The following day , I had left the cottage early after showering and headed to training feeling restless and nervous .

My heart was breaking and although I knew this was a decision I had decided on , it still hurt .

I would talk to Damon no matter what , right after , I couldn’t keep delaying it .

After training and once I had showered , I quickly grabbed an oversized hoodie that fell to my thighs and some over – the – knee boots .
I left the packhouse , my hair still wet from the shower , heading straight to Damon’s like a woman on a mission .

Not today .

Not today , nothing was going t o stop me .

I rang the doorbell , letting out a breath I didn’t know I was even holding when I finally reached Damon’s home .

‘ Damon ? I’m outside .

I said through the link softly .

My heart cracking a little more .
” This must be important , huh .

‘ His deep , sexy voice came .

‘ Hmm .

‘ I replied , feeling awful and waiting for him to open up , he did a few moments later .

He had a shirt on , but the buttons were undone , showing off his perfect body .
My stomach fluttered and the pain in my chest reminded me of our connection .

” Hey .

” I said softly .

” Hey , gorgeous .

” He said pulling me into his arms , I closed my eyes , hugging him tightly .

His beating heart was like a soothing melody compared to the thundering of mine … This decision I had made … Was there really no other way ? I knew the answer to that …
” Hey … What’s wrong ? Are you ok ? ” His soft voice brought me out of my reverie , m y heart beating like a drum as I slowly moved back and nodded , forcing a smile .

I was the selfish one here , wanting them both … but I knew who I was prioritising and what needed to be done was for the both of us ….

” Yeah , kinda … Can we talk ? ” I asked softly .

” Sure .

” He said .

” Shall we go for a walk ?
” ” Ok .

we could go towards the woods , somewhere alone … Maybe being inside would

l behind himself , shoving the keys into his pocket . He gave me a small sexy smile and began t o button

and he let me lead

You know that .

He said softly , taking hold of my hands , those sparks of pleasure wrapping me in warmth and kissing my knuckles softly . I closed my eyes ,

I said softly , my eyes

tried to keep the tears at bay I knew I wouldn’t be able to , not today . He frowned

the birds chirping in the trees were the only sounds around us , yet even then , our voices simply blended into our surroundings , promising me that my words
