“Get the fuck off me,” I yell at the guards still holding me back.
They release me and I straighten my jacket. I turn to face Igor and shake my head.
“Don’t invite me shit like this again. You’ve crossed one hell of line by making this man one of us. He is not and never will be.”
Igor stares back at me with disapproval. I know I’ve crossed a line too he might not forgive by being disrespectful, but I don’t fucking care.
“Animal,” Jason coughs when he regains the ability to talk. He gives me a mocking smirk as if he’s won and I’ve lost. “He’s in love with my daughter and he’s pissed because he wants what he can’t have.”
Deep down I am, but I don’t say it.
I just walk out and leave them.
When I reach home an hour later I want to rip the place apart. Nothing is going right for me and I can see it’s set to continue spiraling out of control.
Within minutes of me arriving there’s a little knock on my door.
I’m tempted not to answer it because I’m not in the mood to see anyone.
Then I realize there’s only one person who would come and see me at this time and knock like that.
I open the door and see the same woman I was warned to stay away from standing before me.
I always think of her as the goddess because of her beauty, but right now she looks like an angel to me.
After all that’s happened today, this is another chance to put an end to this.
But just like always I can’t.

Serenity
I stare back at Dante, my heart rising up to my throat as I try to compose myself.
I’ve been going crazy all day with worry and my mind has been a colossal mess. I haven't been able to shake the angst that Matthew's words created.
The worry that what Dante and I shared might not have been real was turning me inside out and I just needed to see him. I needed to see his eyes and feel his soul, just to know that he wanted me for me. Nothing more.
As those eyes take me in with warmth, brimming with adoration I find all the evidence I need that it was real.
I sense nothing fake about him. Looking at him now, I know in my heart that
there was no ulterior motive behind anything he did to be with me.
I’m so overjoyed my soul jumps with delight and my heart soars into the heavens.
“Hey, baby.” Dante brushes his finger along my cheek and presses a kiss to the bridge of my nose.
“I’m sorry for just turning up, I was worried,” I stutter, unable to keep the emotion out of my voice.
“It’s okay, Printsessa. At least I get to see you again.”
Printsessa. Even hearing the endearment is more soothing than ever.
“Come here.” He pulls me in for a hug and the moment my body is flush against his I inhale him, breathing in his scent of power and safety.
He closes the door and guides me into the living room, keeping me close with his big strong arm slipped around me.
