Naya's POVIt takes every ounce of self control not to grab the knife behind Liam and stab his heart through the back.I can't believe that I haven't thrown up yet from the number of times I've kissed him this afternoon in the kitchen.It disgusts me. His mere presence.My mind can't shake off the feeling that he is up to no good.Everything about him gives that away; from the overly lengthy smile on his face, down to how he has endlessly tried to say sweet things to me.When he leaves, I go into the toil
Naya's POVThere's a frown on Liam's face immediately as I get into the car.“I told you to stay back, Naya,” he doesn't hesitate to say.His fists are tight on the steering, the engine of the car humming as it awaits him to put it in motion.“Babe… take it easy okay? We'll find a way to get the money and a donor,” I assure him.I'm so damned that I have to speak this way to this devil. But all I care about is the little child's life, nothing else.“I can't take it easy, Nay
Liam's POVI stand in front of the massive Greenheart hospital. My attention is stuck on their giant symbol — a snake curled on a green apple, while I wait for Naya to come out.I wonder what could have been the motivation behind the symbol. Every meaning I try to read into it has a negative message to it.I stroll down to the lot, unlocking my car and taking a can of whiskey from the dashboard. Taking a gulp, I squeeze the hot liquor down my throat and out the can down.Relaxing on my seat, a soft giggle escapes my lips as I think about how gullible Naya is. She has always been like that, anyway.
Naya's POVI'm standing before Sophie's door. A weak sigh falls out of my mouth as I'm about to touch the doorbell.I remember when I didn't have to knock before going into the house. But now, I do. A personal decision of mine, which she's yet to take note of. And if at all she has, she hasn't found the balls to discuss it with me.The bronze knob twists and the door comes open.“Hey, Naya. What are you standing out there doing?” Sophie says. “The door was open all along.”I scratch the back of my head, forcing a nervous smile. “Oh, my bad. L
Liam's POVI'm seated on a long white stool, waiting for the physician as he examines the blood.“You got all this from one person, Liam?” He asks.“Yes,” I answer curtly.He chuckles. “Hope that person is still alive.”“That's none of your damn business,” I caution him. “Quickly confirm the blood-type. I need to get going.”“I’m almost done with the analysis,” he says, letting out a sigh. He scratches his white beards, pushing his gl
Liam's POVMy heart pounds heavily against my ribcage. This can't be happening. I literally brought Naya's blood to save the princess' life and also save this idiot from the master's wrath.How ugly can people be?“I don't want no fucking video. Tell me what exactly happened here,” the master demands.“Liam brought in some new blood and made me confirm that it was the same blood type,” the physician responds.My hand clutches my dagger tight.Without looking at me, the master orders, &ld
Naya's POVMy eyes collide with Rowan's dark eyes in the back of the car I just entered. Cold feet grips me immediately.“Henry,” I mutter.“I told you he wanted to see you now, didn't I?” Henry says.I shake my head as a sigh escapes my lips.“Fine. You played smart.”I lock my jaws together as my eyes meet the cold otbs of Rowan's eyes.“Good afternoon, Rowan Yorke,” I blurt out.
Naya's POVFrom the main gate of the Yorke family estate down to the main mansion, my eyes can't believe what they've just seen.There's no way in the world one family could own such a huge property. I can't count the acres of land but I'm pretty sure an airport would fit perfectly here.I don't know how to ask Rowan if all of this belonged to his family since I've clearly seen their name written on the overhead post at the entrance.Henry drives gently until we get to the main family mansion.My legs suddenly feel heavy at the thought of coming down from the car.
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
