DAMON
The words of the strange guy I met this morning played in my head about him rescuing me from those who would have raped me mercilessly. The detective looked at my expression and said "so you do remember something?".
But I shook my head saying "no sir" the calm scary mood in his face changed to an angry one " so you don't know who rescued you?" He asked with an angry tone.
"Alright then! Sorry Miss Harrison but you are under arrest" he added " but sir why you clearly saw it I was drunk I clearly can't remember anything" I said pleading with him..
"Until the culprits are provided you still remain a suspect," he said. A policeman who seemed to be listening to our conversation walked in and told me to stand up with all my pleading. They ignored me and took me to the cell.
I was in the cell from noon till the evening. The police came and served stale bread and warm water to the inmates. When I saw the bread I hated it and tossed it aside. I only drank the water because I haven't had anything since morning but my stomach was making a grumbling sound so the inmates noticed my reaction and laughed.
I bend my head between my knees in shame. Suddenly a policewoman walked in and mentioned my name, urging me to come out.
I walked out and we headed to the detective office. I saw a tall, muscular, handsome figure. He had curly brown hair,a pair of brown eyes and a sharp jawline. He stood looking at me.
"You are free Miss Harrison," the detective said, handing me my phone. The tall figure glanced at the detective and they shook hands.
"Can we Miss?" The tall figure asked as I nodded my head walking behind him. When we were out of the police station I finally broke the silence between us and asked politely
"please sir who are you?" He glanced at me for some time before he said "call me Damon," "how did you know me and why did you rescue me?" I asked again, "when you meet my boss you ask him these questions" he said sarcastically, with that one reply I kept my mouth shut.
We headed to a Mercedes Maybach. He opened the door for me to get in. I must say this is the second time I am entering another expensive car on just the most bad and stressful day of my life. I wonder who his Boss could be. I never knew there was someone inside the car with me in the passenger seat.
Until Damon opened the car and got in and asked "boss where should we head to now?" Then a deep husky voice responded "drive to the hotel" I then turned my head and my gaze met a pair of deep blue eyes. The strange thing is that those eyes seem to glow in the dark, "it's Adrian" I said inwardly.
Our eyes locked for some time. Thanks to the street lamp I was able to see his face properly. He was dressed in black tuxes leaving the upper buttons of his shirt open exposing his broad thick smooth chest. I see veins in his hand. The shirt hugged his body exposing his biceps. They were tempting to stroke softly.
But no. I came back to my senses "please can I go to the hospital to see my dad" I asked politely this time around regretting why I sounded rude to him earlier.
"Your dad was discharged and all his bills for drugs and treatment all sorted" Damon said behind the wheels. I felt relieved. "But can I go home and be with him" I added " no! you need to rest and eat " this time around it was Adrian that replied to me his voice carried power and authority it was more of like a command.
"I want to go home. I don't know you guys, what if I am getting kidnapped or maybe you are going to murder me the way you murdered those men?" I said angrily, not regretting a word. With those words everywhere went silent.
Adrian glanced at me, giving me a deadly gaze that sent chills all over my body. He came closer to me close enough that I could smell his sweet fragrance and his hot breath hitting my ears. I shivered with just his proximity.
"If I wanted you dead I would have left you with those men we murdered" he whispered huskily in my ear those words gave me goosebumps. He sniffed a little and moved back.
" And you stink," he added. I felt ashamed of myself.
Soon after we approached the hotel, it was very huge. I noticed only powerful rich men and women in the hotel. Adrian got down from the car pulling my hand as if I were a child. We held hands till we got to the receptionist desk and the lady smiled and handed Adrian a key card. I could feel all eyes on us.
We headed to our room. He let go of my hands "go take your bath" he commanded taking off his suit I couldn't help but stare at him when he caught I shift my gaze.
The room was really big. It had a living room, a bedroom and a kitchen. I headed to the bedroom leaving Adrian in the living room.
It had a king sized bed. I saw some towels in the bedroom.
I took off my clothes and tied the towel around my body and headed for the bathroom.
The bathroom was really big. It had a huge bathtub. I filled it with water and filled it with soap I got in and let the hot water warm me up cause the weather was really cold I took the sponge and gently scrubbed my skin.
I felt a gaze on me. I turned and met a pair of blue eyes.
