Infatuation of Darkness

*Dark Romance* "Search the name, Angelo de Alassandro." He said. Now she was doubtful why would she have to search his name? She did it and the search was normal; it was like searching for any other business man. But a few caught her attention. 'Angelo de Alassandro linked with the underworld. 'De Alassandro associated with the recent gun fire.' 'Another body found inside a dumpster, to be linked with the de Alassandro group.' The links did not stop. They more she scrolled down the more she read and the more gut twisting they got. She did not know how to react with the situation especially when the man who was supposedly linked with them was sitting right next to her. She was reading them with so much attention that she did not notice Angelo standing behind her. He was enjoying her reactions and her curiosity to read more. He bent down to her ear causing her breath to be hitched. He leisurely stroked her face and pushed a strand of her hair behind her ear. "Do you think that can be rumours?" Calmly he spoke in her ear. "They could be," She spoke diplomatically. He chuckled, "well, they are not." He confirmed. (I don't stand for abuse but I need to show it for the development of my characters.)

Chapter One hundred and Nine

When Alexis opened her eyes, she immediately winced. They hurt. Raising her hand she lightly touched her eyes, wondering why had happened that it hurt all of sudden when it all came rushing back to her.

She had admitted the fact that she was a murderer. She knew that she was one. She was responsible for taking someone else's life. The guilt weighed on her like a thousand tonnes and she was not sure that she could carry it. It felt like it would bury her under the ground with how much it weighed. How was she supposed to protect herself against it? What would happen when the whole world would know?

She had pretty much killed a public figure. Who would defend her? And why?

Her eyes were burning and it was a matter of time before her tears fell.

Alexis took her phone from the nightstand beside the bed and sat up straight on the bed. She opened Google and googled the word prison.

The word sent shivers down her spine.
