Mag-log inSoraya’s POVI had come down with something the next day.The house was quiet with the storm outside still raging.I stayed curled beneath my blanket lost in thoughts.My body felt heavy.Too heavy.At first, I thought I was just exhausted from the constant tension, and self inflicted starvation but as the time dragged by, I could feel my skin burning.Despite the cold that enveloped the room, I was hot… too hot while I was under the covers and still too cold without the covers.To top that, my throat felt raw and with every movement every inch of my body ached.I swallowed painfully and tried sitting up to head to the kitchen but pain immediately shot through my body forcing me back down.Fuck Draven.This was definitely because of his idea of a punishment After the dunking… this raging storm had followed suit giving my body no time to recover.I tried resting and sleep came easily but it didn't last long.I had woken up minutes after because of how hard my head was pounding.At tha
Soraya’s POVI was fuming when I shut the door behind me.Angry at Georgia… and at Draven… angry at whether tension was between me and Draven.The hallway outside remained noisy with movement and whispering tense voices. I did this.And I LOVE IT.I moved toward the bed and I heard footsteps stop at my door but no knock ever came.He just walked in.Draven. “You know, normal people wait for permission.”He shut the door behind him.“Did you see the weapons, Soraya?”I stared at him in disbelief for a second.“Have you ever shown me any of your precious weapons before?”His expression remained unreadable.“You were in the cellar.”The reminder sent a cold feeling crawling down my spine.I kept my face neutral anyway.“So?”“So,” Draven said calmly, stepping closer, “it wouldn’t surprise me if you decided to hide them.”I blinked slowly.“You think I stole your weapons?”His gaze didn't leave mine,“No but I know you are angry at me.”And he deserved more hostility.“You dunked my head
Soraya’s POVI woke up to Draven’s thundering voice.That was very fast.My eyes fluttered open slowly, with my body still heavy with sleep. For a second, I didn’t move and just listened as Draven went on and on about the missing items.The room was dark except for the faint light spilling beneath my bedroom door.Then I heard another voice sounding just as confused, “I’m quite sure they were here yesterday.”A drawer slammed somewhere down the hallway.Shit.I just wasn't expecting it to be this soon.Another door opened and at the same time, one shut with a bang.I could hear their footsteps echo as they moved quickly across the hallway.“Search every room again, it didn't just disappear overnight.” Draven ordered coldly.My stomach twisted.I slipped out of bed and opened my door.They hadn't searched here though.As I stepped out to the corridor, I saw Lucas standing farther down the hall while Mateo was speaking quietly to one of the guards Georgia had brought along. Draven was
Soraya’s POVI hated how predictable my day was.Just like the previous days… I had spent the next morning in bed and by the time I dragged myself out of it… I felt so sore.It had been difficult to finally shut off those thoughts and go to bed… From Draven’s rules and regulations to me deciding to break one…Lucas’s mouth on mine while his hands teased everywhere.And down to where my day had ended up crashing down on me from Mateo smiling while driving a knife through someone’s hand.To Draven being a monster and forcing my face down into freezing water.The contrast made me sick.My stomach rumbled once again and I pushed the blankets off with a groan before doing myself out of bed.I didn’t need a mirror to know that I looked terrible.My hair was all over the place and the shirt I had on just hung very loosely on my shoulder.As expected, silence greeted me when I walked out the door.Prior to what I thought, I looked far, much worse… my eyes were swollen with a very obvious dar
Soraya’s POVIt was absurd how this felt almost normal.Like I was some high schooler sneaking around and not a grown ass married woman that had nowhere to go and is now stuck on the mountain with three brothers.Lucas lazily ran his fingers idly through my hair.“You smell like my soap,” he finally said, breaking the silence.I snorted.“That is a very creepy thing to take notice of.”“Then you are oblivious to how much I notice about you.”My heart did a stupid little leap in my chest and I sat up immediately.Nope…absolutely not.Lucas chuckled, “I saw this coming from a mile away… running already?”“I should go.”“You’ll come back.”I snorted.“In your dreams mister.”His grin widened, “And who says you aren’t already there?”I rolled my eyes, though a smile betrayed me.Idiot.I fixed my clothes, and after one last nervous glance at the corridor… I sneaked out.And without looking back, I ran on my tiptoes back to my room before shutting the door behind me.“What the hell was tha
Soraya POVI should have pushed him away or teased him just like he would have done me before reminding him of the rules Draven had forced down all our throats this morning.I had to admit it wouldn't make any sense though… I had left my room to enter his.So I just stood there… waiting.I didn’t miss the smug smile that had tugged in his lips before he closed the gap between us….His mouth crashed hot and wanting against mine.A low moan escaped my lips before I could stop it and he swallowed it greedily.One hand slid around my waist while the other cupped the back of my neck as though he was afraid I would change my mind and bolt.Which I probably should have done but my body’s will was in charge this time.My fingers curled into the front of his shirt, pulling him closer as I kissed him back..Lucas groaned softly.“That’s it,” he muttered against my lips. “I knew you were only pretending to hate me.”“I do hate you Lucas,” I whispered breathlessly.He chuckled.“Liar.”Before I c
Soraya’s POVA gasp escaped my lips and Mateo’s voice broke through the fog of tension that had surrounded us.What had I been doing?Reality dawned on me as the haze of desire, clouding my mind cleared in an instant.Looking at our close proximity, I pressed against Draven’s chest, shoving him away
Soraya’s POVLucas was out before I could ask him what he meant.I downed my breakfast before washing the dishes.There were a whole lot of things I could do if they didn’t want me distracting them, at least until I could think clearly about my next step.I didn’t even have a clue where the man had
Draven’s POVUpstairs, that mysterious lady was still breathing while my brothers had lost control of themselves… It had started out amusing, watching as they let their dick think for them all while she had even feigned being mute.What else has she lied about?“So she wasn’t being mute after all?”
Soraya’s POVNothing looked different. No crates or boxes despite the fact I had heard things being moved around.There was no sign that anything had been unloaded at all, which only made my curiosity turn to a fast growing unease.I crept closer to the open door and peeked outside.It wouldn’t hurt
