Stephanie Wilde (P.O.V.)I watched as he walked out of the office, and I could not help but feel a pang of jealousy. My stomach was in knots, and I wanted to lock myself in a dark room and cry my eyes out. How could he not see that I would do anything for him? I was willing to put my feelings aside for him, just so he could have the best of both worlds. Every time we made love, I would enjoy all of him and be grateful for the moment and the time he chose to spend with me, but then when the bliss is over, I think to myself that after all of this, he will be going home to his mate.We have not met yet and honestly; I was anticipating the moment that we do. Ever since that night when she gruesomely murdered my best friend, I promised myself that I would seek vengeance for her. I was not certain if Alessandro remembered anything about that night, but I did not mention to him that she had seen my face. I mean she was pretty out of it after we gave her a sho

Alessandro Petrov (P.O.V.)“Oops! I am sorry.” She bit her lip again and smiled sheepishly at me. This time I chose to ignore it and look away so that I did not end up doing anything she did not want me to at the moment.“We could leave at seven and see a movie at eight then have dinner after that. Or would you prefer to watch a movie first?” I scratched the back of my head nervously. I really did not know how these things went.“Hmm, well usually all of the good movies show late at night but restaurants do not necessarily stay open for dining so I think a movie first and then we can explore Los Angeles together and hunt for food. That sounds fun.” She exclaimed and I chuckled.“That is a great idea indeed. Well, I will leave you to choose a movie on the website while I relax for a bit.” I said and took a seat next to her.I watched closely as she unlocked her phone and I quickly glan

Alveric Valentine (P.O.V.) Ever since I got back to the morgue, I have been working and preparing to perform the ritual on Dimitri so that he would no longer be cursed. I got to see firsthand how much it affected him and I felt pressured to work even faster because the intervals at which it kept occurring were becoming shorter every day. Even on days when he would not mention Adelina or the reincarnated Goddess, I guess his mind still wandered off to places it should not be and so this caused him to trigger the curse and he would be in excruciating pain for hours.At this point, due to the reoccurring incidents, he has become rather suicidal, and I was forced to strap him to one of the metal tables at the morgue. Unfortunately, I “accidentally” put him next to the recovering bodies, so he had no other choice but to think of the foul scents instead of thinking about Adelina and Isla. It was an evil plan but also a genius one.On that

This time I turned on some music. I really did not want my good mood to dampen.I think Alessandro said something else, but I really could not be bothered to pause the music. My God-complex was acting up.I grabbed the nose ring and pushed it through the tiny hole on my nostril which was almost healed. I bled a little, I screamed a little, but I got it through, so I did not care. I cleaned up the blood and went on to put on my outfit.I looked at myself in the mirror and realized I was THAT b*tch. My a*s looked amazing, and the skirt complimented my thighs perfectly.I looked at the new shoe collection I had and pondered on what I should wear. Of course, I went with the thigh-high black suede high heel boots.I walked over to the full-length mirror and did a full spin in the mirror as I checked myself out. If no one would date me then I certainly would.Damn!I grabbed my phone and took a few pictures. I change my Instagram privacy se

Recap…“I-I am sorry.” I started before she cut me off.“No, you are not. You are sorry you got caught. That is about it.” Alessandro Petrov (P.O.V.)All I could do right now is to bow my head in shame. I did not know what to say. I was speechless. Many thoughts were racing through my head, and it was becoming overwhelming.While my head remained bent down as I stared blankly at my lap, I could hear the waiter return with Isla’s food. I could hear her immediately unwrapping her meal and eating it. I do not think she cared to fill the silence between us which was quickly becoming awkward.I slowly lifted my head to look at her, only to see that while she was eating, she was staring at me questioningly.“Are you not upset?” I asked her because she seemed rather calm and collected.“No, because I am not surprised.” She said si
