2021-08-02 07:21:59"What...?" Mystique could barely believe her ear, was this man asking her to move in with him?, Was this a nightmare or what? because this couldn't probably be a dream.
What was going through his head to make him request, no demand is the right order. What was going through his order for him to utter just words.
"You heard me, you are moving in with me as soon as you are discharged" Damien spoke as he kept his tone light and calm.
Mystique stared at the man, she didn't know if she should cry and be happy with the news, everything was so overwhelming. "As what exactly?" She wanted to be sure of where he stood in his life, was she just his baby mama or something more than that.
Because Mystique would not live with a man for such a silly reason but it also meant she wanted a relationship with him...did she?
No, Mystique shook her head, she shouldn't be thinking that. For a

"What are you doing here Theo?" Damien's cold voice asked, sending a chilling feeling down the spines of those present in the room. Theo smirked. "Is that the way to greet your brother, little Bobo" Mystique nearly laughed out loud at the nickname. Little Bobo? No grown man would love to be addressed that way. "Don't call me that!" Damien clenched his teeth, he took slow breaths to calm his rising temper. He couldn't allow Mystique to see him in that state. "And you didn't answer my question" his frosty eyes met the warmer ones of his brother. "Your wife is admitted to the hospital I work in, I can't ignore that. I have to greet my sister-in-law. Now, am I not allowed little Bobo" Theo continued his tease, wanting to see what he would do in the presence of his beloved wife. It was fun teasing this soul most of the time, but his temper seemed higher and bigger than his e

She rubbed her palms together trying to soothe the uneasiness she was feeling. Who said it would be easy...? There she was, sitting on one of the couches in Damien's condo while the owner went to the bedroom to make a phone call. As soon as she was discharged, Damien rushed them out of the hospital, towards his condo where she would be living with the man. Mystique scanned around the apartment, it looked executive and orderly, fit for a man his status, it had a room, a large living room, and a kitchen. Seemed like Damien didn't like to live in his mansion, maybe he didn't like living alone but that house looked like a family one though she never saw any photos or planting while working there. But now that she thought of it, one of the rooms remained locked, she remembered how she was instructed never to go where near it. Luckily, she wasn't that curious to s

Standing in front of the door she was more than familiar with, she stretched her hand out and knocked loudly on the door. Knowing Bell, she was probably still snoring at such time in the morning. But Mystique wouldn’t blame the lady, she now was working hard to make ends meet and now that she had moved out, Bell would have a hard time trying to pay the rent all by herself. Mystique lowered her gaze suddenly feeling melancholic at thought of burdening her friend. She sighed overthrown but, her streams of thoughts were interrupted when the door unclasped to reveal a wretched and half-asleep Bell, with messy hair and an oversized shirt that was below her thighs. “What!” Bell snarled at her friend who had a blank face. She rolled her eyes and went back inside, leaving Mystique stagnated at the door. It wasn’t like She needed an invite anyway. Mystique shook her head and followed after her friend but She fou

"What would you like to eat, Mystique?" Damien asked the other lady sitting beside her friend who tagged along even when the grim man showed her a sour face, he had no choice to take her alone as they now sat together in a fancy restaurant. "Whoa Mr. Martinez, all these food costs more than my allowance for a month" Bell answered, her gaze glued on the menu. Damien rolled his eyes, he was asking Mystique, not the other man. "Mystique?" He grilled as he called over a male waiter. "Are you ready to order?" The waiter asked, readying his notebook as his gaze traveled around the table till it landed on Mystique and it stayed there, his throat making a gulping sound as he took in the beauty of the lady that was glowing before his eyes. Mystique shook her head before lifting her gaze only to be met with the intense stare of the serving-man. He almost looked like he was drooling. M

"Frasier?" Mystique stared gapely at one of her worse nightmares while in college. The man name Frasier only smirked seeing the other's shocked demeanor "Hey babe, what are you doing here?" he asked in a silly voice, annoying the crap out of Mystique with his presence as she frowned instead. After so many years, the bastard still looked the same. Dark-colored eyes, matching his dark hair, tan skill, and a stupid smirk that Mystique loathed so much. she eyed him, feeling nauseated. Frasier was one of the few mistakes Mystique made while in college. They attended the same college together where one could say they dated. Mystique only went out with the asshole because she wanted to be among the crowd but it ended badly for her when she found out the idiot only wanted to get between her legs. That night, Frasier invited her out to a club to hang out with his friends. That was the first time Mystique e

Mystique stared hellaciously at the man who had a stolid expression as he worked on patching Mystique's wounded arm as they were now in the kitchen where, she was sitting on the counter, a first aid box opened widely beside her. Unanswered questions sprinted through her head as her eyebrows narrowed in disconcertment. The little melodrama that took place earlier was still fresh in her brain but how could she forget such a chronicle play in just a few seconds. she continued to stare unblinkingly at Damien, who unremitted what he was doing. Mystique shifted her gaze away as she blinked a few times. Should she ask, she had a right to ask right?, Would Damien snap at her for being nosy. Mystique couldn't stop reckoning till she finally came to a decision. "Damien..." Damien interposed. "She's my aunt, turned stepmom. My dad married her a week after my mom's deat

Stimulating the next morning, Mystique tried to stretch only to ascertain an arm snaked tightly around her waist, making it arduous for her to move her body. Opening her eyes slowly, the first thing that came into sight was the snoozing face of Damien Martinez, who had his arms encircled securely around her while Mystique had her head rested against his unclothed chest, listening to his tranquilized heartbeats. Mystique beamed as she recalled the past events as she gazed exuberantly at the grim man a blurry vision with her glasses. She couldn't explain the feeling of adrenaline that rushed through her body like a wave. Shifting her body forward slowly, she pecked Damien's cheek lightly, her cheek turning like that of crimson as she went back to her position, resting her head against Damien's chest, where it rightfully belonged enjoying the smallest sensation of warmth. "I want a future with you too" she whispered. As she recalled the lov

Reaching the highest floor in the building, Mystique made her way out from the elevator with a little lunch box in hand. Stepping into the floor, Mystique was surprised to find nothing in sight, not even a secretary's table but a door that must lead to the CEOs office. With a shrug, she headed towards the door and knocked. A few seconds later, the door opened to reveal a lady in a short mini skirt and a blouse that was showing too much cleavage. Mystique gazed questioningly at her but the lady was busy scanning her from head to toe before rolling her eyes. She held the door opened and instructed Mystique to enter rudely. Paying no mind to her childish behavior, Mystique stepped in but instead of a CEO's office, she was met with another hallway but this time, a secretary's table was outside a glass door. The lady went behind her desk and sat down. "What can I do for you?" She continued with her infantile manners. My

Unconsciously she smiled as a warm sensation raced through her. Still, with her eyes closed, she held the soft pillow tightly but instead of softness, she was met with a hard yet soft and warm surface.Since when did her pillow become this hard yet so warm and comfortable. Unconsciously, her hands moved on their own, tracing everywhere just to make sure it was her pillow."Keep touching me and you'll regret it" a deep husky voice rang in her ears and her eyes jerk opened and instantly met the orbs of her husband of almost a year now.Mystique consciously smiled as she moved closer to that warmth that was raging from the other person. "Good morning" she uttered in a low soft tone as she slowly shut her eyes but the other person didn't buy it as he suddenly hovered over her which made Mystique open her eyes.

She immediately placed a hand over her chest and clenched tightly."Are you alright?" Damien asked worriedly taking a step forward but Mystique held her palm out, stopping him on his tracks."Shut up, you are just another one of my nightmares, just my imagination again" she uttered to herself with her eyes shut tightly."But Mama, you are not dreaming," Dean said as he ran to Damien, slipping through her hands who tried to catch him."Dean, come back here.

"Dean, who is at the door!?" Mystique's loud voice came from the inside."Daddy?!" The young child passed with uncertainty but when the man outside his doorstep lifted his head and gazed into his eyes that bared so much familiarity, Little Dean's heartbeat fastly beneath his chest and he slammed the door shut.Mystique came out from the kitchen with a towel wiping her hands clean to find her son standing there with his back pressed against the door, his hand clenched tightly on his chest while he stared blankly as if he had just encountered a ghost outside his doorstep."Dean, what is it, who is at the door?" Mystique asked worriedly seeing her son's actions as she advanced."He's at the door!" The young boy muttered to himself."Who is at door?" Mystique grilled again as she was now standing in front of him."Daddy" The boy revealed in a whisper and Mystique

Through the years, everything the Miller's owned had been transferred to Mystique and Damien's wealth and his family wealth had also be transferred to her name, one could say she was bathing with money but being unfit to look after two companies, Archer and Harriet' because the temporary owners till Mystique was ready to take responsibility which would take a whole lifetime. "I'm surviving Harriet" Mystique replied after a few seconds of silence. Harriet sighed and threw her hands up in the air in frustration. "Jesus Mystique, you are a lost case!" Silently, Mystique moved around with the baby, and then, Bell, V, Liam, and Hikaru walked in and Mystique's eyes immediately met the sorrowful ones of Bell who was another lost case, another lost soul as Theo also never made it out from that fire.

While the five men carried Archer, Harriet, Ichabod, and V on their backs and ran out, Bell and Hikaru struggled to pull Mystique away from Damien's cold body but she held him even more tightly, refusing to let go, wanting to join him as she wept and wailed to go with her lover.Finally being able to take hold of himself, Liam joined them as they were finally able to pull her away and dragged her out from sight while her cries got louder and louder by the minute.But Theo remained as he stood quietly in front of his mother before squatting down to her level as she laid on the floor struggling to breathe as she pants while her entire right arm was gone.She gazed up at him, her breathing began to come out slowly as her eyes suddenly softened at the sight of her son, her eyes showing an emotion he had never seen in his entire existence, something she lacked for so many years, the affection that only a mother could di

She giggled internally.Damien unflinchingly stared at his once hobnobber directly into his eyes, trying to make out if this was one of those frivolous escapades they typically played at the last minute whenever their mission didn't go as planned but as he gazed intensively, he found nothing as he only saw lividity, contrition, execration, and anguish.Damien sighed inwardly as he realized how devitalizing this game was but he was determined to end it with or without Benvolio."Goodbye, Damien!" He enunciated as he slowly pulled the trigger when halted his movements when an obstreperous voice ejaculated."STOP!!" A voice unanticipatedly exclaimed and they turned in a time as Mystique ran and stood beside Damien

The more listened, the more her eyes felt like they wanted to pop out from her socket, the more her heart pound loudly beneath her chest, the more thousands of layers formed and doubled in his stomach. She gulped painfully but the lump that had formed in her throat refused to be gulped down and finally the recording came to an end and she was immediately upon her feet, forgetting that fact that she was still in her sleeping pajamas as she dashed for the door but Bell immediately caught her wrist, preventing her from escaping."Let me go Bell. It's a trap, she's gonna kill him" she said helplessly as her eyes sparkled with tears wanting to stream down her face so badly."He knows that but judging from the map, they had everything planned out" Bell assured him but Mystique shook her head as she didn't feel assured one bit.Finally, a single teardrop slipped out from his eyes.
