Robert Montgomery POV:

Charlotte looks a little hesitant. It's the end of the month, so I don't have a lot of cash right now. The best I can do is order Chinese. There's a small takeout place not far from here. They have good egg rolls."

"Sure." I pluck Mano from her arms. "You order, then."

The cat sniffs my face before climbing on top of my shoulder and stretching herself out.

I watch Charlotte place the order, and my mind fills with a hundred questions, none of which I can ask right now. She's so young, in her early twenties. A man in his mid-thirties is surely nothing short of boring for her, but I can't talk myself into leaving. Even in her silly pajamas, she is adorable. I don't think I could ever tire of looking at this woman.

As I stare at Charlotte while she talks to the r

Harry, as my assistant, was tasked with looking up Charlotte’s past. He couldn’t find anything at first, but talking to a few vampires with whom the pack is still on somewhat decent terms revealed a lot.Charlotte Beaumont was once Charlotte Sanguinite, the oldest daughter of one of the most notorious vampire clan leaders. When Harry brought me that information this evening, I felt a variety of emotions: shock, betrayal, hurt, and anger.It was hard to reconcile the gentle Charlotte with the greedy, ambitious,

    Charlotte Sanguinite POV:It’s the wetness of my cheek that makes me stir.Groaning, I opened my eyes and saw Robert’s face. For a brief moment, I felt confused and dizzy. And then, I register the pain. Along with the pain come the memories of what happened.I tried to sit up, but Robert held me down. “Easy. Not yet. You’re in no condition to move.”“I have to—I have to see the damage.”“Don’t worry about it.” He strokes my hair. “I’ve taken care of it." You need to rest.”“Arabella?”“Gone. "I didn’t kill her.” Robert’s eyes harden as he tells me that. I let out a sigh of relief, and he gave me a strange look. “She wa

    Charlotte Sanguinite POV:“You,” I breathe, rooted in place out of fear and shock.The last time I saw Arabella, she was sneering at me, a kind of viciousness in her eyes that no ten-year-old should have. When it came to her appearance, Arabella inherited our father’s dark looks, her skin a beautiful olive shade, her eyes a sharp green, and her hair black as a raven’s, falling to her waistline like a waterfall. As a child, she was cute, but as an adult, she’s gorgeous. Her cheekbones are sharp, her eyes almost catlike. She has lost all her chubbiness, her figure slims like a model’s.Compared to her, I look like a frumpy maid, with my hair in disarray, my curvy figure, and the bags under my eyes.I see the way my sister looks at me, her ey

    Charlotte Sanguinite POV:“And you said…?”“I said no.” I blinked several times. “He and I, we’re from very different worlds. It’s not going to work.”Clearing my throat, I began walking back to the cupcake display, my heartbeat unsteady. Jazz trails after me. “So what if he’s some crazy rich guy? He’s clearly head over heels for you! That’s gotta count for something.”I opened the display and started setting up the cupcakes. “I want a simple, peaceful life, Jazz. Robert Montgomery is the furthest thing from that kind of person.”“He seems peaceful enough.” Jazz leans over the glass display case, watching me. “Besides, if a man looked at me like he was just looking at you,

I’ve tried everything I possibly could not to let them affect my daily life, but that’s easier said than done. The problem is that the man I always saw in my dreams—the faceless man who doted on me, who loved me, who made me feel special and important and everything else in between—now has a face.He has Robert’s face.And somehow, it hurts even more.Angie left that day with a warning, telling me to be careful. She was certain Robert was not done with me. But I knew he was. He had to be. Why else would he avoid me like that? And even though I kept telling myself that this was for the best, it didn’t negate
