The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 110

Book 2 Chapter 33

~DAMON~

I couldn’t resist telling her the truth. I couldn’t resist giving her what she wanted to hear for once. I knew it wouldn’t change a single thing between us, and I was aware that it might only make things worse. However, I couldn’t say no to her today, not after almost losing her.

My heart still raced from seeing her surrounded by those flames. I was terrified of losing Clarissa. I always knew there was a great chance that she was my weakness, but now I was one hundred percent sure that she was. No one terrified me the way that she did. I’ve never wanted to protect anyone the way I’ve always wanted to protect her.

I would never be able to live with myself if anything ever happened to her. It bothers me that something terrible could have happened to her today, and I wouldn’t have known anything until it was too late.

If Autumn hadn’t gone into her room before the engagement ceremony, I could have lost her, and I would have never been able to forgive myself. I couldn’t let something like that happen again.

I knew I was the one to push her into doing something so careless. I was the one that hurt her feelings and made her act out. I couldn’t make that mistake again. I had to be very careful with my words and actions around Clarissa.

I had to protect her from everything, including herself. I knew now that I also had to protect her from my selfish actions. I knew it would cause me more trouble in the future, but from now on, I had to pay closer attention to her. I had to ensure she wasn’t plotting anything dangerous that could harm her. From now on, I will keep a close watch on her. Nothing and no one would stop me from doing what I had to in order to keep her safe.

I would do f*****g anything for Clarissa. Anything. Anything except what she was asking from me. That was the only thing I couldn’t give to her. Everything else I would go to the end of the earth to get for her.

“Damon?” Anya calls once more. Clarissa slowly lets go of my arm, and I turn towards Dante.
