Seeing the bright sparkle in Mason’s eyes, Nyla’s heart softened, and she nodded. “Alright.

“Thanks, Mommy!” Mason cheered and clapped his hands with joy, his face lighting up. 

After playing a bit longer, Lydia arrived to take Mason for his bath and bed. 

Nyla stood to leave, but Damon reached over and pulled her back into his arms. 

“Nyla, now that Buddy’s off to bed, don’t you think we should have a little time to ourselves?” His voice was a deep, husky murmur, laced with temptation. 

Nyla nudged him away, frowning. “This is the living room. People could walk in at any time -be mindful.” 

As soon as the words left her mouth, Damon lifted her into his arms and carried her to the study. 

“What are you doing?! You scared me!” Nyla gasped, giving him a light punch in the chest. 

“You said the living room wasn’t a good spot. So, let’s go to the study,” Damon replied matter–of–factly. 

One hour later… 

They emerged from the study. 

Nyla walked ahead, her face flushed, her expression tinged with embarrassed irritation. Behind her, Damon wore a satisfied smile. 

When they reached the stairs and Nyla saw that Damon was still following her, she turned and gave him an exasperated look. “Why are you still here?” 

Thinking back on what had just happened in the study, she felt her cheeks burn all over again. Damon had been shamelessly over the top. 

Damon looked at her, a hint of longing in his eyes. “Nyla, it’s been a while since we’ve been back together. When can I stay in your room with you?”

Damon noted her reddened ears with delight. Maybe it really was time to plan a proposal. Even though they hadn’t been back together for long, he could hardly wait to make her his

As he walked to his room, pondering how to propose, his phone rang. It was Brandon. 

“Uncle Damon, is Aunt Nyla with you? I called her a few times, but she didn’t answer…” Brandon’s voice was tinged with worry. 

Hearing the concern in Brandon’s tone, Damon frowned slightly. “What’s going on?” 

“It’s Valarie… Something happened to her…” Brandon replied. 

Nyla and Damon arrived at the hospital just before midnight. 

Brandon was standing outside the hospital room, his face pale. When he saw Nyla, his despondent gaze brightened, and he rushed over. 

“Aunt Nyla, Valarie’s in there… She’s really shaken up and won’t see anyone. But if it’s you, she might be willing,” he said, his voice raw and barely steady, his face shadowed with 

worry. 

On the way over, Nyla had already heard the story from Damon. 

Valarie had gone to break off her engagement with Zayn, but he had tried to drug and film her to blackmail her. If Valarie hadn’t fought back and managed to injure him, things could
