AURELIA'S POV:
I don't have to look back to know that Mr Black is currently slumped on the ground with a bullet hole in hie head. My hands rove over my body, as I try to feel for pain of any sort.
I wasn't shot?! I'm okay?! I can't stop the sigh of relief that escapes my mouth. I can't believe I escaped all this unscathed.
"Don't." Alessandro says harshly to me the moment I start to turn backwards. "Don't look."
His legs eat up the distance between us and soon, he's standing right in front of me. He pulls out a black cloth from his pocket, and then he softly ties it over my eyes.
"I wouldn't want you fainting on me." Alessandro says in a tone tinged with humour.
Wait— what the hell is going on here? Have I been transported to a alternate universe? Why is Alessandro acting so strange?
