“Thanks for reading! Let me know what you think so far.”
ANDREW Anna. I haven’t been able to get her out of my mind lately, and I don’t know why. She looked so beautiful and innocent, I kept myself busy for days to restrict myself from torturing her. She was the first girl I kissed, and although I enjoyed her lips, I was angry at myself. I got distracted and forgot I was supposed to be her worst nightmare. Yesterday, when I was with her, she moaned my name. “Drew” it’s been years since I heard that name, the only person who has ever called me that name was my mother and At that moment I wanted to torture her for calling that name, but I restrained myself. The plan was to make her suffer and then end her life without thinking twice, I already made a promise to make her suffer for all her father’s crimes. Her father ruined my childhood twenty-five years ago. I could never forget that day, and although I act okay, my nightmares are getting worse. I haven’t slept for days or even months because I end up seeing events that took place years
ANNABEL “What happened yesterday? Care to spill?” Kate asked, we were cleaning the garden together. “Why do you think something happened?”. “You have been smiling none stop since this morning”. “Have I? I didn’t notice, maybe I woke up on the right side of the bed today”. I said, pretending to be unaware of what she was talking about. After last night, my mood changed, I have been the happiest and I pray it would last. “What of the Alpha’s parents? I have never heard anything about them since I got here” I asked Kate. “I don’t know, but rumors say they died when the Alpha was five years old, and that was twenty-five years ago”. “That’s bad, that means he didn’t experience parental care and love. Do you know why they died?”. “They were killed Anna, that’s why the alpha is like this, he grew up with his uncle” “I think it’s best you dead this topic, it is forbidden to talk about the Alpha’s parents, you can be beheaded for that”. Kate said. “Am just curious, perhaps this has
ANNABEL I guess Adrian must have been very busy because after that day at the garden, I rarely saw him. I was to clean his room today, at least I might finally get to see him. I walked into his room with my cleaning equipment, but it was empty, I was a bit disappointed. Cleaning his room wasn’t hard because it’s always clean, so in no time I was finished. I made my way to the door and just as I was about to open it, he did. He walked in looking tired and rough. “Tough day?”. “Yeah, had a lot to do”. “Ok, I will leave you to rest then.” “No, don’t go yet, stay. I haven’t seen you since the day in the garden”. He said, stopping me from going. “That’s because you’re busy”. I replied. “Now that you are here, I'm not busy. Why don’t we continue our conversation?”He said and I smiled. “I’m busy, I have other rooms to clean”. “Just sit, I won’t take much of your time, I just want to get to know you”. “So, what do you want to know about me? You ask and I answer”. “Everything.
ADRIAN There was something about her that attracted me, she was so beautiful, her smile, her hair, her ocean blue eyes. After that day at the garden, I have longed to see her, but my schedule won’t let me. I walked into my room to meet her petite figure. She wanted to go, but I stopped her. I asked her to tell me about herself, and I was surprised at her story. She had passed through a lot, but that didn’t stop her from smiling. I wished I could tell her what her father did, she was nothing like her father, I wouldn’t even consider Travis as her father because, who allows their daughter to be maltreated when he is the Alpha. Judging from the way she broke down moments ago, she was holding a lot in her heart and I know she deserves to know why Andrew was treating her like that, but I wasn’t in the position to tell her. The next morning. I walked straight to Andrew’s office. I didn’t bother to knock, I just barged in. “When were you going to tell me Travis daughter was here?” I
ANDREW “Just so you know Drew, your parents, wherever they are, won’t be proud of what you have become”. Those were his exact words, how dare him refer to my parents in this situation. I was furious but I let him walk through that door without doing anything. I wanted to punch him so hard for bringing my parents into this conversation but I held myself. I reflected on his assumptions. Will my parents be proud of me? I haven’t thought about it all these while, they ought to be proud of me after all, I’m doing all these for them. Everything I have done is for them. I am making sure they get the justice they deserved years ago. I walked Into my bedroom, I was exhausted. I can’t even recall the last time I closed my eyes but I was tempted to do that now so I gave into the temptation allowing darkness to cloud my vision as I closed my eyes. |There was nothing but utter darkness around me. I couldn't even see what was in front of me. I tried walking around to check if I'd be able
ANNABEL I heaved a sigh when I ran out of his room. I didn’t know how I got the courage to talk back at him, I was so scared, but it just happened, and thankfully it saved me. Little by little I was getting my answers. He grew up in pain, I'm sure his childhood was messy. I felt pity, knowing how tragic it must have been for a five years old boy to watch people rape his mother. Was my father this despicable? I felt angry at the moment. He watched all that happened to his mother and was powerless to do anything. No wonder he grew up like this, he was so furious when I walked into his room, and I’m sure if he had his way he would have killed my father again and again. After seeing him like this today, I’m going to try my possible best to fix him, I know this will be hard because I am just an ordinary maid, but I will try. I walked to my room to find maids gathered there. Did something happen? I walked inside to see Isabelle and her personal maids searching my bag. “What are you
ANDREW I was still deep in thoughts, thinking about what Anna said earlier and the punishment I just gave her now. Deep down, I didn’t think she was a thief, I was disappointed when Isabelle told me she found my mother’s diamond necklace in her bag. That necklace was so special to me because she gave it to me a day before she died and when it got missing, I asked Isabelle to search all the maids in the palace. “What the fuck Andrew” an angry look Adrian said, barging into my office. “How can I help you?”. “Are you not hearing her screams? Do you have peace hearing them, you know deep down that she didn’t steal that necklace”. “It was found in her bag, I had to punish her for theft” “50 whips on her naked back? Do you want her to die in pain?” “I really don’t care if she dies in pain, after all her father did the same to my mother”. “Can you just stop all this for once, stop bringing your mother into all this and listen to yourself, I’m sure this is what Travis did? You’re jus
ANNABEL Pain, that the only thing I felt now and darkness everywhere. I could hear voices, it was my voice and that of someone I wished to see again, my mother. | “Mom, please don’t go, it’s me they want, just let me go” I cried out, but she wouldn’t listen | |“No my baby, I promised to protect you, now you will run and not look back, if mom doesn’t come back, you will have to stay strong no matter what happens, now run!”. She said, and I did.| | “keep running, stay strong” that was what she kept saying as I ran without looking back, little did I know that will be the last time I will ever get to see her| “Annabel keep running, stay strong” “Anna keep running, stay strong” “Don’t look back”. I could hear my name everywhere, it was too much to bear, the noise, the voices, it won’t stop. “Stop”. I shouted opening my eyes, the room was so bright, I had to close my eyes and wait for some minutes. My back hurts so much, I opened my eyes again, taking in my environment. I was in a
