"Daddy?" She called out softly. Her eyes turned red once more and she asked, "Are you my daddy?"

'Daddy?'

Damien was puzzled.

Was the child looking for her father? Did he look like her daddy? Who was her father?

Although he had no idea whose daughter she was, he desperately wanted to say 'yes' to her question.

Damien bent over and tousled her hair. With a small smile , he said, "Are you looking for daddy?"

Tasha nodded and began to cry harder. Her small body shook as she sobbed. She reached for Damien's face with her chubby little hands. "Daddy... You're... Daddy?"

Damien was at a loss for words.

He didn't know what to say to the child so he stretched out his hand and wiped her tears. "Don't cry, beautiful baby. Shhh."

"Daddy..." Tasha wailed harder, large droplets of tears rolling down her eyes and it made Damien feel helpless and almost at the verge of tears.

Tasha couldn't stop crying, she finally had a father. Now, she knows she didn't fall from the sky in a drop of rain like her

    Okay, Eleanor thought, that was not expected.How dad looks, usual question. All about him, nope, new one.Eleanor thought for a while. As she closed her eyes, she let the events of that night flood her mind. As the memories played like tapes in her eyes, she stroked his hair."You know," she began, having Nathan's undivided attention, "he had black hair just like yours.""Like mine?" Nathan asked with eyes that twinkled. It was delightful to hear his father had black hair just like his.Eleanor nodded and continued. "You are just like him, only, you're a boy and he's a man. I saw him smile once.""How was it?""It was simply captivating, like Tasha's. He was tall and strong. Like a macho man." She chuckled.Nathan was quiet as he stared at the black polka dots on the blue duvet for a long time before finally looking up. His lips moved but no words came out. His thoughts were a jumbled mess and he wondered if he should tell her what he saw. After a long while, he decided against it.

    The sun was just starting to set on the West and it was a beautiful sight to behold. Its golden rays spread like a large star shinning at the end of the horizon. Even the cars hurried down the road as everyone tried to get home in time for dinner. It's been two long - hectic and boring - weeks and Damien had been busier than usual. Having to make up for the time he spent in the villa, his schedule was beyond tight.Sitting on the couch in the living room, before his television with a bottle of diet soda in his hand, he kept sighing. This was his life: lonely, boring, and pathetic. No one needed to tell him how sad and empty his life was.For two hours, Damien sat before the television set, barely watching a thing as he was lost in the whirlpool of his secrets.Maybe he should start letting them out, he thought and hissed at the idea. Secrets were meant to be personal and private."But, she's a secret I can't keep forever." He muttered, placing the bottle on the table he picked his ke

His voice was low and trembled lightly.The woman on the mat in a corner of the room turned to face him. Her head tilted to the side and she scrutinized Damien very well.Damien smiled at her reaction. He knew she wouldn't recognize him -she never did. Still, he came every week to see her with hopes that she would one day recognize him."I brought flowers." He said, holding the lilies with both hands before him. He grinned awkwardly and scratched the back of his neck."Actually, I plucked them at the foot of the hill since no flower shops would be open now."The woman named Mirabella, smiled and patted the mat next to her. Damien didn't hesitate and hurriedly took a seat besides her after placing the lilies in a glass of water."Mother Mary said you're getting back." He said and she nodded, her eyes squin

    Chapter 41… Found OutThe alarm blared at six a.m. Eleanor lifted a hand sleepily to turn off the ear piercing cry of the clock. All she wanted to do was to lay in bed -cuddled up by the warm covers- all day.Yesterday, she had to deal with a slight fever and thought it to be the effect of stress. So, she had ignored it. At least it was simply a fever until night came and she was struck by a splitting headache and she couldn't sleep. All she did to lessen the pain seemed abortive until she had to resort to the last option -grandma Cindy's extra strong pain killers. And instead of the usual prescribed one pill, she had opted for two. Only then did she feel better and was able to close her eyes in sleep.Groaning, she sat up and let her eyes adjust to the little light that was coming in from the window. Eleanor could already tell it wouldn't be sunny today. It was six and the sun was still hidden. Besides, the weather was starting to change though slowly. But, sure.She stretched her

Anyone would be. He didn't even know what to say to her. As far as he knew, El already had a way to deal with the culprit so, he could only five her a listening ear.Eleanor hissed again and place a foot on the ground to stop the chair from moving. She looked up at Jonathan and cocked her head to the side.Jonathan frowned. "What is it?""I was wondering…" she began.Jonathan hissed. "Wondering what, El?""If I know you well - and I do - whatever it is you are thinking is not good." He quickly added to hear her let a throaty chuckle."You know?" She asked.Jonathan sneered. "Like I just met you today, hmph!""But," his face became serious once more as he stood up and went to sit on the desk before her. "W

"Maybe""Are you sure about this?" Jonathan asked before she could reach the door. "I mean, I've always trusted anything you do but-""Then don't start doubting now." Eleanor replied dryly and left.Jonathan watched the door close with a soft thud. He was very sure that Eleanor must have lost her mind. With a sigh, he stood up and headed to the bar of the house and picked himself a bottle of whiskey.*****Eleanor drove around the bustling streets of New York City for hours with no destination in mind. This was something she did when she was at crossroads.The sun had long settled when she drove down a very bright alley that looked familiar. As she drove down the road at a very slow pace, she saw the building in one corner.'Castle Of Wine'It read in bold letters that illuminated with colour

He only breathed out when he felt her heart rate and heard her snoring."Is she okay, sir?" Andy asked, shaking at the side.Damien nodded.He pulled out his wallet and fetched some money, not minding how much it was and placed on the table before Andy."That should be enough" Andy nodded, still not convinced that Eleanor was alive."She's alive, right?" He asked again.Damien chuckled. He grabbed Andy's index finger and place it on Eleanor's pulse to feel her pulse. "Felt it?"Andy nodded and breathed in relief. Damien picked Eleanor up bridal style and turned to Andy."I'll take her home. Could you help me with her bag?"Andy nodded and grabbed the bag before following Damien up to his car."I'm sure her car is here somewhere, what would be done about it?"

Was it who he was or where he was all this time?Somehow, she had always known that she was not just looking for him for the sake of the kids and right now, the tugs in her chest seemed to be confirming it"I know you have a lot of questions," Damien said calmly, his expression turning calm, placid and plain. "I do too. But, before that, I would like to invite you for breakfast."Eleanor opened her mouth to refuse but Damien beat her to eat."Don't worry, this is my home and I can assure you that you are safe. We can discuss and I'll answer every of your questions over breakfast. Also, you get to tell me about the kids… my kids… our kids"Eleanor froze in shock. He already knew of the kids?How did he know?Who informed him?She swallowed past the lump in her throat and nodded. It might just help that he already knew.Damien smiled.

    Eleanor's eyes widened at Damien's suggestion. Disbelief flickered across her face. "Remarried? No, that can't be. Mirabella never mentioned anything about remarrying, and we have no reason to think so."Damien leaned back in his chair, crossing his arms in contemplation. "Well, it's unusual for someone to go by different names within the same family. Could there be something we're missing?"Eleanor shook her head. "Sienna is in her twenties, while Eliora would be the same age as myself since she is my twin."Damien agreed. "Does that mean Sienna is a relative of yours, then?" he inquired thoughtfully.Eleanor shrugged. "That's the only logical explanation for the moment," she rasped out. "Besides, judging by the story Mirabella told us, the man must have loved my mother too much to remarry," she added with a sigh."Or, she is adopted," Eddy, who had been quiet, suddenly chimed in, causing the duo to turn to him."What do you mean?" asked Eleanor, confusedly.Eddy crossed his arms ove

    Eddy, still trembling, pulled out the letter and extended it toward Antonio, who took it with a cursory gaze directed at Eddy."Yes, Mr. Huxton," Eddy stammered. "I have a letter for you. It's important, and I was instructed to deliver it personally."Antonio's gaze traveled between the letter and Eddy. Something about Eddy did not sit right with him. Antonio thought that he had met Eddy before but he could not remember where."Who sent you?" He asked, slowly tearing open the letter."Z-zara Anderson-Red, sir," Eddy answered.Antonio's head whipped up to Eddy's face quickly. There was shock clearly etched on it as his eyes widened."The Andersons?" He muttered disbelievingly and Eddy nodded. Antonio quickly pointed to the couch. "Please, sit."Eddy nodded and sat, although he still did not feel comfortable.To Sienna, Antonio said, "Go, get our guest something to drink! Hurry!"Sienna stood up and left. As she made her way to the kitchen, she kept trying to remember where she had hear

For a moment, Eddy lost himself in the magnificence way her hips swayed as she walked towards him.Her black hair danced with the wind, making her look like a celebrity. Her eyes were clear and focused on him. Eddy was so lost in her beauty that he did not see her stop in front of him."Hey, mister! Here!" She snapped her fingers before Eddy, jolting him to reality. "Who are you?""Uhm," Eddy suddenly became confused. He scratched his head that was not itching. "I, I, uhm-i..." he suddenly coughed. "I am Martin Derek, a writer. I have a letter for Mr. Antonio.""Martin Derek..." The woman drawled, looking at Eddy's messy red hair.

    "How do we get in?" Damien asked.Eleanor had suggested that they try to get into the Huxton's site, but they needed to find a way in. How to bypass the security at the gate without drawing attention to themselves."Well," Eleanor said, chewing her pen cover under the watchful gazes of Damien and Eddy. "How about we use Eddy?""As a scapegoat?" Eddy asked, with wide eyes. "No, thank you! My boss would not eve-""I agree," Damien nodded, surprising Eddy who shook his head slowly."I knew it!"

After her shower and dressing up, she returned to the blue themed bedroom. It was large, about the same size of her bedroom back home.As she was about to sit and dig into the breakfast in the tray, a knock interrupted her."Door's open," She called, watching to see who would come in.Damien walked in. He had already bathed and was dressed in a pair of blue sweatpants, and yet, another thousand dollars Nike shoes."Did not think you would be up already," He said, pointing at her. "And I see you are already dressed up."Eleanor nodded."Hmmm. Good morning," She greeted and turned to her tray of food. "Care to join me for breakfast?" She asked, glancing at him before adding, "it's the least I could do to thank you for bringing me to such a comfortable room."Damien nodded."Enjo

He was tempted to tell her 'no', but as he looked into her eyes, he could see clearly, the unwavering determination that mirrored his own.Toni turned to Eleanor, her eyes widening in surprise."Can you do it?" she asked, her voice filled with a mix of skepticism and hope.Eleanor nodded, a small smile playing on her lips."Yes, I'm a hacker too," she revealed, her tone filled with a quiet confidence. "I can break through that firewall, gather the information we need, and I'll also make sure to log out before the system can trace me."Toni's doubt did not fade away, but she let Eleanor take the seat, then she stood behind her."Let's see what we got here..." Eleanor drawled as she began tapping quickly on the keyboard.

It had been far too long since he last visited, but the familiarity tugged at his heartstrings, welcoming him back like an old friend.Eleanor sat quietly in the cab, her gaze fixed on the passing streets. Her mind was filled with thoughts as she observed the people around her. While many smiled and exchanged greetings, she could see glimpses of hidden struggles and doubts behind those cheerful facades. It saddened her to realize that there was often more beneath the surface than met the eye."We can finally move out of the hotel," Damien noted, pulling Eleanor's attention back to him as the driver kept driving. His voice was filled with a sense of relief. Curiosity sparked in Eleanor's eyes as she could not help but wonder.

When he saw her, he put his phone away and like a gentleman, reached for the suitcase in her hand.Eleanor hesitated and said, "You do not have to come along if you do not want to, you know."Damien hissed and pulled the suitcase out of her grip gently. "Firstly, I'm going on this trip because I want to. Secondly, I'm going because I have a meeting in Spain. And thirdly," He paused and flashed her a wink. "Let's leave that one for later.""If anything happens to her, you will not make it out of Spain alive!"
