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.

So since Laura's Dad introduced Zaire to her wouldn't it make sense to loop in her Dad? because he has resources to get all the information.

Um no, Rina did not “take” Damien away from Lana. He’s a full grown man who made his own despicable decisions. He is the reason he was a cheating, emotionally abusive ahole those years ago. I hate how these types of stories act like men aren’t accountable for their own thoughts and actions.

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.

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?"

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.

Liam said, scrutinizing Bella with a cool gaze from where he stood by the floor to ceiling windows in Damien's office. Bella bowed slightly, and shifted uncomfortably in her seat. Liam had not been harsh nor had she messed up with what had been asked of her, but she was still very uncomfortable. Probably, because Damien had not said a word after the phone call. Her eyes darted to where he was seated very straightbacked on his chair at the head of the table. He had his eyes closed all through her conversation with Rina, as if he was asleep but the slight furrow of his brows indicatedvthat he was awake and aware of everything that was going on.They were all gathered in Damien's office, Bella, Liam and Damien.After listening to the recordings retrieved from the tapes earlier, Damien had order

Lana asked, her voice sharp. Without waiting for an answer, she whirled on Damien, "Why is she with my box?!"Damien had his head on his hand, his eyes closed with frustration. Liam was on his feet in seconds as he walked over to the women."Miss Lana, if you'll just step into the office," he stepped round them to close the door behind, which had been left wide open by Lana. He turned to face the women and met Lana's steely glare. She placed her hand on the box, "Hand it over." She said, glaring at the maid who flinched and immediately let go of the box, scuttling backwards."No."They all turned to face Damien who was staring at them, a grim expression on his face.His expression became soft, however when he spoke to Lana, "Give her the box, Lana.""And why would I do such a thing?"

After a moment, he placed the bowl down in front of her, while she stared at him, expectantly with expressive green eyes.They were seated at the table in the Romero Villa, having dinner. The entire table was filled with mouthwatering dishes- meats, mashed potatoes, salads, bread rolls, stir fries- they were so much that, they could feed an entire village.Lana always wondered why each meal at the Villa was like a banquet, and wondered if Damien always ate like that.She had no idea of his eating pattern or preference, because they've never shared a meal together in their marriage. Except if Laura invited them over to her place for dinner, and they had to endure the strenuous task of being in each other's presence. It was strenuous for Damien because he always acted like it was a chore to have one mea

She asked as she walked past him, "Is she okay?""Screw the young miss." Adrian spat out loudly in anger as they both entered the small room, "What the hell is going on?

He did not mean to yell and rarely lost his cool, but he was pissed with what just happened a few moments ago in his own house.Anila sighed, "if you will only let me explain, then I will. Stop yelling at me." She reprimanded him as she walked over to Lana.Lana was huddled on the bed, cowering under the bed covers in fear.

Another yell came and this time it was accompanied by a solid thump, like a vicious kick to the door."What the hell? Who knocks like that?" Adrian said, frowning in annoyance. He was about to walk towards the door when Anila stopped him."No Adrian! Don't go." She called out to him, holding out a hand to stop him.Adrian looked from the door to his mother, "What?" He asked, his confusion becoming more apparent.

She said as she beamed up at Lana, because she was clearly four inches shorter than her."I know mother," The red haired guy, Adrian replied drily, "I treated her."Lana stared at him, "Treated?"

She was limping due to the cuts under the sole of her feet, which the cool damp earth of the forest did nothing to soothe.Yet, Lana ran.She was blinded by a film of tears and terrified gasps came out of her mouth as she stumbled through the dark forest."LANA!"He was close!He would get her and throw her back into that suffocating place. Taking control of her whole life."No, never..." Lana muttered breathlessly as she ran. The moon was hidden behind the huge rain clouds filling the sky now. Now, and then, lightening cracked through the sky, sending a flash of white through the forest.The rumbling of thunder will follow soon after and it made Lana shriek and shudder in terror as she ran.No! No! Stay away, please!Suddenly, a hand shot out from before her and grabbed her throat tightly,

Or was it her imagination?Imagination or not, it was definitely the cue she needed to open the fucking trapdoor. Luckily, the trapdoor wasn't locked and opened up easily before her to reveal another darkness below.Lana swallowed hard as a sudden rush of cold air hit her face. She shivered uncontrollably and willed her beating heart to calm down.This was just the same as walking into the passageway, she reminded herself, Everything will be fine. There are no snakes waiting down there.The way the wind whistled from below made her wonder how far the drop was.She laid down the trapdoor, and peered down into the hole with her torchlight. The beam flashed on a slab of wood below her, then another and another all connected with a rope.A ladder!She allowed the light of the torch to travel down until she finally saw the ground.It was not ve

He had brought her here as well and a bitter taste filled his mouth, as he realized how her presence must have tainted his precious sanctuary."I really should have killed her a long time ago." He thought to himself as he downed the contents of his second glass of whiskey.Well, there was still time.He could still kill her and also give the same treatment to his beloved half-brother. A slight smile curved his lips as he relished the thought of Damien coming to challenge him on his own turf.He'd be able to come in easily but to go out will not be so easy.He also regretted the fact that he'd brought Lana to Moreno. He could have easily taken her to Italy or Cuba, but he figured they were too far away and he needed to still be able to

She expected it to open up at any moment and Zaire would walk in.She'd get caught before she even started anything and faced with more torment than she could imagine."There's no time to waste." She reminded herself as she edged closer to the wall, "Let's get out of here, Lana."Slowly, she reached out her hand to the wall and pushed it. The wall did not budge.Lana swallowed hard as her heart started beating faster once again.What the hell? Why isn't the wall opening up now?She pushed the wall again with all her might and still nothing."Okay Lana." She took in a deep breath and exhaled slowly, "Remain calm and think.

How the fuck was he able to do that with his weak system?!"Aryan swallowed hard as he spoke carefully, "It seems he had help from Fernandez." He informed Zaire, "The email which we sent to Miss Vermont was the key to the base, sir."Zaire immediately gripped the collars of Aryan's shirt, fiercely and drew him to him, "You said there was no way they'd be able to trace it!" Zaire said harshly, baring his teeth at Aryan, "What is the meaning of this sloppy work?!"Aryan averted his gaze from Zaire, even as the strain of his collars being gripped was making it difficult for him to breath."I'm sorry, sir."
