Semua Bab Sixty Days Of Fire: Bab 11 - Bab 20

"How is the food, Jacob?" I asked. He glanced at me briefly and continued eating. I pressed further "Do you have any plans this evening?" Still, he didn’t budge."I was thinking why not spend time together. It would be fun to get to know each other, you know." I winked at him.That made him feel awkward as he quickly pulled away. He asked, "What is the matter with you?""Nothing, I just want to get to know my husband," I said smiling But he doesn’t buy that, instead, he studied my face for a moment, and then he said "What are you planning by doing all of this?""Why are you talking like that?" I questioned acting like I am offended but trust me, I am not. "I’m just trying to get to know the man I’m forced to live with."He stared at me, and I smiled pretending like I meant my words. Then Jacob scoffed "Whatever is going on in your head Osline, dead it otherwise you’re going to regret it badly."I rolled my eyes. Jacob might be a monster but I believe he can’t do anything worse than

~ JACOB’S POVShe thinks she’s sneaky. She thinks she can just get her way around here and try to get me or Dominic to tell her something. She’s wrong.Dominic may not be the best person in my life but he’s still my brother and there is no way she can use him to get to me. Obviously, Dominic didn’t tell me she was trying to get answers from him, but I figured that out. It’s pretty easy to figure things out around here. You just have to be silent and pay attention.Even though Dominic isn’t the type to read, I could tell easily. What Osline doesn’t know is that Dominic himself can’t bring himself to talk about it. He says it was just as bad for him as it was for me, but to me, that’s not true.I was the one who went through hell. I was the one unable to sleep, think, and was completely pained. I was the one who suffered not him. He was just on the sidelines and he made things worse for me. That’s why I hate him and that’s why I’ll never forgive him. I walked back into the room and gl

Amani.That name has been ringing in my head since I read it and I can’t stop thinking about it. I don’t even want to stop, I want to find out everything about her. I already know who she is, now I just have to find out what happened to her.But how will I do that?I thought about trying to get the information from Jacob but I remember how it was last time. Jacob is a smart man, he’s gonna figure things out before I know it. And the second he finds out that I know about Amani, Jacob will do everything he can to make sure I don’t get more information. And if I decide to go to Dominic, he would never say a thing. I’ve already mastered Dominic, he may not be in good relations with Jacob but he’s on his side. Otherwise, he would have told me everything I needed to know.Now, I have no other options which only means, I’m on my own. I just have to figure it out my way, even if it means doing it in the most cheeky way.I turned my attention to the servants working in the kitchen. They could

Day two of one week.Today is a special day and I can’t help but feel really excited about it. Today marks two years since Noah and I started dating. It’s supposed to be extraordinary for me and him but given the situation, we just have to make it a little ordinary so no one will suspect a thing. Usually, Noah and I spend the whole day together, and then we have a candlelight dinner and dance under the stars. Even though things are different now, I’m gonna make sure the dance under the stars happens. I sat on the couch and started writing a letter for him. I do that every year and I’m making sure to do it this year. I just don’t care how things are right now, I want to make it a special night for Noah. He really deserves the best after everything that has happened. When I finished writing the letter, the door suddenly opened and I quickly hid the letter under the table. Jacob walked into the room fuming "Who gave you the right to speak to the servant?" He questioned as he approach

The moon rolled over and the sun shone brightly. I haven’t slept all night, and now I feel exhausted.Jacob finally rolled back to his sleeping position, but regardless, I still couldn’t sleep knowing that at any moment, Dominic was going to come and tell Jacob everything.I have already started predicting how Jacob would react.He wouldn’t still let me leave, that’s for sure. He would just make it extremely unbearable for me to stay around here. And he would probably stop my dad’s treatment as a punishment for me. As for Noah, I don’t even want to think of what he can do to him.Lost in my thoughts, Jacob’s voice filled the air. "Did you commit an offense that you found it hard to sleep?"My eyes snapped to him. I didn’t realize when he woke up. I said, "What makes you think I didn’t sleep?""It’s pretty obvious. Your eyes are swollen from exhaustion," He said pointing at them. "I hate to pretend to care, but I’m curious—why were you up all night?"The pit in my stomach twisted. I lo
