Vanessa's P.O.V.As I watched Zeux, I smiled. He is a decent person. And I feel like he's something special in my heart because of his constant care for me whenever I'm sick and making me feel like there's someone who still loves me. I'm sorry for passing judgment on him so quickly."Are you okay now?" he asked as he approached me.I give him a friendly nod. "Yes, I am, and I am grateful to you for always being there for me."He only smiled. "You are always welcome, Vanessa, and I will do everything in my ability to ensure your safety and well-being."I look him perfectly straight in the eyes. I'm still not sure why he treats me this way. I'm not sure why he's so nice to me. Is he actually in love with me? Or am I just assuming?"Permit me to ask you a question?"His brows furrowed. "Of course, but what is it?"I took a deep breath before beginning to speak. "I was wondering why you are so good to me. Like, why are you like that to me? I can't remember the last time I did something ni
Zeux Morningstar's P.O.V.I am looking at the girl in front of me, dancing seductively while bitting her lips. Watching her dancing makes me feel aroused. I'm here in the club now with my friends. I drink the tequila, then look at my friend Jason. "Hey Zeux Morningstar," he smiled because he called me with my complete name. "How was the girl? Is she sexy?" He asked while grinning."Yes she is. I like to touch her big ass right now but I feel kinda tired because a lot of proposal I have read."Jason smirked. "You're such a workaholic. I was wondering, what is your total money in your bank account. I guess it's eleven digits?"I laughed. "Wow. You're being exaggerated."He raised his eyebrows. "No I'm not. You just don't want me to know how much your money is. I envy you for making such a lot of money. I wish I have more money to buy a lot of girls." He laughed then drank the tequila in his hands.I say goodbye to my friend Jason because I really need to sleep right now. Maybe tomorrow
Vanessa Lyre's P.O.V."You mean someone helped you get your bag back? Is that right?" I nodded. "Yes. He was the one who almost ran over me. I was also wrong because I suddenly crossed. I was so nervous, I thought I was really going to crash. Fortunately, he was able to brake in time.""You know what Vanessa, it's a good thing you weren't run over. It's still expensive for a funeral. I don't have a funeral for you just in case. You know we don't have the money. Even though it's just the two of us, we're still running out of money to buy rice. We are always short of money."Aunt Bia walked over to the couch. She picked up the remote and then watched."All right, Auntie. I'm leaving. I'm going to apply for a job. I'll go ahead." She nodded. "All right. I hope you'll be hired. Take care, Vanessa."I left our apartment and waited for a bus. Tita Bia and I are just the two of us living together. Tita Bia was unlucky to have children, so her boyfriend left her. While I was happy with my f
Vanessa's P.O.V.I can say that I am doing well at Zeux's company a week after being hired. I'm just a little stressed out because of all the paperwork. I have no issues with my co-workers because they are kind to me. I'm leaving now because its to go home. I cleared my desk and said my goodbyes to my co-workers."How's your day, Vanessa? You look so tired?" Jolie asked, smiling.She is our haughty neighbor. She made money by marrying an old man and now she's looking down to us. "I'm fine. I'm just tired from work."She shook her head. "Is that so? You're unfortunate. You're working so hard. Why don't you just want to marry an old man? I hope you have a lot of money now like me. I'm just waiting for this husband to die and then I'll look for a new husband. Of course, I look for a young husband that I want to marry," she said proudly.I locked my gaze on her. I'm not sure where she got her shameless attitude. She was no longer sorry for his elderly husband. Her husband loved her, but
Zeux's P.O.V.That woman irritated me greatly. She's very shameless in what she's doing to me. She pretended we had something going on between us when we didn't. We aren't a couple. She had the audacity to approach me and harass me because she already knew who I am. That woman was madly in love with me. I wish she would leave my world, but I can't because she will spread my true identity as a werewolf."What's the deal with you looking like that? Did you have a fight or something?" Jason inquired.Jason is my best friend. He was well acquainted with me. He knew my true identity. And he's the one I most trust. We've known each other since I rescued him from the men who kidnapped him."Zafira just came here and I desperately want to strangle her."He laughed softly. "Perhaps because that woman is madly in love with you and lusts after you every day."I raised an eyebrow at him. "Who wouldn't be attracted to me? Will anyone refuse me when I come?"He just shook his head and touched his n
Vanessa's P.O.V.I was on my way back home when Zeux appear on my way. I gave him a startled look. I was surprised when he smiled at me. Widely."Are you going home?" he asked, smiling."Perhaps, but what else do you think? Just coming in?"I slapped myself because he was shocked by what I said. "What are you mad about? I'm just asking."I pretended to laugh with one hand on my head. I don't know why I said that. Perhaps it's because I'm not in a good mood right now. I had a headache while working earlier today."I'm sorry, sir. I had a headache earlier and I'm not in the mood to talk," I say, then fake a smile.He cracks a grin. "Is that so? Don't worry, I'll just ask you if you want to go home because I wanna give you a ride. I promise I won't do anything else. I just want to take you home."I scratched my brow and then locked my gaze on him. What did this man eat? Is he all right or something? Why does he want to take me home? He appears to be planning something bad for me, I think
Vanessa's P.O.V.I received a message from an unknown number while I was busy taking care of my food. I immediately read it and recognized it was coming from Zeux. I raised my eyebrow."What is his problem?" I asked quietly.The message stated that he was waiting for me at our street's corner because he had promised to accompany me to his company. I grimaced. It appears that this man intends to flirt with me; perhaps this is his first step in getting me to like him. So, go ahead, I'm just going with the flow to avoid paying the fare.I hurried to the corner of the street and saw his car. He sounded his horn at me. He exited the vehicle and then opened the door for me. I gave him a friendly smile."Good morning, Sir! You're so generous now! I have a free ride from you! I'm so lucky!" I exclaimed as I climbed into the car. I just overheard him laughing.I asked him while he was driving. "Why are you so nice to me, Sir? What did you eat? Is that really your kindness, or is there a exchan
Zeux's P.O.V.I'm now with Jason at the bar. I suddenly missed spending time with the woman. I've been preoccupied with being nice to Vanessa lately. I'm sure she was wondering why I did that to her, but there was no other way to express my gratitude. Her parents are very nice, and I appreciate them defending me, caring for me, and treating me as their second child. "How are you and Vanessa doing? It's a good thing she's not asking you why you've been so nice to her," Jason inquired.I inhaled deeply. "I know she's wondering, and I know she has a lot of questions, but that's the only way I can help. And one more thing, she needs it, especially since I found out her Aunt and Vanessa are having a hard time.""Perhaps it hurt her so much because she lost both of her parents at the same time," Jason said, looking at me.I finish the tequila I was holding and begin to speak."Of course, it hurts her a lot, and it hurts me too, especially because I was the reason they were killed. My pack
