Sienna had always been able to keep her emotions in check, always keeping a calm demeanor, always being the one in control. But when she met Damian Laurent, everything changed. At first, it was intoxicating—the way he looked at her, the way he held her, the way he made her feel like she was the only one in the world. Their chemistry was undeniable, and the physical attraction was undeniable too. They became tangled up in each other’s sheets, letting passion take over as they indulged in a dangerous, yet irresistible, fling.

But everything changed the day Sienna found the wedding photo.

That single image shattered the illusion that Damian was just a man who lived for the moment.

At around 8 PM, Sienna sighed quietly, her fingers tracing idle patterns on her lap. The hill had grown quieter, and the once-bustling city below was now a canvas of glowing lights and distant movement. She turned her head slightly to look at Damian, who was leaning against the hood of the car, eyes on the skyline but clearly somewhere else in thought. 


"We should head back," she murmured, her voice soft but resolute. 


Damian nodded without hesitation. "Yeah... you're right. It’s getting late."
