Aiden smirked widely seeing his cousin glaring at him deadly and like a raging beast ready to pounce and rip apart it's prey.Damien was beyond rage and Emma felt it. She was startled and her body started trembling on its own. Her trembling body next to his made him realise she was next to him. He instantly loosened his anger and calmed his nerves down not to scare her anymore.She was already afraid of him and the last thing he wanted was to not upset her and make her even more afraid of him.Aiden watched everything with keen interest. He always knew his cousin had a huge ego and was so quick and hot tempered and couldn't control his outbursts but this was on another level.For the first time, Damien let aside his manly ego and anger because of the little frail body beside him. His green eyes darted towards her. He studied her features and a wide smirk enveloped his lips.She was indeed simple but damn she looked ravishing. His eyes moved and stopped at her delicious lips. The red l

Emma slowly became comfortable around Aiden. She began to enjoy his company and presence. She never knew he was a jokster that always cracked jokes. His jokes made her laugh hard.She suddenly stopped herself. Her mind beagn to tussle and flooding her vision with memories of her life. When was the last time she genuinely smiled and laughed. She couldn't remember the day when she was so happy with her life.A tear drop fell Instantly from her eyes down to her soft cheeks. Aiden used his finger to wipe it off from her cheeks. "A pretty girl like you shouldn't be having tears of sadness in your eyes towards some jerk." Aiden spoke calmly getting Emma to face him. She knew he was right. Her tears were because of him and only him! The demon himself.She sighed and slightly nodded.All the while Claire brought Damien towards the other side of the hall and called for a waiter who arrived straight to their direction. She eyes at the waiter who nodded with a smile.He approached them. She too

Emma slowly walked up the stairs. She initially thought of going to her own room and spending the night there but she knew that what happened at the event tonight was far from over to Damien. She saw in his eyes that he had questions for her. The thought shooked her as she walked up the stairs.She reached the top of the stairs and lazily walked towards his room. She looked around hoping to spot Sarah and come to her rescue but when she got into the mansion, there was utter silence meaning everyone had retired to their rooms for the day.She tried to buy herself some time by walking like a snail putting one foot and a few minutes later putting down the other foot slowly. But still she reached the his door in ten minutes. She saw it was slightly opened.She peeked inside and saw his back facing her. He was standing with both hands in his pocket as he stared outside through the large open window. The night brought along with it a wonderful cool breeze that entered the room.Emma gulped

Damien stuck to her body like glue not willing to let go of her so soon. He was weeping like a child afraid of loosing his most precious thing in the world.Emma didn't move from her spot and just kept staring blankly down at him. This was the first time she had seen him this vulnerable. He was so fragile right now that to her he didn't resemble the Damien who was always in control over any situation but tonight he was sulking and crying bitterly."Please don't distance yourself from me! It hurts and breaks my heart. I love you so much. I can do anything for you Emma!" His raspy shaky cracked yet deep voice said pushing his face deeper into her stomach.Emma looked down at him and processed his words. He had again confessed to being madly in love with her. But why does his actions speak a different meaning.According to her, a person who loves someone will never think of even harming a hair on that person let alone rape and torture her. She shooked her head as those terrifying images

Emma blinked her eyes repeatedly. She groaned in her sleep feeling the sun's rays peeking into her eyes. She slowly wakes up from her sleep and looks around. She was alone in the room.She sighed and got up from the bed before going to the bathroom to do their morning routine. Nowadays she woke up late than usual and she didn't know why. She was glad to have Sarah with her. Sarah had already gotten Miles ready for school an hour ago.She took a quick shower and wore a simple t shirt along with a blue set of jeans. She nearly combed her brown hair Straight before heading towards the kitchen downstairs.She was walking towards the stairs when she quickly spotted Sarah holding a tray containing some food into a room at the far corner of the hall. Sarah walked in and shut the door behind her.She hadn't completely explored the mansion even after staying for so long. Sarah often suggested this but Emma declined as she never considered the mansion as her home. She had hope that someday she
