Warlock Ch 119. Not My Ego
Evelyn reached out, placing a comforting hand on Damian's arm. "It'll come back," she said gently. "We just need to be patient."
Damian opened his eyes, looking at her with a mixture of gratitude and guilt. "Thanks," he said quietly. "For sticking with me. Even when I didn't deserve it."
Evelyn smiled softly, her hand lingering on his arm. "Always."
Cassius, watching the exchange, rolled his eyes. "Touching," he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
Damian turned to him, his expression shifting into a smug grin. "Of course, it's touching. But you wouldn't understand, Cas. A perpetually single guy like you? You should stop frowning so much. Smile a bit. Who knows, you might actually get a girlfriend someday."
Cassius's eyes narrowed into a death glare. "I wonder who keeps giving me a reason to frown every damn day, huh? How can I smile when you're always the reason for my headaches?"
