Yara stood in front of the large mirror in her room, staring at her reflection. Her face was pale, her eyes puffy, and her lips chapped. The small cut at the corner of her lip from Damian's bite a few days ago was still painful. She rubbed her lips lightly, remembering the man's cruelty. However, one thing began to occupy her mind: fighting Damian would only make things worse.

"If I keep going like this, he'll only get rougher," Yara muttered softly. Her hands clenched into fists, then she slowly took a deeper look at herself in the mirror. "But how can I control that monster?"

Yara thought hard, remembering every moment where Damian lost control. The man was explosive, but he wasn't completely invincible either. There were moments where Damian's emotions softened a bit. That was when he seemed weak, even if only for a moment. Yara smiled slightly, then gave a small grin.

"If I can't fight him with violence, I'll fight him in other ways," Yara said as she stepped towards the dre

  • The Devil’s Embrace   Chapter 11

    Yara stood stiffly, her body exuding false bravado. She knew this move was risky, but her mind was made up. She had to take control, one way or another. Without another thought, she approached Damian who was still standing in front of her, staring at her like a tiger watching its prey. "What are you doing now, Yara?" Damian asked in a suspicious tone, his eyes watching her every move. Yara didn't answer. She grabbed Damian's chin with her small hand, pulling his face closer until only inches separated them. Her lips trembled, but she did it anyway. With a quick movement, she pressed her lips to Damian's. The kiss wasn't passionate, more like an act of desperation. Yara felt nothing but a chill running through her body. She closed her eyes, trying to get rid of the sudden disgust. Damian, on the other hand, did not resist. He let Yara do what she wanted, but kept his eyes open, watching the girl with a small smile at the corner of his lips. After a few seconds, Damian pulled aw

    Damian opened the door to his room slowly, the night was chilly from outside, but that wasn't what was making him uneasy. He had been sitting in his study for two hours, trying to distract himself, but the image of Yara kept nagging at him. The desire to get close to her burned more and more. Damian knew he shouldn't, but the urge was too strong to resist. When Damian stepped inside, he saw Yara sleeping on her side in her bed. The girl looked tired, her body curled up under the thin blanket. Her long hair was disheveled, hiding part of her face. Damian approached with calm steps, but there was something in his eyes that was dark and unreadable. He stared at Yara like someone who had lost control of himself. Without waking her up, he took out a pair of handcuffs from his pocket, then deftly attached them to her wrists. "Uh... What-" Yara gasped, her eyes opening in shock. She turned her head quickly, and found Damian standing next to her. Her face turned pale as she felt the col

    Damian slammed the glass against the living room wall so hard that it shattered into a million pieces. The sound broke the silence, making the servants who had been cleaning the room immediately run to the farthest corner, terrified. Damian's face turned red, his jaw hardened, and his eyes flashed an uncontrollable rage. "You bastard! How dare he invade my territory!" he snapped as he pounded the table with his fists, causing everything on it to shake. "How could you guys let your guard down! Did I hire a loser here?!" One of his subordinates tried to approach, but his body was trembling. "Ma-sorry, Mr. Damian... We'll take care of it right away. This won't happen again." Damian turned his head sharply, a piercing look in his eyes. "You think sorry is enough?! Then go, take care of it now! Or don't come back at all!" The man nodded frantically before rushing out. The rest of the people in the room immediately stepped aside one by one, leaving Damian alone in the middle of the

    Yara had just finished bathing, her body still wet, and she was only wearing a towel wrapped around her petite body. She stood in front of the closet, ready to change her clothes. However, the sound of the door opening suddenly made her turn around. Damian stood in the doorway, looking at her with sharp, eager eyes. "Damian! What are you doing here?" asked Yara in a high tone, trying to cover her body more tightly with a towel. Damian didn't answer immediately. He stepped into the room quietly, closing the door behind him. His gaze didn't leave Yara who was now looking at him with fear mixed with confusion. "You started it, Yara," Damian said in a low, but clear tone. His voice was heavy, like there was something he couldn't hold back anymore. "So don't blame me if I want it tonight." Yara took a few steps back, her back bumping into the closet. "What do you mean? That... that was just my way of stopping you that time. It meant nothing!" her voice trembled, though she tried

    "Yara! Why are you crying! Don't you want to conquer that monster?" Yara muttered to herself, wiping away her tears quickly. She stood in front of the mirror, staring at her still slightly wet face. She took a deep breath, trying to brace herself. There was no point in crying. "He's not human... He's a monster... And that monster I must defeat," she whispered to her own reflection. "Self-respect? What good is pride when my life is like this?" Yara sighed, replacing the fearful expression on her face with forced courage. Without hesitation, she opened the bedroom door and stepped out. Her steps were quick, until she found Damian standing in the dining room, sipping a glass of red wine with a blank stare out the window. "Damian," Yara called, her voice firm, but there was a subtle tremble to it. Damian turned his head slowly. His gaze was cold as always, but a little surprised to see Yara suddenly appear. "What's wrong, Yara? You're not quite satisfied with everything that happen

    Damian sat in his study with a wine glass in hand. His eyes stare blankly at the documents scattered across the desk, but his mind is not on numbers or business strategy. He was replaying the plan he had laid out years ago-make the girl fall in love with him, break her down by leaving her, then watch her fall apart, just like his mother had. Damian clenched his fists until his books turned white. "I can't lose focus," he muttered. "Yara is just a tool. She must pay for her family's sins." He took a deep breath, trying to calm his sudden anger. His thoughts returned to Yara, the little girl who was slowly starting to show a different side of herself. Unlike other women he had controlled, Yara was not completely submissive. Even as she tried to dominate, there was a subtle resistance that kept him on his toes. However, Damian gave a small smile. "She'll fall too. Just like the others." Meanwhile, in Yara's room, the girl sat on the bed, staring at the locked window. She took a dee

    Damian was sitting in his study when his cell phone rang loudly, breaking the silence. He furrowed his brow and picked it up immediately. The voice of the doctor who had been treating his mother sounded panicked on the other side. "Mr. Damian, I'm sorry. Mrs. Dania... she managed to escape. We tried to calm her down, but she was hysterical. The guards-" "What?! Escaped?!" Damian stood up instantly, his chair almost tipping backward. His voice sounded like a thunderous crash. "How come? What have you been doing all this time, huh?!" "She became very aggressive, sir. We didn't expect his strength... we-" "Shut up!" Damian slammed his cell phone down on the table, his face red with anger. He yelled at the people in his house, making the sound echo throughout the mansion. "Dog! You're all incompetent!" Yara, who was in her room at the time, heard Damian's shrill shout. She frowned, confused and alarmed. She didn't know what was going on, but Damian's anger felt so terrible that her

    Yara sat in the quiet living room, fiddling nervously with the hem of her skirt. It had been two days since Damian had left the mansion. He didn't say anything, just left after throwing a tantrum because his mother was missing. The atmosphere in the mansion felt strange without Damian. The servants walked cautiously, as if afraid that Damian's shadow was still lurking even though he wasn't home. Yara's curiosity began to grow. What exactly was going on with Damian's mother? Why was Damian so angry that everyone was scared just by hearing his voice? She stood up from the sofa and walked to the kitchen, where the servants usually gathered. Sure enough, there were two servants talking while washing dishes. When Yara walked in, they immediately fell silent, looking down as usual. "Hey," Yara called in a casual tone, trying not to look intimidating. "Let me ask you something." The two waitresses looked at each other, hesitating. "What do you want to ask, Miss?" one of them finally sp

    Damian stood by his mother's bedside, his eyes still fixed on her pale face. However, his reverie was broken when his cell phone vibrated in his coat pocket. With a quick movement, he pulled out the phone and looked at the name on the screen. One of the servants at the mansion. "What is it?" Damian's voice was cold, slightly impatient. "Sir, it's an emergency," the servant's voice sounded panicked. "Miss Yara... she's not at the mansion. We've searched the entire area, but-" Damian immediately gripped his cell phone tightly. "What do you mean no one?" "We believed she was still in her room since morning. But when we checked again, it was empty. It looks like she ran away, sir." Damian's breathing became heavy. His jaw hardened. "Asshole. That little girl is really looking for trouble."Without another word, Damian immediately switched off the call. His hands clenched into fists, his temper peaking. "Hugo," his voice was sharp and deadly. Hugo, who was standing in the

    Yara only realized something was wrong when her breathing became heavy. Her vision began to blur, her head felt unusually dizzy. She tried to move her legs, but her body relaxed instantly. She raised her hand to her neck, feeling something strange. "You... What are you doing...?" her voice was soft. The man smiled wryly, his eyes flashing triumphantly. "I'm just helping you rest for a bit, Miss Yara." Yara tried to back away, but her body was losing strength. The world around her began to spin. The man was still looking at her with a triumphant gaze. "Damn..." That was the last word that escaped her lips before everything turned dark. ***When Yara came to, her head felt heavy, her eyes hard to open. Slowly, she tried to move her body, but something held her back. Both her hands were tied behind the chair, as well as her legs. She gasped, immediately opening her eyes. The room was dark, lit only by a dim lamp in the corner. The smell of dust and iron filled her nose. Her

    Yara was now walking carefully through the city streets. She managed to get out of the mansion without being spotted. Yara still wanted to find information about Felix Lucano. Although the man was like a shadow-not easy to find, as if the man had deliberately eliminated his traces. Yara sat on a park bench after almost two hours of searching for information. Her hands were busy on her phone, typing Felix Lucano's name into a search engine, but nothing came up. All that came up was old information about his company, Lucano Group, with no news of his current whereabouts. "Where should I look for you, Felix," she muttered in frustration. Yara bit her lip, resisting the urge to give up. After all, this was about the past of the man she said was her biological father. Yara closed her eyes for a moment, recalling how her mother had always avoided talking about Felix. If only her mother wasn't sick anymore, maybe Yara could have urged her mother to tell her about Felix Lucano. Someon

    That morning, Damian and Yara sat at the dining table, enjoying breakfast. Yara seemed calm, occasionally stirring her coffee while glancing at Hugo who seemed busy with his cell phone. However, the calmness did not last long. Hugo's face suddenly turned serious after receiving an incoming message. He read the message carefully before finally raising his head, looking at Damian who had just arrived and sat in his chair. "Sir, we have news about Mrs. Dania.Damian, who was pouring coffee, immediately stopped his movements. He turned his head with a sharp gaze. "What?" "She was found in one of the hospitals outside the city. She is still in a coma," Hugo explained in a calm voice, but there was tension in his tone. The cup Damian was holding almost fell over, but he managed to control himself. "Who's taking care of her?""A man named Ferdo," Hugo continued. "He paid for Madame Dania's care all these years."Damian narrowed his eyes, his mind instantly filled with suspicion. "Fe

    Damian was silent.His eyes lingered on Yara's face as she stared at him with conviction. She had just said something he shouldn't have heard-something he had been avoiding. "What did you say?" his voice sounded flat, but his eyes held a lot of emotion. Yara looked at him without hesitation. "I love you, Damian," she repeated clearly. Damian blinked once, then suddenly chuckled. His laughter sounded faint, like something he didn't really enjoy. He looked at Yara as if she had just said something ridiculous. "Love?" Damian repeated the word, as if to make sure he hadn't misheard. "Little girl, you don't know what you're saying." Yara kept her gaze on him, undaunted. "I know exactly what I'm saying." Damian smiled wryly. In an instant, his hands were wrapped around Yara's waist, pulling the girl closer. Before Yara could react, Damian's lips were already crushing hers in an intense way-full of passion, but also with frustration in them. Yara was surprised, but didn't resis

    As the bedroom door closed, Damian looked at Yara with questioning eyes. "What do you plan to do now, my little girl?" Yara smiled meaningfully, then quickly pulled Damian's hands above her head. "Shhh... this time, let me take back control." Before Damian could protest, Yara had already tied his wrists with the tie she had just removed. Damian stared at the girl with raised eyebrows, a faint smile forming at the corner of his lips. "You want to play like this?" his voice was low, full of interest. Yara just smiled, then without hesitation she lowered her head, letting her lips trail gently down Damian's neck. "I wonder what it would be like if King Mafia couldn't do anything." Damian chuckled softly, but his breathing grew heavy as Yara continued down, her lips trailing along his jaw, then to his collarbone. Her free fingers brush against his skin, creating a tantalizing sensation that makes Damian stiffen. "Yara..." his voice trembled slightly, not from fear, but from th

    In Damian's office, it was nine in the morning. Damian sat in his chair with an unpredictable expression. Hugo stood across the desk, looking at his boss with a meaningful gaze. "Mr. Damian, you've been sighing since earlier. Is there a problem?" asked Hugo as he folded his arms across his chest. Damian twirled the pen in his fingers, his gaze blank. "I don't know, Hugo. I think I'm going crazy." Hugo frowned. "Crazy how, sir?" Damian sighed again, longer this time. "I feel like I'm falling in love with Yara." Hugo looked at him with an incredulous expression, then shook his head. "Oh my, Mr. Damian. Do you realize what you just said?" Damian leaned back in his chair, staring at the ceiling. "I realize. And it sucks." Hugo chuckled, though there was a sardonic tone in it. "What about your grudge, sir? Have you forgotten your original purpose?" Damian was silent for a moment. His eyes hardened, but there was conflict in them. "I haven't forgotten, Hugo. I want him to f

    Damian had just entered the mansion with calm steps. After a full day of dark business, his body felt a little tired, but his mind was still sharp. Hugo followed behind him, giving a brief report before finally leaving Damian alone. As Damian entered his room, his gaze immediately fell on Yara who was fast asleep on the bed. Her breathing was regular, her face looking peaceful under the light of the nightlight. Damian stood at the edge of the bed, staring at the girl unconsciously flashing a small smile. "Damn, why am I getting attracted to her?"Damian sighed, rubbing his face for a moment. Sure, Yara was originally just a tool for his revenge on Felix. But now? With each passing day, he became more and more unsure of his original intentions. She had wanted to wake Yara up, wanted to pull the girl into her arms, wanted to feel the warmth that had recently become addictive. But seeing Yara sleeping like that, he couldn't bear it. Damian finally moved to leave, but just as he t

    Seven o'clock in the morning. Damian sat in his chair with a cold expression, staring at Yara who was busy spooning food onto her plate. Yara pretended not to care, although she could feel Damian's piercing gaze. The servants stood in the corner of the room, waiting for orders, but they could feel the tension between their Master and the girl who was now the center of his attention. Damian finally opened his voice. "Don't ever do it again, Yara."Yara, who was chewing bread, immediately stopped. She swallowed with difficulty and then looked at Damian with a confused expression. "What does that mean?"Damian put down his knife and fork with a sound loud enough to make some of the servants flinch. "Never leave the mansion in secret again. Let alone disguise yourself as a servant just to trick the guards." Yara was silent. She knew this would be discussed. "I'm just bored, Damian," Yara tried to defend herself. "I'm not a prisoner, but I'm treated like a bird in a cage. I need f
