Simone's povA light yawn eased through my lips as soon as I pushed my eyes open. I rolled around in bed, a smile stretched on my lips as soon as I recalled the previous night.“Giovanni?” I called out, but he wasn't in bed and didn't seem to be in the bathroom either, immediately I got worked up,why wasn't he around?.Did it perhaps have something to do with our sex last night? Did he think of it as a mistake? Did he wake up only to regret sharing the same bed with me?.All sorts of negative thoughts seeped into my mind, but then I knew I needed to gather every positive mindset I could take. I waited for a few more minutes in bed with my eyes lingering against the door, hoping he would make his way in any moment after that, but nothing happened.Soon, I became restless and scared. I couldn't wait anymore. I deserve an explanation. Why on earth would he sleep with me just to ghost me, I didn't do anything wrong last I recalled. I needed to set some facts straight.I pushed myself off
.CIARA.“What was that about?” Trevor asked, glaring wide-eyed at me. I swallowed hard before putting up with a frown.I went red from fury, jealousy, and pain; I could barely think; my mind was thrown into a haze; I had a lot on mMy mind at the moment; I needed to get back to simone for making such a great deal of embarrassment for me.“Tell me. What exactly are you up to?” Trevor asked again, grinning widely from ear to ear; it had not seemed like he was interested in anything to say to me other than yell.“You tried to murder her? What on earth is wrong with you; how could you do something like that?” Trevor asked again, and that was the most I could take; he was not only pissing me off; he had gotten on my nerves and was making me sick at the moment.“Talk to me; why on earth are you so mad at me? All because I tried to kill her? My only regret is that she isn't dead!” I snapped; Trevor seemed to have been taken aback by my words.Everyone but him understood how much I spited s
CIARAS POV.My eyes lingered on the grave before me. Never have I felt so suffocated and frustrated; even in death, he was still pissing me off.“Fuck!” I screamed before kicking against the edgestone. I picked up the flowers before tossing them over to the floor in anger and stomping on them.They all made a ridicule of me; they all watched as she embarrassed me, and not even one person had stopped by to check on me or ask for my side of the story, but it seemed like they had enough time to go around putting flowers on the grave.“You couldn't help yourself, could you?” I yelled into thin air, hoping his ghost was somewhere around and could hear me.“You just had to pass down the pack to her; well, if anything happens to your daughter, it's your bloody fault! She should know better than taking what i want'' I screamed from frustration. I tossed the last strand of flowers that lay on the desk.I shrugged Slowly, a lot of thoughts settled into my mind while I turned away from the green
CIARA'S POV.All through the night Trevor has not said a single word to me, a feast. I was scared and worried that he might have trailed behind me and saw what had transpired between the man and me, but after several hours it came to my realization that he was having a gruff attitude all because of simone, and thinking of it made me red with anger.?However, as soon as morning came, I expected him to try picking up several conversations with me, yet all came to no avail, and then I realized that nothing was worth it so far; I only needed to wait a bit longer to see how long he could keep the no conversation thing going on.Rolling my eyes, I watched as Trevor made his way into the car slowly and tucked himself into the seat. Finally, he raised his gaze to match mine; it was just about time he stopped the sassy attitude of his.“I would prefer you keep your distance away from me as of now; I have no intention to speak with you. I'm sure you can tell by now, so please don't embarrass y
SIMONES POV“Where am I going?” I asked, parting my lips slowly while Camellia held me by the side. How did I wake up while we took slow steps until I finally sank into a chair?We were no longer around the burial grounds or the greenhouse. I felt a splitting headache attack me.I kept, drawing on my breath. I didn't dare push open my eyes, scared that the pain might become unbearable for me. I wanted to flinch a bit.“Where am I? Where did you bring me?” I used it again, and she reached closer towards me.“I'll get to Giovanni for you,” she responded before standing on her feet. I tried to reach towards her, but I couldn't. I felt every muscle in my body numb. I felt myself get yanked into darkness as I pushed my eyes closed, shutting me out of my consciousness.I felt a sickening motion out of my belly as I opened my eyes. I immediately needed to come over. I groaned from pain and frustration. I raised my head only to be struck by a terrible migraine. My lips quivered as I tried push
GIOVANNI'S POVSeeing her fast asleep made me feel like the happiest man alive. My heart was filled with joy to the brim. It was almost unbelievable that I had a woman like simone beneath my nose all along, and I had almost lost her due to my anger and jealousy.We've been doing good so far, both of us, working on our relationship to make things better, but poor simone; she is never given a break; it was always one trouble after another.I tucked in the fallen strands of her hair behind her ear; my gaze lingered on her lips a little while my fingers trailed around her nose.She mumbled in her sleep, scrunching up her nose before finally turning her back away from me. She looked really cute and beautiful, in a way that made me obsessed with her, but thinking of what those men had done made my skin crawl with goosebumps as my anger skyrocketed with every passing second. I didn't want anything like that happening; all I wanted was a little bit of rest. I saw how overwhelmed she was, and
TREVORS POV..“Sir, the bar would be closed in ten minutes, and I don't think you should be taking more wine; should we call a cab for you? The car would be kept safe till tomorrow,” he added.“An hour, keep it open for an hour more; I'll pay extra, and yes, serve me more wine, then leave; I'd like my privacy." I responded and belched in the process,The waiter nodded and saved me a new bottle of Scotch. He bowed and made his way back to his station. A smile settled on my lips, seeing how no one was around to bother me at the moment. I dropped off the butt of the cigarette into the ashtray before lighting up another one.A sigh eased through my lips as I gulped some contents of the glass cup.I wasn't prepared to return home; it was only going to put me in a more difficult situation, and so far I had no intentions of having myself wrapped up in bothersome issues.I relaxed back into the couch, letting all the pain go down my spine. I wasn't up for more pain in the process. Going back h
TREVORS POVThe door to the council hall pushed open hastily as my beta made his way hastily into the hall.“How dare you storm in without prior notice?” Elder james asked, and I rolled my eyes, knowing they were heavy on respect if they most likely would drag out the entire thing till it was out of control.“This is the council of elders zone is one of the most sacred places in a pack, and you dare make your way in without announcing,” elder Thomas asked, backing up his friend. I rolled my eyes once more before coughing aloud.I knew I needed to say something or they would all take turns at hurling insults at him.“He is my beta, isn't he? And I had sent him to an emergency job; I asked him to report to me, notwithstanding that now the reports must have come through." I lied; I could see frowns that had spread across their faces, but I had no interest in keeping up with anything they had to say.My beta made his way closer to me, leaned forward, and whispered into my ears,I rose to
SIMONES POV.MY eyes fluttered open, and the first thing that came to me was Giovanni's beautiful eyes staring down at me. I fought hard to hold my smile in, but my joy knew no bounds. I felt butterflies in my tummy. I swallowed hard, a smile settling on my lips.I couldn't help it. Why was he so good to me? He had been very supportive these days; he had saved my life twice in a row, pampered me, showered me with love and attention; he had been the best so far. How on earth am I to miss that! He had been one of the best gifts and support the moon goddess had given off to me in a while.“Why are you smiling? You have this funny look in your eyes, you know; they keep twitching,” he teased. His voice was soft, and he gently used his fingers to poke gently at my nose.I didn't want to leave this moment; I really want things to remain like this forever, just the both of us, nothing else, no puns intended; this was all I wanted. A happy and fulfilled life with him, so why on earth are thing
TREVORS POV.“Get your fucking hands off me!” My screams wouldn't stop, and I felt more pain, thinking about my hot ass. I'm dragged away, giovanni! That bastard! He watched as he dragged me out of the pack. He seems to have waited for a day like this, and it was pissing me off the most.“Your highness,” a familiar voice called out behind me; it was my Beta. He stood between the guards and me, blocking them as they moved away from me.“I'll take it from here,” he ordered before walking me over to the corner, but it still doesn't seem like he was pleased to have watched all that happened.“I had looked for you only to see you driving past me; I couldn't stop you, so I had to take a cab and then a taxi, but the. I realized you were headed down here, so I followed behind. He explained. I nodded before leaning back into the chair. I ran my hands to my hair before laughing out loud. I wasn't certain how I was expected to handle the entire thing.“Where are we going?” I asked as soon as he
