GREY'S POVAfter that, I knew nothing again. Everything after that was not clear to me till I woke up. Sounds of water dripping ws all I heard and I could feel the cold breeze touching me despite being in a room with no window. I knew immediately that I was captured so I put my head down waiting for any sound. I could see water dripping from my hair and my wound was still bleeding gently. I definitely must have lost a lot of blood but that's not what I'm concerned about now. I just hope I'm not dead before my men arrive. That is if they can even get where I am. Damn, I have done stupid plans sometimes. At least if I could fight my way out of this place, I'll be able to run somewhere but I don't even know where I am. "Is he awake? Looks like he's still out." I heard a man's voice. "Are you sure he is not dead?" Another man asked. I could see the shadows of the three people because the room was lit. "No he can't be dead. He was breathing few minutes before I poured the water on hi
Mabel's POV,I was shocked at how events later turned out, the meeting was ruined. Wow! That was one hell of a fight and I couldn't help but be amazed by it, it seemed like the enemies had been preparing for Grey. Then it struck me, the previous day I had overhead Grey talking over the phone with someone about an enemy they had captured, so this was it. The car soon stopped and the guards hurriedly came out, a group of nurse and a doctor were waiting for us. They quickly rushed Lord Fredrick into the hospital.Few minutes later,"What's the condition he is in, doctor?" I asked immediately the doctor that had taken Lord Federick into a ward came out."He is in a critical condition ma'am, although the bullet missed his heart. But he needs to undergo surgery" he replied and walked away when I didn't say anything. What could I say? It's not like I even know the man, my thoughts wandered off to Grey and I suddenly started feeling uncomfortable. Nothing must happen to Grey or else my miss
Grey's POV,Jolting out of bed, I winced as the pain I was feeling couldn't let me sleep peacefully. I stood up from the bed and went over to my wardrobe. I changed my clothes into a towel and went into the bathroom to take a shower. While in the bathroom,I undressed my wound and turned on the shower, the feeling of the cold water on my skin was like rubbing salt on my wound. I quickly turned it off and walked out of the bathroom, fuming with rage. I took out my phone and dialled Ren's number. "Lord Grey?" I heard Ren's hoarse voice and frowned, it seemed like he had been enjoying himself."In the middle of a crisis Ren, you are having fun with ladies! Isn't it?" I asked with an harsh tone."I'm sorry Lord Grey, I was bored and decided to visit the pub* he explained."Leave there this instant and come to the underground" I said and disconnected the call. Keith, that old fool, I'm going to make sure he pays for what he did! Tightening my grip on my phone, I was fuming with anger and
"Lord Grey, it seemed like Keith knew you would be meeting with Lord Fredrick" Ren said as he showed me his phone, I collected it and stared at the photo that was displayed on the screen."Who's this man?" I asked."He has been spying on you for a long time and is also the one who told Keith about your meeting with Lord Fredrick" Ren replied, I stared at the photo for a long time before handing Ren his phone." So what are you waiting for? Go and get this bastard!" I ordered."He's in the torturing room, we caught him on that same day when he was trying to run away" Ren replied, I stood up from my seat. "Let's go there" I said and we started heading to the torture room. From one side of the cell, I could see the informant looking half dead. Ren opened the door of the cell and I walked in. "We've asked him to tell us how he knew you were going to meet with Lord Fredrick but he won't say anything" Ren walked over to the man who seemed to be asleep, Ren was about to kick the chair he w
The next day,Standing in front of the mirror as I stared at my bruised body, all thanks to Mabel that would come each day to dress them. If not for Keith, I picked up my phone and dialled Keith's number. "Keith, are you prepared?" I asked immediately Keith received the call, he was silent for a while. I could easily guess that he was surprised that I had his number and even called him."What do you want Grey?" He asked. "And how did you even get my number?!" He quickly asked."How did I get your number?" I mimicked and laughed a dry laugh. I had gotten Keith's number from the informant we had captured the other day. "Did you receive the gift I sent to you?" 'the gift' I sent to Keith was actually his informant's dead body."Yes I did" he replied and laughed. "Get ready to receive your own gift, Lord Grey" when he called me by my title I could sense he was trying hard to threaten me but I am not a fool to fall into his trap."Really Keith? You have a gift for me?" I asked sounding sa
Mabel's POV,I was angry that Lord Fredrick wasn't comfortable with me around them, well I guessed maybe because he didn't trust me. After all, they are planning to go on a war with Keith and wouldn't want their plan to be leaked.I was curious about what they were saying and decided to eavesdrop on them. Not long after, I heard footsteps and quickly pretended as if I was going to enter the room."Miss please wait a moment!" I heard the doctor's hurried voice and turned to him, I smiled when I saw him and noticed the doctor's red face when I smiled at him."Doctor?" I called and held the door knob, it seemed like what Grey said was true. The doctor's a real pervert! "What is it doctor?" I asked when he got closer to me."Oh Miss?" He trailed off indicating that I should tell him my name."Mab" I replied not sure if I should tell him my full name. "And also it's Mrs, not Miss. Mrs Creed" I quickly added. The doctor laughed and moved closer to me until there was just a little gap betwe
The next day,I woke up to find myself sleeping on Grey's chest, when I tried to raise my head to look at him, he pushed my head back to his chest."Sleep more," he ordered but I tried to stand up again. "What did I just say or didn't you hear me?" He asked, I couldn't see his face because my head was on his chest. I laid back on his chest, listening to his heartbeats.Grumbly I said, "But I'm hungry!''"I know that you'll be hungry by the time you wake up so I already asked a maid to prepare your food" he replied while stroking my hair."Thank you" I murmured. A knock was heard on the door."Come in, the door is opened" Grey ordered and the door knob moved slightly, the door opened and two maids walked in with trays of food in their hands."Lord Grey, the food is ready," one of them spoke up while they stood in front of Grey."Are they maids? Or…" I couldn't complete my statements because I wasn't feeling comfortable when I heard one of the maid grumbled.."Maids" Grey replied. "Set
"What is it Ren?" I asked when heard Ren's voice. "I just-" I cut him short when I heard the voice of a lady."You went to the pub today again, isn't it?" I asked, Ren chuckled and i heard him dismiss the lady."Yes" he replied and just when I was about to yell at him, he added. "But for a different purpose""What purpose would make you go to the pub if it's not to enjoy yourself Ren?!" I yelled but Ren was still laughing which made me mad. "Chill master" he said while giggling. "You didn't let me say the reason why I came here Lord Grey" he said with a mocking tone."I don't want to know!" I snapped. "Get the hell out of that place now!" I added and was about to disconnect the call."Even if it's about Keith?" He asked and I smiled at Ren's word. "Tell me what you know" I replied but he laughed. "What's funny?" I asked while frowning."Just now you were yelling at me for coming to the pub," he said."So?" I asked not caring about the fact that I had yelled at him."So?" Ren repeat
