Chapter 40: Thoughtful Friends

"What?"
I had my hands in the middle of Damon's fiery red hair, I could no longer stand on my own, I had to rely on Damon's strength, my entire body was in his grasp.
"Every inch of your body holds a deadly attraction, as beautiful and addictive as a poppy, you are deadly poison, and I sink for you like this."
The corners of Damon's mouth kept swimming around my ears, and every word he said carried the magic of compulsion.
Soon, the two of us were sinking into a world of lust.
"Little fox, little fox, do you know, you have planted a seed in my heart, do you think he will eventually grow into a big tree?"
Tossed by Damon for a few hours, I even opened my eyes mirror are not the strength, lying on the bed listening to Damon seemed to be talking to himself, the brain thought for half a day did not understand what he wanted to express.
"Damon, the contract."
In the last vestiges of my sanity, there was still a remnant of the most important purpose of the day.
"Fuck the contract, we don't need a contract."
I seemed to hear Damon's curses, and then Damon, who had just rested, opened up a whole new round of attacks.
By the time I was completely refreshed from my sleep, it was 10:00 a.m. the next morning, and I don't even remember what ended up happening yesterday.
I only remember Damon said a lot of words I couldn't understand, he was too brave and different from anything before.
I touched the mask on my face, the cold touch, and the cold touch on my chest all told me that what happened yesterday did happen, and that it was not a dream I had, only that Damon was long gone from the apartment.
I found a nightgown and put it on casually, and walked to the table, it was breakfast that had already been prepared.
The breakfast was still steak and a fried egg in the shape of a heart, with a simple smiley face drawn on a slice of bread.
Next to the breakfast there was a note with a message in a very handsome font, very much in keeping with Damon's temperament.
"Eat your breakfast before you go to class."
When I read the note, I remembered with a start that I still had school classes today.
"Oh, damn, I've overindulged myself!"
Cursing to myself, I had almost forgotten about today's classes.
Just as I was looking around for my clothes in a panic, I suddenly remembered a problem.
How did Damon know about my classes?
While lifting my shoes, I dialed Jenny's phone and hissed at the highest decibel.
"Jenny, how did Damon know I had class today!"
I didn't even bother with Jenny and just threw out my query.
"Well, Damon called me last night and he asked me a lot of questions about you, including the course content."
Jenny's voice got lower and lower as she spoke, and finally I could barely hear her.
"Jenny, my God, don't say you told him everything!"
If Jenny had told Damon everything, then Damon must have known who I was.
This made me so devastated that now I was wearing this mask as if it were a joke.
"Ahem, didn't tell him everything, ah, Alexander called me, bye!"
"Jenny--!"
Without waiting for my miserable scream to end, Jenny hung up the phone.
This damned woman betrayed me in front of the male sex.
The fear of having my identity exposed led to the fact that today's class ended almost entirely in thinking about how to question Damon.
Just after class, I received a phone call from Tom.
"Selena, I introduced you to a new boss, and you forget your old boss?"
Just after the call was answered, Tom's voice shot straight to the clouds.
"You promised to give me five days off."
I glanced at the calendar, it was only the fifth day, and answered Tom with a stronger tone.
"Then I didn't tell you to quit either!"
"What resignation, I didn't say I was going to resign!"
I was shocked by the news Tom brought.
"Damon called me on your cell phone last night to tell me you were going to resign."
The news Tom brought was so powerful that I unconsciously opened my mouth, almost to the point of dislocation in surprise.
"I'm not quitting, but I want to take a long vacation, I need to attend Sophie's wedding and my parents want me to come home for two weeks"
"I'm indulging you like this because you're the hottest girl in the business!"
Tom sounded very stern, but of course I knew he was joking with me. I knew Tom always liked to scare me with that tone of voice.
"When you come back, you'll work twice as hard and earn back all my losses for the past three weeks!"
Sure enough Tom still had such a soft heart, and although his tone was impatient, I knew he cared for me.
"Tom, I love you the most, you'll always be my best brother."
I spun happily with the phone in my hand and pouted at Tom on the phone.
"Who are you talking to so happily."
I was startled by the sudden voice and the phone slipped from my hand.
"Little foxes are so timid, not when they're in bed."
Damon reached out to catch my phone and reached up to scrape the tip of my nose.
I hastily reached out and covered my face, then as if I remembered something, I dropped my hands and looked very helplessly at Damon who had a smiling face.
"What, whose bed, hello, anyone tell me what's going on?"
Damn the phone did not hang up, just now Damon said all those words were heard by Tom!
"Nothing!" I grabbed the phone from Damon's hand and casually dealt with Tom hanging up.
I was surprised by Damon's sudden appearance at school, but more than that, I was angry.
That, and the fact that he'd helped me quit without my permission.
With my hands in my pockets and my mouth tightly shut, I ignored Damon and walked straight towards my car.
"What, are you angry?"
Damon's legs were long, and although I sped up my walk, he caught up to me in two or three steps.
I ignored Damon and shifted the other direction, faster, where the direction of the woods, few people would pass.
Damon probably sensed my thoughts and followed me silently without saying a word.
"Why help me quit."
When I reached the depths of the woods, I stopped abruptly and turned my head to yell at Damon.
Damon didn't anticipate my sudden turn and collided directly with me, and he very naturally took me into his arms, as he does every night after a passionate hug.
"Because I don't want other men to see your sexy body."
My face was buried in his chest, and I heard his voice floating out above me, still low and magnetic, each word still full of temptation for me.
"Little fox, I told you I want to possess you, and now that we've come to an agreement, I don't want you to continue working in the nightclub."
