Chapter 10
Damon
I said it , the reason behind the guilt that had been fucking consuming me since she returned … I needed to tell her anyway . Her porcelain doll – like face stayed in its perfect mask , yet I could feel her pain , hear her racing heart and see the way her fingers trembled ever so slightly on that donut .
Her eyes , which were so fucking unique and perfect , looked at me , but there was n o hatred there . Dammit I fucking hurt her … I’m fucking Sorry , Raven . ” Raven ? ” I whispered closing the gap between us , but she suddenly snapped out of it , despite her erratic heartbeat .
Thanks for telling me . Do you have anything else to say ? ” She asked with a blank face . 1 frowned , slightly concerned . Shit , I didn’t know what to say … Fuck it .
1 stepped closer , pulling her tightly into m y arms . I didn’t care if the donut went everywhere , I just needed to tell her I’m fucking sorry . Her fresh floral scent and the beating of her heart soothed me .
That emptiness I felt inside seemed to lift and I inhaled her scent for a split second before she pulled away roughly . ” Don’t touch me without my permission . ” She growled . ” Now get out . ” I fucking felt like shit , but it was a little late for that . If anything ,
I needed to fix things with her , with Liam …. ” Sure , I’ll leave , but I am sorry Raven . ” I said softly , reaching for her face only for her to move away from my touch . ” Out . ” She said icily . I looked into her gorgeous face ; her pouty lips with that cupids bow … Her slender frame , with those small round breasts of hers and curved hips . She was fucking perfect … I turned away , wishing things could have been different .
There was one more visit I needed to make tonight , and I wanted to get it over with . I left her room , shutting the door behind me , walking down the stairs to see Raven’s dad just step inside . ” Oh hey , Mr Jacobs . ” I said , giving the man a smile .
He gave me a small smile . ” Damon , it’s nice to see you here , catching up ? ” ” Yeah , ” I replied , with a small smile . He nodded in approval . ” What’s that ? ” He asked , looking at the jam on my T – shirt . I smirked , ” Raven being Raven . ” I said . He shook his head chuckling .
” She never changes . ” ” It’s what’s great about her . ” I said giving her mom a small wave . I glanced back up the stairs , but she hadn’t followed.
I could hear a few of the teens in the game room , and I first went to the laundry room to grab a random clean shirt . I don’t really care who the hell it belongs to . I then made m y way upstairs to her room , knocking lightly on the door . ” Who is it ?
” ” The big bad wolf . ” I replied . Her soft laughter followed before the door was pulled open and she pulled me inside , kissing my lips softly . But instead of pulling her into my arms and kissing her back , I moved back , casting her a small smirk . I shut the door , not missing how she was observing me .
10 She was gorgeous , with warm brown skin , dark brown eyes and her black hair , which was currently open . She was so different from Raven , yet still beautiful , She wore a crop top and tiny shorts that left her thick thighs and sexy booty on display .
” Ok , I know that face . What’s up ? ” She asked concerned before she tugged me to the bed . I looked at her calculatingly . How the fuck do I do this ? I needed to end , for a moment I remembered how I felt when Kiara ended it with me .
Although we had just been sex partners , it had fucking hurt www . ” I uh … ” I ran my hand through my hair a s she sat next to me , crossing her legs and placing a hand on my arm , concern clear in her face . ” Damon , you’re scaring me , babe . ” I stared ahead , my hands crossed in front of my mouth . ” You know Raven ? ” I began glancing at her .
She frowned , a pour on her plump , lush lips . ” Yeah ? ” ” Well , it’s just that … We need to end this . ” I muttered . She looked confused for a moment , before her heart thudded in her chest and I knew she understood what I had just said .
I stared into those chocolate eyes of hers seeing the hurt in them . *** ” I … I never knew you and Raven were ever something … I know you talked about her , but I thought you were just friends … ” She whispered , now staring at her hands , examining her painted nails .
I reached over and took her hand . ” She’s my mate . ” I said quietly . Robyn’s eyes closed and I heard her suck her breath in . Shit . Thanks to my selfish reasons , I had hurt two women … She slowly pulled out of my hold , moving away from me on the bed .
Her chest was rising and falling heavily , but despite that , she was trying to hold herself together . ” Shit Damon … She’s your mate … How long have you two known ? ” ” Three years . ” I said quietly . Her eyes flashed and a frown creased her forehead .
” So then why did you even get involved with me ? ” She asked , unable to hide the hurt in her voice . ” I fucking don’t know … I just … You fucking made me feel better . ” I said , feeling like shit . She nodded , placing her forehead in her hand . ” Fuck … That day she returned , no wonder you pulled away ; I thought for a moment it was strange .
Then I thought maybe you two had dated , but then I thought no … I thought you had shared stuff with me … But I never thought she was your mate . What must she have fucking been thinking ?! ” She snapped now , jumping off the bed .
She grabbed a pillow and whacked me across the head . ” You are such a fucking dickhead ! ” Ok , maybe I deserved that . ” I’m sorry , Robyn . ” I said softly . ” You should be apologising to your mate , not me ! ” She shook her head .
” Get the fuck out Damon , we are fucking done . ” ” T ” Yeah , that’s why I came ” OUT ! ” She snapped and I got up , I was literally losing someone else important to me . I didn’t say anything . Casting one last glance at her , she had her back to me , but her heart was racing erratically .
I left , closing the door behind me but I didn’t move , leaning against the wall and closing my eyes . Silence . For a few minutes , there was nothing , until I heard the stifled sobs coming from inside the room . I closed my eyes . She had waited for me t o leave … Dammit … Tonight I had hurt two women I cared for , I really need to talk to Liam like fucking for real.
We needed to sort our shit out , one way o ranother . I headed home , unlocking the front door . I stepped inside , the television was on which meant Mom was still downstairs .
