Facade

Chapter 58

Damian's pov

I stared at carlisle's back as he carried Mia off. The way he reacted to her presence was always amusing. It's as if he's connected to her on a deeper level. Something much deeper than love. They were like two bodies sharing a soul. Oh God that sounds frightening. I turned to Karen to see her watching them with amusement on her face. I smirked and leaned to whisper in her ear.
"You know, I didn't know you liked when a man carries a woman off to sunset. I can do that too but it'll be to my bedroom. What do you say?"
As expected, her face turned red and she smacked my shoulder
"Idiot" Karen muttered under her breath. I smirked and bit her ear gently, sucking on the lobe.
"But I'm your idiot" I whispered in her ear. I loved teasing her. I loved watching her blush. I loved watching her hid her face with her hair. I love her reaction to my touch. I loved her. And that declaration did not scare me like I expected it to. I watched Karen bit her lips nervously. She always seems nervous anytime she's alone with me. And I'm loving it.
Reluctantly I pulled away from her and walked to the bench press.
"Let's get this training over with"

Felix's pov

I rolled away from Drew's sleeping body and stood up from bed. My body ached in different places and I was sleep deprived but I was deliciously satisfied. Drew and I were up all night and we were definitely not discussing politics. Or maybe we were. If politics involves naked bodies and screaming in ecstasy.
Drew and I have been together for few weeks and I trusted him completely. He understood me and never tried to push me beyond my limits. As for the physical part of our relationship, it was a bit awkward. I told Drew I had never had sex with a man before and he didn't judge me. No he patiently taught me what I needed to know. He took things slowly and respected it when I said no.
Lately though, I can't help but feel he's different. As if he's hiding something from me. What if he's cheating on me? Forget guns and shit, that'll break me faster than the death of my parents did. I wasn't scared to admit it. I was utterly and irrevocably in love with Drew. And I just couldn't picture him cheating on me. Maybe I'm too trusting. After all I'm naive when it comes to relationships.
I took one last look at drew and slipped quietly out the door. I needed to speak with Damian and I didn't want drew knowing about it. He'd insist on coming with me and I didn't want him to know about that dirty part of me.

Drew's pov

I opened my eyes slowly immediately I heard the door close behind Felix. Quietly I got up and quickly threw on a shirt and joggers. I slipped out the door and looked around for Felix. I found him walking few distance from me and quietly followed him. I needed to know where Karen was and I couldn't ask him about it. It'll blow my cover if I start asking any suspicious questions. I hated what I was doing but I had to protect Felix. I'd die if anything happened to him. In order to keep that bitch from Felix, I needed to give her someone. And that person is Karen.
I stuck to the corners and made sure to keep my distance. Felix was smart and I didn't want him to spot me. I followed him as he turned into a rich neighborhood. Oh shit! I recognize this area. Please don't go where I think you are going, I begged silently. I slipped in a corner and watched as Felix looked stopped in front of a mansion. He pressed the bell and waited while looking around frantically. I pressed myself deeper into the shadows to stay hidden. The gate opened and Felix slipped inside. I waited for few seconds before coming out of hiding. I walked till I was few meters away from the mansion. From this distance, I saw a blond girl come out of the mansion and embrace Felix. If I didn't recognize her as Karen from her picture, I'd be jealous. Oh shit! I was right. This is an unwanted complication. Karen was hiding in Damian Carlos's residence. The home of the Italian mafia leader. I got to let the bitch know. I brought out my phone and took a picture of the couple from a distance. I forwarded the picture to the bitch and made a call.
"Hey, we have a problem..... "

Helen's pov

I cleared the contents on my table with one hand as I flung them away in anger. Damn it! How the hell is this possible? How did Felix manage to contact someone as powerful as Damian Carlos? I'm definitely sure Felix is responsible for Karen being in Damian's house. What connections did those two have? Shit! All my plans goes out the window. Damian Carlos is not someone to mess with. Breaching the United States white house is easier than breaching Damian Carlos's house. Heck, it's fucking impossible. That place is a forte. Impenetrable. Damn! I wasn't prepared for this. My partner will be disappointed! Curse you Davis! Even from the grave, he still manages to destroy my plans.
Reluctantly I picked up my phone and made the call I was dreading. I told her of the latest developments and waited anxiously for her bursts of anger. But it didn't come.
"There's no need to worry. It just means we are back to our original plan" She commented over the phone. I frowned and tried to place what she was talking about. When I came up empty, I asked hesitately
"Which plan?"
I heard her huff from the other side and could picture her rolling her eyes.
"The Carlisle Ashton plan" She clarified confidently. I, however was feeling far from confident. We abandoned that plan due to lack of information. How the hell does she want me to accomplish it now?
"You know why we abandoned that plan.... " I tried reasoning but was cut off by her angry outbursts.
"I don't care. You'll go through with the Carlisle Ashton plan. Am I clear?!" She ordered with a screech. I pulled the phone away from my ear.
"As you wish" I grounded out. I didn't even have time to release the breath i was holding before I heard the dial tone. Bitch! She hung up on me. No time for that now.
I looked up to face the man sitting in front of me.
"Boss has ordered it. We are going with the Carlisle Ashton plan"
