CHAPTER VI
Gigi
My wrists still hurt from the night when Diesel first took my body and my blood. Now, every time I see him my chest fills with this voracious need to have his arms around me.
The effect this vampire has on me has reached dangerous levels. Thereâs this loyalty I feel for him that soldiers feel for their cause. Iâve seen him do atrocious stuff, and yet the only thing I keep thinking of is how he threw himself over me to protect me with his body against a volley of bullets on the first night we met.
But he hasnât tried to reach me since. He didnât come around anymore, didnât ask me what Iâd decided, whether I wanted out or not. He avoided being with me in the same room, and Iâm starting to think I disappointed him in some way. But what did I expect, really? I should have known things would take this turn the moment I realized I was falling in love with him. I should have known heâd lose interest. These things are always one-sided, and I shouldnât have been stupid enough to entertain a different idea. And yet here I am, watching him from a distance, hungry to be in his presence even so.
I watch him from a corner with my arms folded over my chest as he shoots an online interview with the other Angels. Theyâre all sitting on a large beige sofa with their backs at the city lights, facing cameras, equipment and the production team. Production assistants scurry around, stressed and wide-eyed, expertly juggling tablets and phones.
I stroke my upper arm with my thumb absentmindedly, my eyes zooming in on Diesel. I canât seem to look away from him, he attracts me like a magnet. Iâm not the only one heâs got in his thrall, of course. While none of the staff girls would make a move on him, I canât help noticing the stolen glances and the longing.
âHe is an exquisite specimen, isnât he?â Itâs Aimee. Lost in my own head, I didnât even notice her coming up to my side.
âHow long have you been standing there?â
âEnough to see the way you stare at him.â It never ceases to amaze me how beautiful this woman is, especially up close. She has large, melancholy eyes, small sweet features, and thereâs a distinctly gothic air about her eleganceâthe dark hair, the white skin, the elegant and often black clothes. Sheâd stand out in any crowd.
I watch the Angels again, this time making a point of not staring at Diesel. He glances at me once in a while, but not in a way that would reflect what happened between us last time we were alone together. No one would guess we have something goingâif thatâs even whatâs happeningâif it werenât for all the media coverage that has been running wild lately.
Any girl would feel certain that she means something to him considering how he let the media ride with that story, but I canât.
