Family is made out of loyalty and not out of blood relations.

- Damien

I saw a beautiful woman standing at the main door. She was wearing a short red cocktail dress. Her dirty blonde were in a bob cut. Her dress was showing a bit too much of her assets but yet she looked sophisticated. She was very tall around 6'1. Her long milky legs were on full display as she confidently strode in our direction.

"Darling I missed you.", she stated a bit too sweetly.

I looked in Damien's direction to see his posture was stiff and he has clenched his jaw. He didn't look pleased to see her.

"What are you doing here Rebecca?", Damien hissed with anger. His aura at that moment was terrifying. I looked in Rebecca's direction to see fear linger in her eyes for a moment but she quickly composed herself as she put back a smile on her face.

"I missed you baby.", Rebecca stated as she now stood in front of him.

"I will ask you for the last time, what the f*ck are you doing here?", Damien growled completely annoyed as if her presence was enough to annoy him.

"Language Damien.", I stated and only at this moment I think he realised that he had Amber in his arm.

I had this feeling that things are going to get ugly so I asked Damien to pass Amber to me and he obediently did that. He placed Amber on the floor as she ran in my direction hugging my legs.

"What have I heard Damien that you have brought a woman and child home!", Rebecca stated ranking her eyes in my direction in disgust.

"That is non of your concern.", Damien snapped at her.

"But I am your fiancee.", she stated. My whole world stopped at that moment. I didn't want to be a reason to ruin of a relationship.

"Fiancee!", Damien let go of a bitter laugh. His jaw and fist were clenched. I knew he was very angry.

"You lost your position as my fiancee the day you slept with Jake.", Damien stated.

"It was just a mistake. I was drunk.", Rebecca argued. The look on her face didn't give anything away. I didn't know if she was being sincere or not. Her face was emotionless except for the flirtatious smile on her cherry red lips which I am sure is a mix of a few lipstick shades.

I looked in the direction of Damien to see he was utterly angry. His muscles were stiff. But god I will lie if I say he didn't look sexy in anger.

No Rain, bad Rain. You aren't supposed to think like that. You are just here for Amber. Also angry men are never good. Think of Mar... Ahh never mind.

I looked down at Amber to see she was hiding behind my legs. Oh my poor baby. I felt like things were about to get dirty so I thought of taking Amber back up.

"Let's go up honey.", I told Amber as I have her my hand to hold.

Damien turned around and looked at me. His eyes were almost black indicating he was very angry. I gulped. I don't want Amber to see his angry side.

"You don't need to go anywhere. If anyone would be going then it is this slut.", Damien stated softly while his eyes flickered down to Amber. I looked at him questionably. I don't thing she is about to leave. I sighed and continued to look in front of me.

Rebecca gave me her deadliest glare and I flinched. I started looking down at my shoes. God why am I this weak?

A could hear a growl and boy was it sexy. Gosh Rain why are you even thinking like that? I looked up to see Damien again looking in my direction. I didn't know what was going in his head but it I knew full well that it isn't good.

"You left me for this slut and a b*tch of daughter.", she shrieked dramatically but her words angered me. No one abuses my daughter.

I took a step forward. Her 6'1 height definitely intimidated my 5'2 height but I pushed that thought aside. You need to be strong Rain.

"How dare you call my daughter that?", I hissed in anger.

"Oh so the slut..."

Before Rebecca could complete her sentence she fell on the ground with a thud. I looked in front to see Damien was blocking my view. Her had just slapped Rebecca. I shivered ran down my spine remembering the incident when he slapped me.

"How dare you f*cking slut called my daughter a b*tch.", Damien yelled.

Now Rebecca's face has turned pale. She has lost her confidence and color. She was perspirating. She looked at Damien in horror as she couldn't believe what you were seeing.

"You lo-oved me!", Rebecca yelled but Damien didn't reply and just let go of a bitter laugh. He bent down at her level, his posture stiff. I couldn't look at his facial expression but his voice was enough for me to tell he was acting as the beast he truly is.

I took Amber's hand and made my way up to the staircase. I couldn't see him any further. I really feared him at that moment. He truly is a beast. My breathing was ragged and I was glad that Amber was following me quietly. Maybe she understood the situation.

I made my way to my room and once I was in there I felt at ease. A question was lingering in my mind. Will his beastly self even hurt Amber and me like that?

I felt sick in my stomach. Wrong or not. He has no right to hit a woman. But it is not the first time. I looked down at Amber to see that she was unaffected by everything that happened. I am glad for that.

I sat on the bed with Amber in my lap. She was twirling my long platinum blonde hair. I don't know when but I zoned out. I looked at the window absent mindedly as my mind was miles away. I was thinking about nana, nanu, mom and dad. God I miss them so much.

A knock on my room's door broke my trail of thoughts. I muttered a soft come in. The door opened up and Damien entered the room. His grey eyes were blazing. They were dark and I knew that he was still angry.

I tightened my grip on Amber. I don't know what he is capable of but I will try my level best to protect her from Damien.

Damien slowly entered the room. His eyes first made contact with mine and then leisurely went down to Amber. As his eyes landed on Amber they softened.

Soon he stood in front of us. His large and rough hands made contact with Amber's cheek as he caressed them.

" Umm sorry.", he stated as he rubbed the back of his neck. He said the word with a lot of distaste as he never liked the taste of that word.

"What are you sorry for?", I asked him. I wanted to hear it from his mouth.

My legs were getting numb by Amber sitting on my lap for long so I put her down. She made a pouty face and I softly chuckled. My pouty baby.

She went forward and hugged Damien's right leg. She didn't even reach till his knee. It was becoming easier for Damien to coax Amber in his arms. He wasted no time as he picked her up.

Amber was quick to wrap her hands around his neck and rest her head on his shoulder. She was getting used to his touch. Damien patted her back softly as he again looked in my direction.

"For everything. It has not even been two days and you have gone through so much drama. I never wanted to put you or Amber in such a situation.", Damien stated sincerely.

I didn't know what to say. It wasn't his fault. I can't blame him for things that he had no control over.

"Maybe trouble finds it way to meet me.", I said trying to lighten up the atmosphere but surely Damien didn't get my point as he raised his eyebrow at me.

"What happened to Rebecca? Did she went back home?", I asked Damien but he just smirked in returns if he was keeping a secret and that so to some evil one.

"You don't need to be bothered about her. She is never coming back.", Damien stated with confidence.

Never. Coming. Back.

What does he mean by that? I eyed him suspiciously but he just ignored the look I gave to him.

"Why you left your fiancee?", I asked Damien.

Damien sighed as he settled himself on my bed which technically belongs to Damien. He placed Amber on his lap. I looked down at Amber as she started toying with the watch in his hand. It was a Rolex. It must be expensive.

Amber tried to open the strap of the watch but I stopped her fearing that she would break it.

"It is okay. I have plenty.", Damien stated. Fine if you don't care if your about your watch then it's fine but I don't want Amber to learn to play with other's thing without permission.

"Come here baby.", I cooed her and she left Damien's lap and settled herself on mine. I tied my hand around Amber's tiny waist. She needs to eat more. I mentally thought.

"Spill.", I stated and Damien shared the whole story.

According to Damien's story they never got engaged due to love. It was a mere business deal which got cancelled when Rebecca slept with Jake. He even asked that I had no need to feel guilty about I came in between their relationship.

But a question kept coming in my mind that was how he knew that I felt guilty? Did my face gave it away this easily?

"I have informed the guards that your friend will be visiting you.", Damien stated.

"Cousin.", I corrected him. Damien simply nodded his head.

"Does she knows I am her umm father?", Damien asked me softly near my ears making sure that Amber can't hear him.

I simply shook my head. I didn't tell her anything because I myself want to make sure that is he a good person. After all the rumours I have heard I wanted to make sure. But till now he has not proved me that he is a good man. He is good with Amber and me but not with people around. I have also heard that he has connections with the mafia but I am not sure.

"Not now. I will tell her in the future." I stated and Damien just nodded his head. He placed a kiss on Amber's cheek before saying goodbye.

I sighed. Am I being very cruel on him. But I need to make sure he is a good father. I have my own insecurities thanks to Mar.. Never mind. I don't want Damien to be like him.

Soon I put Amber to sleep as she started becoming sleepy. I myself planned to take a nap but a knock on the door broke my plan. A maid came informing me that Lila was here. I sighed. Another sigh left my mouth. God save me.

I descended the staircase as I saw her looking around in awe but there was a frown on her forehead.

"Good afternoon Lila.", I stated softly as I descended the last stair. But instead of a warm greetings she looked at me with hatred. But why? I haven't done anything wrong.

Lila started clapping her hand dramatically making all the maids look in her direction.

"Good to see you gold digging slut.", she hissed.
