"Why aren't you answering my calls?" Damian asked once I got inside the car and closed the door behind.

After I had gotten out of class and had humiliated Sophia, Damian had returned and was waiting for me by the school.

But I don't answer him as he drives off from the high school, we sit in silence, not talking to each other.

He drove for a few minutes as we reached the gated community, and he parked the car in the driveway.

The moment he turns off the car, I try to open the door, but Damian has locked the car door.

"What are you doing?" I questioned, not staring at him and looking instead at the garage.

"We need to talk, or else you will be angry at me. You might even run away because that's what you do in hard situations," Damian explains, not unlocking the doors.

"What are you getting at?" I cross my arms over my chest.

"I don't want to lose you, Elliott. I can't stand the mere thought of losing you." Damian confesses, resting his hand on my thigh because it has become his habit.

"What about Mia?" I forced myself to ask.

"What about her?" Damian narrows his eyes, he looks confused.

"She's obsessed with you, she ran up to you and kissed you! She disrespects you." I cross my arms over my chest, feeling pissed.

"How many times will this happen to you? How many girls will come up and kiss you?" I questioned, feeling angry and jealous.

Damian remains silent, but not for long. "I don't give a fuck about Mia. I did sleep around with her for a few months, but I made it clear that I don't want a relationship with her."

"Then why do I always have to feel jealous and angry?" I managed to say, my throat feels tight from holding back my frustration.

Mia basically harassed Damian in broad daylight, but nobody cares, he doesn't even seem to care.

"Why do you make me feel like I could never measure up?"

"Is that how you feel?" Damian asks, his gaze remains on me.

"Yes, that's how I feel. I feel jealous since Mia never seems to go away, and I feel angry that she harassed you!" I told him before biting into my lower lip.

I can see Damian's gaze darken at my words. "I don't love Mia. I have never felt anything for her, she's not my mate or the person that I want to spend the rest of my life with! Yes, I slept with her, but that means nothing to me."

"Do you regret sleeping with her?"

"Yes, I regret sleeping with her, I regret sleeping with any girl before you." Damian says this a second time.

"Do you think this can work between us?" I asked, not that I could let go of him since we were mates.

Damian looked terrified since he thought I wanted to break things off between us. "We can make it work, Elliott. We will make it work."

Before I know it, his hand is reaching out, his fingertips brushing gently against my cheek. His touch is so soft, almost hesitant, and it sends a shiver down my spine.

I can feel my heartbeat picking up, each pulse echoing in the quiet car.

His thumb moves slowly, tracing the line of my cheekbone, and the tenderness in his touch makes my heart flutter even more.
