All Chapters of Betrothed To Damon : Chapter 41 - Chapter 49

Kinabukasan ay maaga akong nagising. Wearing a wine red romper dress and a white top underneath and a pair of white rubber shoes ay mabilis akong tumungo sa bahay ni George to ask for his help. Sinalubong ko si George na kakalabas lang ng kusina niya, topless and only wearing his bloose fit jeans.“Kath.”“Can you track Damon’s location right now? ““Possible. Why?”“Track his location—exact location. Pupuntahan ko siya. Make sure, nandoon ang asawa at anak nam—niya.”Nagtataka man ay kaagad siyang tumungo sa isang pribadong kuwarto na natitiyak kong naglalaman ng computers niya. Sumunod ako at naabutan siyang mabilis ang galaw ng mga daliring nagtitipa sa keyboard.“Nga pala, may nakalap na akong information tungkol kay Da—”“Wala na akong pakialam sa kaniya. Keep that information with you,” malamig na sabi ko habang titig na titig sa monitor.“According to this, he’s currently at Buendia’s Village. I will write down the exact address.”Tahimik kong hinintay siyang matapos iyon bago

Nagising ako dahil sa sinag ng araw na tumatama na ngayon sa mukha ko. Hindi ko na maaalala kung paano pa ako nakatulog kagabi. Everything’s getting unclear to me. Marami na akong tanong na hindi ko na alam kung saan ako hahanap ng sagot. Lahat ng tao sa paligid ko ay tikom ang bibig na magbitiw ng kahit na maliit na impormasyon.I got out of bed weakly. Hinawi ko ang kurtina kaya mas lalong tumama sa akin ang sinag ng araw na dahilan para bahagyang sumakit ang mga mata ko sa pagkasilaw. Tulad ng nakita ko kahapon ay bantay sarado ng mga tauhan ni Damon ang bahay kung saan niya ako dinala. I was planning my escape when I heard the door. Ang pagbukas nito ang siyang nakapagpalingon sa akin and I saw Damon, holding a tray of breakfast and a pair of clothes. He’s just wearing an aegean blue muscle shirt and black jogging pants.“You’re awake. You can take a shower first. I brought you clothes.”Parang walang nangyari kagabi na nilapag

My head throbbed. It wasn’t even half the truth, but it made me feel like I was going to explode. I didn’t know what or how to react. Damon’s past experiences were beyond my understanding of what it felt like. I couldn’t possibly understand without experiencing them myself. I could imagine how I might feel, but I couldn’t actually know. I almost entirely knew and understood what I’d experienced firsthand. That must be very traumatizing for him. And the idea of his sufferings made my heart break into a million pieces.I had those life moments that I barely remember. But I’d never been in a situation that stayed in my mind that no matter how I tried to forget it, it’s still there somewhere and that didn’t leave. But Damon . . . he’d been inside of that. Moments made up a person’s life. We didn’t remember much of our lives. Even if it’s somewhere on our mental hard drives, retrieving most memories was out of the question. What we did remember, on the other hand, were the events that had

DAMON LUCIFER DANKWORTHTwenty years. I’d been fighting against the monsters inside my head. These never left me.“K-Kuya . . .” Dimaria whispered.“Shhh, I’m just here. You will be safe.” I hugged her tightly. We’re hiding in Dad’s closet. Dimmy wrapped her small hands around my body and gripped my dark red hoodie, afraid we might get caught. I could feel her body trembling. Inayos ko ang suot niyang putting hoodie. I promised Dad and Mom to protect this family, especially my little sister. I would never let anyone hurt her.We heard footsteps. They were going to enter Dad’s room, where we had run earlier to hide. These guys were up to something. But Dad Davin hadn’t come home yet, and even the body guards he left here were gone. They’re all dead, and that made me feel a bit shaky. I would never forget how unhesitatingly the men who broke into our house shot Dad’s men. They were cruel and evil. I hoped this was just a dream—a bad dream.“K-Kuya, I’m scared . . . I’m scared . . .”The

The day after Damon woke up, we decided to go home. Sa dami ng bahay ni Damon, wala akong ideya kung saan niya kami iuuwi. I was only wearing a salmon pink sleeveless trumpet dress, while Damon was wearing ocean blue polo shirt and black elastic cargo short.“Ibenta mo na kaya ’yong mga bahay mo. Daig mo pa maraming babae sa dami ng bahay mo. Dinaig mo pa rin ’yong mga sundalo na lipat-lipat ng kampo.”Kanina pa ako rito sa kotse na nagrereklamo sa kaniya. Frose was with Drace. Gusto pang makasama ni Frose ang pamangkin-slash-kapatid niya kaya hinayaan na muna namin. Mukha namang magkasundong-magkasundo sila.“That’s just my safe refuge. I never brought a woman there,” pagdadahilan niya na kinaangat ng kilay ko.“As far as I know, you had a lot of women before, huh! You can’t fool me, Damon!”Nakita kong napasimangot siya at nailing bago hinanap ang kamay ko, saka pinagsalikop iyon.“It was just before, alright? No matter how many women come, it won’t change the fact that I am into yo
