Damien did his best to ignore the new head of security who was already
several floors closer than he would like him to be. The security from home
stayed away from his office, that was how it had always been. No
doubt reports of what he did still got back to his father, but he didn't
need active spies looking over his shoulder.
Perhaps Spencer congratulated himself on staying to the outside edges of
Damien's peripheral vision, but no matter how he tried, Damien was still
acutely aware of Spencer's presence. The man was a thorn that kept poking
at his awareness and there was nothing Damien could do to pull it free. He
breathed easier for the few hours that the man was gone and got real work
done, but he still felt like most of the day was wasted pretending to be
busy rather than actually doing it.
He just couldn't work with someone who he knew was looking over his
shoulder.
"You have seen all you need today. You are not accompanying me tomorrow,
are we clear on that, Spencer?" Damien said before the elevator arrived.
