Chapter 13A tit for titI have barely settled to have my bath when I hear his thick Baritone voice from the outside. I sigh in resignation, uttering just a single prayer... I pray within me that he doesn't come any Closer... I will not what to do and neither will I be able to bear the Shame that will bring."Are you not done in there or do you plan to spend the entire day there?" He snap at me without thoughts for my feelings. I shudder a bit as I take first scoop of water. It land on my back and I recoil a bit. It's extremely cold but I have no choice... I have to take my bath and head to wherever it is they want me to go.Within a few minutes, I finish with my bath and head out of the shack, with my sack cloth wrapped round my body. I catch the guard staring lustfully at me but I can do nothing. I keep my mute and follow closely Behind him. All I can think of is the job I am going for and how it's going to be. He leads me to a beautiful section of the house where there are a lot o
"how dare you do this to me? How dare you?" Jr growls as he places his hand on the spot where I slice him. He begins to call for help and almost immediately, some wolves hurry in at once, looking frantically around. They are shock when they see their boss in a pool of his own blood and then he clutching me tightly."Beat her up! She's a thief. She is here to steal" he yells to his men who takes up the order at once, making me wonder how easy it is die Someone to come up with so great a lie. I am in a maze as they begin to beat him, hitting me all over like I am nothing but a piece of thrash. My eyes travels around in search of help but there is no one to help me. I continue to yell at the top of my voice. "Help me! Help me! I am innocent!" I yell with pains in me. I can hardly bear it anymore and I feel a strong will to die. All I have had to bear for a long while is nothing but pains and I am sick and tired of it."Yes, teach her a lesson and make sure she doesn't go Scot free..."
I am shocked at the way he speaks to me withing few seconds. Few seconds back, he is nice and gentle with me and now he's changed so greatly. I feel a strong urge to cry but I manage to hold back my tears as I don't want him to feel I am weak or something like that. I stare at him without taking my gaze off him for even a split second."Why are you staring at me that way?" He says with a firm voice that does nothing but piss me off... Yeah, that's the word... It pisses me off."It's nothing sir." I maintain the frown on my face and I can see his face fall the moment I addressed him as sir."Will you do what I ask you to do it will you rather have me treat you like who you truly are?" He thunders at me sending shivers down my spine. I am left in shock... I wanted to end it all... I want to stop being winter Armstrong... I doubt if I can bear the pain much longer.... I have only started as winter Armstrong but I am sure I've gone through a lot more than she will have if she is to be ali
He is in shock as he didn't expect that I will yell back at him. He stares at me and I'm very much sure what his stare means. He must be wondering how it is it I came to become so brave when I should be scared. I am indeed scared but I manage to hide him from him because the moment he finds out, it will be used greatly against me and that's the very last thing that I want. "You do know you've got some nerves young lady?" He ask without taking his eyes off me. I can see he is a bit fascinated but I am not moved. I "And do you expect me to be some cowering fool who do nothing but get scared at the mere sound of people? I wasn't raised in that way!" I respond at once, the anger in me growing by the seconds. "Oh, a very nice way to speak to the Alpha's son!" He announce and I shocked because never have It crossed my mind that he is someone of so great repute in the palace. I open my mouth to speak but no words come out of them. "Why are you so speechless? The cat Suddenly got your to
I can feel my ears ringing.I have been running blindly through these bushes but I can't seem to make myself stop. I know that I will be covered in bruises and thorns will make my skin their new home. I don't care though, better thorns in my flesh than these thoughts in my head. They are intrusive, taking over my whole being. What just happened in there? What did we just do? I just wanted to die, carve my heart out and end my misery. But he came, he had to stop me. I should have felt it. I should have known that there was someone beside me. "Stop it, Winter," I chide myself. Maybe it would have been different if I had chosen a different spot. I can still taste his lips on mine. The way he kissed me like he wanted me. It did not feel wrong, I wanted to melt into him too. I know that this is wrong, he should not have done that. I am just a slave, after all. If Patrick finds out, he will have my head on a platter by tomorrow. I have to stop running. My feet can't hold up any m
I can not believe my ears. He said it. He has finally said it. I thought he didn't care. After what happened in the morning, I thought he just wanted to use me like all the other men. But he is different. He cares about me. I like how it makes me feel warm inside. My tummy feels like a big pot of squishy goo and the butterflies won't stop fluttering. I feel alive right now. I kiss him back. Nikolai. I kiss him with such frenzy that I forget that I am standing before him stark naked. He does not seem to mind my state of undress. He kisses me back with such fervor that we end up on the floor. He cups my face gently and kisses my forehead. It is sweet and gentle, nothing like I have ever felt before. In this moment, I feel all my walls crumble. My defenses are broken right now and I don't think they will ever go up again. I look at him with my night vision and I can see the desire in his eyes. My breath hitches and emotion wells up in my throat as I look up at him. "Nikolai," I mutter
I heave a sigh of relief and I proceed with what I am doing. Somehow, I don't know why I seem to care for him more than I should. My eyes flicker around until they rest of him."I'm glad you arrived when you did. Goodness knows what would have happened!" I mutter as I place my hand on my chest, pacifying myself a bit."You do not have anything to worry about... You should just be careful next time and not allow anyone find you out!" He says, flashing me a bright smile. My heart is tickled by it and I want to run right into his hand but I cannot do so. Others may be watching and then they will suspect something's going on between the both of us."Yes I will... I have to return now," I say, wink at him and then Saunter off. My head is filled with all thoughts of the previous times we spent together and she smiles. A wide grin adorns her face, making me look more beautiful.The others notice the constant smile on my face and I can bet the so badly want to ask me about it but definitely d
I sigh as I realize what is about to happen to me. I brace myself up for the worse but with that, I'm still not ready. I know my father and I know just what he can do when he is upset. He can everything you never imagine that he will do, so I begin to think of the excuse to give to him not to save myself but to save winter who he wouldn't spare.My dash swashes through the floor and he knows he has to do something about it with away. His pace is out of this world and with in a jiffy, he arrives at the palace with his head high. He sighed once again before heading in to meet his father in his chambers where he knows he will be."You sent for me dad!" I say to him at once, Unable to stare him in the face. I can't bear to see the anger in his eyes and hell he must be feeling so disappointed in me but well, I don't give a damn about it. All I want is for winter to be saved from whatever he may be hatching."Yes I did send for you! How are you doing son? It's been a while since we last sp
