ZIVA
Suddenly, the van opened and bright lights flashed into the van, almost blinding my eyes. I had to cover my eyes with my hand, then the light was diverted.As soon as the light was diverted, I positioned my hands into fighting fists, as I was prepared to punch or smack anyone who tried to attack.Squinting my eyes through the light, I spotted the same guards who dragged me into the van earlier. They stood before me with their bright flashlights turned on.Hastily, they approached me with their black boots making heavy sounds.Dragging me by my arms, the men took me away from the van. Meanwhile, I screamed. I didn't want to go to the Den, so I kicked my legs and shouted, “Help! I'm being kidnapped!”I lied. Well, it was the best option I had in order to get help and have someone take me away from here.“Tsk, did you even look at your suZIVAThat should be what he meant. I and Alpha Xander’s wedding night should have been our consummation night, and as his woman, I should have his scent or aura on my body. However, we were not involved, so there is no sign of his claim on me.The same man stretched his neck, gazing down at my neck. “You are not even marked,” he spoke, “Your lies are pathetic, little girl...”“No, no. I'm telling the truth,” I protested, though I could feel tears rolling down my cheeks uncontrollably.“Little girl, don't cry,” he spoke gently, reaching out to touch my face. I jerked away from his hand, not wanting him to touch me, but he pulled me close.With his hand caressing my wet cheeks, he uttered softly, “I am their leader, so you can stay with me tonight.”The other men giggled at his statement, while my heart squeezed. I knew what they were capable of, maltreating
ZIVATo be honest, I had expected the Big Boss or whoever else they said I was given to to come in through the door, because I thought I was alone in the room. But I guess I was wrong, and the room was filled with some women.As the curtains slid open, a few bare bodies were revealed. Two women... Four women were on the large bed with no clothes to cover their bodies. They were all caressing the man in their middle. I had to look closely to see who it was.My gaze fell on a fat bald man, he was triple the size of me. The women continued to caress him and chuckle like he was gold, including the woman I met earlier. The man also seemed to be pleased with their actions.He turned his face, and his gaze landed on me. Upon seeing me, his eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on his face.“Leave now, we have a new member.” He ordered. Instantly, the women left his sides. The
ZIVAWith the bald man’s statement, my eyes widened as fear gripped me. Did I gulp that black liquid? “Now, look at that. You drank it in a go,” the man spoke in a mocking manner, confirming my doubts. He forced the drink into my mouth, while I was gasping for breath, and I foolishly gulped it. My heart raced. He mentioned that he mixed something into the drink. Gosh! It is not just an ordinary drink, or alcohol then. I took a step away from the man, and my legs wobbled, like they were exhausted. That is strange.My legs never feel wobbly even after I worked tirelessly back then.“No worries, I will help you,” I heard the man utter. I raised my gaze to look at his ugly face, but when I did, his face doubled... Or maybe tripled or quadrupled. I'm confused!!!The bald man’s hand hit my shoulder and I fell
XANDERThe taste of the whiskey was bitter and the alcohol in it gave a warm and tingling sensation on my tongue. As I sipped the whiskey, the anger seemed to leave my body. Peace enveloped me as I sipped, causing me to focus on the present moment.I heard the sound of the heavy wooden door opening, the hinges creaking as the door slowly swung open. My ears perked up, and I turned to see who had entered the bar. Lance walked in, his eyes blinking rapidly as they adjusted to the dim light of the bar. I watched him survey the room, his gaze finally coming to rest on me. He approached the bar stool and sat down opposite me as his chair scraped against the wooden floor."Rough day?" he asked.I glanced up, ensuring that my expression was cold, just as the way I felt to his question. "Mind your business," I replied quickly, not caring if my tone was
XANDER“Is everything okay?” the driver asked, glancing at Ziva in the rear-view mirror.“Just keep driving,” I said firmly, and the driver obeyed, turning his attention back to the road.I leaned over and pressed the button that rolled down the passenger window, hoping that some fresh air would help Ziva feel better. Wind gushed into the car, and a sigh of relief let out from Ziva’s lips just as I expected. “Much better...” she uttered softly, her eyes closed and her head resting against the headrest. Then, I could analyze her properly. Her dress was unbuttoned, almost exposing her skin, so I told her.“Button up your dress,” I spoke, keeping my eyes fixed on the trees outside the window.“Done!” I heard her chuckle. I turned, facing her only to spot more buttons on her dress that were undone. With that, she chuckled like a baby.
XANDERI opened the drawer with a smooth glide, revealing the contents inside. Without wasting time, I picked up the syringe, needle, and the small bottle that accompanied it. Hastily, I inserted the needle into the bottle, and pulled back on the plunger, drawing the liquid in the bottle into the syringe.I inserted the needle into the vein in my arm, and pushed the plunger.As soon as I injected the liquid into my vein, my hands became weak. I dropped the syringe involuntarily, and slumped, with darkness creeping at the edges of my eyes.“Finally taking a break from pack works, uh? I guess Mr. Workaholic decided to have some time for himself.” Lance mind-linked.“Shut it, it’s too early for this,” I replied, flickering my eyes open.“Early? it's late afternoon.” Lance mind-linked back.“Afterno
ZIVAThe Alpha is as cold as he has always been. But today was somewhat different. His eyes didn't speak anger this time, he seemed to be more worried than angry. I walked out of the dining hall, having eaten my food to my satisfaction.I reached the staircase, attempting to go to my room, and prepare for the guest Alpha Xander spoke about. As I took a step, about to ascend to my room, I heard a whisper from somewhere nearby. It was followed by a low chuckle, as if someone were trying to hold back their laughter.“Lady Ziva looked so cute!” the voice squealed again, this time even louder.“Shh!” another voice hissed with an annoyed tone. “Do you want everyone to hear you?”I moved back, turning toward the direction of the voices. Then, I realized that the owners of the voices were in a room. I crept closer to listen. Pressing myself against the
ZIVAI looked at Anji’s phone screen, wanting to see the pictures she talked about. Some pictures appeared on the screen, causing my jaw to drop at that moment.It was a picture of Alpha Xander carrying me in his arms. The picture swiped off and a new photo appeared on the screen, this time showing me lying on a bed, Alpha Xander's face hovering just above mine. We were both gazing at each other, and there was no sign of anger or coldness in his eyes while he was staring at me. His face spelled more of peaceful.I grabbed Anji’s phone from Anji and gazed at the huge amount of reactions the pictures had. The comment section alone was filled. It prompted my mind to read the comments and when I did, I only saw good comments. The comments were filled with admiration, but they also mentioned that they had never seen me among celebrities or billiona
