188 Chapter 188

Damien’s POV

I took the long route to my office.

Past the conference rooms. Through the executive lounge. Down the hallway that added an extra three minutes to my commute but

kept me far away from Emma’s desk.

But I couldn’t face her. Not after last night. Not after the things she’d said.

My office door closed behind me with a soft click. Finally. Alone.

I rubbed my temples, a headache already forming behind my eyes.

*She deserved it,* Alex growled in my head. *She insulted our mate.*

A knock on the door made me look up.

The door opened, and Lucas stuck his head in. “You got a minute?”

Relief flooded through me. “Yeah. Come in.”

He stepped inside, closing the door behind him. His expression was serious. Business mode.
