 Lyka's P.O.V It has been a week since Gabriel started training me. If am to say, I wouldn't call it actually training but a lot of load work. We have done nothing like boxing or any martial arts but a bunch of load work, running, skipping rope, carrying weights, logs. I am losing my patience with this kind of training. This is not going to help me to become better, in fact it is only draining me to the extreme. Waking up really early to lift weights or run and by the time I go to sleep, I have a lot of muscle pain. This is getting on my nerves. Not only the hard work but also Gabriel, he has been nothing but a complete asshole to me. He only barks orders, loses patience easily, scolding me at each mistake and threatening me. I really hate him for re

Their work was done here and the work was mine now I guess with the all the training Gabriel is making me do.I now regret the time I opened my mouth to say that I needed real training because I am hitting the punching bag for the hundredth time, I feel like fainting. "Alright, we are done here." Gabriel announces.I sigh hard and thank the heavens for this time because this is torture. I grab my bottle gulping down the water till it's almost done.I feel every muscle in my body ache due to a lot of boxing and physical exercises. "Lime water will help with the muscle pain and som

I want to shout so that someone could hear me and run to my rescue."Silent, if you dare open that mouth of yours, I won't hesitate slicing this beautiful neck of yours." my captor says in a harsh tone pressing the blade closer on my skin. I wanted to think it is a night mare but when I opened my eyes again, t

Lyka's P.O.V To say I was shocked was an understatement, I was freaked out. When I realized the owner of the voice, I gaped unbelievably.It was an old woman with short grayish hair facing towards the fire place her back to us.Then how did she know I was here. She wasn't even facing us and she knew I was here and she knew my name. Immediately the woman turned to us and I am not surprised to see her wrinkly face. What shocks me the most are her eyes which lack irises and pupils, her eyes are white. No one looks baffled or scared at all and in fact their faces are neutral except mine. I now realize that the guards and Sebastian are out perhaps protecting us from any trouble.Now I am wondering how s

Lyka’s POVI don't feel sleepy tonight with all the things that can't just stop going inside my head. I can't stop thinking about what the old lady showed me. The pain I felt seeing the Apocalypse was just so unforgettable. I couldn't erase the painful cries of pain and the massacre I witnessed. People were covered in pools of blood, children inclusive. It was just so terrifying. Then there is Gabriel, the man can't seem to leave my head. When I think about what happened this morning, I feel angry with the way he treated me. We literally said nothing during training but we both knew that the way I moved was due to anger and I wanted to hit him so bad. The fuckin moron didn't even apologize for what he did. Gabriel is either bipolar or something because one time he is making me feel these things and the nex
