Chapter 27- Past Problems

Daemon paced around his study like a lion in a cage. Deandra watched him a little frightened. Daemon realized that she must be scared that he would attack her.

His wife was currently singing for the kitchen.

The bloody woman was singing while he was going mad. Not to mention her singing sounded like a cross between a dying walrus and a whale's mating call. He had heard neither of those sounds but he was pretty sure that his wife's voice was relatable to it.

He hadn't even tried telling her to shut up because he knew that she wouldn't listen to him and would sing even more horrendously. Besides, even though his assistant was her long lost best friend, he didn't want Deandra witness his wife not listening to him. He demanded respect from everyone.

"Why are we waiting here like an idiot?" Daemon asked angrily to his assistant.

"Idiots, sir," Deandra corrected him automatically. Daemon saw her grimace a little... Aiden had been a bit of a Grammar Nazi.

"I meant idiot. You are the only idiot here, not I," Daemon said stiffly. Deandra didn't even bother commenting; it was just like Daemon to insult others even when everyone was miserable.

The door of the study opened and Rosalyn came. Daemon watched her gently pat Deandra, and then give her a cup of tea. She then turned to him and gave him his cup of coffee.

"Ok, now that we all are here," Daemon said giving a meaningful look to Rosalyn, "you tell us what you thought was very important that even I had to listen."

Rosalyn raised an eyebrow at Daemon's attitude and then turned to Deandra. Deandra just shrugged and mouthed, 'He is always like this with me."

Rosalyn rolled her eyes and then turned to Deandra expectantly.

"Well... about a week back, after I had gone out with that man and I was trying to forget his existence... I got a call from someone..."

Daemon looked interested and nodded.

"I thought it was a prank call because I just kept hearing heavy breathing and then a very harsh voice..."

"What does this have anything to..." Daemon started both stopped when he saw the look that Rosalyn gave him.

"The person said 'Sebastian...no...'" Deandra said sounding a little scared, "I thought it was someone from our past trying to scare me but..."

"Who do you think it is? Aiden..." Daemon asked concerned.

"No, I know his voice very well. This... I don't know... it sounded older, rougher and a little dangerous," Deandra said and chuckled sarcastically, "I know I sound insane."

"Yes, you..."

"No, you don't," Rosalyn said giving a warning look in Daemon's direction. Daemon stayed quiet- no point in making her angry. The end result would only be him sleeping on the couch.
