My boss rose from above me and turned toward the voice. At that moment, I noticed the enormous white wings sticking out of his back and a weird looking circular thing above his head.
"Tomasso, what the fuck are you doing here!?" my boss shouted toward the voice.
A man stepped from the shadows, and he was the same that I woke up next to.
"Get away from her, Tom. She's mine now!" my boss shouted at the man.
The stranger ignored my boss's words and looked at me. With a smirk on his face, he spoke: "You could have slept longer this morning. I was sad when I didn't find you when I woke up."
"I-" I tried to say before my boss stepped in front of me and shouted at the stranger: "I told you that she is mine. You didn't mark her yet, so back off."
While they were talking to each other, I took my chance to escape. I started slowly walking toward the door with my eyes fixed on them.
The moment I tried to turn, my boss pulled me toward him.
"Where do you think you are going? I'm not done with you," he said while wrapping his hand around my waist. My boss pulled me closer to him and bit my nape.
"Now she's mine! Back-off!" my boss shouted. Those were the last words I heard before I fainted.

When I opened my eyes, a bright light flashed me, and I shut my eyes and growled in pain. "Good morning, miss. How do you feel?" a female voice spoke.
"I feel like my head is going to explode," I replied.
I felt a hand touch my forehead, and the voice spoke closer: "That's normal. Your blood pressure was low, and you were quite dehydrated when your husband brought you here. I will bring you something for the head now."
The nurse walked out of my room, and I just closed my eyes.
My husband?
"Ella, can I come in?" a voice spoke. I opened my eyes and turned toward the door.
When I saw him, I shouted: "Get out! Yesterday wasn't enough for you!"
He sighed and walked toward me: "I'm sorry for what happened yesterday. But when it comes to you, I can't keep my cool."
I sat and spoke back: "Yesterday you attacked me and bit me and and ..."
I sighed and continued: "Just get out and let me take a few days off so I can forget everything."
"Here you go, miss. I hope that you don't mind me letting your husband in?" the nurse said and cut off our conversation.
When I tried to reply to the nurse, my boss cut me off and spoke instead of me: "She didn't mind, she's happy to see me. Thank you very much."
The nurse blushed and giggled before replying: "I will leave you alone now, goodbye."
When the nurse closed the door behind her, I asked my boss with a cold voice: "What are you pulling up here? First of all, you are not my husband, and second, you are the reason why I'm here. And now, please get out."
He bowed in front of me and replied: "Don't get me wrong, amore mio, but you are my bride now. And like or not, I have to take care of you."
I looked at his bowed body and asked: "Your bride!?"
He smiled at my shocked face and caressed my cheek, "Yes, you are my bride now." he said before he slid his hand on my nape and continued: "I marked you yesterday as mine only."
