“Can I talk to Eloise, please, in private?” she gritted out through her teeth, and I just shook my head, turning to look at Lex, who was already detangling herself from the situation.
“I’ll catch you later,” I told her, and she nodded.
“Sure“” she said, and walked away. I knew she was going to her room because she didn’t exactly relate with people around here.
I’ll find her later.
“Summer, I’m only going to say this once. We both know we don’t like each other, and you show that all the time, and we are not sisters. So, let’s keep the energy we keep in private in public, too. Don’t try to come here and act like we’re okay, on good terms. Is that clear?” I said in an icy voice.
“Whatever, Eloise,” she said with a roll of her eyes, and I knew that was all I was going to get from her in this situation.
“What do you want?” I asked, folding my arms together.
“My father called,” she said, her eyes narrowed. “He wants you home tonight. We need to discuss your contract and the fact that you still have 30% shares in the company. You won’t refuse his summons now, would you? You know he has leverage over you,” she said with a wicked smile.
That’s what I want them to think, I really don’t give a fuck about whatever they think I feel right now.
“The contract? Is that all you have left to threaten me with now? Please tell your father that I’ll be there tomorrow. I have things to do tonight.”
“You think you’re so special because you won a game?” Summer said, stepping closer to me. “You’re still just trash, Eloise. I saw how hard you were trying to explain to the crowd the other time that you aren’t a rogue, but they don’t even have to think about it; the way you look says it all, so save yourself the stress next time.”
I let out a laugh.
“Yes, yes. Maybe,” I whispered, also leaning into her space the way she did mine until she flinched. “But, I’m the trash and rogue that survived you. I beat you in the contest, and it’s so obvious that you’re jealous with all the green you have all over your face. Your day of reckoning is coming, Summer, Sleep with one eye open.”
I walked back up to my room, and the anger I used to feel towards Summer after talking to her wasn’t even there anymore. She didn’t deserve all that energy for me, but she sure would get what she had coming for her.
The moment I entered my room, my phone pinged, and I turned it on to see who it was this time; it better not be the Elder calling us out for another meeting. It was Damon.
My heart skipped a beat immediately, and everything I was thinking vanished. My mind literally went blank, and my heart started beating so fast I thought it was going to leave my chest.
DAMON: Come outside.
The message said. “Simple, but dangerous.

What was he doing here? Or maybe he wasn’t, and I was just thinking too much into it.
ELOISE: Why?

i texted back and sat down on my bed, waiting for a reply. I wasn’t sure my legs could hold me up for much longer. I looked at my hand, trying to stretch it out while waiting for his text to come in. I was distracting myself, and I was well aware of this.
DAMON: Dont ask questions, just come out, ma.
There he goes with that same nickname again. I didn’t understand the reason he was calling me that. Sometimes he’d say ma, or mama. I had decided to ignore it, but anytime he said it, it made me feel all mushy inside.
I started typing again, wanting to know exactly the reason he wanted me to come outside, but halfway through it. I stopped.
I’ll just go; I didn’t have the strength to hold all this tension in..
I went to check myself in the mirror, not like I was trying to look good for him or anything.
Fuck, I looked like a mess. A big one; my hands were both bandaged, and I was just wearing plain tees. I quickly went through my duffel bag and fished out an oversized sweatshirt that would hide the bandages.
I tried to adjust my hair as much as I could, too, and then I locked my phone and went out. The whole journey down to the lobby was filled with asking myself different questions about what was waiting for me outside..
I finally walked outside the hotel into the cold night air.
A sleek, black Benz was idling in front of the hotel. The window rolled down, revealing the face that had been ravishing me in my dreams, and I could feel it coming. Oh no, I know I wasn’t about to blush in front of him.
“I was about to come up to find you myself,” he said with a slight smirk in that sexy fucking voice.
looked everywhere but at him, and I noticed about six different black cars behind and in front of him, and I rolled my eyes.
“Is this necessary?” 1 asked, looking towards the car.
“I’m an important man, ma. So they don’t allow me to go anywhere without security,” he said.
