Xander's POV..'How do I begin?' he asked in his mind. He knew exactly how he felt, that his world was unbearable at the moment but putting it into words was a whole different story. Griff crossed his arms expectantly, tilting his head to the side, jaw clenched giving him a hardened glare.Was it too late to change his mind? Griff was going to really enjoy this.. "Okay, uhm, what I'm about to say happened to a friend of mine", he lied. If he distanced himself from the situation then he wouldn't be placing himself in a vulnerable position. Especially with Griff. He knew that if he told the truth, Griff would find a way of blackmailing him with it."Xander, I'm your only friend", Griff corrected him"."That's not true", he defended himself, not wanting to give up on his story."Really? What are their names?"Griff asked, skepticism written all over his face" I met them in the human realm and notice how I said them. There's Joe, Emma and what's his name? Ah yes, Owen".Aw man, how had h

Helena's POV…Morning came and she could hear its sounds disturbing her ears and her eyes few open because she knew she was in trouble. She raced past the lounge, swung the door open before entering the empty hallway.She needed to find Lexy!Her eyes searched the empty space and her desperation grew. Lexy hadn't told her how to find her."Are you looking for me?" Lexy's smooth voice came from right next to her and she jumped again."Lex, how do you keep doing that??""Doing what?""The way you just appear like that? Anyways I need to talk to you like asap!" She took hold of Lexy' s wrist and pulled her inside her room. Lexy was now dressed in a cute, just above the knee black flared dress and high heeled sandals."You need to get me to a pharmacy! Please, it's urgent!" Helena begged, feeling heat rushing to her face. It had been what? Just over 24 hours so she still had time."What's a pharmacy?" Lexy asked innocently "You know, the place where you buy meds when you're sick? Do you

Xander's POv..He entered his truck and pulled out of the parking lot. Thanks to Griff, he couldn't use his powers because of the cameras that had started stalking him. After dodging a few cars on the freeway, his eyes glanced at the rearview mirror and he noticed at least six vehicles trailing after him."I'll pay you back for this!" he muttered, already hatching a plan for Griff.He turned left into the exit, passed a few roads then turned left again into the palace gates. The cars behind him stopped their pursuit at the entrance and he watched them disembarking and taking pictures.Whatever he had to do today must be done in complete secrecy because the last thing he wanted right now was for Helena's picture to be taken and splashed all over the news. 'Dudum dudum dudum', he could hear her continuous heartbeat and his being became excited. Even though there were some unresolved issues, seeing her again wouldn't be so bad. He stepped out of the truck and saw Gerald coming to mee

Xander's POV..He moved his laptop away to allow her access as she made her way to him. If she was offering then who was he to refuse? Tomorrow would deal with itself later but for now he was going to show no mercy.His hand reached out to her and as soon as he touched her, she disintegrated and varnished before his eyes."Argh!" he complained, lifting up his arm and combing through his hair. His being was punishing him for rejecting Geralds call. He now had half the mind to just go to her and spend the night. Was she going through the same? Savannah should be awakening in a few days and once that happened, nothing in this existence could stop them from fucking.The rest of the night was spent going from one dream to another, all having one naked person in common. Helena.Why was he punishing himself when he could just swallow his pride and go to her? It's not like he could just get another woman to relieve himself. She was his curse and it was either het or noone else.He got out of be

Helena's POV….Even though she had countless gowns in her closet, Lexy insisted on them going shopping. They tried on many different types of stunning dresses and in the end she settled for a simple and elegant long dress with a slit in the middle while Lexy went for the long, red, femme fatale look with an open back."Do you think we should check on Roselyn?" Helena asked and Lexy rolled her eyes."Do as you wish," she answered uninterested.Helena took out the phone that Lexy had bought for her then dialled Roselyn's number. The phone rang many times before going to voicemail." Roselyn, hi, it's Helena. I've gone shopping with Lex for the prince's party tonight. We are now headed for the hair salon to get our hair and make up done, so if you want to join us, just come over".Roselyn didn't call back and she didn't come either so they completed the rest of the day without her. Night time came and the two of them headed for the ballrooms section of the palace.Glass double doors ope
