KELLY POV

I gasped as Dain forced me to sit, and Holly chuckled before pulling him closer. Then she kissed him again, this time with her eyes on me.

It felt as if my heart was ripped out of my chest and her betrayal stinged even more than Dain's. We are like soul sisters, and I love her so damn much.

I didn't expect this from Dain or even from her. I have never felt so heartbroken all my life; she pulled away, smirking at me.

"How did that make you feel?" She taunted.

"Nauseous," I replied, wiping the tears on my cheeks; it didn't stop more from falling. 

This is Holly, my nice friend that looks out for me, the one that was worried that I would get lost in the crowd last night. 

The one I shared everything with, and nobody knows her like she knows me; she is the reason I'm not in college now. I gave her my savings because she had a debt she wanted to pay.

This is how she repays me? Sleeping with my boyfriend behind my back and holding a knife at me.

"Oh, don't cry, you poor thing. Look at how she is crying like she's the innocent one," she pouted.

Dain left for her room, and it was just the two of us. I glanced at the door. I can escape if I play my cards right. "Don't even think about it; if not, I will gut you and call it a day," she threatened with an unhinged glint in her eyes.

"You see you and I are different; we are so different, and sometimes I wondered why you didn't notice. I didn't sleep with your boyfriend because I fell in love with him or something; I only did it to spite you, and I saw how you were head over heels in love with him, so I seduced him, and I might have told him something about you." She shrugged and started laughing hysterically like a maniac.

Oh my goodness, is she possessed?

"When did this happen?" I asked to see if I could buy some time to make my escape; she is crazy, and I don't need anyone to confirm that. 

"I don't know, two months ago? Three months ago? Or let's see... A year ago?" She chuckled while playing with the knife in her hand.

"What did I ever do to you?" I asked and she scoffed. 

"What did you ever do to me? Let's see is the fact that you are a worthless little whore or that you are a snake!" She snarled, pointing the knife at me. I have to think fast before she cuts me. 

"You went ahead and dated Carl, even when you knew how I felt about him, you worthless piece of shit! You go around acting like a little Miss Goody two shoes when you are just a little slut," she accused.

"What the hell are you talking about? You never told me you liked Carl; I didn't even like that guy; he's my ex for crying out loud! You didn't say anything when I told you he asked me out," I yelled. If this is about my ex, then she has got to be kidding me. 

He wasn't my type, and we only dated for a few months before I ended things with him. I met Dain right after, and we started dating.

She never told me anything about this, and I'm surprised the whole thing is about him. "You see why I hate you; you act like you are so good when you really are a bitch. Carl wasn't interested in me after he saw your stupid, beautiful face. I saw him first, and I fell for him first, then you just had to come in and ruin it all with your slutty eyes and pretty face. I hate you for taking that away from me. Guess what? Your useless boyfriend didn't even try to stop me from making advances on him. It started with one phone call. I lied that you were sick; he rushed down while you were away, and I lied that you were cheating. After that, I gave him a good head, and he resisted only at the beginning, but soon I had him eating out of my palm. You know how men think of women as fickle, but it's the opposite, and I didn't even have to try hard." She laughed.

"You are a monster," I spat, and she grabbed my hair, pulling so hard my scalp burned in pain. 

"Yes, my dear, and I'm going to enjoy showing you what this monster is capable  of." She raised the knife to stab me, and I didn't think twice before throwing my weight on her.

We crashed on the table, and her grip on my hair loosen, so I made a run for it, only for her to grab my hair again, pulling me back. 

Pain crossed through my veins as she sank the knife into my right shoulder, and I screamed in pain, "If you think you will be leaving this place alive, then think again. Don't worry, I won't dump you in a ditch. Your boyfriend suggested we dump you in an abandoned alley full of trash. Don't worry, the police will find your body quickly so you can rest in a morgue. I'm sure we'll be out of the country when they start investigating. We are leaving in two  two hours." She whispered into my ear and ripped the knife out.

I cried out in pain, then I hit her stomach with my elbow. She grunted and let go of me. My shoulder was bleeding badly, and I needed to leave before she got to me again.

"You are just a sour, jealous bitch!" I yelled, holding my bleeding shoulder as I turned to kick her stomach. She yelled, calling for Dain as I kicked her again, and then I quickly ran for the door just as I was about to twist the doorknob.

A heavy weight crashed on my back, and I wailed as Dain dragged me back. Holly had recovered, and she glared at me before stabbing me again in my left thigh.

Dain held my hands behind my back with his other hand on my mouth; my screams were muffled, and I lost hope as she stabbed my right thigh. 

Dain let me go, and I fell on the ground with a large thud. I couldn't walk, so I started crawling away from her.

"Now it's time to finish it." She raised the knife again, and I screamed.

The door burst open, and I heard a gunshot. My eyelids were heavy as I was losing blood, and my vision was blurry.

I caught a glimpse of some men in black suits before I passed out.

    Kelly's POV One week later.“I am confident I can hold her, Alex. It's been a week and I have added four kilograms to my former weight. I am strong enough.” I sat up straighter in the hospital bed, my voice filled with quiet determination. Alex's worried eyes softened, but he wasn't convinced. He hesitated, hovering close while taking in every detail of my face. I could tell from his soulful brown eyes that he was still worried I might break. I stretched out my arms expectantly, my heart pounding as Ivy’s little giggle filled the room. “Please, Alex. I am strong enough to hold her. You worry too much.”Finally, Alex sighed and placed her gently in my arms. Warmth spread through me instantly. It was electrifying and tears were pricking my eyes. I kissed her soft cheek, whispering, “Mommy’s here now, pumpkin.”Ivy giggled and I hugged her, sniffing her natural fragrance. “Today Martha is hearing at the court by noon. I would be attending with my lawyer,” Alex said firmly, his voice

    Kelly's POVThe gun shot rang out, loud and deafening, echoing through the walls like thunder. My whole body froze, my feet rooted beneath me, my ears ringing as the smell of smoke filled the air. I squeezed my eyes shut, certain that the bullet was aimed at me and that this was probably the end of the world for me. But when I slowly opened my eyes only to realize I was still standing. With a trembling hand, I reached for my temple and touched it, no wound, no pain, no blood. Wait…..what?Why am I still standing?Who was the gunshot for?.I turned slightly and there was the almighty Adrian staggering back while clutching his chest. Fresh blood seeped through his shirt as his gun slipped from his hand.Relief and shock wrecked my body at once.I am alive!I am alive!I shouted in my head and without thinking, I bolted forward, my legs moving based on my instinct and without warning, I threw myself into Alex’s arms. His arms wrapped around me instantly, strong and steady, as if he

    Kelly's POVThe twisting of the door knob forced me out of unconsciousness.The door creaked and Adrian stepped in, holding a plate of food. He placed it nonchalantly on the floor, the content spilling on the floor. I stared at the unrecognizable substance in the plate that was both nauseous and disgusting I raised my head, our gaze locked.“Let me go, Adrian.” I muttered with the falling strength I had in me.This was my fifth day in captivity without food and barely a few drops of water to quench and sustain me. My meals were always served at the same time, twice a day but I couldn't bring myself to eat it. It couldn't be poisonous and was highly unhealthy.Adrian grabbed a handful of my hair.“Shut up and eat, your arrogant fool.”Adrian’s grip on my hair tightened, but I refused to let him see the pain in my eyes. My lips curled into a weak, bitter smile. “Take your poison and eat it yourself, Adrian. I would rather die of hunger than to swallow a crumb from this filthy prison o

    Alex's POV The next day“Please be safe. Don't return without Kelly. We don't know what Adrian is capable of. I hope to see you soon. Ivy is also excited.” Daniella smiled sorrowfully while ivy wiggled my arms as she played with her hair.“Don’t worry, Dani. I will bring Kelly back. We are going to the address Adrian sent to us. I won't return without Kelly. I would rather die than leave without her. You have my word” I said firmly, brushing my hand over Ivy’s tiny fingers.Ivy giggled, tugging at my shirt like she always did. I felt a pang in my heart. These moments were moments I would forever cherish. I forced a smile. Daniella’s eyes glistened with worry, but she nodded, trusting me.“I believe every word you say, Alex.”I leaned closer, kissing Ivy’s forehead gently while whispering softly.“Daddy will bring Mommy back, pumpkin. That's a promise, okay? So be good to me before mom comes back and takes you away from me.” I kissed her forehead again.She babbled in her baby voice l
