The winter season turns out well for Zoey Smith, a twenty-four-year-old who holds the town's safety in her hands has a dark secret until someone by the name of Alexander Griffin, a rich, sadistic vampire who knows her secret decides to turn her life...
"..Alex....Alex!", Alexa called Alex, finally pulling him out of his state.
Alexa started to get more worried as the months went by, she started to wonder if was the right choice to tell the couple, and she started to feel conflicted by her feelings and started to blame herself. But whenever she kept in touch with Damien, she started to feel butterflies in her stomach. Like he was meant for her and vice versa.
"Alexa, let's go forth with this plan...", Alex's voice trailed off with hesitation and regret in it.
He wasn't ready to move on from Zoey. Alexa kept Alex in hiding whilst Damien kept Zoey in hiding too. It was best for them to be separated so they could be safe.
"Alex...I'm not forcing you to do this...especially not in a state where you can barely stand up. You don't have to do this now. Just take a rest and we'll talk about this when your mind is fresh.", Alexa stated as she covered him with a blanket.
"Alexa don't talk shit to me...I've been looking for her for three months! And I found no trace of her! I've lost everything already! What more can I lose!", Alex roared at his sister in anger, she just kept quiet and kept her head down.
"Who says you've lost everything already?", A familiar and sweet voice rang throughout the house as Alex could get a familiar scent.
Alex's eyes widened in surprise to see Zoey, but also her physical changes. Zoey had short, straight hair as always with light bangs and blonde steaks covering her brown her, especially on the fringe. She wore a black crop top with a black jacket and black track pants with gumboots and a thin, black choker chain with a thin gold chain falling on her collarbones.

The whole room went silent.
"Well...what are you waiting for?", Zoey questioned as she smiled, letting her dimples press in.
Alexa pulled Damien away to another room, deciding on giving the couple the space they need.
Zoey walked towards Alex but got no reaction from him. He gazed at her coldly. She played with his hair and her hand finally landed on his cheekbone to his chin.
"I've missed you, honey.", she muttered under her breath as tears started to form in her eyes.
Alex snaked his hands around the nape of her neck and pulled her down into his arms and hugged her tightly. She wrapped her arms around her neck and hugged him back.
"I've missed you so much Zoey, I've been looking for you for such a long time.", He stated as he places kisses on her head. "You've changed so much."
"I'm so sorry....I'm so sorry for leaving you like that. I- I just didn't know what to -"
Was all that Zoey could say before she was given a passionate kiss, she placed one hand on his chest and kept the other around his neck, kissing him roughly.
"I never blamed you. I love you so much, baby.", Alex stated as he combed his hands through her hair.

"So you're telling me that Damien hid you all along?", Alex exclaimed in shock.
"Yeah, I asked him because I didn't know where else to go or who else to turn to. He even taught me how to use my powers and have control of it.", Zoey stated as she poured a glass of water, and gave it to him.
Just then, the jug fell out of her hands, and before it could touch the ground, Alex got out of bed within a split second and caught it.
"Just as I thought.", Zoey shrugged off, not being surprised. "You're much better."
Alex tilted his head in confusion as he realized that he was much better and that he even got out of bed.
"How is that even possible?", he questioned in confusion.
"I realized that after you bit me, and when I ran away, I got nauseous and sick. And for the three months, we were apart, I had a problem with walking at a certain times. Very weird... ", she stated.
" You're thinking what I'm thinking? ", Alex asked her.
" We got a blood bond!", they replied together in unison.
Meanwhile
"So...how have you been Alexa?", Damien started a conversation with caution.
"Don't act like everything is so rosy between us Damien. You hid her, and talked to me like nothing happened!", Alexa exclaimed as she raised her hands in the air. "I'm still not over what you did before you left...", Alexa's voice trailed off as it broke a little.
Three months back
"Alexa, I'm so sorry...I have to leave...", Damien stated.
"No...please don't. You're the only one I know either than my brother. We can't even find Zoey. It's all my fault.", Alexa stated as she rubbed her eyes aggressively before tears could fall down her face.
Just then, Damien cupped his hands over her cheeks and gazed at her teary eyes. His eyes widened in shock at his actions, he glanced down at her lips and slowly made his move to kiss her. Alexa tilted her head and kissed him back, she wrapped her arms around him as he kissed her. Damien then pulled back in shock and wiped his lips with the back of his hand.
"Shit...I'm sorry, I've got to go.", Damien said before he could walk away from her.
Alexa was left dumbstruck by his actions, she couldn't move from the spot she was in, and just then, reality hit her. She kissed her brother's assistant. After that day onwards, she kept in touch with Damien but neither of them dared to bring up the kiss for three months.
Back to the present
"I...I'm sorry Alexa...I'm sorry for what I did back then, it's just that...I wasn't ready to face the truth...", Damien said.
"What the hell Damien! What more truth could have been to it? We just shared a kiss like how anyone else could have done in the heat of the moment. Nothing more, nothing less, am I right?", Alexa said as she took a laid back on her bed.
"I know you're lying...because I know that you felt the same feeling as soon as we first saw each other.", Damien stated as he took off his glasses and sat next to her. "We're both mates, Alexa...And I wasn't ready to face the truth as yet back then."
Alexa's eyes widened in shock.
"Wait...does that mean...?", Alexa's trailed off as she sat up on her bed.
