ADONIS’s POV.

Walking out of the room, the smirk on my face disappeared and the image of her confused face settled somewhere in my head.

She looked so confused when I kissed her and when I told her to fall in love with me, I mean I would also be dumbfounded if the reverse was the case but right now that’s the only thing I could do. To make her mine and rid myself of this curse. Truth be told, I could already taste the sweet taste of victory at the tip of my tongue.

She was seated on my bed when I walked into my bed and I was not surprised, she had become a frequent guest ever since I brought scarlett to the house.

“Something tells me that you are beginning to love my company, goddess” I said, “you do not miss a chance to meet this unworthy subordinate of yours”

“That might be true” she said, “but I want to be actively involved in everything about that child. She is a human after all and I can do little about her she warms my heart”

I turned to her for a split second.

    ADONIS’s POV.I stood afar watching as Scarlett held onto the old lady’s hand, waiting for the coffin to be lowered into the grave. She was dressed in a black gown that stopped just before her knees and her long hair was pulled up in a neat ponytail, her shoulders kept shaking and I knew she was in tears. I wanted to go further and take her home but I kept wondering how little Fiona would feel seeing her killer standing over her grave or what I would tell Scarlett when she asked where I left last night. She was in so much pain yesterday but I couldn't stay to console her, I couldn't risk transforming in front of her and making her more scared than she already was. I just left her in the house and asked the workers to keep an eye out for her.I stared down at my wrists and heaved a sigh, the injury from the chain was gone but i could still feel it in my bones, i could still hear my own screams as I struggled to break those chains but Ashely knew what he was doing when he said he would

    SCARLETT’s POV.I sat in my thoughts for close to an hour as the words of Mr Fenrir continued to ring in my head, he didn’t look like he was joking, he was damn serious and I could see it in his eyes and the way he has been acting since we entered the house. My life has changed dramatically over the past couple of days and I was not so sure how to react. I was brought here under the assumption that he was my guardian and now he wanted me to love him amidst this Fiona saga. It felt like my mind didn’t even belong to me again because I was not sure what to do at this point.I was seated on the couch, my attention on the television in front of me but I was not even paying attention to the screen in front of me.Finally, I heard his footsteps from the top of the stairs and my breath hitched.Mr Fenrir was dressed in a pair of black pants and a crisp white shirt which was neatly tucked into the pants, his hair was left to fall in ringlets beside him and oh my gosh, he looked like someone

    SCARLETT’s POV.The drive back home was a silent one. None of us said anything to each other after I asked him to stay and he didn’t say anything. I hate to come off like I was being a disturbance so I didn’t say anything again.As soon as we pulled over, I thanked him and made to climb out but he grabbed a hold of my hand and I saw how his chest rose and fell against his crisp white shirt.As soon as his hand came in contact with mine, that feeling enveloped me again, it always came at random when I was not expecting it.It felt like Something dangerous and nerve wracking was brewing underneath everything and him.“I can’t stay with you tonight, sweetheart” he cut into my thoughts.“Why? I wanted to ask him but I decided against it, “it’s fine, I was stupid enough to ask you to stay” I gave an awkward smile, “what the heck was i thinking when I asked him to stay. He could do as he pleased, it wasn’t like he had to answer to me.“I am sorry for asking you to stay, I was just….“I prom

    ADONIS’s POV..“Ughhhh” I groaned loudly as the pain continued to course through my entire body, the sound of my own bones cracking and forming into another shape held me spellbound. Day after day, week after week and now years after years has still not gotten me used to my original form.Looking at my reflection back in the small lake that surrounded me, I couldn't help but notice how hideous I look.This is the same cave that has been housing me for decades, shielding me away from the world that has been revolving around me.I struggled to break my own chains but once again, Ashely did a good job in securing me on a tight leash. No matter how much I tried, I couldn’t break the chains but I knew it was part of my own resilience. I didn’t want to hurt anyone, I didn’t want someone else to die because of me.“Do you see yourself?” Her voice filtered through my ear and she appeared just beside me like she wanted to tame me and make me dance to her tunes,“Can you see the real you?”“Why

    SCARLETT’s POV.By the time I got ready for school, the image of how Mr Fenrir looked earlier that morning had already sunk deep into my head.He was reeking of blood and I was sure it was a lot of it. I kept wondering how many people were injured because the smell was very pungent.A knock on the door cut into my train of thoughts and I heaved a sigh, the door opening slowly and his head popped in before his whole body.He was clad in a pair of navy blue suit, his hair was pulled back in a neat bun with a clean undershave.For a brief moment I let myself ogle at him, wondering how he got so lucky to be this beautiful because handsome wouldn’t do any justice to him.Luckily he was reeking of blood anymore but his cologne drew me in, I found myself breathing in and out quite often.“You are staring” he said, I have become so accustomed to these lines.“I thought you would have gone to work by now”“What kind of boyfriend would I be if I left my girlfriend and went to work?”Despite th

    SCARLETT’s POV.I didn’t stop running until I got to the gates and that was when I stopped running. I could feel the adrenaline coursing through my veins, that feeling enveloped me again.How could he kiss me in front of everyone, how could he do that?The more I thought about it, the more upset I got aside from the fact that everyone was already staring at me like I was some kind of alien.Leaning on the wall near the gate, I tried to steady myself but my heart kept racing and pounding against my rib cage and I was one minute away from passing out.Flagging down a taxi, I immediately boarded and off it went, I didn’t want him to come and meet me here at any cost.After about thirty minutes, the car pulled up in front of his gate and I alighted. It was better to confront him here than in front of the whole school.Paying the fare, I turned around and sauntered into the gates and up to my room.The only thing I wanted to do now was just lay in my bed and just…I wasn’t sure how long I

Wasn’t she aware of the kind of danger she was walking into?Rolling my eyes to the back of my head, I alighted from the car and walked over to the cab which was parked a few feet away from my car. She couldn’t even be discreet.I knocked on the car door and I saw her give an awkward smile before alighting.“Going somewhere?” I asked with a raised brow.“I was just on my way to Maria’s” she lied, “I didn’t know you were going the same route, I would have asked you to drop me off”For a moment I kept looking at her and I couldn’t help but laugh, was she kidding me right now? Was she trying to use reverse psychology on me?“You didn’t tell me you were going over to Maria’s”“Uhmmm” Scarlett’s scra

He asked me to bring you to the venue around 8pm.The frown on my face intensified, 8pm?“Isn’t he going away tonight?”Before he could answer, my phone began to ring and when I saw who was on the line, I let out another sigh.“Hello”“Why do you

How could he look into my eyes and ask me to put a fucking dagger in his chest? How would I even be able to weild a dagger against him. My heart broke as his words continued to echo in my head.“I am not going to fucking do that” I spit in anger before slamming the bathroom door shut.I slumped on the ground as hard bitter tears rolled out of my eyes.I wasn’t even over our baby’s death yet and he was already asking me to kill him? Did he want to leave that bad? Was he so tired of me?“Baby?” His voice called out to me, just outside the door, “I know you can hear me”“Go away” I hissed, “I am not in the mood to talk to you. How could you ask that of me? How could you ask me to kill you”“Sooner or later, you would have to do that, scarlet” I heard him also slump on the ground too, his back ti the wall.“You and I know we can’t keep me a

It had been a while since I saw all their faces but that didn’t mean I didn’t know what was going on in my company.

    SCARLET’s POV.The two of them sat staring back at me, Ashely’s jaw was still on the floor. He looked shocked and surprised, every emotion that one could actually think of while Adonis kept a stoic face. He was upset, really upset and I have been trying to talk to him but he hasn't said a word to me since I told him about what I read.They both couldn’t find it in the diary which kind of made me wonder if it was kind of a classified thing for me. How could they not see it when I could?“So you are saying you tried this out based off of something you wanted to experiment? Are you fucking kidding me right now?”“But here is he” I said to them, “nothing happened, at least we know he still has two more times where he won’t be able to transform”“You put your life on the fucking line” Ashely half yelled, “what if you read wrong and you failed”“But I didn…“You know what?” Adonis finally spoke, his tone curt, “I have been away from the office for too long, i should probably going in today”

Pain tugged at my chest, I hated the fact that I couldn't do anything about the pain he was feeling.“Scarlet?” His voice filled my ear and my eyes opened wide, making me pull away from him.“Your memories are back?” I asked, surprise etched on my face, “do you remember me? Your scarlet?”I was searching his entire body even if I didn’t know what I was searching for.“Talk to me, do you remember me?”“Why didn’t you run faster?” He asked while cupping my face, “I could have killed you babe, i could have done something awful to you” a tear sipped out of his eyes, “I was not in my fucking mind and u dared to touch you with those hands of mine.
