I was sitted at my usual spot as the match went on. It was one of my best fighter fighting, but I just couldn't concentrate on watching it. It was because my mind was very far. It started ever since I arrived in the sea side town of the city of Orgwarts, with a plane, I haven't been myself.
"Boss, are you feeling okay? " Matt my bodyguard asked after he noticed I wasn't watching the match.
"Yeah, I just need to step out for a bit, " I said standing from my seat, Matt took my coat and helped me put it on.
I took the elevator to avoid the crowd down stairs, with Matt besides me.
"I got to know that she snuck out from home to attend a party. " Matt said.
"Did she _what kind of party? " I asked.
"Just teenage party, celebrating for their upcoming high school graduation. " He said.
"At what time should the party end? " I asked Matt.
" Parties are unpredictable sir, but it depends on what time they will get tipsy and leave."Matt explained.
" What! She hangs out with drunkards? "I asked shocked.
" It's not like that, she only drinks energy drinks.... According to my investigation."He said.
I just sighed, then the elevator doors opened and I got out. When we reached the exit, my security men made way and at that exact moment, my other bodyguard, Jaden stepped out of the black Range rover and walked hurriedly towards us.
"How is she now? " Matt asked him.
"She's still in the club as I left. " Jaden state making my expression harden even more.
"You did what?! " I questioned.
"I... I am... I left... But I'll go back later boss." Jaden said sensing my anger rising.
She's just a girl with no protection with her now, and he dare to leave her alone!
"Don't bother. " I said getting calmer. "But.. " I said then turned and faced Matt. "If anything happens to her, you both will pay for it! " I assured.
Then I took out my cigarette, and Matt light it up for me with the lighter. I took it in, then released the smoke out.
I then turned and walked away from them heading into the street.
Jaden tried following me, but Matt stopped him saying I need a moment alone, which was true.
I met Immaculate when she was just twelve years old. A pretty, adorable and amazing child. I had gone to the Amber's mansion to finish up some business I had with her uncle Clark Amber, And that's when I met that burgundy haired girl. She was sweet to me at our first meeting.
We became friends for two weeks, and I got to know at which school she studies in, I used to send her gifts but she never knew they were from me. I would often go to her house and spend an hour with her. One time she said something surprising.
"Damian." She called out holding my hand.
I stared at her small fingers rubbing my hand.
"Yes Imma. "
"I want you to marry me when I grow up_especially when I'm 18, that's when I'll be matured enough for you. " She said.
I was surprised. I just smiled in the inside. I Pat her head and said nothing.
After that I never saw her, since I travelled on a business trip outside the country.
But I never left her alone. I ordered my men to watch over her and tell me of her every move, every birthday, every school events...
Until now I'm back after 7 years.
I was still walking in the streets while smoking my cigarette, then I heard a feminine voice crying for help, I peeped from the shadows, and saw someone I had not seen for a very long time. It was Imma, and someone was hurting her.
"You did not just touch my Imma! " I said to myself, took in the stimulant and released the smoke. I threw the left over on the ground, took out my gun then cocked it and I walked out of the shadows.
"Let go of her! " I said in my usual calm tone.
"Stay out of this Idiot! " He said.
(He did not just call me an idiot) I thought.
I just ignored it and walked close to them.
I could see how she was scared but she couldn't do anything. When I walked close again I saw her purse was on the ground, so to mean the man was not after her money... But what exactly.
"Hey! Don't come any closer or I won't hesitate to do anything to her! " He shouted while the knife he had was so close to her neck. I stopped in my tracks, and saw her eyes wide open.
"Please sir, don't come any closer... I don't want to die. " She pleaded.
I just smirked, then held the gun firmly facing the guy. I suddenly had an idea.
"I want you to come to me. " I said camly then pointed my gun to his left leg and shot.
She immediately took the opportunity to push him as he screamed. He tried to catch her again, but I shot his right arm weakening him and the pain became too much.
Imma stood aside watching the whole scenario. The man fell on his knees as he tried to stop the bleeding on his arm.
"Aaah!! " He screamed then threw the knife towards me, but missed to cut deeply on my cheek.
"Too slow. "
It made me angry and now I wanted him dead. "You fucking mother_" He state but I couldn't let him finish his sentence.
I shot him straight into his head by the forehead and blood splashed all over his face. I killed him and didn't even bother to look around to see who saw me.
I rubbed the little blood on my cheek then placed my gun in coat. I took her purse and walked to the astonished Imma.
I reached it out to her and she took it while staring at me, like she never knew I existed.
Let me take you home Imma. "I told her.
She stared at me puzzled, I didn't expect her to remember me after all those years.
" B... But you just killed a person and you want to leave just like that? "She asked.
" Don't worry it will be taken care of. " I state and immediately Matt and Jaden walked to us. They saw the corpse lying there on the ground very bloody.
"We heard the gun shot Boss, are you alright? " Matt asked.
"We're both fine_just take care of it. " I said then looked back at Imma and gestured for her that we start walking.
"On it boss. " They said and we left them there, since it's not the first time it has happen as long as no trace is left.
I saw the upper garment she was wearing didn't seem to be warm, so I took out my coat and placed it on her.
"Thanks." She said.
When we arrived at my black range Rover, I opened the door for her and she got in, I closed the door and walked to the other side and also got in.
I started the engine and drove towards her home.
"How do you know where I live? " She asked breaking the silence.
"Your uncle Clark worked with me and I also got to know about you. " I said.
"May I ask_what's your name? " She asked innocently.
"Damian."
It seems like it rang some bells, since she pondered for a minute, maybe trying to remember why the name sounds so familiar.
I had miss her, to say the truth. She has grown up to become so beautiful. Her eyes always green and sparkle in joy, her hair grew longer and amazing, her pretty face was attractive and now she combines it with make up,her body is grown like that of a young lady... Just everything about her is magnificent just like before.
She then took something out of her purse, probably wipes.
"You have blood on your cheek. " She said then wiped it.
The wipes were cold and smooth as wiped.
Her fingers held my jaw line to keep me still.
And another thing she's still caring as before.
When she was done, she put the other wipes back and rubbed my cheek.
"All done. " She said.
"Thanks." I state.
"You're welcome Damian. " She told me then stared at the other side of the window.
Finally we arrived. Two of her uncle's men opened the door for us. Clark was standing outside the door waiting impatiently for his niece.
She slowly walked towards him.
"Uncle C..."I can explain. " She said.
"I'll find you in the study Imma. " That's all he said.
She then turned took off the coat and gave it back to me. "Thank you Damian for saving my life. " She said then got inside the house.
Clark walked to me smiling. "I am terribly sorry for causing you this trouble Mr. Miller. " He said.
"It's fine, as long as she's back safely. " I responded.
"Oh tomorrow is her graduation ceremony and also her 18th birthday, I invite you personally. " He told me.
I knew about it anyway and I was going to attend it also without an invitation.
I took the two cards and walked back to my car and I drove to my home.
