Damien
I had never been so glad to be out of the same space with Serena. As soon as the car stopped, I didn't wait for the driver to open the door.
Striding down the hallway of the Ardoria mansion, I felt like a coward. She had been right about that word.
I didn't know what it was that always made my defenses open whenever I was around Serena but I hated it.
In the eyes of every prominent person and news outlet, I was the untouchable, unpredictable Damien Romano.
The man who never loses, the man who could bring down his enemies with the snap of a finger. But since this arrangement with Serena's family and mine, I've been on edge.
Not just because I'm slowly losing my control but because the demons from my past life are showing up in my present.
I knew Vanessa wasn't just calling because of the wedding. I also knew that she wasn't calling because she missed me. I found out about her secret a while ago but I didn't want to let it bother me.
