R18+ CHAPTER AHEAD Damian POV ★★★3 weeks later★★★ “ How were you able to that?“ She passed the herb tea to me, with a stren expression. What she did to Diana almost kept me in my own shell—hidden and shy enough to voice. She smiled slowly at me. “Nothing, just being my father's daughter.“ The words reminded me about her father and everything he once done. Alex father had lot of history attached to his name—men and women he killed to claim things that matters. He had always hid it from his family and now the daughter is saying so, just makes ask my inner self. “Nice. Your father—” “—you shouldn't worry about that day, you should worry about yourself and your health.“ She cut off my words. Her expression becoming more serious. I gently sipped the tea and scanning the room with my eye. She sat opposite me, her face stucked into a book. At some point, she just have a look that dragged my attention. “What's wrong?“ She looked at me. “Reading na

Alex’s POVThere was something in the air—thick, heavy, wrong. Like a warning.She stepped forward.Instinctively, I backed away, my heartbeat picking up speed.Everything about her screamed danger—from the slick darkness of her hair to the way her heels clicked against the floor like gunshots. She didn’t walk. She owned the ground beneath her.“Who are you?” I asked, my voice unsteady.She cocked her head slightly, her lips curling into a smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes.“You already asked that,” she said coldly. “And I hate repeating myself.”Each step she took made my skin prickle. She wasn’t just intimidating—she was terrifying.Suddenly, a door creaked open behind her.Damian walked in, his face smeared with dirt and blood. My body jolted toward him instinctively, but before I could reach him, a large man grabbed me from behind, his arms like steel.“Let me go!” I shouted, thrashing, but his grip only tightened.The woman stopped just inches from me. Her breath mingled wit

Alex POV My whole body felt rough edged—ny arms felt as if, it has been tied with thick ropes for ages. I managed to sit up. I looked at my both side, but there was no sign of Damian. I didn't know how well to feel it react about that, but a simple thought came in. “maybe his out—”“Ouch.“ My voice was barely above a whisper, as I stretched out my neck. I relaxed on my back, leaning a bit backward to wall. Damian, wasn't healthy enough to have gone out from the Ward, or maybe he just went to take a shower and relax from all the whole stressful activities. “How are you doing?“ Simi asked as she walked into the room, with a smile. I nodded at her, almost returning same smile to her. Ftom her facial expression, she seemed a bit happy and maybe relieved, but that wasn't going same with me. Within me, I was depressed—angry. She sat beside me, while I just sat there thinking about my life. And how to run away from him atleast. Hours passed, and Damian

---Damian’s POVI knew exactly what she wanted from me—my body. Nothing more, nothing less.I carefully got out of the hospital bed, doing everything I could not to disturb Alex’s sleep. She looked too peaceful, and after everything, she deserved that rest.Quietly, I tiptoed toward the door, my heart pounding with every step.This mission could cost me my life—or, if I was lucky, finally give me a sliver of peace.“Sir, where are you going?”The nurse’s voice snapped me back to reality. I turned around slowly, masking my nerves with a small, practiced smile.“Just heading to the restroom,” I said calmly.She nodded. “Alright, sir.”I waited for her to walk away before I made another move.But my mind was already drifting—to that night with Diana.The last time we’d been together.The heat, the sweat, the sound of her voice echoing through that abandoned warehouse. It wasn’t love. It never had been. Just lust—dark and consuming.I shook the memory off and stepped out of the hospital.

Damian’s POVI couldn’t take my eyes off her—and I wasn’t even sure why.Alex was fast asleep, her breathing soft and steady, but my mind was anything but calm. Thoughts raced through my head, sharp and relentless.“Diana…” I muttered the name under my breath.My ex-wife.She was the kind of woman who would go to any lengths to bring me down. A queen in her own world—powerful, cunning, and dangerous. She surrounded herself with influential men, and her mere presence could strike fear into the average person’s heart.I rubbed my temples, my jaw clenching. “Damn it.”I could feel the anger rising, burning through me. I knew this had her fingerprints all over it. Who else would be bold enough—or cruel enough—to put Alex in harm’s way?I reached for my phone, the cracked screen lighting up in my hand. I scrolled through my contacts until I saw her name glaring back at me.Without hesitation, I tapped it.The phone rang once—twice—then connected.“Damian!” Her voice was louder than I remem

Alex’s POVI couldn’t make sense of the nurse’s words. Everything felt heavy, like the weight of the entire situation was pressing down on me, clouding my thoughts.“No matching blood, and he’s already lost so much!” she said.I sank onto the hospital bench, those words echoing in my head on repeat.Simi, the maid, paced nervously in front of me. Her worry was plain on her face.“Ma’am, what do we do now? He needs a blood transfusion immediately!”I stood up, my mind made up.“Test my blood. See if I’m a match.”The nurse nodded. “No problem. Come with me.”I took a deep breath and followed her, doing everything she instructed.I couldn’t let him die. I couldn't just stand by and watch him lose his life.When the results came back, we were a perfect match.They began the transfusion, taking my blood and preparing it for him. I tried to rest in the waiting area, but sleep wouldn’t come. My body was exhausted, but my mind refused to settle.I felt tense, drained, and deeply uncomfortabl
