Dedicated to all my wonderful readers. Please read the note beneath the chapter, I'm hoping it touches someone. 💜

Alessandro's POV 

I stand there watching her for some seconds but she's unaware, so engaged in her conversation with the boy beside her, hovering over her. 

I look at him, the typical blonde guy, looking at his watch and shoes he's probably rich. I hope this is not her taste. She deserves better. The thought of her being with someone like him who is only out to sleep with her and brag about it to his friends annoys me. 

What is she even thinking?

" Natalia, " I call her name. 

The smile fades away from her face. The second our eyes meet, I can see the shield she's placed behind them. She used to be very open and very easy to read but now I don't know what she's thinking. It doesn't matter, I'm only here to give her a lift. 

" I've been looking everywhere for you. We need to go. "
