Chapter Thirteen

As if I wasn’t keyed up enough over Damien coming to the office to play the part of Tessa’s boyfriend, he kept sending me aggravating texts all day, almost as if he was trying to punish me for making him do this.

You might want to send out an email and warn your coworkers about the eye-candy coming to your office today.

I’m having a good hair day. Gonna slay some hearts. Hope you don’t fall under my spell.

Have you considered that Tessa might fall for me and dump the other guy? Sure you want me to come?

The fact that every one of the texts made me smile as much as roll my eyes didn’t make it any better. The guy was just out of control, and in this mood, there was no telling what he might do once he was in the office. Just in case he planned to do something crazy, I sent him one text in response.

I’ve got plenty of supplies here to make signs. I could even save them to take to the wedding on Saturday. You might want to watch your back.

Feeling like I’d for sure shut him up with that one, I put my phone down in triumph—only to pick it up again a minute later when it pinged with a new message. Preparing myself for the worst, I looked over and saw that he’d sent me a picture. Of his bare back.

He’d taken a selfie in the bathroom mirror with his shirt off. With an arrogant pose that displayed a whole new angle to his athletic build. Clearly the guy didn’t skip back day in his workouts.

I still hadn’t unstuck my eyes from the picture, despite my burning cheeks, when I got another text from him.

How about if you watch it for me?

As embarrassed as if he could see me gawking at his picture, I slammed my phone down hard enough that I had to check for cracks on the screen before getting back to work. But even as I focused on finishing the last few tasks Mr. Jennings had given me, my mind flashed back to Damien’s living room two days ago when he’d said, “Seeing me without a shirt on must really unsettle you.”

Was he doing this on purpose? If so, why?

I still hadn’t figured it out when the lunch hour rolled around, and I felt like I should have. There was no way Damien would be trying to “unsettle” me because he was interested in me. I mean, sure the guy flirted with me, but that was just part of his personality. He could no more resist flirting with women than he could resist the need to breathe. Despite my inner wariness, I’d come to just accept and even enjoy that facet of his charm. I felt safe because there was no way he meant any of it seriously. Why would he? I’d seen the girls at his party last week. Not to mention he wanted me to be his date to the wedding because I was scary and intimidating.
