**Charles POV**Time flies fast, and I wasn't having fun at all, I haven't even told Aria about it yet and yet, her eighteenth birthday was fast approaching.I was granted only eighteen year with him my daughter and I have spent it in trained being to toughen her.Her tears while her mom massages her body when we were done training did meet my ears.Aria respected me enough and never, for once, asked me why I was doing it, she just respected my decision.She knew something was definitely wrong and after asking in the very day my time with my daughter began counting, she never asked again.She just trusted me, even though didn't even trust myself anymore.I watched as she walked into the field as usual, for years now it has been this same ritual.After waking up and helping Aria, she would join me here before we proceed to the breakfast.I noticed immediately the foul mood on her face and frowned.No matter how hard I had pushed her, never, for once, have she joined me here with a bad
I was certain nothing else was making the whole of my body trembling this way except for one thing called fear.My eyes were empty of other emotions except for FEAR, it was filled with so much panic.The kind of fear that makes your skin crawl, the kind of fear that makes your bones shake..I straddled behind an oak tree, panting extremely hard. Eyes darting everywhere in the premises to confirm the people I was running away from were still behind me. Or maybe I had finally escaped from them.I was sobbing lowly, and every sound of my voice could be heard because of the heavy wind, so I pressed my palms against my mouth. But I couldn’t stop myself from crying, I pressed my hands so hard against her mouth when I noticed some sounds trying to leak out. please where is Jessica, she cannot die please..“ Where is the girl?” a man with a little broad shoulder sneered, his eyes scanning everywhere in the wood. god, I heard and smelled the anger in his voice, I felt like I wanted to immedia
“ Daisie!!!! it’s time to go to school,” I heard my aunt voice all the way from the kitchen. “ Get up or else you would be late for your last paper!” she yelled so loud, my aunt voice was usually so loud and active. No wonder she had always sang with my mom back then when I was much younger.“ Phew! Thank goodness it was just a dream. God please I don’t want to have a dream such as bad as this ever again!” I tightened my eyes. When I was about hopping out of my bed, I felt my covers drenched. Oh shit!, it must have been the dream. It was so terrifying as fuck. How can someone have such a dream scary as that?“ Daisy!! it’s 8am already, and you exam starts by 9am!!” she yelled again.“ I’m up aunt! I am getting ready, I would be there soon!” I announced as I quickly threw myself into the bathroom.I had less than an hour to be in the class room for my last papers, I rushed with my bath by spending just six minutes to bath. Maybe when I return I would take another bath before I assist a
Daisie POV I came out from the hall smiling beautifully. My last paper was a success and thank goodness I was done with school, that means I will have to join my aunt in her work and we don’t have to suffer any more from money. I know it wouldn’t be huge, but at least it would be better than the one my aunt brings back home. They say two head is better than one.“ Riley! I’m so happy we are finally done!” I heard Amal talking to Riley as they hugged themselves. I was standing alone at the entrance of our class. You must be wondering why no one has come to hug or congratulate me, that is because I have no friends.No one speaks to a poor orphan like me. Most of them all mocked at me either at my back or boldly to my face. But there is only one person who is different and that person is a guy.I stood for some minutes looking around the premises for the last time because I know I won’t step into this place ever again or even wear this uniform.I smiled to everywhere I turned to, I wal
Daisie POV After we finished eating lunch. I cleared out all the plates and returned them back to the washing basin.“ So can we discuss now, Jessica?” I asked, as I picked up the plate cleanser. Pouring it steadily on the dirty dishes.“ I had some more job left to be done, but I couldn’t. And they have been complaining a lot. Since you told me you would join me and you are done with school for now I was hoping you do them,” Jessica said, focusing at my eyes. “ They are mainly at night. But you won’t be staying two long, it would just be two hours only, Daisie.” she said politely, as if she wasn’t doing all these jobs because of me.“ Do you want me to be in charge of the ones at night?” I asked.“ Yes, can you Daisie?” her eyes are too cute when she speaks politely, they make my heart melt.“ YES OF COURSE!” I said, happily. I would do anything to support this beautiful soul.I didn’t tell you what the job is all about yet. My aunt does laundry and house cleaning for almost everyon
Daisie POV I remained locked inside the kitchen till I was no longer hearing any sound anymore. And it seemed the gathering party was over, because I couldn’t hear any noise any longer. I can’t tell how long I’ve been hear but I know it was past 1am already.I was still thinking on what happened to me some hours ago, why was I having so much heat inside of me? And those guys? And the odd smell?Out of the blue, I heard a knock on the door which jerked me out of my thoughts. “ I know you are in there, come out right now!” the voice sounded like an order, and I recognise that voice from earlier. It was the Beta’s voice.“ Come out now!” the second tone of the voice made me trembled. What is going on? I hope I haven’t caused any problem? I panicked..I slowly opened the door, and I met his rigid eyes filled with disgust. Maybe for me.. “ Come with me right now! I am taking you to the Alpha! All abominations or taboos must be killed just like others!” he said, and I froze. Sweating profu
Grey POVI crashed on the crispy dead leaves bearing the weight of a demigod. The smell of fresh blood excite me as a cake would excite a kid.The night falls into a dark thick blanket as the cloud gather up as though it was about to birth a storm. The cloud became thick and murky as the colour of a crow. I dug my knuckles full of blood into the wiggling branch of an oak tree.The blood on my knuckles wouldn't have been so exciting to me, only if they had not tempered with my Alisa. She would never have allowed her Grey out in the dark wood at this monstrous hour. But I don't care, my merciless beast had been invoked from its lazy slumber.The rogues ate my flesh and drank my blood as if it was some sweet wine- ah they dug their grave long before now. The agony would have been less severe if it was just her crying lonely in the shady room where she has always been locked in. At least it wouldn’t have made me go this wild. It had been better if I could only hear her silent tears from
Daisie POVIt’s been more than five days, I had completely been sold out to those people. I tried to hide everything from Jessica, but I forgot that she knew me in and out, just like a book. She knew despite being poor it has never for once gotten me depressed, but in the past five days she noticed a slight changes in my mood.Last night, I thought because it was dark she wouldn’t been able to see the bruises on me. The one the Beta and his mated had inflicted on me as their slave, my life was now like a toy. And if I dare protest, I- I am scared I will die.. and I can’t die and leave Jessica all alone here.. no I can’t..I had finished late just like the very first day I returned back late home. I had lied to Jessica that the work was bulky and everywhere was messy, so I had to spend some hours more to get the place completely tidy. I didn’t think I would be able to keep up with the lies, did I?I swear, I can bear being in pains but I never for once wants to see Jessica cry or in pa
