Chapter 26

Damian's POV

She is up to something and it couldn't possibly be something good. I just knew it. She was staring at Ethan, smiling to herself. I have to keep a close eye on her. 

We're at a party organized by her company and we had to attend it since aunt and uncle insisted on us coming or else I wouldn't have attended. 

They are so nice, they treat me like their own son. And since they've met Ethan, they are so fond of him. Who wouldn't be? Honestly he's a fluff ball. He's just too cute. 

"What are you thinking about?" I heard Ethan ask from beside me. I looked down to see him looking at me curiously, I decided to tease him a bit. "You, Kitten" I said huskily leaning down a bit as if suggesting something. 

It isn't a lie though. I could see his cheeks turn pink. Gosh he's so cute. I just love the way he blushes because of me.  "D-Damian!" He exclaimed and I shrugged feigning innocence "What?" He just shook his head.

".....Let's enjoy the party!" Uncle raised a toast and everyone cheered. From the corner of my eyes I could see Angela coming towards us. She stood in front of us, "Oh Ethan, why aren't you taking something? Here." she said offering him a glass of wine. 

I looked at the glass of wine suspiciously. Ethan looked at me unsure of what to do, even he didn't understand why she was suddenly offering him wine when she was glaring at him the other day.  "That won't be necessary Angela" I said declining her offer. 

"What? you think I mixed something?" she smirked. "Watch" she said lifting the glass to her lips and gulping down the contents. "See? Nothing" she finished. "Now do you believe me?" she asked and called a waiter with the drinks. "Here Ma'am" the waiter said handing out the drink. 

"Not me give it to him" she said. Ethan took the glass thanking him. "Well I'll be off" she smiled and walked away. Why is she suddenly smiling so much? I thought. Ethan took a sip and scrunched up his face. "Kitten, you don't have to drink it" I said taking the glass from him. He nodded. 

Ethan's POV

He took the glass from me, it tasted weird. Sure I don't drink but I don't drink but I don't think it should taste like this. Maybe I am looking too much into this and it really does taste like this. "Damian" we looked at uncle Dan "Come here son" he nodded and looked at me "I'll be back in a few" he said and I nodded.

I suddenly started feeling uncomfortable, I didn't know why. It was kind of suffocating. Damian came back after a few minutes. He looked at me "What happened Kitten, is there a problem?" he asked worried. I shook my head "No it's just that I am not feeling well" 

"Do you want to go home?" he asked and I shook my head "I'll be-" I was cut off by uncle Dan "Damian I need you to meet" he said but looked at me "Ethan dear are you okay? You look kind of pale" he asked. 

I nodded "Just not feeling well" "Oh dear, maybe due to so many people you should take some rest. You can go to that room and rest for awhile" he said pointing towards the direction. I nodded.

"I'll come with you" said Damian. "No it's okay I'll be fine, really besides uncle wants you to meet some colleagues of his so you have to be here. I'll come back in a few minutes don't worry" I said trying to reassure him.

He reluctantly agreed and I walked towards the room. I entered the room and went near the window. I stood there trying to relax myself maybe now the uncomfortable feeling will go away. My head started to spin. I leaned against the window supporting myself. 

"Hey cutie" I heard someone say, I turned around and there stood a guy at the door. "Finally I found you" he said. I looked at him in confusion "what do you-" he cut me off "Shh cutie, it'll be okay" he said coming towards me. 

I moved away from the window and walked towards the door. I didn't want to be here with this person any longer. I have a bad feeling about him. Before I could reach the door he grabbed my hand "Where do you think you're going" he smirked and pushed me towards the wall.

I was trapped between the wall and him. I tried pushing him away but to no avail, he was strong and the fact that my head was spinning didn't help. "Please let me go" I said, he just laughed. "Too bad, I can't do that" he said touching my face. I pushed his hands away. 

"Help, Damian" I said aloud. "That boyfriend of yours wouldn't come to save you" he taunted pulling my hair roughly, making me cry out in pain.
