Kimberly POV
I opened my eyes slowly due to the sharp light and cringed when I felt water being splashed won my face being what had woken me up.“Waky way, sleepyhead” I coughed and tried to hide away my face. I noticed my cell has been changed. Yeah, I call it cell because since the day I got here, I haven't been able to do anything apart from sleep, wake up, shout my voice out for help, cussed at, and then given crumbs as a meal.I was looking like a bag of bone now and I don't even know the time or what day it is. I thought by now someone would come for me but it seems the more I hope the more my hope would be crushed so I have given up.It was dark now I can tell because of the darkness in the room and the brightness of the light.“You know I thought with all your easier wild mouth that you would be a big challenge but just like the great of those miserable omega's you suck!” she chuckled my hazy yes taking in her new changed appaMy head snapped to him so fast I feared it would stick to that position.I don't know how to feel at seeing him. whether to be happy that he is here to save me or be angry at what he did.“I'm so sorry for everything, Kittie. I'm so sorry I put you through this” he said pacing to me with a creased face.I bit into my cheek and stood from the bed, my mind beginning to melt as I saw how lean he suddenly looked. Has he been so worried about me? He doesn't look like he had slept a wink.Many thoughts were racing through my mind and that wasn't what I was proud of. I'm supposed to be strong and resist him. He hurt me and I wasn't going to let him get under my skin.“I want a divorce” I spat out the words before would hold myself.He paused, coming closer as if not believing whey he heard from afar.“What did you say?” he asked me.I stood my ground and back off not wanting him to come any close “I said I wa
It's been a week since I came back, and our fight, Leonard and I. I got a new phone which I didn't know where it came from by the way. I had come in from the bathroom and seen it sitting on the bed after I had called in the entrance from the bathroom to someone who I thought was Jewel.After getting the phone, I had tried calling my Mom and she told me she was sorry she couldn't make it the last time someone came I pick her due to work, but promised she was coming with the person the next week. From the way she said it, it seem the person was still in Chicago waiting to bring her.I was blank and felt empty. Since the day following the quarrel that my friends had come and I had quarreled with them, I had avoided them like plagues. If they knocked and I heard their voices from the room, I will pretend to be asleep just to make sure I don't have any conversation with them.I missed him so much ___Leonard. But in the midst of missing him, I told myself I want going to fa
Kimberly POVThe days flitted by hazily with Jewel coming in to read to me in most days while I took a walk through the house or outside in other days trying bee hard to avoid the outside and hoping no one senses me or sees me.I won't fib but I kind of wish I could meet Leonard in one of my outings or returned to see him in the room begging me to take him back. With how empty I was feeling, I would have swept into his arms and forgiven him instantly.The days are running and so are the months. Christmas is almost upon us and very soon this year would be gone bringing into the sky the next year. I couldn't help but fear. What if that guy was saying the fact that I would die soon?The day before yesterday I really thought about it. He might be saying the truth. I wished I could go and see the priestess and ask her if she would know about it but after what happened the last time I was away by myself, I couldn't take the risk. I sat in my bed with the novel Jewel re
After spending the day with Garret I must say I was opened yet to another round of mysteries especially the reason surrounding my kidnap by that weasly fellow. She did tell me what she was going to do but I at least managed to beg her to stay away from the girl at least until I have been able to speak to Leonard who I made up my mind I was going to forgive.While I walked to my room had been chanting a mantra which I was using to convince myself that he wouldn't intentionally hurt me. I promised myself to be more reasonable when I got to the room and really think about it.I paced around me the room, configuring how I was going to do it__Talk to him. I couldn't go to the arena alone to see him, due to the distance, which meant I have to go and ask Nora to take me there. What if I meet him with Belinda? What if she had managed to swindle him into making her his Luna instead of me. She was witty and shrewd I must give her that and just like before I had taken a decision with
Kimberly POV“Are you okay?”I nodded my head frantically. What if I tell her about my parent and she kicks me out as being the daughter of the enemy? They would definitely still think my mother a cursed human and now her daughter the Luna?She dropped her cup loudly on the table “You are the daughter of Latoya?” She asked making me nearly fall in dismay and awe. How did she? Oh, my God.“You are the daughter of, oh the goddess, forgive me. No wonder you hate me. You must have heard everything” she rushed out in amazement.I shook my head “I don't hate you at all. I totally understand everything that happened in the past” I said sliding off the couch to meet her.She was looking at me now like I have two heads “Oh, okay.” she said worrying my head.I sat back in my seat and took my coffee this time hoping she doesn't release any other bomb on me.“How long have you been married
After I left her presence, still floating in an air of disbelief at her warm reception, I practically danced in jubilation to Sandy’s room. I stopped and did a quick prayer not to meet with her husband instead of her.I knocked and waited. The door flung open and Sandy appeared looking like she was about to lash out at the caller but paled when she saw me, her face bearing a blank expression. I was still striving to determine how to react when she flung herself at me.“I'm so sorry, Kim. I swear I will never fight with you again. Do whatever you want to me but please do not give me the silent treatment. I thought I was gonna die if you don't talk to me again”Tears gathered in my eyes. Why was everyone using the same line on me? I wiped my eyes and sniffed a smile creeping up on my face “ I missed you too.” I said genuinely my hands wrapping sound her dainty form.She was still holding me, when I saw someone appear at her back. I loo
The next morning as I woke up I was enthused. The truth is that I didn't sleep properly last night after sleeping late thinking of how it was hung to that meaning when I saw him.I rehearsed so many things I was going to tell him among which I hoped he would forgive my selfishness and forgive me too. He wasn't perfect and has hurt me but for reasons beyond me, I just wanted to talk to him.I took my bath before I would come out Jewel was already inside helping me sort out my dresses.“Morning, Luna” she greeted. “hope you slept well? How was yesterday?” she went on without giving me a chance to answer her greeting.So impatient!I was practically on-air with happiness though and was willing to answer her “Went very well. She wasn't as I had intended she would be. Very hospitable. We became can't friends”She stopped in the middle of what she was doing and came closer. Itching for gossip I can tell “You mean she
Just before I get my bearing, Nora was already banging her hand in the door. She said he usually locks it from the inside since it was lonely out here and he was the only one around.The door didn't take long to rattle before it swung open with no one at the other end.“He controls it from the inside. Come on stop looking like a lost mouse. When this is over, you owe me a good treat don't forget that”We went in the door banging behind us “Brother!”“Nora would you be so kind as to tone down your voice, it's still early and I still need to sleep. I didn't sleep last night and I was a bit drunk”The voice was coming from an intercom, making me want to fling myself across the room to wherever it's coming from to entrap its owner in a bear hug. I miss him so much. He was drunk? Oh, my God.“Why were you drunk?” Nora asked having a mischievous smirk on and when I tried to stop her she gave me a signal to shut
