Damien Taylor walked out of the bathroom, towel over his shoulder, body still damp. Just a

towel hanging low on his hips, water drops tracing the lines of his lean muscles. That toned,

long–legged look of his–just unfairly attractive.

Amelia Johnson stared, caught off guard, her throat suddenly dry.

She quickly turned her head, licked her lips awkwardly, and ruffled her hair. “Morning.”

Damien was a little surprised she was already up. “Morning. Did I wake you?”

To Damien, Amelia was just mesmerizing. The soft morning light hit her face just right,

highlighting her flawless skin and glossy pink lips. She looked like she stepped out of a

painting.

“I thought you’d left already,” she murmured, head down, totally unaware of how absolutely

stunning she looked right now.

Out of nowhere, Damien tossed a towel over her shoulders–it smelled like him and body

wash–then grabbed some clothes and ducked back into the bathroom.

What nobody knew was, every time Damien spent the night with Amelia, the first thing he did

in the morning was take a cold shower. Sharing a bed with her tested every piece of his

self–control.

He was, after all, a perfectly healthy guy. Desire? Totally normal. But he always put her

comfort first, no matter what.

-Friendship gala day-

Sabrina Johnson was dressed to impress by Grace Williams, practically draped in every

flashy piece of jewelry they owned. She looked less like she was dressed up and more like a

glittering Christmas tree.

They invited Amelia along, pretending to be friendly.

Amelia was slightly surprised, but she saw right through their act.

Sabrina pulled out a dress. “Hey sis, you should wear this one. Mom and I picked

for you.”

Amelia smiled and took it, not showing a hint of doubt even though it was pretty basic.

“Thanks, that’s really sweet. I’ll go change now.”

This time, Sabrina insisted on watching her put it on, even helped her into it just to make sure

everything went as planned. She wasn’t about to make the same mistake again.

As they stepped out of the house, Amelia noticed a stretch Lincoln waiting at the curb. Wow. They went all out this time. Clearly, making a grand entrance mattered to Grace and Sabrina-

enough to rent a limo.

Just as Amelia was about to get in, Grace gently stopped her. “Sweetie, I’m really sorry. This isn’t our car–we’re just borrowing it from a friend, and Sabrina still has to pick up a few more

people. There’s no room left. Can you just take the BMW?”

Amelia saw right through them. Classic move–ditch her on purpose. But she didn’t mind. She calmly slid into the BMW and said, “Alright, I’ll head over first then.”

As the BMW drove off, Sabrina smirked. “If she’s that eager, let her go. She doesn’t even have

an invite anyway. She’s gonna embarrass herself real quick.”

Grace checked the time. “Quick, go pick up Chloe Hughes and Zoey Mitchell.“After Sabrina picked up Chloe and Zoey, there was only half an hour left before the party started. She was getting a bit anxious–what if they missed Amelia’s “embarrassing moment“?

So, she casually spilled the beans to Chloe and Zoey, pretending it just slipped out. The two instantly perked up, even looking like they were ready to settle a score, and urged the driver to

speed up.

The driver looked helpless. “It’s peak traffic–running red lights could get us fined. It’s also

super risky.”

Fueled by their dislike for Amelia, Zoey and Chloe pulled out their wallets without hesitation. “Just go. Whatever happens, we’ll take full responsibility.”

Sabrina smirked to herself and quietly fastened her seatbelt.

The driver ended up blasting through several red lights, but when they arrived, Ame
