Chapter 3: Never-Ending Thoughts

2024-10-29 19:42:56Damien’s POV
“The work is done, boss,” Michael — one of my people — informed me. I nodded and he left the room.
I rubbed my forehead and sighed. Things have been difficult without Trevor. He wasn’t just a business partner, he was my best friend. Now, he had just… disappeared for three days.
I can’t find him. I don’t even know if I should.
Anyway, the work was done, so it was time to go home. I got up and as I left the cabin, my eyes fell on a woman standing near the door. I raised my eyebrow.
“Do I know you?”
She looked at me and gasped. “Ah— no, no sir. I–I was, uh, just…”
“Calm down,” I said as I sensed how scared she was.
She took a deep breath.
“Y-yeah. Uh, I was… um, appointed by Mr. Trevor Hall to assist you in your work, but—but I couldn’t gather the courage to… to introduce myself. I am sorry.”
I looked at the interesting woman with precision. She was weird — and beautiful.
“Well, I hope you have the courage now,” I said with a smile I usually don’t wear.
She looked at me and then down.
“I-I am Evie. Evie Davies.”“Well, welcome Evie. Now, why would he appoint you? I’ve never worked with a female assistant before. What’s so special in you?”
She started thinking nervously. To be honest, I was also thinking about why Trev would appoint anyone? Did he do it for me? And does she know where he is?
“I-I have no idea, boss. But I will try my best!”
I nodded. “Okay. Let’s start then. Do you know where he is now?”
“Uh, you-you mean Mr. Trevor?”“Yes.”
“I… don’t know. He never contacted me again after hiring me yesterday. He told me not to contact him either.”I nodded. So, of course, he doesn’t want to be found.
“And well, if you want to work for me, lose the stuttering.” I shrugged and said. With that, I started moving towards my car and she followed me.
When I reached my car, I had a weird idea.
It was weird for me.
“Do you know how to drive?” I asked her with a smirk.
She gulped slightly and nodded. “Yes, boss.”
“Get in.”
She gave me one last look without getting inside my very own car and got ready to drive. I sat in the passenger’s seat and looked over at her.
“I want to reach my house today. So follow the map and start.”
She nodded twice and started driving along the location given. Her driving skills were good. I don’t know why I asked her to drive — or even let her in my car — but it felt like it was good.
I’ve never had a female assistant because they would all be so vicious, but she doesn’t seem like that. So, I just want to know her more — and that means I need to spend more time with her.
I kept quiet as she drove me back home.
The car came to a slow pause and I looked that I had already arrived at my house. I came out of the car and she did, too.
“I-I am sorry, boss, I should’ve opened the door for you! I am a little clumsy, but I will improve!” She said suddenly and I smiled.
“I don’t mind that not really,” I replied.
She smiled slightly.
“How will you get to your house?” I asked and she looked around.
“I will catch a cab.”“Is it far from here?”
My concern seemed to… concern her. Not only her, though.
“A… little. But I will be fine. Thank you, boss.”
I nodded and went inside. She stood on the road and booked a cab. Weirdly enough, I had the urge to stand by the window and make sure she got a cab. So, I stood for like 7 minutes until she finally got inside one of the cabs.
Evie.
That’s a beautiful name.
What’s wrong with me? Beau— what?
I laughed at myself and my thoughts. Maybe I was going crazy from what happened with Trevor. Of course, I was going crazy.
I finalized some deals on the phone for my business and then finally had the time to sleep. Normally, I would go to bed and after switching off the lights, I’d fall asleep in a minute.
But today was different as her face and voice continued resounding for a long while. Her nervousness, her words, and her small smile.
I have known her for what, like an hour or two and I was already drowning in her thoughts.
I was about to fall asleep when suddenly I heard a loud noise coming from the living room. I got up immediately and took one of my revolvers. I took stealthy steps towards the stairs and then tried to peek downstairs, but it was too dark to see anything.
I went downstairs very quietly and turned on the lights.
I let out a shaky breath — for the first time — at the person I saw.

Damien’s POVI let out a shaky breath at the person I saw.“You?” I asked with resentment in my voice, “how did you get in?”The man laughed with pleasure and let out a fake-warm smile. “Oh, son. I still have the key to this house because… why? Oh! Because this is my fucking house!”I chuckled. “Yours? Seriously?” I took a dominating step toward him. “Do you have the papers to prove that?”“Oh, you’re so naive. Always involving lawyers, and… police… and judges… courts… These are family matters, my son.”“First of all, I am not your fucking son,” I said, “Second, this is not a family matter.”“Oh don’t worry, I don’t need your house. I came here bearing gifts!”

Damien’s POVIt was 4 AM when I returned back to my bedroom. The drinks couldn’t get me high, but I was okay with it. After all, I had to go to work.I took some rest and woke up at 6 AM, got ready by 6:30, and then reached my office by 7:30. I knew Evie must be coming soon, but I was reluctant to tell her what I wanted.Well, not wanted.It was 8:15 when she finally came up to the door and knocked. It was a transparent door, so I nodded and she came in.“Goodmorning, boss. I, um, will report to you regarding all the meetings in ten minutes. A lot of people—”I cut her in between. “I need to ask you something.”She stopped and some worry lines appeared on her forehead.“Y-yes, boss?”“If there was a demand, a not… normal demand from me, would you listen?”

Evie’s POV“Who is she?” I heard Mr. Trevor Hall say to Damien with a shocked and worried expression.“You know her. You hired her, so you don’t need to act like you don’t know her,” Damien was rather cold and I felt as if I was between two icebergs.Shit, the titanic couldn’t take one iceberg.Trevor smirked. “Well, I guess you forgot the rules. No strangers.”“She is not a stranger,” he looked at me and I grew more nervous. Suddenly, he took my hand in his, and I stared widely at our connection. “She is my wife-to-be.”That didn’t go well because Trevor squinted his eyes and looked at him with disgrace. “You’re setting up your happy after with the person I hired after you ruined mine?”“Well, life is ironic.” He shrugged. “Do

DamienIt was weird having someone with me at the house, but I guess, everything will change someday.“Which room should I take?” I heard Evie as she entered the house.“Your choice,” I said, knowing that it was impossible she would choose the one I stay in out of the sixty others.“Well.” She sighed deeply. “You live alone?”“The servants are gone, so yeah, I am alone right now,” I smirked and said in a tone that made her face red.She looked down. “I-I will find some room now.”I smiled as I watched her move toward one of the rooms.“By the way, I would suggest looking through all the rooms and choosing the one you like!” I shouted because she was a little far away.She looked back and nodded slowly. I smirked and went to my room, which was on the second floor.&nb

I trusted you and you failed our plan.”I scoffed. “You want to pin that on me?”“Yes, actually.” He got up. “I should’ve never called you.”“And I should've never accepted someone you hired.”“And I should’ve never told you about my fiancee because you are so fucking jealous of everything.”I chuckled. “What?”“Yes.

It doesn’t mean keeping them captive!” I exclaimed and sighed.He shrugged. “Should’ve thought about it before working with Lucifer.”“As if I had a choice,” I murmured.“Well go ahead but don’t bother me if Trevor finds you and kills you.”“Isn’t he your friend? Why can’t you explain to him?”The question was obviously ignored by him as he continued working on his laptop.

I failed to think what I would be going through if I do that — how hard would it be to not fall for this bastard.He sighed and took a step back. “I’ve thought about it for a while but all the plans I made seem to fail.”I looked at him.“I don’t think I have much of a choice anymore. I will set the wedding day soon. All the preparations will be done. To avoid any backlashes, the wedding will be done as a grand one.”I slowly nodded my head. “But—”

I just want to make sure I am the only one you kidnap.”He chuckled. “Wow, you’re interesting.”“I know right. And I am so damn beautiful. Ain’t I, Damien?”His gaze shifted to my lips for a second, as if reminiscing our last encounter, and then he looked away. “Yeah, beautiful chicks dig me.”I raised my eyebrow. “Why is that plural?”“Why are you jealous?” He looked at me again and I sighed.Well

Evie I was taken aback by his sweet gesture. We had been close for a while but things were getting better day by day, and my hopes were starting to touch the sky. Maybe he could actually be my soulmate. The one who’ll love me as much as I would love him. Maybe it didn’t have to be just a business marriage. He smiled. “Now, you should take a shower. I mean unless you want to stare at me for the rest of the time.” I blushed and sneaked a glance at his bare chest, blushing even more. He was so sexy, and he was actually… good. He made me feel safe and secure. Even after what happened with Lucifer and almost the betrayal, he thought he had, he trusted me again and I knew in my heart that I wouldn’t ever betray him. “No, I-I will shower.” I stepped back and with a smile, took my dress and went into the bathroom. I could feel his gaze on me all the while until I locked the door. ___________ Damien My fingers went through the pile of congratulatory cards in my hand. The wedding hadn’t

EvieI looked at him.“I mean,” his voice was suddenly deep. “How long do you think you can control yourself around me?”I took a deep breath, trying to calm my overwhelming desire to give in.“F-Forever,” I whispered and looked away. I picked up a lamp kept on a small table to avoid his gaze but he came closer and took the lamp.“So, you have no problem if I do this.”“Do what?” I was compelled to look at him.He smirked and pulled me closer. Before I could react, he kissed me and we fell onto the bed. I kissed him back and he devoured my mouth with his tongue, making my senses go wild.His kiss was like feathers. Not only soft but so beautiful, so mesmerizing… that I was completely lost.He parted and looked into my eyes. We both breathed heavily before he kissed the side of my mouth and then kissed the nape of my neck.“Damien…” I whispered.His rasped breathing was more evident than mine. He stopped kissing me and joined our foreheads — something that made me feel that his feeling
Not His Princess Chapter 13: Mrs. Wright
Damien We reached the airport in a few minutes and sat down in our private plane. I looked over to her and she was quite amazed. “What? Never seen a private plane before?” I couldn’t help but ask, smirking. She rolled her eyes before looking around again, her beautiful eyes glistening with amazement. “Not really.” “Well, you should get used to this. Now that you’re going to be Mrs. Wright.” Her eyes flickered for a second and she looked at me, thinking about something. I could share the same emotions because the same feelings erupted inside me. Mrs. Wright. My wife. I smiled to myself. Even though the consequences leading up to right now weren’t pretty, I couldn't think how this could be anything bad. I didn’t have any problems with her — and for some reason, I thought that it was only good since I might never find someone like her again. Her sarcasm.Her cute smile.Her eye-rolls.Her comebacks.Mostly, her carefree yet caring nature. Who else could fit the description of be

Evie I looked at Damien. “What?” I asked.“Nothing. Just no one has ever said that to me.” He looked away again. I sighed. Should I be happy that I was the first one to say that or be sad that so many people get fooled by his facade? “Well. So, you’re going to see your mom?”“I can’t leave you alone.” He sighed and looked at me. “So, go downstairs and sit down quietly. I have some work to do.” “I can take care of myself. You should go.”He ignored my words and left for his room anyway. I sighed and went downstairs. I remembered that I saw his password one time when he used it to open his phone. I wasn’t trying to steal his personal information — but I have the right to confirm that I am the only one he kidnaps. Ha! I smiled to myself thinking about all those moments. He is just so cute; I can’t believe that I am actually here with him. I mean… What do I have that is so special? I guess I will never know. “I’ll just work here,” I heard him say while he brought his laptop downst
