Chris’ POV

I had just finished working on an expense sheet with Alvin. I was so exhausted. It was getting late.

Dante had sent in lunch for the both of us. We both had burrito bowls. I don't think any employer cared for their staff the way Dante did for his.

“Well son, I'm off. So you finish everything off” Alvin stood up to leave. He was taking more of a back seat now, training me. He could leave early and I worked on everything else.

“Goodnight Alvin say hi to Betty and send my thanks to her for the cookies”

Yes, his wife's name is Betty. She had sent cookies with him for work this morning. That was nice.

“I'll deliver your message, goodnight son” he closed the door and left.

I sighed and stared at the stack of papers in front of me. I still had a lot of work to do.

I wasn't complaining. This was a hands-on first-hand experience. I appreciated it. I just needed to get it done with. I had classes tomorrow so I needed to get everything done.

  • The Vampire King's Obsession    Chapter 218

    Dante's POVI watched him with relief as he seemed to look happier. I felt so much guilt for not realizing that he was afraid of leaving the house all this while.If I had known earlier on, I would have done something to help.I raised the back of his palm to my lips and kissed it."It's not as scary as I thought it would be," he smiled, looking at me with a happy expression on his face."I'm sorry," I apologized, as I couldn't keep the guilt inside of me."Why?" he asked, looking shocked at my apology.He was a sweet angel if he didn't realize why I would be at fault and why I would apologize to him."For all my ploys to make your life great and all my promises, you've been through much worse with me than you had when you were alone," I explained to him.I couldn't define the way I felt to him. It was strange and all-encompassing. I loved him in that same all-encompassing way, but I also carried guilt for everything in that same way.I wanted to protect him.I wanted him to be safe a

    Christopher's POV "What are you looking at?" Dante asked from behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist and placing his head on my shoulder.I leaned into him with a faint smile on my face."I'm just staring at the house. I always want to leave, but when I do, I can't help but want to go back immediately. It's like I'm drawn to the house," I explained, and he spun me so I was facing him and smiled at me."This house is ours. It means the world to us. You're connected to it because it's connected to you. Wherever we go, we'll always find our way back here and we can always come back. The house is waiting for us," he explained, and I nodded.I understood what he meant. I knew that too.I just got weirdly attached to the house. I mean, I still want to stay in the penthouse and the house is a little too overwhelming, but I loved it still.I caught myself as my thoughts got more selfish. I wanted both and somehow just one."Come on, Sunshine, whatever's on your mind shouldn't cause yo

  • The Vampire King's Obsession    Chapter 216

    Dante's POVChristopher wrapped his hands around my waist and looked up at me."I didn't know Tate was going through all that. I feel like a bad friend for not realizing sooner. I wish I had," he mumbled, and I smiled, leaning down to kiss him."It's not your fault, you know. You would never have figured that out. You can't know everything about everyone. What matters is what you're doing now that you know." I stroked his hair and leaned down to kiss the top of his head."Doesn't Abyss Memorial have the best cancer research facility? Why don't we figure out a way to move her there?" he leaned away and looked up at me, an idea brewing in his mind."Sure. You can do anything you want. You have access to everything. You can build a new hospital from the ground up for her if you want," I smiled, and he rolled his eyes."I'll have you know that I have a pretty tight financial situation myself. I got a pretty good job, and I've been investing these past few months. I haven't had to spend an

    Christopher's POV I was making breakfast for myself. The house was finally quiet, as everyone had gone back to the coven's apartment building, which also doubled as the office building. The security on the building had been tightened up.Dante also implemented a new rule that no one could leave unless they were leaving in a group of ten. That way, they could attack and protect each other if need be.We were also going to move into the penthouse later this evening.The penthouse was on the top floor so we could all stay in there together.Dante was doing this because I asked that we move in there. I wanted a change of environment, but I also knew that asking him to move us somewhere far away from his coven wasn't ideal right now.So I settled for us moving into the same building with them.They had been working overtime this past week to update the security on the building.Manson and everyone on the tech team had been updating and fortifying the building.They were renovating the who

    Ashley's POV It had been a while since I could rest. I tried to ignore the fact for the most part but failed drastically. I had been here for so long that I had forgotten. I couldn't tell the time down here because time tangled together and got me confused. I missed my freedom, but not too much. I think I have him under control. He let me have some things in my room. After that night of me seducing him, I was finally able to get some things for myself. I had a TV placed in the room, but it didn't have any internet connection and all the shows were taped versions. It was better than not having anything. Even though he kept my chest up, I could tell that he cared about me in a way. He still turned the light on and off when he came to bring me my food, but I could tell it was because he was shy about it. I let him have his thing. I knew I was chipping away slowly. One day he would fold completely, and I would be there, standing with him at my beck and call. "Wake up," he spoke th

  • The Vampire King's Obsession    Chapter 213

    Dante's POVI liked the fact that he was jealous. I enjoyed him. Watching him get jealous over someone I didn't know and someone I still thought of as a threat was not only something that made me happy, but it felt great.I liked this new side of him. This possessive side of him."You know, I'm bored stuck in the house," he said as he sipped the cocktail I had made for him while staring out into the open."Well, where do you wanna go?" I asked him. I knew he had been stuck in the house for a while, and he'd probably want to go somewhere, and now that most of the threats were neutralized, maybe we could go somewhere.There was still Lucien and his accomplice, but for the most part, everything was fine."Do you think it's wise for us to start going out? Especially with all that happened these past months?" he asked, worried."It's no longer as dangerous as it was. The threat has reduced drastically. Of course, we still have to be careful, but the staff can resume using the office.""The
