“Good job.”, Zoey said as she threw her head back. “Thanks! These men don’t know what we’re capable of.”, the girl said. (Her voice sounds familiar…), Zoey thought to herself. Zoey looked back at the girl and frowned while tilting her head to one side. Her eyes widened in surprise to see the resemblance. “I’m Alexandra, but people just call me Alexa, what about you? What's your name?”, Alexa asked as she smiled warmly at Zoey. Zoey was shocked but soon regained her posture. “I’m Zoey, nice to meet you.”, Zoey stated as she shook Alexa’s hand. But before Zoey could pull her hand back, Alexa tugged on her hand gently as she looked at the ring on her finger and then back at Zoey confused. “Uhm…Is something wrong?”, Zoey asked awkwardly. “No…nothing is wrong. Would you like to meet up at a restaurant?”, Alexa asked Zoey as she gave her brightest and warmest smile ever. “Sure…?”, Zoey answered. The two girls exchanged their phone numbers and went their own ways. . . . “Hey, A

Damion’s POV Damn…I forgot how loud Zoey can scream if the chance was given. I rubbed my hand over my ear and squinted in pain. I can’t blame her though, it’s kind of shocking to find out that werewolves and vampires aren’t only in fairytales, but also in our daily lives. We might not just notice them. She’s kind of cute …Shit. No, it’s not. This is going to be harder than I thought it would. I can’t fall for Zoey again, every time I look at her…I feel like I’m sinning. The bond is broken…but it takes time to get over the feelings unless you meet your next mate. I don’t even know if my next mate will be able to fix this, even if I would even have one. I ran my hand through my hair as I tried to think of where her friends would be, so I could go back. Yes, I need to go back… The very first day I met Zoey…I realized that I was already trapped…and I was her mate and she was mine… The day that Alex told me that he bit her…I felt a tight tug on my heart. The bond was semi-broken…and all

Zoey’s POV I woke up to two familiar voices and I suddenly remembered what was going on, I tread lightly toward Alex but just before I could reach their distance, I heard Alexa talking which made me freeze. “Dad didn’t have a natural death.”, I overheard her saying as I leaned by the near wall. “He loved The Queen, but once he started to get too close to her, Queen Mary’s blood killed him. She didn’t know, but he could feel that he was getting sick. He knew, but stayed with her till his last breath because he loved her.” My eyes widened in shock as I clasped my hands over my mouth. “Does that mean she’s our…?”, Alex asked quietly, making me wait for Alexa’s response to whether we were siblings. “No, and that’s not the issue.”, she stated. “Alex. You either choose love or death, everything you’ve done to build this company from scratch, or your wife.” I waited for Alex to talk, but all I could was dead silence. Tears welled up in disappointment. It was like he was trying to decide

“Zoey, run.”, Damien softly said before he was pulled away. Zoey’s body went cold but she quickly reacted. She ran towards him, pulled him back quickly, and transformed into a vampire. Her long nails were able to through the rope and she grabbed Damien and ran away back rapidly into the house. “Alex! Alexa!”, she roared. They quickly ran towards the voice to see Damien lying in her arms and her transformation. Zoey looked pale and cold, the short nails she once had, had grown out, and her sweet voice became deeper and rough. “Alexa…go take Damien into the car. We’re splitting up, it’ll be safer for us this way.”, Alex demanded in a stern but calm voice, not leaving room for Alexa to protest. Alexa did as she was told, now leaving Alex and Zoey alone in the room. “Zoey…? I know you’re in there…You need to get a grip on yourself. We need to get out of here quickly.”, he stated as he took slow and light steps towards her, ignoring the attackers that were outside. As soon as he was

Zoey's POV I set my alarm up to wake me up extra early. It was going to be quite a day, I had to be prepared for anything and everything. Luckily after I came back to town I went to a nearby salon to do my hair. It looked quite untidy, it seems like everyone doesn't know who I am or even Alex. I need to ace this interview. "Because you never faked your personality like every other woman who threw themselves to me. Because you have a heart made of diamond and gold. You fight for what is right. That's what made me fall for you. You've stolen my heart at our first meeting, I just didn't know how to deal with it or what I was even dealing with. You made my life simpler.", Alex's words replay in my mind. I guess I need to follow this. I had a bath and brushed my teeth. I finally dressed up with black formal pants and a plum red satin blouse to go with it and black heels. I opened my hair after keeping it up for a long time, and it turned out wavy and put the chain around my neck. I app
