Alex and Zoey walked in together into Steven’s winery. “Welcome guys!”, Steven exclaimed as he greeted them with open arms. He walked over to Zoey and kissed her knuckles gently, Alex clenched at the site but he couldn’t understand why. Steven then gave him a man hug. “And who may this be?”, Steven asked as he looked over to Zoey who was now looking around the place amazed. “Zoey. Is my assistant.”, Alex emphasized her name which grabbed her attention. “Zoey, why don’t you wait here and check out the place while I discuss business with Steven?”, Alex asked which sounded like a command, not giving her room to argue. She nodded. As soon as Alex and Steven left, she rolled her eyes in annoyance. “Devil…”, she muttered under her breath and decided to take a look at Steven’s finest wine collection. Zoey walked passed all the collection but something caught her attention, making her stop and turn her head. Her eyebrows furrowed in confusion. “Huh…”, she muttered under her breath. Z

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 walked out of the office in confusion. The way Damien looked at me…he clearly remembered, but how? It doesn’t make sense at all. I decided to go to the restroom, I leaned against the sink and looked at my reflection, clearly, the shock was seen on my face, I just hope that Alex didn’t catch me. I opened the tap and sprinkled some water on my face, then I used a handtowel to wipe it off, luckily, the makeup didn’t smudge. I need to figure out what the hell is going on. Before I could leave the restroom, I heard the door opening and it is locked by someone. I turned my head to see it was Damien. I waited for him to talk first, in case he might not remember me. “Don’t worry, Zoey. I remember you.”, he stated. “Thank goodness…”, I said as I sighed in relief. I ran to him and hugged him tightly. He seemed hesitant at first, but he hugged me back. “How have you been? How do you remember? I don’t understand what I did anymore, it’s all getting confusing.”, I said all in one

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

Alex heard Sabrina’s voice and tried to hide the trace of Zoey quickly. He wanted to sort out one problem at a time. “Hey honey!”, Sabrina exclaimed as she gave him a hug and slurred her voice. Alex rolled his eyes while they hugged. “Sabrina, we need to talk.”, Alex stated as he pulled away from the hug. “Sure thing, honey.”, Sabrina stated as her eyes landed on Zoey’s chain that was left behind. Alex ushered her to sit down. “I want to cancel this engagement.”, he stated. Sabrina’s eyes widened in shock. “It’s because of that stupid personal assistant of yours, isn’t it?”, Sabrina scoffed and walked into Alex’s bedroom. “Where is she?!”, she yelled. “She took leave for the rest of the day.” But Alex just sat there on his couch and pinched the bridge of his nose. “Look, I’m really sorry about all of this Sabrina, and it’s not because of that assistant, I think I’ve just rushed into the marriage process. I need to clear my mind, there’s too much going on right now.”, Alex sa

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

“Argh…”, Zoey grunted as she opened her eyes slowly. Her eyes adjusted to a bright light and voices around from everywhere. “Easy, ma’am. Do you know who you are?”, a man in blue scrubs and a white coat to complement the look “Wh-what’s going on…?”, Zoey questioned as she woke up slowly and held her head in her hands. “Ma’am, you have been in a car accident, it’s best if you take a rest after answering some questions for us.”, the doctor stated. Zoey nodded. “Do you know what your name is?”, the doctor asked. “Of course, I’m….”, Zoey frowned as cleared her throat. “I’m Zoey.”, she stated. “Good. Do you know where you are at the moment?”, the doctor questioned. “Yes, I’m in a hospital.”, she said. “And lastly…do you know which year this is?”, the doctor asked. “Yeah, it’s 2015.”, Zoey said confidently. The doctor and the nurse exchanged worried looks. “What’s going on…?”, Zoey asked. “Well…you’ve been in a car accident, there was a truck that hit you while you were drivin

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

Alex’s Pov I pinched the bridge of my nose as Zoey walked out of my office. Why was she so angry at me? Did I do something wrong? What did I do wrong? Women are so confusing! I huffed out in annoyance and changed my shirt. As I did so, my cell phone’s notification rang off. I picked it up as I put the tie around my neck with the other hand. I unlocked it and found that it was Damien who was messaging me. I opened it and placed my phone back on the bed as I adjusted my tie. I picked up the phone again and walked to my office desk to get started with work. Especially with Zoey’s sudden disappearance, I’ve lost track of my work schedule, but from what it seems like…there’s no happy ending for us as yet. Zoey’s hiding something from me. I opened the message that Damien sent me and to my expectation, I wasn’t surprised. I know Edward was the guy involved in the project of vampire hunting, but knowing him and working with him, he’s the type to follow orders, not make them. So there’s cl

“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
