Chapter 2

Harriet's Pov:

I walked out of Roxanne's room and met Margaret there in the sitting room. I felt so bittered.

"She won't be able to receive lectures today" I told Margaret as I went to stand by the window.

"Oh! Why's that? What's wrong with her?" She asked but I didn't reply immediately.

"She's angry with me. She wants to get out of here" I said and a brief silence stepped in.

"Well, you wouldn't really blame her, Harriet. She's been treated like a prisoner for nineteen years" Margaret said, standing up.

"Well, what am I supposed to do?" I snapped and turned to look at her.

"My hands are tied, Margaret, and you know it. Damon's out there looking for her and if I let her step a foot out of this building, he's gonna sense her and find her."

"So,,do you plan on keeping her locked up for the rest of her life? Is that what you plan to do?" She asked.

"I don't know Margaret. But the most important thing right now is keeping my daughter safe. You know what Gerald did Damon.

He killed his entire family. He murdered Damon's mother in front of her very eyes when he was a kid and now, all he wants is revenge. And that's why he grew up searching for Roxanne till date because she's Gerald's only child.

Margaret,you won't blame me if I'm scared. Only God knows what Damon will do to Roxanne if he lays his hand on her. I don't know what to do". I sniffed and buried my face in my palm. I was really so scared - scared for Roxanne. Damon's a beast and I can't let him lay his hand on her.

"It's okay Harriet." Margaret said and drew close to console me.

Zara's Pov:

I stood by the door and listened to the moans of the lady as she screamed his name, begging him to stop.

"Oh! Damon, please! Stop it. "Oh! Damon..." At first, all she wanted was to get on his bed. I mean, every lady wants to be in the arms of the Almighty Damon - but now she's finally gotten the opportunity, she's begging for him to stop.

Well, that's one thing about Damon - he's a sex freak. Soon, I stopped hearing the lady's screams and I figured he was done with her. It's possible she actually paased out.

"Come in, Zara" I heard his cold voice from inside and I wondered how he knew I was actually there. I adjusted my skirt and her could opened the door with the file in my hand. I got into the dazzling room and met him taking his jacket from the bed. The so called lady was actually crawling to the bathroom. I took my eyes back to Damon as he backed me and wore on his long black jacket.

"Um...g...good morning sir" I greeted nervously. You wouldn't blame me if I'm acting this way around him. I mean, there's just something about this guy - a strange aura that surrounds him and makes the people around him shiver. He turned and looked at me and I quickly took my eyes to the floor. You don't look at Damon in the eyes when he's staring at you.

"Tell them I'll be with them in a sec" he said cheerlessly and walked away, going into the inner room. Dang! He read my mind again and knew I was coming to tell him the board of directors were waiting.
