The Mark Book 1

What happens when the player becomes the played? Damian is a well-known player until he meets Haley Cunningham. Haley captures his eye; however, unlike the rest of his conquests, she doesn’t seem to be the least bit interested. It throws him off. However, it also makes it more exciting. Haley becomes his mark. He’s willing to do anything and everything to spend one night with her, even if that means putting aside his playboy ways. After a recent acquisition, Stone Enterprises is set for the expansion of the century. The only thing delaying the expansion is Damian Stone, the younger brother of owner Zane Stone. Zane spends most of his time in Europe to begin work on the new company. The only problem is that Damian’s playboy ways are standing in the way of taking over Zane’s role. Stone Enterprises is a prestigious tech firm with a strong reputation. This means that Damian must choose between a quick lay and a first-time relationship to keep its reputation. Will he succeed? Or will the company risk being placed in the hands of its enemies? Damian is hell-bent on keeping up his bachelor lifestyle until Zane presents him with the offer of a lifetime. Zane will gift his younger brother the company if he can succeed in dating one girl. Sounds easy? Perhaps not. Zane knows his brother too well and decides to make a few rules that Damian must agree to in order for him to take ownership. Damian must stay in a relationship with the girl for at least seven months. Damian can not see any other girl. That even includes the “quick lay” that Damian has grown accustomed to. Not only that, but Zane also gets to pick the girl as well. Will Damian succeed? Or is he doomed to fail?

After I dropped Jessica off at her place, I had to make a few phone calls. I wanted to arrange a meal service for Jessica. It was the least I could do. I didn't want her to either skip meals or have to worry about making them. I wanted to try and help her as much as I could. In the short amount of time I've known Jess, I found her to be extremely compelling. Though I wasn't oblivious to her and Liam's relationship. I was never one to intrude on another's relationship before, so I knew I would have to tread lightly. The last thing I wanted was to come between the two of them.

After making the arrangements, I made my way to the office. It was the first time I'd been here since the accident. Seeing it now during the daylight put things in a whole new perspective. The investigators were still stationed both in and outside the building. So I parked my car and made my way to their command post. I wanted to know how their investigation was going.
