I woke up as Damon got up from the bed, I wanted to follow after him but I held myself back, my mind spiraling with different scenarios as I tried to predict what could be going on in that head of his.

He was open at the the same time secretive about what his family did to him.

Taking in a deep breath I collected my thoughts and soon after Damon re-entered the room, tip toeing back to the bed.

Laying down, he kissed my forehead while tracing my hairline with his thumb.

"I promise to protect you and our marriage, I'm not going to let them ruin this as well, I promise."

He kissed my forehead once more before carefully returning to the cuddle, I know he said out that out loud but they sounded like words of affirmation.

Like he wanted to assure himself everything would be as he planned.

How I wish he would let me help, a problem shared was half solved wasn't it?

Or did I prove to be a spouse he couldn't rely on in such situations?

Shaking off that thought I tried to think positive,

  • Return of the forsaken Heiress: Regret of her Ex-husband    Your family

    DAMONThe whole place was quiet after Justin and Jenna left.Elisa and I agreed to avoid sleepovers to prevent them walking into me having one of those moments.Thankfully, no question was asked by the couple, and they willingly complied to the rule.We were in the bedroom, my head on Elisa's lap, her hand running through my hair, when I heard her sigh."It would soon be time right?" She asked, concern evident in her voice."Yes." I answered, waiting without doing anything was somehow nerve wrecking but he approached Elisa the first time, I don't want that monster hurting her, I'll rather go through the ringing ear and immense headache."I'm worried Damon." Elisa said, almost like a whisper causing me to furrow my brows."What's wrong? I'll be fine, I promise." I soothed, was it because of my parents?"I keep having these weird dreams, something keeps telling me you're going to die when the times up."As much as I wanted to act unbothered by that to ease her concerns, my body couldn't

  • Return of the forsaken Heiress: Regret of her Ex-husband    Get rid of my parents

    DAMONSeeing my parents standing in front of me brought back all those nasty memories I had tried hard to forget.I thought they didn't bother with me anymore, I assumed they would want nothing to do with me after I left.What more do they want for me?As a child I tried being as perfect as I could but whatever I did was never enough for them, any mistakes I made, no matter how little would always come with a punishment, severe ones.As for the punishments in particular, I don't even want to think about."Big brother." Bella squealed and threw her hands around me almost instantly, making me soften a bit.Bella was the only thing that kept me pushing during those dark hours.I was thankful she didn't have to face what I did and was mostly kept in the dark about it.My parents adored her, I indulged her but leaving to come to this country I planned to put everything behind me.In my past life it had taken me so long to escape my parents grasp, one that ended in me committing a crime, mu

  • Return of the forsaken Heiress: Regret of her Ex-husband    A son

    ELISA With Justin teasing Damon, he unintentionally revealed the fact that he hates children.To be honest I noticed he stayed at arm's length with Liam but I never thought too much of it.Was that why he's acting so withdrawn?Had I once again made a decision based on myself alone?Liam quickly distracted me and I focused on him till we reached home, I wanted to make the first move to speak to Damon but he immediately announced he was going to the kitchen.He was probably still mad, I might over reacted a little bit.Then the door bell rang, Justin stood up in a hurry to take it thinking it was Jenna but instead he froze at the door calling for Damon.What could be so important that could need Damon's attention? Was this another one of his antics? He was a grown ass man for God sake.I picked up Liam holding him closely to myself just in case."Aunt Eli, is everything okay?" I was about to respond that we were playing a game when what I heard next stopped me."Hello son." An aged vo

  • Return of the forsaken Heiress: Regret of her Ex-husband    Parents

    DAMONElisa asking for an IVF trial after 4 years of marriage was not something I expected.I was okay with it being just us two.Two of us against the whole world, nothing more, nothing less.I love Eli, fuck, I love her so much I can hardly remember days I went by without loving her.Having a child was a whole other different story.I don't know if I would be able to love them right.Thanks to Elisa's parents being there in the early stage of my life, I have an iota of what parental love looks like, but such things are worth nothing if they were not from your own blood and flesh.After Elisa told me about her decision to try out for IVF I found myself occasionally drifting in thoughts.Elisa would make a great mother, I have seen her with Liam, the two are a pair I adore watching, though I barely had any interaction with Liam.Another thing that bothered me was my deal, the time was almost over but I was scared something would happen.After all humanity has never registered the devi

  • Return of the forsaken Heiress: Regret of her Ex-husband    Distant

    ELISAEver since that day Damon has been awfully reserved, he would respond when I'm speaking to him and would still act normally but most of time of the time he looked so out of it.I've tried to bring up the matter several times but he would always find a reason to leave the room.Maybe I was being too forward, I should have probably read the room before springing the topic of IVF onto him.I glanced at Damon who sat beside me focused on some work in his laptop.Subconsciously I touched my ring and fiddled with it, this was eating me up inside.My thoughts were interrupted when I felt a warm hand cover mine."Are you good?" Damon asked me softly and I forced a smile at him and looked away."Do you need anything? Water? I could call the flight attendant."A sigh escaped my lips as I felt like face palming myself.If he wanted to be mad why can't he just straight up say what's up with him not just act withdrawn and caring, although I tried to pursue the matter, I wasn't doing it whole
