I spent all night packing my stuff. I was dead on my feet the next day at the Pembroke Hotel. By the time I got off work, I was so tired that I drove halfway to my house before I realized that my stuff wasn’t there anymore—or was it? I really didn’t know exactly what my mother had moved out of our old house. I decided to push forward and found the place mostly gutted except for some furniture and most of the appliances. I was so exhausted by that point that the couch looked like the most comfortable place on the planet. I crashed on it for several hours before the sound of my phone woke me up, and I saw that I had a message from Damien.

Damien: Are you okay?

Leigh: Yeah.

Damien: You didn’t text when you got back to Sinn Manor.

Leigh: I haven’t made it yet. I fell asleep on the couch at my old house.

Damien: Well, you were up all night…

Leigh: Yeah, I’m still tired.

Damien: Want some company?

Leigh: There’s less stuff at my house than there was at Sinn Manor after you got finished with it.

Damien: If you’re there, that’s all I need.

Leigh: Okay, I’ll text you the address.

Damien: Are you hungry?

Leigh: I haven’t eaten…

Damien showed up with a pizza, and I found out that I was a lot hungrier than I realized. I was so tired that I barely had anything all day except for coffee—all it did was keep my eyes open. Damien pulled me in his arms once we were done eating, and despite my desire to make the trip worth his while, I was still struggling to keep my eyes open. The next thing I knew, I was waking up in his arms, and the sun was peeking through the clouds.

“Oh god!” The sight of the morning sky snapped me from dazed to fully awake. “We fell asleep!”

“So?” He rubbed his eyes and sat up.

“I didn’t make it to Sinn Manor last night!” I reached for my phone. “My mother is probably worried sick!”

“Blame it on me.” He chuckled under his breath and pressed his lips to my shoulder. “Is she pissed?”

“Um…” I stared at a blank screen. “She didn’t even check on me…”

“My father has that effect on people.” Damien sighed and pulled me into an embrace. “They forget about everything except what he wants.”

But what does he want with her?

I said goodbye to Damien, drove to Sinn Manor, and showered so that I could get ready for work. It felt like I was just at work because I had slept so much, but I still had to go. I didn’t see my mother or her new husband, but the house was big enough that I could have totally missed them, even if they were home. I rarely saw Edgar’s bodyguards after I moved in. I was glad to find out that they didn’t live with us—but they always showed up when it was time for him to leave the house.
