Evelyn’s POV “Dammit” I yelled as I threw the content of the glass cup I was holding, I couldn’t believe they were back together after everything I did to separate them, my stupid sister’s voice was all over the palace last night screaming at the top of her lungs. I am sure she badly wants me to hear, to prove that she and Dante were back together.As I stood there, my heart was pounding in my chest, I felt like a fool at that moment, after disgracing myself just to make Dante notice me he still went back to my sister. Anger surged through me like a wildfire, consuming every inch of my being.I felt a mix of emotions swirling within me, frustration, and anger. It was as if the ground beneath me had crumbled, leaving me stranded in a sea of disappointment. I had invested so much time and energy into keeping them away from each other, hoping that Dante would realize his feelings for me. But now, it seemed like my efforts were all in vain.
Dante’s POV“And she was like Vanessa you win,” Vanessa said mimicking her sister, “after saying that she hugged me, like who does that” she said laughing out loud. Evelyn has gotten to the pack safely although she won't admit it but I am sure she will like it there.“Vanessa I have to go now, I have an important meeting to attend,” I said to her as I stood up from the bed, I needed to meet up with the elders to find a way to prevent any further attack by the witches.“So soon, can’t this meeting wait,” Vanessa said with a frown on her face, she held my hands back, pouting her lips to prevent me from leaving. “No it can’t wait, but I promise I will be back as soon as possible, now stand up from the bed and go get dressed,” I said releasing her grip on my hand. If Vanessa has the opportunity to follow me wherever I go she will gladly. “What’s the need to put on a dress when you are just going to rip it apart” Vanessa teased, with a smile on her face, she was right because this was th
Chapter 51Vanessa’s POV“You are late for dinner,” Aphrodite said as she adjusted my dress, I wondered why it was a necessity for me to always show up at the dinner table early.“I know as always, it's not like anything will happen if I decide not to go,” I said teasing Aphrodite, “As the lady of the house it is a must for you to eat dinner with your husband” she replied, she always has a reply for everything.“Okay fine, you win,” I said as I stood up from the chair and looked myself in the mirror one last time before leaving the room.“Uhm there is something I would like to tell you before you get to the dining room,” Aphrodite said as she followed me from behind.“Not now Aphrodite, I don't have time for gossip” I replied dismissing her gossip, anytime she says she has something to tell me it's always about the gossip in the kitchen and I don't care about it anymore. “Okay my lady,” she said, as we both made our way to the dining hall, when I got there Dante was already seated a
Chapter 52Vanessa’s POVI ran into my room and slammed the door shut angrily, I couldn't believe what had just happened, how could Dante do this to me, what have I ever done to deserve this? I knew he told me that he was in love with someone when I got here but I thought he had forgotten about her and he now had feelings for me, but that was me just being delusional.My mind raced with thoughts and emotions that threatened to consume me as I sat in front of the mirror. I couldn't help but compare myself to her, questioning why Dante had chosen her over me. It was like a constant loop of self-doubt and insecurity playing in my mind.I looked in the mirror, my eyes tracing every line and imperfection on my face. A wave of sadness washed over me as I wondered if I was not beautiful enough, not captivating enough to hold Dante's attention. I scrutinized my features, comparing them to Willow's, wondering why I was never enough, my first mate rejected me in an instant and my second mate wa
Chapter 53Vanessa’s POVAs I sat in the garden, surrounded by the vibrant colors and soothing scents of nature, my mind wandered to the drastic changes in my life. The once blissful moments shared with Dante had been overshadowed by the painful reality of him bringing his arrogant girlfriend to the palace.The gentle breeze brushed against my skin, offering a momentary respite from the turmoil within. I closed my eyes, allowing the fresh air to fill my lungs and clear my thoughts. The garden had always been my sanctuary, a place where I could find solace and gather my strength.Amid the blooming flowers and the soft rustling of leaves, a heaviness settled in my chest as I thought about the moment Dante yelled at me, he didn't even bother to ask what had happened, he just automatically assumed that I was the one at fault, not her. It was as if the ground had been pulled from beneath me, leaving me feeling lost and betrayed. How could he have moved on so quickly? Did our time together
Vanessa’s POV“Please my lady, Alpha Dante specifically told me to prepare you for dinner” Aphrodite pleaded after I told her that I wasn't going to come down for dinner, the last time I had dinner with Dante was the day he brought Willow to the house, I knew I wouldn't be able to stand their nonsense so I decided to stay away.“Why does he care if I come for dinner or not, his mistress is there to entertain him” I replied as I sat upright crossing my hands below my chest area.“He cares about you my lady, but he has been busy for the past few days,” Aphrodite said defending Dante, I don't know why she only finds the need to defend him even when she knows that he is wrong.“Busy with his mistress I guess, and Aphrodite you are supposed to be on my side, I am the one who is suffering here” I scolded her, I couldn't believe she was taking that man's side after what he did to me.“I am sorry my lady, please just come for dinner, please!” Aphrodite pleaded, but I wasn't buying it, Dante h
Vanessa’s POV“Dante” I moaned in his mouth, I wanted to pull away but I couldn't fight the burning desire surging through my body.The kiss was slow and gentle, his lips were so soft and I could feel the passion in them. His tongue came out of his mouth and he slid it into my mouth as we kissed, I was surprised by this but I didn't stop him.I was so confused, about why he was kissing me, I mean we were just arguing about his girlfriend, and this next he was smooching me while she was downstairs waiting for him. He pulled away from the kiss and looked at me with those deep cute eyes that can make a woman go nuts. "I'm sorry for what happened tonight, you didn't deserve that." He said to me calmly“You are?” I asked as tears rolled down my eyes, he was deceiving me again and I knew it but for the main time, I would like to think that his apology is genuine. “Yes,” he said as he put his hand on my cheek and wiped away the tears that were running down my face.He took off my shirt and
Vanessa’s POVI sat in the tranquil garden, my heart heavy with sorrow as I watched from afar Dante and Willow, lost in a world of their own, oblivious to the pain they were causing me. The gentle breeze whispered through the trees, but its soothing touch couldn't ease the ache in my chest.It's been almost two weeks since I last spoke to Dante, after he made love to me and left me in the room like it meant nothing to him, I had decided to avoid him at all cost. I spent most of my time in my room or the garden away from their nonsense but it seems like they are determined to rub it on my face today.As they laughed and embraced each other, I felt a wave of sadness wash over me, no matter how hard I tried not to feel I just couldn't help it. I am madly in love with this man and there is nothing I can do about it. Sometimes I couldn't help but wonder why her, and why not me. What was so special about Willow that made him choose her? Doubts gnawed at me, eroding my self-esteem.Every sto
