Alexander drove into his mansion around evening. It was quiet and somewhat empty. He already set free most of the ladies and it wasn’t surprising that there wasn’t a slight noise. “Welcome sir”, a security guard greeted the minute before stepped out of his car. He nodded and started walking away, gesturing for him to come with him.“Tell me everything that happened”, Alexander said as he took a seat in his study room.The man bowed his head in respect just as he explained everything that happened during his absence, including how One had suddenly decided to go to the rooftop where she caught sight of the enemy. Alexander was shocked at this point and called for One. One was in her room, still pondering over her life and trying so hard to think of a means to find where Amelia was taken to. Just then, her door opened and one of the men walked in and started pulling her out of the room.She screamed aloud and tried to kick them off, but they didn’t relent until they were standing bef
One sighed again for the hundredth time in a roll. She wiped off the sweats that had formed on her forehead after which she looked at her hand that was currently bleeding from the impact of the whip.She paced around the dungeon and wiped off the tears that had formed in her eyes. At this point, she was at the verge of giving up on Alexander and thoughts of anything that concerned the mansion. However, when she recalls that she would be termed the loser, she would have a change of heart. The gates of the dungeon clicked at the point to reveal one of the guards who looked at her with disdain. “You are free to go back to your quarters”, he ordered and One slowly walked out, barely sparing him a glance. The dungeon was now a place she frequently visited. But then, she didn’t care about that. All she wanted was a means to get to Alexander and she wasn’t going to stop until she got it. Just when she was on the way to her quarters, she stopped walking and looked at the guard who was fol
Amelia’s PovIt still looked like a dream to see Noah. But then, I pinched myself severally and it only became more obvious that this was reality. He was really sitting down here with me and looking into my eyes.“Are you that shocked?” He asked and for a minute, I thought I had heard wrongly. Of course I was currently in a state of shock. I never thought or imagined that I would ever set my eyes on Noah again. Apart from that, the way and manner he made his way into the house, with the number of security outside was really mind blowing.“How did you get past the security? I mean, and the entrance?” I asked the one question I had in my heart and he only smiled and took in a deep breath. “I created a distraction and somehow snuck in. I almost got caught…but luckily, I wasn’t”, he replied and beamed at me.Just then, I heard some footsteps approaching and this prompted me to quickly jerk to my feet. “You should hide! No one can see you here”, I quickly said to him, even if he behaved
Two days has passed since One came into Alexander’s room. He had gone to meet her and after punishing her, she apologized and said that she was only searching for a book to read.“But you lied that you weren’t the one who came into the room. You even pushed the blame to an innocent person”, Alexander had said to her, with a look of disgust on his face.One bit her lower lips as it dawned on her that she already ran out of what to say. The last thing she thought of was the camera. It didn’t occur to her that someone like Alexander had cameras even in his room.“I’m so sorry! I promise that I won’t do that again”, One pleaded but it fell on deaf ears. Alexander ensured that he punished her and locked her up. Her presence in the mansion was stressing him out already. But then, he knew that it was the last thing to do. If he sends her away, she would definitely go back to work with Grey and that was something he wanted to avoid.The night of the next day was a lonely one for Alexander.
Alexander’s PovThe past few days has been quite rough for both me and Amelia. Somehow, I was glad that we had a means of ensuring that things are safe, even if it demanded that we got separated. I was after her safety and that was all what mattered.Despite how hard I tried to concentrate, I couldn’t take my mind away from the fact that One had come into my room and slept on the same bed with me. That was definitely the worst thing that has happened to me in a while and I had no idea of how to get over it. I felt disgusted each time I thought about it and even if I came over to see Amelia as a means of getting distracted, I couldn’t get over it…“You look disturbed. Is everything okay?” I asked Amelia who suddenly spoke up after being quiet for a long time. She had different emotions in her eyes and I couldn’t deny the fact that she looked slightly worried too.“One came into my room last night and slept on my bed without my knowledge”, i finally decided to break the news to her, ev
One was shocked to her bones just as she recalled how she caught sight of Noah who was sneakily making his way out of the house. At first, she had thought that it was only a mere hallucination, but on a closer look, it was really him.Different emotions surged through her and she couldn’t help thinking of how Alexander would feel when he realizes that a man usually came to visit a woman he loves.Alexander was never a fan of Noah and at this, One knew that this spelt trouble. “This looks good”, she said to herself and squealed in excitement. The past few days had been so hectic for her since she never escaped getting punished from Alexander. The last time she went over to sleep in his room while he was drunk was worst, because it was hard to take off the look of irritation he wore in his face.Somehow, she tried to think of how possible it was that he was that irritated of her.She realized that he was leaving the mansion and she needed no one to tell her that he was heading over t
Amelia took in a deep breadth the moment Alexander walked out of the house. All through the period he stayed around, she was quite worried about Noah and Alexander finding a clue about him. Alexander stayed for only a day, since he had other urgent things to take care of at the moment. Once Alexander left, Noah found his way back into Amelia’s room.“Hi”, he said quietly, causing her to jerk up in fright.She took in a deep breath and held her chest when she realized that he was the one. Scanning him, she observed some blood stains on his knees.“Are you injured?” She asked, with concern written all over her face. Noah took in a deep breath and nodded his head in affirmation.“It was a rough night…I fell and landed on a rock”, he explained, with Amelia gazing at the injury and gasping in worry.She took in a deep breath and sat on the bed, blank on what to do at the moment. “Did anyone see you coming in?” She asked Noah who shook his head negatively.“No one! I mean, I’m so smart a
“It’s One”, Amelia heard from the other end of the phone call and for a minute, she thought that she just heard wrongly. She looked at the strange number on the screen and took in a calm breath to relax her raging heart. “Hello! How can I help you”, Amelia answered bluntly, not wanting to give her a hint of how tensed she was beginning to feel at the moment.The line was silent for a couple of minutes, after which One suddenly started laughing hysterically. “Is there a problem? Why would you call me and decide to start laughing instead?” Amelia asked with a massive frown on her face. She had no idea of what One was driving at, but she could say that she was not interested.“You should know that there is a problem, Eleven. You created the problem”, One joked and broke into another round of laughter.“I’m not Eleven anymore! I would advise that you call me by my real name!” Amelia said defiantly, with her fist clenched and her breath becoming uneven. One was silent for a minute afte
