last update publish date: 2025-07-01 22:34:53

Alessia's POV

It took all the strength in me to get my legs to move. I passed through a few nurses and doctors, ignoring their greetings.

The last thing I needed was to talk to anyone. I couldn't even summon the courage to head to the Chairman's office again. Not after the threat Damiano made.

I was about to head into the office when someone called out my name, but I ignored the call. Suddenly, a hand grabbed me by the hand, making me turn around.

"Are you okay?" Marcello asked, pulling my at

    Alessia's POV Cleo, Roman, and Julian sat down, the twins glaring at her. For a second there I actually thought things were going to get messy. They all got up and sat down. I on the other hand felt a bit uncomfortable. Without any warning, I stood up from Damiano and found a seat away from him. Shawn stifled a laugh. The same goes for the others. I could tell that Damiano was pissed, but he didn't let it show.I knew he loved me, but having me sit on his leg in front of everyone was kind of overboard. "So," Damiano said, pulling everyone's attention. "Do you mind telling us why you ditched us back then?"Everyone turned to Shawn. He looked away, as if thinking about how and what to say, before turning to Damiano."The night before the attack. I saw a vision..." His voice trailed off, eyes locking with mine.Cleo was the one who spoke next. "What was it about?"He hesitated before letting out a sigh. "I wasn't sure which of them I saw, but the person was dressed in modern cloth

    Alessia's POV I sat next to Damiano in the car as we drove off. Shawn insisted that we head to a private location to discuss, since "the air had ears," he had said. The team agreed and we all got into the cars that were available and drove off. Damiano's grip on my hand tightened in a gentle way, trying to comfort me. But it didn't do much. Not when a lot of questions were on my mind. What did Shawn mean when he said Damiano wasn't meant to be with her in this lifetime? I knew he was talking about me, but what did he mean by the word, "lifetime?" Then there was the part about Shawn being a Seer. Was that what his kind were called?I tried to shake it off, but I couldn't. And the looks on Leo and Cleo's faces, who had joined us in our own car, weren't helping matters. Still, I couldn't wait for Shawn to explain everything.A few hours passed, but we were finally at our destination—a weird-looking gate. We drove in, and I was shocked. It was the other mansion behind the main Vale

    Alessia's POVDamiano broke free, a frown etching across his features."What happened?" I asked, unsure of whether I had bitten him or pushed my tongue in too deep.Suddenly, he pulled out of me, and straightened, getting off the bed."We need to leave," He said as he headed towards the window.I was confused. I followed his footsteps, getting off the bed and trailing after him."Why? What's going on?" I asked. He didn't say anything. Instead when I got to him, he gestured out of the window towards the front of the hospital.My eyes followed, and then widened."Shit!"It was Detective Shawn. He was talking to Cleo and Leo."What the heck is he doing here?" I asked as Damiano turned away."I'm not sure, but we would have to go out there to find out."He said as he headed for a corner of the room. I sighed. So much for our Lovey Dubey moments. "I had actually forgotten he existed.""Well, I hadn't," Damiano said, reaching for the handle of a closet. "I had actually been keeping tabs

    Alessia's POV Before I could react, Damiano wrapped his hands around me."Where the heck do you think you are going to—again?"The depth in his voice made my heart skip a beat. "Um..." My voice broke. "I need to dress up before the others return.""They won't," He said firmly."And how are you so sure?" I asked, a smirk curving my lips.His deepened into a grin. "Because I told them I would break their bones beyond recovery if they interrupt us."I froze. What the...?I wasn't sure which bothered me the most: the fact that he made that kind of threat, or how he actually did it, because it didn't look like he was lying. "How did you... Do that?" I asked, curiosity tugging at me.He didn't say anything at first. Then his fingers moved, trailing circles on my bare back."I communicated with Cleo through our mindlinks," He said.Now, I was more confused. I know I had seen a few things in some movies, and also read about werewolves being able to talk to each other through their minds.

    Alessia's POV When we finally broke free, our breaths came outside ragged.“Don’t you think you’re a little overdressed?” He muttered.“I could say the same of you,” I giggled, ridding his body of the hospital gown. I helped him pull my t-shirt and as soon as I pulled my trousers and flung them away, he pressed me against the wall. His lips captured my mouth, nibbling playfully at my lower lip before trailing down my jaw and to the dip of my neck. He peppered kisses down to my chest, pulling at my bra with his teeth, before ripping the clothing off me with a snag of his hand. My breath caught—in a good way, and I leaned into the warmth coming from his body. In a moment, my feet were off the floor, and he carried me back to the large bed, gently laying me on it. When our eyes met, his was burning with desire. My breath hitched, and my nerves burned with hunger. He leaned closer, his breath ghosting over my ears. “Are you sure you want this?”I pulled his head to meet his lips, my

    Alessia’s POVMy heart stopped.Then started again in a wild, chaotic rhythm.“Damiano…” I whispered, disbelief and relief crashing through me all at once.He squeezed my hand, eyes softening as he looked at me—really looked at me—as if waking up to find me there was the most natural thing in the world.For a heartbeat, no one else breathed.Then Leo lunged forward so fast he nearly tripped over a cord.Damiano let go of my arm as Leo approached. “Holy—Damiano, you bastard!” he barked, half laughing, half furious. “You scared the absolute shit out of us!”Julian was at the bedside next, one hand on Damiano’s shoulder, checking the machines, checking him, checking everything. Roman’s relief came out as a tight exhale, like he’d been holding it in for hours.Cleo blinked hard, then shoved at Damiano’s arm with a trembling hand. “Don’t ever do that again,” she muttered. “I swear I’ll sedate you myself next time.”They all worked together automatically, gently easing him upright, adjusti

    Damiano's POV I sat in the living room, back leaned into the chair, and head resting comfortably. But I wasn't comfortable. It had been two hours already and they weren't done yet. Why spend so much time on something that'll be washed away the moment a girl is thrown into a pool? It doesn't ad

There wasn't any dramatic pause, no graceful exit—I just bolted. Straight into my room, the door slammed shut behind me so fast the frame rattled.I leaned against i

    Alessia's POV I stared at the mirror doing nothing but watching as the ladies did my hair and makeup. I had to admit, this was kind of fun. It was exactly like taking care of a doll. From bathing her, to dressing her, styling her hair, and everything.You don't have to lift a finger. All you had
