Golden Phoenix Residences

On the 61st floor, Katherine and Damien were sitting on the sofa in the living room waiting for so news. Alia had just joined them, bringing cups of warm honey and lemon tea for them. "How's your grandfather?" Alia asked.

"He's doing fine, thanks for asking," Katherine replied with an appreciative smile on her face. Alia was always thoughtful and she was already used to having her around. Ever since the night of Alia's birthdaywhen they got arrestedtheir relationship improved and Katherine no longer felt uneasy around her. She wished that it would be the sa for Damien and his mother too.

Just then, Styles ca out of his bedroom and he went to see them in the living room. Waving his phone in the air, he inford the others, "Felix just called. They had just crossed the state and are now on their way to the safe house."

The other three breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the good news. Obviously, they still needed to be carefulwhat with Harbor City still swarming with Shadow agents. However, they were pretty confident that Parker's people wouldn't find Chris and Gus so easily because the safe house was not in the city.

The n were still en route to the safe house, so they still had a couple of hours until Gus debriefs them about what happened while he was in the senator's house.

Katherine and Damien looked at each other and he knew what the other was thinking. "You still want to go, don't you?"

She didn't have to ask to know that he was referring to visiting her Aunt Deborah's office at Young Corporation. Without thinking twice, she nodded her head.

"Alright," he said and turned to Styles. "You ready for another round?"

Styles scoffed and cracked his knuckles, a sly smirk dancing on his lips as he responded, "Are you kidding ? I've been waiting for this! It'll be my first ti witnessing my King and Queen together in action. Well, it's an easy mission, but still I gotta be honest, I'm actually looking forward to seeing you both work together."

Katherine and Alia softly chuckled at Styles's enthusiasm. His excitent was contagious that Katherine actually started anticipating it too because it would be her first mission with Damiengranted, just like what Styles said, that it was an easy missioneven so, she was getting giddy at the thought.

The two went to change to more convenient and appropriate outfits. Damien had to go to his penthouse real quick while Katherine changed in her room. Not long after, he ca back down to her penthouse and t her in the living room. All eyes were on him as he entered and Styles blew a whistle, appreciating the effort that Damien took for his clothes.

Not able to stop himself, Styles blurted to Katherine, "How is it possible that King Charming looked even cooler with the way he is now?"

She didn't answer, but she bit her bottom lip as she watched her man walk towards her. Damien wore an all-black tactical jacket, fitted cap, pants, and boots, looking so virile and gallant. He looked like he ca straight out of a magazine.

"What?" he asked when he noticed her gaping at him. "Is there sothing wrong with what I'm wearing?"

Styles snorted as he witnessed Katherine salivating for his King Charming. Wiggling his brows, he couldn't help but tease, "Looks like soone's bed will go EER EER tonightAw!" Katherine slapped Styles's upper arm.

"Dirty," she muttered under her breath, yet a slow smile broke her face as she dragged Damien out of the penthouse.

The couple headed down to the basent parking where their vehicles were parked. And as if Damien couldn't get any hotter than he already was earlier, he strode towards Katherine's motorbike that was parked behind a van, got on it, and turned the engine on.

"Wait, we're taking my bike? And you know how to ride?" she probed.

He didn't answer her question, but he gave her a look that if she deciphered, he probably had said sothing along the lines of: "Co on, it's we're talking about here."

"Hop on." Damien nodded to the space behind him and tossed a helt towards her, in which she swiftly caught with her hands.

A bright smile ghosted her face as she strolled towards him. Katherine had no idea that even this simple thing made her fall for him even more. 'Am I weird? Maybe. But I don't mind at all,' she thought as she climbed on the bike and settled behind Damien.

Putting their helts on, he kicked the stand back to its place, checked the mirror, and revved up the motorcycle. "You good?" he asked, slightly turning his head to the side.

Katherine leaned her chest against his back and slid her arms around his middle as she answered, "You look and sound like a bad boy right now and I like it. Yes, Love, I'm all good."

Damien chuckled as he slapped the face shield of his helt on before squeezing the throttle.

The night was slightly chilly and the road still had many vehicles at eleven in the evening. He increased their speed, expertly countersteering past many cars and trucks as they headed to Young Corporation.

In twenty minutes, they arrived at the block of the building and parked the motorcycle at an alley near the basent level parking. Since Young Corporation's office didn't occupy the whole block, their best option to get inside was through the basent parking.

All of a sudden, Katherine turned away and sneezed into her elbow.

"Are you sure you want to do this tonight?" Damien probed, a look of worry laced his face as he glanced at her.

She nodded and smiled at him. "That was nothing, just so dust. And we're already here... I can't turn back now."

Handing her his handkerchief, he let out a small sigh. "Okay. Then let's get this over and done with so we can get back ho fast."

She put her hair up into a bun and tied it securely. Then, they each wore a black mask that covered their mouths. Slotting an earpiece to their ears, they checked their signal with Styles and when they were ready to go, they crouched towards the downward slope to the parking. The area was already dark and there wasn't any guard on the post.

Katherine, who was in front of Damien, turned to look at him and nodded as she signaled for them to advance. Ever so cautiously, they entered the basent parking and stopped at the empty guard booth for a beat before heading towards the elevators as per Styles's instructions.

Styles had already taken over the security system, so they didn't need to worry about the surveillance caras. However, they still needed to be vigilant in case there were security guards nearby.

The two got inside the elevator car smoothly. Soon, they were headed to the top floor where the CEO's office was located.

"This is strange" Katherine started.

"What is?"

"This You and " She looked up at him and t his gaze. "But it's kinda exciting too. Don't you think so?"

He swore that he saw her eyes sparkled as she said the words. And he couldn't deny it... This was indeed quite thrilling. Who would have thought that they would find themselves in this situation? He couldn't help but smile at her. His lips couldn't be seen due to the face mask but the brightness in his eyes was evident.

"What do you know?" Damien slid his hand to hers and gave it a squeeze. "Our first break-in date."
