"Since when?", Amy yelled as she barged into the commanders' office before slamming her hand on the glass desk, "When?!".
The man simply ignored her looking at the files in front of him. This made Amy anger to only increase.
"It has been two weeks... two whole weeks!!. Why am I learning that you want to expand the empire to the outside world now?!".
The poker face man finally looked her, "Is that a problem?".
"Yes it is a problem", She hissed, "It has been two weeks since Grace death. Two weeks... and how you want to expand our empire to the outside world!?".
"How is that your business? As I can remember l am the commander of the Black eagle not you... I have every right to decide what's best for my organisation and for my spies in the future. Grace's death was an accident... everyone knows that... and I am her uncle I have to take that responsibility to be the heir of the empire. You won't understand now but you will... sooner or later", That all he said before returning his focus back to the files.
This only made Amy anger to triple. She clenched her fist so hard that her nails dug into her flesh.
"You killed her didn't you?".
The man movement halted, he looked her with a frown, "Are you accusing me?".
"Yes I am accusing you of the murder of 357. That's all you wanted.. to take over that's why you killed her. You just wanted power, that's what you wanted".
The man frowned hard at her words, "You think I killed my own niece?".
"Yes you killed your niece to get what you want and now you have it, what else do you want now? Huh? Take over the world?".
"My position here is more than a president", He paused, "So no".
About to reply the door opened. A woman walked in her focus on the tablet she was holding
"Damon", She paused noticing the tension in the office, "163?".
"I'm leaving", Amy stepped out.
"Leave her", Damon said looking at the confused face of the woman, "She thinks I killed Grace".
"Everyone thinks that you killed Grace but nobody wants to voice out their mind", She replied walking towards the desk, "I don't blame 163 for her thoughts, but she is very brave to accuse you Simon".
Damon stood up, "Zara why are you here?".
Zara simply shrugged her shoulders,"Are you bothered about my arrival? I thought that you'll miss me".
Damon silently sighed, "Are you here to train the kids? Or here to accuse me too?".
"Both", She answered not beating around the bush, "Make me believe that you didn't murder Grace to be the next heir to the empire. Make me believe that you are innocent".
Damon stared at her not saying anything. He turned his back at her walking towards the window.
"You..."
"No. I didn't", He answered with flat tone, "I didn't kill my niece".
Zara scoff, "You didn't?", She asked.
Over the years since she has known Damon. The only thing he has ever talked about is power. Power and wealth, and at this moment everything is linking up. The only way to raise to that height of controlling the empire is the be the last descendant of the Queen's, She could only shake her head as she exhale and inhale deeply. Even if Damon is not apart of the Queen's the whole organisation knows him to be the one who has been controlling the Black Eagle for years, even if she trys to do something her effort will just go to waste.
"Are you sure? Are you really sure?".
Damon turned his eyes meeting hers, "Yes I'm sure. I will never kill my niece for power".
"Even if she is not your niece?".
"Yes", He replied without hesitation. Why will everyone keep on blaming him for the death of Kate child? Even if he wants to kill Grace he would have make her disappear without a trace. Not to show off her death like that, "Believe me or not Zara. I have nothing to do with Grace's death. You heard everything didn't you? Her death was an accident. And accident do happen, right?".
Zara looked away, "Fine", She finally gave up, "I believe you, but I still don't trust you".
Hearing those words he smirked when will this woman trust him. Out of everyone he has worked with this woman is really hard to please. He has been having a difficult time with her.
"I know", He turned, "I just hope you'll trust me one day".
Zara eyed his back before exiting his office. Her mind still circulating on Grace death. When Damon heard the door close, he let out a chuckle.
"So this is how power feel like and then to be accused of being a murderer?", He asked no one in particular, "I can't believe it Kate. When I told you to stay with me and I'll love you forever this is how you ended up? Huh?. I still wonder where you are now?", He slid his hands into his pockets as he slowly licked his lips, "I wish I was the one who f**ked you first", He hissed his eyes burning in fury.

"What do you mean?", Justin asked in a lazy tone, "163 you do know that accuses thrown like that is punishable by death like", He was tired of Amy accuses, he wish he could just vanish into thin air.
"No one will belive right?".
Earlier Amy had a theory that the commander was trying to rule the world for his gain, and Justin really can't keep up with her theories.
"No one will believe you", He told her, "Listen, 163 you know the rules right? And you're breaking them. This will only put you in danger if you continue with this. I know you're saying this because you are the most special person now in the whole world but still doesn't mean they won't eliminate you without thinking twice. We need you here, but you are wasting your time by saying this!".
Even though he spoke fast Amy clearly heard what he said.. every detail. She sighed as she crossed her arms, clearly displeased.
"Even if you don't believe me. I trust my instincts... the commander is planning something and I will prove it even if it cost my life".
