Sandra's POVI was completely immersed in reading the book so I didn't notice anyone coming in. Suddenly someone tapped on my shoulder, I jumped in fright."Oh Maa !! " I shrieked.I was about to throw the book at the intruder but stopped midway when I saw who it was."Oh dear, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. I called you many times but you didn't respond so I tapped on your shoulder.""It's OK Aunt Lucy. Why were you calling me?""Young Master Ethan told me that you wanted a haircut so I brought someone.""Thank you Aunt Lucy." I smiled at her."Oh it's nothing. Do you want me to bring her now or sometime later?""If she isn't busy, she can do it now.""Ok I will bring her to your room."Saying this she went out of the library.I looked back in the room to find something to be used as a bookmark but didn't find anything.I looked in the backyard and decided to use a leaf. I entered the backyard and looked around. The backyard has many kinds of small plants, trees, and a sma
The female trainee who was named Steffany came running and stood in front of him."Show her around.""Yes Sir!!"Ethan left us after that."Follow me" She said with a serious face. She was a young woman in her late twenties or early thirties with green eyes and blonde hair. She was dressed differently from other female trainees. She might be in a higher position than them.I followed behind her. She showed me the canteen, the meeting room, dispensary(medical room) and the training ground. "Training starts at 8:00 am sharp in the morning." She said and took me to a hallway."You will be staying in this room."The room had two beds. An almirah, two small side tables and there is a window in between the two beds. The best thing is that the room has its own private bathroom. This way I won't have to share it with other females except my roommate."For the time being you will be living alone in this room."With this the tour was over. Before leaving she gave me a bag which contained two
Sandra's POVNext morning I went for a run which I had been skipping for the past two days. After that I carried the bag on my back, came out of the room and went to the kitchen for a light breakfast. "Good Morning Aunt Lucy."I greeted Aunt Lucy with a smile."Good morning darling"I noticed something about Aunt Lucy's behavior in the past few days. Whenever she is worried about something or there is something on her mind, she would call me "darling", in normal talks she would call me "dear" and when she is angry she would call me "Veronica". "What happened Aunt Lucy?"She sighed."You haven't even moved yet and I already started missing you. I am gonna miss you. A lot."I smiled."I am just moving to the building next door. I will visit you regularly and you can also visit me whenever you want. What? Is it not allowed?""Yeah. We can visit each other."But she still looked depressed. So, I gave her a tight hug. Aunt Lucy froze at first but soon returned the hug.She went to kitche
Ethan's POVAfter talking with him I walked back to the training ground. I looked around and saw everyone training. I went to the shooting range where I saw all the girls practicing shooting. That woman was missing. I became alerted as I just got a notice. But soon she appeared with Anna, with Anna pulling her. She looked a little uncomfortable, awkward. Anna looked excited as she might have made a new friend. It's Anna for you. Always energetic, excited, happy, full of life and full of hopes.She is the youngest here and has been here for two years already. She is 19 now. Looking at her smile no one could tell that she was a victim of gang rape and her family members were killed right infront of her eyes by a small town gang. We rescued her during our mission to wipe out that gang. She was only 16 at that time and stayed in a coma for a year afterward.I shifted my eyes to Veronica. She gaped at the whole shooting range. They both stopped walking then Anna started talking to her whi
Sandra's POVSoon the break was over and we again went to train. This time Steffany was also present there. She assigned partners to everyone except me and told us to fight with our partners. A girl has asked for leave during the lunch break so that's how I was the only one left without a partner to fight with."Veronica!" She called me.-Looks like she already knows my new name.-I walked to her and stood in attention."Since you are new here, you should first have some basic knowledge about fighting. Do you have any knowledge beforehand?"She asked me."If I had known how to fight beforehand then I wouldn't have been standing in front of you today. I might have been at home with my parents."I replied with sarcasm."Hmm. I'll be teaching you from now on."I nodded."Let's get started."She assigned me some exercises to increase the strengths of my hand and gave me some moves to practice first.And went away to the other girls to tell them their mistakes.The whole day till six in th
Victor's POVThe three day trip to Germany was successful. Lucas and Alex went there with me.The day my flight landed in Canada my mom called telling me to go back home tomorrow.She told me that she misses me and want to see me and also threatened that if I didn't go then she will come here and permanently shift here. After this she disconnected the call without giving me a chance to speak.I called my father. "Hi Dad. How are you doing?""I am good. Are you okay?""I am good too""Is business going well?""Very well"Then I lowered my voice." Is mom beside you?""No why"I can sense the confusion from his voice.Hearing the answer I spoke normally again."Hi Man! What's your woman planning this time?""She didn't tell me anything this time after I cheated on her for you last time.......... So I can't help you this time.""Really?""Even if I know something I won't tell you." My dad said evilly."Please help your one and only son, Dad" I tried to act cute for him."Nope. Not gonn
Victor's POVNext day I decided to catch the figure. So I hid in the jungle around the time the person sneaked out. I didn't have to wait for long. Soon she came dressed all back and went into the jungle. I followed her silently. I have been trained since childhood so she can't notice. But still I was extra careful as I still don't know who she is exactly and what she is hiding. She walked for 15 minutes approx and stood in front of a tree. There she bent down for a minute, got up and left in the direction from where she came. I came out of the hiding after she left and went to the tree to take a look.Six boiled eggs are on the ground and some crumbs of eggs around them. I stayed there for sometime and left.I followed her for three nights straight. Everyday she would sneak out at the same time, go to the same tree, stay there for a minute to put down the eggs and would leave.Everyday the previous eggs would be missing. I want to find out who is taking the eggs. I have a doubt as i
Victor's POVNext day I dressed up well for the lunch date. *evil wink*I reached my parents home exactly at 12:30 in the afternoon. Seeing me enter the front door my mother's face beamed with joy. Maybe she had some doubts before whether I would attend the lunch.-She really has no trust in her son. How could I miss the lunch when it is related to my love life.-I greeted her. She hugged me and took me to the living area. Mrs Stark and her daughter were already sitting there. I greeted Mrs Stark and smirked at her daughter. Seeing this her daughter gave a shy smile.We sat down and my mother and Mrs Stark started talking. Mrs Stark sometime in between the conversation would ask me about how business is going and that's all.Seeing me not taking much part in the conversation my mother started saying."How I wish I had a daughter as beautiful and sensible as Loria."Mrs Stark smiled at that and looked at her daughter proudly."It's true that daughters are more caring and sensible than
