Five Years Later
The sky was blue and the wind soft, as it carried the smell of the clean grass and flowers through the garden.
Taman walked through the garden holding Lana, a satisfied and relaxed smile on his tace
Lana held a baby in the crook her arms. It was their child. They were together forever. She looked up at him and smiled contentedly, and he had never felt as happy ashe did in that moment.
But suddenly, the garden was no longer a garden, the blue sky tamed dark with gray clouds and lightning raced across the gray stomminess, and Lana was no longer by his side.
He squinted, looking into the distance, trying to make out her figure standing far away from him, phantom and ethereal.
“Lana!” He called out, yelled as he desperately tried to move his feet so he can retum to her side.
But the grasses suddenly grew taller with amazing speed, and around him, blocking his sight and seeming to
to choke him.
The last thing he saw as the grasses closed to round him, was Lana’s cold face, her eyes spitting venom. The child in her arms disappeared under his horrified gaze, disintegrating like ashes from a cold fireplace.
He watched as Lana did the same, her eyes cold and deadly, seconds before they disintegrated as well.
*ape we never see each other again..”
Damien jerked awake, his eyes bloodshot, sweat glistening on his face and bare chest, soaking the sheets of the huge double bed on which he was lying.
He laid quite still out of habit, to ensure he had not woken up into another nightmare.
The darkers in the room felt oppressive, but he could see faint sunlight behind the dark curtains which had been drawn over all the windows in his room, just the way he liked it.
No, this was not another nigh
nightmare, but it might as well be, Damien thought as a bitter taste crept into his mouth as he recalled the dream which had woken him up. #hope we never see each other again…”
She had stayed true to her promise. It’s been live freading years, and he had not seen hide nor hair of her, no matter how much he searched.
It was as though she vanished, as though she did not exist in the first place
She had come into his life as a shining ray of hope, and had taken that hope with her when she left.
Where on Earth was sue?
He closed has eyes in anguish, and in the next moment, they flew open in the darkness, when he felt something touch him.
A land slipped under the blanket, and caressed him with the silk blankets, trying to get him amosed,
The voice came beside him, soft like the silk and seductive to the ears, but Damien rolled his eyes and sprang out of bed, flinging the blanket away from him.
He walked to the window, and flung open the baravy dark drapes, permitting the bright rays of the sunlight to flood the room in all its glory.
He stood by the floor to ceiling window, a majestic figure clad in only his underwear His tall physique cast a breathtaking silhouette in the room, the muscles on lus back rippling softly as the wind played with his golden hair.
Hima sat up on his bed, indignat that he had left her, almost smothering her with his thick blankets.
What was his problem, she thought narrowing her eyes at his hard back
Carefully laying the blankets aside, she climbed town silently from the huge bed, her steps made silent by the muble floors.
Clad in black lacy panties only, Hina was a sight to behold and definitely not one to resiste bare breasts stood prond and firm, the nipple hard as well from the morning cold.
The moning san played over her slim, curvy body as she walked up behind Damien
She wrapped her arms around lilm, pressing het face into his broad back as she inhaled the scent of him….
“Dani, why did you leave the bed?” She spoke in that affected voice that always seemed to get his heart. It made him weak, so she thought, when she sounded all
“You’re inaking me lonely”

She tightened her arms round him, as she rubbed her face against his back, breathing in the wonder of his masculine scent that she had missed so badly.
Ond, it had been so long
Damien pried her fingers away from his waist as he tumed and brushed past her, the muscles in his broad back rippling as he walked across the room to get his shirt.. “Leave. “He said, his voice grim and cold. He walked towards another floor to ceiling window, and pushed the heavy drapes on it as well.
Even though it was a bright morning, it was still a bit cold and he wanted to stay by the window a bit longer, staring out into the rolling landscape that rolled beneath his window, a carpet of greenery from trees that stretched for miles.
And maybe, try to forget about his nightmare and the face that always left him longing
Raa glared at him from across the room. She was trembling with anger when she thought about how he had walked to another window to stay away from her.
Her fingers clenched as her eyes stung with unshed tears.
It’s been five years, goddammit, five years and they’ve been on this same rollercoaster.
Damien hadn’t touched her in five years. Indeed, she does not know what she was still doing in the Romero mansion or what she was to Damien anymore. What was th
was the u
use of putting out that bitch, Lana, if he was only going to be like this? Rina thought bitterly.
She inhaled deeply and decided to try another tactic.
“Damien, why are you doing this to me? If there’s anything I did, just let me.
“You did nothing wrong. R
Rina” Damien did not look at her as he spoke but his voice was indifferent and void of any emotion.
It was not the voice of man speaking to his lover
“Just leave. And do not sneak into my room and try this again.”
“But why? Why not Damien?” She cried out, softly covering her mouth as she sobbed pitifully, her body racking with each sob.
Tears cascaded from her eyes and down her face, as she sank to the floor, cutting a pitiful sight,
“I love you, Dami. I left everything to be with you. You know how frall I am, but I only persevere just to be with you” she gasped as she spoke those words, her hands coming to lay over her heart, slightly as though it was in pain. “I’m in pains, Damien. Help me.
She raised tear soaked eyes to stare at him. His cold gaze flickered sideways over to her for a minute, then he turned and walked out, calling out over his shoulder. “De Roben will be coming to check up on you. D Don’t worry, you’ll be fine.”
Thus saying, he disappeared behind the huge double doors of the coorn, and Rina dropped her act.
Her face contorted into a snad as she smashed her clenched fist onto the floor that she was kneeling on
She was breathing hard, and trembling all over with anger that he had not fallen for her weeping act.
Previously, when she had acted trail, fragile or in need of medical assistance, Dansien would care for her himself, never leaving her side until he was sure she was whole again
But this last five years, something changed
And as Rina slowly stood up from the old marble floor, her lists clenched by her side, she could not help but wonder what caused that change.
