Scarlett's POVAfter our hot make out session, all I wanted to do was rest in Henry's arms. I told him about how I acted like Niyol's maid today and how Chester brought in a new girl. That piqued Henry's interest as we talked about that lady called Julianna who doesn't look like she was going to mind her business. She came acting all high and mighty and tried to her poke nose into my affairs. Hmph! I would think of what to do with her later. Let me keep watching her.Just as we were discussing, there was a knock on the door and Henry's gamma told him he was needed by Niyol and that he also collected some of his handwritten documents.I realized immediately that something had gone wrong.. and that something had to do with the letter that Henry sent to that cursed girl.After assuring me that everything was going to be fine, Henry left, leaving me in fear and uncertainty.I couldn't fathom why I panicked immediately I heard the message. I just hoped that everything was fine over there
Henry's POVAfter battling with my thoughts for a while, I concluded that there was nothing to lose. After all, Scarlett's father was an influential man and I could always get what I want. There was nothing to think twice about. My father was just being paranoid.Besides, there was no going back now. I had come too far to quit. I went to where I and Scarlett usually meet since that was the location she gave me, I got there before her. As I waited for her arrival, I had different thoughts. Some were thoughts of relief as to what might have happened if I hadn't played smart today. Something needed to be done about Julianna Roberts because I was sure this was not the last time such a thing would happen between the two of us.Scarlet finally arrived and started hitting me with questions that annoyed me a bit. Here I was thinking about how to clear my head and there she was pressuring me with questions and giving me a headache."If you keep on asking like this, how do you expect me to an
Chester's POVI stood as I watched Niyol scrunched up his face in excruciating pain. I ran to him and held him. His body was already shaking as a result of the pains and I couldn't bear it. I could feel anger surge through me because there was nothing I could do to stop the pain. How I wish there was a way I could take the pain in his stead. I couldn't imagine the pains Koko was going through now.For goodness sake, these two people had suffered a lot already! Why couldn't they be happy? They deserved to be happy."They will all pay for this! Those bastards won't go unpunished! When I lay my hands on them, I'll make sure to tear them limb by limb!" Niyol's yell snapped me out of my reverie. "Hang in there, Koko. It won't be long now," He said with a hopeful glint in his eyes which made me almost tear up. I shouldn't have left him. If I was around, things might have taken a different turn. I wanted so much to deal with those hoodlums and I would make sure I do just that."We won't sp
Koko's POVI wriggled in the cage because I was uncomfortable. On top of that, I was aching all over my body, which made it harder for me. They had obviously turned me into a dog. 'I swear the moment I get out of here, I would make Niyol wipe them all out.' I coughed and I could swear I got the taste of blood in my mouth.I looked at the man who stood to guard me. "Please, can I get water?" I asked. My plan was not to drink the water. It seemed my fever was acting up again and I needed to wash my face with water... cold water if I could find any.They looked at him in disgust and one said, "We can't give you water, Missy. Boss's orders."I almost scoffed at the word "Boss", Scarlett had really pissed me off. Telling me to give up the man that gave me hope. I didn't plead further to avoid getting them angry. I wasn't ready for a third round of beating and torture today. I was already weak.I glanced at my stomach and rubbed it with my palm. If I was really pregnant, then I had to stay
Julianna's POVAs I left Chester behind, I couldn't help but smile to myself. Why was he being jealous all of a sudden? If he wasn't then why did he suddenly develop interest in my personal life? I sighed as I waved the thoughts away. I was about to go down the stairs when I saw him hurry past me. Is he angry or did his feelings get hurt?"Hey, where are you going?" I asked him, but he didn't answer. Whatever!I rolled my eyes and got down from the stairs. I was about to walk out, when I saw Laci coming in. She was in such a hurry that she didn't notice me."Laci?" I called and she turned to look at me. Her once serious face lit up with a grin."Julianna, how are you doing?" She asked."I'm fine. You?" I asked as I scrutinised her face. She looked stressed out and tired. I was sure that the Alpha sent her home to rest, but she found her way back here."I'm good." She answered."You don't look good. Come on, stop worrying too much. Everything will be back to normal before you know i
Scarlett's POVLast night was cold and I couldn't get a good sleep. My thoughts were all jumbled up as I thought of many things. First, it was Koko's kidnap, second was the arrival of Julianna and now, we needed a plan to clear things up. I didn't know why this Koko's case became different. Like, she wasn't the first person to get kidnapped. Why was hers difficult?I sighed and stepped down from the bed. I had to visit the palace today and act as the Alpha's maid again. Gosh! I couldn't wait for all these to be over. I had my bath and rubbed a bit of lotion on my perfect and flawless skin. I flipped through my wardrobe and settled for a white off shoulder gown. It wasn't too long or too short. It was moderate. If I wanted to please the Alpha, I should probably put on something that described a princess. I packed my hair in a messy bun and applied pink lipstick. I checked myself out in the mirror. "You can't resist me for long, Alpha Niyol. Sooner or later, you will become mine and
Scarlett's POV"Scarlett, are you alright?" Laci ran to me."I'm fine, it's no big deal." I said."Sorry about that." Niyol said.I forced a smile and nodded my head."Come on, I'll go help you clean up." Laci offered."No problem, I'll do it myself." I stood up and started walking out. At least it would give me some minutes away from her. I met Chester at the door and he looked at me."What happened to your dress?" He asked."It's nothing." I answered and left.I went to the bathroom and wiped myself clean. I stared at the mirror to pull my thoughts together. If I make any mistake here then our cover would be blown. I had to tolerate this girl as much as possible today. "I can do this!" I exhaled and stepped out of the bathroom.I wasn't surprised when I saw her outside, waiting for me. I pretended not to see her and made my way to the room."It looks like you're avoiding me." She said.I halted and turned. I chuckled and went to stand in front of her. "Why would I avoid you?" I ask
Julianna's POVWhat a morning!I flipped the pen I held with a smirk on my lips. Things were finally becoming clearer. If things went the way I've planned, we would find Koko in no time. I chuckled as I remembered my conversation with Scarlett. That lady sure knew how to put up on act. If I wasn't a professional, I would have believed her right away? She hadn't spent anytime with Henry? Let's see how true that statement is."What are you doing standing there all alone and smiling to yourself?" I turned to see Laci walking towards me with a tray of food in her hands. I put the pen in my shirt pocket and smiled at her."Oh, good morning, Laci." I greeted."Morning. It seems you had a goodnight sleep, seeing that you're smiling so much." She teased."I did, but that is not why I am smiling." I said. "Why are you holding that by yourself? Hand it over. I'll help you." I said and held the tray."It is not really necessary." She tried to resist"I insist." I collected it from her and she
