King Ate She is gone, finally. I can finally breathe freely. I open the drawer and took out Samantha's file. The file went back to the first time that she was picked up. There is nothing before that. I go to papers with the information about her master. He was a first-class asshole if I saw one. Samantha was only a payday for him. Before he found Samantha he lost his job and his wife in all one week. He lost everything. Then along came Samantha. He saw an opportunity to make some cash, even if it would take a long time. He told Samantha that he looked for her family. I have papers and pictures to prove otherwise. He went out and sat in a bar and left a small child to fend for herself at night. She got sick and he started to panic. He took her to a doctor and that is where he learned the truth. He and the doctor worked together to keep Samantha a secret. We found the money trail. Once Samantha was sold off, the doctor received fifty per cent. I feel the anger bubbling up inside

Samantha POV Jodie and I have been busy with my room for the past two days. After our shopping trip yesterday we decided to start with the walls first before the furniture arrives. We painted my walls white. It took us three coats to obscure the pink in my room. I don't understand how the hell anyone could want hot pink for their walls. The colour just made me shudder. I decided on a bohemian-style bedroom. I bought all my furniture in light brown. I have this vision in my head of what I want my room to look like. I just hope my vision and reality are the same. My father already assembled all the furniture, so it is up to me and Jodie to put the final touches on the room. We start with the canopy bed. First, we wrap the fairy lights on the four corners of the bed before we hang the material. We step back to see our handiwork. It looks like you are transported to a magical world when you look at the bed. The bedding that I bought is white with a brown blanket at the feet. My pillo

Samantha POV "Why can't you admit the truth to the both of us?" I ask walking up and down in front of him. "I am the king. If my enemies know that I have found my mate, they will use you to get to me." "Just stop lying to me," I screamed towards him. " You are lying through your teeth and you know it. Jade already told me that you do not want a mate, ever. So just stop lying please." I feel the tears running down my face. "I am not lying. What makes you think I am lying?" I can hear the anger in his voice. "You are lying." I ay in a small voice. " That might be a reason, but it is not the main reason. There is something going on here that you are not telling me." I look him straight in the eyes. I can see the shock on his face. "Let's sit down and then we can talk about this like the adults we are." He motioned towards the couch in his office. I sigh and went to sit down. He came to sit in the chair in front of me. He placed his head in his hands. "I wasn't always like this y

Ate Pov "I came home from one of my drinking binges. I have lost my job earlier in the week. When I got home, my wife was gone. She took the kids and left me. There were two letters on the table. The first was from my wife explaining why she left and that I should never contact her again. The other letter was from an anonymous person. It had a check-in for fifth thousand dollars. It stated that there was a little girl that I need to pick up and keep with me at all times. It told me where I could find her and what time. I went to the location. I found a little girl there crying. They told me that she was a dragon and what medicine I should give her. They told me that as long as I keep her hidden from the world, they would send me money. And they did. Each month I would receive a check for five thousand dollars. I used that money to pay for her school fees and everything else that she needed. It was hard since I could not go back to work and look after a child." "And you don't know who

Samantha POV I wake up in a dark room. I am trying to figure out what the hell is going on. The last I remember is seeing Jodie on the side of the road. She was sitting in her car. I stopped behind her. she was crying. I remember a blow to the head and then darkness. I feel my head and found something hard. It was blood that already dried. The wound is closed. What the hell was going on? Why did I wake up in a room I do not recognize? I look around and see that I was placed on a moldy and old mattress. There is no bed. There was nothing else in the room. Not even a place to go to the bathroom. The mattress is on the floor. I can feel the cold through the mattress. I don't know how long I have been here. There is a small window on the wall behind me. The last rays of light are filtering through the window. It must have been hours, since my stomach is growling. I try to get up and realized that my foot is in shackles. I try pulling on it, but it was no use. There is a sharp pain
