Damien's Destiny
“He forced a friendly brother attitude he was far from feeling. Of course he felt friendly but not exactly like a brother. After a day of seeing her eyes upon him whenever she thought he wasn’t looking, he casually suggested an early ride the next morning.

Before he could determine what to say she called back.
