I grabbed my car keys from my bed side with the attempt of driving far away from here, but thought about it. Damien would just track my car and find me. And I don't want to be followed. I need some alone time and most especially, I need to have a long talk with my dad.
I sipped my hot chocolate first before storming out of the suite. Maybe I heard Damien call me but I was already in the elevator hitting the button like a mad person. The door finally closed and I noticed an older woman staring at me. She was holding her son in her hand which made me rub my tummy. This is insane. Everything is. I didn't notice tears streaming down my face and the lady tapped me.
"You ok miss?" She asked.
For a moment I wanted to tell her my whole life story right from the point where I made that short walk to the alter and said ' I do ' to becoming Damien's wife. I sobbed louder nodding my head at the lady. She just smiled unconvinced but didn't push it.
The elevator doors finally opened and I rushed out once again like a mad person dressed in only a short transparent maxi dress and flip flops. I hailed a taxi immediately.
"Where to miss"
"Just drive" I snapped at him. He started the car immediately and I slumped down in my seat. Why am I crying this hard? It's my father's doing not mine but still, he's my father and that had me wondering if my marriage to Damien was just a cover for him to get what he wants. My whole life is a lie. That made me sob harder.
"Just drop me here" I motioned to the taxi man. He parked by the side of a park.
"Your fee ma'am"
I remembered I didn't take my wallet with me. I'm not even with my phone to call Damien. I took off my silver earrings and handed it to the man. He stared at it for a while before shrugging and then drove off. I turned toward the park immediately. Here I am in Paris roaming about like a stranger in flip flops.
....
Damien POVJay had already left the moment I ended the call. The suite door was left opened letting me know she ran out. I quickly ran after her. I spotted her in her blue maxi dress getting into the elevator.
"Jay!"
The door closed up too soon and I was left wondering what next to do. I had intentions of telling her about her dad taking money from my company but I didn't want her to find out like that. I ran back to the suite and quickly dialed her number. The sound of her phone ringing by her bed side and next to her wallet made me panic. She's out there without her phone and her wallet?! What if something happens to her? What if she's stranded. Of course she'll be stranded. This isn't home and she's without a dime.
Possibilities ran through my head making me call the hotel management. The man sounded ignorant at first but when I told him who I was, that had him in my suite under ten minutes.
It was obvious some staffs saw her run out but didn't know where exactly. I watched the cctv camera one more time.
"Check out the plate of the taxi she entered" I told the guys handling the computer.
"We got it" he called out.
"Well track it down" I rumbled!
The door to my suite burst opened and I hoped to see Jay run in but instead, Chloe came in quickly. Unlike the normal Chloe I know, she looked like a mess.
"What happened to your makeup?" I said. She almost never goes a day without those. Unlike Jay. Jay! Oh shit.
"Anything?" I asked the hotel manager.
"Well. Yes.. we got the taxi driver's number" he said.
"Call him"
"Damien what's wrong?" Chloe finally spoke. She looked frantic for once.
I was handed the phone.
"Bonjour!" The man on the other line greeted. I went straight to the point.
"I'm calling from Castille Paris. You picked up a lady from this hotel today?"
"Well yes. I picked up many ladies"He boasted in his job.
I groaned. Of course. He's a taxi driver. "I'll send a picture to you" I quickly sent a picture of Jay to the man.
"How about now. Remember her?"
There was a clicking sound in the background. "Why, yes. I remember her now. The sobbing lady"
What the fuck!?
"I'll take it from here sir" the hotel manager said. Good idea, because I was just about blowing the man's head off with curses, probably a bullet too.
"Where did you drop this passenger off at?"
"Well, she really didn't have a place in mind I guess, but I dropped her off at a park"
My alarms rose up. "What Park!" I yelled.
"Calm down you. I'm sure he can't hear clearly with all those yelling" Chloe patted my shoulder. I relaxed a little.
"Parc de butte chaumont"
"Really smooth Damien. What did you do to her to make her go there" Chloe attacked me immediately. Funny how she can go from messy and relaxed to overprotective of her girlfriend. I respect and admire that. I however, can not do that for Joseph.
"What are you talking about?"
"That's the same park her dad proposed to her mom"
What does any of this has to do with the matter at hand. I raised my brow at her.
"Now's not the time for your bickering Chloe" I needed and she had both her hands in her hips.
"Bickering?! Two hours after my friend tells me she loves you, she's running off to some park"
I stopped what I was doing to look at Chloe. "She what?"
"She didn't tell you? She loves you Damien" Chloe scratched her long nails against the table.
I blinked many times before gathering myself again. Jay loves me. I'm not sure how to take that news. Why didn't she tell me? She was probably thinking it won't be mutual. Granted! But, she should know I care about her more than anything in the world, because she cares about me so damn much.
She even cares about my health more than I do and for that alone, I love her.
I grabbed my car key from the bed and started out of the suite.
"I'm going to find my wife"
•••"Hold on to me tight" A raspy voice said behind my ear, and my heart beats fast, my head spinning and some ten thousand butterflies creating a havoc in my belly as I wrapped my arms around him tighter, my skin tingling with anticipation."Fuck, Damien!" I shouted out as he jumped he jumped into the clear blue water, with me latched unto his back for dear life. We both were engulfed by the water, separating as soon as we hit the surface, going under the clear blue ocean.I swam back up, moving my hands to push myself upward and closer to him. one of the perks of being rich and a billionaire with loads of money, is that you can find yourself in an isolated island somewhere in Greece just so you can be on a vacation with your family. And when I say family, I mean family. There's no Elle or Joseph around, even.Just me, Damien
I hold Jay's hand in mine for all the times she was being checked by the doctor. I'm never leaving her side. Her eyes are a bit dull and little as she's still trying to adapt to the brightness of the room and her environment. She's been out for close to four months."How may fingers do you see?" The doctor waves his hand in front of her."Five" she shrugs."Good" Dr Jenkins said before pointing to me. "who's this man?" He asks and my heart beat escalate. Of course she called my name but what if she doesn't know who I am to her."My husband" came her sudden reply and my eyes twinkle. Judy is holding on to Alex, her eyes observing everything that's going on. "Wait... where's..." She touched her flat tummy. "My babies"Here comes the hard part. "You were out for three months and two weeks, Mrs Forrest. We performed a C-S and your baby is perfectly fine" Dr Jenkins said. Judy brings Alex to
Two Months LaterI tuck Alex's hand into his little gloves before putting his beanie on. He's two months old today and I'm taking him to see Jay. She's still not up and I'm still waiting, I'll will keep waiting.I would've stayed at the hospital with Jay throughout the months but I had to be with Alex. Standing in the C-S room that day, my heart couldn't contain the joy I felt when I held Alex in my arms. He was my little miracle, I and Jay's miracle. A little bundle of joy. The tiny thing easily crept into my heart, stealing it. Somehow, he had more of Jay's features on him and it had me contented for the time being.Mrs Roberto walks into the room with a smile on her face. I let her take Alex in her hands, letting her rock him about. She looked proud and happy each time she saw her grandchild and I know how much she wished Jay was here to witness all of this.The room door opens and Mr R
Walking into the police station, my hands clenched and a little smirk of confidence on my face. I don't even have to ask where Bethany is detained because I can hear her loud screams to be released."Get me out of here now or you will pay for this!.... Do you know who I am?"I finally catch a glimpse of her and she doesn't have that glittery look anymore. Her eyes are black from her makeup and her hair is ruffled up."Damien!" She squeaks when she sees me. I turn to Joseph who is by my side. "Call Elle and tell her to go be with Jay in the hospital, I've got a meeting here" I tell him and he nods before walking off a good distance.Bethany has her hands clenching the iron bars."I'm so glad you came for me Damien! This animals had me locked up in here. Please, call Alberto and tell him where I am..." I listen to her rant on and on until I'm done hearing her annoying ch
I open my eyes at the first sun ray that cast on my face. My hands come up to cover my face and I struggle to get up. My whole body is tired as well as my mind. I've spent two weeks in the hospital straight, not agreeing to leave Jay's side. Last night, Elle persuaded me to go home because she'll stay. She said I need to get my shit together.She's right. I look like hell. Last week, we moved Jay back to Miami in my private jet. Her parents have been saying here at the house with me. Joseph come from time to time but I think it's only because he wants to see Elle. I hate that shit that is going on.Most of all, I'm glad Rose is still here through all these. Honestly, I don't know what I'd do without her. My arms cross over my bare chest as I seat up, relaxing my back against the headboard. I need a relief. There was an aspirin by the corner so I took it quickly.The other side of the
~Playlist~To build a home(slowed)- seltmemsetDamien POVI rush to pick Jay up from the floor. She keeps clutching her tummy and it's scaring me like shit. Panic shoots through me when I see blood on her thigh."Joseph call an ambulance now!" I yell and he nods before walking out to make the phone call.Riley comes into the bathroom and grab Bethany before she could sprint for the door. My anger is boiling as I stare at her and she has a pitiful look on her face. Her eyes are dull and scared. She no longer hers that victory winning smile on her face."You bitch!" I growl and her eyes lower. "I swear if anything happens to her or my babies, I will end you""You ende
