Chapter Eight
While mopping an idea hit me, causing me to grin like a lunatic. Blame that on this lonely apartment. The silence was just too deafening and would drive me crazy if I would not make an alternative. So while cleaning the floor I hummed one of my favorite classic songs and dance with a mop on hand making it my dance partner.
“When I fall in love it will be forever for I never fall in love…” I started, swaying with the wooden stick thinking it was the sexy devil in a room next to mine. I imagine we're dancing like there’s no tomorrow, a dance full of love and passion, making the world around us to blurred into nothingness.

To never leave my side.I shook my head, in hopes to clear my head. She can't be with me. She's just my captive.My willing captive.I marched to my room before closing it with so much force I could hear the hinges rattled. ‘Why am I so pissed? I just knew the girl and my gut is telling me that she's not who she says she is.’ I thought, mentally berating myself.

But it's too damn impossible to look past the horror I felt when he blurted out those words.‘And your still a virgin.’Those damning words played over and over again, mocking me, making me squirm.

I remembered falling asleep on Alaric’s chest after fixing me, his arms around my petite body. The lingering feeling of warmth and protection stayed even after he got up, making me giddy. His side of the bed was still warm, it means he just got up and do some errands.Last night I saw another side of Alaric. The way he held me on our date and the way he comforts me, lulling me to sleep.He had said that he found Lena and in the hospital nursing a mild concussion. I felt guilty. I should have been the one in her place, not the other way around. Why can’t they just leave me alone? Why hunt me to the end of the world? Roman doesn’t even love me to begin with.I tentatively touch the wound in my head. It still hurts but it's no longer bleeding. A furrow formed on my brow and slowly peel the band-aid on my finger that I had accidentally cut.It was already healed. It was not supposed to close that fast. Mother had been adamant t

That I'm not a princess and he's not a cold-blooded killer or whatever he is.Being with me would only mean I'm gonna drag him into my chaotic world whether I like it or not. And it won't matter if we're romantically involved or not.

I gasped in surprise. “Roman?”And before I could say another word, Roman yank me into a fierce embrace. I could feel his body shaking as he touches me everywhere like he can't believe I am real. I did not recoil. I did not even push him away. I just let him.I feel like I owe it to him. He may be a murderer but he had never shown me that dark side of him.“Victoria,” he breathes out. I gently pushed him off me while gazing suspiciously at him. “What are you doing here?”He looked at me like I'm retarded. “I've been looking for you,” he pointed out matter of fact.“How did you know I would be here?” Did somehow Alaric figure out my biggest secret? Did he set me up with Roman?“I don't,” and I believe him. There's something about how Roman would talk to me while his eyes were gazing at me intently. Though his candor never stops me from running away I know he doesn't h
