The Voss's undoing
The last person Cassie Adams expects to see sitting across the boardroom table is the man she left behind.
Damian Voss.
The man she never forgot. The man who never forgave her.
Months ago, a broken heart sent Cassie running halfway across the world. Spain was supposed to be an escape a place to heal, reinvent herself, and forget the betrayal that shattered her life. Then she met Damian.
What was meant to be a fleeting summer romance became something neither of them saw coming. Something intense. Addictive. Impossible to walk away from.
Until Cassie did.
Without an explanation. Without a goodbye.
Now Damian is no longer the carefree man she fell for. He's cold where he once was warm, guarded where he once let her in, and determined to make her regret the heartbreak she left behind.
He's powerful, ruthless, and one of the most influential men.
Worse, her biggest career opportunity places her directly in his path, she discovers some mistakes never stay buried.
Avoiding him isn't an option.
Neither is ignoring the fire that still burns between them.

Chapter: Chapter 43- The Hurricane named SofiaMATTEva was watching me carefully."What" I try sounding nonchalant."You always waited and by the time you decide to speak..." her eyes seemed to dim a bit. "It's too late."I nod my head and smile bitterly.She rests her elbow on the pavement. "Do you know what scares me?"I look at her, she continues gently."I'm afraid one day not far from now, she's going to fall in love with someone else."I look away. "What if she already has." my voice dropped to a whisper."You know about Damian?" her expression softened."Just bits and pieces." I mutter lightly. "The guy she was with in Ibiza, that's him right?"She just nods slightly. "She doesn't talk about him much.""She doesn't have to." I smile sadly. "I've known Cassie since we were teenagers." Silence settled between us.After a long moment, Eva reached over and squeezed my shoulder."If you love her, just tell her. Even if she doesn't choose you. At least let her know how you've always felt for her." her voice dropped to a whisper

Chapter: Chapter 42- A Step Too LateEVARain tapped softly against the windows of the Luther Medical Center. The neurosurgery floor was unusually quiet for a Friday afternoon, compared to how busy Matt always was during the weekends."He's in his office." Emily told me with a smile. At this point almost every staff in the hospital knew Cassie and I.I give a little laugh, "Thank you." I reply.Matt had just finished reviewing a patient's scan, when I snuck into his office but then decided to stay by the doorway."I was beginning to think you actually lived here." My voice startled him.He looked up from what he was doing and smile at me as I raise the two coffees in my hands."Visiting hours don't apply to you anymore, do they?" he shakes his head."They never did." I walk in and place one coffee on his desk. "I figured you hadn't eaten.He glanced at the untouched sandwich sitting beside a stack of patient files. "You know me too well.""I know you're hopeless." we both laugh at that, as I produce the burger I got for

Chapter: Chapter 41- A Drunken MistakeThe event had long come to an end and the decoration team had taken out almost everything. The soft hues of dusk left the sky making way for the twilight as I just stood outside the hospital entrance, reminiscing about the event.Our team had wandered into the city to explore before dinner."The event is over. Don't you think?"I turned at the sound of that familiar voice. Damian stood a few steps away, one hand tucked into the pocket of the coat he was wearing."I didn't know you were still here." I exhale heavily, a bit startled by his voice."I had a brief meeting." he deadpanned."Shouldn't you be out there exploring the city with your team." he looked genuinely puzzled."I should and I would. I'm just trying to take everything in. What you established here is massive, it's renewed hope for a lot of people. I think this particular event is going to stick with me for a very long time." I exhale loudly.He just smiles and nods slightly. "Yeah me too."We stay in comfortable silence

Chapter: Chapter 40- MamaThe warmth in my expression disappeared immediately."I had a feeling. He called you?" I utter gently even though I already knew."He did. Did he call you too?" she says carefully.I nod my head."He wants me in Milan, for the foundation gala." my frown deepens.She sighs softly. "Of course he does.""He needs photographs." I continue."Damian...""He just needs a show off to the press." my mood turns sour.My mum stays quiet for a moment, then spoke gently."I won't defend him." she adds softly."I know.""But..."She hesitates, then takes my hands into hers."If you decide not to go, make that decision because it's right for you, not because you are angry." she pats my shoulders lightly and smiles softly."I stopped making decisions out of anger years ago." I pointed out in an easy tone."Then why don't you go?" she adds lightly.The man wasn't to be trusted, he could never change, there were a lot of reasons I could give. But most importantly, one of the main reasons..."Because ev

Chapter: Chapter 39- The Medical Center"Damian, hey." I say, mustering a shaky smile."What are you doing here?" he dips his hands into his pocket, eyeing me suspiciously. "Aren't you supposed to be at the new medical center?""We were all there not long ago but uhm," I try clearing my throat calmly. "We called it a day and I decided to check out the old medical center to see how it was, you know, just check how things are here." I say frantically.He just smiles."So what do you think?" his gaze is so intent on me."Huh""About the center." "Oh! Uhm, I don't know I just got here." I say more to myself. Also I followed you around so I haven't really checked out the place or how everyone is, just saw how you treat everyone here and how they treat you too, I think to myself."Well, I don't think you can check the place out from the position you are in." he gestures to my hiding spot and I flush instantly."Right." I smile lightly as I step out of my hiding position. This was so embarrassing, I just really hope he doesn't se
