Chapter 32Clarissa POVMy day was spent horribly since I couldn't even concentrate at work. I got a call from Miguel when I got to work this morning, and he told me he had something to take care of, so he wouldn't be present in the office, which made my day more boring.After spending the whole day behind my desk, it was finally closing time, and just before I walk out of my office to head home, my phone suddenly starts ringing, and I stop to answer the call."Hey, it's me, Alex," his familiar voice sounds from the other end, and realization dawn on me that I haven't really thanked him for the favor he did for me yesterday. My mind has been so occupied with so many thoughts that I couldn't even think of anything else."Hey," I reply to him as I walk briskly toward the elevator."So, what do you say about the ice cream date tonight? You can't say no," His voice sounds from the other end, and I sigh briefly. I don't know why he is insisting that we go on this date, but I just hope he's

Chapter 34Clarissa POV "Ugh! I told you I wasn't coming out here," I whine tiredly as I drag my feet behind Charity. We have been going around all day, from restaurant to amusement park, to ice cream joint, and we are heading to the motor park to do nothing. I should've just gone to the office earlier, and not bothered to take the day off."Come on, we've been having fun, isn't it?" She turns to roll her eyes at me before she turns her gaze away and stretches her hands, throwing her head back."Fuck Mason... That dude is a bastard, and I won't think of him again," She screams out, probably to feel better, but deep inside me, I know she will still talk about missing him later, so what is the point of believing her?"What should I do, Clarissa?" She suddenly stops and turns to face me, her eyes glistening with tears, and I roll my eyes. I knew it."I thought you were not going to think about him again? How come you are crying now?" I scoff before I walk past her."It's not my fault, C

Chapter 36Alpha Miguel POV'The grim reapers are after her for a reason you should find out by yourself. It'll be dangerous if they lay their hands on her. It's going to be a disaster if they should get a hold of her' those are the words Draco, whom I thought came to hurt me, instead, he came to warn me to protect my woman. I have been feeling danger lurking around her since then, and although I do not know what they want from her, I'm scared she would get hurt. Now, I'm torn between staying away from her so she can be free from getting harmed by my curse, and also keeping her by my side so she won't get harmed by those grim reapers, and it's really crazy.She must be confused after what happened yesterday, but too bad that I can't even talk to her about it, even though I want to do it. "Are you ok?" Hearing Axel's voice, I turn to see him walking inside the garden with his hands tucked inside his pockets."Hmm, I'm fine," I turn my gaze away to continue to stare at the beautiful fl

Chapter 38Clarissa POVI watch as he stares at me, I can see that he is thinking something, but I wish to know what it is that he is thinking at this moment. As I wait for him to give me the answer I want to hear, I pray silently that this isn't true. I can't imagine myself being a partner with those scary creatures if he is one. It will be the end of our relationship if he should tell me that he is really one, and I will forever stay away from him. "Are you kidding me?" He suddenly chuckles as he reclines in his chair."You must've been watching too many horror movies, or reading too many fantasies. Those creatures... I don't think they exist," He shrugs his shoulders, and I bite my bottom lip. I know what I saw wasn't imagination. I really saw that creature, and the dream too, they all make me feel like something is off."What about what you told me? You said that I should leave the bus and that it was dangerous. How did you know that? What did you mean by that?" I ask him, and he

Chapter 40Charity POVA dead silence plays in the atmosphere as I sit in front of him in his office, fondling with my fingers. I didn't know I would run into him here again. I thought he just came here to publish his book too, but heck! He is the CEO of the company. Wow! Now, I just experienced another epic scene I've written in my book, where the female lead would run into the CEO a few times and won't even know that he owns the company. I feel like a female lead right now, and my prince charming male lead sitting in front of me."Can you get yourself together, Charity? You are in trouble, and that is all you can think of?" My subconscious mind reminds me of my madness, and I can only admit that I'm really not getting a hang of my sanity anymore."Uhm... Sorry, you had to see that... But, come to think of it, don't you think your editors here are all out of their minds, and incompetent fools?" He raises his eyebrows, and I realize the shit I just spilled. I am in a trouble already,
