Chapter 12

Holly's POV

The ride was silent and I could feel that there was a thick tension in the air. Damon spent his time staring out the window and I couldn't help but get the slightest idea that he felt guilty. I wondered if he was going to ask me how I'd gotten outside or if I was trying to run away. I wondered if I would tell him the truth.

I thought about how mad he had gotten at Isabelle's cousins, the rage in his voice was something I have never heard before. It was a side of Damon that made me question what kind of person he really was.

He was hot and then he was cold and it made him one of the most complicated people I have ever met. I couldn't deny that I was intrigued by his care and I wanted to explore that side of him but a part of me knew that he would hide that side for any and everyone or at least fight it as hard as he knew how.

The car came to halt and I gazed outside the window to see the entrance of a hotel. We had only been driving for around twenty minutes and so I wondered if we are going to go home tomorrow or if he planned on staying here longer. I turned to ask but Damon had already stepped out of the car. I hurriedly followed and watched as the car disappeared.

Damon marched into the lobby with me at his heels as he headed for the front desk.

The brunette girl behind the desk quickly straightened herself up and patted her hair down the second she caught sight of him. I stifled the urge to roll my eyes. She reminded me of Ade.

"Hi, what can I do for you," her high-pitched voice made me want to cover my ears.

It was almost as if I was invisible to her because her bright blue eyes were glued to Damon only.

"I'll take the president suite please, one night," Damon had whipped out his phone and was typing away at it, bearing her no mind.

She spared a confused look my way finally and began to type on her keyboard.

"Can I have a piece of ID please?"

I was half expecting Damon to refuse but to my surprise, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a wallet and then a driver's license. I was tempted to grab it from his hands and check his birthdate.

The girl behind the desk presented Damon with a paper that he then signed on. Without her having to utter a word, he placed a metal black credit card on the counter. She grabbed the card, still glancing at him nervously, and typed away for another couple of seconds.

Damon glanced at me. I flinched away at the sudden gaze and I have no idea why.

She handed Damon back his card and an envelope," "there are the keys in there," her voice had gone seductive and almost overly confident as if she was trying to calm her own nerves," and a little extra surprise."

I couldn't help but roll my eyes now, not that she would have seen having pasted her gaze completely at Damon. Damon hardly gave her another look before grabbing the envelope and strutting towards the elevators.

I almost wanted to few embarrassed for the girl but in reality, I was impressed because had that been me, I would have struggled to simply talk. The elevator ride was silent and so was the walk down the hallway to our room. We arrived at door 2406 as stated on our envelope. It was the highest floor in the building and the entrance to our room, unlike the others, had two doors as opposed to one.
