[Cara]

Damon is here.

I know I am still mad at him, but then he could be our last hope to get out of here alive.

Just the sound of Burson's voice below us was enough to make Nancy quake, and it made my stomach turn and churn in a revolting manner whenever I thought about him and Ashley torridly kissing. My mind simply could not wrap itself around the idea that the two of them were related in any way.

“It’s going to be fine, Nancy,” I whispered to my friend, coaxing her to focus on me instead of the men below us.

We stayed still for I didn’t know how long until everything became still again. I peered into the exhausted, ensuring that no one will be able to hear us crawl into the vent.

I nudge her, making her go forward first as I follow closely behind her. We were moving at a snail's pace rate, but at least we are making more progress than none at all.

As we made our way deeper into the vent's dusty surface, the space there became increasingly congested. The unfiltered air traveling th

    [3rd POV—Damon]Blood. That was all that he could see.The crimson, viscous liquid pooled around the concrete floor and flooded his vision.He wasn’t supposed to be afraid of it.In fact, he had to bathe himself numerous times with the blood of his enemies.He even knows what’s the taste of it.However, it becomes entirely different when the blood that is spilling right now is from the woman he cherished the most.His beacon of light. The only good in his bad.It was terrifying to look at.Utterly frightening to the point that his mind almost immediately went blank.The rage that had bottled up inside him blew up and started to consume him. His wrath traveled from his chest channeled into his arm and into his finger, prompting him to squeeze the trigger just in time for Cara’s body to fall limply into the floor.One bullet.It could only take one bullet to be able to end a person’s life. But it wasn’t going to be enough.Damon shoots Burson in the shoulders at first, then his leg, gi

    [Cara]Darkness…Darkness filled my vision no matter how hard I tried to keep my eyes open. Turning to some point that, I have to physically check my eyes to make sure they’re still open. It was completely dark, with no dotted light that could be spotted in all directions.“Hello?”My voice resounded loudly in the abyss, fading away as it traveled further and further until it was finally swallowed up by the deafening quiet.Where am I?Fear started to encrypt into my senses, and the hairs on the back of my neck sprang up in sheer trepidation.“Anyone?” I called again, whipping around while frantically looking about in the hopes of spotting some kind of indication or flicker of light that I could follow. Yet, there’s nothing. Just an eerie silence and darkness drowning me.“Nancy?”I remembered the last time we were running away from Burson.He was chasing us, prowling behind us while Nancy was injured with her ankle twisted and my body sapped with the strength to run.I sift through

    [Cara]I don’t know what I should feel about his presence. Somewhat thankful that he had saved Nancy and me once again but also hateful that he got us there in the first place.“Baby, it’s alright. You are now safe.” Mom pulled my attention and noticed my body was visibly trembling, still shaken from the nightmares that plagued me.There were four of them now. Two of them were already dead. It is completely unknown to me whether or not Burson is still alive. Nonetheless, they still manage to make me suffer even with their absence. While the other one was still alive, whose pair of dark orbs were staring at me intently as though I would disappear from his sight at any given moment.A multitude of emotions was starting to flood me, to the point I didn’t know which one I would listen to.Mom said I am safe, but I’m still not.“How are you feeling, Cara.” He lifted his hands and was about to touch my face, but my body reacted so swiftly and recoiled away from him.“You have eyes, can’t yo

    [Cara]The days flew by in a haze, and the improvements in my physical condition have been consistent across the board. Fortunately, the wound on my side wasn’t deep enough to hit vital organs. Though I got eight stitches from it and was healing nicely, all I could say was that Burson was one sloppy old bastard. Right now, all I am waiting for is my discharge notice so that I can go home after all this, and he said it wouldn’t take long before the billing section clears me up.After that conversation mom and I had, she turned a bit wary around me. I could feel her reluctance, the way she was contemplating her every movement near me as if I were some kind of time bomb that could detonate at any given moment. Though, she was still trying to act as though that conversation had never even happened.However, she was a terrible actress. I could clearly see everything through the façade she was trying to put on. Speaking of acting. I had so many impending questions about what happened afte

    [Cara] I was at a loss for what to do or what I should be doing. My body moves of its own volition, yanking on the tubes inserted into the back of my palm, leaving the needles completely abandoned. Ignoring my mother’s shocked screams just as I was pushing myself up from the couch I was perched on and the searing pain that jabbed on my side, spearing into my entire system. My legs moved, and I bolted out the door before I knew it.The hallway was practically empty as my eyes darted frantically around. Just when I turned around, I caught a fleeting glimpse of a brown leather jacket dad was wearing, fading to the right corner. He was walking nonchalantly as though he did not just blow my head like a nuclear bomb dropping directly into my head.“No, dad, wait!” I started running and limping at the same time as every step I took, sending a piercing pain into my lower abdomen right around where I had been stabbed.“Cara!”Mom’s hysterical voice echoed, chasing behind me, but I didn’t even

    [Cara] The familiar warm sensation wrapped around me, mingling with the pain twisting on my side and the pang of despondency battling inside me. I’m not even sure what to feel anymore. I’m so confused. I don’t want Damon anywhere near me, much less being held this close, arms wrapped around me. But at the same time, an old feeling that I had almost forgotten I could feel came rushing in, gradually dismantling the barrier I had constructed around my defenses.As much as I repulsed him with every drop of my consciousness, I couldn’t seem to pull him away. Physically, I don’t have the strength, but, deep down underneath the thick layers covering my heart, the old me was indulging in his presence. Basking in him.“Put me down.” My voice cracked, hissing in pain while putting more pressure on my side.His long stride had drastically put a quite distance from everyone falling behind us. He crosses me through the lobby with much ease, as though I weigh nothing more than a feather.“Not now,

    [Cara] It’s been three months now, yet instead of waking up with the sound of my alarm clock, I jolted up on my bed, screaming bloody murder. I’ve been taking meds, helping me with my anxiety and melatonin. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night.For the past couple of hours, I’ve been standing naked in front of the mirror inside my bathroom, staring at my reflection, counting each fading scar marred on my skin, especially the one on my side. The deepest and the most pronounced of them all. I’ve been back in my apartment since Burson had already been cared for. I see no reason not to stay in my place where I could be at peace in living alone.Mom, of course, protested at the thought of it, but she got no choice, and no, I refused to get medical attention to see a psychiatrist. I don’t want some stranger peering into the worst part of my life and opening the wound I’ve been working so hard to bandage shut.Well, except for Nancy. She agreed with her mom to get to a psychiatris

    [Cara]“Fucking no!” I blustered out in stupefaction, seething that he hadn’t even consulted me first before planning this out.Did he ever stop and consider what I said in this? If I was okay? Does he not know the struggle I’ve been coping with?Why does he have to be so selfish?I stared down at the paper, glaring at it so feverishly, hoping that I would be able to incinerate it and combust it into flames with my stare.This cretin thought it would be a good idea to arrange an engagement ball for the two of us, despite the fact that my panic attack was already severe enough when people approached me from a close distance. And yet, here I am, thinking I was the one who has gone to madness when in fact, this bastard right here is even more insane than me.“Are you fucking out of your mind?” Exasperation drawled in my voice as I threw my hands in the air, kicked the chair behind me, and paced back to the glass window, needing to breathe without his presence suffocating my senses.The d

    [Damon] ***Ten years later...*** I run my thumb over her lips the slides my fingers into her hairline, gripping her close as much as I can while she moves on top of me, grinding and taking me inside her.God, I love this woman with all my heart. It fucking hurts like I am going to explode.Right inside her.Her back arches, and her hair falls down her spine as she rides me, and I lean back on my elbow, holding her hip.Fuck, baby. I groan.“God, Damon,” Cara whimpers, her knees on my side trembling.She digs her nails into my shoulders and comes in, kissing me, her taste and heat making my fucking head spin. This was the second time in six hours. She, climbing on top of me and stirring me awake at the crack of dawn just ten minutes ago.How easily I stir for her, though. My beautiful wife.Ten years.A decade has passed since that night.Yet, I still couldn't believe the vision I had with her had now come true.We are now living in a two-story house.

    [Cara]He was frantic and disoriented from having the sack on his head. He lists too much and fights the bonds on his wrist.“Get them out of here and make sure their mouths are sealed before I will,” Damon instructed a few of the armed men to get the catering crew out of here. His threats are resolute, and I'm sure as hell that if one of them squeaks, that would be the very last sound they make.A shudder ran down my spine, but it wasn't for the horrible thought of what Damon might do to the poor catering crews, but mainly to the man’s hysterical blue eyes glued on me. A momentary surprise registered on his face upon seeing me, but then he was back wrestling with his binds.The vivid anger in me burns the back of my throat, seeing my father's face as well as the one responsible for his death. He tries to talk, but the gag on his mouth shuts him up. Salvatore unceremoniously rips the fabric off his mouth and grabs his head by the hair.“C-Cara?” He sputtered, recovering his breath.“

    [Cara]I felt comfortable and confident with the dress I chose. It was a tight-fitted tube with a chromatic effect that changes hues when the light hits it. Though I topped it up with a white pea coat, covering Damon’s bite marks was glowing in brilliant red on the skin on my shoulders.My make was already done, and I just let my hair hang in its natural curls, cascading down to my waist, then paired it with black Louboutin shoes with rhinestones lining around the pointed heels.I was staring at my reflection in the mirror for one final glance as I eased my nerves. Just then, the doorbell chimes, and the raging dread fire starts again and coils in my gut.Damon says it's going to be fine, and I trust him. However, I am not worried about this man, but rather the information he brings us. A knock came through the door on cue, and Damon’s voice followed. “Cara, my love.”It’s going to be fine. I tell myself and take a deep breath. Traipsing across the room and opening the door.“I’m don

  • Midnight Phantom   Chapter 140: Quickie

    [Cara]I was fidgeting my fingers as I stared at myself in the mirror, unable to contain my raging nerves and needles pricking at my throat, making it hard to swallow.Damon assures me that everything is going to be fine, but is it going to be?He invited Salvatore Servantes to his home, or should I say his penthouse. Yes, we haven't been back to his glass mansion or he lets me go with my mom when she says she's going back home. He didn't even allow me to return to my condo.It's only the two of us, but it will be soon that Salvatore comes ringing the doorbells.Damon is true to his words when he says he will let this guy who ordered to kill Henry come over and dine with us.Perforation rigged into my large almond eyes as my gaze traveled down to my chest, to tiny scars above the swell of my breasts, and disappeared underneath my bra. The tip of my fingers unconsciously brushes over the small lump of a scar on my side. Mentally counting the stitches and cursing Burson’s soul to rot in

  • Midnight Phantom   Chapter 139: Picket White Fence

    [3rd POV—Damon]Damon watches Cara sleeps in his arms. The fact that she was snoring softly and appearing calm gave the impression that she was having a pleasant dream rather than one of the terrifying nightmares that had been tormenting her sleep for some time after the traumatic event. That there were no monsters chasing to touch her.The air was thick with the stale smell of after-sex, their naked bodies were entangled in a comfortable way, and both of their breathing was in perfect harmony. She was sprawled atop him, her breasts squished on his ribs. The side of her cheek pressed to his chest just above where his heart softly pounding. As though it was the last sound she was listening to that lulled her to sleep.Damon carefully cleared the golden tresses veiling on her beautiful face, his index trailing the fine bridge of her nose. Her eyes fluttered from his touch as though, even though, through her sleep, she could still recognize him. He stilled for a moment when she stirred,

    [Cara] He motioned to his tenting arousal and didn’t need to elaborate on what he wanted me to do. My entire system seemed to know as well what he needed.I unzipped his trousers and took out his agonizingly hot, stiff, turgid cock. He pushed my head slightly so the tip of the rested cock rested on my lower lip, the weight of it making me pout. Damon stared down at me as though he appeared to be waiting for me to act. Grabbing a fistful of my hair, he gently pulled me back so my throat was almost perfectly aligned, a straight passage from my mouth to my stomach, and my spine bent downwards with my breasts hanging hefty just above the sheets.Instinctively, my mouth opened, and his cock slipped in, resting heavily on my tongue as the salty tang wrapped around my taste buds. I have a small mouth and the bulk of his shaft still surprises me even though this wasn’t the first time I’ve given him a blowjob.Damon began stroking my hair softly.Moving his hips as he began to feed his shaft s

  • Midnight Phantom   Chapter 137: Count to Six

    [Cara] When I believed I had already gotten the hang of repressing my feelings, I found out otherwise. Damon was precisely like a wrecking ball, crashing through the thick walls I had built and reducing them to dust in the process. I pushed myself up and swung my legs over the edge of the bed. I turned my gaze around and noticed I was in an unfamiliar room. However, the manly scent that permeated my nostrils reminded me so much of him, and I immediately knew this room was his.Maybe one of his properties.I sigh, feeling the heaviness on my chest weighing me down. “I'm sorry.” The words just tumbled out of my mouth while in my head, chanting apologies for the foolishness railed in my thoughts. “I am so sorry.”How selfish could I have been? My gaze zeroed in on my fingers, fidgeting on my lap. They had already taken me out of my gown and changed me into a red satin night shift.A deep growl resonated in his chest as he hooked his index around my chin, tilting my head up. Dark eyes bu

  • Midnight Phantom   Chapter 136: Could've Been

    [Cara] Damon was about to attack Henry, but I grabbed his arm to stop him. He was still clutching the gun that he had taken from me, and I have no doubt that he won't think twice about putting a bullet in Henry's head. Damon came to a standstill and focused his perplexed gaze on me for a moment.“He made you cry,” he grumbled, his irritation clearly visible on his face and the stench of liquor oozing from his breath as he spoke.He had been drinking before he came here. He must have been stressed out with me leaving so abruptly without saying a word to him or explaining why I just did that.I breathe deeply, feeling completely spent. “He did, and he’s going to pay for what he did.” My focus shifts to Henry as I try to rein in my rage before it consumes me completely once more. “But not right now.”I have enough for this day—too much information I didn't know how to handle.“Cara,” Henry uttered my name in a hushed tone that was hardly inaudible due to the sound of the chopper's blades

  • Midnight Phantom   Chapter 135: Tempting Notion

    [Cara]I was so angry I didn't realize that I had destroyed all the things inside Henry's office. The table’s a wreck, the chairs been upturned and one leg was broken. The stack of documents piled on the table scattered the floor, and shards of broken glasses hazardously littered the floor.“Cara, please calm down before you hurt yourself.” I snapped my vicious attention to Henry, glaring daggers at him. Honestly, I was surprised by his imperturbability, as though he wasn’t dealing with an unhinged woman who was on the verge of madness.Which, unfortunately, turns out to be me.He raises his hands in surrender, yet he keeps inching closer to me. “Let’s talk this over.”Is this man making me laugh? “Talk?” I scoffed, looking at him indignantly. He wanted to talk? If he did, he could have done it long before he discovered he had a long-lost twin brother and introduced himself to us. But no, he only chose to reveal himself when it was already too late. My dad died because of his stupid
