Isabella was torn, her mind racing with Damian’s cryptic offer. As she clutched the notebook, she sensed that the stakes had just escalated. Her thoughts were interrupted by a sudden, loud noise outside the library.
Damian's voice cut through the darkness, his tone sharp and commanding. “You shouldn’t be here. Go home before it’s too late.”
Isabella turned, startled to see Damian’s silhouette framed by the doorway. He stepped into the library, his presence radiating authority and menace. His gaze swept over her, a mixture of disdain and something else she couldn’t quite place.
“Why are you still here?” Damian's voice was laced with impatience. “You’re meddling in things that are beyond your understanding.”
Despite his harsh words, Isabella noticed that he made no move to actually drive her away. His actions spoke of a guarded concern, hidden beneath his cold demeanor.
“I need answers,” Isabella said, her voice steady. “And I’m not backing down.”
Damian’s eyes narrowed, and he let out a frustrated sigh. “You’re playing a dangerous game. If you get hurt, don’t say I didn’t warn you.”
With that, Damian turned and walked away, leaving Isabella alone with the notebook and the growing realization that there was more to Damian’s involvement than met the eye. She felt a mixture of frustration and curiosity, knowing that despite his outward rudeness, there was an underlying complexity to his actions.
