CHAPTER 73 HAZEL'S POV; It was time for me to step out of my room. I was so nervous that my hand shook. I hid it from the girls. I didn't want them to start asking questions. I had no answer to looking at me with pity in their eyes. They thought I was having the time of my life here and they also thought tonight was a night I looked forward to but no. That wasn't the case. If I would be nervous for a normal party, tonight, it doubled because it was Cherry's party. Anything could happen. She hated me with her guts. Before she went into another coma, I thought she had finally come to accept me as one of them. Heck, she had even apologized to me and finally, I was feeling like I could be part of them even though Onyx was used to giving me mixed signals. I haven't seen her since she was awake and even now, I wasn't ready to. I closed my eyes and heaved a deep breath. "Hazel?" I turned to see Yara standing by the door. She was looking at me in confu
CHAPTER 75 ONYX'S POV: I heard the crash and I turned to see that Hazel was at the center of it all. Closing my eyes, I sighed. She never does anything right. "Who's she?" Yvonne asked. I looked at her and remembered that I hadn't really told her about my mate. Now wasn't the time either. "Someone you don't know. I have to go and make sure everything is alright," "I'll come with you," She said but I was already gone. As I weaved through the crowd, I found Cherry standing close to the scene of the incident and I knew I had to stop her before she embarrassed Hazel. She was my Luna and almost everyone in this room knew about it. I didn't like being the talk of the town. On getting to the scene, I saw Hazel hunched over. The whole place had been cleaned up but she was still on the floor, head bent low to the ground and before she could grab Hazel by the hair, Earl grabbed her by the arm and pulled her behind him. I immediately rushed to Hazel and l
ONYX'S POV; I went back to the party. Everyone had gone back to partying like a scene hadn't just happened. Cherry was standing with her friends and I walked towards where she stood, talking and laughing like she hadn't just ruined someone's night by humiliating them. On getting to where she stood, I tapped her, ignoring her friends that were smiling at me. I didn't like them. Bunch of spoilt kids who had no manners. Cherry turned to look at me and her laugh faded into a frown. "You're here to scold me, huh?" "I do not have the time to talk about that with you now. Follow me, we need to talk," "Talk about what, huh?" She asked as she placed her hand on her hip. "If you're going to make a scene here, I could end this party and send you up to your room since you don't know your place," She scoffed but she followed after me anyway. When we got to the terrace, I stopped and turned to cast her a stern glare. "You do not have a single respect for yours
SELAH'S POV; I was still seated in the car, waiting for my mother to return when I saw a car driving out of the gates. I frowned and immediately turned off the headlights to conceal the car from being seen. Who was going out of the palace by this time? I checked the time in the glove compartment area to see that it was just eleven. The party had barely started. Well, I recline my seat, laying low for s while and hoping that I could hide away without being seen. Just then, the car stopped and I felt my body get tense. What if it was one of the guards? If they saw me, I was doomed. The sound of a car door opening and shutting had me rushing towards the glove compartment and pulling it open as I frantically searched for the bottle of elixir glitter my mother had used on her face. She said it usually lasted for up to six hours before wearing off but I didn't care. Just then, I heard a loud knock on the window of the car. It was so raspy and I could read t
CHAPTER 78 HAZEL'S POV; My eyes cracked open and I was welcomed into another wave of darkness. I felt my body on a wet, cold floor and when I sat up, I felt water drip down the side of my arm. I winced in irritation and tried to wipe the goo off my arm. That was when I realized that I was bound. In panic, I tried to part my hands but it was strongly held together by chains that clinked as I tried to free myself. I immediately felt panic. My breathing increased rapidly and I felt goosebumps rise on my skin. What exactly had happened? Had I done something to annoy Onyx? He probably asked the guards to throw me into the dungeon. Suddenly, I felt a very sharp pain at the side of my head. I closed my eyes and turned my head to the side as I groaned in pain. I was having a headache. A very intense headache. Even with the headache, I tried to remember how things had ended last night. I remembered bumping into one of the maids sharing drinks and spilling it on
ONYX'S POV: I stayed awake all night and now, it was dawn and there was no news of her whereabouts. I was extremely worried and my body told me I was no matter how I tried to deny it. Last night, I had reflected on a lot of things especially what my father had said. I brought this upon myself. I hadn't listened to their warning and even the stories they told me about Selah's mother. I thought she was different. I thought she would notice those vices and change but she had held onto it. She had decided to work with her mother. I closed my eyes and sighed. Cherry knew I was angry and she hadn't bothered to come to my study. She knew what my reaction would be as she was the partial cause of all these. If she hadn't humiliated Hazel, maybe she wouldn't have gone up to her room in hurt and angry. Earl and Theresa were really worried. Even Nykon had asked about her. Last night, I had asked that everywhere be sealed so we could check if everyone was around as
CHAPTER 80 SELAH'S POV; The whole plan had gone so well that at that point, I thought I was in a dream. But this was reality. It was happening for real. My mother had helped in kidnapping the bane of my existence and the stumbling block to my glory. Tuchel had suggested taking her to his hideout before he was caught and was sentenced to prison while telling us that we were making him go back to his vomit. Well, it didn't matter because we had paid him for it. Even better than he had been able to rob collectively and I knew that there was no way he could turn our offer down. I mean, it was five grand. Not anyone could get it at a go. Well, except for Stella whom I had given Ten grands. She hasn't been executed yet and I wonder what she's experiencing behind closed doors. We were in a small warehouse that had probably been used years ago to store things. Well, Tuchel had bought it at a really low price and turned it to his hideout. This place wa
CHAPTER 81 HAZEL'S POV; I was crouched over, sobbing and shivering. I didn't know what was going to happen to me but I knew it was going to be more terrible than I had ever experienced. Onyx had never for once taken advantage of me sexually and now, this man was telling Selah and the woman who looked exactly like her that he wanted me. That alone was able to make me squish myself into a ball, shivering and clattering my teeth as they left. I heard the sound of a belt opening up and my heart began to race. I wasn't built for all these. I had managed to endure the maltreatment I had gotten from Onyx and his sister only to face this from the woman he used to be in love with in the past. Immediately, my eyes flew open and that was when I saw that he was half naked from below. He was an old man and it showed in the white, wiry hairs of his manhood area. I had never felt so irritated in my life as I watched him draw close to me with his erection so obvious for
