Christian walks into the dead silent house, and the guards lower their heads in fear when he passes by them. What Christian finds strange is that they don't even lift then heads after greeting, which is suspicious.He enters the house, and the hall is empty. There are no servants or people doing their daily activities or someone who would always be ready to attend to him when he is back at the mansion."Where is everyone?" Christian mutters and walks towards the couch in the living hall and tasks his seat. "Stella," He calls out, but there is no response in any part of the house. "Stella?" He calls out again with irritation and annoyance.Still no response...He rests his head on the backrest and closes his eyes, waiting for anyone. His ears are stretched and alert for any sounds he could hear, indicating any movement or signs of life in the house. But even after a few minutes, the house is dead silent.He slowly opens his eyes, and the ceiling comes into his vision. The only sound he
Within the hour, Elizabeth finds a lake she had visited with her friends all those years ago. They twist and turn through the pines, and as much as Elizabeth would like to say 'f*ck it' and set off in a straight line to cut her traveling distance down considerably, she's not about to risk getting lost out in this frozen forest hell anytime soon.She briefly wonders what Christian may be feeling right now-"Stop it," Elizabeth snaps over the sound of her teeth chattering. "Stop it." Christian's not her concern anymore.Truthfully, Christian should never have been her concern, and he shouldn't be anywhere near her mind right now when she has so many more significant problems, like how the f*ck she's going to get home, or she's going to explain this whole thing to her family or to her children.Even though she is the Greenwood family's matriarch the side family still has a say in the family's major decisions. And they will not leave this chance to pull her down or to seriously punish her
When Elizabeth opens her eyes, she only sees red. Her head throbs and the splitting headache makes her clutch her head tightly as a groan leaves her lips. She is lying on the hard surface something restraining her body making her unable to move from her place. Both her legs are bound by a stainless-steel chain. She tries to move but the pain makes her scream in agony. They are not just harmless binding chains they have punched the chains into her flesh. The floor around her legs is socked red from her blood. She doesn’t recognize the place she is locked in. She doesn’t remember how she got here. Who brought her here? The chain door slowly opens with a creek. Elizabeth lifts her head only to see a familiar face staring at her with a devilish smile on the face. “I see you are up…” the person smirks entering the room. Elizabeth’s eyes widen in shock when she looks at the person standing Infront of her “What are you doing here? Why am I here? Did you kidnap me?” Elizabeth screams at th
Minutes pass. Elizabeth simply lay on the floor her eyes were blurry, and her gold-colored hair spread on the floor messily. Her eyes gain consciousness when she hears someone talking outside the door."Well, hello there," a voice says from right outside the door, presumably to the guard stationed right outside.Elizabeth immediately sits up alertly. She cranes her head to look at the door.The guards outside declare, "Miss you don't have access to this room. I suggest that you turn around."A chuckle could be heard, then a voice talks "Oh, goodness no. I have authorization," the first voice says happily. There's the momentary sound of rustling fabric. "See?"A beat of quiet ensues, and then the guard makes a noise of confusion. "This is a two-for-one coupon. What the fuck is the "Vampires d-"The guard is quickly cut off by what sounds like someone choking the throat if the strange gurgling sound he makes is any indication. Elizabeth goes ram-rod straight as she listens to the sound
I groan, shifting on my bed, pulling my pillow on top of my head, covering my ears. The sound of an alarm is killing my head. With my left hand, I search for the source of the sound. When I get my hand on that, I turn it off. I was up till late-night to complete the assignment, and tomorrow was the last day to submit it to the professor. When I get down from the bed, The wood creeks under my foot. Stretching my body, I get up from the bed. It's still 5 in the morning. I could only get four hours of sleep. I need to do all the house chores before going to college. Otherwise, my aunt will kill me. My father and mother died in a car accident, and my custody fell in my aunt's hand. That's when my life became hell. I don't remember much about my mom and dad. I was too young to remember anything at that time. But I know for sure they loved me so much. My aunt Linda Martin is my mom's only sister. I don't know why she hates my mom to
I enter the college, it’s still too early for the college. I see no soul on the campus on my way. I feel grateful that I left early. I open my locker, where my bag and belongings are kept. My class schedule is stuck on the inside of the locker door. I look at my schedule; my first class is English literature. I searched for my assignment, which I worked all night to finish. Taking that, I go look for the professor’s offices. My luck office is open. I enter and place my assignment on the table, then move out of the office, closing the door. Students start to arrive, so I enter my class. I always sit at the back in my class at the corner seat so that nobody will notice me and pick on me. I make my way towards my seat, but someone doesn’t want me to have a peaceful life. “Hey, freak, did you do my assignment?” David comes my way. He is the son of one of the richest men in the city and Tina’s boyfriend. Both he and Tina nev
Christian's POV "Mr. Ford, it's a pleasure to meet you. I always admired you," a person approached me "you are a role model for the younger generations for being a successful businessman at a young age ." I Shift my eyes to the person talking, "Mr. Steel, I'm honed." Mr. Steel is one of the best friends of my grandfathers. He just nods his head. "Are u planning to shift to the city? Or you'll also stay there only in the woods". I get stiff at the question, shaking my head. "No, I'll stay with my family in the woods only." "I don't get your family sometimes. What's there in there that you guys never come and leave in the city". I just smile at him. "I'll come back in a few minutes" I go towards the balcony to get fresh air. It's the full moon today. I didn't take my medicine. Well, it slipped from my mind totally. What should I do? I'll just return to my mansion then take my medication. No, I can't leave now. Party is still half
Christian's Point of View, Her face was scarlet red, she was taking long breaths, her eyes were clouded; I think she couldn't focus on anything at this time. It looked like she was struggling to keep herself sane at this time. She looked like someone who was drugged. I don't know why anger well up in my stomach seeing her suffering like this. I think it's my people who did it. I'll definitely punish whoever did this to her. How could they drug someone to deliver a person to me? The thought it may not be my people who sent her here never came to my mind. Since she was at my door, I concluded that she was here for me. She stared at me for some time then started to struggle against my bare body. Did this girl know what she is doing now and how it affects me? It was the thought running in my head currently. I looked down at her when there was no movement. She had gone to sleep. She struggled for some time, then gone still i
