Thank you for reading.
“Hola señorita, I would like an Aperol Spritz please.” Evelyn smiled sheepishly at the man in front of her who had just made an order. “Um… sure.” She darted her eyes in the restroom's direction nervously, wondering what was taking Tom so long. He had excused himself for a bit, telling her he will be back soon but now there was a guest and she had no idea how to make this Aperol or whatever it’s called, she didn’t know anything about it. She looked up at the expectant customer and chuckled awkwardly, “I’m sorry, I’ll just call the bartender for you.” The man raised his brows, raking his eyes over her body. “You’re not one? But you’re dressed in uniform.” “Um, well…” Evelyn stammered. She didn’t know what to say. Just when she was about to accept the order, Tom came out of the restroom and widened his eyes in fear. ‘Shit! I left my post now there’s a man talking flirtatiously to the boss’ woman. I’ll be in deep shit if he sees this.’ He rushed over to the counter and said ha
Evelyn’s heart was almost leaping out of her chest as it thumped louder than ever before. She didn’t know what had gotten into her. But since she was already sitting on Damian’s lap, she thought she might as well go all the way. Whining her waist sensually, she rocked her hips back and forth on him. An adorable pink crept up her cheeks as she gazed deeply into Damian’s eyes. ‘Oh my God! I can’t believe I’m doing this.’ Soon, she noticed Damian's eyes began to turn a shade darker, lust swirling in them just as she felt something poking her right on her core. Her eyes widened when it throbbed against her, making her jump up from his lap immediately, feeling all hot and bothered. “I just wanted to get today’s... Um .. ten thousand dollars since you were not satisfied with the wine.” She explained hastily, her heart pounding vigorously. She was afraid that she had just provoked the devil. Damian squinted his eyes at Evelyn. He had been taken aback when she suddenly rode him f
Damian couldn’t believe he wasn’t able to calm himself down even after several minutes had passed after Evelyn performed the striptease for him. It wasn’t professionally done, but that made it even more exciting. Every day, he fought the urge to destroy her and make her his. But he held himself back. She was too innocent for him. He couldn’t let her get involved in his world. But the way she swayed her hips and rubbed herself on him, he couldn’t stop himself from having a raging hard-on. It took his all not to bend her over the table and claim her right there and then but he knew better and controlled himself. She was only doing that to pay her debts. Thinking about how soft her body felt in his arms, Damian’s rod tightened in his pants. “Fuck.” He cursed, pressing on the intercom. “Yes boss.” “Tell Sasha to come to my office. Now.” He ordered. For now, she would do. He had to vent… the blood rushing down south was driving him crazy. A few minutes later, someone knocked on th
Evelyn visibly relaxed, letting out a breath she didn’t even know she was holding. “Only?” She asked Damian, sizing him up suspiciously. She was surprised that he chose to have dinner with her after all the things he could demand. 'Could he be up to something?' She questioned herself. “Yes, a candlelight dinner. A date.” Damian replied quietly, his eyes not leaving her face. Wanting to see all her expressions. His brows furrowed slightly, not understanding why he had made such a request. ‘It was probably the only thing I could ask her for. That’s why.’ He convinced himself in his mind. Evelyn bit her lip and blushed, “Ok. But I don’t have clothes for dinner.” Damian said nothing and after a few seconds, Evelyn turned her attention to the battered man who was getting up from the floor with difficulty. She followed him and helped him up. “Sir, I don’t know what you did but you’ve been given a second chance. Don’t waste it.” She encouraged him as she led him out of the room with a
Damian felt his heart beating wildly like a drum for the first time in his life. He had never tasted lips so delicious and sweet. The fact that Evelyn was responding to him with her amateur skills made his shaft strain painfully in his pants. It was surprising, but this was the first time Damian was on the verge of losing control because of a woman. And he didn’t know the reason why this was the case. ‘Is it because she’s too innocent?’ he asked himself, feeling conflicted. He deepened the kiss, pouring his hunger and desire into it. Evelyn turned into putty in his arms and seeing her state, Damian knew that if he wanted to go further tonight she would let him. The idea was tempting to him. But he held himself back. He couldn’t do that to her. Not when he lived dangerously. Dragging her into his world would destroy her. Damian’s hesitation baffled him more. Why the hell would he care? He always did what he wanted. Taking any woman he wanted since none could resist him but wi
The next day, Damian and Evelyn rode his Rolls-Royce to the mall so that they could do some shopping. The whole time, Evelyn was looking out the window, averting Damian’s gaze. She couldn’t help but replay last night’s scene in her mind over and over again. Her lips had been devoured mercilessly such that she could still feel the soreness in them. Damian was a really good kisser. Not that she had a reference but from the way he dominated her, she was overwhelmed by his prowess. Closing her eyes, the image of Damian kissing her harder and deeper with each second flashed in the back of her eyelids. It was so fierce. So intense... She felt electrical currents coursing through her being. Gosh! It was hard to describe. But Evelyn couldn’t admit that she liked it. When they called it a night, it took a while for her to finally sleep. She kept tossing and turning in bed thinking Damian would want to do more. Those thoughts kept her on edge but she ended up sleeping without realizin
Evelyn’s face was a deep shade of red as Damian paid for the clothes she had chosen. But that was not the reason why she was blushing profusely and avoiding eye contact with everyone. Damian picked a variety of lingerie and added them to her cart despite her protests. Feeling ashamed, Evelyn felt she couldn’t face the sales lady as she checked them out at the till. Her heart was pounding in her chest thinking he had gone too far. ‘How can he be so shameless?’ Feeling like she was being watched, Evelyn wanted so badly to find a hole and hide in it. The folds between Damian’s brows tightened. He lowered his gaze at Evelyn. She had her head bowed, looking at the floor and he worried she would break her neck. He curled his hand under her chin, tilting her head up but he saw her flushed face. A low amused chuckle left his lips. ‘Is she shy? She’s so cute.’ Wanting to tease her more, he leaned down and whispered in her ear. “Don’t be so shy. I’m still going to check your size no m
After leaving the ice cream shop, Damian took Evelyn to a jewelry shop. His eyes scanned the different necklaces on display and they suddenly landed on a blue sapphire which immediately caught his attention. He thought, for a fact, it would look good on his little pet. Signaling to the seller secretly… he arranged with him to have it sent to his address. After making the payment, his brows furrowed, he was confused by his own actions. When did he become so soft and even bought gifts for a woman? His eyes landed on Evelyn who was busy gawking at the diamond rings inside the display glass cabinet and he knew why. Her. She was changing him. Because of her, he could openly flirt and talk more than he usually would. She was like the sun illuminating light into his dark life. Walking over to her, he leaned next to her ear and whispered. “Let’s go. Or do you want me to buy you a ring?” Evelyn jumped in alarm, feeling startled. But his words rang loudly in her head. “No… why would
Several months later after Nina and Jack’s wedding, Damian held a party for Evelyn to celebrate their fifth anniversary. Unlike their wedding, this event was grand. Damian had decided to introduce his heir, Aiden Hill, the future Mafia boss of his empire. The Country was a much safer place with most of his enemies behind bars and the streets were clean of drugs. Not entirely though but now, he had many on his side fighting for a drug-free Country to protect their loved ones. Evelyn was dolled up in a silver off-the-shoulder gown that was fitted up to the knees then the rest of the gown was flared, touching the ground. The neckline had diamond details with a plunging slit in the middle, showing a little cleavage. Her curves were hugged perfectly by the dress, painting a picture of poise and grace. As for her strawberry blond hair, it was raised up into an elegant updo held together by diamond clips that sparkled when she moved. The simple makeup she put on her face accentuated h
Four years later. “I passed the bar!” Evelyn exclaimed the moment the call went through. “Wow. Congratulations kitten. You deserve it.” Damian’s equally elated voice echoed through the phone. Evelyn had completed her studies a while ago and had to sit for bar exams for her to become a lawyer. The following weeks had been difficult for her because she was worried about her results. It was not easy for one to pass the bar. Evelyn made sure she studied hard and with the help of her husband, she was able to understand most of the cases. Although the exam hit her hard as it was harder than expected. This was why seeing her name on the list of those who made it made her feel emotional. She never thought she would pass the bar on the first try. When she thought about how far she had come, tears couldn’t help but sting her eyes. “I’m so happy Damian. I can’t believe it. It’s a dream come true.” “You worked hard my love. You just got what you worked for. I am happy for you. We shou
Evelyn’s mind was filled with curiosity as Damian carried her out of the plane bridal style. With her eyes closed, she could only rely on what her ears could pick up to try and guess her surroundings. They entered a car and it drove for about an hour or so. Damian carried her once more and she could tell they were now on a boat. The scent of the ocean coupled with the soft breeze that brushed against her skin gave her a refreshing feeling. She wasn’t scared of not being able to see where she was going because Damian was by her side. When the boat came to a stop, she felt Damian carry her again and they soon entered a warm enclosed space that she assumed was where they would be staying. “We are here my love. But, I’m not taking your blindfold off yet.” Damian whispered huskily. Evelyn felt how Damian began to undress her slowly. His hands brushed her skin ever so lightly leaving tingles in their wake and when he finally rolled her panties down her legs, she knew she was in for
When Evelyn and Damian got back together, Damian sent Sasha away to work in the territory he had just taken over. He did this to avoid problems and he didn’t want Evelyn to be uncomfortable. However, Sasha felt aggrieved. She genuinely loved Damian and hoped he would keep her as a plaything forever since she knew he never wanted to get married. He didn’t want any form of weakness in his life. But when he suddenly fell in love and decided to get married, she knew that she was wrong. It was not that Damian didn’t want to fall in love. He just couldn't love her. Jealousy bloomed in her heart when she heard Evelyn was pregnant and then later heard about the wedding while she was doing some work in Zach’s former territory. She was angry that she was cast away like she was nothing. Her place was by Damian’s side but it was stolen by Evelyn. It was supposed to be her who held the lady boss title. The things she had done for Damian... There was no way she would accept walking away em
“Congratulations Eve. You got us all worried.” Nina said to Evelyn. She was seated by her bedside while Damian was holding the baby and Jack was making peek-a-boo faces at him. Evelyn smiled weakly. “I was scared too. There I was waiting to meet my baby and then I suddenly lost consciousness.” Nina held her hand. “I’m glad you’re ok now. You should have seen Damian. He almost lost it. The man really loves you and I can tell he will make you happy. If anyone deserves happiness, it’s you.” She was referring to how Evelyn spent unpleasant years in the orphanage. She had been bullied and there was no one to protect her. When her uncle came for her, they pretended to care for her but when her cousin Mark harassed her, they turned a blind eye. “We both deserve happiness.” Evelyn remarked. The medication she had taken was making her drowsy so she found herself dozing off. Damian noticed this from a distance and approached her. “Sleep, my love. I’ll take care of Aiden.” He promis
Damian raised one of his eyebrows, wondering what Evelyn was on about. He placed her leg that he was massaging down on his lap and stared at her. “What is that supposed to mean?” He asked, bemused at her sudden question. What did she mean by what were his plans for the future? Hadn’t they discussed this already? “Just that. What are your plans?” Evelyn asked again. Her voice rose an octave higher. “Well, you do know my plans. I intend to expand my territory while you get busy with school and also to make this Country a safer place for our child.” Damian replied calmly. “So you don’t plan to marry me? How come I’m not in your plans?” Evelyn yelled, her eyes brimming. Damian was shocked, to say the least. “Where is this coming from? Who said I don’t plan to marry you?” He asked. The poor man didn't understand what was going on. “I asked what your plan was and you didn’t include me in them.” Evelyn responded, her voice shaking. Being in the third trimester, she was becoming
Months later. Nina was preparing for a date with her boyfriend Jack. Things were great for everyone in the past weeks. Evelyn and Damian were expecting so they spent most of their time away from the club and Jack took up most of the work for Damian. Today was one of the rare days that he was having a break so he asked Nina out on a date since they had not gone around much due to their lack of time. Nina was combing her red hair when her mother, Grace walked into her bedroom. “Mom, why don’t you like knocking? One day you will find I’ve sneaked a boy in here.” Nina complained while seated in front of the dressing mirror. “That’s exactly why I don’t knock. Besides, why should I knock in my own house?” Grace sauntered into the room and took the comb from her daughter’s hand and began to comb her hair which was similar to hers. “You know, when you brought that man Jack to meet us, your father wasn’t happy that you started dating so soon. I’m also afraid that I might lose you s
“Nothing you say can change anything. They are gone and you killed them.” Evelyn choked as tears stung her eyes. “And I…” A sob escaped her lips, closing her eyes. “I’m a sinner. I’ve let them down for allowing last night to happen.” Her soul was burning with guilt. She felt like she had no right to go to her parent’s grave because she didn’t stick to her promise. Damian who was seated by the edge of the bed softened his gaze and reached out his hand, stroking her hair. She didn’t dodge this time. Wouldn’t she be a hypocrite pretending like she didn’t want him to touch her? After all, she had let more than an innocent touch happen a few hours ago. “Eve, I didn’t kill your parents.” Damian’s deep gentle voice came. Evelyn thought he was just trying to make her feel better so she didn’t bother to look at him and just continued to beat herself up. “I didn’t even know who your parents are. It was only last night when you mentioned it in your sleep that I decided to investigate
Damian glanced down at Evelyn who lay in his arms, sleeping peacefully. He stroked her hair and kissed her forehead, his expression softening. The fire that had erupted between them during their hot session was still vivid in his mind. She still wanted him. Physically at least, she still had feelings for him. That was enough to give him hope. He could win her love back they just needed to talk and sort whatever problem they had out. Damian massaged his temples thinking women were really strange. It was hard to read them. Imagine someone just starts throwing tantrums without explaining their reason for it and expecting you to guess? He was willing to do anything for her as long she stayed with him. Now that he had calmed down and emptied his blue balls, he had a sound mind and could think properly. When he went through Evelyn’s medical files he saw that the pregnancy was eight weeks old. He remembered it was the period after they had Zach locked up in jail. They couldn’t keep
