Emily’s POV—
Time was running out! It was now two hours past the time the school got over and Leona was nowhere to be found! I ran towards the park as fast as my weak legs could go! I have looked for her everywhere in the classrooms, library and bathrooms!! Leona was not in the school building, at least not when I searched! When I reached the park, I found it empty! It was already getting dark and all the kids have left long back!
I looked around for Leona as I screamed her name!
“Leona!! Leona!!”
I kept looking around and shouting until my voice cracked and no sound came out of my throat! Her name was now coming out in whispers and I was feeling so tired! Tears rolled down my eyes as I had no idea where my Leona was or how was I supposed to find her!!
‘Could it be that someone kidnapped her??’ a chill ran down my spins at the thought and I started feeling dizzy!! I was on the point of fainting when
Narrator’s POV— As soon as Adrian reached the car, James opened the door of the back seat. Adrian carefully placed Leona in the car. “Emily! Get inside.” He ordered in a serious voice. He was definitely worried but spoke with his usual rudeness! Emily didn’t mind because she was too pressurised by the situation and her own condition! She got inside the car and only then did she realise that she was so blindly and desperately running here and there that she was not only exhausted but her legs were full of cuts and blisters! Emily didn’t even realise when her shoes were torn and one out of the pair was even missing! She felt even more exhausted after Leona was found. Generally Emily is quite fragile and even considered to be quite delicate not only by heart but also physically! After the incident when she fainted in the bathroom and then at night she remembered most of her past, Emily has been under constant pressure, be it because of seein
Narrator’s POV—“Hey Sis! Guess what happened today?” Melissa was watching a movie in her room when her mobile started ringing. She was initially irritated when she was disturbed by the ringing of the mobile but when she saw her elder sister’s name flashing on the screen, she became very excited!! She wanted to give her sister the good news about the task Elise gave her to accomplish and then she will be rewarded 500$ by her!“Melissa?? Was it you who locked Leona in the generator room?” Elise asked in a low whisper so that no one could hear her!“Of Course it was me! Who else?? Now come back and give me my reward!” Melissa said taking pride in her job.“Shut up and answer me first, Mel!” Elise hushed her and asked, “Did she see you? or anyone else?”“No. But my two other friends Renee and Neilee are my accomplishes. They helped me in this!” Meli
Narrator’s POV— After seeing the Walkers out of the mansion, Jason Ford walked back hurriedly inside and found Adrian sitting on the sofa, lost in deep thoughts! Jason also saw Dr Doyle leaving almost at the same time when the Walkers left. Jason walked to his son and asked in a worried tone, “Adrian! Where is Leona? How is she?” Adrian looked at his father a bit absent minded and after taking a deep sigh he said, “She is fine! She is sleeping in her room!” “Ok. I will go and check on her!” Jason said and turned to leave! “Wait Dad!” Adrian stood up and said in an urgent and loud voice. Jason has never heard Adrian speak so confidently to him! Usually he has been always fooling around and feared his Dad! Infact, Jason wanted him to grow responsible! Jason turned his head and looked at Adrian narrowing his eyes. “What happened? Is there anything else that you want to say?” “No. The doctor has given her some sedati
Narrator’s POV—Just when Linda was about to dial the Ford Mansion, she saw an incoming call on her mobile and it was from the Ford Mansion! It made her worry more! She immediately received the call.“Hello?” Linda spoke in a concerned voice.“May I speak to Emily’s mother Mrs Sella Miller? I am Diana Ford calling from the Ford Mansion!” Mrs Diana spoke in her usual calm and poised manner.“Good Evening Mrs Ford. I am Linda Anderson, Emily’s friend. Is everything alright?” Linda asked gasping.“Oh Ms Anderson? I guess we have spoken before once! Everything is fine Ms Anderson. It is just that my granddaughter Ms Leona is not well and Emily might have to stay back tonight to attend her. I wished to inform her mother so that she doesn’t worry! Can you inform Mrs Sella about this? If it is not a problem, I would like Emily to stay with Leona tonight and don’t w
Narrator’s POV—Knock! Knock!After a couple of minutes Adrian heard a soft knock on the door. It must be one of the maids but if he answered the knock loudly, he was afraid that both Emily and Leona might wake up from their sleep! He tried to quietly slip out of Emily’s embrace, but as he tried to remove Emily’s arm that wrapped his torso like a python snake, the tighter Emily hugged him and moaned in a soft voice, “Edward!”Her sleepy voice sounded very seductive and alluring. Adrian was a playboy and Emily was an extremely beautiful and attractive female! Her moans and touch made Adrian feel hot and hard!He took in deep breathes to control his wild urges!“Master Adrian!!”KNOCK!! KNOCK!!!!There were again several knocks and Adrian could hear Mrs Gomz voice from outside. Meanwhile due to the noise Emily stirred up a little more and at the same time, Leona too snu
Narrator’s POV—Jason frowned and clutching his fingers into tight fists he took a step back. He said in a grave voice, “We will have a discussion about this in private Adrian! Now you should come down for dinner. I and your Grams are waiting!”Meanwhile in this chaos, Mrs Diana has come upstairs to her granddaughter’s room and also Leona who was in deep sleep has woken up!“Dad!! Why are you scolding Nessa?”Leona sat up on the bed and asked in a confused and groggy voice! But soon her voice became soft seeing Emily standing at a corner scared of Jason and Leona started to sob! “Emily!! Nesssaa!!”On hearing Leona’s worried sobs, Emily forgot the world around and even the people standing there. She ran by Leona’s side and pulled her into a comforting hug! “Yes honey? I am right here. Everything is alright baby!”Everyone around was stunned seeing Emi
Narrator’s POV—Emily felt good for being able to take care of Leona! For the majority of her life she has lived alone with her mother, though Linda was there but only as a friend and that too they spent time earlier only for a few hours. Only recently they have started to live together in Odessa. But despite the love from her mother and her best friend Linda, Emily always felt a hollow in her chest, remembering the baby she has lost when she was Clara!For others it might seem like a story but for Emily the memories were no more just flashes but those were as vivid as her recent life! She could feel the pain as raw as recent and same could be said for her love and her losses!When she took care of Leona she felt just like a mother showering her love to her lost baby! She made the bed for Leona, combed and braided her hairs and then fed her medicines given by Dr Dylan. She also heated some milk and gave her a glass.“Now, d
Narrator’s POV—Emily and Adrian sat at the administrator office together. The administrator, Mr Michael was sweating already seeing Mr Adrian William Ford sitting at his office.“I am pretty shocked myself Mr Adrian Sir… I think it was just a prank by some other kids and they might have not realised it! Why don’t we do something….like let Ms Leona relax at home for as long as she wants and I will handle the attendance part? I can even arrange for scholarship…err…. I mean assistance on her study under scholarship program. I didn’t really mean scholarship which you can always arrange since……..” Mr Michael wiped his forehead with his handkerchief and continued, “Since Royal High is already owned by you…Sir…but I can arrange special classes and teacher’s assistance sir…I mean…” Mr Michael kept sweating profusely and drank a glass full o
