She looked uncomfortable, and a part of me enjoyed that power play in that.

Sophia pressed on, the entertainment evident in her tone. "I suppose you'll be here to satisfy him, huh?" She giggled, the light, melodious sound so at odds with the viciousness of her words. Lena's gaze darted between us, a frown of confusion and unease upon her face.

A wave of possession swirled inside my belly. I wasn't ready to have Lena dismissed or slighted. There was more I wanted to learn, layers I wanted to strip away.

"I'm keeping her," I said, my tone leaving no room for discussion. An eyebrow winged upwards as Sophia's eyes sparkled with curiosity, but she said nothing.

A moment later, the words came, thoughtful. "You sure about that? I could use some help around my place. Maybe she'd be better off with me, helping out around the house."

And at the mere suggestion, a spark of irritation had flared to life. The memory of Lena's vulnerability, the softness of her skin, the way she had trembled-it was all too fresh, too intoxicating. I wasn't ready to let her go.

"I'll let you have her for a while," I conceded, though reluctance laced my words. "But when I want her back, she'll return to me.

Sophia's smile broadened, the glint of amusement dancing in her gaze. "Fair enough," she replied, rising fluidly from the bed. "But don't expect me to keep her indefinitely.

She strode towards Lena, her grasp firm as she clutched the girl's arm, hauling her in the direction of the door. Just as they had almost reached the doorway, an impulse swept me to my feet. I closed the space separating us in a second, my figure towering over Lena. She froze. In her eyes, wide with fear, a dawning realization of her predicament shone bright.

I hunched over, making my voice very low and threatening. "Remember this: now you're mine."

A quiver traversed her body-a dumb acknowledgment of the authority that was presently bestowed upon me. Before she could utter a word, Sophia pulled her through the doorway, leaving me there with a whirlwind of conflicted emotions.

The moment the door shut behind them, I sagged back onto the bed, frustration and desire battling inside me. Lena was a mystery, one challenge I was far from being ready to let go of.

Yet, this nagging intuition told me it was going to be a route riddled with complications. In this game full of twists and turns, I was determined not to lose my control.

Entering, the sumptuous décor of the room did little to mask the tangible tension in the air. Sophia stood erect beside the grand four-poster bed, her body tense, arms crossed over her chest in an imperious display of authority. Her eyes, hard and unforgiving, rested on Lena, who sat on her knees submissively beside an ornate laundry basket. The image evoked an anger within me, clenching deep within my chest. "Get it together," Sophia's voice cut through the silence, thick with malice. "You're here to serve, aren't you? Then do it properly." My hands clenched at my sides, the knuckles whitening under the

    Chapter Five Damian’s Perspective The atmosphere in the room was thick with unease as I clasped Lena’s delicate hand, her fingers trembling slightly within my grasp. I was determined to extricate her from this oppressive environment—away from Sophia and the escalating turmoil that threatened to engulf us. My mind raced, strategizing our escape, when my gaze inadvertently drifted to the expansive, ornately framed window overlooking the driveway. I stopped in my tracks as a sleek, black sedan drew to a halt outside. The familiarity hit me like a hammer blow. All too well did I know the car and the man it bespoke. The doors opened as one, and three men spilled out. They moved with deliberate calculation, sans tailored suits or obvious weaponry, yet exuding an aura of threat. It was in their posture-the predatory assurance, the faint, smug smiles-that put my teeth on edge. My opponent. Victor Moretti. What was he doing here of all places?

My hand still tingled from where Damian had gripped it, pulling me away from Sophia's house with an urgency that left no room for questions. Now, it lay motionless in my lap, a stark contrast to the turmoil brewing inside me. I couldn't tell if the trembling was from residual reaction of the confrontation or from the thick tension that wafted from Damian. His jaw was clenched so tightly that the muscles fluttered beneath his skin, and his hands gripped the steering wheel with such force I feared it might snap under the pressure. His gaze was fixed on the road ahead, eyes narrowed as if the asphalt had personally offended him. The intensity of his demeanor made me shrink back into my seat-a futile attempt at creating distance in the confined space. I wanted to break the silence, to ask him about the men who had appeared

The words sounded like the sentence of a judge-final and absolute. A debt I didn't owe. A price I never agreed to pay. Heavy tension; silence fell, and then another voice-a total contrast to the first-fell. Smooth, controlled, dangerously cold. "And you expect me to take this?" A shiver traced its path up my spine.

This was only a thin, lumpy mattress laid on a rusted metal frame with scratchy, threadbare sheets. The air was thick with damp and a metallic tang I couldn't place. I sat on the edge of the bed, drawing my knees up and hugging them to myself, trying in vain to still the relentless shaking that had seized my body. My mind was reeling with questions, one more unbelievable than the other. Why am I here? What does Damian want from me? How did my life spiral into this nightmare? The sound of footsteps down the hall yanked me out of my spiraling thoughts. My heart rammed into high speed, my body tensed, as the heavy wooden door creaked open. A hulking figure- one
