After returning to the room, Asher took a bath and went to sleep.
Probably because he drank a little too much tonight, Asher didn't realize there were other women in the room until he lay down.
He was slightly stunned. In the darkness, Asher could not see the woman's face. She turned over and hugged him. The girl murmured, "Good bear, don't make any noise. Just sleep."
Asher was frozen.
The woman had a very familiar smell, the same as that person...
Probably because of the alcohol, Asher didn't move, lying down with Nora and falling asleep.

READ TO FIND OUT ✍️

My mind had been frantic throughout out the night. I had done something unforgivable not to mention killing clan blood in the process. Wasn't I supposed to not be able to feel love or to care? Wasn't I supposed to be unfeeling, unnerving? Then why did I save her? I thought I didn't have a heart since the night of my impurification but now, the thought of a vampire and a human falling in love had been pasted on my mind and nothing that I did could pry my thoughts from her beautiful face. I quickly pushed the thoughts away and locked them up in the deepest darkest corner of my mind.
I could still hear her echoing screams, and the image of her pale, terrified face was smeared on the front of my vision. My palms were sweaty, in fact; I had been in a nervous state since last night… I put my hand into my jacket pocket and pulled out the hard rectangular card; it was a student ID card. It had fallen out of her purse when I saved her from her nigh death. Dawn, her name was Dawn. The face on the ID looked much younger than the girl I had saved but I could see the evident resemblance.
One question still troubled my mind though, it was like an ache in my head that wouldn't go away no matter how hard I tried not to think about it; would she love me if she knew what I was, a demon, a monster, a vampire?
I was alone, good! Everyone was out. If I looked any of them in the eye I was sure they'll see the guilt and fear that swirled and billowed in me. The only thing that troubled me more than the fact that I had violated a general clan hunt was the fact that she knew about our existence now, and only God knows how long it will be before the others found out. And killed her along with me.

"Chloe's,Do you know that Ethan is getting married too? His wedding is on the same day as yours," Evelyn said as her grip on the steering wheel tightened.
A frozen smile appeared on the corner of Chloe's mouth in an instant. In the end, she shook her head and looked out the window.
The green light came on, and the car started moving. Evelyn looked ahead, unable to help but recall the past.
"Back in school, you two were so high-profile. Everyone said that if you two ever separated, neither of you would survive it," she slowly said. "But who would have thought that you would actually break up."
"People grow up..." Chloe lowered her eyes, her voice barely audible.
Listening to this, Evelyn didn't bring up the topic again.
On the way, Chloe opened her mouth several times, wanting to ask who Ethan was marrying, but in the end, she never uttered the question.
At the bridal shop, she went to the fitting room to try on wedding dresses, while Evelyn sat on the sofa waiting.
Suddenly, a familiar male voice echoed in her ears. "This one will do." The man's tone was casual, his deep and charming voice resonating. Evelyn's expression changed, instantly recognizing the man by his voice. The man was Ethan Blackwood!

A high-society romance where pretense turned into reality.
Van, the heir to a top-tier fortune and a regular on the front page of the Wall Street Journal, had been mocked for being perpetually single, with even rumors swirling about his "dysfunction."
Winnie, a Hollywood superstar desperate to escape her constant barrage of scandals, encountered this billionaire worth tens of billions. To her surprise, Van presented her with an unexpected proposal:
"Pretend to date me for a year. You won't have to do anything else. I'll pay you $100 million after taxes."
She planned to laugh it off but couldn't ignore the man's chiseled features—the way his shadowed face was lit up as he casually raised an eyebrow and lit a cigarette in the glow of firelight, his voice steady and laced with danger.
She remembered their first meeting in a torrential downpour—the man reclining in a silver Maybach, eyes half-closed, exuding charm yet utterly unattainable. She also remembered later, when everyone had believed him to be unshakable and untouchable, he had appeared alone, worn and weary, at her remote desert film set, quietly asking:
"Do you really have to shoot this kiss scene?"
Behind this contract lay something far deeper than money—a fixation, a love that had turned real, or perhaps an irresistible force neither of them had recognized.
$100 million had set the stage for a high-stakes battle of love and hate that would ultimately unravel.

With abashed steps, she walked into the living room, already grunting before her mother started ranting. Ummah examined her from head to toe before she scoffed as she shook her head in disbelief. What sort of stubborn child does she have? Among her four daughters, Hidayah was the only one giving her a tough time. And she always questioned herself for making Hidayah her favourite child at the same time treating them with equal love.
Hidayah pretended as if no one was in the living room and started walking towards the stairs. 'Hidayah come back here!" Ummah instructed her. Hidayah hesitated before she halted and slowly turned to look at Ummah. 'I called your friend, Yasmeen and she told me you guys were done with your exams for the day since 12 noon. Now look at the time."
Hidayah swallowed the anger and heaved a sigh. She needn't to be on her mother's bad side that night. At least for the sake of Adam and the party they were going to attend tonight. 'Something came up and I had to stay in school and tackle it." Without waiting to hear more of her mother's rants, she walks off to her room.
Ummah looked at her retreating back and shook her head. She believed it was a trial and she would surely pass it.

The sane can turn you insane.❞ Anger. That's all he feels but when a certain kind of light sheds on his life, resistance is the solution. She binds him in her chains and returns him from the anger to the light. She is his own personal angel. She plays the piano and he's on her heart keys over again. All rights reserved.

Zoe's POV…
Tunnnn Tunnn Tunnnn .I opened my eyes to look at the wall. 10 am. Fuck I overslept again.
"Mummaaaaaaaa" I shouted getting out of the bed.
"I am late again." I shouted again. I couldn't get out of the bed because of my blanket. Its wrapped around me like a snake around its prey.
My mom entered the room with her hands crossed on her chest. "It's weekend. And you graduated few months back." She spoke.
I froze. Yes, I already graduated, I thought I was late for college. OH god. I looked at her with I am sorry" face.
"Come down, have breakfast. Say goodbye to your brother, he is leaving." She ordered.
"Yeah, in a minute" I sat there for a while rubbing the sleep out of my eyes.
I graduated few months back. Even with 8.6 GPA I always get rejected in the interview. While all other fellow mates have already found the job. My family don't want me to work but I want to.

Lucy opened her eyes and saw a clean room filled with the smell of disinfectant water. Only then did she remember that she had just donated a kidney to her younger sister. The anesthetic has only just worn off.
Just then, the door of the ward opened and a slender man walked in.
When Lucy saw the man, an excited smile appeared on her pale face.
"Smith, you came to see me..."
Lucy's tone was weak, but tried to make every word clear.
She stretched out her hand somewhat hard, wanting to get Smith Lu's response.
But what she could never have imagined was the bad news that followed...
"Lucy, did you know that your family is bankrupt?" Smith indifferently ignored Lucy's outstretched hand, and walked to sit on the sofa by the window.
"What are you talking about? It's impossible, my family has been going well before, and nothing bad has happened recently. How is that possible? Smith, you have to save my family..."
Lucy was so worried that she even could not breathe. And when she asked for help, Smith just watched indifferently.
Gradually, Lucy noticed something, tried to calm herself down, and sat up slightly to look at Smith.
"I have helped you to acquire your family's company, and your property transfer letter has been notarized. I never thought you would love me this much that you're willing to give up all your possessions, but I am here to divorce you today."
Divorce?
Property transfer letter?
Was that prenuptial agreement actually a property transfer letter?
But she didn't know anything about it.
Although they had been married for just a few months, not even six months.
Even Smith almost never came home, she still cleaned the house every day, made his favorite meals and waited for him to come home.
Now she had just gone through surgery and he didn't say a word of concern or a greeting to her.
He only set foot in her ward to get a divorce...

As they openly say 'life isn't fair', well for me, that's exactly the definition of my own life...not until I reached the age of 18, where I signed the most stupid arrangement and contract in my life.
Do you know what consist of that 'so-called' arrangements? Well, let me tell you... it's just me and my name who and which is going to be tied 'contractually' to the end of the name of my jerk of a (so-called) husband.
You heard that---Contractually? Yes. We're just going to be 'contractually 'married' for five years.. for five long years. And since it's only for five years, we don't have to act like those typical husbands and wives or a lovey-dovey-couple that you can see everywhere holding each other's hands while walking, hugging, kissing.. and ohh.. eating each other's face. Because that's exactly the opposite situation of our 'marriage'.
He hates me with all his guts and the same with me, although I really don't know why and where his hates coming from.
So, here I am... Arriana Angela Kelley- Smith, married to Alexander Jonathan Smith who is known to be one of the successful and richest bachelor 'slash' womanizers in the whole business state of California.
Hmmp! little did they know, he was already married 'to me' four years ago.

"Lexy, stop!"
The woman wiped her eyes bitterly. She walks out of the building and walks to her car near the entrance.
Opening the car door, she ignored the shouts of the man who just walk out of the building in large strides.
"Lexy!" The man roared before gripping his hair in frustration.
"Brett..." A small voice called out coquettishly.
Brett turned around and looked at the woman in front of him in anger and disgust. His cold eyes were wide open, and his lips were curled upside down in disgust. He looked at the woman with killing intent in his eyes. His eyes flash red for a second before he gritted his teeth and turn his head around. Looking anywhere but her.
He clenched and unclenched his fist, trying to calm himself down from exploding.
A few moments after, "Scram." he said before walking to his red Audi car without looking back at the woman who stood frozen at the entrance of the Night Hotel.
Avilla gritted her teeth as she watched Brett's car disappear from her sight. But, upon recalling Lexy's reaction when she saw them just now, a sinister smile appeared on her face.
"Brett is mine. Trash would only be trash." her eyes turned vicious as she looks at the dark sky.

Loving my boyfriend's best friend was one of the greatest feelings I had always wanted to get rid of. Harry never looked at me the way Shawn did but as a sister and a friend. So I decided to stick to that but every time I look at him, I'm unable to control these feelings I have for him. I know it's wrong to have these feelings for him but honestly he was the first boy I would ever loved. Shawn was second. I thought Harry leaving for England will help matters but now he's back and I know the worst is bound to happen.

Before Lauren Jones's hand touched the bedroom door, she had heard the sound of people having sex in the room. A woman's deep moan was mixed with a man's low gasps that she couldn't be more familiar with.
Lauren frowned, held back her hand, and kicked the door open.
The two entangled bodies in the room made her feel nauseous, so she turned her head in disgust, covering her mouth and nose.
The lean and handsome man on the bed stopped, glanced coldly at the uninvited guest at the door, and slapped the woman under him on the plump buttocks, "Get out."

In their 6-year marriage, Nora never succeeded in making Austin fall in love with her. Upon learning of her stage-IV cancer, she only begged for ten months. "After ten months, I will divorce you. Please, don't hate me." "What game are you playing?" "I'm tired and want to be free." Childhood sweethearts grew old as time passed. Nora loved Austin for 13 years, while Austin gave all his love to someone else. Austin decided to divorce Nora, who was suffering great pain from illness. "Austin, can you wait a little longer?" "Nora, don't love me anymore." In Austin's world, Nora was a restraint, but losing her felt like losing his heart. When all memories surfaced, Austin woke up and realized that the person he loved was always Nora. Nora died during surgery on the operating table, leaving behind their child. "I'm tired; I can't love you anymore. In the next life, let's not meet again. We forgive each other. From now on, we owe each other nothing!" Austin regretted not realizing it sooner and closed off his heart, living each day as if it were the last until one day. "Sir, I am Hannah, not Nora."

Valentina opens her eyes to see the face of the man she love with all of her heart for nearly three years.
It was a wonder how they still managed to stay together for so long when she recalled the number of fights and arguments they've gone through.
He's a handsome man and a rich man as a plus. There are so many women in the world he can choose and will surely make a beeline just for a day with him.
And he chooses her.
A normal woman or so she thought.
Valentina Rodriguez.
22 years old.
Valentina came from a middle-class family, and she liked to put it like that.
Her father, Andrew Rodriguez, owned his own company, and her mom, Lovy Arden, owned her own company. So, they merged the company after marriage and became one of the most famous company ever joined.
She has four siblings.
Mason, the eldest, Peter the second, she's the third and Anne the youngest of them.
When her mother and father said they wanted to retire, she practically tried to jump into the sea.
When they announced Mason and Peter to take over, she cried to the sky shouting, ‘Thank you for blocking me away from this busy worlds...!'
He's a good man and has an excellent looking figure. His body is what all women fantasized about in their heads.
His abs, oh, no.
She drooled at the sight of it.
It is his reward for working out after work if he's not busy.
That is one of the reasons why they fight and argue a lot.

Aviva~~~
I sat on the ground looking at the sight in front of me.
I cried again and again.
"Why did you leave us?"I screamed to the top of my lungs.
" why us" I screamed a gain this time my lungs felt painful but not compared to my heart.
" why did you have to leave us?"I said in lower tone this time lowering my head and looking down at the grave.
I just couldn't understand life or was it fate?
It took from us the most loved person.
"Why did you have to leave us miserable with no support dad?" I said looking down at his grave.
The grave I was sitting at the moment hopping that my dad could comeback and live happy with us like how we used to be.
Hoping that at least my dad could come and take me to where he went up there
Hoping that when I go back home everything could go back to where they were before my dad died.

Mary always had one thing in common with the leaves on the pine tree...they both moved where the wind wanted them to—adjusting her sitting position on the wooden seat, which seemed to be just in the right place at the corner of the yard far away and hidden from the judgemental eyes of the occupants of the ten-bedroom mansion. The grand splendor of the house couldn't be denied, built-in details many years back by the first lords of Scotland, the pioneers whose contributions to the growth of the nation's wealth as they established strong trade relationships with the British empire in the 1700s, conquering gold mines in the Eastern lands of the Arabic nations. The Winstons have held their own.
Mary ran her hands through her faded cotton gown, which used to be a vibrant yellow, now only a shadow of itself ...how could she have the blood of the Winstons? a soft sigh escaped her thin pale lips that looked cracked and dry. Mary knew her only redeeming feature was her big baby blue eyes, as told to her by Michael, the son of the gardener who was only ten years of age. People might find it funny that she believed a child, but there was no time she could remember Michael telling a lie. The little lad was always honest to a fault which landed him in trouble most times. At least he had his father, who was the gardener and mother, the head cook to shower him with love; she never had that.
She was born to a prostitute mother who set her eyes on the Winston heir 20 years ago, leading to her being born out of wedlock. Her mother, whose name she would instead not remember, tried to get her hands on fortune using her as a pawn, but she had bitten more than she could chew. Word was she was strangled while entertaining a customer who was relatively unknown around the area. Her death has been covered up as a suicide.
Mary never knew her mother the only memory she has of her was the hate-filled gaze that chilled her to the bone any time she stumbled upon her into the brothel home where the prostitutes stayed. Even at the young age of three, she remembered the nights out in the cold, not eating for days only to be rewarded with a slap for every tear she shed. It was a good thing they lived in a public place as other courtesans took pity on her from time to time and let her eat their scraps. Shaking her head, Mary got up from the chair as if it would shake off the terrible scars from her soul, not minding the visible scars on her body.
She walked into the garden, running her hands through the flowers, and for a while, it seemed like the perfect escape until she realized she had walked too far. The gardens had an outlet that connected to the forest. Turning back, she began to retrace her steps. It was never a good idea to be here alone.
