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 twenty-seven

She opened her eyes and looked around. Everything was blurry. Her eyes felt heavy and all she wanted to do was close them and go to sleep and by god's grace never wake up. What good was life anyway if she woke up she was either in need for the drug or like right now she was suffering the after-effects of it? It would rather just let go.

Alexis felt her body be numb and not feel any kind of pain which she was thankful for. The pain was the reminder of whatever had happened and with no pain, she was not reminded of what had transpired. She was ignoring it without having her body remind her of it. 

She continued to look at the ceiling, blinking her eyes as she tried to get her vision cleared. There was an ache in her head, it was dull but it made its presence known. It was annoying. 

Everything felt hazier. Where was she? 

"Hey," A soft voice had her head-turning into its direction. Who was talking to her?

She looked at the man and blinked. Who was he?
