"You've been so busy... when are we going on our first date?" Cara whined to Adonis with a childish pout on her face.His hands ceased their rapid typing, and he peered at her from below his nose, adjusted his glasses, and then turned back to his work."Soon.""You keep saying soon. Give me a specific date." She pressed further."I can't. I have a lot of work." He gestured to his laptop on the table."You always have a lot of work. Can't we just pick any day?" "How about next month?" "You said that last month.""Then next week?""You said that last week." She cried out. "You know what? Do what you want. I just want to spend time with you, but if you don't want that, that's fine." Cara huffed before taking a seat on one of the empty chairs.Adonis stopped his incessant typing. He rose and went to her."Fine. We can have our date tonight." Cara squealed, throwing her arms around him happily. It's been a few weeks since they started dating for real. A few weeks since Adonis was intro

Cara's POVMiss my timing, my foot! There was no way I was letting him leave without telling him.Adonis jumped to his feet immediately. "Get up, baby! We're going back." "But I have something to say. You've not heard me out!" I argued."Cara, there might be a coup at the mansion. We need to get back immediately. Leave the food. I'll get someone to pack it up later." He stalked back to the shrubs."Where are you going? Listen to me!" I watched him disappear before my eyes and followed after him. "Adonis," I called cautiously. "Where are you? If this is a joke, it is no longer funny." I heard nothing in reply.Did he abandon me here?"Adonis! Where are you? Adonis, come out here right now," I demanded, and the next thing I heard was an engine roaring to life.I screamed, stumbling back as I fell on my butt.They say be careful what you wish for.The noise increased as Adonis drove towards me on a badass motorbike."Climb." He yelled above the noise."You have a motorbike?" I sho

"Ah... you knew I survived?" Sebastien sighed dramatically. "You never cease to amaze me, Dimitri." Dimitri quietly studied his childhood friend.Except for the wonders of age, he hadn't changed a bit. A part of his mind had always bugged him that Sabestien might be alive somewhere. After all, he was the one who pulled the trigger and gave him a narrow escape.He had barely missed his heart."Do you know how long it took me to get back on my feet?" He continued with a snarl. "Do you know what I had to go through? I imagined the look on your face when I triumphantly take your crown. That—" He stomped his crutch on the ground, "—is the only reason I'm standing here today."Dimitri nodded in the head in resignation."It's understandable. But do you want to cause a reenactment of the past that should be forgotten? Where did it take us? We were once friends. Amico (friends) Sabestien." He urged, but Sebastian didn't have it.He had come with a lot of hatred and vengeance in his heart and

Cara's POV The last twenty-four hours have been hard... there was a chill in the atmosphere at the Bernardi mansion. At least to me.There had been an unusual quietness as opposed to the chattering since the death of Dimitri. It was like everyone had a mutual agreement to do it in his honour. Another intense stabbing pain erupted in my chest and my face scrunched up in discomfort.The previous battle had no direct effect on me, yet I had a lot of reasons for the throbbing ache; I didn't know which it was.Perhaps because of Dimitri's death, I'd come to care for the elderly man. He was, after all, the one person, the man I had feelings for, cared about. Or because I'd come to accept the family as mine, and when a family hurts, they all hurt together.Okay, it might be because I watched the entire scene play out that night. Adonis response to his grandfather being shot. The massive killings and decapitation. The pained look on Luca's face when Dimitri was being rushed to the hospita

Cara felt her heart being torn apart as the elevator slid closed. She fell to her knees, her throat closing up.So this was it? Adonis was really telling her to-Bang!A loud thud echoed, and she jumped to her feet as the elevator automatically slid open again."Adonis?"There he was, covered in cold sweats in a barely conscious state. The only reason he was still standing was due to the walls holding his weight.Her brows shot up and she ran towards him."Adonis, what's wrong?" Cara asked, but he could only let out a painful groan in reply, tightly shutting his eyes to ease his pain.Cara was in two minds. He was fine just a moment ago. Why was he suddenly acting like this? Her eyes followed the movement of his hand as it moved to rub at his forehead. "Are you having a headache? Should I call the doctor? Do you want to go to the hospital? Tell me what I should do." She fretted, extending her arms towards him, but he moved out of her hold and with great difficulty, Adonis gritted o
