Suddenly, I got an email. I opened it to find a link on social media. Someone downstairs had already posted the video of Damian shoving Jack up against the wall, and then dragging him out. Another clip showed him kissing me passionately in the lobby. I sat there with my heart pounding.

Fuck.

The longer I sat there, the more emails came trickling in, until finally one came through from his PR team.

Call me immediately.We need to set a plan in motion.

It was addressed to Damian,and I was CC: ed.

Shit, shit, shit.

I’m going to get fired, lose my job, my income, and my dignity. I got up and hesitantly knocked on Damian’s door.

“Come in.” He was sitting behind his desk, looking completely unflustered, as if a giant PR crisis wasn’t looming over our heads.

“Did you see Cheryl's email?” I prodded, fidgeting. He looked so incredibly handsome, and I could hardly focus on anything but the throbbing, pulsing desire in my center.

“Mhmmm.” He didn’t look up.

“I think we should call her. Like right now.”

“Conference her in.”

I walked over to his phone and dialed Cheryl's number, putting it on speaker.

“Hi Cheryl, it’s Addison and Damian.”

“Well, you two have started a shit storm. Particularly you, Damian.”

“What can I say?”

“You can start by notifying me when you get engaged, so we can put out a press release. And you can finish by not throwing who I assume is one of her exes out on his ass.”

“Well, it just happened, Cheryl.” Damian said coldly.

“Damian, I've got multiple news outlets ready to run a story. This is the most exciting news they’ve had about you this year.”

Damian groaned. “What do you need from me?”

“I need to know what’s going on, so I can figure out how to spin this, for starters.”

I chimed in, “You’re right, that was my ex that has been following me and harassing me at work.”

“Do you have a restraining order?”

“No.”

“Get one filed ASAP, and so we have a reason that Damian got physical with him, that you were in danger.”

“I really don’t need a restraining order against him.”

“Done.” Damian stated evenly.

“Good.” Cheryl seemed pleased. “As for the engagement, I guess I should say congratulations.”

I looked at Damian.

“Thank very much Cheryl, we’re very happy.” He said with a smirk.
