Part two of The Monsters Within Us Duet
Alyssia: I use to love the sun. I would welcome the heat and sun kissed skin. Now? Now, the heat and muggy air feels too heavy on my lungs and it suffocates me. Being back with my children was a blessing and I was determined to rebuild my life for them, so I could be the mother they remembered and the mother they deserved. But I wasn’t the same woman I once was. And the darkest depths of my soul grieved for Dimitri.
Dimitri: I told Alyssia she needed to go home to be back with her children. I told my men Alyssia needed to go home. I told myself she needed to go home. But I was lying to everyone including myself. I can’t live without my light. The monster within me is too vocal without her around. I am coming for you my love. And I will not be returning home until you are at my side - even if it means I have to take you all over again.
