Chapter-4 A Thief?

As they packed out, Lily was desperate and furious. Desperate because she didn't know where they were going.

 Her husband was literally a psycho, how can he find a place for them to stay, and she didn't have any money with her. And she couldn't ask her parents for that. 

She sneaked a glance at Damien as he packed his things, his face was stone cold and too straight.

 She knew even in his psychic mind, he still missed his parents and everyone that used to surround them. She knew he would miss his younger brother. She missed him too. 

She missed all of them, Mrs Steel, Mr steel. She felt emotional again. She didn't know when the tears were falling from her face, she tried hiding it but Damien had seen it already.

"Hey, are you fine?" He asked her, looking really concerned. Lily's heart felt warm,she still had a place in his mind. She nodded, affirming that she was fine. 

Damien gave her,'i'm not buying that' look.

Before look could say anything, Damien pulled her into a hug and sniffed on her hair. 

Lily was shocked, he wasn't smelling bad at all. He still had his fresh smell, he looked alright to her. She let go of everything and melted into the hug, that's what she need right now.

Someone coughed, interrupting their little moment. Lily got angry. It was Elliot.

"What do you want here Elliot, if it is to remind me that I need to go, I know. But," she said as she took bold steps towards him 

Elliot stood still. His aunty just told him of the encounter between Damien and Mrs Elisa Turner yesterday.

 He decides to keep calm and maintain peace and order not to be beaten to a pulp by this psychopath right here.

"I need to see Celine Baker," Lily asked in a very commanding voice. Elliot stared at her like someone who is out of her mind.

 Damien focused on packing and arranging everything, he had to start taking actions. Now is the time, he can't delay any longer.

"You want to see Celine Baker," Elliot jeered at Lily," Celine wouldn't even recognize you to start with, and by the way you are no longer a BAKER! you are a Steel now!" He said as he laughed out loud.

Damien growled.

Hearing Damien growl made Elliot keep shut immediately. He took a step back as Damien walked to where they were standing. He took Lily's arm, roughly. 

"I have a better house that we can stay in, it's better than this place we are, come with me," Damien said. 

Obviously the looks on their faces showed him that they didn't believe him. 

"W, w-h-a-t do — mean? Where do you have to go?" Lily asked as her head spun in confusion.

How can a mentally ill person know quality of anything. Elliot stopped laughing, he was expecting Damien to beat him up, Damien just glanced at the cousin and focused on Lily.

In order not to take chances, in a Lilyash Elliot took their things and threw them outside through the balcony. 

"Just go!!!" Elliot barked. As he shoved Lily away.

"Where's Mom and Dad?" Lily asked, the tears were threatening to fall, as she looked at Elliot in disbelief.

"They left already," Elliot answered. Not even sparing her a glance. 

Elliot was feeling guilty already, he couldn't even look at Lily's face. He is acting based on orders too. 

He didn't want to die, he didn't want his parents to die, but he had to follow her orders.

Damien had gone downstairs to gather their things and make plans for their movement.

 He couldn't stay there any longer, he couldn't stand Elliot's arrogance and looked Lily's broken face. He didn't want to cause more harm by beating up Elliot. 

As Lily came down the stairs in slow motion, she started having Lilyashbacks into the good old days. 

When they used to be a happy family, before her Dad became filled with greed.

It all started with him attending dinners with the rich people and well known Mafia Lord's. 

He started brewing hatred against Mr Steel, but there was one thing she hoped for. 

She hoped that he was not involved in the death of Damien's parent family. If he were, she thought. She won't think twice to go against him

Outside the compound, Lily saw Damien on his phone and wondered what he was doing, was he being affected by one of his mental breakdown. Damien saw we coming towards him and smiled. 

Lily was taken aback, why the sudden gesture of happiness and joy. She was surprised. She didn't know how to deal with a psycho like her husband.

A taxi pulled up right in front of where they were standing. Lily was confused, how can 

Damien call a taxi with his state of mind.

"14 Avenue, greystone view, '' Damien told the man. 

What! Lily thought. That's one of the richest avenues in the states. It's the Mafia environment.

While in the car Damien just stared outside the window, thinking of how to break things to Lily. He glanced at her, she was asleep. She must be really tired.

Lily woke up immediately and they reached the huge mansion. Why would Damien take her to someone else's house, does he want to sell her ? 

The house looked too exquisite for a man of his state of mind.

"Would you just stare at the house while sitting in the car, when you can have a view of what is inside." Damien spoke to Lily.

"Damien, what are you doing? Let's leave this place, you must not be seen in this area" Lily worriedly screamed.

Damien said nothing, he went to the front door, pulled out the keys and opened the house, using his other hand to welcome Lily in.

Lily was shocked.
