CHAPTER 21
HEAVEN SENT
Angelina
I completely blacked out the moment Nico told me what he
did to that poor girl. I have never killed someone before or even
considered it, but after he admitted to it, there was no way I was
letting him walk the streets and hurt another girl. Nico orders his
employees to clean up my mess and the body, and they get rid of it
within minutes.
Nico ’ s white button-up that I ’ m wearing is covered in blood.
There ’ s no way the stains will come out. My hands are dripping in
it, and the floor is slippery because of the mess I made. But none of
this bothers Nico when he comes up and kisses me. He kisses me
with delicacy and tenderness. It ’ s a type of kiss I haven ’ t
experienced with him before. Typically, they ’ re full of need and
desperation, but it ’ s pure sweet intent right now. It ’ s what I needed.
“ Baby, I have no words for what that was, ” he says.
