PopularNovelChapter 0239 Neah Standing over the empty cribs in the nursery, I still wasn't happy that the twins would be sleeping in here tonight. Though I knew it was in their best interests, it still hurt.
"I thought I would find you here." Damiens deep voice echoes around me, making the room feel emptier than what it is. "You know I'm on duty tonight." I spin around to look at him with wide eyes. "You are?" "Dane thought you would feel more comfortable if it were me. You know I won't let anyone hurt them." "Thanks." I mumble.
"Plus I can keep an eye on Dottie." "The nightmares are getting worse again, aren't they?" I had heard her last night. Whimpers of desperation that she couldn't explain.

"She's young. She has a loving father." He rolls his eyes at my words. Almost seven months on and he still wasn't used to his new role. "She has the chance to grow up surrounded by people who adore her. It will beca distant memory." He leans against the door frand folds his arms. "She's got a chance that you never had." I smile sadly. She really was lucky that Damien had found her and not another asshole. Though he never did get a chance to find out if Salem had known she was in the bar.
"Were you looking for me?" I ask, remembering what he first said.
"I was." "Why?" He furrows his brow, choosing his next words carefully. "Blair had a gun." "I didn't see a gun." "Mallory said it was shoved down the back of her leather leggings. That's why she jumped down from the tree when she did. She thought you were going to get shot." "She told you that?" He dips his chin and waits forto say something else. When I don't say anything, he tellsthat Mallory was just trying to help.
"Like the tshe tried to help Cassandra?" The spite rolls off my tongue.
"She's never forgiven herself for that. She has killed others, but she has never forgiven herself for what she did to you." "Good." "She can't change the past, Neah. None of us can." His words stab my heart. Dane had said the exact sthing. Tellingcould only make a better future. "You think I should forgive her?" "I think you should at least listen to her. Then if you still don't like her. She will leave." I could see it in his face that he hated the idea of her leaving. "I can be there if it makes you feel comfortable." "No." "Neah she's trying....." "No, I mean, I will go but I don't want you there." He raises an eyebrow at me, "Are you sure?" "I will talk with her tomorrow." 'And then she can leave.' Nyx murmurs. I don't repeat her words as Damien walks away with a smile.
**** It felt impossible to relax. Like I shouldn't be allowed to. The boys hadn't stirred so far, sleeping heavily as Damien and another guard hovers outside their door.

"They are fine." Dane mutters, pullingtoward the bathtub. His lips catch my jawline, inching along my shim bylong my towards the mark on my neck. "You need to relax." He murmurs, sending his breath fanning across my skin and igniting every nerve ending. He steps back, watching me. "Now take off your clothes." Pulling the sweatshirt up over my head, a smile spreads across his face. His crimson eyes alight with hunger and desire.
I keep my eyes locked with his as I slowly push down my leggings and panties and step out of them.
"Get in." He orders.
Stepping into the hot water, I let out a gasp. The heat was always a comfort, draining the worries from me.
Hugging my knees to my chest, I close my eyes, letting everything fall away when he steps in behind me! His legs slide down either side of E mine as he pullsback against his solid chest. His hardened length is already pressing against my lower back.
His teeth catch my earlobe, sucking it into his mouth as his hands cup my breasts. Thumbs brush over mym hardened nipples followed by a quick ET pinch as his lips move from my ear to my neck, drawing a quiet moan from my throat as he sucks on the mark he gave me. Tipping my head back on his shoulder, his lips roughly find mine. He sucks in my bottom lip, dragging his teeth along it before releasing me.
