"Damn it!"Sandro kicked at the coffee table in the middle of the room as his eyes strayed to Blaze."We never noticed that. We'd have thoroughly searched her belongings if we had."Sandro sighed, pushing his hand into his hair. "I'm sure the bitch knew. She was waiting for the right time for them to attack us so she'd have a good laugh.""I doubt she does." Blaze shrugged. He had seen how frightened she was. If she knew there were tracking devices on her, she'd have been more confident.Instead, she had recoiled at the slightest thing. Despite sharing a resemblance to Arabella, she didn't act like her.Again, he believed even twins never acted the same way.Arabella was surely the most stubborn woman he had ever met. She never cared if she died at the hand of Sandro. It frightened him that she showed no care whatsoever and did the opposite of whatever he asked of her.He didn't want to see her in the pool of her blood one day. He had almost seen her in that state(When she was in the d
The day was going awful for Alessia. She was hung over, but not only that; some idiot had decided to clasp her hands and legs to the wall and floor using some iron chain.However, she knew the idiot would be none other than Sandro. He was the only one that could pull off such a ridiculous thing.Yet, she didn't know what her offence was.She let out a wince as the light drifted into her half-opened eyes. She shut them back and bit her lower lip.Her head pounded, and wherever she was seemed damp, adding to her distress.She had tried severally to shove down the vomit in her throat, and she doubted she could do so for long.Her eyes opened eventually, and she sniffled as she gazed around. It was dark, darker than she had imagined. Only a torch by the wall illuminated the room.But the glow from it wasn't still enough to call it light.She caught sight of a movement and croaked out. "Help."She clanked the chains holding her together to grasp the attention of whoever was there, but it s
Arabella furrowed her brows as she gazed outside the window again. The shadow was still there.And she felt it watching her. She was apprehensive, and the hair on her skin stood.She rubbed her now clammy palms on the nightie she donned and gripped the cell phone she plucked from the nightstand.Dialing Blaze's number, she chewed on her bottom lip whilst waiting for him to pick up his phone.Although he told her not to call, she couldn't help it.She didn't know what lurked in the dark, and she had heard of some killings lately. She doubted the perpetrators were around."Please pick up." She murmured and stilled as footsteps approached her door.A key twisted in the lock, and she glanced around frantically in search of what she could use to defend herself.Since she came, it was her first time encountering such, and she didn't think she had given anyone access to the house aside from Blaze.Yet, she doubted it was Blaze. He'd have informed her if he was coming around!She gripped a sta
Arabella was in trouble. That was the only thing on Blaze's mind as he stepped on the gas pedal. Time was running out, and he was sure they'd catch up with her sooner.It was barely one week since he visited her last, and many things had transpired. Many things had fúcking be revealed, including her current location.Also, the blood that was always given to Sandro to restrain him whenever he was on the verge of going berserker was hers.Not only that, she was the fucking Delicate Rose.Blaze creased his brows. It wasn't very clear. He didn't know what was going on. She was declared as Delicate Rose one time, and the other time, she wasn't.He didn't know where all the information came from, but he was sure Sandro had an informant. Someone was giving him all the information, and it was someone he didn't know about.Shit, that same person might have been the one lurking near Arabella's window. For a few seconds, Blaze remembered his conversation with her five days ago. He had assumed she
Thalia stepped towards Blaze's room. It was the second time she was going there today, but he wasn't anywhere to be found. She had discretely asked the other werewolves in the pack about his whereabouts, but none were sure where he went. And most answers were he was on patrol.Even Sandro was sure he was on patrol. But Thalia knew otherwise. She had freaking gone to where he went on patrol to discuss with him, and she saw no one. Not even his scent lingered around to signify he had come.Whilst she asked the other guard, he told her he had come. She figured out all was a lie and he was protecting him. Thalia wondered about the kind of relationship they had, as he had even sworn that he was there.She stepped into his room and glanced around. Her eyes narrowed as she glimpsed a red scarf. Walking towards it, she yanked it off where he had hidden it, and she grimaced.It reeks of Arabella scents. And it was as if he had just brought it in.Blaze knew where Arabella was. He had fúcking
"Shit!" Arabella gasped out, swerving to the side.She breathed out, having missed brushing an SUV. Arabella glanced at Blaze and almost regretted it. He was up the car's roof with no protection whatsoever, and he was opening fire on the people on their trail.Even without being told about who sent those people, she was aware of who was involved.Alessandro De Luca.Arabella grimaced. Since she left the De Luca household, she had assumed he had forgotten about her. Yet, she doubted he'd easily forget when he had threatened her over again.He had told her she would not hide from him forever, and he would kill her no matter what happened.Now, Arabella believed he was keeping to his promise. He had freaking kept tabs on her all this while, and he was going to kill her.She should be the least of his problem because she was just a freaking girl!A powerless one at that!But he made her his topmost mission. Heck, he made her seem as though she was a criminal that should not go unpunished
The night air was frigid, and Blaze jerked awake. His ears perked up as he heard sudden movement from the outside.He nudged Arabella gently, unwrapping her arms around him and rising to his feet.Glancing through the small window, he glimpsed a furry creature that looked like a squirrel; he let out a breath, walking back to the bed.Glancing at the injury, Arabella had tried her best to dress up; he noticed it was healing faster.He didn't know what she did and how it happened; Blaze figured out he passed out after she injected him with things she had seen in the first-aid box.He didn't care to ask her as well; all that mattered was that he was alive.Blaze caressed her hair, which created a halo about her as she slept. Her lips parted slightly, and a soft snore escaped them.Blaze chuckled, shaking his head. He winced at the movement he made as it caused him a terrible headache. He wasn't entirely healed, but he was looking better than earlier.He had Arabella to thank for it. He k
Thalia frowned. It was weird; how Sandro was smiling at her nonsensically made her even more afraid than what Blaze told her.As he stepped towards her, she backed away towards the door."You look creepy." Thalia cleared her throat, attempting to sound normal even though she was scared shitless.She gripped the hem of the dress she donned and counted three as she prepared to run. But luck wasn't on her side.Sandro whooshed towards her and gripped her by her neck. Fuck! He was too fast!He flung her back into the room and sneered.Thalia stuttered, shaking her head as he moved nearer. "S-stop. Whatever is going through your head, you need to stop!"She said the last word a little firmer, but she believed all she said fell on deaf ears as he pounced on her.Sandro gripped her neck, and he leaned into her."It's me, Alessandro!" Thalia shoved his chest. She kicked as his grip tightened on her neck. Her eyes rounded, and she hissed. "You will kill me!"Sandro loosened his grip as he saw
