All Chapters of Flames of desire. : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Claire's POVThe car is packed, and I took a lot of the new clothes Damon bought me. I do not want to look like a tramp in this city. I know that we are going to meet a lot of his friends and associates in the city. I do not want him to feel ashamed of his wife. It is so weird for me to think of myself as Damon's wife. However, he arranged everything, and I am getting a new identity because my surname is going to change to Winters. I know Damon will never let his child carry my surname, and I want to have the same surname as my child. I am also not thinking of running away anymore. I know it is not going to help me. Damon will never allow me to run away with his child. He has more power than I. Although I am a lawyer, I know I cannot fight him in court. Even if I do, he will have advocates and other people representing him. "I was thinking while I'm pregnant. I want to continue my studies. I know I can do some of it online, but I will have to come to the city often. Do you think it w

Damon's POVWell, so much for me being a romantic last night. Tonight I am going to take Claire out for dinner in one of the fanciest restaurants we can get. First, I want us to go and do shopping. I also have to see some clients today, and I'm taking Clair with me. I only have to see them for lunch. We have enough time to go shopping. I don't want to only shop for Claire and me. I also want us to shop for the baby. Since the two of us did not have any children, we have nothing for a baby. I want to buy a big house in Willows Creek, but I have decided to build it in town. I know Claire will feel much safer in town. "Come on, Lazy Bones, get up. Here is some coffee for you, and I made you some breakfast. Yes, I can cook. Don't look at me as if I am crazy. The doctor did give you something for the nausea. Get up, take your pills, and come eat. I wanted to bring it to you in bed, but I was afraid that it might make you more serious because she has not taken your pills yet. See, I can be

Claire's POVWe walk into a very exclusive restaurant. I have never been in a place like this before. We are going to wait for Damon's clients to arrive. We are done earlier than we thought. I was lucky to get the perfect dress so quickly. We might as well wait for them because my feet are killing me from all the walking we did. Damon does not want me to walk any further, although I would love to see more of the city. I am really enjoying the shopping. After we went to the boutique, we also went to another boutique that sells jewelry and other things. He bought me so much jewelry, I don't know when I'm going to wear all of it. However, today I am not going to complain and tell him that I want to look after myself. I deserve to be a little spoiled. After all, I didn't win the first court case against Mike. "Damon, baby, I am so glad to see you again. Oh, you have company?" A woman in a white dress says, while we are still drinking our juice. "Hello Stephanie and please do not call me

Claire's POVI do not know what Damon is planning with that woman. I am just glad that I can feel safe in the city again. I was really enjoying my time here until we ran into her. I wonder what is going on in Willows Creek. We have a wedding to plan, and we only have a few days. I know Damon can do anything from the city, but I would like to see the venue for myself. I don't want him to go overboard. I don't want a fairy tale wedding. I am too much of a plain person for that. I want a classy wedding. I have always dreamed about a wedding where I can feel like a princess marrying her prince. Is Damon my Prince? I believe so. I have never felt about anybody the way I feel about him. However, he can also be full of shit. If Damon wants something done, he normally goes overboard, and that is what is worrying me about this wedding. Tonight I don't feel like going out. We are just going to order something to eat in our room."You do not have anything to worry about. That woman is gone. Why

Melanie's POVSienna and her grandfather are in his office, always whispering but not telling me what the hell is going on. I can feel that something is wrong. Not even Mike wants to talk to me. It is like they are keeping a secret. I wonder what they are hiding from me. There is a knock on the door, and I answer it. I look at the black envelope that the messenger hands over to me. It is an invitation to a wedding. Who the hell is getting married in this town? Curiosity gets the best of me. I opened the envelope slowly so that I would not tear it. I can always close it again and pretend that I have not seen what is in the envelope."Claire Johnson and Damon Winters request the honor of your presence at the celebration of their marriage, on this coming Saturday at Four O’Clock in the Afternoon at The Saints Captel, Willows Creek. It will be followed by a reception at the town hall after the ceremony." I read the invitation again. This cannot be. I will not allow this to happen. So thi
