Chapter 17

Once they arrived at the airport they quickly went through a private area and boarded the plane.

After everyone got on and sat in their seats, the plane took off and they began to fly to New York.

It was the first time that Monica got on a plane and she was excited looking out the window, there was no need to talk about Maria, she flew fighter jets.

After flying for a while, both Maria and Monica fell asleep.

Today Maria has had many emotional impacts, first, she was told that her best friend had died, and then she was told that powers exist and that her friend was kidnapped by aliens.

They spent 6 hours flying until they arrived at the New York airport and a car was waiting for them.

It was already 01:00 am so Monica was still sleeping while Damian carried her in his arms but when they got into the car she woke up and started looking at everything with curiosity again.

Once they got home they were greeted by Sophia who was looking at them in surprise.

Sophia was surprised by the two new members.

''I know everyone has questions, but it's late so let's all go to sleep and we'll talk tomorrow'' Damian said, smiling slightly when he saw the looks of Sophia and Maria.

After entering and seating everyone in a room they went to sleep.

The next morning Maria woke up sleepy from staying up late the day before, after looking around she was puzzled by the unfamiliar room until she remembered that was in Damian's house.

Really was crazy not only the fact that Damian has powers, but her friend was also apparently kidnapped by aliens and her daughter has a new 'father'.

She only hoped that this would be the best for her daughter and that she would grow up happy.

….

Damian woke up with naked Ana hugging him, last night after arriving they did it again, but it is to be expected since they are vampires and it is something new for both of them.

He couldn't help but be a little melancholy about Carol's absence, he hopes that she won't get too angry when she comes back, she will surely shoot some photon beams at him but it doesn't matter, luckily he can't die.

In the next few years, he has a pretty ambitious plan and that is to take over a nation called Madripoor.

Madripoor is a city-state and nation in maritime Southeast Asia at the entrance to the Strait of Malacca, it was a safe haven for pirates in the past, and over time a large criminal underworld was formed.

Damian plans to take over this nation to serve as a base and as a political support in the world as he recognizes that not everything can be solved by force, well, actually he could but he wants his wives and daughters to be free from doing whatever they want without countries coming after them.

He plans to take over the underworld, but it's not that he's an altruistic hero and plans to eliminate slavery and drug smuggling, he plans to control that business by decreasing the amount circulating and increasing the price, Damian knows that eliminating it is impossible, it will simply grow somewhere else, his goal is to be the one who controls the underworld in the entire planet and on the positive side he will be able to decrease the tragedies.

Because there are fewer and more expensive drugs, there will be fewer people who fall for them since not everyone can afford them.

Human trafficking can buy them themselves and put them to live in the country where they will have better opportunities, anyway as the king of Madripoor the only thing he will not lack is money.

Being a no-extradition place, the big bosses can only honestly pay not to be extradited.

Madripoor is a gold mine for someone with power who can handle it well.

He'll create some normal vampires and have them oversee everything while he relaxes.

After thinking about his future plans, he picked Ana up and took her to take a shower before going down to breakfast.

Damian also had to be careful that Maria didn't find out about his relationship with Ana as that would be another mess to explain.

After a sumptuous breakfast with the 4 ladies, they went to the living room to chat.

'' Damian can you introduce me to this lady and this young lady?'' Sophia said as she smiled at Monica.

''This is María, my girlfriend Carol's best friend'' Damian said, introducing María.

''And this is my daughter Monica'' Damian said.

His words were shocking to everyone, especially to Sophia and Monica.

''Your daughter? but if you are 20 and this girl is like 5 years old "Sophia said bewildered as she tried to make calculations or remember when Damian went to Los Angeles at that time.

'' Are you my dad?'' Monica asked surprised and expectant at the same time.

''That's right, I'm your dad now, don't you want to?'' Damian asked Monica with a smile.

'' Yes, ​​I want!'' Monica said excitedly before hugging him.

"Then remember to call me daddy next time," Damian said as he patted her head.

"Yes, daddy," Monica said with a big smile.

Sophia after seeing her development understood that she was not the biological daughter, she internally breathed a sigh of relief, after all, at that time Damian did not go anywhere and it was impossible that she was his daughter.

"So Maria you can live here if you want or as I promised you we can find a house outside of New York for you to live in, you can also get a job as a police officer, I can help you get a high position," Damian said cheekily, if not you were using your privileges so what do you have them for?

After saying that, Monica immediately looked at her mother with puppy eyes asking her to stay, she just got a dad at last and doesn't want to leave him.

''I will stay here temporarily, and it would also be good to work as a police officer, since I was already in the air force they would accept me easily, but it would be useful if you help me'' Maria said.

"Okay, so it's settled," Damian said.

"Sorry for the late introduction, this is Sophia my mother," Damian said as he looked affectionately at Sophia, previously he had his inhibitions about calling her his mother but after 'losing' Carol so suddenly, he decided to put aside some of these inhibitions.

'' And this is Ana, she is my assistant and essentially goes with me everywhere '' Damian said, Maria had just arrived and he did not want to drop a bombshell on her so quickly.

'' Your mother?, didn't you tell us that…? Maria asked doubtfully, not wanting to ask a question that she shouldn't have.

'' My biological mother died when I was very young, she was the one who really raised me and as the saying goes, fathers are the ones who raise '' Damian said with a smile at the end.

"I understand, nice to meet you, Mrs. Sophia, sorry for the inconvenience of living here," Maria said.

'' Don't worry, if Damian Monica is her daughter then I guess she is my granddaughter '' Sophia said happily, she really liked taking care of children since she never had her own.

''Thank you'' Maria said, a little moved.

''A pleasure, Ana, although we had met before, we had not had the opportunity to introduce ourselves correctly,'' María said to Ana.

"A pleasure," said Ana nodding.

''…''

'' Don't worry that's how Ana is, if she doesn't like you she will tell you up front so don't take it the wrong way '' Damian said, smiling ironically.

"Okay," Maria said, not really knowing what to say.

"Okay then, Ana, please contact the New York Police Chief and donate a generous amount to congratulate them on hiring a former Air Force pilot into their ranks and send Maria's documents, I am sure he will understand.," Damian said with a smile.

''…''

María did not know what to say before the world of the rich that money solves everything.

''Good'' Ana said as if it was the most normal thing.

''Also requests a place for Monica to enter the primary school '' Damian said.

"Well that would be it, I guess you have things to unpack and get comfortable, tomorrow we can go buy Monica's school supplies," Damian said.

''Yes, I haven't unpacked anything yet, we still have things to do'' Maria said, moving is really tedious.

After Maria left with Monica, only Sophia, Ana and Damian remained.

'' Damian why do you want to adopt her?'' Sophia asked curiously, if he had a relationship with Maria she would understand but that doesn't seem to be the case.

'' My girlfriend is Monica's godmother which makes me her godfather '' Damian said without wanting to go into details.

"Fine, as you wish, I'll go see if they need anything," Sophia said smiling.

Sophia left, leaving only Damian and Ana.

'' Ana, I need you to help me with something '' Damian said as he sat down next to Ana.

''Tell me'' Ana said inside excitedly that Damian has another task for her.

''I want you to gather all the information about Madripoor,'' Damian said.

'' Yes sir, I will have all the information as soon as possible, I hope you can reward me later '' Ana said playfully while looking at him seriously as she put a hand on his leg before leaving the room to get the information.

Damian couldn't help but smile slightly at her words.

Left alone, Damian couldn't help but think about what he had planned these 6 years that Carol was gone.

He wanted to totally take over Madripoor and make some vampires that would oversee everything so that when he got the Kree technology he would create an impenetrable place with great pressure on world politics.

Damian doesn't really need that but he does it for his family, he can't always have them in his sight to protect them, they will also want to be free and explore the world, although being his family he will put a target on their backs he will also give them protection, nobody will dare to attack them directly and they will only do so in secret.

He suddenly decided to visit his friend Jen, so he took his phone and called her.

"Hello?" Jen said.

"Hello Jen, how are you?" Damian said cheerfully.

''Fine and you?'' Jen replied.

''Well, I'm not complaining, do you have free time? How about we get together for a drink'' Damian said.

"Okay, I really don't have much to do other than train apprentices occasionally," Jen said.

"Great, see you at the sanctuary in New York," Damian said.

"Fine," Jen said.

Damian got up and told Sophia that he was going to visit a friend before flying to the sanctuary.

Arriving at the sanctuary it automatically opened for him so he stepped through and went to where he sensed Jen.

''How was your day?'' Damian said when he saw her.

''I've supervised some trainees and drank some delicious tea, plus since I can't see the future anymore every event is a surprise, how about you?'' Jen said happily.

'' Well today wasn't bad, I adopted a daughter and I have decided what I am going to do for a few years '' Damian said as he drank Jen's tea.

''A daughter? How peculiar, and tell me, what have you decided to do?'' She asks with a bit of seriousness, anything Damian did would create huge waves in the future that she had seen since Damian appeared she knew that the future no longer existed but it still had a similar path right now.

"I will take over a small nation and take over the global underworld," Damian said cheerfully.

''…''

Jen couldn't help but think what a villain would do, well it's not like she can stop him plus he's not destroying the world, you could say it's not her jurisdiction so she looked the other way.

''It will be great, when everything is ready I will invite you to play, I am sure you will like it'' Damian continued without taking Jen's thoughts into account.

"Well I'll be waiting for your invitation," Jen said honestly, what Damian did there would be a reflection of his personality so she was curious how it was going to be.

Damian and Jen talked for several hours, Jen has many interesting things to tell, having the ability to see the past and the future they joked about many things, finally, it started to get late so he said goodbye to go home for lunch, now he has a little daughter waiting for him at home so he has to keep an eye on her.

When he arrived at his house he found Monica walking in the garden so he approached her, hearing his footsteps she turned and looked at him.

''Daddy!'' Monica said as she ran towards him.

''Hello darling, how are you?'' Damian said as he scooped her up into his arms.

'' Great! This place is huge and there are many things to do '' She said before falling silent as if she was hesitating to ask for something.

''Is there something you want?'' He asked with a wry smile, he felt a headache coming on for him.

'' Daddy I want to have a pet but mommy said no because we were going to bother, are we a nuisance?'' Monica said as she looked at him with sad eyes.

'Cunning brat already knows how to manipulate with her eyes,' Damian thought, but he really was weak against these attacks.

''Of course, not darling, tell me what kind of pet you want'' Damian said with no other choice.

''I want a dinosaur''
