Alessandro’s POV

“Well, can the devil choose a movie fast enough?” she asks.

Her tone isn’t commanding, but it’s also not the usual sweet tone girls use to get whatever the fuck it is they want.

I drop the remote and turn back to her. “If you want something, ask for it politely.”

“Fine,” she mutters, rolling her eyes.

God, this woman is irritable.

“Could you please choose a suitable movie for me?”

“What do you want to watch?” I ask, already giving up.

“Me Before You.”

“Why that movie?” I ask, scrolling toward it.

“Because it’s sweet, and kind. . .and sad.”

“You love sad movies?”

“No, not really, but I like that one.”

“Let me guess. It’s a romance movie.”

“Yes, but it’s not just a romance movie. It has depth, and emotions, and. . .”

“. . .none of the things I will ever give a fuck about,” I cut in.

She pouts her lips, slow and sulky. “You can leave then. Make it fast.”

I drop the remote with a snap and walk out with my jaw tight.

But I don’t go far.

I linger at the edge of the hallway,

    Rue’s POVHe doesn't respond to my question.“Luka, I am speaking to you,” I say to him,“Yes? He asks, playing dumb.“You heard my question, answer it.”He turns to me, “Mr Vanilli is an amazing man, and he cares for you deeply.”At that, I just let my eyes roll in their sockets. “That's not what I asked for,”He doesn't say a thing.Exhausted, I let the topic be.There's no reason to be bothered about it. Even if Alessandro decided to stick his dick into someone else, it wasn't meant to be any of my problem. It wasn't, I repeat to myself.I am well fed, well bred, and doing fine. I believe that's enough. He's a man, I shouldn't expect any better.“Help me up, I want to get to my room,” I demand,He immediately rushes to my side.With his help, I am able to gently walk up the stairs, and into my room.I met Alessandro there on a phone call. As soon as he sees me, he pauses.“Let me call you back,” he says into the phone,I look up to meet his face.“Are you alright?” He asks,He doe

    RueAlessandro had sex with Celeste.Alessandro had sex with Celeste.Wait! he fucked his mistress while I was lying in a hospital bed?My husband fucked another woman while I was unconscious?I turn to Claire, and from the way her nose scrunches and her lips part in shock, I can tell she’s just as stunned.“This can’t be true,” she says, shaking her head slowly.I want to believe her. But I don’t know what to believe anymore.“It’s not true,” she repeats, firmer this time, like she’s trying to convince herself.“It could be.”“No. I know Alessandro. He’s not the kind of man to. . .”Her words die in her throat as the devil himself walks in.Alessandro.Luka follows silently behind him.Alessandro walks toward me and hands me three things, a bouquet of fresh flowers, a teddy bear, and a box of chocolates.My head is pounding, but I reach for them anyway, holding them gently in my arms.

    Alessandro’s POV Luka bursts through the door, striding into the office ahead of me. My heart races, pounding with a mix of fury and anticipation as I follow him inside. I step into his domain, where my father lifts his gaze from a mountain of papers, a hint of surprise flickering in his eyes. “To what do I owe this unexpected visit?” he asks, arching his back with feigned nonchalance. “Good evening,” I reply, brushing aside his mind games. “Evening, son. How are you feeling?” “Annoyed,” I snap, ready to dive into the storm brewing between us. “Huh? Why?” He asks, I know he's waiting for me to bring up the topic, so I drag out the tension. “I want Celeste gone,” “Why?” He asks, He narrows his eyes on me, and I straighten my spine. “She is of no use to me.” “Alessandro, she's not a toy. She's a gift.” “One I don't want anymore.” “You can't tell me you don't want her as a gift. Every man wants her.” He says, locking his fingers. “I think I am quite fine without her.

    RueAlessandro Vanilli is not in love with me. That’s absolutely impossible.It is. It has to be.There’s no way he’s in love with me.I glance at Claire. She must be delusional. She doesn’t know what she’s saying.I chew on my bottom lip, trying to shove the thought away, bury it somewhere deep. I don’t want to entertain the idea of Alessandro having feelings for me, not even a little. Because I know it’s impossible. Absolutely, undeniably impossible. And I’m not about to raise my hopes for nothing.“Your father reached out,” Claire says, flipping through the mail scattered across her desk.Why people still send physical letters in this digital age is beyond me.“Oh. . .” I finally react, blinking.She looks up, her eyes meeting mine. “Why are you surprised?”“It’s nothing,” I say quickly.Aside from the fact that my father has never once tried to contact me since Alessandro took me in as his pet, there really isn’t any other reason to be shocked. He had erased me from his life so th

    Rue“Finally,” I breathe, letting out a moan as the nurse removes the last injection from my hand.Luka and Alessandro stand nearby, watching closely as I’m helped off the bed.“Do you think you can stand on your own?” Alessandro asks.I place both feet on the floor. To my surprise, I feel sturdy, strong, even.“Yeah,” I say, nodding. “I feel pretty good.”He gives a small, approving nod. “Walk toward me.”I obey, taking careful, measured steps until I reach him.The doctor clears his throat. “Her medications are listed on this prescription. Make sure she takes each one without missing a dose. If she does, the recovery might take longer, but if she follows it precisely, she should be fine within two or three days. The effects weren’t as intense as we initially feared.”Alessandro accepts the prescription and passes it to Luka without a word.I’m helped into a fresh outfit while Luka and the doctor wait outside. Moments later, we leave the cold, sterile walls of the hospital behind.As

    Rue’s POVLuka is the closest thing to normal in this place.I watch him as he strolls ahead, softly humming the lyrics to some obscure song. He always does that, choosing the most random melodies, like he’s trying to blend in with the background. But he never really does.I tap my stomach gently, and just like that, he turns.As always, he falls for the trick. Luka likes to pretend he’s detached, lost in his own world, when in reality, he notices everything. Every movement. Every breath. Every shift in energy.That’s what makes him different.Everyone else in this house is threatening in one way or another. You can tell they’re dangerous by the way they carry themselves, the way they look at you like you’re either prey or a problem. But not Luka. Luka is calm. Quiet. Calculated. And he hides it well. He gives off this effortless, harmless vibe.Like he’s easy to cross.But I know better.I sigh without meaning to.He removes one of his earpieces, his expression softening. “Are you al
