Chapter 29 Ivan

• ~Aida~
• The silence grows between us, and it’s starting to make me anxious. This is a vampire sitting across from me; he’s a vampire and my fated mate. I have no idea how I’ve gotten to this point or what I’m expected to do from here.
• Ivan takes a deep breath and lets it go, leaning forward. He rests his elbows on his knees and places his head in his hands. “I haven’t been a good man, like ever.” Here we go. “I wasn’t born a vampire; I was turned. I happened to rob the wrong person…..well, I tried to anyway.” Ivan chuckles and sits back in the chair. “I thought it would be the payday that would set me up for life, but I was wrong. I was wrong about my setup, that is.”
