Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom novel Chapter 214

214 Damien’s Love 

At the Organization… 

Few days had passed and yet, Maverick was still not allowed to leave. He stopped attending their meetings after that first time. Holed up in his room with a laptop in front of him, the man tried to carry out his mission in the most complicated and bizarre way. 

Today was his seventh day of staying indoors and decided to go out of his room. Who would have thought that he would barge into the man he had been looking for? 

Standing in front of Maverick was none other than Damien. Behind him was Kimberly who had her head down. 

“Woooo, look who we found” Damien smiled, but it didn’t reach his eyes. 

Maverick didn’t respond but rather, glanced passively at Kimberly. She was wearing an 

expensive–looking black gown with beautiful accessories, while Damien was also wearing a black suit with a white undershirt. 

“I thought you won’t ever come out of that room you’re hiding. I was thinking of coming to collect what you owe me after I’m back from the party” 

Still, Maverick ignored him and tried to walk away but Damien blocked his path. “Maverick, don’t act all cocky with me here, this is not our turf, but I can have you and your men wasted here. He smiled through gritted teeth. 

Maverick raised the corner of his lips but still didn’t open his mouth before he pushed Damien out of his way and walked past. 

“Alpha Chaos, coming here was your mistake.” He murmured under his breath. Unbeknownst to him, Kimberly silently gasped when she heard that name. 

Alpha Chaos! He was the person his mother told her and her sisters to go seek protection from before they were abducted the moment they stepped into the Country. Her eyes followed him as he walked further away while biting her lips. She wanted to run after him before she felt a cold stare on her naked back. 

“Is he more handsome than I am?” 

Kimberly quickly turned but remained silent. 

Damien took a few steps towards her and wrapped his arm around her waist, then yanked her to his chest. “You are not permitted to fancy another man except me. Whoever you look at twice will be killed. Understand?” 

Kimberly flinched when he yanked her. With heart racing against her chest, she stubbornly stared into his menacing eyes. Those eyes and everything about this man makes her skin crawl but she would never make the mistake of letting him know that. 

She gently pushed against his chest, prompting him to let her go. Then she took two steps back and turned her face away. 

A totally defiant one! 

Damien found himself genuinely smiling at her behavior. These days, he had been smiling more than ever and it was always a genuine smile with her. He doesn’t understand what was going on with him. but one thing he knows is that Kimberly is his and no one is allowed to covet or come close to her. 

Damien didn’t know the meaning or characteristics of love and obsession, reason he had no idea he had fallen in love at first sight. 

“Master, I would like to return if we aren’t going anymore.” She forced the fear she had for this man to the back of her mind and spat out the words rudely like she was angry at him. 

Damien closed the space between them and wrapped his hands around her waist again. “Damien…. call me Damien.” He was as shocked as Kimberly when he heard himself saying that. He frowned deeply. What is wrong with him? Why is he always a different person in front of this rude girl? Logically, he was supposed to grab her neck and squeeze the life out of her when she said that but why was he feeling content Instead? He hates it when she’s silent but happy when she speaks, even though she’s always rude to him. What the f*ck is going on?! 

Although Damien was thinking all of that in his mind, however, his outward appearance was gentle with a small frown on his face. Kimberly tried to pull away, thinking her stubbornness had finally pushed her to dig her own grave, but was surprised when his face suddenly changed to a smiling face 

and leaned in. 

She pushed her head back in reflex. He’s so creepy when he does that and it sends a chill down her spine! 

Damien rested his hand behind her head and gently pushed it forward, making their nose touch. “Don’t ever shy away from me, Kimberly. I don’t like that.” 

Kimberly held his eyes with unconcealed surprise when she heard a totally different tone of voice. from what he had always used.
