NAYA"I don't have unfinished business with you and I don't have anything to talk about with you. I already made it clear that we are done a long time ago!" I yelled at Liam. "I am her husband. How can I not be involved in this when you are harassing my wife?" Rowan asked him. "You know nothing about the kind of relationship that we have, do you think that you have her just because you are messing with her right now? It is just because she is mad at me right now. We are going to get back together and she will leave you ...wait, what do you mean by you're married?" Liam asked as he looked from me to Rowan in shock. He was not expecting this. I smirked at him. I only let him know that I was together with someone else. I did not let him know that we were already married. It was a good time for him to find out about our marriage. Maybe he would finally leave me alone then. "How can you be married to her? What is the meaning of this? Naya.. how are you going to make such an impulsiv
LIAMI walked back to the restaurant to meet my parents disappointed. I could not believe that Naya had tricked me like this. I thought that her agreeing to see me meant that she was willing to work on our relationship and that I was finally going to get a second chance. I had really been looking forward to it. In fact I thought that I just need to convince her a bit before I got some of her blood and made the antidote that the princess needed. But then it turned out that she had only been playing with me. She just wanted to give me hope and then dash all of my hopes for no reason at all. How could Naira do that to me? She used to be so in love with me. How did her feelings change so much that she was not thinking about hurting me?And she was married to that man?! How could she be married to Rowan? I thought that there was nothing serious going on between them and that she was just dating him for fun. That was why I did not bother about him much. I thought that she would come to h
NAYAI walked into the house with Rowan. Rowan was walking fast, because he was really angry with me. I sighed as I watched him walk away. "Rowan, " I called out to him.I ran to catch up with him. Rowan went into his study and he almost shut the door in my face but I was able to push my way in. "Rowan, I am very sorry for not telling you about it. I should have told you about it but I really thought that I did not need your help and that I would be able to handle it. I really wasn't planning on staying long!" I tried to defend myself. "Do you think that I won't have let you gone if you had just told me that you were going to meet Liam and his parents?" Rowan asked me. I lowered my head when he asked this. Perhaps, subconsciously, I had thought that he won't let me go if I asked. He would give me reasons why it was dangerous and why I should not do it. I didn't want that, and so I had gone without telling him. Rowan sighed. "What goes on in your head, Naya. I won't have stoppe
NAYA"I don't get it, Rowan. I did not tell you where I was going so how did you know?".I asked as I looked at Rowan. I had an idea of what he was getting up to and how he knew where I was bud I still wanted to confirm it from his mouth. Rowan looked away from me. I could see the guilt on his face. Don't you already know why I was there? It's because i have someone following you at all times and I can know where you are. If I didn't have someone doing that, how would I have known that you were in danger? If you won't tell me things yourself, then I guess that I will have to do whatever I can to keep you safe. You are my wife after all and I just want to make sure that you're safe!" Rowan said. I sighed and tried to hold back my temper when he said this. I really wanted to get angry and lose my temper with him but I decided to hold myself back. .it was useless to lose my temper with him. That was not going to stop him. Maybe I could try to reason with him. "Rowan, how could you
SOPHIE My heart was beating fast against my chest. No matter how hard I tried to get myself to calm down, I could not do that. I felt like I was about to go crazy from how worried I was. Nothing I did was able to get me to calm down at all. Today was the day I was supposed to turn in the design that I made for he logo. And I had not come up with anything. I had watched videos online all night trying to do something but I could not come up with anything. I also tried to copy off over designs and make them into the logo but I abandoned it. It was not going to work because frankly, I did not know how I was going to make it work.No matter what I did, it would just be obvious that I had copied off someone else. And the company was strict about plagiarism. I would be fired if I was caught coping off others. At this rate, I was not sure if I would be able to keep my job even. If Rowan came over today and found out that I had done anything, then would I be able to keep my job? I did not
SOPHIEAbout an hour passed after I had submitted the design. I saw Rowan and Naya walk into the design department and then go over to the manager's office without looking at anyone. Naya had a worried look on her face as she walked and I smiled. She had no idea what was coming for her. This was what she deserved for trying to mess with me. Did she really think that I was someone that she could play around with and just get away with it just like that?.I could not see what was going on inside the manager's office but I knew that it could not be anything good. I took a deep breath and waited for it all to blow up. A few minutes after Naya and Rowan walked into the manager's office, the manager's office was pushed open again and the manger stepped out. "Sophie, come into my office. We need to talk," he said to me. I got up from my chair with a confident smile on my face..I walked over to the office and I was about to shut the door as I stepped in but the manager stopped me. "Tha
SOPHIEI was taken aback when I heard this. There was a way to prove it? They weren't going to ask us to draw the design again, where they?!I was really scared that they would do that. I had not thought my whole plan through. The only thing that was in my mind then was that I wanted to steal Naya's designs and pass it off as my own so that she could get in trouble..I looked at Naya who had a confident smile on her face now. I looked at the door that was open now. My co-workers were not working. They were all listening in on what was happening. Is this why they told me to close the door? Because they wanted to make me suffer like this? "I don't....I don't...what are you guys going to do? How are you going to prove it? I know that Naya is a famous designer. She can steal from an unknown designer like me and no one will ever find out about anything. She can get away with it and you guys are going to be on her side. I know that I am never going to get justice. But don't you think that
SOPHIEI already had tears falling from my eyes by the time she was done. I had really fallen into the elaborate trap that they had set for me. "I ...it was a mistake....I didn't have the time to make the design...I have been really busy...I did not think that it was a big deal for me to make it since you were going to use Naya's design anyway. I thought that it would be useless for me to do it. That was why....that was why I submitted hers. I am really sorry. I promise that this won't happen again. Can too please not fire me? I promise to do my job well from now on, " I pleaded. I had already been caught. It would be embarrassing for me to keep denying it when the evidence was clear. I could only beg and hope that they would take pity on me. "Sophie, you did not just steal Naya's design. You lied that she stole from you. Do you know what this would have done to her? You would have destroyed her career completely. What did she do to you to deserve this kind of treatment? She did no
NAYAI shuddered when I saw the cold look that was on Liam's face. My whole body was in pain and I knew that I would not be able to stop him if he really wanted to do something to me. I was really scared now. I had no idea what he was going to do to me...."What are you going to do to me, Liam? Rowan is going to be back soon. If you don't want to die, you had better get out of here. He is not going to let you off if you dare to do anything to hurt me," i warned Liam. Liam just smiled evilly. "Well he is not here right now. I am sure that I would have finished and even left before he comes back. You don't have to try to threaten me with him. I am not scared of him at all, you see. I don't care about him. Now stay put and just let me draw some blood from you" he said to me. "Don't come close to me! Don't think I am joking!" I yelled. He didn't listen to me. He was still approaching me. "Just stay put Naya, it's not going to hurt at all. I just need a bit of your blood to make the
LIAMI was not expecting Naya to wake up at all. Her face was really pale so whatever has happened to her must have been pretty serious. I was blown away when her eyes fluttered open. My heart was beating fast against my chest. I was still holding on to her arm and she was blinking at me as if she was trying to figure out what was going on. "What are you doing here?" Naya asked me. Her voice was really weak. She tried to sit up on the bed but she fell back down on the bed. He face went vent paler. It was obvious that she was in a lot of pain. She placed her hand on her stomach. "What happened to me?" She mumbled to herself. I scoffed at her. "You really have no one else to blame but yourself for this. You are the one who brought this upon yourself. If you had just listened to me and did as I asked, then we won't have gotten here. You have no one else to blame but yourself," I repeated this over and over again. "Liam....what are you doing here?" She asked me. If was as if Naya h
LIAM"What do you need me to do for you?" I asked him urgently. I was more than willing to do anything now. As long as it meant that I was going to keep my life. I didn't want to die. "I need you to rescue someone for me. He was taken by someone... I need to to get him out there," The King said with a frown on his face. I blinked my eyes. I could tell that he war trying to hold back as much informational as possible. I could not understand why he was doing this. If he wanted me to do something, then he should tell me what it entailed upfront so that I would be able to do a good job. "You need to tell me all that I should know about this person so that I can rescue them," I said to the King. He waved his hand at me. "you don't need to know anything more. You just need to know that he's currently behind held at the home of a man called Rowan. You just need to find out where Rowan keeps him and get him out for me," he said to me. I bit my lips and chuckled to myself when I heard Row
ROWANI looked towards the window and I saw that it was nighttime. I sighed, really worried about Naya. Was she going to come out of the place alive?.The thought of hrr dying was the scariest thing to me and I didn't really think that I would be able to take it if anything did happen to her. Henry came back with the drinks that he said he was going to get and he handed one to me. I took it from him and took a sip. I had to admit that it was really good just what I needed. Just then, the doctor walked out of the hospital room and I ran to him immediately. "Doctor....how is my wife doing ...she is not going to die, right? She is going to be okay right?" I asked him all in one breath. The doctor looked at me and shook his head and my heart started to beat fast against my chest. I didn't know what to do or say at that moment. The only thing I could think of was that she was dead. She had died. What was I supposed to do without her? How was I even going to continue my life without
LIAMI walked out of the princess room with a heavy heart. Although I would have liked to stay and talk with her some more, I didn't want to do that. I knew her father was going to be back any time soon and I didn't want to make him even more angry with me. I was walking back to the doctors office when I saw someone I never thought I'd see in the VIP ward of the hospital. It was Rowan and he was pacing outside a hospital room with a worried look on his face. There was another man with him who also had a worried look on his face. I hid myself in a corner so he won't see me and I continued to watch him. What was he doing here? Was Naya in the hospital? I got a report from the Elders in her pack that had left the pack since her father got better. What happened to her for her to be in the hospital though? I had a lot of questions. Besides,I wasn't even sure that she was the one in there. The other guy placed a hand on Rowan's shoulder. "I am going to go downstairs and get somethi
LIAM"And what do you want to see her for? Do you even think that her father is going to let you see her? You were supposed to have come back for the antidote for her soon but you didn't do that. Because of you, her life is in danger now and you think that for some kind of reason you can come here and demand that out want to see her?! "The doctor yelled at me. I bowed my head as he scolded me as if I was a child. I did not dare to raise my head or say a single word back to him. I knew that all it was going to take was for me to make a simple mistake and then they were going to deal with me. I didn't want to risk it at all. "No, you don't understand it. I just want to know how she's doing. I am not planning anything. How could I dare to plan anything when you're still her with me? I am really very sorry for what she is going through and I really just want to make sure that she is fine, okay. Besides, the King isn't here right now. I will be back before he comes back," I assured the
LIAMMy legs were shaking as I walked into the hospital. I walked into the doctor's office and I sighed in relief when I was that he was the only one who was in the office. What I was going to get from him was a scolding at least. The King was not here and he was the only one who could kill me. Seems like I still had some time to think of how I was going through convince them to give me a second chance. "So....what is your excuse, Liam? What lie are you going to come up with this time? You know, if you were not up to the task then you should not have lied and said that you were. It would have been much more easier for everyone else if you had just told the truth instead of beating around the bush and lying your way out! How dare you lie to the King?! Do you really think that you'd be able to survive this?" He asked me. I wanted to fall to my knees and plead, but I knew that it would be best to reserve that for when I saw the King. "You know that is not true at all. I have always
LIAMI dropped the phone on my table slowly. The call that I had just gotten was enough to shake me up. The princess had been admitted to the hospital. She was dying because she had not gotten the antidote in a few months. My heart was beating fast against my chest as I thought about what her father was going to do to me once he got his hands on me. He would not let me off. In fact, I was sure that he might even try to kill me. He would really kill me! I was so scared just thinking about it. All of the plans that I had made to get Naya back to her so that I could get some of her blood had failed terribly. She seemed to be aware of what I was planning and she blocked me on every front. I tried to get the Elders to work against her because I wanted her to come crawling to me. Once she married me to stabilise her father's pack, then I could do whatever I wanted with her right? That was why I had her father attacked, and pressured the Elders into asking her to get married. But it
ROWANNaya was in my arms, bleeding badly. Her eyes were wide open and she tried to say something but she could not nin the end, she closed her eyes and passed out.I picked her up and stood up with Naya in my arms. I knew I had to get her to the hospital as soon as possible. As I stood up, I was the rogue. There was a pale look on his face and the full weight ot what he had done seemed to be crashing down on him now. He took a few steps back as she tried to get away from me. I did not pay attention to him though as the only person I cared about in that moment was Naya and how I was gonna to get her to the hospital and make sure that her life was saved. I rushed out with Naya in my arms. Before I did, I turned to look at Henry and he nodded his head at me, indicating that he knew what he was going to do. ......Naya was admitted to the hospital as soon as I got here and the doctor told me that they had to operate on her. I was not even listening to anything that they were sayi
