Chapter 14

Imani weaved through occupied tables as she made her way to an empty spot in the corner of her favorite coffee shop.

She took a sip of her caramel macchiato, savoring the sweet taste as she waited for Cyd, Mya and Lex to arrive. She was meeting with the girls for a much-needed shopping trip and was the first to arrive.

The annual barbecue was slowly approaching, and she hadn’t seen Daman for a few weeks. Earlier that day, her mother had informed her that she invited Daman to the barbecue. Even though they hadn’t spoken to each other since returning from Florida, they had both talked to Vicky and the volunteers for the gala on conference calls at least three times a week. Everything was running smoothly, and Imani wondered why the Simses even needed their help when Vicky, Pete and the students were apparently very capable of planning the gala without them.

As she took a sip of her warm drink, she tried to push Daman out of her mind. She hated the fact that she allowed him to dominate so many of her thoughts. She couldn’t deny that she missed being around him. The proposition he gave her at his mother’s house seemed reasonable, considering their strong attraction to each other. She had thought that all she would need was a couple of weeks to reprocess the situation and decide that an affair with Daman wasn’t worth it. That didn’t work. The longer they were apart, the more she wanted to say yes to him. The only thing she confirmed in their time apart was that an affair with a man like Daman was exactly what she needed. She had to get him out of her system no matter how short their affair would be. He’d proved that he could definitely deliver in the bedroom...if given the chance.

Her iPhone rang, disrupting her thoughts. She quickly glanced at her screen before answering.

“Hello, Vicky. Is everything okay?”

“I’m afraid that I have some last-minute news that needs immediate attention. I received a phone call from one of our biggest sponsors for the gala, Mr. and Mrs. Walsh. In this economy, everyone is suffering and the Walshes sound unsure about sponsoring any events this year. They are good people, but they like to have their butts kissed every now and then. I need you and Daman to go visit them at their home in St. Simons Island, Georgia. They’re having a brunch with some of Atlanta’s finest so it would really be great if you both could attend on behalf of the staff.”

Imani instantly felt a little excited by the thought of seeing Daman again.

“Sure. Have you talked to Daman?”

“No, I called you first. The brunch is this Saturday. Would that be a problem?”

Imani promptly searched through her planner. “No, that won’t be a problem.”

“Great, I’ll call Daman now.”

“Thanks, Vicky. I’ll give Daman a call in about ten minutes, after you tell him about the meeting.”

As Imani hung up the phone, her thoughts drifted back to Daman.
