Into the Night Chapter 17
From Alassandra's POV Two days had passed since I last saw Ikaris. And Lillian had not responded to any of my text messages or calls. I had yet to look at the file she had left. As much as I wanted to know what was in it, I couldn't find it in me to open it. The memory of my parents flooded my mind at the mere thought of the file. It was all I had left of them. The idea of finding something that would tarnish their memories was unbearable for me.Vero had come to check on me, apologizing for not coming over sooner. In her defense, she said that since I had left with Professor Ikaris, she didn't think anything of it. I couldn't stay mad at her. If the tables had been turned, I wouldn't have thought anything of it."It's fine. I had a good time," I told her as we headed toward our first class. We chatted about our weekend plans before parting ways. Vero gave me a small hug goodbye before heading off to her class.I was excited to start the path to becoming a lawyer, only hoping that I

From Alassandra's POV"Professor Ikaris, it's nice to see you," I replied, glancing around to find some way to escape. Ikaris smiled as he stepped past me and pulled the door open."Just Ikaris, you need not be so formal," he winked, gesturing to me to enter the diner.The Darkroom, true to its name, was a dimly lit chamber adorned with opulent gold seats and crimson tabletops. The walls were adorned with a captivating collection of monochrome photographs, creating an ambiance of intrigue and allure. The bar, well-stocked with an array of spirits, added to the enigmatic atmosphere. From the moment I stepped foot inside, I was inexplicably drawn to this place as if it held a secret that only I could unravel. As I settled down at one of the tables, the mysterious aura of the surroundings both enticed and intimidated me, making me feel an immediate sense of belonging and fascination."Tell me, how did you come across this place?" Ikaris asked. A smirk appeared on his face as his gaze lin
Into the Night Chapter 19
From Ikaris's POVOur peaceful encounter turned into a chaotic scene in the blink of an eye. The waitress, who had just greeted us moments ago, suddenly burst into flames. It was a sight that left me speechless and in shock. Although Alessandra had spoken to her last, I couldn't believe it was anything more than a coincidence. However, as we made our way back to her car, I couldn't shake off the strange feeling that had taken hold of me. There was something different about Alessandra, something I couldn't put my finger on. It was as if she had an aura around her that I had never seen before. Although it piqued my curiosity, it also sent a chill down my spine.As Alassandra opened her car and turned towards me, she remarked, "Well, that was quite interesting." I nodded in agreement, curious to know more. "You never mentioned what brought you to that bookstore," I asked, crossing my arms.Alassandra tilted her head, her eyes gleaming with excitement. "I was strolling through the shoppin
Into the Night Chapter 20
From Alassandra's POVI was utterly scattered mentally. I found myself pondering things that I never imagined would cross my mind. What was supposed to be a peaceful trip into town quickly transformed into an enormous disaster when the waitress suddenly burst into flames. I couldn't comprehend how such a bizarre incident could occur. The echoes of her screams continued to replay in my thoughts, and the expression of sheer shock and terror in her eyes would forever haunt me.Then there was the bookstore. Ikaris' words left me with several questions. I found it incredibly difficult to believe that it had been closed for twelve years. I had been to the store and spoken to the owner; how was this even possible? As much as I had wanted to go back and take another look to bring peace of mind to myself after what happened in the restaurant, I knew there was absolutely no way I could return, at least not for a while. As I came to a stop at the stop light, I shook my head to clear my thoughts
Into the Night Chapter 21
From Alassandra's POVI felt my heart pounding in my chest as I stared at the wolf before me. Even though everything in my body was screaming for me to run, my body was unresponsive. After a mere few moments, I slowly began to step away from him. My first thought was to get to the restroom as quickly as possible so I could lock myself inside. However, it suddenly dawned on me that the bathroom had no windows."That's great. Now I'm thinking like the girls in the horror movies," I thought to myself.As I stood face to face with the wolf, I observed that it wasn't moving but was staring at me. I felt a sense of familiarity when I gazed into its eyes, but I couldn't place it. Taking a few steps back, I also noticed the wolf following me. I felt my heart pounding in my chest as I took another step back. Each time I moved back, the wolf also took a step until we reached the center of the room. We both stared at each other for what seemed like an eternity before the wolf shook its head, lea
Into the Night Chapter 22
From Alassandra's POVOnce again, I felt as though I was falling into an empty void, a void unlike any other I'd ever experienced before. Even though I could see everything around me, there was no sound to be heard. The feeling left me feeling like I was alone in the world, with no one to talk to or share my thoughts with. It was a feeling of complete isolation and emptiness I had never experienced before. The only comfort I felt was that of the sweet taste of blood left in my mouth; it soothed the darkness and kept it calm, yet I still felt something else lurking just beyond the empty void that surrounded me.It felt like my day moved in slow motion; each class seemed to last longer than the last. There was nothing more I wanted to do than lie in bed with my newfound friend and enjoy his warm embrace. Leaving him that morning was the hardest decision I had made thus far. I felt a deeper connection to him than I did before. It was impossible to explain, even I didn't understand it, bu
Into the Night Chapter 23
From Alassandra's POVMy eyes were fixed on the phone in my hand, unsure of what I had just heard. My mouth fell open in shock, leaving me speechless. As far as I knew, my father was dead, and there was no way that was his voice. At least, that is what I thought until I heard it again and realized it was his voice."Alessandra, do you hear me, sweet girl?" my father asked, breaking me out of my thoughts. I looked at Ikaris in an effort to encourage me to answer, and he nodded."Yeah, but how are you..." I said as I closed my eyes, unable to finish the sentence I had started. I suddenly felt like that little girl once again, and suddenly, all the emotions of that night hit me like a freight train, and I felt like I had been transported back to that night when they left. After hearing my father's voice through the phone, I could feel the air around me turn cold as he spoke."Alassandra, please calm down," my father said to me while his voice was tinged with urgency and anger at the same
Into the Night Chapter 24
From Ikaris's POVAs soon as I stepped outside the room, I was inundated with questions. What I heard just a few minutes ago could not have been more unbelievable to me. For years, we were told that Alassandra's parents were dead, and for years, we were dedicated to bringing her here and destroying her. Yet, for some reason, hearing her father's voice was enough to make me question all of the things we had been taught up to this point. As time passed, I had already begun questioning things, but now I had even more reasons to do so, and after finding out I was mated to Alassandra, I was looking at things from a different angle.Taking a deep breath, I mind-linked Moriah and Argos. Although I was unsure of what I would say, I knew I needed to explain it."Argos, Moriah, I need to speak with you both. Meet me in the office in five," I said through the mind-link.The sound of Argos' voice flooded through the mind-link. "I'm a little busy right now, Brother. Can it wait?" he said."Pussy c
