Chapter 52
-CLARA-
I knew there was sno use a
arguing with Damon over this. I had already blown my cover by calling him in the first place and now I had to deal
with the consequences.
“You stili won’t tell me what the matter is?” Damon questioned as he snuck up behind me in the bathroom and wrapped his arms around
my waist

muttered
“I thought you were going to find out?” I and he groaned.
“That’s too much work, why can’t you just tell me?” He whined like a child and I couldn’t help but giggle as I admired how cute he was through the mirror.
“Because there’s nothing wrong” I murmured and he sighed.
“Okay then move back into the mansion with me” He uttered and I hurriedly shook my head.
“I can’t, I don’t want to” I murmured knowing fully well if Alicia learnt of this, she wouldn’t hesitate to tell Damon and everyone else.

are confusing me, Clara. I don’t know what to think anymore” He murmured and I turned around in his arms then placed a kiss on his
“This is what you wanted in the first place, right? You’ll stay over at the mansion and I’ll stay far away. What’s the problem now?” I questioned and he frowned.
“You know what the problem is Clara, things aren’t the same between us as it was in the beginning” He uttered and I sighed.
understand that, okay? But I cannot move back in with you nor can anyone know we have settled our differences especially your family”
I uttered and he stared at me with confusion etched on his face.
“What? So you want our relationship to be a secret now? That’s bullshit, Clara. We are fucking married and we have a duty to uphold. Despite whatever is going on between us, I still need you to get the Alpha King’s title” He muttered and I stared at him for a while then slowly pulled my hand out of his grip.
“Your father is more than willing to give you the title now, you’re the one that doesn’t want to take it” I muttered and I scoffed.
“Yes because of your” He screamed
“Why? I didn’t ask you to do that!” I screamed back.
“You really want to know why?! Because I don’t want to let you go yet! I’m not ready to face reality again. I’m not ready to give you up!” He screamed and we both went silent as we stared into each other’s eyes that were filled with different emotions.
My heart was reeling with happiness having heard him confess that and I knew it was showing on my face. I took a step forward and wrapped his arms around his waist.
“Just give me time, I’ll try to settle everything and then I’ll
Il come back with you” I pleaded and he sighed.
“I can only understand if you tell me what’s going on. Did something happen back at the mansion that’s making you not want to stay there anymore? Talk to me, Clara” He murmured and I grabbed onto his face.
“Maybe one day I’ll tell you but for now just give me time, I’m begging you” I murmured and he stared at me for a while before letting out a sigh then placing a kiss on my lips.

smiled before nodding.
Ek” I squealed as Damon picked me up from the ground and carried me into the
What was supposed to be some minute bath turned into an hour plus because Damon wouldn’t leave me alone and I wasn’t complaining. Sex always felt good with Damon
Soon after we got out of the bathroom and I got ready in the closet while Damon sent one of the guards to bring his luggage from his car. While he waited, he watched me get ready and I was very aware of how his eyes were watching me intently

“So Daman” I called out and he raised an eyebrow at me.
“Yes?” He replied and I sighed
So Jasmine wanted to taunt me and showed me a picture of you in the club with another girl on your lap. I won’t be mad if you slept with someone else because I was the one who pushed you away but…
“didn’t sleep with anyone else, Clara. Heck i haven’t been able to sleep with anyone else after I tasted you. I’d admit I went there to get Laid and to get my mind off you but it didn’t work” He revealed and I was relieved to hear that he hadn’t slept with anyone during our break and also happy to know that he hasn’t slept with anyone else since he had me
Goddess.knew I wasn’t even thinking of another man anymore
“Okay that’s good to hear i murmured and was about to button up my top when he appeared in front of me and began buttoning it up for
“What about you? Have you met up with Liam during this break?” He questioned softly and I immediately shook my head.
“I can’t be with anyone else besides you for now” I murmured truthfully and he smiled before placing a kiss on my lips.
“Good, same. Now get dressed before I change my mind about any of us going to work and fuck you in this closet” He threatened and squealed then ran away from him as he chuckled.
Soon after, we got in the car after eating breakfast and Damon drove me to my work place. I still couldn’t believe I was the owner no
Now I understood why the Manager’s attitude towards me was more suffocating than before.
“Why don’t you cook dinner for tonight?” Damon uttered as he briefly glanced at me.
“Are you staying for the night?” questioned and he chuckled.
“You don’t want me to stay for the night?” He questioned
“do” I replied firmly and he laughed
now
“I was going to stay anyway so cook dinner, okay? I miss your cooking even though I’ve only tasted it once” He murmured and I grinned,
“Okay husband, your wish is my command” uttered and we both laughed. I finally felt free and happy again. I could only wonder how long it would last.
“See you later then” I murmured and was about to open the door when Damon grabbed my hand and pulled me back then placed a kiss on my lips.
“You’ll give me goodbye kisses from how on He murmured and I chuckled.

As I walked towards the shop, I felt a new sense of authority and pride but as soon as I walked in, I came face to face with Jasmine scowl.
“Wow! Who do you think you are? You’re coming to work in the afternoon just because you’re a Donovan so you think you’re better than us right?!” She screamed, turning everyone’s attention to us.
I let out a sigh and tried walking past her but she grabbed my hand and pulled me back.
“I’m talking to…” I slapped her across the face before she could get her sentence out and she stared at me in shock. I could see her reaction mirrored almost everyone’s in the shop.
“I’ve been tolerating your attitude towards me because I understand that you’re jealous and want to live my life but I won’t tolerate it again. You either respect me or you get out” I muttered through clenched teeth and she scoffed.
“Who do you think you are?!” She yelled.
“I’m the new owner of Urban grind and that means I’m now your boss and as your boss, I’m firing you Jasmine” I muttered and she stared
at me in shock.
WE
“But that’s impossible, you…”
“Like you said, I’m a Donovan so nothing is impossible for me. Get your things and get out of my shop now. Don’t let me call security” I threatened and she glared at me with tears in her eyes then huffed before running away crying.
I stood up straight then stared at everyone.
“If you know you are going to disrespect me then you might as well follow her” I muttered, staring pointed at Jasmine’s minions who were
looking at anything but me.
When no one made any move to leave, I smiled.
“Then get back to work. I’m terribly sorry for the disturbance, please go back to your coffees and business while we attend to you” i murmured and immediately everyone went back to chatting.
I smiled brightly and was about to walk away when I caught sight of Damon standing at the door.
I turned around and there he was leaning against a wall with a proud smile on his face.
“Now that’s my wife” He uttered and I grinned…
