Leah's POV We just got to the event, and if I'm being honest I'm tense, I know I agreed to come to the party but I didn't know that it would be this tense.And the fact that I would see Aiden again, I don't know if I would be able to control myself because the last time I let my emotions get the best of me, and I don't want to disgrace or embarrass Damian in public.Then the car stopped at the entrance of the hall, I was still deep in my thoughts, I just kept staring.But suddenly I felt someone hold my hand I didn't want him to know I was nervous so I tried not to look shocked, as I turned to him."You would be fine," he said, squeezing my hand."Oh yeah, I'm fine," I said, masking my real emotion.We got down from the car, we entered the party holding hands, and immediately we walked in I noticed all eyes were on us.It was like everyone paused what they were doing and focused their eyes on us. There were surprises evident on people's faces.Why does everyone look surprised? Are th
Damian's POVI was engrossed in a discussion with some of my business associates, debating the finer points of a potential deal, when I suddenly turned to scan the room. That's when I saw Leah, standing across the way, engaged in a conversation with someone. Although I couldn't make out the person's face from where I was standing, I couldn't help but notice Leah's body language. Something about her body language screamed discomfort, and my instincts kicked in. I felt an overwhelming urge to intervene, to rescue her from the situation that seemed to be making her so uneasy. "Excuse me," I said politely, but firmly, as I subtly nudged the person blocking my path aside and walked towards Leah, my eyes fixed on her with a sense of concern.As I drew nearer, my eyes locked on the figure standing beside Leah, and my heart sank. It was her father, a man whose disdain for me was no secret. But in that moment, none of that mattered. All I could think about was Leah's well-being and getting
Leah's POVI seethed with anger, my mind reeling in disbelief. Damian, of all people, had the nerve to suggest that I wanted to go back to Aiden. How could he even think that, let alone say it out loud? Didn't he remember everything Aiden had put me through? The pain, the heartache, the humiliation? Didn't he recall how I had wanted to end my life because of Aiden's cruelty? Damian was right there on Aiden's wedding day, hearing every vile word he spat at me. And still, he thought I would willingly go back to that monster?The thought made my blood boil. How could Damian be so insensitive? Didn't he know me at all? Didn't he understand the depth of my scars? I felt betrayed, hurt, and angry all over again. The wounds I thought had healed were now ripped open, and I couldn't help but wonder if Damian had ever truly cared about me at all. His words cut deep, and I couldn't shake off the feeling that he was no better than Aiden, using my vulnerability against me.It was as if he was
Leah's POVAs I slowly opened my eyes, the unfamiliar surroundings caught me off guard. I scanned the room, and I realized I wasn't in my room.I had fallen asleep in Damian's roomA mix of surprise and curiosity coursed through me as I sat up, my mind foggy from sleep. I had never spent the night in Damian's room before, and the novelty of it all was both thrilling and unsettling. But as I wanted to stand up, I noticed a figure lying beside me.As I turned to face the figure beside me, my heart skipped a beat when I saw Damian.I was surprised, yet thrilled, to find him lying next to me. It was a moment I had secretly longed for, a chance to wake up beside him, to feel his warmth, and to bask in his presence. But it was a moment I thought would never come, as he always gently took me to my room, leaving me to sleep alone.But now, here he was, I felt a rush of excitement mixed with a hint of wonder.Had he finally changed his mind? Did he want to be close to me, to wake up togeth
Damian's POVAs we got to the beach house, a warm and welcoming smile greeted us.A friendly staff member, emerged from the entrance to guide us to our apartment."Welcome to Serenity Beach House!" they said, their voice as sunny as the day. One of them stepped forward, "My name is Rachel, and I'll be showing you to your home away from home." She said.As we walked, Rachel pointed out the various amenities and facilities available to us during our stay. "You have access to our private beach, outdoor pool, and fitness center," she explained. "And if you need anything at all, just give us a call. We're always here to help."Finally, we arrived at our apartment, a beautiful oceanfront retreat with a spacious balcony offering breathtaking views of the turquoise sea.Rachel handed us the keys and gave us a quick tour of the apartment, showing us where everything was and how to use the various appliances."Make yourself at home," she said, smiling. And with that, she bid us farewell, leavi
AIDEN'S POV"I assure you, gentlemen, I am willing and ready to buy the shares you are willing to sell. My company will be delighted to have a part of yours", I said, my voice hopeful." Mr. Aiden, the luminary concept appreciates your vigor and determination to be a part of our shareholders but unfortunately, we can't sell to you", one of the men explained." We already have plans to sell the shares to Mr. Damian and it will not be our company's reputation good to not act on our words", he added."But I have the higher standing because I am here and willing to begin and conclude the transactions now and I see Mr Damian nowhere around here. Business is supposed to be carried out with immediate urgency to avoid a decrease in value and loss", I told them, my eyes twitching.Rages seet within me but I exert control over it to avoid lashing out at this man. It would not help my standing."Not all business are to be carried out with immediate urgency, some require thoughtfulness and this i
LEAH'S POV Everything feels like a dream. The food, the weather, the room, the scenery, and the man all look amazing and some even taste better, if you know what I mean. I meant food, for those that are lost. My day always starts with the sight of Damian, naked and looking heavenly under the rays of the sun. I usually take my time to get my daily look at him, silently perusing every part of him, spending more time on the part that pleases me. When he stirs and opens his eyes, I do my best to look innocent and guilty at the same time. He will grab me and lift me unto himself with my legs straddling his hips.He would tease and tickle me, I would laugh causing him to compliment my laugh, my teeth, and my mouth and I would kiss him deeply, none of us caring about morning's breath.I will slowly gyrate my hips to wake up Big Daddy without breaking the kiss. He would groan into my mouth, causing my brain to shut down and my body to follow its awakened desires.The kiss will intensify
DAMIAN'S POVI shouldn't have said that but I don't think she knows what she is saying. It can't be. It has to be the blood-sucking intimacy, it makes people obsessed.But what if she does?Leah loving me?How can I be sure of it?This is not the first time it's happened and it was crazy settling it. It made me realize the fact that continuously feeding on one's blood causes the donor to become obsessed.It happened with Tiana after the first few times I fed from her and she lost herself to her obsession with me.She became so attached and would do anything to get me to bite her, I didn't realize what was happening till it got out of hand and I had to get her locked up.I had to keep her away from me for a long while to restore her sanity and self-control. After that, I decided to never feed on a particular donor for long.What if I stop feeding on her? Would she still feel the same way?Hard to tell."What? Of course, I do" she said, her voice breaking through the craziness of my t
