It all started with a dare ✔️

Chapt. 31

Ella's PoV

The anonymous guy looks at me with wide eyes.

"E-El-Ellie? B-b-but h-how? A-l-l-live?" He says.

I tilt my head to the side and look at him confused.

"Ellie?" He says softly. I just stare at him.

I squint my eyes at him. I start feeling a bit lightheaded and suddenly I'm back at home.

A little kid is dressed in a tin armour thing. I'm dressed in a blue princess gown.

"My knight in shining tin can!" I giggle. Why was I saying that?

"My princess in wooden shoes." The little boy says smiling down at me. Since when was I so short?

"I love you Damie!" I giggle.

"I love you too Ellie!" He says and I start feeling light headed again.

"Elena?!"
"Wake up!"
"Elena!"

I jolt up awake.

What the hell happened ?

"You passed out."

"Oh." I say realising I said that out loud.

"You and Damien did. They took him home." Mr. Ryder says.

"Who?" I ask.

"The man earlier. I wonder why he was acting strange when he saw you." He says. "Do you know him?"

"No. Never met him." Though he does seem familiar.

"Erm, I think you should head back home and get some rest. We'll rearrange the meeting tomorrow." Mr. Ryder says.

"Oh, What was the meeting about anyway?" I ask.

"We'll talk about it tomorrow. I'll get someone to drive you back." He says.

"It's okay. I can handle myself." I say trying not to sound harsh. "Thanks for the offer. Now if you excuse me..." I trail off.

"Of course. I hope you feel better tomorrow." He smiles.

"Bye. See you tomorrow!" I say leaving the office.

I shut the door and take deep breath.

I walked to my car and sat in the drivers seat and hold onto the steering wheel tightly.

Inhale, exhale.

"Breath in, breath out." He tells me trying to stay calm.

I shook my head trying to get rid of the headache.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath again.

Inhale......

"Damien don't leave me!" I shout.

I open my eyes and jump in shock.

Damien?

Who's Damien?

I shook my head to get rid of all the thought swirling in my head and turn on the car.

I reach my penthouse and switch on the lights.

It's still early in the day so I decide to go check on how the preparations for the event at my restaurant is going.

Did I mention I own a restaurant? No? Oh well now you know.
