Dominic POV ‎"Ulterior motives eh?" I repeated and Selene nodded twice. “‎That's what I believe." selene affirmed. “She’s probably pushing your buttons, trying to get on your soft side so when you don't notice, she'll do what she's planning internally. What she harbors in mind." ‎"Hmph," I said thinking, and Selene smiled.She probably thought in her head that if I gave her an inch, she was going to go a mile and keep adding fuel to fire so, Elena wouldn't be in my favour, but then, the conversation that seemed to be going North in her favour went south very fast. ‎"What do you take me for?" I asked and Selene was caught off guard by the question."Uhm, what do you mean by that, Dominic?" She asked, genuinely confused. ‎ ‎"Exactly what I said. What do you take me for?" I repeated, facing her and my expression had become grim and cold and Selene gulped nervously but she still stood her ground thinking of a way she could regain control of the conversation. If

Elena POVThe first kiss was totally unexpected. And even after it, I didn't know what I was going to expect from Dominic or even myself. There were too many emotions involved for me to make the right call on the particular reaction I was going to make. Or Dominic was going to make either.But then he does this—an unexpected after a previous unexpected.This kiss wasn't as soft as the previous one. This time, I could feel there was more intention and desire behind it.This time, it was more raw and passionate and I could even say clumsy. I had closed my eyes, feeling just sizzles in my body while his tongue searched around in my mouth.And in this moment, my body surprised me the most because it wasn't doing anything I thought it was supposed to do. That is, kick against it, stop him from tasting me, and get angry even.We continued to kiss for a minute before he finally dislodged his lips from mine, and I was surprised by how I was trying to catch my breath. I felt as if fire had bee

Elena POVIn that subtle moment, everything felt paused to me, like a movie. I didn't think a single thought ran through my mind before I rushed over to the side of Dominic's bed, kneeling on the ground as I felt my worry spike within me.“Dominic!” I said, my worry now very evident on my face as my eyes still remained locked on his wounded arm.I gently grabbed his arm and examined it. To me, it seemed that the wound, which was already wrapped before, had reopened again, and that was because there were two shades of blood, with one darker than the other. It must have been from when he stood up abruptly from the bed and told Selene to leave, I think.“What happened to you while you were away? How did you get this wound?” I asked, hungry for answers. But then, seconds passed and I didn't get any answers to my questions.Dominic just sat there silently. He wasn't looking at his wound or at my hand, which I used to apply pressure on the wound so that the bleeding would slow down. To me,

Elena's POV“What's happening here?” I asked, ignoring Selene’s previous question as my eyes darted between Selene and Dominic, laying so still it almost felt like he was a log of wood.“What are you doing to him? Why is he—” I didn’t finish my next question before Selene jumped to her feet and rushed to me, using her hand to cover my mouth so I wouldn’t keep talking.“Shhhh,” she said, turning to Dominic, seeing that he only grunts a bit and then continues to sleep. She exhaled in relief and faced me with her earlier cold expression.“I asked you, why did you come inside?” she said, but her tone was low and stern as well.“Why wouldn’t I? I was very curious. I didn’t understand what you meant by your statement and again, you didn’t come out, so I didn’t know what to do and I couldn’t keep waiting outside,” I replied, also keeping my voice low.“Well, the best thing for you to have done is to go back to your room and wait till Dominic has decided to go to his office or somewhere you c

Elena POVI didn’t sleep much last night.In my head, my conflicting thoughts were too much of a bother to allow me to lie down and get up to three hours of rest and so, I ended up sleeping outside for a few minutes before I woke up again. From the way I saw it, it felt as if the night just went by in minutes.All this while, I was thinking but yet, I still wasn't able to find a suitable answer to settle my worries. I sighed dejectedly and got on my feet, deciding it was better to go back to my room. There was no reason for me to keep answering questions with questions. I had to try and get some sleep, even if it was just a little.The soft ticking of the big clock in the hallway was the only sound accompanying my racing thoughts.There was something wrong, something off. And I could feel it.Every corner of this mansion seemed to carry hidden details of secrets I wasn't seeing.It felt like betrayal and a blend of other eerie things were going on from beyond the facade of it all, an
