MELISSA’S POV“Y…you are using your hands to eat?” I asked in surprise.“Yeah, it is a free world. You don’t have to feel that if you do not go by some of the norms of this world, you are wrong. Sometimes, just go with the flow of how you feel.” He said as he chewed his steak.He made me feel enlightened, but I couldn’t bring myself to eat the steak with my hands. It was just so weird, where people of a high class, were. But I was impressed by how Stefan wasn’t filled with pride, even with how successful he was. He was a good boss and I am certain that if he had friends, he was a good friend to them as well.~We were done eating and we walked slowly over to a river bank and I was beaming with smiles.“So, how did you enjoy today’s tour?” Stefan asked, with his hands in his pockets.“Well, I think it is when we get to the hotel’s entrance you should ask that question, because we can’t tell, what if we decide to go somewhere else?” I said, with a wide smile.“Oh, I understand. Alright
STEFAN’S POVSeeing Melissa in a difficult situation made me alert. I didn’t want to lose her again and that was the reason I told myself that I would protect her with all my might. “Melissa! Hold on! I’m coming to you.” I called out to her as I ran with human speed and before I got to where she was, she had already saved herself and was coming out of the water, laughing as she covered her mouth.“So, you could swim?” I asked, wondering why she pulled that prank on me.“I can swim. But I had a bit of a problem back there, when I almost had a muscle cramp, so if you think I did that intentionally, no, I didn’t.” She said, with a slight smile on her face.Regardless of if she did that intentionally, it made me fall in love with her the more and made me wish more and more that she would regain her memory. She was certainly a werewolf, regardless of her being reborn. It was such a rare case for a supernatural to be reborn as a human and that is the fact I will stand on.“I’m glad you are
MELISSA’S POVI was annoyed at the way Stefan spoke rudely to the couple and that only made me lose interest in what was happening here. I was embarrassed to be identified with him and it was certain the couple would think that I was also like him, since I was moving with him and all.No matter how hard I tried, I still couldn’t get that scene off my mind and it renewed every single moment I remembered it. My phone rang and I checked who was calling. It was Layla.“Finally. A distraction.” I said, with a smile as I answered the call.“Hey Melissa. I called to check on you. How is that place and how are you enjoying the nice view, which I am certain the city would have.” Layla said, giggling over the phone.“Well, the city is glorious and it has wonderful sights. I am more than honored to be here and I will make sure that I take in all the beautiful sights I can take in, before I leave.” I said, with a wide smile on my face.“I envy you. Anyways, while you are there, I can freely eat a
STEFAN’S POVI had smelled the scent of the man who abducted Melissa and her friend and I wanted to track him down. What could someone like that be doing here? Could he be trailing Melissa? I would not allow a second abduction to happen. Not on my watch!I tried my best to follow the scent but it had trailed off and there was no way I could get the scent anymore. I was frustrated because I couldn’t find the man. Then I checked my phone only to see that time had gone and there was a probability that Melissa would be worried. What even got me was the calls I got from her, which I missed. I decided to run back to the hotel and in a few minutes, I got to the alley, which held the fastest route to the hotel, but I smelled Melissa’s scent and then I heard a noise. I looked closely and saw Melissa, struggling among a few men who seemed to be interested in molesting her.“Hey! Don’t you dare touch her!” I warned as I squeezed my face.“Who the hell are you to say that?” One of them said.As
STEFAN’S POVI was happy with the fact that Melissa had confessed. It was going to be easier for her to accept her past if I told her about it. My heart raced for her and I couldn’t wait for her to be in my arms. Then I picked up my phone and sent her a text. I knew that she would have no choice than to come over and it was certain that she was awake, already.A few minutes later, I heard a knock on my door.“You can come in.”She came in, looking like a cute teddy and I could tell that she was nervous.“Have your seat.”“Uhm... I’m so…”I interrupted before she completed the word. She was probably feeling uncomfortable with my actions and probably wondering that I was annoyed, which I wasn’t.“Here.” I offered her wine as I poured it into a wine glass.“I…I don’t think that’s a good idea.” She said, politely.“It’s fine. It isn’t alcoholic.” I assured her, with a smile.She collected the wine from me and sipped it slowly.“I think you should also drink a lot of water after this, oka
MELISSA’S POVI was shocked that he had insisted that we were a couple when we aren’t and I felt bad the more, because he was probably doing this, because of that confession which wasn’t true. I decided that after this breakfast with the couple, I will settle the misunderstanding.After the breakfast ended and the couple went their way, as we got out of the restaurant, I made move to tell him.“Uhm… I need to explain yesterday’s…”“Look. I understand your feelings and I will give you time to process it, seeing that you are too shy to accept it. I am not mad at you, okay?” He interrupted me and gave me a smile.I couldn’t say a word anymore and I wasn’t certain, when this drama was going to end as it seemed like he had really taken it, serious. We got back to our respective rooms in the hotel, and as I let myself fall on the bed, I remembered his words.~Flashback~“Look. I understand your feelings and I will give you time to process it, seeing that you are too shy to accept it. I am n
STEFAN’S POVI could feel how frightened she was, especially that she didn’t mind to be in my arms, on the bed. I was a man and we weren’t married in this world. She wouldn’t want to do this, in her right senses. Anyways, she already confessed to me that she loved me, so it explains why it also seemed easy for her to sleep in my arms.After making sure that she was asleep, I withdrew myself from her, slowly, to check her room out. I got outside and when I got to the room, I scrutinized it, but didn’t find anyone there, neither did I see any sign of struggle between two people. I also checked the bathroom and saw no one there. What could have happened?It was even baffling, more, as there was no evidence of what happened. But since she felt safe with me, it was better to be fine with what she wanted. If she was in so much trouble, she could have told me. It could even be that she had a nightmare or sort, but that certainly wasn’t it, because her hair and skin was wet like she had just
MELISSA’S POVWe went to the car and then before Stefan started the car, he turned to me and looked at me out of concern.“Is there anything wrong?” I asked, out of curiosity.“I should be asking you. What’s bothering you, Melissa? I know something is wrong, for you to come all the way from the hotel, to meet me, while I am busy and if you do not remember, you slept beside me, on the same bed. I know it is something really big. Talk to me.” Stefan said, looking really concerned.I heaved a sigh, then looked at him.“I’m sorry if I inconvenienced you in any way. It’s just… Just a haunting memory, which I do not want to talk about.” I said, hoping he would understand, because I did not want to, in any way, remember it anymore.“Alright, I understand. So, what do you say, if we go to the beach?” He suggested, with a smile that changed the gloomy mood into a bright one.“Sure. I’m in for it. But I am going to pay.” I said, with a smile on my face.“Alright, if you say so.”Then he drove u
