The next evening, Aya had managed to find a very elegant black strapless empress style evening gown for her. It was light enough to keep her cool on a hot evening. She had to pick up the hem to walk because it trailed behind her somewhat. Aya gave her a silver sheer wrap to wear with it. It matched the flower beadwork throughout the material. Regardless of the night before, she was impressed with Aya’s choice. “Aya I think you’ve redeemed yourself.” She smiled looking down at herself.“I’m saved!” She teased raising her hands to the sky. Aya wore a white three quarter length strapless number that definitely showed her best attributes.Liya thought she was stunning.Again Aya pinned Liya’s mass of ebony curls on top of her head to show her elegant neckline.However several hours later Liya’s confidence quickly faded when they entered the Oregon Museum of Contemporary Art, she was overwhelmed by the famous faces present

Damon walked into his house several hours after the art auction ended and by the look of Nathan’s expression he’d been pacing in worry for that long. He smiled arrogantly at his protector’s scowl.“It’s not funny Damon!” Nathan seethed. ”You can’t keep taking off after her alone!”Damon pursed his lips to prevent his smile from spreading and raised his hand in surrender, “All right, point taken….put someone on her.”Nathan shook his head in anger, not feeling as amused as Damon was, “I’ll put Jules on her now, but you know that’s not what this is about! I’m not done with you.” He snarled out the last bit as he pulled out his cell phone and shoved his other hand into his pants pocket in frustration while his searing eyes remained on Damon’.Damon remitted the smile and went to his study. He sat down and proceeded to sign papers that Nathan had left for him. About ten minutes later Nathan came in unannounced. He could t

THAT following night Damon was seated in his study at his desk supposedly working. However, couldn’t concentrate on business that night or for the last week for that matter. He kept thinking of her. He kept thinking of Liya. He signed a couple of receipts and then pushed his ledgers away from him and leaned back in his high back leather chair folding his hands behind his head. He really tried to concentrate on other matters hoping to drive her memory out of his head. Nothing seemed to work. He meant it when he told Nathan that he didn’t have a choice in pursuing her. He had wanted her from the moment he first laid eyes on her. She held an inexplicable lure over him, and if he ignored it any longer, he swore he would go mad. What sort of intoxicating power did she hold? He’d never known of a mortal to be able to summon him or one such as him before. Yet, she did and without her knowledge. The only explanation was to say she was not human, which he already knew she was. He h

“Can we see her Dr. Stephan?”Stephan shook his head, “She said she didn’t want visitors right now. So maybe you should all go home. I will release her in the morning after we cast the leg.”Aya jumped in at that statement, “Excuse me Doctor, but it’s late and we’ve been waiting all afternoon and into the evening to see her.”Stephan stared at the beautiful blonde for a moment considering her words, “I’m sorry, I must go with the wishes of my patient.”“Have you heard of my father, Senator Stanten?” Aya beamed. ”I’m sure he would be grateful if you were to help us out.”Ted rolled his eyes.“No, I’m sorry Miss. Liya is my patient, not your father.” He didn’t care who her father was. Yes, he knew of him.She became defensive, “Look, if you value your job….”Stephan gave her a look of disgust, “…My job is safe, I assure you. This is a private hospital”
