Midnight Phantom Chapter 93: Leaving
[Cara]The dread has been filling me these past few hours after Nancy’s gone missing.Transient happiness brimmed me when mom came in. Though I was not expecting Simone’a appearance for tonight, his presence right now is greatly appreciated, and I could tell that it helped Aunt Margarette a little to be surrounded by those people she knew she could rely on.After the loss of his husband due to ruptured aneurysm years ago, Nancy was all she had left. Aunt Margarette and mom had been close friends before I was born. It was the right decision for me to make mom come over, aside from the fact that I mainly wanted her so that I could make sure she was alright. Aunt Margarette desperately needed emotional support to help her get through these dark times.We all needed each other.I could say Damon did not approve of this. He even treated Simone poorly. But somehow, I managed him to agree, even if this meant submitting myself to him completely.I mean, he may have already taken a lot from m
Midnight Phantom Chapter 94: Electric Prod
[3rd POV—Nancy]A bludgeoning headache hit Nancy soon as she roused to consciousness. The back of her throat eyes felt like they’d been sucked deep into her skull, and cotton balls jammed right into her throat. She tried to open her eyes, but the more she forced them wide, the more it hurt, eliciting a loud hiss to slip between her lips.What happened? She thought, wracking her brain with recollections of things. She was supposed to meet with her mother when things… ‘Have I got into a car accident? No, someone was following me,’ she recalled. Three cars tailing over her at the roundabout, and another came blocking her way.The reverberating sound of gunshots rang in her memories, jolting her body from where she had been laid flat, with each bullet striking her car. It was a miracle that she was not wounded, but she remembered people forcefully yanking her out of her vehicle. The sudden movement caused pain shooting down her back, prompting sudden gaps out of her and eyes peeled wide
Midnight Phantom Chapter 95: Cold Barrel
[Cara]I could taste the bitter tension thick in the air, while my mom’s clammy hands gripped into mine tightly. I rub my thumb over the inside of her wrist, trying to calm her down. I need to act as if I am not scared, when in fact, I am. I know I am making a hasty decision and threats were prowling near us. But I just can’t take it anymore. I already have enough of everything and all I wanted to do is to save Nancy from wherever hellhole she might be now.Damon’s booming footsteps catch on us, and not a second later he appeared right in front of me. He looks like he was about to snap, but was hanging on a threat of patience left in him not to kill us all.That’s right. How could I ever forget that this man is a cold-blooded killer?How can I ever trust him with my life when he himself has already taken the lives of countless others without showing the slightest bit of remorse for his actions? For all I know, he doesn’t really have a plan for saving Nancy and was only trying to gasl
Midnight Phantom Chapter 96: Simone’s Place
[Cara]I told Simone to take us to his place since that is the only place where I think Damon would not go. He suggested that we should all rest first and we’ll get into it tomorrow morning. Simone lived in a bachelor’s pad and it wasn’t much since he was just transferred here. Good thing he has one small vacant room that we can all squeeze in.Simone also initiated we should get ourselves some personal things on our way here so we can change our clothes into something comfortable. My mind seemed to have shut down for a moment, leaving my body in auto-pilot mode. I just pulled out a couple of random clothes off the rack and paid for everything we get.No one seemed to eat right after even though Simone had ordered us large boxes of pizza and fried noodles. Nothing seemed to be appetizing, so instead, I just went into the guest room and get ready to sleep. My body was almost drained of energy, exhausted, though my heart still ached after what happened back at the mansion. I let out a
Midnight Phantom Chapter 97: Rage
[3rd POV—Davien]Davien watched Damon inside their torture room behind the thick glass wall. Flinging, throwing, kicking, and smashing everything he can get his hands on. He was screaming nonstop for hours and his hands were already bleeding from punching the wall and tearing the room apart.Ever since Cara left the mansion with that FED guy, Damon simply lost all control and turn feral. Davien couldn’t even control him anymore. Three men are dead because he beat the shit out of them. He basically turns into a beast the moment his beauty was gone. Davien didn’t know what to do with his brother anymore. It upsets him that they didn’t know where Burson had taken Nancy and now Cara knew about everything, she’s gone too.This is one of the reasons why he doesn’t want to get attached to someone that would soon leave him. Davien admits felt a twitch with Nancy and it made him so mad to find out she’s gone missing. If he doesn’t know how to control his emotions just like Damon, he would have
Midnight Phantom Chapter 98: Lesser Evil
[Cara]Simone stared at me in blended emotions of confusion and incredulity. Probably he was thinking about how I could ask such a thing to let a man roam free if ever he was proven guilty of multiple crimes. He sighs and remove his hands from mine as he stood up. He looked stressed one hand akimbo waist while the other rubbing on his temple. “Cara, I know a dangerous man when I see one. Mr. Montreal screams all kinds of danger in every of directions.”“I know.” That I couldn’t argue with.Simone was very right when he says how dangerous Damon can be. He saw with his own eyes how he reacted when we were about to leave his place. The brewing storm inside him was ready to unleash anytime and whatever was stopping him from pulling the trigger was thinner than a strand of hair and was ready to snap. We were lucky to get out of there unscathed.There was a long stretch of silence shrouded between us. I finished my drink, wincing at the strong aftertaste fuming out of my nostrils. Without
Midnight Phantom Chapter 99: Colleagues
[Snow] One thing that I am glad about with human biological imprints is that no matter how stressed and hurt a person can be, the body knows when to rest and shut everything off, letting me sleep dreamlessly.The following day, feather-light caresses roused me up. At first, in my half-asleep state, I thought it was Damon, considering how many times he had disrupted me in the middle of my sleep. But then, I would immediately recognize his touch. His palm was rough, and his hand was heavy. This one is the exact opposite. Smooth and light like the angel’s touch or like one from a mother.Just like that, a melody of a voice drifted into my ears, making me instantly smile before I got to open my eyes. “Hey, sweetie, good morning.”“Mom.” Her smiling face was the first thing I saw, and I prayed to God I wasn’t dreaming, and I was indeed with my mother. It was not even a minute before dread spiraled down my spine and settled on the bottom pit of my gut when I remembered how the conversatio
Midnight Phantom Chapter 100: Snake
[3rd POV—Damon] A little bit calmer than the last time, Damon settled on his black leather couch in his study inside his mansion. Staring at the half-empty bottle of whiskey perched on top of his desk while absent-mindedly tracing his finger on the rim of the glass he was holding. Unlike his usual impeccable state, the tie around his neck hung loose. His coat was haphazardly thrown into the floor, his hair unruly and sticking up in all directions. The three first buttons of his shirt were undone, exposing the fine sweaty hairs littering his chest with the tips moistened with sweat.He hasn’t changed his clothes since his little outburst of rage a while ago, even though Davien managed to talk him out. The wave of anger boiling him up inside didn’t abate.Cara’s face played in the forepart of his mind, her subtle laughter ringing distantly in his ears. Her smile and the feel of her soft skin against his body. The ache twisted horribly on his chest whenever he saw the pinkish scars marr
