The pain in my body was numb. I didn't feel it much. The meds worked I guess.

The peace I felt was unexplainable. Me being in his arms. Feeling the slight rise and fall of his chest. His peaceful breaths. His hand wrapped around me making it unable to move even a slightest.

I felt the warmth cocooning me. I felt the heat radiating from him as I gained my senses. I opened my eyes to see him sleeping holding me tightly to him.

The feeling I had inside me was something else. I looked at his sleeping form and he looked sweet.

His hair falling on his forehead totally messed up giving him a boyish look. Something different than this, 'I am the Rey.' look on his face.

It was different and sweet.

It was a sight I would always love to wake up to. Him..

It is funny how before few days, I wanted to run away from him. How I believed in those Demon rumours. He sure as hell is a Demon. But he does have a soft side.

He kills people but I knew he will kill for me.

I felt safe with him.

It was for the first time I thought someone could protect me in any situation. No matter what.

I knew he won't let anything happen to me.

I just knew.

I was starting to like him.

I raised my hand a little feeling his heartbeat under my other palm confirming he was asleep.

I smiled to myself as I raised my hand my fingers running lightly through his hair falling on his forehead.

The soft brown texture of them under my fingertips. I didn't want to wake him up. He looked exhausted.

The fact that he was there for me was overwhelming.

There was a knock on the door and I tried to get up. But his grip tightened around me not ready to let me go.

So I decided to ignore the knock just loosing myself into his thoughts.

What have you done to me Damion?

How did you even managed to get my guards down?

I silently asked him smiling.

I had started smiling more often. Because of him.

There was another knock on the door.

This time so loud that it cause Damion open his eyes.

His sleepy eyes looked into mine and I smiled at him.

"Good morning." I whispered low.

He nodded like he always did to his men. Out of habit.

I smiled at his gesture as he closed his eyes again.

In a moment he opened them again looking at me in utter shock.

I looked at him confused raising my eyebrows.

I blinked few times, his eyes not leaving mine.

The sleepy look in them gone before.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

"Better than before." I smiled.

His lips turned up in a small smile as he looked into my eyes softly. His grip around me, firm yet gentle. trying his best not to hurt me in any way. Little did he know, he wouldn't be able to hurt me even if he tried to.

His hand left up coming to my face. His warm palm touched my cheek and I closed my eyes leaning into it.

My mind foggy and thoughts messed.

"Rey!!" There was another knock on the door as someone shouted.

He quickly pulled down his hand looked at me for one last time before loosening his grip around me. He got up and fixed the covers on me. He walked to the door opening it to reveal Douglas.

"Thank lord you ar-" He stopped mid sentence as his eyes landed on me.

He blinked a few times.

"She is awake?" He asked Damion.

Damion nodded.

He straight walked into the room.

"How are you feeling Ara?" He asked standing near the bed.

"Better than before." I said.

"When did she wake up?" He asked Damion.

"Yesterday night." Damion said.

"Oh.. You were supposed to tell us Damion!" Douglas snapped. Damion rolled his eyes.

"I will get Ken and Will and Roger of course. They all are so worried." He said quickly going back to the door.

"Douglas!" Damion called out.

"Yeah?" He asked.

"What was that you wake me for?" He asked crossing his arms across his chest..

"Oh, that.. Your work is done." He said smiling.

Damion nodded his eyes sparkling.

"I will be back with the rest." He said and walked out of the room. Damion turned his eyes to me.

I didn't ask him anything knowing it wasn't of my business.

He smiled again walking back to me and sat on the bed beside me.

I tried getting up but the my body refused to move without shooting the pain.

He quickly moved towards me helping me to sit on the bed.

"Thanks." I muttered.

He nodded in response.

"Till when I will be able to get off this bed?" I asked.

Sitting on the bed all day was definitely not my kind of thing. Staying at one place irritates me.

"Not until you are totally well." He glared at me.

"But Da-"

He passed my an icy glare challenging me to argue any further.

I looked away from him.

I knew he won't let me get out of this room. No arguing.

I glanced at the room and it took me a moment to realise it wasn't mine.

I narrowed my eyes taking in the details around me. It was huge! The bed I sat on had a window on the right and door on the left. The lights in the room were dimmed but I was sure they can be bright. The door in front corner of the bed probably led to the bathroom. There was a desk near the window and a couch in front of the bed.

The whole room had brown golden shades and wooden flooring. It was calm and relaxing.

"Is this your room?" I asked him turning to look at him.

His eyes were already on me.

He nodded.

Why did he bring me to his room? He could have clearly taken me to mine.

But I didn't ask him this. Cause I knew he wouldn't answer me clearly even if I did ask him.

"Ara!" I heard Ken's voice a smile making it's way on my face.

I snapped my head to the door to see Kenneth, and Douglas standing there smiling at me.

Will was peeping into the room as Ken and Douglas blocked the view.

"How are you?" He asked coming in and sitting beside me.

"Better." I smiled.

"Thank god you are awake! We were all so worried!" Will smiled.

"Yeah.. There was no one attacking the guards for no damn reason!!" Steiner said causing the guys to burst into laughter and me to glare at him.

"I don't attack them for no reason!" I retorted.

Their laughter doubled on that. I saw Damion smirking.

"The wing was so lonely you know? So silent!" Douglas said.

"I missed my fighting buddy." Ken agreed.

"Hasn't she wrapped you guys around her fingers?" Damion mocked them.

Ken glared at him before a small smirk appeared on his face.

"Yeah right. We were the ones who refused to move from beside her."

I glanced at him.

Damion passed him his best icy glare causing Ken to smirk wider. The rest stayed silent.

"Anyway, congrats on the win." Will said smiling.

"Thanks." I smiled back.

"I guess we should leave you to rest." Douglas said looking at Ken and he nodded.

"I will see you guys in the Dark Wing in an hour. We have some work pending." Damion said.

Ken's expressions changed to serious ones and he nodded a sadist smile forming on his face.

Damion gave him a curt nod and four of them went out of the room leaving me alone with him.

I sat there looking at him who seemed to be in a deep thought. The expressions on his face were enough to give creeps to anyone. Silent and deadly.

I just knew what he was thinking about. Someone's sure gonna loose their life.

After all what else they do in the Dark Wing?

I would have definitely love to go there but he had strictly forbidden me to go to the wing. And I wasn't planning on breaking his orders.

"You need something to eat?" He asked.

I shook my head no.

"Okay.. I will just get ready. I have some work to handle." He said taking a step forward.

I nodded. I watched him go into the bathroom closing the door behind him.

I heard the water running. I let out a sigh thinking about the things I could do.

But I found nothing!

He won't let me step out of this damn room.

I knew that very well.

Sneaking out wasn't exactly an option in this wing. Ken won't help me and I can not just sit here all day!

I heard the shower turn off and after few moments I heard the clicking of the door and he stepped out. His hair damp, sticking to his forehead. The water drops visible on his face.

It took me a moment to realise he only had a towel draped around his waist and I quickly lowered my eyes biting on my lower lip.

I knew his eyes were on me and I didn't dare to look up afraid I might not be able to look only into his eyes.

I stared at the covers as my fingers searched for my knife to spin out of my habit.

I felt something on in my fingers and I quickly looked up to see him placing a small but gorgeous blade in my hand.

"Here." He said, "I couldn't find your Swiss knife. I guess we left it back there at the Cruel. I will ask Will to get it. Till then keep this." He said closing my fingers around it. The whole time I just stared at it.

It was gorgeous.

"It is so pretty." I said looking up at him.

That was probably my biggest mistake. I forced myself to keep my eyes on his face not to let them waver from his eyes. Which was quite difficult considering, I could see his well defined chest and abs from my peripheral vision.

His eyes showed mischievous glint as he stepped back and walked to another door beside bathroom's. He walked in and I let out the breath I didn't know I was holding.

I shifted my eyes to the knife admiring it's beautiful features. I held it close to me. It was special.

Damion came out of the closet after few minutes wearing a dark blue dress shirt and black pants, carrying the black suit jacket in his hand.

He buttoned up first few undone buttons and wore the jacket, running his hand through his hair repeatedly setting them perfectly.

I kept looking at him creepily all this time. He walked to the mirror putting on some cologne.

"Uh.. Damion.." I stared nervously, trying to appear as confident as possible.

"Yes?" He said without looking at me as he continued searching for something in the drawers.

"Uh.. May be you can take me to my roo-" I started only to be cut off by him.

"It is fine. You are staying here until you are okay." He said.

"No I mean, you don-"

"It is fine Argyl." He said, "Your plans of sneaking out are not gonna work anyway. There will be a guard out of your room as well." He said continuing with his search.

He knew! He knew me just so well. The thing that scared me so damn much! He could just read me like an open book.

But I can always fight the guard.

"No you won't! Cause I will ask Ken to be there. You can't fight him in this stage!" He said nonchalantly.

"So stay here." He looked back at me, keeping his gun he was searching for in the waist band getting the hold of leather gloves and a colour cube.

I nodded unable to think of any excuse.

He nodded.

"I will be back in few hours." He said smiling. After giving me a final glance, he walked out of the room closing the door behind him with a click leaving me alone with my thoughts.
