Selfish Romance
After the meeting, Damien approached her near the elevator.
"You're welcome," he said in a straightforward manner.
"You got me into that room,"
she said, trying to mask her surprise.
"I simply opened the door. You kept it open," he replied.
There was a pause in the conversation.
"You're being unusually kind for someone who kissed me in public and then disappeared," she said, a mix of hurt and curiosity shading her words.
His expression remained unchanged.
"We shared a contract, not a romance."
Her chest tightened at his words.
"Right. Of course," she said, her voice barely hiding the sting of his words.
