LOGINAdrian's POV “It's a new day indeed.” I said to myself, pulling up to the house. Maybe it was a dumb decision, seeing as many people had the right to be on my neck, literally. “Your mother is up.” One of my attendants spoke in my ear. “All the better, then.” That was meant to be sarcastic, but he didn't seem at ease. “What's up?” j looked at him, forcing him to look down at Damon's car keys which he'd taken from me. “She has a visitor.” He added. “I don't think Ma would mind my intrusion. Besides, I've got to shower me’self.” I patted his back. He was quiet, once again the young innocent boy I employed a couple of months ago. “On second thought, I shall love to see her before going up.” I watched as his face crumpled and relaxed He was hiding something, and it better be for my sake. “Wait here.” I said to him two doors away from Mama. I knocked once and let myself in. “What the fuck?!” I yelled. The sight wasn't unusual, the time of day was. Ever since
Emily's POV “If you guys can keep it low, I promise I won't interfere.” I said upon barging into Damon's office.. Luacas and Damon had each other headlocked, spinning like little kids. “Get out of here.” Lucas yelled, trying to protect me. “I'm bothered by the noise.” I stood at the door, arms akimbo, watching how blood spotted tiny dots on Damon’s cloth. “Leave!” He yelled again. Damon took advantage of the split second Lucas looked up at me to strike him on the head. I was incensed, but not mad enough to want to fight. One minute I was kissing my teeth at how stupid they both looked, fighting in an office on Damon's first day back after an unannounced leave, and the next I was knocked to a corner by a blow to my head. “See what you've done!” Lucas angrily pushed Damon to the window, and was about to throw him down the entire thirteen stories of Nevada when I rushed to him. “Lucas please go to the hospital.” I begged him as he let himself be torn off Damon by me
Damon's POV “Just go on with what you have to say.” Lucas snapped. “You don't tell me what to do!” I yelled at the top of my voice. All three of them didn't even break a sweat “Your most diligent employees are on their way to work. I'm sure you must have something planned for them.” Adrian spoke. “First on my list,” I started finally, still recovering from my outburst, “How has security been? Any threats from the borders?” I asked Lucas. “None. My guys have been less busy for a while now. I was almost thinking of downsizing capacity. It seems we do not have as much threat to require such a large army.” Lucas replied. “That sounds good. I hope you are still engaging with all your intel's though. Remember these bastards live to strike when we're the most vulnerable. It's a pleasant surprise that nothing happened when I was gone.” I tapped my fingers on the table, thinking. “Maybe that's because you had the good sense not to make my absence public.” I said, thanking him
Damon's POV “I never saw that coming.” I held my head as my nerves shot up. Adrian's problem had never been my problem, not since when we were kids. But I can't deny feeling an extreme sense of duty to him, especially as he saved me from death's lair. “I'm gonna need details.” I said. “If you're asking for a reason. I don't have any. I just did it. That bitch has had too much control over my life for a very long time. I got tired of it. I badly wanted a test, but the idea of having my first heir mothered by her didn't sit well with me.” I confessed. “When she needed you the most.” I soliloquised. “Come on. If you heard both sides, you'd feel for me too. She's the reason I lost Emily.” He said. “That's just foolish talk right now.” I brushed it off. “If she wanted to be kept, she would've. I was married to the woman.” “Back to the case at hand…” Adrian drew me out. “What exactly are you scared of about Lilian? From where I stand, she's a bastard.” I flipped.
Adrian's POV “I'm not gonna be at ease till you tell me what you're up to, you know?” Damon said. I'd driven in silence for the last twenty minutes, and I was loving it. “Where do we go?” I asked him instead. “You don't need me captive?” He asked. “Whatever would I be doing with a grown ass man like you?” I asked, disgusted. “Did anyone never keep you in suspense?” I asked surprised. “Suspense is never cool with you. What's up?” He pressed further. “Man, I can't run this shit alone. Emily and Lucas have their own shit going on, and I'm all alone out there.” I said “Isn't that what you've always wanted?” Damon chuckled. “Not like this man. I have a rogue brother.” I burst out. “You've gotta be joking.” Damon said wide eyed. “I wish I was. I got informed of him a couple of days ago. The family lawyer. Apparently, he was supposed to stay hidden for a couple of years after my father passed, that was to ensure my mother didn't send the miserable young thing
Damon’s POV “When does this end?” I asked the bastard who's just passed all manners of hard drugs through my veins only hours ago. “How are you still able to talk?” White Wolf groaned in his seat. The ropes had already begun scalding my hand, and I'd grown tired of thugging it out. I had fresh injuries that needed attention. “You're going to have to find something stronger than that. I did all those as a boy.” I huffed. “My goal is not to knock you out, trust me. I'd have killed you if I wanted to do that. I need you to be conscious enough while you make my daughter a mother.” He bragged. It's the third time in the past two days that he's used those same exact string of worlds. I remember the first time Vera, the bastard I'd employed and used to make Emily jealous, walked in with only a fishnet covering. Even with my limited movement, I fought her off. The next day, it earned me a silver chain on my wrist. My wolf who was already extremely mad at me was put to dormancy
Lucas’ POV “It's been over three hours.” I shook Emily up. “What's the time?” She asked sleepily. “It's eleven am.” I answered. It was a good idea to sleep the drugs out of my system, what she didn't know is that I can't sleep out the amount I'd dosed on. While she shuffled between consci
Emily's POV I stayed still till I was sure that I had no company anymore. Matter of fact, I watched by my window as Vera and her hooded man made it out. Another thing I took note of was that the security guy was quite familiar with him. It was one of two things. Either he worked in Nevada, or
Emily's POV I hadn't seen Adrian too in a while. Not after that night that went badly. It was unkike him to not reach out. I was starting to think he'd reconsidered and decided to have a family with Lillian instead. Maybe the three-to-one was too much for him. Hell, I wasn't complaining. Who's
Damon's POV “When last did you speak to Lucas?” Emily asked. That's the first thing she'd said to me in about a week now. “Been a minute. What's up?” I asked, trying not to let my excitement show. “It's been radio silence. Just wondering.” She said, trying not to look too bothered. “I'l
