I rested my head on the car's window as I hummed to the song in my head. There was no tension between us as Damon drove to the hospital though he had looked at me a couple of times like he was meaning to speak to me. When he stared at me more during the red light, I didn't help myself from glaring at him as my forehead furrowed, that alone was enough to put him off and scare him away.
He went back to focusing more on the road than on my face as he took a U-turn and diverted to an enclosed road way off the path that led to the hospital.
I wanted to complain but also didn't want to be first person to speak to him, I just couldn't decide what to say to him or how to start. I finally dropped every animosity I had within me so I don't come off as rude as I asked, "Where are we headed, Damon? The hospital is the other way...." I made a hand signal to the back as I beckoned on him to offer an explanation.
He finally responded after so much persuasion from me but not the response I was looking for, "I see you and my cousin are already bonding" he said sending a glance my way.
"Who? Link?"
Damon frowned. "Isn't it soon to give him a nickname..." He said with gritted teeth. "Why do I even care, you jump on every guy you meet..."
"Damon!" I yelled and the car came to an abrupt stop making a screeching sound to the ground. "So what if I jump on every guy I meet? What does that have to do with you... Eh? I think it's high time you minded your own business and stop sticking your nose in mine"
He turned off the car as he faced me properly, "To hell with that! You stay under my roof and anything that happens underneath it is my business.... It's just been a day and you've already seen him half naked"
"What are you trying to insinuate? I had no clue he was taking off his cloth and I did wanted to leave before that...." I said almost at the verge of tears as I tried to explain, though I owed him none.
"You wanted to leave?" He scoffed, "I'd believe that if I didn't visualize you standing there like a stick waiting on him to tell you to leave" he blurted, I couldn't hold myself back as I stroked him on his face.
"You deserve more than that! Bloody bastard" I spat out and with a rush of passion he pulled me into a mouth watering kiss. With our emotions all up in the air, we used the kiss to fight an invisible war only visible to us. There was resistance as I tried to push him away from me but he had the upper hand as he forced me to accept the kiss.
So when did it all change? I could no fight him and his lips on my mine was extremely tempting to be kissed back. My mind hated him but my heart denied such hatred for him. As I accepted him a drop of tear fell from my left eye as I grabbed a chunk of his hair, letting a moan escaped from my mouth, he took that and kissed me even harder. "I know that you still love me" he pulled out and said into my ear.
It was then that it hit me. Why on Earth was I kissing the son of the woman that had my mother killed for her own selfish interest.
When he lifted his lips to kiss me again, I turned away. "I'll take a cab" I grabbed my bag and before he could even stop me I had gotten off from the car and hailed for a taxi that was just driving past.
"Priscilla wait!" He called out, I quickly jumped into the taxi and begged the driver to drive quickly.
My lips was still swollen as I touched it, reliving the kiss from moments ago. It was the first time I had had a kiss that the effect still stuck on me, leaving me to reminisce those bitter sweet memories I had with Damon.
What was I even thinking kissing him back? I should've kept a strong hold till the end, now I won't have to bother about having to see him when I return, not like it was a must that I did return, I can list out names that will celebrate if I didn't return.
Turns out, Damon wasn't taking me off course as the taxi driver got to the hospital sooner than I had expected.
I was twenty minutes late to my doctor's appointment. Doctor Ray will definitely not be furious about it though. He was he even welcoming as he helped me to my seat.
"Miss Castillo before we go on, Mrs Beatriz has requested that a proper test be taken so as to be sure about it. My apologies if this wasn't what you were expecting" Doctor Ray apologized.
To be honest I was actually expecting this, Beatriz is actually predictable. "I've got no problem with that" I said feeling confident. Why should I fret? I do know when a baby was growing in me.
The test took a while as Doctor Ray came in afterwards with a smile on his face as he said, "Congratulations Miss Castillo you are three weeks pregnant" For the second time and much freely this time I was extremely happy for myself again.
For a second there I was close to loosing my confidence.
"The smile you have on your face is the same one Damon's secretary....'" he stopped to think of her name.
"Rachel" I helped him out.
"Ah... Yes, she had that same smile on her face when she found out she was pregnant, months before she was murdered at her apartment" Doctor Ray said bringing back Rachel as a topic I won't accept for discussion.
It was better I turned a blind eye and walk away.
As I was done with the hospital, I took a cab to the police station. Things was about to get bumpy for the entire Prince's family and I will be the only one left standing after this is over.
It was time to pay evil a visit.....
