LilyI sighed. Looking out at the morning sky, at the first rays of dawn breaking the lightening sky hues, All of which was done with no Alexander in sight.Just like that, a week had passed without much fanfare.I missed it already. I would never have thought I would feel this way. It wasn't because of the luxury, of being taken care of. It was the ease at which I could forget the city I'd lived in, the job I still had.The continuous nightmares I woke up to every morning.I hadn't spoken to anyone else about it, not even Malina. Every night flashes of Ron's sneer and actions plagues me, mixing or merging with the kidnappers. Sometimes they turned into him and other times, it was all of them together.I woke up with chills everytime. But with every new morning, there was Emilia there to show me new things. People in the pack to meet and learn from. Nathan and Claire who cheered me up during the times they came around. But now, it was time to come back to reality.I spread my hands

LilyThe image of Chloe's crying face and Alexander's words followed me all the way to the garage. Had it not been for Nathan's call, I doubt I would have noticed him on time.As I entered, a song was playing on the radio, yet the only thing I could think of were his words.“Indispensable…”“Hey,” I was suddenly brought out of my bubble. I looked up to find Nathan's furrowed expression.“You’ve been out of space throughout the drive. Did something happen?” He asked.‘What?’ I quickly noticed that the car had been turned off. The greenery of the surroundings told me that we were back.Had I really spaced out for so long?Turning back to him his expression seemed even more worried, his scar creasing.Swallowing thickly, I shook my head in response,“Nothing happened. Just feels strange being at work right now.”‘Liar.’ I shook off the thought. It wasn't a complete lie after all and even though it didn't account for the continuous rumble of Alexander's voice in my head, it was a good excu

LilyWe chatted throughout until the sun was setting. Being around her was like a breath of fresh air, but it inevitably had to end. I waved her goodbye as she left the cafe, waiting for a few minutes before I texted Nathan to pick me up.He must not have been too far behind considering that in a matter of minutes, he was there.“Are you ready to go?” Nathan asked, a small smile brightening his scarred face.I nodded with a curt smile of my own before entering the car. In no time we drove off.The ride was silent and I took my time looking at the window.How things had changed. Before I used to walk comfortably on these streets. This city felt like it was mine. And now I was in a car that cost more than my yearly rent driving to a mansion and being under constant watch and supervision.Despite my initial fears and reaction, it didn't feel confining at all. I had grown comfortable. Under the protection I felt safe and no matter how strange it was, it was a better alternative than get

LilyI kept sneaking glances at him throughout the drive. He didn't seem too different, yet he looked more relaxed. Lighter.When we finally reached our destination a gasp let me. The restaurant he picked was one of the most expensive ones. It was already a privilege thanks to Malina to have entered the club all those months ago. This felt like a dream.A sudden sound startled me. I turned to the side to find the door open with Alexander hanging.‘Shit.’ I silently cursed. I spaced out, what was wrong with me?Either way, I had to rectify my mistake. I stepped out as quickly as I could, careful enough to not touch him.The place looked like a dream too, with the chandeliers, flowers and the reflective syrface. My breath hitched as I looked through everything.I walked with him until we were brought to the table.“Any orders for you?”All the letters and orders were jumbled in my head.“She’ll have the steak and some it's g juice.”I tensed when Alexander spoke, but soon relaxed.
