CHAPTER 3 THE HANGOVER

Isabella woke up with a pounding headache, her memory hazy from the night before. As she groggily stumbled towards the window, a loud car horn startled her, causing her to rush to see what was going on.

To her surprise, there, parked in all its glory, was a sleek black Benz limousine. And who else could be sitting inside, but Damien himself, wearing a mischievous smile. He had brought breakfast and, to her amazement, more wine.

Isabella couldn't help but feel a mix of confusion and excitement. "Damien, what's all this?" she asked, her voice filled with curiosity as she opened the door of the limousine.

Damien's smile turned into a mischievous grin. "Well, my dear Isabella, after a night of dancing and laughter, you may have had a bit too much to drink. Don't worry, though. I made sure you got home safely."

Isabella's cheeks flushed with embarrassment, but she appreciated Damien's concern. "I'm glad you were there to take care of me," she admitted, her voice filled with sincerity.

They spent the morning talking and laughing, enjoying each other's company as they indulged in the delicious breakfast spread. Isabella couldn't help but feel a growing connection with Damien, a sense of comfort and understanding.

As they finished their meal, Damien leaned in closer, his voice filled with a hint of excitement. "Isabella, I had an incredible time with you last night
