My eyes fluttered open, surprised by seeing Damon sitting at the edge of my bed. Memories from earlier came back to me. The fight with Alessio, him screaming at me, me feeling exhausted. And hearing the fact that my favorite couple kissed. I think it was just a dream, Stella wouldn't get an inch closer to Grayson.

"Damon?" I whispered, sitting up. Still wearing my Mom-Jeans and a white top that was wrinkled, I felt my body numb from the tight waistband.

"You're finally up, I had to stay with you to make sure you're only passed out and not in a coma." Damon chucked turning around to face me.

"Where is he?"

"The last time I saw him was when he went to put Christian in the nursery," Damon responded, handing me a bottle of water from the nightstand. I gulped the cold water down, wondering if Alessio was at home. I barely saw him, and I don't intend to. I feel like I'm the problem, I always ask for too much. I couldn't do anything about it, it was long gone and there was nothing else I could do.

"Damon, would Alessio cheat on me?" My lips trembled with each word. I didn't know why I asked that question, I trusted Alessio. I think I'm letting my insecurities get in the way, Alessio loves me.

Damon's jaw tightened. "No, precious. He would never cheat on you."

I nodded standing up and heading out. Damon followed me, we walked down the stairs. Stella and Grayson were probably asleep since their floor's lights were turned off, Liliana and Jaxon were on the couch cuddling, while Marcella sat beside them.

"Where is he?" I asked, still walking around the mansion. Damon opened the door for me to the indoor pool, viewing Alessio, swimming in the dark.

"When are you coming to bed?" My voice echoed. Alessio turned, his wet hair strands falling on his forehead, and the ink on his chest making him appear more attractive than ever. I hate tattoos. I hate Alessio right now. Why would he pick swimming in the middle of the night?

He turned, not facing Damon and me. "Don't wait up for me, just sleep."

Not surprised, I shrugged. "Okay, don't expect me either."

That caught both Damon's and Alessio's attention. "I'm going to go find something better to do, perhaps going to a club, it's better than waiting for you." I turned around leaving the indoor pool. I'm not stupid enough to leave the mansion, but I'm also not stupid enough to let Alessio ignore me and act like I'm repulsive. I deserve to be treated right.
