SARAH'S POVImmediately after Myles left, the whole atmosphere turned awkward for me. I was not sure of what to do next. The only plan in my head at the moment was to scurry into the bedroom. As I dragged my feet out of the living room, I heard him say, "Where do you think you are going?" I was dumbfounded. I did not have a reply 'cause what kind of question was that?We eventually made eye contact and I noticed that he was relaxed, way more than I was. "I don't get to eat dinner? I'm hungry." He sulked and I wondered if this was the man that looked fiercely angry earlier."Uh...sure. I..I prepared something." I stuttered and hurried to the kitchen area to dish out his meal. I placed it on the dining table and grabbed a bottle of water and a cup from the fridge. After it was set, I made an attempt to go to the room but he stopped me."I have to eat alone? Now, that's cruel." He whined again and I was really confused on what was going on."I've eaten, actually." I said, defending my
DAMON'S POV My desire for her was not ordinary. No other woman could make me feel the same way. I fell asleep after I had stroked her to sleep. And I was the first to wake up again. Waking up next to the woman I really loved was a great and divine blessing. The joy in seeing an angelic face the moment I open my eyes from sleep was on a different level. I had always said it and I will always say it, that Sarah is different. After staying in bed for a while, I got out and washed up, then went ahead to prepare breakfast.I sensed her presence as I prepared the meal. Before I could turn around, she hugged me from behind. "Babe, good morning." She mumbled tiredly and I smiled. "You should still be resting in bed." I said and she tool her hands off me to find a seat. "I don't want to." She stated firmly and there was silence for a while, then she spoke again. "Damon, let's get married." She proposed and I was shocked. Did I hear right? I suspended what I was doing and turned around to
SARAH'S POVI reluctantly dressed up in preparation for the group study. Left to me, I would stay back at home to study but since it was mandatory stuff, I had no choice.The location they picked was an unpopular coffee shop in the quieter part of the city. I guess they were really interested in studying.I made it to the location, after having a hard time finding it. Nobody cared anyway and they had already even started before I got there. There, I was trying to justify my lateness but they were not interested in listening. I felt insulted but I had to keep calm. Causing trouble was the least I wanted to do.We were all seated round a big wooden table, with cups of coffee for everyone. I was the only one who was ousted and nobody still cared. Anyways, I ordered it myself as I brought out my studying materials.They were all still reading textbooks but I did something different, since no one would carry me along. I brought out my Macbook and started it, waiting patiently to see the mo
DAMON'S POV "Sarah, let's get married tomorrow." I said to her and there was a sound of glass chattering. I looked in the direction the sound came from and I wa shocked to see Sarah's friend, Kylie.My gaze shifted to Sarah. "What is going on?" "Uhm..did you not get my text? Something came up so she will be staying the night." She replied.I thought it thoroughly and turned to Kylie."It's good you are here. Could you find a way to pick out and buy Sarah a wedding dress before tomorrow? And other accessories. I'll take care of the wedding rings.""Wait wait wait. What is going on here?" Kylie asked. I knew what I was saying sounded crazy but then I was serious about it. Sarah too was staring at me like she was looking like a ghost. I was going to get married to her and nothing would happen. "What is going on is that we are getting married tomorrow, okay? I need your help." I said to her before turning to my woman."We can do it, right?" I asked for confirmation and she nodded her
SARAH'S POVEven though it was a rushed wedding, my joy knew no bounds when we were exchanging our vows. I could not believe I would spend the rest of my life with this man? It was a future I looked forward to. And when he slipped the shiny ring on my finger, my heart leapt. I could see the sincerity in him. The claim was that we are getting married so he could protect me, but in actual sense, the foundation of this marriage was love.It all happened too fast and our supposed honeymoon should be different. So I stood my ground firmly, refusing to go to the hotel. Though it was a luxurious place, I was not sure if it would be special. So I just wanted us to take our time. I had priorities too - my exams.After studying throughout the rest of the day, I finally stepped out of the study to join them in planning the night party we would be having. Damon had a grown throughout, he was sulking and he looked so cute.At some point, I summoned him into the room to have a brief talk with him.
*SARAH*We were on our way back to Kimberley Royal Palace around 2 AM. The drive was smoothly going well. It was not Damon behind the wheel this time around though, it was Myles. Then I was at the back seat with Kylie, the guys took the front seats.I was so exhausted and all my body just sought for was a bed. I needed to rest. Even my bones ached."I think we are being tailed." I heard Myles say and my sleepy eyes widened out."What?" Kylie and I exclaimed at the same time."They are probably random robbers. Those rats. You can handle them, right?" Damon asked of Myles and he nodded. All of a sudden, our car's speed increased, making screeching sounds.The other car followed suit also. "Hold on, I think I..." Kylie's voice trailed off and she watched the car that tailed us."What is it?" I urged her to speak."Those are my father's men. They are coming for me." She lamented."No no no, I don't want to go back to that house, Sarah. Not now." She cried and I pulled her closer to hug h
*DAMON*Chloe had reported in to be sick. And according to the email she sent to me, it was quite serious. Would it not be humane to go see how she was doing? I was reluctant at first, knowing fully well what had transpired between me and her father but even at that, she was my secretary.I had to bring in someone else as a substitute for her. I had so much to do on my desk and an assistant was needed, not wanted. I could not make coffee for myself while reviewing, signing, brainstorming and striving hard to keep things in place. I needed someone to organize and announce my schedule too.After the day's work, I decided to drop by at their family house before heading home. After all, I had no grudges on them or anything.I was almost at their residence when I received Astrid's call. "Come over to the house. Your wife is here." I arrived at her place with questions on how she got there, only to learn that she was almost abducted. "Who dared to do such?" I seethed. Soon, I was left
DAMON'S POVI was at the office, on a call with Charles. "Nolan is going berserk about his brother's issue. I think he is catching on to the fact that we don't have his brother." He reported. I dropped my pen and sighed. I saw it coming. The boy can't be kept under me forever. "Charles, try to put him together. He must not confirm the fact that we don't have his brother.""But he is dead, is he not?" Charles insisted."Nothing is sure for now. Keep Nolan with you, I will make sure to find him in a few days.""Alright sir--""What are you talking about...?" I heard a different voice ask, and I guessed it was Nolan. Finally caught! "I just asked a question! My brother is dead? You told me he was alive!" Nolan yelled over the phone."Calm down." I cooed but he was not taking it.Just then, Myles walked into my office. I was gesturing to him to hold on so I could sort out things with Nolan but he seemed impatient."I have found him." He uttered."Who?" I raised a brow, diverting most
SARAH'S POV He eventually reached out to me. My joy knew no bounds the day I received the letter from my father that I should come back to the pack. The content was not what made me happy but the fact that he summoned slm the courage to reach me. Damon was skeptical about it though. "Babe, are you sure you want to do this?" I nodded my head. "I am more than sure. I have been waiting for this day, Damon and you know it. Nothing holds me back any longer. And I won't be going along, we are going together." I said to him. He said nothing more about it and just meekly agreed. "Your wish is my command." He said and I laughed. I wanted to go see him at the earliest, so we decided to go the next day. I prepared the kids for the trip too. "Mum, where are we going?" They both asked and I smiled."To your grandpa's place," I replied simply, not clarifying things any further. We set out on the journey with a convoy. A trail of cars before and behind us.We got to the red ravens pack in on
SARAH'S POV"Archie! Alma! It is time for breakfast." I announced. The kids came running down the stairs and I could not help but worry about them."Stop running or you will get yourself injured!" I cautioned but they still did not listen to me."These kids will be the end of me," I muttered under my breath as I served their meals on the dining table."Remember your table manners, no talking," I said to them and they nodded. "Now dig in.""But mum, where is dad?" Alma asked. She just had to ask after we had agreed that no one was talking."Your dad is busy, but he will soon be here," I said to her. Then I thought of going to check up on him. He had been in his study ever since."Babe." I reached out when I got to the study. "Is everything going well? It is time to eat." "I don't think I will join you guys for breakfast. I have to code this thing before the deadline." He said."What is that? I could help." I offered but he turned me down. Then I frowned."Okay, I am sorry but I would
DAMON'S POVI lost it when I received the call from Robert. I left everything I was doing and rushed down to the hospital. I drove like a madman. Jones assured me that she was fine and would not die, but I was still not at peace. She was yet to wake up after an urgent surgery so I went to Kimberley Royals with Myles.We looked into the CCTV to find out everything that happened. The police were involved already also. Chloe's arrest was warranted. I could have done worse to punish her for doing that to Sarah but I was still being lenient. Maybe it was because she had worked with me for long or because she was a woman. I never hurt women brutally. It was not in my nature.I let the cops take over and in no time, she was charged to court. I had the best prosecutors take over the case to make sure she went to jail.Victor Martin, her father requested to see me but I declined. He obviously wanted to talked about his daughter. If he can't keep his kids under control, then he quit being a fa
*SARAH'S POVWe were on a break so I was just home, trying to figure things out. I had Robert go on an errand so I was the only one at the apartment.I was so bored. Kylie had issues to sort out with her family so she could not come over. Then I tried watching some Hollywood movies to keep myself busy while I munched on popcorn.Suddenly, the door bell rang. "Oh finally!" I exclaimed and went to the door to get Robert. But then I got shocked after seeing a different face."Delivery!" The person announced. The door was just opened a bit and the delivery man had a face cap on. "I think you got the wrong address." I said to him and tried to close the door.But then he set his foot between the door and the doorframe, making it impossible for me to close the door. "Excuse me, what are you doing--"My words were cut off when he suddenly pushed the door, opened it fully and entered."Who are you?" I shouted and he hushed me.Then he brought out a pocket knife. So this was how it is going
*SARAH'S POVI was back at that place, Astrid's mansion. The house looked ancient now that I was seeing it in broad daylight but it still looked so grand.A lady came out and ushered me into the house then I watched Astrid walk down the stairs in black regalia.As soon as she got to me, she bowed her head and said her greeting. I did the same. "Uh..can you stop doing that? You can just call me by my name, Sarah." I said to her 'cause it made me so uncomfortable.She agreed and then smiled. "Have you eaten? Let's have breakfast together." We had a wonderful meal and she got to business over a cup of tea meant for easy digestion."I heard you wanted to see me." She started."Yes. I would like to look into my past life." I said to her. She did not expect that but I said it anyway."You want to look into your past life? Through hypnosis? Could I ask why?"I felt like she knew the answers already but I still answered her."A lot is going on with me. I feel like I don't know myself as I k
*SARAH'S POVI found out Chloe was the one who reached out to the web master and gave them false information. So she painted herself as the victim and I was the antagonist.I carried out the investigation with Robert and Kylie and I swear, we could make a great team. "So what will you do about it?" Kylie asked and I sat back on the sofa."I don't know yet. I don't think I need to get back at her. I will just have the post taken down on blogs and that is all." I replied and she shook her head pitifully."You are way too calm. Taking down the posts won't solve it. What about your ruined reputation? I think it is best we involve Mr Damon in this or I personally will take it upon myself." She threatened."Okay. Maybe a little lesson would do. What can we do to her?" I asked for suggestions."I have many of them in my head. Should I print you a list?" Kylie said dramatically.Then I turned to Robert. "Say something." I urged but he only bowed his head as a gesture, telling me indirectly
DAMON'S POVIt was time for Takumi to return to his country. The whole inheritance and family issue had been solved. The Interpol had stopped looking for him also. I headed first to the villa where he was and it took hours to get there. We were supposed to have breakfast together for one last time.I got to the villa on time because I had set out so early. We discussed a few things over breakfast and he expressed his gratitude. He was always willing to fully invest in the Pinnacle World entertainment at Sichuan. I laughed inwardly when he mentioned it."Really?" I asked in Japanese and he confirmed it."Yes. And if there is anything you need my help with in the future, do not hesitate to let me know." He said as he took the last bite from his meal. I rounded up too, when I saw that he was done eating."A charter is heading over to pick you up and take you to the airport." I said to him and he smiled. "I really appreciate this, Mr Mackay."I smiled back at him. "It is my pleasure."T
*SARAH'S POVI was preparing for the academy when I heard the door bell ring. Damon was off to work so I wondered who it was. I had checked on the mini monitor but I saw an unfamiliar face.I walked down to the door and unlocked it, then opened it ajar. "Good morning, Milady." he greeted. I was surprised. A well-built, hefty and fine looking man was at my door early in the morning and even addressed me as 'Milady'."And who may you be?" I asked before anything else."I'm Robert, your new bodyguard." He introduced. And then I remembered Damon had actually discussed it with me before he left."Oh. I'm so sorry. Please come in." Then, I opened the door fully for him to come in. "Would you like to have some breakfast?" I proposed and he shook his head immediately."Okay...you can have your seat then." I said but he refused to comply."I would love to remain like this, Milady." He replied.Here we go again with this 'Milady' thing, it is not like I was a queen or anything. I did not a
