HAYDEN'S POV
I've grown so lonely and depressed ever since she left my late wife Azalea left this cruel world. She was my everything and my first love. She was the reason I felt excited when I opened my eyes though I never actually slept. But my life was filled with darkness. It was slowly consuming me little by little each day.
Her memories always led me to the first day I met her. We met for the first time. It feels just like yesterday.
I thought to myself as I rubbed my chiseled chin and gulped down the bottle of whisky.
My Azalea.
AUTHORS POV
Azalea Montana was a young lady with brown eyes and long brown hair. Today was going to be her third day of college and it was on a rainy day as she grasped her pink umbrella tightly.
Someone bumped into her and the umbrella got knocked out of her hands she was about to fall but strong firm hands held her by the waist.
The rain was pouring both of them.
Mm
Mm, mm
I know your favorite song
I hear it everyday
Whoever made your smile
Made it to get in my way
And every time you laugh
You make that little sound
It's just the hardest thing
To love you but not know how
So I spend all my nights in the dark and afraid
'Cause I've tried to forget you but these things just don't go away
I hate that you're perfect, perfect for me
If I didn't know better, then I would believe
We were made for each other, but I'd know the truth
You're no good for me, I'm no good for you
And I hate that you're perfect
You're perfect for me
I hate that you're perfect
You're perfect for me
What good are words when they always just get in our way
And it hurts the most just to know that you don't feel the same, the same
So sometimes I get down on my knees and I pray things will change
But life is what happens when things they don't work out our way, our way
So I spend all my nights in the dark and afraid, mm
'Cause I've tried to forget you but these things just don't go away, away
I hate that you're perfect, perfect for me
If I didn't know better, then I would believe
We were made for each other, but I'd know the truth
You're no good for me, I'm no good for you
And I hate that you're perfect
You're perfect for me (yeah, yeah, hey)
I hate that you're perfect
You're perfect for me
I hate that you're perfect
You're perfect for me
Azalea slowly opened her eyes as her lips slightly trembled. Her brown eyes met blue dark eyes as she took in his gorgeous appearance.
He had very dark hair when she blinked he smirked at her.
"Oh my gosh are you checking me out" Hayden teased Azalea's face turned red with anger she was furious.
Every boy in college knew very well that she had a short temper.
She narrowed her eyes at Hayden and released herself from his embrace: crossing her arms over her chest.
"Whatever gave you the idea that I was checking you out!" She snapped angrily and balled her hands into small fists clenching at both sides of her hips.
Hayden read her thoughts quietly and smiled to himself.
When he didn't say anything Azalea picked up her umbrella and pushed past Hayden on purpose.
"Angry bird much" he muttered under his breath and she stopped in her tracks.
She turned around and glared at him, dangerously sending daggers at him.
She looked pissed.
She scoffed and left.
Hayden smiled and ran his fingers through his messy dark hair and watched her disappear around the corner.
He sighed deeply and left.
He knew that they met for a reason Azalea belonged to him.
BACK TO HAYDEN'S POV
Her brown eyes were like a drug I couldn't get enough of. I knew I shouldn't get close to humans but I couldn't control myself.
I couldn't stay away from her.
It was like an addiction if love was poison I'd still drink because it was like an addiction.
Things changed for the better when I saved Azalea. A couple of guys were harassing me and I had to step in because they were Crossing their limits.
I remember beating them up so badly that they never went to college for three weeks straight.
Azalea had warmed up to me and we instantly became friends. We hung out more often and my feelings for her grew deeper.
I wanted us to be more than friends.
Six months later we started dating. I had finally managed to confess my true feelings to her and I was happy that she felt the same way.
On our graduation I proposed to her and she accepted my proposal and we eventually got married.
The vampire council was furious with me because I married a human. It was actually like a taboo here.
Humans were only considered as food to the council but Azalea meant more than to me.
She was my wife and my love.
The grand council banished me from the home I grew up in and my family supported my relationship with Azalea.
They were happy for us and they wouldn't let us fight this battle alone; they also lost the vampire world.
A month later Azalea got pregnant we were expecting our first child but unfortunately the pregnancy was taking a toll physically and emotionally.
She had lost a lot of weight and she often zoned out. My family assured me that she would be alright and she would make it along with the baby.
Let's just say vampire pregnancies were very complex and complicated and dangerous especially for mortals.
After eight months Azalea went into labor and she gave birth to a girl we decided to name her Theodora.
Azalea wasn't in a very good condition; she had lost a lot of blood and that got me worried I didn't want to lose her.
"You'll be fine my love" I said quietly while holding Azalea's hand. She gave me a weak smile and shook her head negatively.
"I can feel the hit Hayden I won't make. I've lost too much blood" she whispers softly.
" No," I said firmly.
I kissed her forehead.
" You'll make it Azalea and we'll raise our daughter together. I'll go get the doctor."
I left the room quietly.
After five minutes I came back with the doctor as he examined Azalea. Her eyes were closed, her skin was a ghostly pale white she looked like she was peacefully sleeping.
"I'm sorry Mr. Willford I'm afraid we've lost her" the doctor said quietly and left.
I was in shock.
I sat beside her and cupped both of her cheeks.
"Honey please wake up..." I whispered.
But she never responded.
"No, no, no, you can't close your eyes right now!"
"Please don't leave me. "
" Stay."
The nurse covered her with the white bedsheets.
" You can't leave Theodora without a mother..."
I slumped to the floor.
The love of my life was gone.
"There was still hope if I just got the healer he would bring her back…"
I grabbed my car keys and left the hospital. I got into the car driving at full speed as I gulped down the alcohol.
I rubbed my eyes as headlights flashed but it was too late my car collided with another vehicle. I remember glass being shattered and everything went black.
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Love's my religion but he was my faith
Something so sacred so hard to replace
Fallin' for him was like fallin' from grace
All wrapped in one he was so many sins
Would have done anything, everything for him
And if you ask me I would do it again
No need to imagine
'Cause I know it's true
They say, "All good boys go to heaven"
But bad boys bring heaven to you
It's automatic
It's just what they do
They say, "All good boys go to heaven"
But bad boys bring heaven to you
You don't realize the power they have
Until they leave you and you want them back
Nothing in this world prepares you for that
I'm not ashamed that he wasn't the one
Had no idea what we would become
There's no regrets I just thought it was fun
No need to imagine
'Cause I know it's true
They say, "All good boys go to heaven"
But bad boys bring heaven to you
It's automatic
It's just what they do
They say, "All good boys go to heaven"
But bad boys bring heaven to you
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
I still remember the moment we met
The touch that he planted, the garden he left
I guess the rain was just half that effect
No need to imagine
'Cause I know it's true
They say, "All good boys go to heaven"
But bad boys bring heaven to you
It's automatic
It's just what they do
They say, "All good boys go to heaven"
But bad boys bring heaven to you
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Not everything our loved ones tell us is true. Sometimes they have shitty secrets from the past and try by all means to keep that secret but sooner or later it will be exposed.VERONA'S POV (ELIZABETH'S MOM)FLASH BACKI left Elizabeth eating her breakfast when I arrived at my room. I closed the door behind me.My phone rang and stared at the caller ID anxiously. I took a deep breath and answered the phone call."I've been trying your number all day" the other person on the other end scolded.And I sighed deeply." Anyway forget maybe you don't care about Leah."I shook my head negatively." I care about my daughter, how is she doing?" I asked curiously."I know it's been years and she belongs to another family. She'll never acknowledge me as her mother. Bu
ELIZABETH'S POVMy hand twitched painfully when it connects with his cheek.Ouch.I winced and stormed away his face was hard as a freaking rock. I met Selena in the hallway when she saw she let out a small shocking gasp."OMG Elizabeth what happened?"I sighed deeply.And she followed me to the bathroom.
HAYDEN'S POVIt's been a week now every time I ask Crystal about what she planned she didn't want to tell me. If it's this much time I'm sure it must be something awful. I had nothing against Elizabeth and I didn't want to hurt her physically.I just wanted to make her life at school a bit unbearable and if Crystal was going to cross that line I don't think I want to be part of this plan at all.I had a bad feeling about this. I could definitely feel it in my gut and I couldn't ignore it any longer.ELIZABETH'S POVI was surprised that Hayden hadn't bugged me ever since Dylan explained to me that he had a nice talk with him.Instead of being happy I had a bad feeling that kept nagging me not to go home or leave the school premises alone.I went to the library to clear my head a bit, humming to myself quietly.The librarian gave me a cold
HAYDEN'S POVFive hours later the doctor had informed that Elizabeth was fully awake but in bad shape.I ignored his warning and barged in like a wild animal.I spotted Elizabeth sitting on the bed she had curled into a ball. Her head buried in her lap she was sobbing uncontrollably.Guilt sliced through me like a sharp knife.I needed to make sure that she was okay.I reached out to touch her.Once my hand made contact with her skin her head immediately jerked up in alertness."Don't touch me!" She screamed.Her lips were trembling.It was all fault."Please don't hurt me..."I backed away as guilt consumed me whole. I recalled Crystal's words."I'll teach her a lesson, leave the planning to me."When Elizabeth started having a panic attack three n
A few weeks later Doctor Anthony had kept a close eye on Elizabeth monitoring her reaction 24/7.He noticed that she was very unhappy at the hospital so he had suggested that she should be discharged and taken home in order to recover quickly.That afternoon Elizabeth was put under heavy medication to help her calm her nerves. Doctor Anthony gave Verona injections containing Elizabeth's medication.Hayden had kept his distance and he stayed away from Elizabeth but guilt always ate him up.He couldn't face her after everything that had happened.Verona was summoned by doctor Anthony and he wanted to discuss Elizabeth's condition."Give her these injections when she starts having seizures it will help calm her down."" But if there's any emergency don't hesitate to call me and visit the hospital once a week with Elizabeth I'll need to give her a check."
A month later Elizabeth started attending therapy. Bit by bit she started getting better but unfortunately she suffered from a series of nightmares due to the terrible incident.Dead bodies of Mark,Jerry and Andrew were found in the woods. The sight of them was very unpleasant.The police assumed it was the wild animals that might have attacked but only Hayden and Elizabeth knew the real truth behind their deaths.A party was held in order to welcome Elizabeth. The college was very supportive and she was very happy.She wore a black lace mini dress that exposed her back paired off with black heels. Hayden was also at the party but as usual he kept ignoring her.They had bumped into each other a few times but he kept his distance"Hayden wait."He turned around and faced her."Dance with me please."
When it was night time Elizabeth used her hair pins to unlock the door.She saw this in a movie by the way and she thought it would be cool if she tried lucky for her it worked.She tossed the locks aside and checked the Streets before opening the door once the coast was clear she opened the door and little Bingo ran past her.The little husky was very excited.Elizabeth turned on her flashlight and began to explore the mysterious house.She quitely closed the door behind her.And released the breath she was holding suddenly invading Hayden's personal space felt wrong.It felt wrong but she couldn't resist the temptation she needed to found out what Hayden was hiding.She opened the door not knowing that it was Hayden's bedroom little Bingo barked and ran past her into the room.The pup knocked down a photo and it fell to the ground causi
Elizabeth was shattered when she recalled Haydens cruel words.He hated her because she looked like his late wife Azalea.But that wasn't her fault and she had no idea that she had a look alike.Once she was home she was determined to find out the truth.She went to her mother's bedroom and started searching for clues.When all hope was lost she came across a photo album and dairy but it wasn't her.It was written in bold letters AZALEA.Azalea wasn't her look alike she was her twin sister.
