Chapter 62
JANE:
I could hear my heart rising so fast when I heard Jackson and I couldn’t control my joy or my excitement. Did he find the flower? I thought I had heard wrong and this had to be a f*cking dream,
“Jackson, are you serious? Tell me you aren’t joking?” I yelled.
“No. I’ll be back tomorrow and we can carry out everything.”
Silently, I covered my m*uth with my palms and said some words of prayers. I couldn’t contain my excitement knowing that everything wasn’t a f*cking dream and Katherine’s end was slowly coming near. This felt so good to be true,
“Hurry back Jackson. Immediately everything is done, then your sister’s treatments would be fully taken care of and she’ll be sent out of the country.” I reminded him, knowing fully well that was the only thing that could get him to hurry here as soon as possible.
“I’ll be back tonight.” He responded and the call ended.
I shut my eyes and placed my phone right on my chest, then I shut my eyes,
“F*ck! Best news I ever heard in a while. Teh, it’s just a little more, just a little bit more Katherine and you’ll be joining your miserable mother down there in hell.”
I laid on the bed, humming to myself and imagining Katherine’s dead body, the regret on alpha Leo’s face because he dared to mess with me and then, the future of the blue crest pack. I could hear our people chanting about Zane’s victory in killing the murderer of their late Alpha king. Everything felt so real, and for that reason, I had to make it real.
Just as I took a deep breath in and out with my eyes still shut, I heard my phone ringing,
In a hurry, I picked it up beside me and answered the call,
“What’s wrong?”
“The… there’s a… a
***
…a big situation…”
“Talk you fool, what’s wrong?”
“There’s a big situation right now! The Alpha found one of my men, and now he has him. You know what this means right? If things go south, then we were never in this garne in the first place, remember the deal…. Goodbye.”
“You fool…” I half yelled, but the call was hung up on me.
KATHERINE:
My body froze right where I was standing, and then I couldn’t believe I was seeing him again. I had prayed silently not to, but it seems it didn’t work.
Damn, maybe I just didn’t put in a lot of effort in the prayer,
“What are you doing here? This is a workplace so if you’re here for your little games of excitement, not right here, please. You should take it elsewhere.” I uttered, suddenly discarding whatever I was feeling inside of me. I didn’t want to know what it was because, at the moment, it made me excited at his presence,
He smiled at me, and damn, it was so charming to a level that I wanted to reciprocate the smile but I fought hard not to. Feeling so uncomfortable, I decided to clear my throat out loud so I could snap myself of the stupid thought running through my mind. I had to be thankful this wasn’t Leo else I would have been afraid of my thoughts being heard.
“Relax sweetheart.” He uttered
“I’m not your sweetheart.” I corrected harshly,
Then, he raised his two hands halfway up in the air, and said again, “Oh, my bad. Relax love…”
I wanted to utter another word, but then it dawned on me that he could probably be joking around with this and he wanted my attention by doing this.

“Fine, call me whatever you like. What do you want here?” I questioned him impatiently,
“I had some business to attend to so I’m here. Isn’t that obvious?” I was suddenly confused, but he rolled his eyes not at me, and with a deep breath, changed his standing position
“My dressing Katherine. I’m all dressed in a suit, so what does that tell you?”
“I don’t know….” I paused so I could remember his name,
“I don’t know Mr Damon, but you have to leave. If you’re here to see me then…”
“Who says it’s
‘s you I wanna see?” He cut me off
I suddenly paused, trying to process his words in my brain. Why did that statement just get to me?
“But then it’s so glad to see you as well, Katherine. Shall we head upstairs together, it’s almost time for the meeting.”
Damn, I suddenly forgot about my meeting, “f*ck, get the hell out of my way.‘ I said to him and began to rush towards the elevator. As soon as I got in, the door was about to shut, but he held it with his hands and it opened again,
Who the hell was this strange man? I had to understand what was happening to me because of him.
He got in and the elevator door shut. It took about 5 minutes before the door opened, and we both stepped out of the elevator.
“You shouldn’t be here, it’s meant for…”
“I know what it’s meant for Katherine. Come on, let’s go in now.” His hands were on my shoulders this time around as I stared at him,
He turned me around and began to walk behind me till we got to the entrance. I couldn’t open it out of shock and so he didn’t. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Maybe I could just lie that he was my assistant. As we walked in, everybody was seated and waiting for me. I began walking towards my seat, hoping that he was following behind me, but when I sat down, he was seated on one of the empty seats close to me.
I arched my brows in shock, still staring at him. This time, it was obvious that I was angry,
“What are you doing?”
“I’m part of you.”
I averted my gaze to all the other members, and they slowly began to nod their heads one after the other,
“He traveled years ago, but it’s such a great surprise to see you again Mr…”
“Damon.” He cut the man off before he could complete his statement and there was a little pause from him. I could see him staring at the man’s eyes so intently and that got me a bit scared,
“Mr Damon,” I called him,
“Oh well, you have your seat now. I’ll do the introduction myself.” Damon said and rose to his feet.
“Hi everyone, I’m Damon Knight, a part of this company’s most important individuals and it’s so good to be back. I left for someplace far, deep, cold, and lonely years ago, but I’m back now. Thank you.” He took his seat, and I cleared my throat again, wondering what he meant by all of what he just said.
If he was in such a place, why couldn’t he just leave and return to the country?
“Alright, let’s begin,” I said and decided to avoid his gaze as best as possible. Whatever I was feeling now, it was probably because I felt this was another complete version of Leo. This time, a version that I was so curious about.
