Ella - POV My cab driver dropped me off at the interview venue amidst the rush and bustle of the streets and the towering skyscrapers. I stood at the entryway, feeling palpable nervousness as I prepared for the interview with a major corporation. After working for a subpar firm for four years, I finally had the opportunity to interview for a top position at a high-profile company. Just as I arrived, my phone rang, and I saw my father's number on the caller ID. I answered the call before entering the interview. "Princess, it seems you have reached your destination," my father said. "Dad, please stop referring to me as a princess. I am 25 years old, for goodness' sake," I grumbled. "It doesn't matter how old you become, you will always be my princess. Did you get anything to eat? I'm sure you didn't, so I put some sandwiches into your bag," he responded. "Dad, until I finish this interview, I won't be able to eat, and I'm determined to get a job with this firm," I replied. This job

Ella - POV "Are you engaged?" Mr. Miller's voice rose, brimming with a mix of fury and jealousy. His firm grip on my hand tightened. I wriggled, trying to break free, but his grasp was unyielding. "Mr. Miller, are you blind? Can't you see the ring on my finger? Of course, I'm engaged," I retorted. His eyes widened at my response, and the hazel color of his irises flickered to a golden tint. Was it just a trick of the light, or had I imagined it? I gasped. The sudden shift in the room's atmosphere took me aback. Releasing my hand abruptly, Mr. Miller stood up, adjusted his suit, and spoke with feigned normalcy. "Congratulations, Miss Hart." His words echoed in the room as he made his way out, leaving me alone to ponder his strange behavior. "What was that all about?" I muttered to myself. The enigma that was Mr. Miller was beginning to become too complicated. I thought the time might have changed Darcus Miller, but it seemed like he was still the same arrogant person. I slumped into

Ella - POV The message from an unknown number startled me, urging me to step outside and check my mailbox, which I did, but it turned out to be empty. Ignoring the text, I placed my phone on the table, wondering who could be telling me such a cruel joke. With only a few close friends, imagining who would attempt such a trick was hard. But amidst my confusion, one person stood out as someone I could always rely on in tough times: my best buddy, Hana. I felt a presence behind me while washing a cup in the kitchen sink. I turned around to find Hana holding the mug. "I'll take care of that cup while you get some rest," I said in a low tone. "Ella, it's impossible for me to sleep when everything in my life has turned upside down. I was completely unaware that Luke would do something like this to me. I accepted his illogical explanation and placed my total confidence in him. And you know what, Ella? I am pregnant with his kid. When I went to tell Luke, I saw him making out with a female c

Ella - POV Ella _ POV "Darcus, what on earth are you doing? Why did you kiss me?" I exclaimed in frustration. Mr. Miller and Hazel stood there, devoid of emotion, their stances rigid. Finally, I approached and slapped him across the face, only to gasp in agony as my palm struck his hard, unyielding face. "Are you all right, Ella?" Mr. Miller's voice held an undercurrent of concern as I cradled my injured hand. How could slapping a human cause such excruciating pain? Is he a human or a vampire? What am I even thinking right now? Mr. Miller walked over to me and examined the palm of my hand. He halted his steps as I instinctively moved back. "You forcibly kissed me, Mr. Miller, and now you're concerned about my well-being. I am an engaged woman. How could you do that?" I snarled through the agony. Seeing my struggle, Mr. Miller proceeded to the desk and retrieved a first aid kit, grabbing my right hand and forcing me to sit on the sofa against my will. "Please, do not touch me, Mr.

Ella - POV "I don't understand what's going on, Ella," asked my dad. I didn't respond to my dad's words because I wanted to chase Mr. Miller away. As I marched towards the door, I snatched my phone from Mr. Miller's grasp. Just as I was about to slam the door in his face, Mr. Miller stopped me and stormed inside. I gave Mr. Miller a disapproving frown, while Dad maintained a bewildered expression. Hana and Luke stopped squabbling and stared at me. Mr. Miller knew my father was completely unaware that his company employed me. "I apologize for barging in like this, but I need to clarify things, Mr. Hart. I believed, Ms. Hart, that you always spoke the truth, but I was mistaken." I felt the weight of my father's gaze upon me, and the guilt building up inside me surfaced. "Mr. Miller, are you getting involved in an issue that has nothing to do with you?" I inquired firmly. "Could you both please stop arguing and explain what is happening in this room?" Dad yelled sarcastically. "We ar
