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 seventy-seven

Alexis stood opposite to the windows and watched as the cars flew by. For the past week, she had completely ignored Angelo's existence and he had also not bothered her that much. She was mildly surprised when he had chosen to give her space and time that she wanted instead of pursuing her. 

Space and time in which she had thought a lot of things in and most of them were just realisations coming to terms. She had learnt a lot of things in this while than she had learnt in the past 20 years.

She watched as another car went by. He was not home, in fact, Angelo had left early without informing her and somehow she fell to relieved that his presence was not inside the house and that she was alone. Alexis wanted to do something about this whole situation, somewhere she wanted to hurt him, somewhere she wanted to have to one up on him that she could use any time she wanted.
