(RALPH'S POINT OF VIEW)"He has gone nuts!" I clamored as soon as Rhys appeared beside me at the top of a construction building. "He thinks he has a soulmate, and that's utter bullshit. He doesn't even have a soul or a life like other humans; how can he have what they have?" I chuckled bitterly. "He's human, Ralph. No matter what or who he was in a previous life, he is now a regular person who thinks everyone has guardian angels and soulmates. You claim to be his angel, so he believes he, like everyone else, has a soulmate." Rhys shrugged as he crossed his arms across his chest."But he doesn't have a soulmate. If he has one, there is no way he will fall in love with me, no way I will have his heart and no way I will get my memories back.""Perhaps this is a sign that you should abandon your plan to give his heart to that father of ours."I gave Rhys a sharp look with my jaw clenched in sudden anger that he was provoking. "Will you then tell me what happened that caused me to sleep

(RALPH'S POINT OF VIEW)Fortunately for Kai, his so-called soulmate was a human who, from what I could see as he entered the restaurant on a Saturday, was neither unique nor out of the ordinary. He was just a regular guy in his early 20s, nothing special, nothing to write home about, and he was not even all that attractive, yet Kai looked at him with the kind of love that he could gaze upon for the rest of his life.Humans and their nonsense about having a soulmate. It had nothing unique about it.“You have some seriously dark wrist veins, damn. That tray would cease to be a tray if you squeezed it any tighter.”Humans never sneak up on me, and this was a first as I jolted back to reality and threw a sharp glare at Reuben, who was standing beside me on the other side of the main counter, watching the disgusting scene of Kai smiling with another man, someone who wasn't me. He wasn't allowed to be that happy.His so-called soulmate walked in a few minutes ago, and luckily for him, Kai w

(KAI'S POINT OF VIEW)Ralph now had a distinct air about him. I mean, there was a lot different about him since he claimed to be a saint but did not act like one, but I noticed that change when he walked in after going missing for two days with a strangling red mark on his neck that refused to heal and became vibrant whenever I tried to apply ointment, making it even more obvious that it was not a human that made that mark because Ralph would never allow them to get close enough.I would have asked if he was not acting strangely since he returned. He kept a hawk's eye on me, a dark look in his golden eyes that would occasionally flicker to a familiar red without him realizing it—a pair of red eyes that I only see in my dreams.There was a lot I did not know about Ralph, a lot he was keeping from me, and a lot I was afraid to find out because I knew most of it involved me, and I did not want anything to disrupt my peace of mind, even if it meant the entire world dying. I didn't give a

(KAI'S POINT OF VIEW)Just like that, a month flew by, and a lot happened in that month, much of it involving Arryn and me.He showed up every day, and each day was a new and different gift. Accepting gifts from him felt awkward at first, but he assured me it was fine. But seriously, I did not need those gifts, but that seemed to be his love language, or so I assumed.Even though we have not kissed yet, and for some strange reason, I was not anticipating it, we were growing closer every day, and he had made me feel what it meant to have a soulmate.A reason that might involve RalphWhen I said a lot had happened, I also meant Ralph. He was always out and rarely came home, and the red mark on his neck was spreading and becoming more prominent. It was concerning, but whenever I inquired, he dismissed me. I felt like we were drafting apart, and I felt like it was my fault.I was the one who pushed him away when Arryn entered the picture, but it wasn't something I could control. Arryn wa

(KAI'S POINT OF VIEW)My dreams had changed; instead of feeling, I was now watching while fully aware that I was dreaming.The man perched atop a structure had my face; he was identical to me but also distinct from me due to his golden armor, enormous white wings, and golden eyes.He watched the world below him with a calculating gaze as if he were ready to jump into the first fight or use his body as a shield to protect the world beneath him.He appeared to be a fighter, a protector who would go to any length to protect what he was assigned to. He looked devoted. His focus was undivided, but he lacked warmth; he was as cold as ice. "You can take your gaze away for a moment, you know. The world isn't going to come to an end if you look away."A familiar voice spoke, and in an instant, Ralph's familiar features appeared beside him, but Ralph looked different. The wings on his back weren't white; they were a dark shade of black. His hair was golden, but his eyes weren't hazel; they wer

(KAI'S POINT OF VIEW)Arryn was sick.When I arrived at his apartment building, I tried not to notice the luxury; even the elevator was classic.People gave me strange looks, probably wondering what a poor-looking boy was doing in such a posh building. I walked faster, my hoodie thrown over my head, to the back of the elevator that took us to the fourth floor, where Arryn lived. When the elevator finally stopped with a beep, I dashed out and to Arryn's door.There were only three rooms on this floor, so it was not difficult to find his. I stood outside his door, a slight frown on my face, as I heard a female giggle coming from the other side. When I knocked on his door, the laughter came to a halt.I almost thought I heard it wrong, but when the door opened to reveal a girl, I was proven wrong. She beamed. "Hi, you must be Kai?"I nodded and took a quick scan. She was attractive, slender, and dressed in a mini-dress that reached her mid-thigh."Come on in, Arryn has been waiting for

(KAI'S POINT OF VIEW)A week went by before I saw Arryn again. I stared at him blankly as I opened the door. He smiled as he extended a bouquet to me."Hi." "Hi," I answered back, accepting the flowers from him since I couldn't reject them anyway. I looked down and noticed a shopping bag in his hand. I exhaled a sigh. "You should stop getting me presents." "I'm sorry, but you can ask for anything but that. I enjoy getting you gifts." He held up the bag. "Get dressed; we are going out."I raised an eyebrow. "Going out?"He nodded. "I want to make amends for what happened the last time. I was miserable. This is my way of apologizing. So, will you go out with me?" He looked optimistically at me.I looked from the stretched-out bag to his face. Could I say no? "Sure." I took the bag from him. "Do you want to come in?" "No. I’ll be here waiting." I nodded and went back in and back to my bedroom. Ralph was lying on the bed. He didn't look at me as he spoke. "Your soulmate is here.""Hmm

(RALPH'S POINT OF VIEW)I gave him the time and space he wanted. I enlarged the gap he created because I promised not to interfere in his relationship with that soulmate of his. I let him do whatever he wanted, even to the point of lying to me to coat Arryn for the bruise on his stomach and the cut on his face.He was taking me for a fool and I wasn't.With a crook of my head, I watched as the human slept without a care in the world while I rowed the urge to take him apart and make sure he didn't ever open his eyes again.Having had enough of watching the bastard sleep, I snapped my fingers and the idiot was jolting to a sitting position, wide awake. He panted and I let him take his time to calm his ranging heartbeats because I felt like ripping it out and feeding on it.When he finally noticed me, he jostled on the bed and bashed his head on the nightstand. "Y-y-you-" he stuttered messlessly. "How did you get in? What are you doing here?"I snickered and stepped forward. He moved bac
