"You conniving bitch, I've had enough of you! Your face makes me sick! Just fricking go to hell, Lana!" The anger in his eyes, the disgust on his face...

His thoughts kept drifting back to a certain red head, and forest green eyes.Sensous lips, pale full breasts and milky skin...Damien groaned loudly and dripped the file. He held his head in his hands, rubbing the ache that had settled there.The thought of what had transpired in his room with Lana, that morning caused him to have a permanent hard-on, his bulging length pushing against his zipper, begging for release.Damien stood up and walked to the small bar in his office, yanking at his tie as he went. The room was suddenly hot and he rolled up his sleeves to his elbow before pouring himself a stiff drink, downing it in one gulp.The image of Lana on the edge of her release, shuddering against him while she rode
Chapter One Hundred And Twenty-Two"Miss Lana!"Lana jerked upright as Mandy tapped her arm, and the sheaf of papers she had been holding fluttered to the floor. Mandy looked alarmed but without another word, she bent down and started retrieving the papers from the floor.Lana blinked in surprise and quickly assisted her to retrieve the papers, muttering her apologies."So sorry about that." She said to her assistant, who smiled warmly, although she was worried about the head of design team. She'd been at Lana's desk for over thirty minutes, going over some designs and files when she suddenly realized that Lana wasn't listening to her.Lana sat still, staring into space and unblinking. Her breath was coming out in short gasps and her eyes were glazed, completely lost in whatever she was thinking."Is everything okay, Miss Lana?" Mandy finally asked, her voice tinged with concern, "You look flushed." She said, her eyes roving over Lana's heated cheeks "What were you thinking about?"
Chapter One Hundred Twenty OneLana's hand flew to her mouth as she stifled a scream, when the door to her left was pushed open, suddenly. She watched with eyes bulging, as Damien walked out of what seemed to be the bathroom, toweling his hair furiously. She stood completely still, and Damien was still unaware of her presence as her eyes became glued to his body. She allowed her eyes to run slowly down his body and her mouth went dry.Damien looked glorious, with his taut body and ripped muscles. His chest was massive and she stared appreciatively, allowing her eyes to travel past his lean stomach and then to his...Lana swallowed hard as her gaze fell on his length, and her jaw dropped open slightly, unable to take her eyes off his massive rod. It laid in a semi-flacid state and as she watched, her eyes widened in fascination when she saw it grow hard.Wait, why was that happening?Suddenly, it occured to her that the only sound that could be heard in the room, was her breath coming
Chapter One Hundred And Twenty"Uhm...you guys...I'm still here, remember?"Liam's voice crashed through the moment, released Damien from the spell of Lana's tearful eyes. He clenched his teeth as he turned to glare at the assistant, who gave him a defiant look in return.He could have easily walked out of the room to give them some time to themselves, but he was very much interested in their new found case. It was late and he needed to know the next line of action to take concerning this matter, and he needed to know it that night.Lana was so drowsy by then, that she could not sit still. Her eyelids drooped close as her head lolled forward, crashing against Damien's chest.He held her securely, and she did not resist when he hoisted her into his arms, and carried her bridal style out of the room."Wait here." He ordered Liam, who sighed heavily in reply, but did not utter a word.Lana snuggled against Damien as he carried her to her room, rubbing her cheeks against his hard chest.
Chapter One Hundred And NineteenDamien arched an eyebrow at her as curiosity drew him from the windows, and over to the desk."My grandmother?" He asked, his voice wary as he looked at the box. Lana watched him pick up the small black box and scrutinized it from all angles, his brows furrowed in a small frown.He did not reach to open the box as he eyed it, warily, "What's in it?"Lana collected the box from him and opened it, revealing the letter and the tapes before setting it back down on the desk, "A few months back, Diego gave me this parcel." She swallowed a hard lump in her throat as she reached for the letter and handed it to him, "Apparently, I was supposed to receive it five years ago. Right before she...before Laura died."Damien was reading the letter now, his expression unreadable but she saw the pain in his eyes. Raw pain and regret which he made no effort to hide as he looked up at her.Lana's heart ached for him. She knew it would be hard for him to read his grandmoth
Chapter One Hundred And EighteenDamien stood arms akimbo in front of his desk, looking pissed as hell. He could not believe the news his assistant was giving him at the moment.The police could not find anything in the video linking Aryan to Lana's attack? The video was enough proof in itself, dammit!"Ludovic must have pulled some strings," he muttered bitterly to himself, "He really has a death wish.""That's bullshit!" He swore loudly after sometime, getting more and more annoyed as he thought about it, "What are the cops doing? Do I have to do everything myself?!""No, you don't."Both men turned to look at Lana as she strode into the room, confidently. She gave them a square look as she walked up to them, and stood directly in front of them.Damien scowled and turned away from her, "You're really not supposed to be here, Lana." He said in a cool tone, his expression impassive, his demeanor different from the seething man of a few moments ago, "And besides..." he turned to glare
Chapter One Hundred And SeventeenWhen the car pulled into the driveway of the Romero Villa, Lana placed all her attention in unbuckling her seatbelt, so she would not look at Damien but strangely enough, the belt was stuck.She jerked at the seat belt in frustration, and Damien turned to her alerted by her movements. "Here, let me help you." He said as he took his off, and leaned towards her to help her with the seatbelt.Lana put up a hand quickly at him, her heart beating loudly once more at his closeness, "No." She said quickly, "I'm fine. I'll just do it myself."A tiny frown furrowed his brows as he reached for the buckle nonetheless, "Relax, Lana." He said to her, carefully undoing the clasp that kept her stuck to the chair, "I'm not going to bite."Lana let out a breath she did not know she was holding as she felt the belt release her but that relief was short lived as she realized that Damien was still leaning close to her.She froze, unable to take her eyes off his face ab
Chapter One Hundred And SixteenLana went very still as Damien's lips claimed hers. It was like every other thing disappeared at that moment and the only thing she could feel was his firm lips on hers, nibbling and tasting.It was electrifying and desire coursed through her veins when his tongue delved into her mouth, and Lana let out a moan, melting completely into him.Damien growled low in his throat as one hand moved from her face to her hair, while the other grabbed her waist and pulled her closer.She could feel how hard he was already as he pressed against her tummy. Lana felt her mind completely lose control of her body, as her hand wrapped around his waist and another cralwed up his body, tugging at his shirt. Their kiss deepened as their tongues meshed and dueled. Damien moved until he held her gently against the hedge and another moan escaped Lana, as his mouth started nibbling her ear and neck.However, the feeling of his palm fully cupping her breast brought her crashing
Chapter One Hundred And Fifteen.The silence in the Maybach, as Damien and Lana rode down the streets and towards home, was defeaning.Lana was sitting very straightbacked on her seat, willing her heartbeat to slow down, but it continued beating loudly in her ears.She dared not look sideways at Damien, who, surprisingly, was looking very calm and zen considering what had happened just a few minutes ago. She inhaled sharply and clutched the silky material of her dress, as her mind drifted back to what had happened in the garden.When she'd seen Zaire drag Rina out of the building, Lana knew something was very wrong.First of all, why were they together?She'd never thought Zaire and Rina knew each other, and why was he pulling her after him that way?Then, Zaire had slapped Rina and Lana's jaw dropped in shock, her eyes widening at the man in front of her. This was not the Zaire she knew. Zaire Ludovic, who was her friend, rarely got angry and would definitely not hit a woman but h
Chapter one "We're here, Madam" The driver's clear voice, interrupted Lana's thoughts and her eyes snapped open. She had been lost in thoughts and didn't realize they were already home. "Oh thanks Diego" Lana said as she snapped out of her thoughts as the driver went round the side of the car to open the door for her. She gave him a charming smile which slowly faded as she stared at the huge mansion which stood in front of her. Placing her bag on her shoulder, she wearily walked into the house, the full skirts of her white dress, almost sweeping the floor. Maids bowed and greeted her as they held the door open for her. Lana failed to see the concerned looks they gave her and themselves. She wearily made her way up the grand stairs that led to her bedroom. Her head was filled with various thoughts but the one that stood out the most were the words she heard about an hour ago. At the doctor's office. "Congratulations, Mrs Romero. You're pregnant!" The doctor had said...
