Leah's POVJust when I thought that my entire life would end on that day, I heard a loud voice -"Leave Leah alone!"Darren?! It's Darren's voice!I lifted my eyes and saw my reflection in the mirror. I saw the image of Darren jumping at Gaspard and gripping his neck.The hands that supported me immediately loosed, because Gaspard shifted backward.

Leah's POV"Are you sure about it, Leah?" Jalin asked."Yeah..." I nodded my head, feeling exhausted.Jalin said quietly next to me. His gaze fixed on the wall, contemplating, as if he had just stumbled upon a secret that had eluded him for a long time. I could tell his mind was racing with the implications of what I just told him."Jalin... What's going on?" I lifted my head to look at him.His chiseled jawline blocked
Leah's POVI turned around to face him, and I could see the pain in his eyes.I couldn't take it anymore."Finn, don't do this to me," I said, trying to keep my voice steady. "I don't know who you are. I don't know what has happened to you. I don't know who has sent you to me. But one thing I do know is that I will never ever hurt you.""I know, Leah," Finn said in a quiet voice."But I can't trust you if you don't tell
Leah's POVAs I woke up, I couldn't find Finn anywhere around me.I rubbed my eyes, put on some clothes, and walked out of the warehouse.As the sun began its slow descent behind the distant mountains, the shimmering waters of the lake seemed to come alive with a brilliant golden light.The ripples on the surface danced in a gentle, rhythmic motion, reflecting the vibrant hues of the surrounding flora.The air was fille

Leah's POV Just when I was trying so hard to process this, my phone buzzed. An unknown number. Feeling disturbed, I picked up my phone. "Hey, Leah! It's Damian! Do you remember me? I'm the delivery guy from Mediland!" "Oh, yes. Sure. Damian! I haven't heard from you for a long time. Is everything OK with you?" Damian's voice sounded full of energy, "Yeah! Uma finally agrees to give me some days off, and I'm in town now! I don't know anyone in Skagen City, so I thought to myself, why not give you a call and ask you out for dinner?" I hesitated and said, "Listen, Damian, I really want to go out with you tonight. It's just I've been caught up with something and I really can't.." "Oh, OK. I totally understand." Damian's voice sounded disappointed. He wasn't the kind of person who was able to conceal his true feelings. "It's OK. I feel ashamed for calling you. What's on my mind? Calling you just like this. I'm so sorry. I'm hanging up right now..." "No... No! Damian! Don't hang up!
Leah's POV Damian stood tall. His posture was strong and confident. As we hit the dance floor, he took a step forward, extending his arm towards me. I stood before him with my eyes fixed on his. I was wearing a flowing red dress that accentuates the curves of my body.

He moved with precision and grace with his feet gliding across the floor as if in a trance. I had no other option but to follow his lead. To my surprise, my body was perfectly in sync with his. That
