Chapter seventeen

BEYONCE POV

"I need to rest." I said pulling up the duvet to my chest level.

"I know." He said staring at me and I kept staring at him.

"Why are you here?" I asked clearing my throat and looking away.

"Two things actually. The first is, showing care about your loved ones. I guess we are the same on that one. It was amazing." He said and I scoffed.

"We aren't the same on anything. We can never be the same okay?" I said and he nodded.

"I get that. You have been making the fact that you hate me for the past few days." He said sitting at the edge of the bed.

"You deserve to be hated. Sorry to say." I said and he smriked.

"No don't be sorry. Because I am not sorry for anything I do." He said smiling.

"Are you that heartless? You are not sorry?" I asked and he sighed.

"I wish to feel sorry but I can't. I switched off anything called human in me." He said looking at me.

"You switched off?" I asked arcing my brows.

"Forget about that. The second reason I am here is to ask you about the orphanage home. How was it?" He asked.

"You seem concerned about it. Does that mean you care for children?" I asked.

"I do care for children, if they don't mess with me or my family. Everyone here did something to get on my nerves. If they didn't, they won't be here." He said.

"And because I hurt your mom indirectly, I am here too." I said and he nodded.

"Yep! The greatest sin against me." He said and I sighed.

"If you know it's the greatest sin, why are you still acting like you care? You should have killed me or perhaps, fed me to your men by now." I said and he breathed out.

"I don't know. So will you tell me about the Orphanage home?" He asked standing up and I kept mute for some minutes, remembering what Mary said I should do, and act when with him.

"look for his bright side."

"It's a place for hope. Many of us lose hope when our parents leave or abandon us. We feel rejected and unwanted to the world."

"The orphanage home shows and proves to us that we aren't alone. That we are still loved and can be given another chance to be what we want to be." I said remembering the orphanage home, Ma'am Anita, Raphael, all over again.

"If it was that comforting, why did you leave?" He asked and I sighed.

"I wanted to know what it meant to be outside those walls. I have used 20 years of my whole life doing nothing. I wanted a future for myself." I said as tears threatened to fall off my face.

"Where you adopted by any family at all?" He asked folding his arms.

"Not a chance. There was a rumour all over town that my parents were witches, so no one wanted me." I said as the tears finally rolled down my eyes.

"You are Mr and Mrs Bitmony's child?" He asked in shock and I nodded.

"I guess you heard the rumors too. Never knew we were quite popular." I said cleaning my tears and trying to smile a little.

"So, you left the orphanage home, and then...." He said.

"Found my self in hell. Right here." I said smiling and he sighed.

He wanted to say something but then I saw him hesitate and his face change to a straight one.

"So how was meeting with my brother like?" He asked and I scoffed.

"He was nothing compared to you for sure. He made me smile when all you did was make me cry. We drank champagne together and he told me something that I think can never be possible." I said shutting my eyes.

"And what is that?" He asked.

"That's between your brother and I. I am a secret keeper. I am so good at it." I said smiling.

"Why are you so stubborn? Do you want me to force it out?" He asked in an hoarse voice and I smiled.

"You have been forcing me to do things since I got into this hell. I guess I am paying for the fact that my dead parents were witches. So it can't surprise me." I said.

"You aren't going to say it, are you?" He asked angrily.

"Nope. Why don't you ask your charming, sweet and handsome brother. Of course he will tell you. He loves you right?" I asked smiling.

He stared at me before walking to the door.

"Trust me,I am beginning to consider his offer. He is very sweet." I said and he stormed out slamming the door in anger.

I smiled knowing he interpreted what I said in a wrong manner. He should think nothing close to what I have for him.

Damon would be a very good person to help.

I grinned and turned to sleep soundly. At least I registered something in my mind for the first time. I am beginning to like this Mary's idea.

RAMSON POV

I walked out of her room and headed to Damon's room. I opened the door and walked in to see him walking out of the bathroom with a towel round his waist.

"Hey little brother." He said smiling.

"You seem to be really enjoying the Atmosphere." I said approaching him with my hands in my pockets.

"Of course. Why won't I enjoy the atmosphere, after my little brother threw me a party filled with beautiful ladies that keeps tempting me to go back to my old self." He said and I smiled.

"About that, what did you talk to Beyonce about?" I asked and he laughed.

"Little brother, right from the minute you walked in through that door, I knew you wanted to talk about your newest catch. Have a seat." He said and I sighed sitting on the couch as he dried up his body.

"Look here Ramson, I am here to do you a favor. I am not here to take any of your toys." He said and I kinda felt offended.

"Beyonce isn't my toy." I mumbled.

"Wow that's new. You always call them that. And because I noticed you don't see her as one of them, that's why I want to help you." He said.

"Help me? Seriously? Because you keep decieving everyone you have changed? Have you forgotten?" I asked and he sighed.

"Ramson I remember everything. And was chased out because I was worse than you were. But when I got out there, I met with someone who changed my way of thinking." He said and I laughed.

"You sound like you believe in fairy tales." I said mockingly.

"It was no fairy tale. She was the best thing that has ever happened to me. She was captured by me when I saw how beautiful she was. Believe me, she did nothing to deserve it."

"I thought using her and dumping her was the deal, but after some months, I couldn't let her go. She changed me." He said.

"So where is this angel who are talking about? She should be here now." I said and he sighed standing up and walking to a table which had a drink on it.

"She changed me, but not completely. After few months of confessing my love to her, i got to know that she never loved me, and the one true love she had was one of my men." He said.

"I told you, they are not worth it." I said standing up.

"They are, the right ones. I was so angry and I got both of them killed. My heart was scattered and I couldn't think straight for weeks, and that's why I came back. To get my mind off her."

"Though it didn't end the way I wanted it to end, she still change the way I saw things. And that can't change anymore." He said.

"So how do you intend to help me?" I asked shrugging my shoulders.

"Hayley never told me she hated me, but Beyonce said it and made it know how much she hated you." He said looking at me.

"And that's a good thing?" I asked.

"Of course it is. She isn't pretending, she is trust worthy about how she feels about you even though she knows you can kill her. And now I see you aren't even close to hurting her. She is the best one." He said and I smriked.

"Best one for what?" I asked sarcastically.

"Don't worry Ramson. As times goes on, you will come to understand what I mean. This isn't the life you want." He said.

"You don't decided the life I want big brother. Good night." I said smiling walking out of the room and heading to my room.

UNKNOWN POV

"He is with his brother, having fun I guess." I said angrily.

"We can't let him go Scott free for what he did to us. He has to pay. He should know no happiness." She said and I nodded.

"I get it. We just need more plans. They are together now, they are more powerful together." I said.

"And that is why we need to go for someone who won't be with them 24/7." She said.

"Their Mother." I said staring at the papers on the wall.

"Exactly, their mother. We know she never wants to leave her husband's house for long. She goes to visit the sons for few days and they do to her too. We can get to kill her when they aren't with her." She said.

"Ramson has his mother protected everyday. That will be a death sentence." I said.

"I don't care! I need him to suffer before he dies. He took the most precious thing I have away from me. I will risk everything I have to see him pay." She Said and I nodded.

"Okay. We take the mother then." I said.

"Yes. We take the mother." She replied firmly.
