CASSIUS’S POVGetting angry and dropping her off the road was never my plan, but who cares?Alessia had the guts to say shuts about me, and expected me to stay calm? Fuck! I can't!I might be fucking her and calling her Bunny, but that doesn't change who I am.I'm Cassius fucking Riven, the Satan's heir and the Mafia lord of Black Stone clan.After I told her to get down from my car, I drove off at full speed, but stopped on the road.I punched the car's glass out of anger.The sight of blood calmed me down, so after I punched the glass window, the sight of my blood calmed me down.“ Fuck you, Cassius!” I gritted and held the steering, making a U-turn, back to where I had left her on the street, but she was nowhere to be found.My heart skipped a beat for a second, until I saw Cece's car from a distance, only I was relieved then.I was relieved that CeCe had come to pick her up.Maybe it was for the best.I needed to fight off all my enemies, so they won't come at my valuable possessi
ALESSIA'S POVThroughout the hangout with Nathaniel, I wasn't feeling myself.It was as if my body was there with them, but my mind was somewhere else.I couldn't concentrate and kept doing things clumsily.“ Are you okay, Alessia? Do you want to return home?” Nathaniel asked and I quickly nodded.We had come to the park to hangout, but because of me, the hangout turned out to be boring.No matter how hard I tried to play along and pretend I was happy like every other person in the park, it didn't seem to work.“ Okay, let's take you home.” Nathaniel said and led the way to his car.“ Alessia, my dad called for me urgently, so I will be spending the night over at his place.” CeCe told me and didn't wait for my reply before she ran off.It was awkward with only Nathaniel and I, as I kept picking on my fingers, and praying that we get to my apartment as soon as possible.Even when Nathaniel tried to bring up conversation to ease the tension in the car, I ended up ruining everything.“ I
CASSIUS'S POVI felt so fulfilled with Alessia by my side.The peace I felt transcended every other thing.I thought I could survive without seeing her, but it seems, I couldn't.For two weeks, it felt like a part of me was missing.I felt shallow in my heart, and couldn't think of doing anything right.Everything I did for two weeks reminded me of her.“ Did you also miss me?” Alessia asked, looking up from my chest and I chuckled.“ I won't be here if I didn't miss you.” I replied, twisting her hair playfully, while she drew invisible circles on my chest.“ I wanted to hate you…” She stopped and sat upright to stare deep into my eyes. “ No, I tried to hate you, but I couldn't. No one can feel the void in my life. I hate how you crawled your way into my life and also crawled out without permission.”As she spoke, I could feel her voice getting strained, like she would cry any minute from now.“ Hey, hey, no tears.” I warned and she nodded like a child and lay back on my chest.“ Will
CASSIUS POVAfter fucking Alessia until she couldn't walk or move about with her legs, we both fell asleep, but the ringing of my phone woke me up.With a groan, I picked up the call and answered it.The call was from Dragon.“ What is it, Dragon?” I asked, my voice husked and deep.“ Your brother is back.” He said and all the sleep wiped off my eyes.“ Which of my brothers?” My jaw hardened and my hold on the phone tightened.I get sensitive at the mention of my brothers, since I have two.I wouldn't like to talk about any of them.“ The younger one. Banks.” Dragon replied, and my hold on the phone loosened.“ Why is he back? Didn't he say he wants to finish his college education in Australia?” I asked.“ He said he is tired of Australia, so he will further his education here in Italy at NeverLine College.” Dragon replied and I dug my fingers into my hair with a sigh.“ What is wrong with that bastard?” I gritted.“ I will be back soon.” I replied and hung up.Turning around, Alessia
BANK'S POVAfter our encounter the previous night after my return from Australia, I never set my eyes on Cassius.It was more like I stayed out of his sight and lane.I didn't return to anger him, I returned because I was sick and tired of Australia and I had to further my education.I decided to come to Italy to further my education, and I will be attending NeverLine College.Most of my childhood friends attend college, so it would be easy for me to adapt.Even if none of them attend NeverLine College, I can adapt on my own.No one sees the inner side of me, not even Cassius or my other brother.But unfortunately, the first person to see the devilish side of me, was the girl who I helped when she was about to get raped, last night.The look on her face was thrilling and fascinating.She was so pale and blood-drained, and that look of fear got me more excited.As a predator, I need to instil fear in my prey.“ Everything you need has been prepared. All you have to do is to attend coll
