Chapter 173: The bet!

Damien woke up feeling numbness in his left hand.

He pushed her aside and pry free his hand, flexing it and rekindling it.

His mind wandered to last night's confession and Dani's acceptance. He can now sleep with women without fearing someone killing them when he's away.

Though how much he can trust her had to wait. Only time will tell.

Today's the day, the tournament officially starts.

Though he thought he would miss this if he visits his father, his old man had other plans.

Duke Zadkiel compelled him to go straight to the tournament rather than visit the island and his mother.

Of course, he was suspicious but the duke kept on insisting on it saying he would have to clean the island completely before he can visit it and his mother is working on it and will join the tournament sooner or later.

He knew the duke was hiding something but he also knew that his father wouldn't keep secrets from him for long.
