Damien watched as Mrs Connor, Mason, and Madison’s best friend Gina walked through the door of his suite.Taking some steps towards them, a small smile on his face, he soon got to where Mason was standing specifically and stretched out his hands for a shake.The second Mason’s hand intertwined with his, Damien dragged his gaze down to where their palms were interwoven and his smile widened.For reasons unbeknownst to him, he was filled with some kind of peace and relief once more, and allowing the tides of hate fall apart, he looked back up slowly, his lips quivering.He wanted to say something. Well, he wanted to say so many things, but well they’d talked at length yesterday and as he recalled all they’d spoken about, Damien still thought it was a dream.His mind going back to the phone call conversation with Mason Connor, he remembered every single thing his former enemy had said to him, and now he could only stand in awe.Mason Connor, had freaking asked for his forgiveness. Not ju

TWO DAYS LATERHands folded, and standing upright Damien stared at the screen of his laptop, where he was currently having a video call session with Alvarez.Alvarez and his daughter Ivy rather… The little kid was stationed on her father’s thighs, eating some snacks out of a bowl.Dragging his gaze away from her, and back to his best friend, Damien cleared his throat and said for the umpteenth time today, “How many times will I tell you that I’ve been calling her line but it’s not reachable. It’s never going true, and with every single call that goes unanswered, the more my suspicions about her grows.”“Damien, you have to calm down.”“I can’t calm down damnit! Katherine is a living ticking time bomb. I can still vividly remember the threats she let out the last time we met and I had to leave her in my hotel suite in anger. Do you also know that when I came back, she turned my suite upside down.”“What? What do you mean man?”“Man… She shattered the glasses in the room. From the mirr

KATHERINE As the door of the room sprung open, and Katherine walked in, an instant smug smile graced her lips. Her hands by the sides, she sauntered briskly to where Madison lay on the floor, bruised, battered and wet and the sight brought her so much excitement.Coming to a stop in front of the bitch, Katherine lowered herself slowly until her knees was touching the cold floor, and her hands shooting out she grabbed a chunk of Madison’s hair.Instantly the bitch woke up, her lips dropping sideways and Katherine clacked her tongue in disgust.Her sight wasn’t a good one to behold, and moreso she was going to be brought to final doom today, so it wouldn’t be much of a bother.“Open your eyes you bitch!” Katherine ordered, her grip on the strawberry blonde locks tightening, and sharply Madison opened her eyes.“Oh… she obeyed me…” Katherine mocked, a chuckle bubbling from underneath her throat as she shot a glance at her men and said again, “The defiant stubborn bitch obeyed me. I tho

KATHERINE “Katherine…” Katherine instantly froze the second she heard Damien call out her name. She could recognize his voice even in her sleep, and she knew without a doubt that he was the one calling. The shotgun in her hand trembled, and she swallowed heavily, her whole body turning slowly, and her jaw dropped open when she locked gazes with him. He was not the only one present, and her heart slammed hard in her chest when she saw that police officers were wholly surrounded everywhere, alongside some other men who were heavily dressed and armed with weapons. From what she could see, she was already outnumbered, and her men were no match for these men. Her worst nightmare was coming to pass, and a swear escaping her lips, she wondered just how they had come to know of her whereabouts. How come? Who had given them some intel? Slowly, she turned her face and stared at her men one by one, trying to see if she could catch the traitor, but they all looked scared and shocked as s

“I have to see him, Mason. I have to….” These were the words that Madison kept on repeating all through the ride from the beach to the nearby hospital. The second the car stopped, just behind the ambulance that had conveyed Damien’s still unconscious body, Madison fumbled with the now freed car locks and hurriedly stepping out of the car, she rushed towards the nurses and doctors cluttered around the emergency vehicle. Mason was right behind her, calling out to her and begging her to slow her pace and calm down, but she wasn’t listening at all. Nothing he was saying made any sense. Nothing anybody said made sense. She just had to see Damien. She had to see him by all means, even if her whole body ached, and she could feel the pain of her battered body racking through her. “Madison, please stop. Don’t go there….” Mason shouted from far behind, but she didn’t stop walking until she was standing with the doctors. She watched as the medical team brought a stretcher and placed Damien
