HAZEL STYLES POV

I woke up to a room filled with sweet scenting brightly colored flowers.

Admiring the burst of color in the room, I shifted onto my side and froze as my eyes locked onto Riven's from the chair facing my bed. His lips curved into a smile, his gaze trained on me with an unnerving intensity that had my heart skipping a beat when he slowly pushed forward.

"Riven" I gasped, and he got up from the chair, the suddenness of it sending a jolt of electricity through my body and making my breath catch in my throat as he dropped his hand on either side of me and leaned in.

"Good morning beautiful. Did you sleep well?"

His deep rumbly voice had my heart doing a flip in my chest.

Color rushed up my cheeks and I glanced away from him as I blushed. "Yes," I whispered, dragging in air into my lungs before forcing myself to meet his gaze. "Did you?"

He inched closer, one of his hands lifting to stroke my hair, and then he tucked a stray strand behind my ear, his touch light and gentl

    HAZEL STYLES POV What was Raphael doing here?He stood frozen, his eyes moving from mine to Riven's."Um, I didn't..." He stuttered, his eyes darting away from us to the wall.Groaning under my breath, I tried to get up, my hand pushing softly at Riven to get off of me, but his grip just tightened on my arms.My eyes moved to his, my brows arching as he continued to pin me down."Riven?" I whispered, blinking as his eyes darkened into an intense scowl that had my stomach flipping. Dear Lord, He looked so hot when he was pissed."Tell him to go away" he whispered, the warmth of his breath sending shivers down my spine.I shuddered In his arms, my breath catching in my throat. "I can't. He's already here. That would be rude"Riven's head dipped lower, his growl rumbling through my skin. "He is really tempting me to stick a knife in him, little rabbit" he whispered, his lips grazing the shell of my ear. "I don't know how much longer I can restrain myself" he breathed, his threat making

    LENA POV A FEW DAYS LATER.Riven and Hazel were already in the news as a couple, and as I stared at the picture that had been taken of them leaving the hospital, I couldn't help but smile.It was still so shocking that Hazel had said yes to Riven after the way she avoided him before all of this."The heart truly wants what it wants, doesn't it?" I muttered to myself, my eyes lingering on the ring Riven had gotten for her. It was so pretty; I wished I had one too. Hazel deserved all the love Riven showered on her because I knew just how much she'd suffered to get this far... I just hoped that from now on, all the bad energy would finally be replaced with only good onesSighing, I dropped the magazine on the table and then cupped my chin with my hand."When am I going to get my own prince charming, huh?" I asked, then sighed. "I want someone to be suffocatingly obsessed with me too."The alarm on my phone pinged and I glanced at it, my eyes widening."Oh damn, it's today" I got out an

    RIVEN BlACKWOOD POVI drove to a stop in front of the house and then glanced at Hazel as she stared at the building that stood before us, her eyes wide in awe.I grinned loving the reaction, knowing that it was real and not just play pretend.She turned to face me excitedly. "It's so beautiful," she got out then pressed her face to her palm, her voice soft and proud. "Do you make it a point to only buy the best houses on the market, Riven. Are you into real estate now".I smirked, my eyes fixed on her face, trying as much as I could to commit every detail to memory. "No," I answered, and she tilted her head, her brows dipping. "You're not?" She asked, genuinely curious.I nodded, my gaze dropping to the arch of my pale, smooth neck. My mouth watered as my gaze lingered. I wanted to sink my teeth into it. Tearing my eyes away, I met her gaze, my breath hitching at the hunger in her eyes. Did she notice me staring? Was she feeling the tension the same way I was? I licked over my lips

    LENA POV "This place looks sick," Raphael got out excitedly as we stepped inside the restaurant, his eyes moving around the space. "Are you sure this was supposed to be a romantic dinner date or a goth party"I let out a sigh, my eyes taking in the darkly lit deserted space. Raphael was right about the style of the place being more suited for a goth party, but where he found it cool, I found it weird and a bit scary.Also, why was there no one in sight? There was no smell of food or drinks either.I glanced around, sweat dotting my hairline, and my palms getting clammy. "Where's he though? And why is this place so empty? Do you think he rented out the whole place to surprise you?" Raphael asked, looking around.I faced him, my thumb pinching nervously on my forefinger. "If he did, then wouldn't you being here ruin everything?" I said, then dragged my hand through my hair. "I told you not to follow me, you should have listened""Hey, chill out, we haven't even seen the guy yet, so t

    HAZEL STYLES POV "This is not working" I glanced up from my food, my eyes widening a bit as my gaze met those of Liam. "What are you talking about? Don't you like the food pairing" I asked, my hands trembling a bit as I pointed to the food on the table. I knew he hated whatever I liked but I was starving and also a bit anxious so I'd ordered most of my comfort food."What do you think? Did you have to get all these dishes? You're always ordering like you're trying to add more fat to those you already have" My brows furrowed. "I just saw my therapist yesterday and he told me I was underweight... That's why I ordered..." "How could I forget," he said cutting me off with a roll of his eyes, "the baggage you have is endless. Aside from being an artist who doesn't have a career, you also have unresolved childhood trauma. Oh, Your brother is also out to get you." He let out an exasperated sigh. "Do you know how exhausting you are" His words hurt but I was already used to them, besides

    HAZEL STYLES POV Blood. There was blood dripping down his face. The debris of the broken vase clattered on the floor, the flower that had been in it falling at his feet. The man beside him, stared at Riven, his eyes like saucers.I stood frozen, my heart pounding so hard, that I was sure I was going to pass out. Riven gingerly raised his hand and touched his head, his stoic face scrunching when he noticed the blood, and then his eyes moved from it in search of the culprit. I took a step backward, my hand hitting the decorative vase at my side. The shattering sound was deafening and when I glanced away from the damage, it was to clash gazes with those of Riven. Staring at him head-on was disorienting, but as our gaze met and held, I couldn't look away.He smirked, then walked toward me, and the closer he got, the more intimidating he looked. He was tall. I was sure he was six feet, six inches tall, if not more. The pictures I'd seen over the years didn't do him any justice at all.

    RIVEN BLACKWOOD POVI watched as she ran, the urge to chase overwhelming. Such bewitching features. It made my blood run both hot and cold. She was an enemy, but who knew she was so alluring up close? Auburn red hair that accented her hazel eyes and a petite frame so frail, I was sure she would break if I handled her roughly. Would she though? My fingers itched to test out the theory. Her gaze had been fierce, so I bet there was fire in her. If I pushed hard enough, would she really break? And if I used just the right amount of strength, would she still bruise?I turned in the direction she ran, my hands squeezing into fists as I willed myself to stop."Patience Riven. Patience" I told myself, trying to calm the urge to hunt her down.My eyes blinked shut and I took in a deep breath. Her face flashed in my head, The perfect symmetry of her features and her pouty red lips was a dangerous combination that made me picture her in steamy precarious positions that made my throat dry and fo

    HAZEL STYLES POV "How could you be so stupid" Julian yelled as he threw the pictures in his hand at my face. They pooled around me, their crinkling sound slicing at my heart. "I'm sorry. I didn't know that..." "You don't know anything. Do you know how much I had to pay to stop your disgraceful act from being leaked on the media? I am trying to protect you and all you do is try as much as you can to jeopardize that. What the hell is wrong with you" "I am sorry..." "Your apology is not going to cut it. Our parents died because of you. I lost the only people who cared about me so why can't you live right huh? Do I have to die so you can be happy? I told you Liam was no good and for you to stay away from him. Why don't you ever listen? Look at all that mess I had to clean up. Why are you so stupid huh" Darkness swirled in my vision. He was right. I was stupid. I deserved this. I should have seen Liam for who he was. I'd just been so desperate... I'd wanted someone to love and suppo

    LENA POVRaphael was pissed, and it showed even in the way he strode ahead of me, his back ramrod straight, his hands balled up so hard, I could see his knuckles glistening white.He suddenly stopped in his tracks and then turned to face me, forcing me to stop, too. "Was that guy telling the truth? He can't possibly be her boyfriend right... I mean, did you see how violent he was... Hazel will never date someone like that... She literally lived alone because she couldn't stand Julian, and you're telling me she's dating him... He's part of the bloody Mafia!"I let out a sigh and then shook my head. "I don't think he punched you hard enough if you're still asking all these questions, Raphael.""Lena" he hissed, his eyes narrowing.I threw my hand up in the air. "What do you want me to say, Raphael. Do you want me to feed your delusions and tell you that both of them are not together and that he's probably forcing her to be with him? Well, they are together. They love each other and wer

    RIVEN BLACKWOOD POV A fire raged in my chest as I stared into her eyes. Our harsh breath mingled, the tension thick between us. Her eyes were wide with a mix of fear and anticipation, her body tense and trembling. I leaned in, my face just inches from hers. "Give in to me, little rabbit. You already know there's no escaping me" "And if I don't want to" she asked, looking up at me with a mixture of defiance and hunger in her eyes. Even though her refusal had my blood burning, I couldn't help but smirk as I saw the effect I was having on her. I leaned in even closer, my lips brushing against her cheek. "You think you can keep resisting me," I growled, my voice low and dangerous. "But you're wrong, Hazel. I've grown on you. You can't shake me off no matter how hard you try." She tried to pull away, her body struggling against my hold on her wrists. But I just held onto her tighter, my grip unyielding. "Struggle all you want, but you know you want me just as much as I want you." I

    HAZEL STYLES POV"You belong to me, Hazel" he growled, his eyes burning into mine.My breath hitched, his words making my heart start up a frenzied rhythm in my chest.I swallowed and watched as his gaze dipped to my throat, following the movement.I clutched the sheet harder, my pulse quickening the longer his gaze lingered, then he looked up, his eyes dark and intense and stealing the breath right out of my lungs. The connection between us sparked like a live wire as he searched my face, his pupils dilating slightly the longer he looked at me, and then he leaned in even closer."You are mine Hazel, don't ever forget that"His words had my heart jumping, the intensity of his stare thickening the air between us with an unspoken tension that made it difficult to breathe.He turned away from me, and I let out a sharp breath, realizing that I'd been holding my breath the whole time."Leave," he ordered and my gaze jerked to those of Raphael, who was staring at him dazedly from the floor

    HAZEL STYLES POV "I'm so happy you're awake Hazel. You have no idea what hell I've been through the past few days" he murmured against my hair, his arms squeezing me.Getting over my initial shock, I grabbed at the side of his shirt and pushed at his chest a bit so he'd let go, but he just held onto me tighter."Raphael," I called out, and he shook his head."Don't push me away Hazel... Please just let me hold you for a few more seconds," he begged, his voice muffled as he snuggled impossibly closer.I glanced at Lena, the shock on her face mirroring mine. Her jaw was literally on the floor as she stared at Raphael.Forcing myself not to freak out, I slowly reached up and then patted his back. "Alright then," I got out tentatively, my gaze darting from him to Lena, then back again. "Take your time... I guess," I said.My words seemed to make him happier. He let out a contented sigh, then dropped his weight against me, his hand rubbing over my back. I allowed myself to relax into his
