His Rejected Mate, His Greatest Regret The Night He Stayed Pt 1
The answer was simple enough that I found myself agreeing. We walked through the corridor together, talking about nothing important until we reached the staircase leading to our private quarters. I expected Damon to turn toward his own study, but instead he stopped beside me. “I should let you rest, as you’ve had a long day.”I nodded, then hesitated. “Are you going back to work?”“I have some reports to finish, but they can wait until morning.” Said Damon.“Then why not go to bed?” I asked.He studied me briefly. “I can, if that’s what you’re asking.”I felt a small, unexpected smile tug at my lips. “I’m not asking you to do anything; I was simply wondering.”“I understand.”I turned toward the stairs, but before taking the first step, I noticed the faint tension in his shoulders. “Damon, is something wrong?”He shook his head. “Nothing is wrong; I’m just trying to decide whether I should tell you somethin
His Rejected Mate, His Greatest Regret The Night He Stayed Pt 1
Damon was learning to carry his regret himself, and perhaps that was the first thing I needed from him: not another promise that he would win me back, but the patience to accept that I might never return to him as the woman I had once been. For the next few days, I continued with my responsibilities in Shadowfang, attending council meetings, reviewing patrol reports, and working with Caleb to improve the warriors’ training schedules. Damon remained consistent in his own way, as he consulted me when decisions affected my duties, respected my opinions when we disagreed, and never treated my willingness to share a meal or conversation as an invitation to demand more from me. I was beginning to appreciate the quiet difference, although I still reminded myself that consistency over a few days could not erase years of disappointment. On the evening everything changed, I had planned to finish reviewing the eastern patrol reports befor
His Rejected Mate, His Greatest Regret Damon’s Patience
Damon read through the schedule carefully before signing it. “This is well organized, and the overlap between the eastern and southern patrols should make it easier to respond if either team encounters trouble.”“That was the intention.” I said.He handed the document back to me. “I’ll have the guards informed before evening.”I took the schedule but remained beside the table. “Damon, can I ask you something?”“Of course.” Said Damon.“Are you avoiding me?” I asked.His expression changed slightly. “I’m trying to give you the space you asked for.”“I asked you not to pressure me, but I didn’t ask you to behave as though speaking to me outside work would be a mistake.” I said.He considered my words before answering. “I don’t want you to feel that every time we’re alone, I’m waiting for you to change your mind about us.”“I’m not asking you to wait for anything.” I said.“I know, but I also know
His Rejected Mate, His Greatest Regret I’m Still Hurt Pt 2
I pressed my lips together, trying to hold back the tears. I had expected him to defend himself, but he had done neither. “I need you to stop treating every good moment between us as evidence that we’re getting somewhere,” I said. “I laughed with you yesterday and almost kissed you last night. Those things happened, but they don’t mean I’m ready to start over.”“I won’t treat them as promises.” Said Damon.“And I don’t want you watching me constantly, trying to figure out whether I still have feelings for you.” I said.Damon nodded. “I’ll give you room to work through what you feel without making you responsible for my hopes.”I took a shaky breath. “I need to know that I can have a difficult day, be angry with you, or change my mind without you deciding that I’ve ruined whatever progress we’ve made.”“You haven’t ruined anything by being honest with me.” Said Damon.I studied him carefully. “And if I ask you to leave me alo
His Rejected Mate, His Greatest Regret I’m Still Hurt Pt 1
I had pulled away because I was still hurting, not because I felt nothing, and for the first time, I wondered whether the most difficult part of rebuilding my life would be learning how to live without loving Damon, or discovering what might happen if some part of me still did.I barely slept that night, as every time I closed my eyes, I remembered how Damon had stopped the moment I pulled away, lowering his hand without trying to hold me and allowing me to leave without asking for anything in return. I had wanted that kind of consideration for years, yet receiving it now left me with a painful question: why had it taken so much heartbreak for him to learn how to treat me?By morning, I decided that avoiding him would only make things more complicated, since I had responsibilities in Shadowfang and refused to let one almost kiss interfere with the work I had fought so hard to reclaim. When I entered the breakfast room, Damon was already there, reviewing a repo
His Rejected Mate, His Greatest Regret The First Almost Kiss Pt 2
“Sometimes I wonder whether you’re finally understanding what you did or whether you’re simply afraid of losing me now that I’ve stopped chasing you.” I said.Damon looked directly at me. “I can’t ask you to believe my reasons are good just because I’m telling you they are. All I can do is keep making different choices, even when you don’t trust me enough to believe they’ll last.”“And if I never do?”His jaw tightened slightly, but he answered without looking away. “Then I’ll have to accept that my actions came too late to change what you feel.”I looked down at my plate, uncomfortable with how much his answer affected me. I had spent so long preparing myself for his indifference that his patience sometimes left me unsure of what to do with my anger. I still had plenty of it, but I could no longer pretend that every moment between us was as bitter as the memories I carried.When dinner ended, Damon gathered the reports while I carried my cup toward the adjoining sitting room. I inten
