The Devil Wore A Brown Suit novel Chapter 28

“How are they?” Camilla Dawn asks Key.

“They are fine hon, you need to rest.” Key replies. Key covers Camilla with a warm white blanket. “I will bring them in to see you after the nurse checks on them. No worries. Just rest.” Key gives Camilla Dawn a wink and quickly leaves the room.  

Key had not left Camilla Dawn’s side for the last six months. Daniel spared her life but forced her to be a servant to the chosen ones for her betrayal. He was feeling especially generous towards her since she was the only one who was able to keep Camilla Dawn from hiding the twins from him.

 He knew Key would not remain loyal to him, but he didn’t plan on keeping her alive too long. He only needed her to keep Camilla Dawn in check. It didn’t hurt she was an excellent midwife. 

Brooke left the compound shortly after Perdition escaped. No one knew exactly where she was. There was speculation that Damnation had her killed, but there was no proof. Camilla Dawn had a feeling she would be back, but she was too consumed with her own well being to concentrate much on where Brooke was. Camilla Dawn missed her friend. She was lucky to have Key with her. Key stayed with Camilla Dawn night and day.

 They both brainstormed about ways to get to Perdition and possibly get her back on their side. They both knew that as long as Chaos had her brainwashed with the mind stone, there was no use in even trying.

They had spent many nights contemplating blowing the compound to bits. They both knew there were too many innocent people at the compound to do such a thing.

 “Maybe we could just blow up the chosen one camp,” Camilla Dawn said to Key. She said this so many times it became a constant idea in both of their minds. 

Brooke had blocked both Camilla Dawn’s and Key’s thoughts from Damnation. Luckily they could free think even when he was close by. They were both scared if they tried anything, he would murder everyone and start over somewhere else. 

Daniel was devious. He has a huge following and an allotment of goons willing to do his bidding. It would be difficult to just get rid of him so easily.

Camilla Dawn knew she couldn’t hurt anyone. She had hurt enough people on her own. She couldn’t take it if she ever harmed another. Her time in the void had forced her to relive every single moment of her life that she regretted. Her biggest regret was the pain she caused Sam and her children. She knew she should’ve never gone back to New Orleans.

If she could only change that. If she would’ve left Sam and the children there to live out their lives instead, she got them caught up in something that would ultimately take their life. 

Camilla Dawn could not rest. All she could think about was the day she and Sam welcomed their two boys into the world. It was so cold that morning. Camilla woke up freezing. She told Sam she didn’t feel well and wondered if maybe she should call the doctor. Sam had been so overly protective of her, he insisted they go to the hospital.
