2022-03-31 12:46:13There was no movement, none from me or from the people around. The nerve of her to come out and put a blame on me, I was shaken, infact any one would be if put in the situation I was in right now.
Damon's face was cold, his expression was the only one I cared most about right now. I was scared of what he might say next, my heart was beating.... so hard you could hear the sound from outside.
I looked at the maid who had accused me for something I didn't do but only thought of.
"I never went to his room, where did you get such idea from?" I decided to defend myself before things get messy, it's bad enough that he dislikes me, I don't want him to hate me any further.
For the first time after the long pause we all took, Damon looked at me, his gaze was of a kind that try to read a person's innocence from their behavior.
Damon let out a long sigh before he said. "Someone went in my room and took something which is very precious to me." He paused before

I stared at the half torn picture on the floor. I picked it up and recognized Elizabeth standing next to Damon, there was a hand on her shoulder and it didn't seem like it belonged to Damon but to the person at the right side of which I couldn't recognized.What gave off the gender of the unknown person beside Elizabeth was the rugged look of his hand, the other side that held the person's face was torn out perfectly.It baffles me how every clue I get always end up being torn, who ever is doing this must have a skill for tearing up things.My mind can't be at rest with every dead end I meet each time I am one step close in fixing the puzzle.There was a knock on my door which made me hide the diary and picture under my bed and quickly threw the duvet on myself and pretended like I was asleep.The door to my room opened wide as I couldn't help looking, I closed my eyes shut when I saw Damon walk in, he locked the door behind him before

What was going wrong with me? Here I was looking at this handsome brute with a strong desire for him to take me on his bed right now. I can't point out this sudden attraction and why? I know that I never saw him in this kind of way before and never thought that I ever will but today was really different.He showed so much care even after getting angry at the dinner table an action that put me off..... All this thought was done while I stared at his lips."If you going to keep staring at my lips at least you should tell me what was so important that you had to say" he said."Ah...." I mumbled as I tried to shake off such lust full thought from my head. "It was nothing" I said without knowing, my eyes widened at my response. "I mean.... It's about your heirloom......""What about it? Have you decided to return it""No!" I said out of annonyance. "I mean, I never took it in the first place" I tried to correct myself while still standing my ground.

Xander couldn't recover from what he had heard, he had a frown on his face that show how displeased he was. I moved closer to him and held his hand. "How about we both some fresh air" I said to him.He looked at me and nodded. We walked to the swimming pool area and sat there for a while not saying a single word to each other. I knew he had a lot say and pour out, I just need to be patient and wait till he was ready to talk, who knows he might end up speaking about the obvious rivalry between Elizabeth and Alicia and also the supposed relationship the four of them shared.I was so engrossed in my thought that I didn't notice Xander looking at me with a smile, what caught my attention was when he rubbed his hands on mine which were still interlocked."You look beautiful under the sun" he said, I could tell he was flirting with me and something in me wanted to play along, I mean what's the worst that could happen and considering we are just getting to know each ot

Damon glared at Xander with utmost hate in his eyes, it was obvious something was up between but it was tell what it. There was the idea Xander wanting to take over Damon's company but I know that this hate goes way beyond that."I guess now I can get the respect I deserve, little brother" Xander said and my eyes widened.What!"Will you two cut it out!" Beatriz banged on the table and Damon exited the room. I had not a single clue what was going on.Little brother? Damon is Xander's little brother? I cannot believe this.Beatriz covered her face and laid her head on the table, she took out a napkin and then she started crying. I could feel her sadness despite not knowing everything, I took her to her room and laid her on the bed.When I was about to leave the room she stopped me by saying, "Let's talk, Priscilla". I on the other hand was open for any discussion to understand more on all this melt down going on.She sat up, taking out

I rolled back and forth trying to feel the softness of the bed, it's been so long since I have felt this relaxed. I covered my with the duvet on my bed to share my eyes from the incoming sunlight that was creeping through the window.I was too lazy to get off from bed, infact all week I have been really lazy. Damon had been the one doing all the work, from bringing my early morning breakfast to my lunch and then guiding me down to eat dinner.He was overdoing it and I know. He was doing all this and more since the incident that happened on Friday which was partly my fault, I didn't get harmed but he got scolded and I guess he still feels guilty up to this point. I don't care how he was feeling as long as he was nice to me.I finally got out of the bed but lazily strolled to the balcony which was high up above the swimming pool area and you could see trees from up there, the mansion was indeed in a remote area with only the birds to accompany you.

Damon threw his eyes away from my left boob before I felt ashamed as how exposed it was. He walked into the shower with his business suit on despite knowing the fact that the lady in there was very much naked.He stepped out again to get her a towel so she could cover herself with before he went back to his room to get his own bathrobe. The lady probably in her mid twenties sat on the bed in her room exchanging shy glances with me.In no time Damon returned and led the lady out of the room. I took my bath and left the room as well.Damon confirmed he was indeed taking me somewhere but the lady who was with us was also in the car as well, the more I looked at her, the more I found out who she was. She was the lady that was with Damon the other day, who was on a tight bun and a primitive glasses, she looked different with her hair loose.He laid his hand on hers before he whispered something into her ears, she smiled and nodded before they both

Smack! Xander held his face with his hands. "All throughout last year I wondered why suddenly Damon who was to marry Alicia suddenly chose to marry that girl" Beatriz said, her eyes getting watered with her tears which she wiped away Immediately. "So Damon was covering for you all this time and what was the last thing about the child not being his, who else could it have been......" Beatriz paused to have a deep thinking. Her eye brows furrowed at her sudden conclusion. "It is yours?" She said as if she was a little doubtful. "I had no idea Beth was planning to have a wedding, yes we loved each other but back then I didn't know, I admit that I did get the invitation but I never read it and that was the day I left" Xander admitted stepping back to rub his cheeks further ignoring her last question. "And the child? Tell me it's Damon's" Beatriz gripped Xander's hands in exasperation, her finger nails piercing deep into his skin.

The Mistress Surrogate Epilogue
Five years later Though the surgery on Damon was successful, he wasn't responding to treatment. I kept believing that each month my belly grew that he was one step from waking up. Sometimes I would cry on his bed that he does wake up but be honest what has crying ever done, crying didn't bring back my mum and so it was impossible to bring him back. At the ninth month I had camped in his room for several days to see if I monitored him he would wake up and then.... Lest I forget, during those months I was busy trying to get Damon out from his coma, I had actually attended Beatriz hearing. I visited her a day to that and she apologized for all that she had done and told me that she actually liked me for her son but with the deal she had with Alicia couldn't let her love me like she did before. She told me she would confess to everything and take the entire blame but that wasn't what I wanted her to do, so I had ask her to focus on telling the truth.

She was running her own entire wedding in our faces and she was doing pretty good at it. When everyone were very much seated Alicia asked for all of her men to leave as there was no need for them being here since there was no place we could run to."Today is for us, Damon. I hope the ropes aren't too tight on you, you see I would love to release you but I can't trust that you would stay still till our wedding is over" she said softly. "Please carry on"The officiator began with a few passages from the Bible about marriage and how sacred it is.... I could see Alicia getting impatient with him and she gave him an order that he should speed things up."Hey.... Psst" Jeanette called for my attention from the order row. "Aren't you going to do something to stop the wedding? I mean if it was my man getting married to someone else I know that I won't seat still and let her snatch him away from..... Fine I get that we aren't on good terms and believe it I do

Priscilla POVSeeing Beatriz leave in that manner had spiked the room for gossip as silent whispers from the workers could be heard. I slowly slipped out of the living room after Alicia had gone somewhere probably to check on Beatriz, those two really care for each other and Xander had left to search for a good lawyer for his mother.I heard silent sobs coming out of Elizabeth's room as she packed all of her things into her luggage bag. I knew she was heartbroken and had felt bad for all that she had done, but the things she did to Damon was pretty much despicable and I would side with Damon anytime any day if compared.I spent an hour in my room trying to process all that had happened. Would Damon had actually gotten his mother arrested for my sake? If so, how did he know she was the culprit? And if that were to be the case, why wasn't Alicia arrested as well? She is the one who spearheaded the entire mission and now she is walking free like nothing has happened.

Alicia POVThe heel on my stilettos made a sound each step I took on this cold tiled ground. I held my breathe from taking in the stench of all these criminals that were being thrown into jail for some particular period of time.I went straight to the officer who had arrested Beatriz an hour ago or two.... Somewhere there about, was to busy laughing to had even realize the time she was arrested."I'm here to see Mrs Beatriz" I said, flashing those teeth that I had just got whitened for this particular reason.... Smiling actually makes you younger."Mrs Beatriz?" He said lifting a questioning brow, "are you here in place of her family cause I just spoke with Damon and he said none of his family members will be bailing her out, they have even made that clear to the judge""Oh.... I am not here for that at all, infact I am only concerned as to how she is coping, I don't want to go against Damon's wishes" I said as my smile grew wider, I just can't belie

Alicia POVTwo years agoI wept profusely as I got the message of the cancellation of my wedding to Damon. Our wedding was the next day and everybody had already anticipated for this day to come for me, they all knew how much I loved Damon.Though I had no single clue as to what was the cause of the call off I still had expected Damon to had called rather than sending me a text message. The thought of having to send out a message to my invitees about Damon calling off the wedding had me shed tears even more.Despite of all that I was feeling inside I can never hate Damon rather my love for him grew. I knew he had his eyes on someone else that he couldn't reach but still that didn't stop me. I loved him ever since our university days where we both studied a different course but still cross each other's part daily.Our first meeting had brought about "love at first sight" for me. It was like an over used drama scene when a girl is been pushed over by a

I knew it was impossible that Damon gave what was mine to another woman whose job is to crave for his attention and does all she can to get it. But it did make me feel uncomfortable as my eyes didn't leave her hand, I was focused on it so much that I had forgotten what was going on.To be honest I felt betrayed, which is why I calmed myself with a believe that there was a coincidence she had the ring on her finger, she probably would've bought the ring at the same store Damon got his. I should be calm, don't think Priscilla, please don't.Damon turned to Link to get Elizabeth's parents and that Liliana be given to her nanny to watch over for now."Why are you bringing my parent into our problem, this should be settled by the both of us and not them" Elizabeth begged as Damon was adamant on bringing them in despite her plead, "Stop Brett now, please.... Xander! Bloody do something cause your name is on it""What did you say? Whose name is on it? I thought

My heart sank as I dread the day I refused his proposal, my response was going to be yes and then we get married and live happily ever after---- that's the plan. I sobbed harder, resting my back on the wall only to find Jeanette laughing at me. "You must really love Damon.... well he isn't dead but he is back and had requested the presence of everyone"I glared at her as the urge to slap her gripped me, too bad I wasn't the one who got the chance to..... Of all the people in this mansion to play this joke and she chose Damon.Jeanette had called Alicia as she was walking by to tell her the joke she just pulled on me, in no second Alicia's hand met Jeanette's skin. "Never joke on Damon's life like that! If you want to make a silly joke use yourself or anybody but never in your gold digging life utter Damon's name close to the word death" hearing her speak, I had to admit that this was the first time we both share the same thoughts.Alicia looked at me, she saw ho

I stood in awe of the drama Alicia was pulling off quite well. The sympathy from the maids and other solicited spectators, who had cameras rolling, taking in every action Alicia portrayed. I had to admit that her acting was superb, and believe it or not it was Oscar worthy.She threw her hair to the side as she wiped her tears, taking Jeanette hands before adding, "This is my trustworthy friend who has stood with me all through this trying time" hugging Jeanette she went further to add, "Thank you for being there for me"Wasn't it today that I heard Beatriz and her discussing her return? Then how the hell is she back this soon? I really don't like this one bit."Welcome back dear" Beatriz came out to hug her and kissed her forehead. "Regardless of the situation, you will forever be the daughter of this family and for that we the entire Prince family shall host a special homecoming event for you in three days time, first let get you settled" she ordered one of th

The diary Elizabeth wrote was opened wide in front of the police officer I ws directed to deliver my case. I watched as he scanned through the pages without having to read it's content. When he got to the part where the handwriting went amiss, he looked up at me to question me about it."Did you forge this to incriminate a person?" He gave me stern look, aggressively pushed the diary to my side and stopped any bit of explanation from my mouth. "Please leave, we don't have time for this" he said before throwing his eyes to the screen of his computer."I have another proof...." I tried saying, he paid no heed to my contention as he got up from his seat and left me in my baffling position.I felt a little disgusted at his behaviour but I had no time to dwell on a corrupt person who refuse to see the fact that was in front of his. I grabbed the diary and left the table.As i was focused on unzipping my bag so that I could put the book back in, I bumped
