Third person POV
The living room was a chaotic scene, a world away from Alixana Marie Duke usual quiet routine.
She packed her belongings into a black duffel bag, her gaze occasionally flitting to the framed photos on the wall. Each one held a story, a memory, a reminder of the life she was leaving behind.
Damian, watched her with a mixture of pride and sorrow.
"You're sure about this, Marie?" Damian asked, his voice a low rumble, opposite to the vibrant energy of the girl before him. "The Green Garden program is... dangerous."
Marie smiled, her emerald eyes twinkling with a mischievous glint. "Don't worry, Dad. I've got this."
Marie's mission was to befriend Miexha Verra, the heir to Wayne Academy, a prime target for the Garden's influence.
She picked up a photo of Miexha Verra, the heir to the Wayne Academy, a young woman with wavy brown hair and captivating hazel eyes.
"She's my type," Marie murmured, a hint of amusement in her voice. "I'll make sure to be close to her."
Damian sighed, a shadow of sadness crossing his face. "She's the target, Marie. The Zenips are after her."
He looked at another photo, this time of Zatariel Wov, the son of Zaren Wov, the CEO of InterMall.
Zatariel Wov was a prodigy, excelling in everything from academics and sports to the arts and culinary arts. He was a dangerous wildcard, a potential pawn for the Garden, and Damian wanted Marie to be his shadow.
"He's a bigger threat than Miexha," Damian warned, his gaze hardening. "Please keep an eye on him, Marie."
Marie nodded, her smile unwavering. "Don't worry, Dad. I'm not going in blind. Kyliah Vargas is going to be my classmate. You can trust her. She's one of us"
He paused, his gaze hardening as he looked at a picture of a young man with a charming smile. "The one you can't trust is Thyron Sebastian. He's a young businessman, owns a pet shop. He's too suspicious. Keep your distance."
Marie glanced at the picture, her emerald eyes narrowing. "He has the face of a villain," she murmured.
"I know," Damian said, a wry smile playing on his lips. "He's a dangerous one."
Marie looked up at Damian.
"I still can't believe you're going to school with me, Dad," she said.
Damian chuckled, his eyes softening as he looked at his creation. "It's a bit of a twist, isn't it? But we'll make it work."
Marie's gaze drifted to a picture of a woman with scarlet hair, a woman who had been Damian's love, a woman whose heart he had consumed.
"You're still hoping she's Mom, aren't you?" she asked softly.
Damian nodded, a flicker of pain crossing his face. "I just wanted to see her again."
Marie embraced him, her touch gentle but firm. "Dad, I'm here with you. I'm always grateful that you created me and raised me with love. I'm going to enjoy this, Dad. I'm going to make friends, maybe even fall in love. You gave me this chance to experience a normal life, and I'm going to make the most of it."
"Marie," Damian's eyes welled up with tears.
"You're such a crybaby, Dad," she teased, her voice laced with affection. They both laughed, a sound that echoed through the room, a testament to the love that bound them together.
Damian's laughter faded, replaced by a look of concern. "Marie, you don't have to do this," he said, his voice heavy with worry. "You don't have to be a sacrifice."
Marie smiled, her eyes shining with determination. "I'm not going to let them win, Dad. I'm going to fight for you. And I'm going to make sure they'll pay for your pain."
Damian kissed her cheek, his touch a silent promise of love and support. "Thank you and Be careful, Marie," he whispered, his voice thick with emotion.
"I will," she promised. "I'll be back soon." "I love you dad"
Now, she was about to embark on a mission that was both a blessing and a burden: infiltrating the prestigious Wayne Academy of the program green garden as a Alpha student.
Damian knew she was going into a dangerous world, a world filled with secrets and betrayal.
But he also knew she was strong, capable, and determined. He had created her, and he trusted her.
