Elle's POV
We had driven in the carriage and in barely a few minutes, we arrived at the Rage mansion. I understood from what I had been hearing from the village people who gossiped aloud that this was actually the second Rage mansion. There was the original one and this one. I didn't know the history behind the building of this second one as it was unheard of for a second noble clan house to

Elle's POVHow dare this noble vampire male speak to me that way? I seethed to myself as I went up the stairs after Anconeus. Well that's what the annoying noble vampire down there had called him.
Xander's povThe nerve of that peasant.The nerve of that mouthy devastatingly beautiful peasant.
Elle's POVWith Anconeus gone, I moved to the door to check the corridors leading to the room as subtly as I could and there was no one around.

Elle's POVThe gaze of Lord Alexander's smolding grey eyes was all I thought about as they closed the large wooden door leading to Lady Alexia's room behind them.

Xander's pov"Oh Xander!!" Elle exclaimed and threw herself at me, encasing me in a very warm and very comfortable hug taking me by surprise.O
Xander's povThis morning had been intense. I was so not expecting Elle to react that way. The funny part is I don't even know what I had done wrong. I did not think of her as weak. At all. She was actually much stronger than the rest of us. Or maybe, in a way, her strength was her weakness.
Elle's povI walked through one of the secret pathways in Xander's estate greatly missing him as he was away on council business. I prayed he was safe and his plans were successful.
