CHAPTER ONE
Selene's POV
My life had always been torn apart, loveless, and abused by everyone that crossed my path and I was already used to that. But I never thought that anyone would be able to hurt me so bad again to render me so broken, not until I met him.
It all began on a blessed Saturday afternoon, the blazing sun was overhead and the city was buzzing with the day's business. I was at the town's Mayor's bar where I worked as a waitress.
"Please get me water, can I get wine, please? Why are you taking so long?" The clamours of the people in the bar filled my ears and I had to hurry up so that I was going to meet all their orders.
My legs were already aching from the work but I was certainly not going to stop. I was a strong girl right from the beginning and that is exactly what has been keeping me strong.
I could feel sweat forming at the corner of my eyes as I went around the bar with glasses of drinks and cans of water balanced steadily in my tray.
I distributed the drinks as soon as I could. I had to serve everyone there as soon as I could because I also worked at a close by diner after my shift.
I watched the time closely and it was just ten minutes to twelve. "I have just ten minutes more minutes time here," I said swiftly to myself.
I distributed the rest of the drinks around as soon as I could and I went over to my boss, the Vampire Mayor.
"I am done for today sir." I said to him and he shot a stare at me. I was waiting for my allowance and he knew that. He shot a stare at me but I didn't care, all I waited for was my allowance.
He brought out the five dollar bill and pushed it over to me. "Here it is." He returned to me. I snatched the money away from him quickly. I was already running late and I was damn sure that my boss would already be foaming with anger.
I broke into a swift run towards the diner and I could feel my heart pounding hard against my chest as though it was going to burst through and cold Shivers ran swiftly down my spine.
I could see the diner just before me and I knew that I was already late as I could see my boss just before me, foaming with anger.
"Where have you been?" He growled at me with so much hate and anger in his voice when I got over to him.
