Glamour's POV
***I didn't know I had been able to fall asleep as my current situation, doesn't seem to be one that would allow a normal person to fall asleep. But I did, and when I woke up it was from a nightmare.I was been strangled by a face I couldn't recognize and it felt so real.I woke up terrified by the nightmare as it felt so real but when I sat up and looked around me I realized my present situation is far more terrifying than any nightmare one might ever have.I was still on the sofa where I had lied down last night, I reached my hands in my joggers to check if my gun was still there, I heaved a sigh of relief as I felt it was still there...I stood up went into the bathroom for a quick shower as I could not sit on the sofa and feel sorry for my life.In the shower, I tried to think of perfect ways to kill Mr husband one that wouldn't be a complete failure, because if I failed I and my whole family would be dead, or maybe he'd let me live to face the horrors and pain of losing all the people you love.I stayed in the shower longer than I should but I was still unable to come up with a plan. I knew I shouldn't kill him while we are here though, because then I might be stuck here as I don't have my passport with me.But then I could call home for a rescue I thought, and that reminds me of the fact that I hadn't seen my phone in my bag."shit how could I have not noticed that earlier" I spluttered "Maya must have forgotten" Even my purse was not in my box of clothes which meant I was stranded in a foreign country with no means of contact, no means of return if Mr husband chooses to leave me here, and no identification.I reluctantly got out of the shower and got dressed in the bathroom, and hid my gun in my box, before walking back out.The sitting room was empty, and I was beginning to feel hungry as I couldn't remember the last time I ate a full course meal.I went in search of the kitchen hoping to get something to eat even a cereal would do for now.I opened all the closed doors and found the kitchen but it was completely empty. No kitchen wares and no food or anything one could cook and not even a cereal were available.Was he for real, how can someone live without food, or does he always order takeouts? I asked myself, perplexed by this.My tummy made a loud rumble that I got scared he might hear me. I know some people might think it's weird that I could even think about eating in my situation, but I need to eat to live and I need to live to be able to kill Mr husband.Even the fridge was empty except for a few bottles of water.Grabbing a bottle of water, I went back into the sitting room and sipping water like I was drinking wine. I thought of how I'm going to survive without food and I know I couldn't so I decide to go ask Mr husband to go get food as he is supposed to be responsible for my feeding and well-being and if he wasn't cut out for that, then he shouldn't have married me.I was already climbing up the stairs with a furious face when I heard a ring of the doorbell. I wanted to ignore it but then I thought that could be a food delivery maybe he ordered for breakfast so I rushed back down the stairs and opened the door.A guy stood there with a bunch groceries bags and said he was asked to get this, I then stepped aside and allowed him to enter he went directly into the kitchen and kept them on the floor in the kitchen.He then asked where Mr. husband was and I told him he's probably upstairs as I haven't seen or heard any of his movement since I woke up, but I didn't tell him about that though.I think the guy who brought the stuff is probably his friend because he didn't address him as sir or Mr he addressed him as Dharl.I heard him go upstairs, so I went directly to the bags and started to ransack through them to see if there's anything eatable.There were a few boxes of cereal and cartons of milk and a few more things inside. I took out the milk and cereal which happens to be my favorite cereal. I then took a bowl from the kitchen shelf and went back to sit on one of the sofas.I poured the milk into the bowl and then added the cereals but I had forgotten to get a spoon and I had to go back to the kitchen.When I was about to get out of the kitchen after getting a spoon, I heard footsteps coming down the stairs, and I was about to stay back but then I asked myself why I needed to hide away from him when it's not like I had committed any sin.I walked out of the kitchen with my lips set in a straight thin line and went to eat my cereal.I saw both of them go out the door without turning to look at me, which was great because I wasn't looking forward to meeting his gaze.When I ate my cereal, I felt like something was missing, and then I instantly remembered it was my phone as I couldn't eat without pressing my phone but I don't have that with me now and it's all Maya's fault I've come to learn the hard way that your friends would take you to hell.In my own case personal hell on earth. I've never imagined staying 24 hours without a mobile phone and right now the thought of it made me pessimistic.I don't even know what time is it as I finished my cereal. I kept the plate on the floor but then remembered how my mom would always nag me for not tidying up after eating, even though we had house helps, she would always insist we tidy our plates on our own after eating...I got up and picked up the plate before taking it to the kitchen and I didn't know when tears started to fall from my eyes.Never in my life have I ever imagined missing my mom this much and not been able to at least call her...I sat on the floor of the kitchen and cried more than I had done in the past two weeks. I didn't know how long I cried for, but when I stopped crying, I decided that I can't do this anymore I don't think I can wait until we leave to kill him anymore, and that's when I thought of the perfect plan to get rid of him quicker.Glamour's POV#previously**"Hey, you need to come over early tomorrow, or I would come pick you up, I saw a few things we need to get," I said without pausing, or waiting for her to say anything, and when I finished blabbering all that, I waited for her to say something but the line was silent."Wait was I talking all by myself, " I said confusingly and moved the phone away from my ear to check again but then my eyes widened the moment I saw the number, and it definitely did not belong to Maya.***Even though it was a strange number, I had a strong feeling that I know who that number belonged to even before I heard the persons voice.I knew it was definitely Mr husband; the person I least expected to receive a call from after the conversations we had only a few hours ago.I'm definitely not having this, I thought to myself and then decided to end the call, but his voice stopped me mid-action."Don't end the call," he said, and of course it was him the douche bag. His words made me f
Third person POV..."I was dead, I thought that was the end of my immortality," Larry said fear evident in his voice.Darlh only looked at him without saying a word, he only tried to check and understand what had changed about him but everything looks normal so he decided to ask him."What do you think changed about you," Darhl asked and Larry thought about it for a while before saying."Nothing changed really except for this," Larry said pointing to only changes he noticed...****Larry had raised his shirt up slightly, pointing at the only change he had noticed.Dharl looked at him like he was crazy or something because he couldn't see anything where Larry was pointing."Are you sure it's not your head that's messed up?" Dharl said calmly and went over to sit on the only sofa that was present in the room.The whole room was painted in burgundy, the comforter was blood-red, the huge curtains;which were all let down, were also blood red, and the only thing that wasn't red was the sofa
Hamdi and I sat in his room, playing PS5 games for hours, completely unaware of how much time had passed. It felt just like the old days, back when everything was still normal.I didn’t end up smacking Hamdi on the head like I had planned when I walked in. As soon as I saw him playing games, I forgot all about it. I’m a sucker for video games, so any irritation I felt faded away the moment I saw the screen.We kept playing, sometimes I won, other times Hamdi did, and the back-and-forth continued until it was time for him to go pray. Hamdi had an alarm set on his phone for each prayer time, since there weren’t any masjids nearby. The app he had would vocalize the Adhan (call to prayer) when it was time, and this time it was for Maghrib, the prayer after sunset.He put down his game controller, got up, and stretched, his shirt rising a little. “It’s time for Maghrib. I’m going to pray,” he said, before heading to his bathroom to perform ablution. I knew he’d be heading to the prayer roo
Third person's POVDarhl drove over to the house that was filled with other vampires and only one fox which was Dale.When he walked in, everyone turned to greet him as he walked down the hallways that lead to the meeting room in that house.The house from the outside was a five story building with a penthouse.Inside the lobby, a guy who was supposed to be the receptionist stood behind a counter dressed in a black tuxedo.He bowed at Darhl the moment he walked in, and also the people seated at the lobby stood up to greet Dahrl before sitting back down.The lobby was set like a five-star cafeteria with seats set around a round table.There were three sofas around each table, and there were about fifteen sets of tables in the place because of how big it was.The elevator was located at the wall after the desk of the receptionist, so Dahrl went directly to it and entered. He then pressed the p floor which was where the meeting room was.The moment he walked out of the elevator and into
Third persons POV.."You know you can't escape your fate forever right, even if you keep choosing to ignore it, it would find you... Actually I think it already did,"...The words of the Dieza witches queen kept repeating in Darhl's head even though he tried his best to not be bothered about what she said, but trying not to think about it only lead him to think about it even more.He couldn't help but wonder what she meant by actually it already found him.He didn't understand why she said that, but he also tried to push out the thoughts claiming she might probably only be trying to get into his head because the Dieza queen was known for her manipulative acts.Getting out of the throne room wasn't as hard as it was when he was trying to get in, he only had to go through one tunnel.The fairies outside were still there and they bowed at Darhl's retreating form.By the time Darhl was completely out of the old building, it was already night, which meant he spent hours in there without kn
Glamour's POVI and Maya went to the mall to buy a few things we were going to use for decoration, and I was so excited.The feeling of doing something you really love doing just kinda hits differently than any other feeling in this world.Even though we didn't write any list of the things we were going to need, we were still able to buy the few basic things needed for decoration.While we were shopping, I decided not to think of my life's situation and how angry I was just a couple of minutes ago.The idea of starting to decorate the whole house made me really excited, even though I know how much of my time it was going to take, I was still super excited, and not the thought of Darhl or anyone would be able to get rid of that excitement.After picking up a few things, I asked maya to drive us over to a phone shop so I could get a new phone as I do not have anyone currently, because I shattered the one I was using just a few hours ago.At the phone shop, I got a Samsung phone, the lat
