Chapter 84
-CLARA-
The smile on my face was so bright that my cheek was starting to hurt but nevertheless, I couldn’t stop smiling as I watched the little boy. Even though Damon acted like he didn’t want the child here, he asked Luca to bring him toys and other necessities he might need.
I couldn’t help but smile at how thoughtful he was.
I immediately bathed the little boy myself and wore the clothes Damon had gotten for him and I wasn’t surprised when he fell asleep in my

I fell asleep soon after with the little
my arms when I heard a knock on the door.
“It’s Luca” He uttered from behind the door and I sighed before gently climbing out of the bed. I made sure to place pillows at the edge of the boy so he won’t roll and fall, then cover him with a blanket before walking over to the door.
I walked out of the room then closed the door behind before turning to Luca with sleep still in my eyes.
“I didn’t mean to wake you. Damon wants to talk to you” Luca murmured and I sighed then checked on the little boy again to make sure he was still asleep before following Damon.
Soon, we walked into Damon’s office and I was taken back by how scattered it was. I made a mental note to clean up when Damon wasn’t
using it.
“You wanted to talk to me?” I questioned as I sat down on the seat in front of me.
“Yes, you need to tell us how this woman looks like” He murmured and I frowned.
“What woman?” I questioned and he sighed.
“The mother of that child. We need to know what she looks like so we can track her do
“No, I’m not telling you” I murmured stubbornly and he sighed.

“Clara…”
“If you find her, she might want the boy back and…”
*if she wants the child back then you’re going to give it to her because it’s not yours” He muttered and I winced as the pain that struck my
chest.
“I know he’s not mine but he can be. We just have to adopt him. A mother like her doesn’t deserve a second chance, Damon” I murmured and his face instantly softened.
“Leave us, Luca” He murmured and Luca nodded before walking out of the office.
As soon as Luca was gone, Damon motioned for me to come to him.
“Come here” He murmured and I pouted but nevertheless stood up and walked over to him.

“Well we don’t have a child right now and I’m grieving, Damon. The little boy needs a mother and I need a child. If you won’t adopt him then I’ll adopt him under my name” I murmured then pulled away from Damon and walked out of the office despite him calling for me.
Tignored Damon for the whole day and gave all my attention to the little boy. Aunt Amelia and Delilah came to visit me once and they were both very smitten by him.
Soon after, they left and I thought Damon was going to come sleep in our room tonight but I fell asleep again without him.
The little boy snuggled into me while I was deep in thought and I smiled before wrapping my arms around him.
“At least you’re here” i murmured and soon after, we both fell asleep.
The next morning when I opened my eyes, I saw Damon’s face directly above mine.
“Good morning. Little devil” He murmured and I frowned then my eyes widened when I noticed the little boy wasn’t lying down next to me anymore
Timmediately sat up straight then glanced around, searching for him before turning to Damon with a glare.
“Where is he?” I questioned through clenched teeth and he rolled his eyes.

“Relax, Luca took him out to play with the…” Before he could complete his sentence, I had already jumped out of bed, put on and was aboutto storm out of the room when Damon grabbed my hand.
“Where do you think you’re going?” He questioned and I turned to him with a glare.
“I’m going to find the little boy because I don’t trust you” I murmured and tried yanking my hand out of his grip when he grabbed my hand and pulled me closer.
“I came here to spend some time with you and you want to leave me for that child?” He questioned and I frowned.
“That child gives me more attention than you do” I murmured and he sighed.
“Clara
“I know, I know. You’re trying to trace the people behind the bombing and that’s good but that doesn’t mean you’ll neglect me, Damon. You hardly even sleep in here with me anymore” I murmured and his arms tightened around me.
“I’m sorry” He murmured and I rolled my eyes.
“Sorry won’t change anything because I know you’ll still do it again. You said you wanted us to start over again, Damon…”
“And that’s exactly what we are doing” He interjected and I scoffed.
“You know it’s not, Damon,” I muttered.
“What do you want me to do? Huh?” He uttered then turned me around so he could stared directly into my eyes.
“You have been injured before because I wasn’t able to protect you properly, I’m never going to let that happen again, alright? If I don’t catch the perpetrators, I won’t be able to rest. You should understand” He murmured and I sighed before I did. I just wanted my husband, my mate by my side.

“I’ve missed you” He murmured as he cupped my butt and the minute I gasped, he plunged his tongue into my mouth and kissed me senselessly.
“So this is why you came here?” I murmured against the kiss and he chuckled.

“I came for your smart mouth but stayed for the Mind blowing sex” He murmured then watched his mouth of my nipple through my night gown and was about to push me on the bed when the little boy ran into the room.
I immediately pushed Damon away as soon as I saw him then bent down and opened my arms wide and the little boy ran into my embrace.
“Did you have fun?” I questioned as I pinched his chubby cheeks and he just blew raspberries at me.
