章 99: The summer solstice festival (6)

In the VIP lounge...

Damon watched the scene on the field.

Talia was with a bunch of guys around her, they were taking turns in kneeling and kissing her hand, and Damon felt like someone was wrenching the heart out of his chest. It was the most painful thing Damon experienced in his life and he thought that he is going to lose his mind.

'I told you that Talia is fine.', Maya's voice sounded in Damon's head, and Damon's insides tied into knots as he was suppressing his impulse to go on a rampage.

'You call that fine!?', Damon snapped at Maya through the mind-link. 'What's going on there!?'

'I know as much as you do.', Maya responded honestly.

Damon's wolf was non-responsive, and Damon never felt this lonely. With Talia by his side, Damon was at peace and the fact that Talia was enjoying with someone other than him was infuriating and numbing at the same time, making him feel dead inside. He didn't want to lose her.
