Nora’s POV.

“What? Do you even know what you're saying?” I heard my father yell, rising to his feet and before I knew it, he landed a slap on my cheek.

“Il Sangue Freddo, I am sorry. Please, forgive her childishness and spare her” my father pleaded, getting on his knees once again.

“Get on your knees you brat and beg to be saved” he spat from where he had knelt, eyeing me disgustingly.

I didn’t move, didn’t say a word. All I did was to stand by my word, waiting for the Almighty Il Sangue Freddo to do his worst.

I was breathing heavily, as if I was getting ready to leash at my prey.

“You have fire within you, and I love that. But I think you should be careful who you burn it with- because some people don’t burn to ashes, they explode” he roared and the next thing I saw, was his fingers wrapped around my neck tightly, choking me.

His movement was swift. One second, he was seated in front of me and the next- his hand was wrapped tightly around my throat.

    Selene/Camilla's POV The drive from the house to the venue took about 45 minutes. By the time we got there, the hall was already filled with people of different calibre. I didn't know Steve had invited a lot of people like that. Well, that made it more interesting because he was about embarrassing himself in the presence of the whole world. The event kick-started and the MC swung into action. We were called in and as soon as Steve and I stepped into the hall, the well wishes swung to their feet to welcome us. A few selected well wishers were invited to the podium to say the kind of man they perceived Steve to be and they all spoke so highly of him. Well, if only they knew what he was engaged in behind closed doors. The cake was cut and a toast was made, wishing the celebrant many years to celebrate. Although, that wish was never bound to come true. Steve and I moved around the hall, appreciating each and every well wisher for turning up and honoring our invitation. But I found s

    Selene/Camilla's POV The day came. The day I believed everything would end and things would fall into their rightful places. So I had thought, but I was wrong. I woke up very early that morning, before every other person.I needed some time alone- the time to celebrate my fast approaching victory and freedom. Still in my night wear, I walked out of the mansion into the garden, with a glass of champagne held in my hand. I allowed the cold morning air to seep into my bones, flapping strands of my hair across my face. I slowly began to move my body- dancing without music as I sip my champagne. Suddenly, I felt someone wrap his arms around me from behind. I gasped and my body stiffened.“Who could that be?” I had thought, not until his smell filled my nostrils- the smell of that man I had unexpectedly couldn't do without. Realizing who it was, I displayed a satisfying smile on my face. His breath fanned my neck, as he whispered into my ear, kissing my neck. “Good morning, my Sel

    Selene/Camilla's POV Day broke and we both left the hotel, headed to our various destinations. But before we parted ways, we had a brief conversation on the way forward. “So, what do we do now, Williams? Are we still pushing forward with our plan tomorrow?” I asked, getting dressed and packing my hair into a bun. The dry cleaner delivered my dress as he had promised. “Yes, we are. Steve needs to die nevertheless. Afterwards, we can focus on tracking Ravyna down. I will ask around if anyone knows who Ravyna is and where she is based,” Williams, who was sitting on the bed, responded. “Okay. So, are we going home together?” I asked, wanting to ensure he wouldn't run away again that time around. “No, we aren't. I have somewhere to be, and it wouldn't be nice if we show up together at the mansion after you spent the night out. Do you think Steve will keep calm if he sees us together?” He asked and I gave what he had said a thought. Realizing he was making sense, I nodded my head slow

    Selene's POV. As we wrapped ourselves in each other's embrace, that whisper came again. "Lunaria, Drevyn and his family are not to be trusted. Remember what they did to you!" the voice bellowed, playing with my head. But that time around, I didn't listen. In situations like that, I would have pushed Williams away, but I didn't. I didn't want to believe that voice anymore- I just wanted to follow my heart. And even if I were to let his hand go, it wouldn't be at that moment because he was the only one I got. For weeks now, I had deprived my heart of his presence, pushed him away. The way he yelled at me the other time, I could feel his pain. The pain he felt from me pushing him away each time he tried grabbing onto my hand. But I wouldn't anymore. I would stick to his side and watch us sail through everything. I would trust him with my whole heart and even if it meant me falling for the wrong brother twice, so be it. I tightened my hold around him, scared that he would slip
