DAMIEN POV...... 
Hmm..... what a long tiring day, I was about going to my bathroom, I stop to halt when I heard my phone ringing, I checked the caller ID and it was mom, I grunted am tired of mom persuading me to get married
"hey mom"
"how was work"
"Work is fine but so stressful"
"hope is not stressing you out"
"am fine mom, and you how are you"
"hmm.. am good, except for the fact that you  don't wanna get married" she said
"not now mom, am just returning from work please" I replied flatly
"well son can you come over tomorrow for a family dinner", I know before invite me over for a family dinner then she wanna discuss something
"hello son are you there"
"yeah mom"
"so are we expecting you"
"yeah by what time"
"7:00pm"
"alright bye mom"
"bye son"
I hang up and walked towards the bathroom, I took a cold shower, I walked to my closet and changed into my robes,  I laid down on my bed looking blankly at my ceiling till I fell asleep,  I was woken by the sound of my alarm, I stretched my hands towards my bed stand with my head still on my bed to snooze the alarm cause I'm not ready to get up from the sweet morning sleep, after thirty minutes of sleep I got off the bed to the washroom, I took a warm bath then prepared for work, I informed my chauffeur to prepare the white rolls Royce I walked to my basement I met my chauffeur standing behind the door of my car, he opened the door immediately he saw me, I entered the car and he entered through the other side, after a few minutes drive I looked out of the window and saw something that caught my attention, I quickly told my chauffeur to slow down, I saw a young woman standing by the walk way, wow she's dawn pretty she has a round face, long flowing hair that poured down her lower back, her capturing set of blue eyes, long lashes, pointed nose, nice shaped pink rosy lip, full breast size, don't get me wrong her breasts are not too big just normal size, her nicely curved body was pointed out perfectly through the gown that hugged her like a second skin,"wow!!!"
I have never looked over at a woman this way, just when I was admiring the beautiful creature before me, a taxi parked in front of her, she got in and the car zoomed off, I quickly ordered Rey to move the car
"Rey move the car "he looked at me surprised "okay sir" we trailed the car till it stop to halt in front of a supermarket, I saw her walk into the supermarket, I waited patiently for her to come out for what seems like hours, but why am I even trailing her, what has come over me, I turned to Rey "move the car"
"to where sir"
"to my company idiot"
I answered really pissed by his question, we arrived at my office few minutes later, why do I feel so restless and Unsettled, I was brought back to reality by my best friend, what is he doing here
"Damien why are you standing there like a  zombie" I walked into my office leaving the door open for Nathan, "you haven't answered my question, Damien what up with you" he asked for the second time, what on God's name should I tell him
"nothing just thinking" I answered flatly
"what do mean by that"
"well Nathan, I saw this girl on my way to the office and she caught my attention, since then I haven't been thinking straight"
"and that's what I call love at first sight"
I glared at him "that why I never wanted to answer you" I said and he chuckled lightly
"so did you approach her, wait don't tell me you didn't" he looked at me like he was expecting a yes from me,
"hell no Nathan I only trailed her....."he cut me off "to her house" he asked and I looked away before answering "no to a supermarket, I waited for her to come out but she didn't, what do you expect me to do, stay there waiting for her to come out abandoning my work hell no Nathan" I said putting emphasis on his name, he just looked at me with a how could you look, I waited for him to say something but he didn't, so I decided to break the silence between us "stop looking at me that way I will send my investigator to tri......"I was cut off by the ring of my telephone, I answered
"hello"
"hello Mr. Damien someone's here to see you" my secretary said over the phone
"what's the name" I asked
"she said her name is Zara sir" she answered "let her in" what on earth is Zara doing here I wondered, there was a knock on my door "come inside"
Zara walked in she was putting on a crop top and mini skirt, she looks hot, I quickly took my eyes off her before she notice me staring, Nathan stood up and excused us
"hey Damien catch up later"
I just nodded and he left smirking, I noticed Zara staring Lustly at me and it made smile, I cleared my throat, and she quickly compose herself
"done checking me out" I said with a smirk
She gave me a duh look and walked towards my desk and took a seat before speaking "Damien how have you been, I missed you a whole lot you know" I looked at her with disbelief, we only had sex once and that was a mistake, I was drunk that day and she took advantage of my condition and I hate her for that, I looked at her in disgust, "didn't you miss me I have been out of the country for months and you didn't even call or text me, but don't worry I have forgiven you we can start afresh babe" she said standing up from her sit and coming towards my direction, I stood up from my sit really pissed "get out" I said coldly and her jaw dropped she quickly cupped my chin and placed a kiss on my lip, I pushed her away from me "get outta my office now" she took her bag and left seeing how pissed I am she didn't make another attempt, I ran my hand through my hair, I picked up my telephone and placed a call across my secretary, I spoke up immediately she picked "don't wanna see that girl anywhere close to my office again" I ended the call and sat down.
