Soon, and much to Cole's relief, Nora, Megan, and Sadie decided to end their day. Sadie was left to close her restaurant, while Rhys drove Megan back to her apartment before he drove Nora back to her apartment.
Internally, Nora was hoping for something when she returned to her apartment only to be disappointed when she reached her apartment and found that it was empty. Not with things but empty with a presence that she was longing for.
Damien left her apartment without a word or note to her. He didn't even wake her up to tell her that he was leaving. But then, what would she expect? Like a phantom, Damien comes and leaves her apartment without any trace. Without any words.
And that fact absolutely irks Nora.
"Expecting someone?" Nora heard Cole's teasing tone behind her making her more irritated. She didn't even notice that she was standing by her doorstep for too long and that Cole and Rhys were just behind her.
