Damian and Layla Excerpt
As she
hurried to the back of the tent, a hand reached out for her and pulled her into
the bushes. Before she could let out a scream, her mouth was covered and a deep
voice whispered in her ear. “Don’t scream. It’s me.”
She immediately
recognized Damian’s voice and more so the feel of his body pressed against her
back. He slowly turned her to face him, all the while making sure to keep her
in his embrace.
Layla
looked up at him with wide eyes, “What are you doing here?” she breathed. “You
scared the crap out of me!” She smacked him in the arm with her purse.
“What are
you doing here?” he returned.
“I work
here.”
“What?”
“I’m
Sunset Reads’ new PR Director.”
His brow
furrowed at her news, and then his eyes traveled lower, down her throat, over
her collarbone, to the low-cut of the dress and the tempting view of her full
breasts. He swallowed hard and it took everything in him not to take her deeper
into the park and have his way with her.
“What the
hell are you wearing?” His voice came out deep and husky.
She looked
down at herself, and realized that Damian had a lovely view straight down her
dress. She quickly squirmed out of his grasp and took a step back. “It’s called
a dress, and stop looking at me like that!”
“Hey, it’s
not my fault you look sexy as hell in that thing. It’s barely covering
anything!”
Layla was
grateful for the lack of light; that way Damian couldn’t see the bright blush
on her cheeks. His eyes were all over her, but she secretly enjoyed the
appreciation in them. It brought hot tingling sensations across her lower
abdomen, and erased any semblance of Gus Schwartz’s dark leering glare.
She shook
her head, trying to clear her lust-hazed thoughts and said slowly, “I asked you
what you were doing here.”
He pressed
a finger to her lips as a couple passed by and she stared at him with dark
eyes. After a moment, he looked down at her. Seemingly distracted, he grazed
her plump bottom lip with his thumb.
“I’m
undercover,” he whispered.
A slight
thrill ran up her spine and she looked around them into the dark night. “Are we
in danger?”
“If
Schwartz keeps staring at you like that he will be.”
“What do
you care if he stares at me?”
“I care. I
care a lot,” he said calmly but tightened his grip on her arms.
“You
didn’t care for a whole year, Damian. What does it matter now?”
“Stay away
from him, Layla, he’s not a good man.” He looked down at her once again, his
eyes intense and his jaw held tight. After a long moment, he stepped around her
preparing to leave.
“Wait!”
she whispered, grabbing his arm.
He looked
back at her, an eyebrow lifted, waiting.
She
quickly released his arm. “Does William know about this?”
He shook
his head. “No, and I prefer to keep it that way for now.”
“What? You
have to tell him. He’s about to do business with him!”
She now
had his full attention. “Are you sure?”
She
nodded. “They were just talking about it. William wants Skyline to manage the
technological advances at Sunset Reads. We’ve set up a meeting.”
“We’ve?”
he asked
“I’m the
Director, Damian. Who else is going to be his contact if not me?”
Damian
frowned. “I’ll talk with William, but you… I need you to remain as far away
from Schwartz as possible.”
She looked
behind her towards the party. “I had a feeling he couldn’t be trusted. Tell
me,” she turned back to Damian, “what did he do?”
Damian
shook his head, looking off into the distance as if in thought. “Nothing that
can be proven yet, but I have a feeling he’s connected to someone big. Someone
who can hurt William and Cristina.”
“Damian?”
He looked at
her. “Just do your job and forget I was here.” He quickly went back to the
party, leaving Layla alone.
“If you
only knew how hard that is,” she whispered in the empty space.
