Stuart and Jeff fold reasonably quickly. After each of us select a new card, Morgan decides to up the ante.
âOkay, so I will throw in a favour as well.â He looks between me and Damien.
Damien removes his watch and places it in the middle of the table.
I look down at my cards. I have a straight flush. Only a royal flush can beat me at this point. Besides my next bet is never one that has been a problem before.
âVIP backstage passes to the next gig The Forgotten play in London.â Damien narrows his eyes at me. I know my friendship with Alex is a sticking point for him.
âWow, that is some nice perks you can get from Daddy, huh?â Jeff laughs from the kitchen, having abandoned the game to get another round of beers in.
I laugh at him, even though it pisses me off when people make assumptions like that. âNo Daddy Devine doesnât help with this. I know the guys all on my own.â
Cassius clears his throat, clearly sensing the tension rolling from his twin. âRight then, show of hands. Morgs you first.â
Morgan places a full house, looking pleased with himself. I laugh with it being my turn to show next, I fan my straight flush onto the table, immediately wiping the smile off Morganâs face. We all turn our heads in Damienâs direction.
With no emotion what-so-ever Damien slowly drops his cards onto the table before he stands up and pushes away from the table, leaving Cassius to spread his cards.
Revealing a Royal flush.
He beat me god damn it. I have forgotten the taste of defeat it has been so long.
I watch him stalk out of the room, leaving it a few minutes before I follow him. I know he needs a second to cool down after the mention of Alex. I also do not want to pander to him, the sooner he realises he has nothing to worry about on that front, then the better for the both of us.
I take a few gulps of my fresh beer before heading down the hallway after him. His bedroom is empty but the door to his en-suite is closed. I prop myself up on the edge of his bed and wait for him to finish. Running my hands over his bedsheets I resist the urge to wrap myself in the fabric. This room is so distinctly him, that I want to immerse myself completely.
Boy am I failing bad here.
In fact, I sound like a full-blown stalker at this point.
âPerhaps not a stalker, more of a crazed fan.â Damien steps out of his bathroom making me realise I must have uttered those last words aloud.
He props his shoulder against the door frame and folds his muscular arms across his broad chest. A dark smirk pulling at the corner of his mouth as he stares at me through hooded eyes.
I inwardly breathe a sigh of relief. He is obviously over the Alex thing for now.
âWhat are you doing in here, Angel?â Despite his composure, I can hear the strain in his voice.
