Left with a broken heart after returning from his search, Valentino had yet to find his mate. However, after a night of isolation and the sound of a heartbeat, he found her. Running through the woods in a dirtied white dress and hauntingly beautiful eyes. She was all he never expected and more. - "You favour the mysteries," Valentino stated, his eyes locked with mine. I blushed, looking at the book that I held in my hands. "They were my favorite growing up." "I can see that." I turned back to face him, a smile reaching my lips. "How?" He chuckled, stepping forward before he was only inches away from me. I could feel my heart hammering inside my chest and he leaned down and whispered in my ear. "Darling, you are a mystery yourself." - WARNING [ contains mature language ] STARTED on March 20, 2020
