I held the door handle and twist it as the door clicked open
I stepped in and every where was very dark, I found the switch on the wall and I turned on the lights
Everywhere was painted with Red and black and only chairs were in the room
I sighed, maybe nothing is here anyway
I turned to leave but I noticed something
The wall has a hidden door, I noticed it cause my father once told me about it
I walked towards it and pushed it backwards and the wall opened revealing another room
Damn! I was right
I smiled as I walked towards the room and I couldn't believe what I saw
Different collection of golds, Silvers and Diamond
I touched them one after the other as I smiled, this is really worth a billon of dollars each
Damn, Zachery is very rich after all , if only he's not cold hearthed
I sighed as I continued walking around admiring each of Diamonds I see
Well each side has it owns collection , The Gold has its own and same as Silver and Diamonds
I walked towards the last Edge of the Diamonds still admiring it
But one of the diamonds catched my attention , it was separated from other Diamonds
And it was kept in a glass, I walked towards it and my heart almost reach my throat
That Diamond??
I was sure that was my father's diamond , the diamond he had asked me to protect but it went missing two days after his death
I can't be right?
I shook my head negatively ad hot tears filled my eyes
My father was was Miner and on one of his search he had seen the Diamond and refused the sell it out like he use to do
He said I should sell it only when I turn 25, But after his death it went missing
It can't be right? Zachery can't kill my father because of the Diamond right?
Keeping it separate means it was special admist others
Did he even force my mother to disown me because of the Diamond?
It can't be" I shake my head negatively
My father refused to give him the Diamond and he killed him, threaten my mother and then got wedded to me
He fucking did it!!
He killed my father! I cried the tears in my eyes and I noticed my leg felt heavy to me
I brought my hand closer to touch the glass but someone cleared his throat and I fall on the floor scared
Without being told I knew it was Zachery, I turned to him with goose pimples all over my body
"What are you doing here? He asked trowing the stick of the cigar in his hand away
Sweats were all over my body as I stared at him with almost hatred
He fucking did it!!
He killed my father and my only brother? For his own benfit
"What are you doing here!!? He yelled and i flinched
"I......I was......."
Good Lord what's happening
Am I going to end up like my father too? Because am Crazy?
"What did you remember? He asked staring at me non stop
"Nothing...Nothing I swear I see nothing'' I said tears not ceasing my eyes
The shock was too much for me
I hated him so much!
~
I woke up sweating as I noticed I was laying on the hard floor
I opened my eyes and realized I was the cell, God!!
I can't believe I fainted because of the shock
To think am leaving in the same house with my Father's killer tightened my heart
So did I offend?
The cell door opened and he stepped in
"I can see you are awake , Well whatever you see I won't want to hear this outside or you will end up like your........I mean like other mistress" he said avoiding my gaze
I nodded, I was extremely scared, what if he kills me too?
He was right, my days in his house is being numbered
He smirked and walked out as I began all over again with tears
"Fidra? She can help me! But no I can't risk her life"
Wait! Am in the cell??
How did I go with the Audition tomorrow??
Fuck!
The early morning sun shone on the face as I woke up stretching my body
I was feeling so cold, maybe because I slept on the hard floor
Gosh how can one be heartless? To think am leaving in the same house with my father's murdered always sent cold pimples over my body
Whatever it will take I will make sure I brought him to book and have revenge on my father's death
~
The cell door opened and Vida entered the cell carrying a tray of food
I scoff and took my eyes off her, it should be about 12 now and he is just ordering them to bring me food
"Mam here is your food" she said
"Am not hungry,even if I am I won't eat that" I scoff
"Ma,you have no other option okay? You just have to eat" she says
"Are you seriously lecturing me now? I said am not hungry" I mumbled and she sighed
"I will leave it here then,in case you need it" she says and walk out
~
I kept on counting the time with my mind as I didn't know what else to do
How do I go about with the audition? Fidra had already register my name
God, this is my chance to have some savings at least in case I needs to escape from Zachery
The cell open again and Vida walked in shaking her head
Well I think she will help
"Vida I need your help" I says
"What ma?
"Help me get out of here for just two hours please?
~
I stepped out of the cell dressed in Vida's clothes as I carried the tray of food out with my heads down to avoid the guards from seeing my face
I successfully reached my room and I stepped in a hurry and gathered the clothes, heel and my makeup things into a polythene bag used for depose then I closed my door and walked out
I hope this plan walks out for me
|| Zachery ||
"Are you done fishing out the person who took the Job?
"No boss,am still walking on it"
"Why? It's two days already,I want positive result before the end of today"
"Sure sir"
I ended the call and sighed then retype another number in my phone
"Execute Mr Marshall, I want him died,that's the pay he got for playing with me"
"Sure boss"
I ends the call and trow my phone on the bed then sighed
No one messes with me
The door opened and one of my guards entered the room
"What?
"Sir you need to see the Cell record, the camera captures this"
|| Vida ||
I stood up from the floor and walked into the little passage of the cell
Gosh I pray Ma Sera will be safe , If Sir Zachery found out about this then my done for good cause he will not just sarke me but will kill me
I brought out my little phone from my pocket, No from Ma Sera's dress
Well we switched dresses and she was able to leave the cell while acting as me
I placed a call on a number and it picked on the fifth ring
"Hello?" His voice rings
"Sir, am not sure she's safe,she had an audition but she ended up in the cell and........" He cuts me off
"In the cell? For what! He yelled
"I think she saw something she's not suppose to see" I whispers
"Damn! Must she be clumzy? Ste.......
"Vida" I corrected him
"Yeah Vida you have to protect her with all you have okay? This will soon be over" he said and I nodded
"I promise I will but you know it seems like she is........."
"What are you doing? I heard someone said behind me
I turned and my phone slipped off my hand
Damn I'm doomed.
I turned sharply in fear as my phone slipped off my handI sighed in relief when I saw it was just the cell guard"Vida ? What are you doing here?" He says"Shh!! I says as I used my palm to cover his mouth"Why are you here? I asked him"I was just asked to check up on you"he says and I nodded."What are you doing? He asks and I sighed then bent to pick up my phone"Ryan, Miss Sera is the one we were asked to protect"||Sera||I paid the cab man off as I rush into Fidra house , I just hope he haven't leaveI knocked on the door and her maid opened then smiled when she saw"Miss Sera? We miss you please come in" I nodded and entered the houseNothing had really change"Is she in? I asked referring to fidra"Yes ma" she bowed and I smile at her and walked towards fidra's roomI knocked on the door and she opened almost immediately"Oh Damn! Girl!!" She yelled hugging me
I break the kiss and moved back as I hit my back on one of the parked cars as I stared at him"Am sorry, I.....I didn't mean to".he said and turned sharply disappearing into the darkI couldn't think of what just happened but that hand, that blue eyes which shone in the night shadowI was sure he was the same man I meet at the super market.How did he find out it was me? Is he spying on me or....."Sera! Damn sorry I was late ,the result will be out tomorrow evening and then the second audition will be taking place" Fidra said as I turned to her"Oh, okay""You Good? You sing really great and I bet you will win it to the second house" she says and I smiled at her~Inside Fidra's car as she drove me home I couldn't get my head off what just happened,Why do I keep feeling this weird sensation?"Sera, you have been my friend for fifteen years and to think that you can actually hide shits from me sucks"
||Sera||"You sent for me? I said to Zach as I stood in front of him with my heart beating fasterI have successfully entered the house with the help of one of guards ,Ryan."You are out of cell not because I have forgiven you for your craziness but because my mother will be visiting here tomorrow and she won't ............, Did you even get me?he asked and i blinked my eyes nodding"You put on your best behavior or I won't spare you, leave my room" I nodded again and walked out of the room to mineI sighed as I sat on the bed facing the ceiling, my mother I really need to hear from her but that will be tomorrow, I really need the best of rest nowI yawned and lay on the bed, after the song I felt much better and strongI smiled and shut my eyes waiting patiently for sleep~The early morning sun shone on my face as I opened my eyes yawning"Good morning ma" I turned to meet Vida smiling at me"Morning" I s
||Sera||I stared at my self once more in the mirror and was satisfied, I was dressed on red gown and white flip flopMy hair was tamed and was arranged in red and white ribbon, I had applied a light make-up which look great on me.Well, I should be in my best behaviorThe door opened and I took my gaze away from the mirror and turned to look at who entered, it was Vida"The High family arrives,your presence is needed" she said bowing"I will be there in a minute" I replied her and she nodded walking outI took one more gaze at the mirror and grab my phone as I stepped out of my room shutting the door behindI walked down the stairs feeling nervous as I count the number of the stairs I was onSuccessfully I climbed down the stairs without missing any steps, I walked outside where Vida had informed me Zachery wasI stood beside him as the guards opened the car door for the family , Zachery just stared me on gaze an
||Sera||I sat in my room as I scrolled down on my phone, I have successfully maintained an unsuspicious face at the dining roomI sighed and kept my phone beside me as I rubbed my palmMy life was a mess!A complicated life at that.My mother's word still got me more confused "You're the chosen one"Well, she can say anything just to make sure I stayed hereThe door of my room opened and Eva entered smiling"You okay? She asked ad sat beside me, I smiled at her and nodded"Am Great""So,how is your stay here? Hope Zach is not bored? She askedI swallowed as I stared at her, how I wish i can tell her he was the most grumpy fellow I had ever meet"Not at all,he's sweet" I replied"Yeah I guess,Uhmm what are you good at?"Huh?"I mean,what are you perfect at? She asked and I smiledAt least someone cared!"Am Good at singing""Wow!! Am good at dancing but am re
||AVA||I stepped into my room and fall on the bed, wow I missed this place so muchI rang the bell on the small table beside my bed and a maid entered immediately"You request for me".I stared at her and scoff, does Zachery give them so much opportunity that they all lost there manners?"Are you stupid?? Can't you bow?!! I yelled at her and she shivered"Am sorry' she said and bowed while I smiled"Get your smelling body out of my room" I yelled again and she obeyed and rushed outI walked to my bag and brought out a bubble gum from it and opened it then trow it into my mouthI walked back to my bed and brought out my phone as I placed a call MaryThinking about the lady I meet downstairs, I hated her at first sightTo think Zach ever wedded her get me more annoyed, she doesn't know me yetI will make sure I made her leave this house and that is by the help of MaryI smirked and dailed her n

He asked and sat beside me"Yeah am good just worried" I replied rubbing my neck"Worried,? about what actually?"Ryan have you ever thought why boss sent us here to protect miss Sera?""Oh that? Well maybe he had a connection with her who knows? I have thought about that lately" He replied and I nodded.A minute of silence cramped into the room as both of us were lost in thought"Am worried about Miss Sera's safety here, I over heard Ava putting a call across Mary that bossy bitch, I just don't know but if she's to come into this house for her called vacation I wonder how Sera will cope around her""You shouldn't think that Vida, even though I haven't stay around her but I see her brave" Ryan replied and I sighed"I know that Ryan but you know Mary, she can be difficult sometimes, anyway I h

Chosen one?? Who the fuck those chosen one help?Argh!! I couldn't hate him less and I badly needed to get him out of my wayWhatever it will take Sera is mine and no one, not even Zachery can have him!!I shut my door and brought out my phone then placed a call on Mason which he picked up immediately"Boss?" He greeted"Mason,I need your help" I said"Anything you wish boss""Mary might be back anytime soon, I want both of you to make Zachery not to fall in love with Sera, Do everything you can to see you convince him into sending her out""Why?"Because Sera is the so called chosen one and unfortunately I'm in love with her""As you wish boss"||EVA||"Eva are you okay in there?

||SERA||Once my alarm beeps, I slowly stood up from my bed and rush to the bathroom where I had a quick showerI put on A black trouser and a hoodie then brought out the letter I had written earlyDropping it on my bed I slowly opened the window and successfully climbed down with the ropeIt should be twelve o'clock now, I don't think I can cross the gate because probably the security was tightSo I had to jump through the fence and then ran out of the bush where I meet Fidra's car parked afar waiting for meI stopped running and stared at the mansion I called my homeAm really sorry for this Zachery and Gracie, I hope you forgive me for hurting your dad!I opened the car door and slide in as Fidra ignited the engine driving out of the street"Seriously girl isn't this creepy of you?" She asks as we drive through the lonely dry streets"I know right?""Sera, if you have to get away from Zach I don't think

He asked sitting next to me"Yeah,am good" I nodded holding his hand as I rest my head on his shoulders"Join me to the club?
