All Chapters of Seducing My Fiance's Uncle: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Damien POV A thick, deepening silence settled between us. Eric's eyes were fixed on the letter on the table.I knew he wanted to pick it up. Maybe read it.Immediately, I prayed the only thing Kelvin knew about me was whatever video Eric said he had about us.Because aside from that, I would be doomed.Because I have secrets. A whole lot of secrets.In fact, what is a mafia Don without secrets? Nothing.Eric took the letter from the table and stared at me. "Let me open it. Let's see what's inside."He didn't say it as a question or as someone asking for my permission. He opened it before I could say yes.God! I would be so doomed if it was about the whole marriage.Because Eric, as it stood, didn't know that I was meant to get married to someone.If he knew, he would feel so betrayed.He paused, stared at the letter and then at me."Since when did Kelvin start writing in a strange language?"I snatched the paper from him.It was written in Italian.Which was strange.Too strange, bec

Damien POV"I…" I began but Kelvin cut me short."He has been in his house for as long as possible. Since he left the house, and guess what? Katherine is in Italy, which makes me beg the question. what was he doing in your house?" Kelvin asked.I took a look at his mum, and then Mike, and then at Kelvin.Eric was in a coma and might come out later than expected.In fact, there was no time frame for that.But a few minutes before he was shot, he had confessed his love for me.In the few months that I had known him, he had changed me from a cold mortal to being more humane.So I would keep his secret, his lies, his vulnerability with me until then.I turned to his mother. "Since when did you start questioning me, Cleo?"She rolled her eyes. "Don't try to change the conversation.""But I am not," I said as I quietly stood up. "You asked me a question and I am asking you a question."She looked at Kelvin, then at Mike, and then at me. "I am his mother!" she snapped."Who brought his rapis

Damien POV"Hey… Eric," I called out softly, my shaky hands caressing his face. It had been this way for the past three days.And all the time, he replied with a loud, defining silence.I let out a deep sigh and placed a soft kiss on his head. I was growing weary and tired of waiting.I had been feeling helpless. I had been following the normal rule: you have money, you solve your problem but Eric was different.He was somewhere neither money nor power could reach. And for the first time, I was helpless.I gave his hands a little squeeze, caressing the back of his palm. "I… I know you would laugh if you ever heard me, but I prayed. Your rosary, the one you left in my room. I really don't know how to do it, so I just watched some YouTube videos. So, if you can hear from the other side, please tell your God that you need to come back, because I prayed and I…" I paused.I didn't even know what more to say. I paused and looked at him. I could feel tears burning at the back of my eyes.

Damien POV I walked back to the room, sat on the chair I had sat on a few minutes ago, and watched him as he tightened his hands around the rail and let out a scream, or should I call it a groan. It sounded too low to be a scream. "Arggh!" He paused, sucked in a deep breath, and groaned slowly again. He gripped the rail until his weak veins throbbed through his skin. I looked at my watch, bored. When was he going to stop crying? It had been five fucking minutes since I let him mourn the death of his right hand man and his favourite "strongest" men in his mafia. "Dan, be fast. You don't have all day to mourn." His shoulders paused at my words. He turned slowly to me, his eyes bloodshot red, his head filled with beads of sweat, his skin had turned red from the pain I had caused him, a blood stain smeared his cheeks. He looked utterly defeated. Just the way I had planned. He walked towards me slowly, shoulders fallen, glaring at me. He pointed his shaky hands towards

Damien POVI gave a stiff smile to Katherine and held her hand. Finn followed me at my back, his shoulders squared, ready to do anything.Katherine rushed to the door and opened it, smiling. She took a seat beside Eric, holding his hands, while he stared at her in awe.Doctor Abel stood beside him, his hands in his pocket, with a warm smile.I shook hands with him. "He has gotten better, right?" I asked, trying to read him.He nodded quickly, smiling. "Yes. I knew he would get better quickly. He has been responding to treatment, so it was not a surprise that he woke up today. Katherine has been by his side."I squared my shoulders, avoiding Eric's eyes the whole time, even though I could feel his eyes on me every single time.I looked at Finn. "Close the door."Finn locked the door almost immediately. My eyes surveyed the whole room, from Katherine who sat beside him caressing his face, to the doctor sitting beside him, and then my eyes rested on Eric. He looked so peaceful and reliev
