Riley
I take a deep breath as I glance up toward the VIP section, catching Damien's eyes on me again. That pull between us, the dangerous, electric tension, is impossible to ignore. He's been watching me all night, his gaze intense, like he's waiting for something.
Lea nudges me again, breaking me out of my thoughts. "Go on, Riley. You're not done yet."
I nod, more to myself than to her, and make my way toward the staircase that leads to the VIP section. The security at the base of the stairs doesn't even stop me, and as I climb the steps, my pulse quickens; nerves and excitement building inside me.
I've been playing along all night, letting myself be free, but now? Now I'm walking straight into Damien's world, and I have no idea what's waiting for me.
