《The Devil's Thirst Trap》全部章節：第 31 章 - 第 40 章

Zoey’s Pov I leaned in with my head in my hands with was against the desk. I used one hand to play with my pen. What the hell is wrong with him? One minute he’s okay, the next minute he’s so cruel! I wonder how Damien managed to deal with this crap, I feel sorry for him now. Oh shit! Damien! I forgot about him and Alexa, I need to find him quickly. Just then, the alarm on my cell phone rang. Good. It was finally time to go home! I started to pack everything quickly and silently after my long day of work, avoiding my husband, heh. As soon as I finished I held my bag and stretched my arms out while walking to the elevator, yawning. Just before I could press the employee's elevator button, I saw an arm reaching from behind me and pressing the button. I turned around in shock to see that it was Alex. What the hell does he want from me now? I internally groaned in frustration, anger, and tiredness. This is one shitty day… He looked straight ahead, not daring to meet my gaze. As soon as

Zoey’s Pov I yanked my hand with a strong force from Damien after our encounter with Alex. “What the hell, Damien?! Why did you do that? Do you know how it’s going to reflect on me? I’m not going to be able to get Alexa back for you if you keep interfering.”, I yelled at him. But all Damien did was keep his head down and he was silent. Then I puzzled it up together and covered my mouth in shock. “T-that….wasn’t a lie….was it…?”, I asked softly as I could feel tears trickle down my face. “It's not…I’m so sorry Zoey-” “NO! You don’t get to act like that! I..I…I can’t live without Alex! How long did you even know this for?”, I questioned him as I wiped the tears off my face and cut him off from talking. “After you erased memories….you reset the bond again too…”, he said. “Wait…’reset’? What the hell…are you telling me that we were-” “Yes, Zoey. You’re my mate, that’s how I was able to remember everything, because of the bond.”, Damien huffed as he ran a hand through his hair. I

Zoey’s Pov “What will you choose?”, Edward questioned Zoey. I remained speechless until I finally had the courage to speak up. “Fine…you caught me. I would like to work would you guys to take these monsters down.”, I stated as I stood up. “Great. Let’s get you ready.”, Edward stated as he stood up. Edward started to walk in a direction that seemed like an elevator and he pressed the button while Sabrina decided to stay behind. “Follow me.”, Edward said to me as the elevator door opened. I quickly followed Edward into the elevator before it could close on me. “So where are we going?”, I asked curiously. “We’re going to see your new suit, are you ready?”, Edward stated. I nodded with a bright smile on my face. I had to hide the fact that I was terrified, I can’t give in to Edward and let him know how I feel. The elevator doors slid open and they exited the elevator. I stepped outside before Edward could so I could seem excited. I kept walking forward until something interesti

The sound of heels echoed throughout the passage. {“Who killed my mother?”, Zoey asked one more time. “Alexander Griffin.”, Edward stated as he handed her the file.} She thought of what Edward told her the other night as she sat back and was given a blood transfusion, it took a long time for her body to get used to the blood transfusion. Flashback “Why did a millionaire kill my mother?” Zoey asked after reading Alex’s file and handing it back to Edward. “That’s what your father wanted to know too.”, Edward stated as he pressed his palm against the wall, opening the passage again. “What stopped him?”, she asked as she followed closely behind him. Edward took some time as he was hesitant to respond at first. “You. He could not dive deeper into the situation in case you get hurt. He made a big sacrifice and that’s where I come in. I want to fulfill what he couldn’t do and make the two of you proud.”, Edward stated. “If I suggest you help me, he would never allow that.” “I guess

“You’re fired.”, Alex stated. Zoey’s bright smile dropped as her mind slowly started to comprehend the words her boss just said. “W….what…?”, Zoey’s voice broke. “You. Are. Fired.”, Alex said with every step he took forward toward her. “Do you understand it now or do I need to teach you what I have just told you?”, Alex asked as he bent down to her level and whispered in her ear. Zoey took a deep breath as her fists started to curl up and her anger began to build up. “I would like it if we could discuss this properly in your office, Mr. Griffin.”, Zoey stated, everyone looked at her shocked that she would do something like that. Alex smirked and looked at the people whose jaws were open. “Sure.”, he said. . . . Alex and Zoey sat in several minutes of silence until she made her move. She stood up and walked over to him, sitting on his lap. Alex swallowed his spit while she smirked at his nervousness. “Get off up my lap right.”, Alex demanded as his fists curled up, not dari
