SUNSHINE:“I never said that. I might find the woman useful as the time goes, Knoxx answered.”“You will be using her? And next to her body? And then what?”"You're starting to act like you're jealous, stepsister," Knoxx declared. I forced my mouth shut. "Don't say I am jealous. Dante might get weird ideas."Dante’s eyes went back and forth between me and Knoxx. "I already did."Knoxx and I looked in his direction, my heart hammering against my chest. "Y-you do? Dante. Nothing is going on between us," I started. "Don't get any weird ideas.""They said that the more you hate, the more you love.""That's not true!" I exclaimed. Looking at Knoxx I said, "Did you hear him? It's because of you, stepbrother."Knoxx glared in reply. Sighing, Dante asked, “Haven’t you settled your issues? You're acting like children. No offense, Alpha Knoxx. You two reminded me of my siblings.”“We haven’t settled anything. Yet. Though I already seek her forgiveness. She won't forgive me."I shook my head

SUNSHINE:Knoxx's plan to have a negotiation was thrown out of the window after the murder. The townspeople had looked at us as if we were the culprit. The three of us—Dante, Knoxx, and me. Their eyes said that we were the reason why this peaceful town suddenly became chaotic. If only I knew the murderer, I would kill him myself. Because of him, it looked like our stay in this place would move over. What happened earlier still shook me. After doing the necessary steps, the dead body was carried away. Seeing Dante's house would never be the same. The victim's eyes would forever haunt me. I hugged myself as images of the victim's glassy eyes flashed through my memories. "Are we not doing anything?" I asked while biting my fingernails."Quite biting your fingernails. What are you? A child?" Knoxx chastised. We were on the balcony of Dante's house looking at the overlooking mountain. Knoxx's anger did not dissipate. He was on edge, but not saying anything. He was the most dangero

SUNSHINE:Jericho wanted me back and did he think I believed him? I did not.Only a fool would believe him. That was what he was good at. Confusing my heart. Making me fall for him and the next thing he does, he will crush my heart using his own bare hand. Then, he would laugh at me and will say that I was stupid and foolish for falling for the same tricks over again. "You think I was the same fool in the past? Jericho. You cannot say that you want back without even apologizing for what you did in the past. Apologize first!”“I admit I was a fool, Sunshine. But I already reflected on my past actions.”"Say you are sorry."If he did, then the pain might disappear and I could move on. "I wasn't wrong, Sunny. Why would I say sorry?"“You hurt me. You cheated on me. You think those are not enough reasons to ask for my forgiveness?”“Do I have to say those words? I am an alpha.”He was hopeless and I could no longer stay with someone who was not even aware of his mistakes. “An alpha i

SUNSHINE:"An eye for an eye."How scary. If the investigators do not do their job well, an innocent person will likely be killed. "Yes. There will be no due process or whatever. As long as it was sure that you were the murderer, you would be killed the next day after. But since the suspects are Alpha Knoxx and Dante, Brody's move is calculated. A single decision will create a domino effect. They will be annihilated instantly by the alpha's father the moment they touch the three of you. So you don't have to worry a lot, okay?"Don’t worry? It was not his life that was at stake. It was Knoxx, Dante, and mine. How could I stay put while our lives were on the line?We would only be safe if the real murderer was caught. How? I hope Knoxx will do everything in his will to catch the person behind this. "I'm not worried," I lied and sipped the coffee. Damn. It was super hot and I even burned my tongue. “My stepbrother won’t leave me.”Are you sure about that? The other part of my mind ask

SUNSHINE:Talk of another demon and he will come, I thought. Dante and Knoxx were standing side by side with Knoxx’s gun bulging in his hips. The two instantly prepared for the incoming fight. Fight between Jericho and Knoxx. ‘That man arrived here? Since when? How come you never told me about it?’ he asked through our link. 'It slipped from my mind and I never thought he would arrive today. Stop glaring at me. It's not like I invited Jericho here!' I snapped. With long strides, Knoxx closed the distance between us and pulled me away from Jericho. "You're not allowed to touch any part of her body," Knoxx muttered protectively. “If you did, I will kill you myself.”A shiver ran down my spine.Such possessiveness. If only this was real. "Stepbrother. Stop making a scandal. We will again be the talk of the town," I reminded him, but leaned on him, nevertheless. He stiffened for a moment, before he relaxed. His hold on me tightened. My heartbeat quickened. Knoxx smelt so good. "
