Brenda forgot something.The point she was supposed to have considered a long time ago only struck her when she arrived at her pack in a feat of rage. "That bitch!" She yelled suddenly as she held a glass of water in her hand. "How did I just remember this now?" She asked herself. "Fuck!" She bellowed.Her grip on the glass tightened so hard until the point that it shattered and the water splashed everywhere. A maid who had been observing ran towards her with a look of shock and horror, "Oh my goodness, Princess Brenda!" She exclaimed and bent to pick up the splinters of the glass.She suddenly paused, the water spilled on the floor was turning pink, no it was a deep shade of red. When the maid looked up, she saw that it was Brenda who was bleeding from a cut on her fingers. "Dear me!" The maid rushed out of the room and came back holding a napkin. Brenda was still fuming, completely oblivious to the scene the maid was absorbed with. How could Lucas do this to her? That wasn't even
They moved in the dark like the highly trained professionals they were.They were so stealthy that when they walked into the house Brenda didn't realize it until they were next to her. She almost jumped when she saw Shaw and his men, dressed in all black. "Oh, my fucking goodness! You startled me!" She exclaimed with sleep-laden eyes.She looked at the huge wall clock in the living room, it was almost three in the morning, she stared at Shaw eagerly and questioningly. "We are sorry to have startled you, Princess Brenda. " He said slowly. "The work is done." Just the news she had been waiting for all these hours, it was a melody to her ears. She nodded at him, not wanting to show how excited and satisfied she was about Madeline's death. No one, absolutely no fucking person could talk about her in such a way and go off so easily, it couldn't just happen. "Good, but that's not all, Shaw." She said and he raised an eyebrow at her. She didn't even need to ask if he had carried out the m
When her eyes opened again, Riley's blood turned cold immediately.A very fetid smell came to her nostrils and she suddenly realized what was happening when her blurry eyes saw the black, ominous objects around her. Vultures! They had surrounded her, four of them, thinking she was dead. She was so tired and weak, but the fear of the sharp beaks of the ugly birds digging into her flesh made a rush of adrenaline fuel her for a short period. The birds watched with their crooked necks and hideous bald heads keenly and when their prey moved, they took steps back. Riley's groping hand found and gripped a stone and she hurled it at one of the big birds. They scampered away, but not too far, they hung and waited on low branches of nearby trees. With a desperate effort, Riley struggled to her feet and tottered forward. Her knees felt wobbly and like they were going to give up on her anytime soon, her body was burning with exhaustion. She was starving, her whole body was weakened, languid,
"Nothing? Nothing?" Lucas bellowed as Dolph walked in with the news.Dolph sat down on a chair and breathed deeply, "You've got to relax, Lucas. The men haven't found her yet but I assure you, they will." He said. "There's no fucking way she can outrun them for long, you know, those are trained men and they know the forest better than she does. They'll surely get her.""I'm not fucking convinced, if she remains in that bloody forest for too long, who knows what will happen to her!" Lucas said, his voice angry and worried. "You know her scent, don't you?" Dolph nodded, "Yes, I do." He replied."If by this evening, those men do not have anything reasonable to report to you, we'll move in tomorrow," Lucas said, his face contorted and his eyebrows furrowed. "I won't let her get away, not with my child in her womb and not after all that stuff Madeline said.""Thought you didn't take Madeline's answers that seriously," Dolph remarked. "Well, this is different, when I get fed up with this
The other maids in the house stared at her as though she was an alien that had just fallen from space. This town was so small and old-fashioned that a visitor was such a rare thing. In the room Riley had been kept in, from time to time the maids snuck in one by one to have a look at her while the others peeped from the door which was left ajar.Riley had been unconscious for almost six hours and she woke up when she felt something poking at her face. Slowly and with a groan, she opened her eyes and stared at the startled maid who was poking at her cheeks in awe. The maid froze, terrified, she let out a scream that rang throughout the room and Riley was so surprised by her actions. The other maids at the door, noticing what had happened scampered away but when they turned, they froze as they saw Caleb staring at them."What the hell are you all doing here?" He bellowed and they bowed their heads and walked briskly away, leaving the frightened maid stranded in the room. "Ugh! They can b
Caleb was extremely nice to her and he had no other intentions towards her other than to help her recuperate fully. The only doctor in the small town was quite busy when Caleb walked into his small office in a stone building. When the bald, middle-aged doctor saw that it was Caleb and he noticed the urgency in his voice, he decided to suspend what he was doing."What's the matter, Caleb?" The doctor asked."You need to come with me, doctor, I've got an injured girl who fainted on my doorstep. She's got bruises all over her." Caleb replied in haste.The doctor frowned but he didn't ask any questions until they were on their way, walking briskly towards Caleb's beautiful house. "You said she fainted on your doorstep? Who is she?" The doctor asked.That was a question Caleb couldn't answer, he didn't know who Riley was or where she had come from, all he knew was her name. "I don't know, doc." He replied and the doctor shot a stern look at him from the corner of his eyes and asked in bewi
Lucas was furious and irritated at the same time as he stared at Dolph who stood with his head bowed down at the doorway. "I should imprison all of you, shouldn't I?" Lucas asked angrily. Dolph nodded furiously, "Yes, they all need to be dealt with!" He concurred vehemently. Lucas glared at him, "Without the exception of you too, Dolph!" He snapped. Dolph's eyes widened, "Me? What did I do?" He asked, aware that Lucas wasn't kidding with his words. "Exactly!" Lucas exclaimed and got to his feet. "The same question I've been asking myself for about four days now, what have you done?" Dolph frowned, "Oh common, don't push this entire search mission on me, I do not have bloody clones, neither am I fucking omnipresent or something." He retorted. Lucas squinted at him, "What the fuck do you mean by that, Dolph?" He asked in a menacing tone, but Dolph wasn't to be intimidated this time. "What I fucking mean by that is that I have to be at the pack office every bloody day to make
Brenda didn't speak to Lucas for a while, she was still staying at his pack for a reason.She wanted to know how progress with the search for Riley was going while still keeping up with reports from her men. From the latest reports, her men were convinced that she was not in the forest. They had combed the entire forest and frankly, they were surprised how she got past there despite the wild beasts that flocked the forest. One night she met with one of them, Shaw, who was in charge and he reported news that shocked her."We were attacked by beasts, the Sabertooths seem to have taken over that entire area. We lost two men last night, but that was due to their carelessness." He said with a grim expression on his face and faint traces of blood smeared on his collar and neck. "I warned and alerted everyone to keep a sharp eye out for attacks like this so any man we lose didn't take the warning." He frowned and she did too. "With how dangerous the forest is, we became open to the idea tha
