Isabelle's POV

He leaned in, his voice dropping to a low, venomous level that made me tremble, "I don't like you, Isabelle. At all. I tolerate you because I had to. You are my fiancée, you are my link to my memories, and I kept telling myself it was necessary."

I felt the tears start to stream down my face again, but I barely noticed them.

"But ever since that night I kissed you," he continued, and his face twisted with genuine, visceral disgust, "I have disliked you so much that I don't even want to be in the same room as you. Your touch makes me sick. I hate the way you talk, the way you look at me. Everything about you repulses me."

He paused, letting the crushing weight of his confession hang in the air. I shook my head violently, denial flooding my senses.

"No. You don't mean that. You can't. You need me! You're confused!" I cried, desperate to cling to the structure I had built, "She must have told you some monstrous lie about me! I am the only one who cares about you, Alaric!

    Alaric's PovRhea grabbed my arms, trying to pull my hands away from my own face, her own strength struggling against my despair."Alaric, please! Stop! What is wrong with you?!" She cried, her voice breaking.I looked at her, remembering the fear in her eyes the day I lost my memory, the pain when I rejected her in the hospital, the fear when I almost choked the life out of her at the club that day. "R.. Rhea." I choked out, my voice raspy and shaking. I grabbed her wrists, pulling them to my chest, "Rhea, I'm so sorry. I'm so incredibly sorry for how I treated you.” My head bowed, tears springing to my eyes, hot and immediate, "I was stupid and an idiot. I shouldn't have believed Isabelle from the beginning, no matter what, I should have tried to find out the truth from the beginning. I remember... I strangled you..I did that, Rhea. I put my hands on you. l actually put my hands on you!” I pulled my arms free and grabbed handfuls of my own hair, pulling it tight. "I blamed you,

    Alaric's PovMy first and only instinct was Rhea. I turned instantly, wrapping my arms tightly around her, pulling her small, trembling body against my chest. I felt her heart hammering against my side, a frantic, rapid rhythm that spoke of the terror she had just faced."Rhea, are you hurt?" I demanded, my voice rough with panic, searching her face for cuts, for any sign of injury from the fall or Isabelle's attack.She was pale and she clutched my shirt, her face buried in my chest."I'm fine, Alaric.” She whispered, her voice weak but steady, "I'm okay. But... Isabelle..."I didn't need to ask. I held Rhea close, easing her body away from the door, and looked over the railing of the small balcony. Below, in the dusty, narrow alley, a broken figure lay still on the concrete. Isabelle.The sight was gruesome. Final. Tragic, in the sickest way possible. A life thrown away for a delusion built on lies and revenge. However, the more I stared at the mangled body, I felt a cold rush of ai

    Rhea's Pov “Don't you dare pity me!” Isabelle yelled, her bloodshot eyes glaring at me.“Pity?” I repeated, moving even closer to her. I leaned in and whispered, my voice dripping with cold satisfaction, “Why should I pity you? You brought this upon yourself. It's good that you get the consequences of your actions. When you planned on doing this from the beginning, did you even think that you were going to fail? You were so arrogant, Isabelle, and look at where it got you. A woman who is now known as one who slept with multiple men and is now infected with HIV/AIDS. You should have just stopped after Alaric left, but no. You felt like you could have it all. In the end, you lost everything you've worked for since the beginning. It really is such a pity.” I shook my head, my eyes glancing around the entire place.Isabelle breathed heavily, sweat dripping down her face like she had poured water all over herself. I shifted back, wanting to take a good look at her face when she suddenly r

    Rhea's Pov“If I wanted to lure her to do anything, I would have been the one to lure her in and not the other way around!” I cried out, letting the phone recording finish with a sickening finality.Isabelle, still stumbling inside the room, looked completely cornered. She tried one last, desperate attempt to regain control.“That recording is fake! It’s been edited! She’s trying to destroy me because she knows Alaric would never love her! She hired those men to make me look bad! Don’t believe her tears!” she screamed, pointing a trembling, bruised finger at me.Before the reporters could fully process the whole thing, a deep, authoritative voice cut through the shouting."The only thing that has been destroyed here is your credibility, Isabelle."The crowd parted instantly as Alaric emerged from the emergency stairwell, flanked by Laziel and Marcus. The most important element trailing behind him was the waiter, Marco.Marco was being held firmly by Marcus’s massive hand on his should

    Rhea's PovThe chaos in the hallway intensified, the reporters shouting over one another, all focusing on Isabelle's motives. The sight of the sex den and the accusation of drugging me was already explosive.“AIDs! She wanted to throw you into a room filled with men that have AIDs!” One of the reporters shouted, her eyes widened in horror. “That's so wicked! How can a woman do this to her fellow woman?”“Don't you know? Women are one of the most dangerous people on this planet. They will do anything in order to get what they want. Including bringing down other women and even destroying their dignity.”“No! That's not true! I didn't do this! I didn't do any of this! She's trying to spin it all around and blame it on me! She's the villain here! She pushed me into this room!” Isabelle screamed as she got up from the bed, stumbling slightly on the littered floor. Tears were streaming down her face.“She's been targeting me all this time because she thinks I stole Alaric away from her. She

    Rhea's PovThe reporters, instantly smelling blood and scandal, started shouting questions. “Did you hear? The person inside is calling for Rhea Valerius,” I heard one reporter whisper loudly into his microphone, angling the camera toward the locked room.“Who's inside that place? I've been hearing sounds throughout the night.” Another voice chimed in.“There were multiple men inside that room and only one woman. What do you think they were doing inside that place?”“What else? It couldn't be a business meeting, could it?”I snickered internally in response to the last sentence, quickly covering my mouth so no one would see the genuine amusement. Then I straightened my back and pushed through the reporters, heading straight toward the open doorway of the chaotic room.The moment I got to the room, I forced a gasp, my eyes widening in shock and horror.Damn! I had no idea that Isabelle had this kind of capability, and she was still alive! Inside the room were about seven different men
