Stella's POV.“Omg! Freya! Do you recognize that man?” Celine burst into my room just after we got home from work.“Oh no please Celine, I have to sleep. I'm meeting my employer for the second job at 5 pm. I just got the message on my phone. Please let me sleep” I murmured, throwing the blanket over my head.I still remembered how I had fainted last night, in front of that familiar stranger. I wanted to kick up my legs and scream out loud.It was so embarrassing. He rejected me since that was strange then I felt my heart almost jumping out of my chest.I hated that feeling! And I had no plan of ever reliving it or seeing that stranger.Then why do I feel tears surfacing?She pulled the blanket off my face and said “Oh wait, what do you mean your employer? You got the job without meeting them first? That is wonderful! No formal interview and you go the job”“Yes. Now please let me sleep” I covered my face again, satisfied that she got happily distracted. “No Freya, Listen. I have to t

Stella’s POVNever have I felt so unwanted in my life by an imaginary lover, the disgust on his face was too much for me to handle. As much as I hoped that he was the same person as my dreams, it was better to leave with the questions on the tip of my mouth than be humiliated further. Celine was not sure if she should let me be by myself, but it will only make me as weak as the stranger had said.After promising to discuss it after work, she left to serve in her assigned VIP booth and I went to mine. I moved over to the bar to pick up the order I had placed earlier and proceeded to pick up the tray.“Good evening gentlemen, I'm here with your drinks,” I said with a big grin putting all my worries behind me. “You have your martini, chocolate-flavored vodka, and dry vermouth with a lot of ice” I looked up and I saw that they were staring at me with so much emphasis, that started to make me worry. So I moved quickly, wanting to be away from them as soon as possible. I placed the drin

Alexander's POV.“Oh please, grandmother. I am perfectly alright with my life now. I don't need the meddling and there is no way she is out there, it's been years” It's becoming more annoying now that my only family, my grandmother would not stop talking to me about finding my fucking mate. “It's your twenty-ninth birthday and another year without your mate. How can you strengthen your alpha blood if you don't have a mate bond? I know you are unbothered, but I would like to carry your pup” She said, placing her glasses on the rim of her nose. “I have a girl for that. When I am ready, you will carry your grand kids” I said and got up, I was not ready for her tantrums. “I have some meetings to get to,” I made my way toward the door. “Rick will stay with you today, I know you feel safe around him”She looked away, not before throwing me a nasty glare."There you go again Mrs Calum"“But that gesture of yours does not mean I won't keep talking about your mate until you have found her

Stella's POV.I woke up gasping for air, my heart beating so fast that it felt like it was about to leap out of my chest. I was sweating profusely, my body drenched in a layer of sweat that made my sheets cling to me like a second skin. What just happened? Was that real? Or was it just another dream? I looked around my room, taking in the familiar surroundings of my new home. Everything seemed normal, except for the throbbing sensation between my legs.I sat up in bed, still trying to catch my breath and clear my head. The dream felt so real, so intense, making it so hard to shake off the feeling that it was more than just a figment of my imagination. In the dream, I was in the arms of a man I had never met before, but I felt so safe with him like I had known him my whole life. We were in a room, with dimmed lights and candles flickering in the background. His lips was on mine and he was kissing me passionately, his lips moving in perfect sync with mine as if we had been practicing f

Annalise's Point of View"What are you doing here?"Those were the words my own father said to his daughter, whom he hadn’t seen in five years. Did he really despise me that much? Why did he hate me and love Katherine? Wasn’t I his blood too?My thoughts began to spiral out of control, but I forced a smile to my lips. They didn’t need to know what was going on inside me. They didn’t need to know how much his words had pierced my heart. Besides, it was too late to crave fatherly affection from a man who wouldn’t think twice before running me over with a truck.My eyes darted to the side, and the sight of Katherine and Diego made me want to puke. As usual, she took her role very seriously, clinging to him as if he were the only thing that mattered. He just stood there, his expression unreadable, but I couldn’t help noticing how his eyes softened when they landed on me.I snapped my head back to my father and held his gaze.“Mr. Romeo. It’s an honor to see you again,” I said with a curt

DIEGO'S POVMy heart thundered in my chest as I stared into space. She looked so different from the person I once knew. Even if she was different, she was still Annalise—the woman I grew to love without even realizing it. Just like the first time I met her, she was shining like the star she was, flashing her warm smile. Guilt crept into my heart the more I stared at her. My eyes darted to her side, and my heart stopped when I saw the little girl standing beside her. A sharp pain cut through my chest, and I forced air out of my lungs. My hands tightened over the frame of my glass, my gaze glued on the mini version of Annalise. Was she married? That wasn’t possible, right? How could she be married so soon—and worse, with a kid? My thoughts began to spiral out of control when I felt a nudge on my arm. "Babe, what's going through your mind?" Katherine's voice rang in my ears. Suddenly, I felt a rush of raw emotions. I grabbed her wrist, my movements sharp and abrupt. The sight

ANNALISE'S POVAs the car pulled up to the event venue, my heart began to race even more in my chest. The red carpet stretched ahead, illuminated by flashes from cameras and the low buzz of murmured anticipation from the gathered crowd. Once upon a time, this was the reality of my life, but then I left. Now it seemed that no matter what I did, this was my fate. I was born for the spotlight. My eyes flickered over the place. As Caroline said, this was a huge event. Every major player in high society would be here, and tonight, they would see me. The possibility of running into Kathrine, Diego, or even my parents was not slim. I had to mentally prepare myself for anything. No more playing hide and seek. It was time to get my head into the game and take everything back. My fingers tightened around Hope’s small hand, her soft skin grounding me in the moment. I glanced down to find her looking up at me with her bright and wide eyes. Somehow, they reminded me of Diego's, but I s

ANNALISE'S POVAs expected, my sister wasted no time in painting me as the villain in front of the manager. Unbelievable. She was the very definition of a goody two-shoes, always trying to look like the saint while, in reality, she was a wolf in sheep’s clothing—a monster hidden behind a pretty smile.“Is what she said true?” Mr. Evans asked, casting a stern look in my direction.I crossed my arms and pressed my lips into a thin line. “I don’t have to explain myself to you,” I replied firmly.And I was right. Whatever opinion they held of me didn’t matter. It didn’t define who I was.“Miss, I’m so sorry for the inconvenience,” he said, turning to Katherine with an apologetic tone.I scoffed inwardly. As if his apology would finally satisfy her. But imagine my surprise when Mr. Evans gave me a slight bow, shifting his attention away from her.Katherine’s face flushed red as she bit down on her lip, her fingers digging into the fabric of the dress she was holding. For a moment, I thoug

ANNALISE'S POV"Oh my, Annalise. I didn't even expect to see you here," Katherine says in a sly voice, but I couldn’t miss the fire in her eyes.Her hands were still clinging to the gown. Neither of us wanted to let go. "The dress is mine," I said dryly, but her face tightened."I got it before you did." She gave me a stern look, but her sassy attitude was the least of my concern."Alright. It seems that stealing is a hobby. You can have it."My hands slipped from the dress, and I crossed my arms over my chest. I didn’t break eye contact; I kept my gaze firm, hoping it would sink into her skull that I was not her toy.I was not her sister who would do anything to please her. The only reason I decided to let this go was because I was too big to be dragging dresses with her. I could buy the whole boutique if I wanted to.She bit the side of her lip, and I smirked. I guess I hit a nerve. This was just the beginning of my payback for what she had taken from me."When are you going to tell

ANNALISE'S POVMy lips curved into a sly smile as I narrowed my gaze at Caroline, who looked worried about my expression."What?" I shrugged as the smile widened. "You were the one who said I should live a little, right? That’s what I plan to do, so don’t be scared."Caroline gave me a long look before shaking her head."I don’t think this will end well. Especially when you do that eye thing." Caroline pursed her lips, her shoulders slumping slightly."What eye thing?"My voice rose slightly above normal, and my eyes instinctively squinted."Forget it. What’s the plan you have in mind?" she asked, leaning back on her elbows.Hope’s little hand tightened around my neck, and I cradled her closer, feeling her warm, steady breaths against my skin. My little angel was fast asleep. I exhaled, gently caressing the back of her neck.The journey must have taken a toll on her."Is she sleeping?" Caroline arched her brows, stretching her neck to get a glimpse of Hope’s face."Yeah, she is."I lo
