Lilith POVI was fuming in anger when I realized my room door was locked. However, I spun my body to look at who was heading towards me when I heard the clicking sound of heels."Hi Lilith, please follow me." Flora said this to me in a serious tone, and I gazed at her then began to follow her, and we both went in the direction of the upper floor of the mansion.We walked through the hallway leading to Don Thierry's room, making me wonder if he was asking to see me, but I got my answer in no time when Flora cracked the door of an opposite room open that wasn't his.I hastened my steps and entered along with her. I was greeted with the cozy air of the luxury room; unlike my other room, this one is dishing out the aura of luxury."This is your new room; congratulations, babe!" I heard Flora's voice, and I turned to look at her with a confused expression."What do you mean by my new room?" I asked, still finding it hard to comprehend what I just said."C'mon darling! "This beautiful room
Lilith POVSOME DAYS LATER..After taking a hot bath, I exited the bathroom and entered my bedroom, only to be greeted by a shadow figure.I jittered in fear. "Please don't kill me!" I screamed out while clutching my bathrobe as I pleaded for my life."Who is killing you?" I heard Don Thierry's melancholic voice and flung my eyes open to see if it was really him.He was sitting on my bed, and due to the dim light of the room, I couldn't see his face properly."Ah, good evening coach; I don't know it's you!" I said with a little laugh before approaching him."Hmm! "Scared cat, come and get dressed; we are going somewhere for your next training session." He proclaimed and stood up from the bed before walking over to my wardrobe, making me wonder what he was trying to do."Come here!" He demanded and then pulled off a set of clothes."Take it off!" He indicated my bathrobe, and I furrowed my brows at him. I wasn't wearing anything inside, and this damn man is requesting for me to take
Lilith POV"A earthscraper!" I shouted in excitement with stars in my eyes."Let's go, babydoll!" I heard Don Thierry say that to me before we walked into a nearby elevator.We were moved continuously underground before the elevator stopped us on the tenth floor.I rushed out of the elevator like an excited kid. I looked around the place. It had a steel framework, curtains, and walls of glass. The floor was made of steel tiles, and the windows were mirrored glass."This is so amazing! "I have never seen such a building like this, coach!" I screamed out in joy while stretching my arms over my head, then began to spin my body."Easy!" He cautioned me with a charming smile that I had never seen before."So cute!" I whispered in my head, then calmed myself.After taking time to enjoy the view of the place, we all walked towards a huge glass door that slid open by itself, and then we walked through it."Welcome boss!" The ladies present on the floor greeted respectfully, and Don Thierr
Lilith POV"I think that blonde-haired girl has something inside her hair." I quickly answered, pointing to a particular girl who was busy accompanying one of the guys replacing the guns.When Don Thierry was away, I noticed the girl working in and picking up something like a thin tube having a type of white power substance, without the knowledge of the men in the room.But unfortunately for her, I noticed it and saw her quickly sipping it into her hair."Good!" He said this before approaching the blonde-haired girl. "Excuse me!" He called for the girl."Yes sir!" The girl responded with a coy smile before carefully moving closer to Thierry."Remove that net from your hair," he ordered, causing the girl to leap back with her eyes wide open.She was about to turn away and run, but Thierry reacted quickly and grabbed her elbow, causing her to wince in pain.Please, sir, forgive me!" She pleaded with a shaking voice, and the next thing she knew, she fell to the ground dead!"Another thie
Lilith POV I blink my eyes multiple times due to how surprised and confused I was when Don Thierry held my body so close to his; if not for the cozy atmosphere, I would have been choked to death by his actions."I'm fine, sir; it's just a little fall." I informed immediately when I heard his chest rising and falling faster."Is he scared or worried for me? Why?" This question kept popping in and out of my head.He released me, and he turned serious. "I know, but be careful; you haven't worked the money we used to purchase you, so don't think of dying." He stated.Immediately after I heard those words from him, I felt my heart and hopes shred into pieces. "I guess I was expecting too much from him; what was I even thinking? That a person like him could ever care for me? Oh Lilith.""Am I communicating?" He barked, and I shrieked in fear before responding,"Yes, sir!""Good!" With that said, he stood up from her before she walked away from my room.I breathe out, feeling frustrated. "
Lilith POVONE WEEK LATER...Lilly, hurry up!" Flora screamed at me as she dragged my travel trunk away while I was trying to keep up with her steps from behind."Goodness! Can't you slow down a bit?" I complained immediately and managed to catch up to her.She hissed at me after shaking her head. She put our luggage into the bus boot before we hopped into the bus.Jahi, Precioux, and Kilian were already seated inside, so immediately we got inside, the bus driver started the bus, and he began to drive us to the contest destination.FIVE OURS LATER.After a long ride, we got off the bus and walked into a large hotel.Flora walked forward to the receptionist's counter. "Good morning, Miss; we are the contestants of the vipers." She said it with a smile.Oh, you are all welcome to the global hotel and event center; please have your pass card." She stated this before handing the card to Flora."You will find your suite on the thirteenth floor." She informed me with a professional smile.A
Lilith POV"I will slice off your throat and feed it to the vultures!" I replied in my head, fuming in anger for putting me in a sad mood earlier."Miss Lilith?" The man called at me, and I jerked up from my thoughts."I'm so sorry. I will first appreciate my supporters for their support; I will distribute the prizes I won to the less fortunate; and lastly, I will serve the people with my whole heart." I answered with an unsteady voice because I have lost the confidence I once had."Alright, Miss Lilith, thank you for your time. We would go through your answers while you wait in the hall for the results, please." The middle-aged man announced, and I smiled sadly at them before standing up from my seat."Damn!" I facepalmed myself immediately. I got outside, and my chest was rising and falling at a rapid pace, making my breath move slightly slower than usual.MINUTES LATER......We all saw the woman named Bianca Cowwells walk onto the stage again with a professional smile on her face.
Author POV After the exchange of pleasantries, the young man offered a seat for Flora, and she quickly sat down with a smile. She tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear before saying, "I'm Flora Vipers, and you?""Liam Axford," he said to her with a smile."Wow, nice name; it seems you are quite a visitor here." She started a conversation. "Oh! Not really darling." Liam replied to her, making Flora blush at the mention of the word 'darling.""I actually came here to attend a friend's party tonight; it's just that it will be hosted in this hotel, so I had to lounge." He explained it to her. "Nice!" Flora nodded her head; she was still brainstorming how to keep the conversation going."Do you want to attend? I'm sure it's really going to be fun?" He proposed to her with a charming smile. "Really!" She muttered something out, feeling delighted to get such a request.Liam nodded at her before keeping on his cutlery and then began to eat the food that had been served. They kept th
