After a long period of blackout, Ivy slowly opened her eyes again. Now she was no longer by the riverside, she was lying on a soft bed in a lavish room, the walls adorned with intricate designs and gold accents. “What is this place?” she asked herself as she raised her body off the bed and tried to seat up. Still feeling disoriented and confused, she looked around the room and then noticed a woman sitting by her side, her face a mixture of anger and concern. A voice from within her called "Mother"
"Mother?" Ivy thought to herself. “What the fuck!”“What the hell is wrong with you this little pretender?” Mrs Dave yelled.“Who are you? Why did you bring me here? How did I get here?” Ivy couldn't help but think if she was now a magician. From the accident to the hospital to the riverside and now a lavish room. “No...No..No... What is all this?”“What is your problem? Why are you shouting?” Mrs Dave said.“Are you mad? Who the fuck are you?” Ivy said, increasing the tone of her voice.“How dare you Amelia?” Mrs Dave shouted.“I don't fucking know who this Amelia girl is, go and find your Amelia.” Ivy said and threw a pillow at her“Behave yourself, else I would give you a slap.”“Where is this place?” Ivy asked frowning and Mrs Dave blinked her eyes.“Your home obviously!” Mrs Dave answered and before she asked any other question, Ivy immediately got up from her bed and began cursing.“What the fuck?!” Ivy shouted and suddenly, she felt dizzy... But, she leaned against the table and got hold of it. She shook her head before she looked up at Mrs Dave who was calling herself her mother.“Mind your language!” Mrs Dave said strictly.“Ehhh?” Ivy asked but her head was spinning. This couldn't be real. How can a stranger call herself a mother and how can this lavish room be her home when she lives in an apartment which is very much smaller than this room?“I will call the pack’s healer. He will look into you. Until then... Rest and don't run away again.” Mrs Dave ordered.“Are you fucking serious right now?” Ivy asked as Mrs Dave turned around to walk away from the room.“Amelia, I’m your mother and for god’s sake, mind your language!” Mrs Dave yelled.“Amelia? Who the hell is she?” Ivy asked frowning and Mrs Dave blinked her eyes at her.“What?” Mrs Dave asked.“Who the hell is Amelia? I am Ivy.” Ivy answered.“What's wrong with you, Amelia? Why are you behaving like this all over again? Do you so want to ruin our reputation after whatever stunt you pulled last week?” Mrs Dave asked as she took two steps towards her.“What? What happened last week and what reputation are you talking about? What stunt? And for fuck’s sake, I am not AMELIA! I am IVY!” Ivy yelled and Mrs Dave walked towards her angrily and stood in front of her and before Ivy could blink her eye, Mrs Dave raised her hand.She was about to slap Ivy when Ivy recovered from her sense and catches Mrs Dave’s hand in mid-air.“Who the fuck do you think you are to raise your hand on me?” Ivy asked with a dark voice starting deeply into Mrs. Dave’s eyes.“Get me the fuck out of here!” Ivy said pushing Mrs Dave making her stumble back a few steps.“AMELIA!” Suddenly a voice made Ivy look up at the owner of the voice and she saw a person standing there at the door.“How dare you talk like that with your mother?” Mr Dave asked angrily and Ivy chuckled keeping her hands on her waist.“Ahhh... God! Give me patience with these weird people!” Ivy said and Mrs Dave raised her eyebrows.“What? Weird people? We are your parents!” Mrs Dave said and Ivy can clearly see the anger on her face.“Parents? God! Are you serious? Never mind... Tell me, where am I?” Ivy asked.“You are in your home!” Mr Dave answered.“My home? My apartment even isn't as huge as this lavish room!” Ivy answered and Mr. And Mrs. Dave looked at each other.“Amelia...” Mr. Dave called.“My name is Ivy! How many times I should repeat it?” Ivy asked annoyed as she rubbed her forehead.“Amelia, look... Take some time to calm yourself down. We understand that falling into the river last week might be frightened you... But when you were drowning, someone saved you. We were happy when they found you. We were so worried when you went missing...” Ivy suddenly cut off Mr Dave making him angry.“Wait... A second. Drowning in a river? What the hell are you talking about? I clearly remembered that I was hit by some vehicle!” Ivy answered frowning and Mr. And Mrs. Dave exchanged looks with each other.Ivy looked at them frowning and was about to walk away from there when Mrs. Dave grabbed her wrist making her stop in mid-way.“Where are you going again?” Mrs Dave asked.“Leave me!” Ivy yelled as she tried to release her hand from her grip.“You are not going anywhere! Do you get it? You are not going to run away again!” Mrs. Dave yelled pushing Ivy on the bed.Ivy looked at her and then at the flower vase on the bedside table. She immediately grabbed that and raised it towards Mrs Dave.Mrs. Dave took a few steps back and Ivy threw it on the floor angrily.“Don’t you understand what I am saying? I am not Amelia for god’s sake! My name is Ivy and I was hit by a passing vehicle and didn't drown in some river!” Ivy said as she grabbed another antique piece from the shelf and threw it on the floor making Mr and Mrs. Dave step back from her."Let me go before things get really ugly in here.""We are sorry we can't." Mr Dave said as he and his wife ran towards the door and jam it before Ivy could get there. Ivy begins to bang the door profusely, "Get me out of here... what the fuck is wrong with you weird idiots. How dare you?"The bang on the door became even louder and louder, "Arrrgh... Don't fucking mess with me, you would be making the worse mistake of your life you all. Just bet me." She began to throw the broken pieces of glass towards the door, while she was still cursing."Amelia stop it already" Mrs Dave yelled from behind the door."Fuck Amelia and fuck you too."“What's wrong with this girl—” Before Mrs Dave could finish her sentence, she heard a loud scream.“Ahhhhh,” Ivy screamed and Mrs. Dave immediately snapped her face at her and saw Amelia looking straight into the mirror which is on the opposite side of her.While Mr And Mrs Dave were too confused about why she was in shock looking at herself in the mirror.Ivy felt a heavy lump of vomit in her throat as she watched herself in the mirror."No! No!! No!!!" She said as she began to move backwards, one leg after the other."What did you do to me?" she cried out as she held the long black hair attached to her head. At this point, Mr and Mrs Dave did not know whether Amelia was faking this whole thing or if it was real. But how would it be real? She had just fallen into the river on purpose so it definitely was part of her plan to avoid the marriage as they won't let her be until she gets married to the Diamond pack's Alpha Azrael.Ivy immediately took advantage of their confused state and ran as fast as she could towards the door. She stepped on the broken glass which where scattered all around her room. "Ouch, ouch, ouch, MY LEG!" That did not stop her from running, she tried her best to outrun and outsmart each and every one of them."Get her!" Mr Dave shouted in a loud angry voice as they ran towards her. Ivy kept running with all the stre
"Amelia, what the heck is wrong with you." Mrs Dave said as she angrily came down the stairs to meet Ivy and the men who had bundled her like a set of wood."Isn't it enough, put me down."The guards look at Mr Dave who was standing at the last step of the stairs, and he nodded in affirmation. They then set Ivy down on her feet and stepped back, keeping a watchful eye on her. Mrs Dave walked up to Ivy and looked her up and down, clearly displeased."Why all this drama? Are you not tired? You know that whatever you do doesn't really make any difference. You are getting married and that's it." Mrs Dave seemed to have added volume to her voice."Who the hell do you think you are to raise your voice at me?..."In the middle of Ivy's outburst, Mrs Dave interrupted her with a massive slap on her pale face. Ivy stumbled back from the force of the slap, her hand flying to her cheek as she gasped in shock. She looked up at Mrs Dave, her eyes wide with disbelief. In the history of Ivy's life, h
Ivy's heart sank further at the thought of being completely cut off from the outside world. How was she supposed to figure out what was going on if she couldn't even check the date or time? She felt a growing sense of panic rising within her." How about the year, what year is this?" Ivy asked.The maid scratched her head profusely, they never really cared about the year or date and of course, it was none of their business. All they knew was to serve the royal family for as long as they live. But thinking of this, Miss Amelia had never asked her these kinds of questions before so what prompted all this? The maid wanderedAs the maid stood there thinking, Ivy's heart sank a little. Was she really that out of touch with the world that she didn't even know what year it was."I'm sorry, Miss Amelia, I don't really keep track of the year," the maid finally replied apologetically. "Is there anything else I can help you with, Miss Amelia?" the maid asked kindly, sensing Ivy's unease.Ivy hes
As Ivy just laid down there the tension in her muscles began to melt away, and she closed her eyes, letting out a contented sigh. For a few minutes, she simply lay there, letting the warm water wash over her. But as she opened her eyes and looked around the bathroom, she couldn't help but feel a sense of curiosity.What else was there in this palace? What other secrets and wonders lay hidden within its walls? Ivy knew that she had to find out. The cool cream soothed her skin, and Ivy let her eyes close as the maid softly hummed a tune while she worked.For a while, Ivy simply let herself relax, feeling the warm water and the comforting presence of the maid wash over her. But as the minutes ticked by, her mind began to wander back to the problem she had been struggling with earlier.The sense of defeat she had felt earlier began to creep back in, and Ivy felt a wave of frustration wash over her. She leaned her head back against the tub, feeling a lump form in her throat.The maid pause
*Kinsmen Pack*Mariam stepped out of the bathroom with very exposing lingerie. She looked really attractive that even Alpha Alexander couldn't hide his reaction."At your service, my Alpha, do to me whatever you want." She said as she approached the bed where Alpha Alexander was sitting.Alpha Alexander was not too much of a talking type, but he was sure a man of action. His v-shaped face was as bright as ever, we could tell that he was amazed by what he had seen and was ready to finish work on Mariam that night. His cobalt blue eyes became even brighter and more glued to the view when Mariam began to take her dress off. He didn't just want to pounce on her yet, he just wanted her to display what she had and then he would take over from there.Mariam drew even closer to Alpha Alexander, his muscular body hitting her on every side as she tried to seduce him. She played her way through his chest and marked out all the bisect and trisect on them. He was so built and had a very nice and a
Ivy is still struggling to fall asleep in her new environment. Everything feels so unfamiliar, and she just can't seem to get comfortable enough to drift off. Her mind kept racing with thoughts of how she could escape this living hell or how she could cope with it.On top of that, the nightmares are getting worse. It's like they're uncontrollable, and she can't escape them even when she is awake. Ivy feels so frustrated and doesn't even know which is worse her day or her night.She kept rolling from one end of the bed to the other, trying to find a position that will bring her some semblance of comfort. But it's no use. Her mind is too busy and her body is too tense.Then, just as she is starting to feel like she might finally be able to fall asleep, she hears the sound of birds chirping right outside her window. It's like the universe is taunting her, reminding her that she can't even find peace in the morning. Ivy couldn't help but yell out in frustration, "Fuck!"Ivy let out a deep
Ivy tried to shake off the negative thoughts and focus on the present. She had to get dressed and head to the living room to meet the said "special person." She certainly did not know what to expect, but just had a feeling that it wasn't going to be a pleasant encounter.After finishing her bath, she got dressed in a simple black dress, at least that was the only cloth that she could manage, the rest looked so awful. Ivy quickly utilised the boxes and creams she found on the make-up stand, she didn't really know what she was doing because they were quite different from what she used in the 21st Century. She just applied the same principles and it came out quite okay even when she wasn't really pleased by it.Ivy glanced at the mirror and tried to put a fake smile on her face. She wouldn't want everyone to know this was an act because she is still yet to know what is going on with her.But just as Ivy was starting to feel relaxed, she heard a loud banging on the door. "Amelia, hurry up
The room was still filled with tension, Ivy wasn't giving in and Azrael wasn't either. Amelia's parents wanted to clamp on Ivy so bad and tear her apart but Azrael requested that no one should meddle in their affairs.Everyone was throwing evil glances at Ivy and she just went on and ignored them all. Alpha Azrael could not express his shock enough, it felt like he wasn't expecting such behaviour from Ivy, of course, he wasn't infarct everyone was like that and Ivy couldn't help but think how much they have bullied the little girl but now, that will surely not happen again.He drew closer to Ivy once more trying to intimidate her with his height, but she wasn't giving in. Not even a bit. "It seems you want to be unfortunate Mr Alpha. I already told you before but I guess you want to see me in action." Ivy could see the angry look on his face as he retired back to his seat.Ivy stood her ground as Azrael retreated to his seat, the tension in the room slowly dissipating but still palpab
