Chapter 20

"How is this possible?" Dominic said, talking to Melissa who was wearing a surprise look seeing Amelia alive and interacting normally.

"I thought you said you couldn't help her, how come she is alive?" He questioned her further.

"I..I don't understand, there was no way she could have survived that poison... It must have been that man. Yes, it must have been him, he must have done something to her. It must have been him who saved her cause he was the last person in the tent with her." She said talking more to herself than to Dominic.

"What man do you speak of?" Dominic asked and Melissa took her face to him.

"The fine young man with eyes of the ocean and curly hair like waves of the sea and that smells like the morning dew," She replied and before Dominic could ask any further questions.

"Damon, she is speaking of Damon. He saved me," Amelia said coming to the scene and one would hear and feel the happiness in her voice...

Out in the streets of Lake Hill's Town

"This is a stupid idea, of course he won't be here..." A frustrated Jane was saying, talking to herself even though her best friend, Kate was with her.

"What was I thinking, that he will just happen to be walking by this path every single night?.." she continued speaking to herself as she walked to and fro repeatedly.

They have been at that spot for close to an hour and yet there was no sign of the handsome blue-eyed man and that's the cause of Jane's frustration.

"Are you sure this was the place you met him?" Kate asked looking around and Jane stopped pacing around and turned to look at her friend.

"How can I forget this place?" She said and immediately bad memories of that night came flashing in her head.

She remembered how the evil blonde boy had pushed her on the ground and how he and his ugly friends had touched her inappropriately and that made her have goosebumps; the bad kind, all over her skin.

"Let's leave here." Jane said in disappointment and she started walking away Kate also joined her.

But just then.

"You seem to like the night." A masculine voice spoke and from the night emerges a figure...

I was feeling really heartbroken and disappointed that I didn't get to see my blue-eyed hero. I didn't know why I got my hopes so high even. It was a silly plan to begin with but as Kate and I were returning home. I heard that voice, the sweetest voice ever.

"You seem to like the night."

When I turned around I saw the most handsome man ever, standing. It was him. My blue eyes man.

"You..you are here." I couldn't hide the excitement on my face even though I tried and when I turned to look at my friend Kate. I saw that her mouth was wide open.

I bet she is also surprised at how beautifully handsome he is. He is really a thing of beauty.

"Yes I am, and you are here. Never thought I would see you pass this route again. Guess you are braver than I thought," he said as he slowly but magnificently walked towards me.

I couldn't stop myself from staring at his face. Damn! This man is beautiful. Why is he so beautiful? And those eyes? My God! Are those actually eyes or precious stones??? As he came close enough his sweet fragrance filled my nose down to my tummy leaving me with this hunger urge to sniff him all over but I controlled myself.

"Y..Yes I am here." I stuttered a bit as I gave a reply to him.

He stared at me for a while with his ocean blue eyes scanning my body from head to toes but not in an inappropriate way.

"I see you took my advice then." He said and somehow I understood what he meant by that.

He was making mention of my dress. I am dressed in a more appropriate manner this time around than the last time and I felt a bit embarrassed that he was still remembering that.

"Yeah," I gave out an awkward smile since I was feeling embarrassed because of what he said.

"Alright then," he said and walked past me and continued walking away while I stood stagnant like a piece of wood.

"What are you doing? Go talk to him and ask for his name." Kate said to me and that's when my head rebooted.

"Hey, wait!" I ran up to meet him but he kept on walking.

"What do you want?" He said when I got close to him without turning back.

"Well...I want to say thank you for what you did for me the other day." I started.

"I think you have thanked me enough," was his short response, killing off the conversation and he was still in motion.

I stopped walking as I didn't feel brave enough to start up another conversation but then I maned up and walked to meet him- increasing my pace. I didn't come to this place all for nothing, if nothing. I must leave with his name.

"So...where are you heading?" I asked and he turned only his head around to my direction with an awkward expression on his face like.

'Why do you care to know?'

"I know that's not my business but I don't know I would like to invite you to my place for a cup of coffee sometime if you don't mind." I said then swallowed as he stopped walking.

He turned to face me.

"What did you say?" He asked and I don't know why but I became really scared. Maybe he doesn't like coffee and I have foolishly invited him to have a coffee with me.

"I said.. whether you would love to have coffee with me sometime but if you don't like coffee then I can make hot chocolate." I said and I was praying silently that he doesn't scold me.

"Coffee it is." He said.then turned around and started walking away.

Wait, did he just agree to have coffee with.me??? Like he seriously agreed?! I felt relieved and a smile formed on my face but then I remembered I still don't know his name or how to contact him.

"Hey, wait!!!" I yelled chasing after him and he stopped but the look on his face snowed he wasn't happy.

"I..I am sorry. It's just I don't know your name nor how to reach you." I explained.

"I know where you live. Expect me during the weekend." He said then turned around and started walking away.

I guess he doesn't like giving out his name but then he paused.

"It's Damon. My name is Damon." He said before walking away.

"Damon," I recited softly and a smile touched my face.

I felt really happy just by knowing his name. It sounds so beautiful in my ears and also tough ust like him.

"Damon. I like it."...

"How did it go?" My best friend Kate said as she came to meet me.

I turned to face her and pretended like I was sad.

"What? He didn't tell you his name? What's wrong with that guy??? No doubt he is extremely hot and handsome but he is a total jerk. Why will a man refuse to tell a beautiful lady like you his name?? Does he think he is God or what?.."

My friend was going on and on. She was genuinely angry and concerned for me and seeing her acting this way was really sweet but I had to tell her the truth before she kills someone.

"I am having a date with him!" I screamed out excitedly.

"W... What?" Kate was looking confused.

"How? When?.. I thought he was rude to you?"

"No, he wasn't. His name is Damon and I will be having him over for coffee this weekend." I said, smiling happily.

"Wow! I have to come." She said and I stared at her for a while.

"Nope." I laughed and ran away.

"Hey you naughty girl." Kate said running after me and we both had a good laugh at the end.

"Why are you still here?"

Damon asked with a calm voice but one could sense he was annoyed as he opened the door of his hotel apartment to find Roshan still seated comfortably on his sofa.

Roshan let out a cheeky smile.

"It turns out I love the feel of your chair," he replied with arms all stretched wide on the chair and crossed legs.

Damon sighed out angrily, he was enraged but he still managed to calm himself and he proceeded to walk in. Passing Roshan when he sat he motioned to the direction of his room but stopped walking when he got close to the closed door of the bedroom.

"They are still here." He said with annoyance clearly showing in his voice as he picked up the scent of the human girls Roshan brought with him.

"What do you think? A human would have sex with a demon and still have the strength to walk home? Not even two humans can handle a demon such as I." Roshan said in a bragging manner and Damon frowned angrily.

"I want them out." Damon said, turning around to face him.

"Hey there brother, it's already late. Where do you want them to go?"

"I don't care. That's none of my business," Damon replied and Roshan sighed.

"Let them just stay here for the night, they can still be useful, you know?" Roshan said with a naughty smile.

Damon sighed and without saying anything walked into his room. When he got to his room he saw the two ladies that Roshan had finished having sex with sleeping naked on his bed. They didn't even cover up their nakedness with the duvet or bed sheets. They were just there stark naked.
