ValerieThey didn’t talk for days.
“This was going to be a wild ride…”
Or maybe it wasn’t going to be any ride at all. Damon had basically told Valerie that she was going to be staying in a room with him, like it or not, or that she was going to be somewhere close to him, in any case. And, not only that, he’d told her that she was going to have to be okay with it.
At the mere thought of it, her body had tensed up and she had felt goosebumps – the good kind – erupt all over her skin. But since then? Absolutely nothing. She still felt those same nerves up and down through her stomach when she thought of the way he looked at her. Since then, though, she’d been avoiding looking at him, and…
She shook her head.
Getting lost in her thoughts wasn’t going to be the way to deal with this. Besid
