Eaten alive
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56I stood there frozen in the same spot as my limbs seemed to have stopped working. I could not get them to move even an inch.
I couldn't even turn around to see what's going to eat me until I heard an all too familiar voice saying"Come back to the cave."A wave of relief washed over me. Thank God it wasn't a wolf or a lion, I thought in my head.After saying that, he turned back and headed towards the cave.Walking back seemed longer than when I was leaving, am not complaining, though at least now I know will not get eaten alive or I could by the cavemanYeah right, keerah, the voice in my head said.And that made me rolled my eyes at my own ridiculous thoughts.He's going to eat you and he let you leave in the first place, my head offers back.He was walking ahead , while I walked at a safe distance behind him.I wanted to say something, or at least ask few questions, but I didn't want to blow up my last chance at a shelter.So, I decided against it and remained quiet...We arrived at the cave in a nerve-wracking silence. None of us said a word to the other.He left and returned with a bag filled with something in it.He opened it and took out an apple, then passed me the bag...I grabbed it quickly before he changes his mind.After grabbing it, I went to sit down on a rock at the far corner inside the cave.I took out two apples and started to eat. The more I ate, the hungrier I became.You know that saying; I didn't know that I was starving till I tasted you. Well, in this case, I knew I was hungry. I just didn't know it was this much...I ate those apples in the most ungraceful manner you could ever imagine…Mr caveman just kept staring at me with his back resting on the cave wall with his arms crossed like he's seen a nutcase...After six apples and a couple of stares later, I felt like I couldn't stomach any more of the apples and that's when I remembered I hadn't said thank you yet...I looked up to where he stood and said, "thank you Mr caveman" he stared at me for a while before saying"it's Eric, not caveman."Eric...I said, tasting the name on my tongue. "Nice name" I said."You remember mine, right?" but he said nothing, so I took that as a yes.I yawned, feeling my eyes trying to close on their own accord, so I looked to where the makeshift bed was and pointed to it while yawning."can I sleep there? I asked, but he said nothing...I was already used to the silence, so I just proceeded to the bed and lied down.The moment my back hit the bed, I slept off...****Then, I was in a room lying on my stomach while holding a book. I tried to read the words but I couldn't concentrate, noises were coming from downstairs, I think...I got up and checked what was going on; I left the room and went down the hallway; I reached a trail of stairs and trailed down the stairs slowly.On my way down I saw people dressed neatly in butler's clothes, which all stopped to bow when they saw me...Not acknowledging them, I continued down the stairs, but then the world around me shook, so I tried to hold on to the railings, but they slipped through my fingers and then I heard my name being called from afar...Wake up, Akeera the voice kept on saying.I sprang up abruptly and hit my head with someone's own.ouch, we both said at the same time...I looked up and saw Eric holding his hand to his head where our heads bumped..."Sorry", I said..."Why were you shaking me awake?" I asked him.He was quiet for a while before saying..."You seemed like you were having a terrible nightmare"He said, and I just stared at him trying to analyze the situation, and then, everything came crashing down on me like a wave of reality...And then I started crying. The tears kept falling from my eyes uncontrollably...Eric just stared at me with auto confusion. I'm sure he's never seen a dramatic person like me before...I couldn't stop crying. I was so confused I didn't know what life held anymore. Do I even have a family? Would they find me? Or would they think I am dead...All these thoughts made me cry even harder. After bawling my eyes out for hours, the tears stopped falling I think I ran out of them.I just sat there on the bed, like a rain beaten, lost puppy, scared of what might happen to me next...Related chapters
Love or Revenge you look like you've been hit by a dragon
As I sat there, like a rain beaten lost puppy, so many thoughts ran through my head...What would I do now?How do I survive? I don't even remember anything or anyone so I don't know if there's anything to go back to...Is there anyone looking for me? Does anyone even know am missing?Would I ever remember?Would this be my life now or would I be saved?All this question without answers prompts my tears to start falling again..."Here, take this" I heard Eric say, I raised my eyes to see him handing me his handkerchief...I just stared at it without saying a word..."It's for your face"I reached for the handkerchief, collected it, and blow my nose into it.Eric made a disgusted face, then turned to leave."Thank you," I saidAs if that was all he needed to hear he came back and stood awkwardly....."Are you okay? You looked terrified in your sleep, that's why I woke you up, maybe I shouldn't have" he said slowly...I looked at him not saying anything."Am sorry" he said and left the
Love or Revenge fruits
We kept walking non-stop for what felt like ages, with me asking for the millionth time where we were going and Eric ignoring me.Are we there yet? I asked again earning myself a glare from Eric"We get there when we get there so please just stop asking already and follow quietly for once" Eric said visibly frustrated with my constant prodding.We walked for a while more in eery silence none of us saying anything to the other.When I opened my mouth to say something again Eric just glared at me with a grim expression on his face before I could even get the words out...I humphed and walked ahead while muttering to myself how he wouldn't even let me talk.I walked faster for a while before realizing I don't even know where am going...I stopped abruptly causing Eric to crash into me, knocking me off my feet..."Oohhh,"I shriekedd closing my eyes and awaiting my body to make an impact with the ground but it never did.It's like I was hanging in the air or rather someone was holding me,
Love or Revenge tangled mess
After Eric disappeared, I went to the spot where I took my bath and tried to wash the tangled mess on my head, but that merely turned out to be a complete disaster..."I don't think I've ever done this myself before," I said out loud..."I mean if I had, even if my memory was lost my body should at least be able to do what it does before right?" I asked no one in particular as I continued to struggle with my poor hair...I think there's a saying that goes...that body has memories or am I only mixing things up as I've lost part of my memories I thought to myself helplessly, and I continued to battle with my hair.I was still battling with my hair when I heard footsteps, I knew it was Eric even though I didn't look up.After a few struggles and unsatisfied messy hair later, I decided I had done enough for today. At least all I had to do now was rinse off the shampoo from my tangled hair...The question is how do I do that without getting my clothes wet.My eyes are closed, but I assumed
Love or Revenge favourite place
We sat silently, watching the blaze of the fire as it grows up to meet the stick on top of it, Eric had started the fire a while ago with the woods we had picked up...Eric watched the fire silently as it began to die down, before getting up to bring something he had kept wrapped up in a foil paper.I watched with undivided interest as Eric unwraps the thing from inside the foil and it appears to be some leftover meat he had kept aside for dinner. Eric then fixed the meat over the fire for warming. He must have gone hunting before I got here, I thought to myself. I looked at the meat, and It looked like some kind of big bird or something it had been cut already so I couldn't fully tell what kind of animal it was..."How long have you been here for Eric?" I asked breaking the ice like silence.Eric was silent for a while, and I was beginning to think he wasn't going to answer, but then he did."I've not been here long enough to have gone crazy or long enough to want to go back home."

Love or Revenge Destiny or sick games
Eric's POVI woke up early, not because I was unable to sleep but because I was an early morning person.I looked to the other side and keera was lying down on the bed still asleep, she slept peacefully like an angel.I guess she wasn't having a bad dream like yesterday. She looked so cute pouting while asleep.I stood up from my bed and adjusted the blanket over her body, I then went to the spot where I take my bath and removed my clothes then got into the water. ..My mind unintentionally drifted to the first time I saw her. I had just returned from picking up a few fruits that would last me a few days. Upon entering the cave I heard movement in the water.I was confused at first because I knew fishes could not live in that particular water because of its temperature, so I thought maybe an animal or something had fallen in there, so I dropped the bag of fruits and went to check what was going on.When I reached I saw what I least expected a girl... she was floating on the water with
Love or Revenge lust island?
Keera's POVI sat By the waterfalls silently, the previous event replaying in my head for the umpteenth time more, before I got uncontrollably bored, I later concluded that I could not change what had happened.So I stood up, not wanting to go back to the cave just yet, so I decided to play around for a while, before going back in. Hopefully, Eric's gone from the cave by then, as I don't think I'm ready to face him yet.I went to the field of lilies and picked up one, apologizing to the poor flower for plucking it, I then proceeded to put it in my hair after using my hands to comb through it.My hair was so much better than the tangled mess it was yesterday, as it cascaded down my back in form of messy beachy waves, so I'm sure the flower doesn't look too out of place.I looked up at the sky using my right hand to shield my eyes from the sun, and the sky was a pretty shade of blue and at that moment, I forgot all about my embarrassment and all I felt was pure happiness.My happy state
Love or Revenge creepy perv?...
Keera's POVWhen I went back onto the cave, I went straight to the bath tub after picking up clothes for changing, I then stripped off my dirty ones, and discarded them on the floor before proceeding to take the long-overdue bath...After taking my bath I put on one of the sweatshirts and one of the boxers Eric's brought for me, while wondering why he had given them to me.I'm sure they were Eric's boxers though they looked like they were new, and I don't think he's ever worn them... I thought involuntarily as I checked the clothes...The sweat shirt was a little too big and I had to fold it's arms a little. But the boxers on the other hand was not big at all because it hugged my curves perfectly, almost like a second skin but the sweat shirt was long enough to cover it...I then proceeded to put on my snickers, before going back into the main cave, Eric was not there just as I hadn't expected him to be...I decided to sit down and try to remember my past... I mean I'm not sure it wor
Love or Revenge I kidnapped you
Eric's POV,I was laughing so hard at keera's bewildered expression when I said, she'd probably cost a few million dollars if I decided to sell her...She must have thought that I was serious because the look on her face matched that of fear...I wanted to play along, make her think I was really serious but I just couldn't stop myself from laughing.Ever since keera got here, I've laughed more than I ever did my entire life and for some odd reason am glad I told her to come back to the cave... I was bent over while laughing, so I didn't see keera getting up from the rock where she was sitting.The Next thing I know is that I was falling, I grabbed onto the only thing I could reach, which happens to be keera's hand to stop myself from falling, which of course was a frail attempt considering my built body, and keera's small one...So before I knew it we were both on the ground.Oh, well I was on the ground, keera was sprawled on top of me...I groaned when my body made an impact with t

Love or Revenge What happened
Keerah POVThe sound of someone speaking from a far distance was what pulled me out of the oblivion I was in for a couple of hours.My eyes started to flutter open slowly as the sound of the voice kept growing nigher.Since I didn’t open up my eyes all at once, my eyes took the time to adjust to the brightness of the room before it finally opened completely.I turned my head slowly trying to get familiar with my environment, and it looked like I was in a hospital room or something because all the walls were white.I slowly turned my head back to look at the person who’s voice I think woke me up, and that person turned out to be my mom.She was holding up my hand in her two hands, while her head was down, and I think she didn’t realize that I was awake because I didn’t get up, so she continued speaking quietly."Please baby, you need to wake up," she kept on saying."Mom," I called out slowly after I had turned my head to where she was seated.She didn’t respond so I assume she probabl
Love or Revenge Threats
Eric’s POV,I resisted the urge to punch a hole into the hospital wall, so I looked in front of me at two pairs of eyes that were glaring holes into my head that had been staring down at my feet, and I also glared back at him.I couldn’t help but wonder what his relationship with her was, and I don’t think I’m going to like it when I find out what he was to her, because I know he probably wasn’t her brother since she was an only child.We were there for about a few minutes before her parents also came over to where we were standing."What did the doctors say, is my baby going to be okay," Keerah’s mother’s worried voice filled the empty hallways as she quickly came over to the guy standing in front of me."She’s going to be okay Mom, they are just trying to get a few tests done," he replied and that made me knit my eyebrows together.Does that mean he is her brother, if he is then why did no one know about the fact that Keerah had an older brother I thought, as I continued to watch ho
Love or Revenge Fainted
Eric’s POV...The phone rang for quite a while and she didn’t pick up which almost made me start the car to drive over to her apartment, but just before it would stop ringing, she answered with a quiet hello."Hello, " she asked into the phone a few times, but I was quiet because I didn’t think it was okay for me to talk to her over the phone, not after the last conversations we had."Why did you call if you weren’t going to say anything," she said just when I was about to end the call.I sighed loudly and told her I was coming over to her house to have a real talk about the whole pregnancy issue.While I was still speaking with her, I almost forgot that Keerah could actually be the one in danger and that made me yell a few curse words in Italian before ending the call and starting the car quickly and zooming off to the Duke Walters mansion."Shit!" I kept yelling a few times as I thought of the way I had left her back at her house without a a word.I can’t believe I left like that al

Keerah's POV, #previously"And who was the guy that just left?" He asked pointing towards the doorway with a hard look on his face."Oh that was Eric dear, he was the one who found her and he brought her to us," My mom replied to him patiently."Where did he find her, how do we know he is not the person who kidnapped her," Damien said his voice filled with doubt.My mom tried to narrate the whole story that Eric had told her when we came earlier to him and I watched how he listened attentively to everything she said and when she was done speaking, he also spoke."So let me get this straight." He said and paused for a while before starting to speak again."So what you're saying is she woke up on an island with no memories at all, and that island also happened to be the same island where this so-called Eric was having a vacation, and it was just the two of them on that island for God knows how long, and he claims he doesn't know or have any idea how she ended up there," Damien said, re
Love or Revenge Note
Eric's POV,We finished with the funeral after a while and everyone was beginning to leave, but we didn't move. I, Karl and Harry waited behind, but I looked from side to side watching the faces of all the people leaving, and someone among the crowd caught my attention. "Mel!" I grunted and took fast strides but before I would catch up to her, she blended into the crowd.I stopped and looked around but she was nowhere to be found and if not for the fact that I locked eyes with her, then I would have thought that my head made her up, because I was thinking of ways to find her.However, no matter how much I looked around the crowd, I still couldn't find her. At this point, my blood was boiling over. I can't believe she had the damn guts to attend his funeral after what she did."Hey what's going on," Karl asked me coming over to where I was standing. It was the first words he had spoken to me since I arrived."I just saw Mel," I replied still looking around."Yo I don't think she'll com

Keerah's POVEven though Eric was gone for a few minutes now, I couldn't help but have a tiny bit of the hope that he would turn around even for a split second just to tell me he would be back.But he didn't, I waited and waited and continued to wait all the while ignoring all the questions thrown at me by the guy who was seated on the chair beside me, the same guy who had been hugging only a while ago."Hey, Damien let her be for now," I heard my mom say to the guy who was seated beside me."She doesn't remember anything, " she added."Oh my God, baby are you okay?" My mom asked with a sort of urgency in her voice and that snapped me out of my thoughts."Look, Damien, you made her cry," she scolded the guy beside me.I didn't understand why she said that because I did not realize the tears I had been trying so hard to hold back has rolled down my cheeks until I reached up to my hands to my face and touched the wetness on it.I quickly got rid of the tears and then shook my head slowl
Love or Revenge Funeral grounds
Eric's POV,I smiled at everyone awkwardly before quickly apologizing for cursing out loud, something I'm sure they are probably not used to.I can't believe I had totally forgotten about Park Min. He fucking just died and I'm already too busy to remember the funeral.I couldn't bring myself to spend even a second more in that place, so I got up and left after informing the families that I really needed to leave because something important came up.Keerah's mom even asked if I might need help with anything and I thanked her before declining her offer to help while letting her know it wasn't something I needed help with.I hurried out of the house and into my car, which was still parked at the front door, and zoomed out of the place in a heartbeat.I can't believe I almost missed his funeral, which was the only thing I could do for him now that he was dead and never coming back.I drove the car at a high speed not bothering about the speed warnings at the side of the road since the onl
Love or Revenge Keerah
Keerah's POV.One of the girls walked over to the door and threw it open and then said "Your bath Mi lady."I walked over to the opened door and I was mind blown by the interior of the bathroom.I never thought a privy could be so damn beautiful with marvellous interior designs.I walked inside the bathroom and saw a big bathtub that was filled with bubbly scented water and a few red rose petals in the middle of the gigantic bathroom.The bathroom was as big as my room at Eric's place and I couldn't help but fall in love with every bit of its design.When I was completely inside the bathroom, the girl who had opened the doors for me, told me they'll be right outside the door if I need anything, before she closed the door.Although I wasn't thrilled about taking a bath at first, my mind had completely changed the moment I saw the bathroom, so I stripped off my clothes and entered into the bathtub.I noticed the small tub that was connected to the large bathtub and I assumed that was pr
