Chapter 5: I’m coming with you tonight
'Family my ass,' Damien cursed at the sight before him after opening the door that led into Mrs. Fuggerson's office.
It was small, but big enough to allow the teacher ample space for her staff. A refreshing shade of earthly brown and green colors, with enough light seeping in from the open French doors that faced the grounds, made the office look a bit more homely and nap-worthy than it was supposed to.
But that wasn't the reason why Damien was cursing.
Sitting across from Mrs. Fuggerson on chairs that looked as if they could induce sleep was Ahara. Next to her was her Indian admirer, Kingston Kapoor—a familiar face that Damien didn't like seeing one bit—because he was the only potential threat that stood between him and Ahara's peaceful lives.
Thankfully, she didn't seem to notice him or pay attention to his advances, or else Kingston would have stolen his sister's heart and body away from Damien a long time ago.
"Ah, here comes my lovely son," Kingston's deep voice rumbled in the tiny office as he raised his hand to gesture at Damien, a smirk forming on his lips.
Like Damien, he too had curly black hair, only, his was longer and shinier. The same went to his annoyingly attractive face. Everything about him seemed to challenge Damien, from that ripped body of his with muscle big enough to form curved dents on his shirt, to those ocean-blue eyes and skin a shade darker than Ahara's.
He had an undeniable charm to him that even Damien couldn't deny every time they made eye contact, but that's all it was involuntary approval. Nothing more, nothing less.
"Come sit next to your moth-" Kingston didn't get to finish his sentence before Ahara's elbow dug straight into his belly and made him groan. Knowing how strong his sister's hand was, Damien grimaced, feeling pity for the poor guy.
"Here," Ahara patted the seat next to her gesturing for her brother to sit next to her. He followed suit and in no time, the happy family was all facing Mrs. Fuggerson who had been watching the drama unfold before her eyes silently.
*Ahem*
