Chapter 81

I was missing my husband a little more than I thought I would. Having him here in Paris the last few weeks had made me somewhat codependent but I wasn’t mad at it. Our relationship had been on the rocks for so long that this calm in our ocean was a welcome change of pace.

“Okay and cut,” I yelled as Gabriel finished his scene.

Lucas had to rush back to Vegas for an emergency and Jenna was no longer coming on the trip because she had this huge opportunity in New York that she couldn’t pass up. I hated that they weren’t here. I had been counting on them to help distract me from my loneliness and not only that but to also keep Gabriel away from me.

I had been trying my best to avoid him like the plague after his little confession that day. I don’t want to say that it ruined things between us-but it did.

I was struggling to come to be around him without thinking about what he said and the fact that I was still keeping it from my husband.

I had meant to tell him but then we had reconciled and then Paris happened. Why would I ruin a good thing for us?

At the time it had been a good idea but now as time dragged on and I was around this man more, I felt like I was being bad. I was by no means cheating on the love of my life. But Damon didn’t know about Gabriel’s confession.

“I’ll see you guys tomorrow,” I said to my assistant as I headed to my trailer.

I had left my phone in my trailer and if I knew my husband, which I did. I knew that he had been blowing up my phone and wondering where I was. It was early evening here which meant that it was morning time for him.

I was almost to my trailer when I felt a presence behind me. I whirled around, only to come face to face with the one man I did not want to be around

“Gabriel,” I shifted my weight, waiting for him to say something.

“Can we talk?”

Immediately alarm bells rang in my head.
