Chapter 17

Damien Priest

POV

I walk into my apartment cracking my neck. I throw my car keys in the tray by the door. I walk further. It was a long fucking night. It’s three in the damn morning and all I want to do now is sleep until the sun sets.

Amara’s plan worked like a fucking bomb I couldn’t be prouder of her. With the help of Amara’s friend, we found the entire container. Who would have thought Amara’s crazy idea she brought up weeks ago would work.

With all the heat we’ve been taking recently, Amara suggested we place trackers in all of the crates. Honestly, I told her it was unnecessary and I’m so glad we did it anyway. She brought it up so casually in the meeting and I’m surprised Daniel ran with it and thanks to that we didn’t lose any money. What we did lose is our trust in our men.

Honestly, those thoughts are running through my mind so much I have no idea what happened during that meeting.Having sex with Damien isn’t that big of a deal but what happened last night is so fucking scary I’ve never slept with someone bare before. It felt amazing. The sheer panic that came after ruined the moment.I stare out at the ocean. I love being by water when I’m lost in my own thoughts. Not that the water is helping at all. I feel even more troubled than I did when I got here.“Rowan won’t like me being out like this…” Grace says from beside me.I sigh running my fingers through my hair. “I know but I needed to get out of the house and when you called me, I told you I was going, and you begged me to come with me. Now you are complaining about your old man…” I tease her.She smiles hugging her ever growing belly. I’m

Why I was so nervous, I had no idea why, being alone with Damien has made me on edge every day since Grace told me I had feelings for the man.After discovering there’s a possibility that I might actually love Damien I’d sat down in front of my vanity, looked myself in the mirror every morning and told myself to calm down. I didn’t want to be run by my emotions.I’d been overrun by my emotions since that faithful day. That’s not even the main reason I don’t want to love Damien.Damien is the last person in the world anyone should fall in love with. He’s not the commitment time. The man is allergic to sticking to one woman. I know for a fact that he’d get tired of me and move on to the next woman. I’m not even mad about it.Damien and I were in Chicago for a friend of mine’s wedding. Well not really friend but anyway we’re in town for it. We were staying at a hotel instead of staying i

Rowan asks.I look at my brother. Yes, my mother spoke to me. She tried to comfort me. But our pain wasn’t exactly the same now, was it?"She did.
