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.)

The doctor nodded. "Alright." She relented. "How was the rest of the week?" She changed the topic.

She pursued her lips and thought of what to tell. Not much had happened except she had been scared to death by her in-law.

"Nothing." She shook her head. "mainly it was all just. Netflix and chill with lots of greasy Chinese."

"That sounds nice. A little time to yourself that do wonders." Peterson smiled. "Did you feel better?"

Alexis answered with a smile. "Yes, I am. I have been wanting some time to myself given everything that has happened till date."

The doctor frowned and probed further. "What happened in the past says to make you feel like that?"
