Chapter Twenty-Two

Caleb

It’s been just over a week since Cameron dropped those parting words on me… “And it really wouldn’t have been fair to him, considering I’m still thinking about a guy from my past and all…”

Those words have rattled around my brain more than I care to admit. Playing on a loop. Making me wonder if I am the guy she was talking about.

I haven’t actively been avoiding her since then, it’s just that work has been busy with the lead up to the function, and I have been working on several new projects that have needed all of my attention. But I guess it’s a good thing I’ve been so busy, because otherwise I may have charged into her office and tried fucking her on the desk… yeah, the horny teen inside of me is still raging, but I am a man of control and I need to keep doing what I’m doing, even if it does feel like such a fucking waste.

And now, here I am, stood in the function room as the guests start to roll in. I hate these things, but they bring in business, and my job is to poach as many as I can and bring them onto the books.

I’m suited and booted in my three-piece suit, my shoes have been polished, and I’m even wearing a fucking tie. I hate them, but when occasion calls for it, I’ll put one on.

Not only do I have to spend the evening schmoozing and wooing the potential clients, but I’ve also got Danny’s mother trying to get hold of me. Yeah, haven’t spoken to her in years, but all of a sudden, she wants a chat. I’ve had multiple messages from her, so much so that I decided to leave my phone in my office, because she’s like a dog with a goddamn bone. I can only imagine that she has heard God knows what from Danny—even though he’s still ignoring my calls and attempts to try and speak to him—and has seen a way in, a way to get money, a way to extort something from me. Not going to happen.

So, all in all, I’m feeling rather fucking stressed, and I’m trying to resist the urge to go to the bar and get absolutely smashed—yes, even at forty-two years old, I could still drink until I can’t walk or think straight, especially at this moment in time.

But then, a vision is before me, and I can think of nothing other than her.

Cameron.

She’s just walked in, and fuck me dead, she looks absolutely stunning.

She’s wearing a long, light-purple dress that has a slit up one side, going to mid-thigh, the material hugging her curves. The dress is strapless, her hair is pinned back from her face but flowing down her back in loose curls, and her face looks perfect. She doesn’t need makeup, and she has kept it natural, unlike some of the dolls in this room, and she is by far the most beautiful woman I have ever laid eyes on.
