CHAPTER 58: 58

My footsteps echoed after me as I walked down the hallway,not even a the breeze dared to come here without the scientist permission no wonder no living thing that valued it’s life dared to step their feets on this floor

"You’re back so soon?" He questioned upon me stepping my feet in his office and I couldn’t help but roll my eye

"After two months" i scoffed taking a step closer to him to find him busy with one of those works of his

Doesn’t he ever get tired?

"Aren’t you giving her a lot of freedom?"he suddenly aimed his arrow at me, is he really bent on ruining everything I’ve worked so hard on? "That’s the difference between you and I.." I began trailing my fingers on the cell bar’s Carmela was first locked in "You tend to make to captive feel like one and I tend to do otherwise.

We’re still yet to confirm if your experiment from the other day was a success.."

"It was" he rethroted with a killer look and i couldn’t help but shurd my shoulders

"You are only 99% sure out of a hundred and that one percent troubles me greatly especially after seeing the commotion that happened during the event.."

"It was just a small electric problem...and if my experiment was a huge fail then would you be living lovey-dovey with her?"

Although he sounded rude,he did have a point,she wasn’t the same Carmela who threated me when I tried deceiving her to stay away from Nix..but still I can’t take any chances

"How about we test that one percent?" A sliy thought came to my mind as I picked up the scissors on his table

"Meaning? Don’t tell me you’re planning to perform another murder?"

"Off course no" I waved my hand with a smile on my face as I tossed the scissors aside "if truly she has forgotten everything I don’t want her to have the image of me being a serial killer in her head..naa..I can’t allow that" I tapped on the fish tank in the room and for some weird reason felt I had to keep my distance from it.

"How much do you trust Andrè Dubois?" He threw a question I couldn’t seem to fathom

"I don’t get it?"

"It’s obvious Carmela is planning to give him her full support and you know what that means" he narrowed his eyes my way

"He’ll become the president?"

"Exactly, there are other candidates who have solid grands in the dynasty and strong influence but why did she choose him?"

I looked at the huge screens at the side of the room and couldn’t help but chuckle,he had his eyes everywhere at every time..he surely did make himself the god he wanted to be

"Andrè Dubois is like a dog,loyal to whoever holds its collar..and right now Carmela is the one holding his collar while I’m the one who controls her..

We’ve successfully postponed the dynasty heir coronation and we’re about to have the seal in our possession. Having someone with a high political stand would only make it easier for us to have the dynasty in our palm" I stretched both my hands imagining myself in such position and the thought of it sent shivers down my spine making my hair stand

"Quit daydreaming and put your plans into action..the only way we can succeed is if you keep that child under your control and get rid of Nix Dean..

He’s the villain so you have to play your part as the hero maturely,now if you’ll excuse me I’d appreciate if you give me my space"

I felt like smashing his head till it squished like a watermelon but I still needed him to achieve my aim.

He always has his face mask on, concealing his identity from even me, his partner, I guess we both share something in common trust issues.

I can’t trust him and he can’t trust me making us even.

Well he’s the least of my problem and if I plan on getting rid of each and every problem of mine then I’ll have to do it accordingly starting with Nix Dean.

Let’s see how he’ll react seeing the one thing he treasure most in my possession.

"Hey babe where are you?" I tilted my neck being met with silence then a sudden thud sound

"I just left the Benoit Lefebvre estate and I’m headed to Louis’ birthday party..why do you ask?"

"How about I tag along?" I didn’t really need to ask as her every movement is reported to me but I also needed to ask incase she disapproved

"Mr Floquet, tell the truth, do you already miss me?" And this was what I loved more about her in the past two months she’s been living with me

She had the sweet, sour and bitter sides.

I’ve experienced her sour side and now it’s her sweet side and I hope it never switches to her bitter side

But was she always like this with Nix?

"No" I smirk

"lies...Meet me at the entrance of Moreau villa by seven don’t be late okay"

"Okay" I ended the class as I swinged my hand with a smile

"No matter what I’m never letting her go back to you Nix Dean."

. . .

The night turned a deaf ear to the world and a blind eye to the activities that went on in it.

As the number of people at the Moreau estate increased, so did the secret of the building. Gaze of warmth,admire,hatred and concerns all fell on Louis But he didn’t care as all he wished to do was to enjoy his time before taking up the responsibilities of the nation on him.

Damian and Carmela walked hand in hand into the hall, attracting the attention of few who were aware of their identity and showed fear through their gaze,others who complimented their combustibility and others who tried to tear them apart with his gaze

"I dont plan on spending much time here so I’ll go get the job done" Carmela whispered about to take her leave but he drew her back into his arms coming to are level "Aren’t you forgetting something" he whispered and she looked at him with raised brows wondering if she had forgotten anything she needed to complete what she ought to do. As she opened her mouth to speak,she was silenced by his lips making her chuckle the moment their lips detached as she tapped on his nose "Naughty" was all that came out of her mouth before she resumed her steps.

Feeling satisfied with his actions,he turned to the direction he felt the death gaze from but could no longer find his guest making his smile grow even wilder

"This is going to be fun".

"F**k!" Carmela exclamed as she bumped into a waister, spilling all the contents in the tray he held on her clothes

"I’m so sorry madame,I’m sorry" he brought out his handkerchief about to help her clean up but is stopped by her with a forced smile "it’s okay,please just watch where you are headed next time" Her words gentle but yet felt like a scolding to him but still he didn’t feel the need to hold a gurge as he was paid extremely well to do such a small task.

"Excuse me where is the rest room?" She approached a maid who pointed to the room in their opposite direction making her curse her luck,she just wanted to get the job done once and for all but here she was touring around the house in search for a rest room . Without thinking twice,she bardged into the room,and the moment the door clicked the electricty supply went off making her wonder if it was normal as there were still power supply outside the room.

Feeling weird about the whole situation,she turned to take her leave but the door was locked.

"Hello,can someone hear me?" She called out but got no response instead all we could hear was footsteps approaching her. Attacking wasn’t an option since she was unware of who she was facing nor could she see since the room was dark and so she prepared her self in advance.

Seeing the person approaching her get even closer,she took a few steps backwards untill she was backing the door

"What do you want?" The word finally sloped out of her tounge with no hint of fear but suddenly felt shivers run down her spine as the person wrapped his hand around her waist pulling her closer to him "You.." he said their faces an inch away from one another. She felt her guard fall flat in the presence of the stranger before her as she forgot to breath depriving her lungs of the oxygen it needed "Breath.." He said brushing his lips against hers and leaving her clueless "Huh?" but instead of a response he snatched her lips with his, slowly bedding her tounge with his as they mixed their DNA’s. His tounge invaded every conner of her mouth as it continued playing tag with hers and a mischievous smile formed on his lips against hers seeing how she still couldn’t catch up with him after all these while.

Carmela on the other hand didn’t protest instead she melted in his arms,as she slowly placed her hands over his neck pulling him closer to her while his other hand cupped her face.

But her eyes sudden flew open as realization of her actions dawned on her

"Who are you?" She took two steps away from him as she panted for breath "Beloved" Nix called as the light came back on and she raised an eyebrow giving him the questioning look

"I’m sorry I thought you were my wife" his tone none challent as he raised his hand showing off the ring he was wearing
