He stepped closer making me step back. "I know you cheated, cut the act." He froze and for a moment I saw that hint of insanity in the back of those blue eyes, it sent chills down my spine. "Baby I don't know what you're saying, did you sleep well?" "Don't act innocent Dominik, you're a lying bastard, I heard you telling some woman how beautiful she is the exact same way you said it to me. Every day I go to sleep I hear you saying those words to her, it's driving me mad! You told me you loved me. " I felt tears running down my face faster than a waterfall. "How could you do this to me? I hate you and I never want to see your lying ass aga-" Dominik cut me off after connecting the back of his hand to my cheek. I backed away and hit the wall holding my face, he walked up to me and grabbed my wrists. "Shut the fuck up! You're in pain but you don't mean that baby, you love me, everything will change when we get married. I promise." He pulled my hands away from my face so he can grab it instead. "You love me." He said, squeezing my face tighter, I looked around the room and then flinched as he screamed at my face, "Say it!" I stayed silent; he went feral. This time he slapped me so hard that I ended up on the floor, I yelped and held my stinging face, I didn't even dare to look at him, I didn't want to either.

"I hope you realize you made the worst f**king decision of your life." She could feel his cold icy blue eyes piercing through her soul. "I didn't ask for this..." tears threatened to fall from her eyes, her lips quivering in fear. His grip on both her wrists become tighter as he slams them hard against the wall, trapping her petite body in-between the wall and his body, "You'll never have a place in my life, let alone my heart, do you understand?" She winces from the pain from her wrists. He slams her arms against the wall again. He leans in close enough to the point where their lips are only inches apart, "I said, do you f**king understand, foolish girl?" His voice rises as he clenches his jaw in an impatient manner. She nods in hopes that he'll let go. And just like that, he lets go of her as she falls to the floor in utter defeat. What have I done... she asks herself. **Full Summary Inside** Cover by: Me, Myself, and I!

Austin unclenched his jaw and spoke, "You're going to run from me." I was puzzled. What did he mean? He sensed my confusion. "As soon as we step foot onto human grounds," He spat out, jaw set, teeth clenched. He looked like a vampire at this exact moment. Angry, vicious, destructive. "You're going to want your life back. And leave me. Because you can't deal with a vampire. Because you're scared. Because you hate us." He averted his gaze from my shocked eyes and he spoke with ice in his tone. "And I can't let that happen." - "Listen human," Dmitri said to me, and he was in front of me in a millisecond, hands gripping my shoulders, pinning my body against the balcony railing. His face was inches from mine. "This is not your place. I'd watch your mouth if I was you." I shoved him but he didn't budge. "You can't hurt me," I whispered. "You're a HUMAN!" He yelled in my face gritting his teeth. "How'd you even make it here?" I tried to take my hand away but he didn't allow me. "What do you want from me, Dmitri?" I asked. I was shocked at how confident yet quiet voice sounded. "What do I want?" He bellowed. "You're a human, vermin. This is the vampire world. I don't expect you have any need in this world. I WANT you to get out, stay away from this place, the castles, the people. Austin. Stay away from him." He stared me right in the eyes when he said the sentence that prepared me want to leave immediately. "I'll have to kill you if you don't leave - and yes, that's a threat."
