DAMONSighing, I picked up the bowl from the sink and turning off the tap, throwing the towel over my shoulder, before walking out.I would have to swap our rings to normal stones, but that would mean I have to stay away from Eli at night time.The thought was dissatisfying but as long as I still get to be with her on the long run, it's manageable.Opening the room door, I caught sight of Eli sitting up on bed, she looked lost, confused and weak.Probably wondering how she got here."You're awake." I pointed out, her gaze shifting towards me with her instantly tearing up.I quickly set down the materials in my hand and rushed over to her side."Are you alright?" I asked, my heart racing with fear.Did he erase her memory? Does she hate me?My panic eased a bit when Elisa wrapped her hand around my waist, burying her head into my chest."I'm sorry." She apologized amidst her tears."It's okay." I cooed patting her back gently, my eyes narrowing as I stared into space.Something definit
REINA I smiled the moment I got the text from that skirt chasing old man.I can't believe he actually got the guts to defy the Gilbert's family.Running away and announcing the divorce online, such cowardice."I need to go back to my apartment to get that document." Derrick said making me sigh.Why must men always be so whiny? Only few are matured and dignified just like Damon.The rest? Honestly disgusting and pathetic."You think I don't know that? Damon is probably looking for you everywhere right now, going back to your place at this point would be such a dumb move."I have to explain everything like abc to a child."It's all that bitch's fault." Derrick muttered, sinking into the couch and undoing his tie, revealing his well toned chest.His hand traced his bandaged head and a sigh followed again.My eyes followed his every movement with intrigue.I should have made him get that plastic surgery, it now made sense to me why Elisa who was head over heels in love with Damon in the
DERRICKThis Reina bitch was actually more simple than I thought.Turns out her target was Damon all along.I wonder what both she and Elisa sees in that man though.Apart from his money, he was nothing more, he doesn't even have the looks in the bag for him.He was just like every other sapiens that exists.When I was done with her, I stood up and left here there on the couch heading to go take a shower."Fucking Elisa." I cursed, my hand slamming against the wall in anger.If not for her being so stubborn I won't have a bandage wrapped around my head.Sighing, I dipped my body into the bathtub.A memory replaying in my head.********"Hey." I greeted softly, approaching the girl that sat under the cherry blossom tree, with a book in her hand, tears silently streaming down her cheeks."Are you okay?" I inquired feeling a certain pull towards her.At first she refused to glance at me, and instead wiped her tears."I'm fine." She stated in a calm yet cold voice, the wind whooshing, sen
ELISA"Baby." Mom cried out for me, coming into the room and hugging me tightly.I threw Damon a glance but he just adjusted his glass frame on his nose and looked elsewhere.Snitch "Are you alright?" Mom asked looking all over my body for a supposed injury or something.This woman, just too dramatic."I'm fine mom, if not for Damon insisting on my bedrest I would have been up since yesterday."I rolled my eyes trying to wiggle out of her grip."Well it's a good thing he is insisting, I know you would hurry back to work the moment you're mobile."My father casually strolled in holding his staff as his right hand adjusted his monocle."I got that from you." I shot at him.He was the one that thought me not to be a weakling and also learn to tough things out no matter what."You shouldn't worry your mother, you were in bed for 5 days and the moment you wake up you want to work."It was obvious why he was mad, I made his wife worry, such a simp."Whatever." I tsked, folding my arms and
ELISA"She's not." Damon answered coolly, forcing the spoon into my mouth before I could speak."Ah, my bad, it seems I might have overstepped." Mom slapped her mouth looking sincerely apologetic.She must have just said her inner thoughts directly."It's nothing, we just don't plan on having children for now." Damon responded, shoving another spoonful into my mouth.I swallowed it then glared at him, I know he didn't want me to speak or whatever but wasn't this a bit excessive?A disappointed sound left my mother's mouth as she played around with her food making my heart tighten a bit.She wants a grandchild huh?"It's left for them to decide when Rosa." My dad butted in stunning me.To think he would disagree with something my mother said.Guess the old man still cared for me after all.My heart warmed up, the original knot that was formed slowly loosened up as I pushed the thoughts of children to the back of my mind."So dad, how is retirement life treating you?" I asked instead, s
ELISAAfter a week, I was finally back to working, though not full hours like I used to.Whenever it was noon, Damon would come pick me up and we would head over to a restaurant for lunch before he drops me back at home then head straight to the office."Bye." I waved at Damon as he drove out of the compound, my smile dropping the moment he was out of sight.It's been more than 2 weeks since that incident and yet I couldn't manage to find Reina or Derrick.It was like the trace of their existence has been wiped off from earth.Waiting for about 30 minutes, I went into the room and pulled out a black jeans, a sleeveless black top and a leather jacket."Time to visit the dear doctor." I stated, biting my lips with a sigh.I do not wish to go behind Damon's back like this but I really wanted to solve this by myself.Slipping into the get up, I rummaged through my wardrobe and picked out the blonde wig I purchased few days ago.I wore it and did some minimal make-up before putting on a fa
ELISA"I have no idea what you're talking about." Simpson stuttered causing me to click my tongue, shaking my head sadly."To be honest, you were a good ally, well that was then, but now...." I dragged my words watching him shake underneath my piercing gaze."I swear I have no idea." He pleaded moving backwards."You have no idea, but I have evidence right here that you received payment twice from a foreign client, huge sums at that."I pulled out some papers from my pocket and waved it in front of him, I made my investigation well enough."It was another client." He stuttered once more making me sigh."See, I hate when people lie to me, because it stresses me out, I have to do a lot of brain work to figure out what the truth is.""I'm saying the truth." Simpson hurriedly interjected but I just chuckled."The Gilbert's have sponsored all your research singlehandedly for years and suddenly a mysterious client appears."I paused and gripped him by the collar, forcing him to look me dire
DAMONI know Elisa might think I was overreacting but knowing what Derrick was capable of through the memories of our past lives, I sincerely don't want anything to happen to her.I wasn't able to protect her and died before I could even make a move, so this time around I need to have her around me all the time, and if she's not within my reach, she should be somewhere safe.Knowing my darling wife, I had to go during lunch to pick her up then drop her at home.It caused a lot of work to pile up but it was worth it, Eli may want to find Derrick and Reina but there was no way she was risking work.The only period she would have the time to sneak off was during lunch, hence why I chose that time.Well, I thought that was that, until I got a text message telling me that she went off to meet up with Derrick.At first I didn't want to believe it because I trusted Eli, she won't make such a dumb decision.But I also knew her.Sighing, I opened another tab in my laptop and checked the CCTV f

DAMONThat bastard, Derrick, should thank his stars Elisa had already knocked him out when I came in.Seeing her disheveled state, my heart clenched tightly, how scared she must have been?Since the pest was refusing to die normally, I'll make sure to squash it myself.Putting Elisa as a priority, I gently picked her up and walked out the hotel.The drive home was not an easy one as she was all over me, making my control wear thin.I reached the point I just started chanting pi numbers in my head just to keep sane."Eli pleaseeee." I pleaded the moment she reached into my chest.It's not like I don't want her, goodness no, I want her more than anything in this world, but I don't want our first time together to be under the influence of a drug.What if she regrets it later?No, I must persevere and push forward.Soon, the doctor came and gave Eli some drugs and she dozed off."She should be awake in the next three hours." He stated before leaving me.I stared at Eli's bruised face, ang
