Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)I found myself in a club. The place was crowded and as soon as I entered, all I could smell was sweat and the arousal that everyone felt in the club. I could see everyone gyrating on each other, some were even doing things that are not meant for the public eye, but no one cared. Everyone was in an adrenaline rush, and they were having fun. Something I came here to do as well. I made my way over to the bar and took a seat. I immediately gained the attention of the bartender, and he made her way over to where I was sitting.I smiled at him, and he smiled back. He was really handsome, and I could not keep my eyes off him.“What can I help you with tonight?” He asked as he bent over the bar at eye level and made eye contact with me.The bartender was so close to my face that I could smell his minty breath. I felt a strong attraction to him, but I could not explain it.It is similar to the feeling I

Alveric Valentine (P.O.V.)Succubus.That is the first word to come to mind when I saw Isla’s eyes. In case you do not know what, a succubus is known to be a female demon that sleeps with men in their dreams. It has been speculated that they use this as a technique to lure their victims to them so that when they do have them in their grasp, they can kill them. However, during my years as a historian and messenger waiting for the prophecy to unfold, I have witnessed the adaptations of succubus throughout the centuries. It is not often that a succubus shows up, but when they do, they are usually harnessed and controlled by a secondary party. The secondary party is usually a witch. The witch would control and harness the powers of the succubus so that the succubus could collect souls for the witch. If this is the case, then Isla would be in a lot of danger.“Come on, you troublemaker,” I muttered before I grabbed her arm and attem

Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)It has been a month since everything happened concerning Adelina and Alessandro. After the one night I had at the club, everything has been quiet. I started working for Dimitri as promise, much to Alessandro’s dismay. He begged me to work for him, but I just needed some time away from him. It was bad enough that I was living in his house, I would rather not see him at work as well. Seeing him twenty-four-seven was just something I could not and would not do.I was currently at the office, documenting some files for Dimitri before we make our way to another meeting. There is a charity event coming up, and since the date had been decided for the event, he has been getting meetings nonstop with clients who want to be a part of the event. Usually, they would come in as a form of bribery during big cases that are going on where they are against the public for a lawsuit. Attending the charity event for them and donating would

Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.As soon as I got to my room, I took off my clothes and turned the shower on. I undid my hair and as I stared at myself in the mirror, I massaged my scalp to allow myself to ease the tension on my scalp from wearing a tight bun all day. It honestly felt amazing.Eventually, I hopped into the shower and quickly scrubbed my body. It felt so good to finally shower after a long day of work. I would have drawn a bath if it were not for the fact that I had offered to help Alessandro out with his work.When I got home and saw him sprawled out on the floor looking so helpless, my heart sunk. I do not hate him, I just acknowledge more than ever that he is a hardheaded idiot – as are all men, so I excused his behavior. This did not mean that I have forgiven him for betraying me once again, but if I re

Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)“Thank you for explaining that to me. I know you did not have to. I really appreciate it. God alone knows what I would have done if I kept overthinking every possible scenario that could have played out while you were out there without me.”I did not lie…I just did not tell the whole truth. I did not feel bad for the things that occurred at the club but as I explained that night to Alessandro, I recalled the guy I met at the bar. My heart fluttered as an image of his face appeared in my mind. I wish I got to know him better. I could not get him out of my mind and the last thing he said to me before he disappeared. I wondered if having two mates is possible.I sighed involuntarily as the thought of not having a family of my own crossed my mind. I wish I had someone of my own to explain these sorts of things to me. To offer me guidance and have answers to my questions. I really missed my parents. I wish
