The living room was a mess.
“I am so not cleaning this up.” Kyle raises his hands. “We need to do something about the broken vase and the golf stick before Father comes back.”
[SAVINA]“Go Ahead, my wife,” He said to me in an amused tone.
[Dante]He knew that she was planning something.
[SAVINA]I stood close to Dante, trying to look like nobody. But it was impossible.
[DANTE]He stared hard at the veiled woman sitting on her knees. Dante wasn’t amused by her declaration. And Kaige Jin wasn’t exactly happy either.
[Savina]I came. Five times.
[Dante]There were no more tantalising sounds coming from the bathroom. He let out a breath of relief as he raised his head. Nothing was harder than this.
I stop narrating the story and glance at Harvey. He is gazing out of the car window. His nails are back to their normal shapes and his eyes are no longer red.“What are you?” I ask him.
[Savina]I shifted closer, wrapping my arm around a large, only to realise a second later that the pillow was too hard or too fleshy for a pillow. It also smelled good. How could a pillow smell good?
[Interlude]I stop and glance at Harvey. Sitting in his office again, I have a tornado going inside my heart. Sensing that I have paused my narration, he raises his head and meets my eyes. I look away, recalling the moment when Dante had left the room that day.Why do I still feel bad?I am not Dante’s wife. I am not his lover. I am not his woman. I belong to myself. I am self sufficient. I do not deserve men like Dante, Alphonse, or Kaige.But there is still an ache in my chest that won’t go away.So I don’t understand why I still want to cling on to Dante. Is it similar to the time I had clung on Raymond?
[Dante]However, the tumultuous ache didn’t leave him.Noises seemed to have blurred in the background like a lost ray of light that was trailing down from the sky. Kaige was furiously yelling at Alphonse who was looking at his feet and sighing. Savina shrugged, avoiding his eyes.Dante saw guilt in her eyes. Although she had owed him nothing, she was still feeling guilty. He could read human’s emotions easily, especially when he wanted to focus. Right then, she was in his focus. The ache was annoying in his chest, an evidence that he was indeed in love with the crazy woman.It was better if he said nothing. Dante left the room. He didn’t want Savina to see any strange emotions in his eyes. A
[Dante]“I didn’t expect this from you, Alphonse,” Kaige spoked before Dante could say a word.Dante rolled his eyes, but he remained quiet. Something was stirring in his heart. Something that felt better after Savina got off Alphonse’s lap. That ‘something’ was both familiar and unfamiliar. He had experienced it once, but it had never stayed with him for long. Was it love? He didn’t bother to cling to the feeling, and he hoped that the strange feeling would leave him. But it was impossible.His curse was slowly lifting. His heart was thawing, and he was feeling. When did he start feeling for this strange woman? To be honest, he could still pretend until the end that he didn’t feel anything for Savina. At the same time, the for
[Savina]When Dante came into the room, I had an urge to push Alphonse away and beg for mercy.The position was bad.I was sitting on Alphonse’s lap with my arms coiled around his neck. My skirt was lifted, thighs showing, and Alphonse’s one hand was right on it.His lips were close to mine, almost touching. Actually, he was quite stubborn, and it took me a while to seduce him. He was just about to kiss me when Kaige and Dante entered the room.They didn’t even knock. There was no gentlemanly bone inside them. And just why Kaige was looking at me as if he wanted to kill me? I could understand if Dante was offended since I was still his ‘wife’. Kaige
[DANTE]She was there. Alive. Too alive to his liking.Dante wished that he would have preferred it if she was dead or sitting in the same room with the undeads in the next room. If it was possible, he would love to gouge his eyes out by himself. Maybe the book should reset itself, or maybe he should forget everything.But he knew that forgetting was impossible unless Savina could fail again. Since it wasn’t possible, he let out a heavy sigh.Savina didn’t move. She looked at him with annoyance. Her sharp brows shoot up as if she was challenging him while sitting on Alphonse’s lap. Oh, only if she knew who Alphonse was or what kind of crimes he had committed.Nevertheless, he hated remembering how she had loved him while she couldn’t remember
[Dante]Dante rushed into the mansion, trying his best to steel his heart. He couldn’t smell blood except for the dead rotten blood of the undeads. Savina’s blood was too familiar to him. She had died three times
[Dante]As he had expected, Aloisia’s lair was right where it was previously. He knew that she would move to the lands of undeads soon. If his guess was right, there were undeads in the co
[Savina]Alphonse pushed me down on the bed. His body pressed against mine. His hands were on my waist, squeezing them hard as he delved his tongue into my mouth and sucked on my tongue. From a hesitating adult, he had turned
[Savina]I leaned closer and cupped his face, pressing my lips against his. Before I could continue, Alphonse broke away the kiss as he laid his hands on my waist and held me still. I couldn't move. He stared into my eyes and
