2021-02-26 11:05:35I was ready for my daily walk and I needed it more today than I did all those other days. I needed some time outside and I'd ask Elisabeth not to speak because I just wanted to breathe and think about Quentin and what went down yesterday. I also wanted to think about escaping because my ankle's coming along nicely and I can walk a bit better than before. So I should start coming up with some mastermind plan to get the hell out of this place.
After learning from Quentin yesterday that he owns this entire town, called Wyvernston Creek, that stretched as far as the eye could see, I know my escape won't be easy. I just need to think smart even though I'm desperate enough to do anything at this point.
I heard a knock on my bedroom door and I knew it was Elisabeth so I walked to the door and opened it wide open, e

"Are you crazy?" Elisabeth shouted as the smile on my face got smaller the more I was looking at her angry face that had gone pink."Well hello to you too, Elisabeth," I grumbled as I put my hand down, deflated that my only friend wasn't looking very pleased with me, "I missed yo-""Sarafina, what were you thinking?" She snapped as the door slammed closed behind her and all of the curtains in the room covered the opened windows, leaving both she and I in the dark as she flew close to my face, "do you know what you are doing?""Uh, what are you talking about?" I asked her, wondering what could have made her so upset because I haven't done anything wrong."How could you tell him t

"I wasn't serious, you know that," was the first thing that I said as I entered Quentin's private office that I knew was off limits but I needed to talk to him. "I didn't mean it," I paused and I watched as he looked up from whatever he was reading, and raised an eyebrow."What are you-""I was just...I was just testing the waters," I used the words I'd practiced that I'd have to say in front of him, "Elisabeth gave me a whole earful about what I did, and I realised that I don't want to break apart your family, no matter how different it is. So, yeah," I concluded, nodding my head and wiping my hands on the jeans that I was wearing before I turned to leave."Sarafina, wait," I heard him say and the commanding tone caused shivers to go down my

"This is not going to work, this is not going to work," I kept muttering to myself under my breath as I tried to quiet my racing heart. I looked behind me to make sure that I wasn't being suspected as I walked around the grounds.I didn't have Elisabeth by my side today. I'd told her that I wanted to get some air alone and I know she was giving me the space and privacy that I needed. But I realised last night that I needed to leave.I came here with nothing and I was going to leave with nothing. All that I had on was the clothes that I was wearing, which was a pair of black leggings, a black tank top and a cropped track top from Adidas.I have to just try and move with this cast, no matter how difficult it is because I'm desperate to run away

"Quentin, are you serious?" Brigitte complained as she walked into my office and switched on the lights. I groaned, shutting my eyes tightly at the sudden intrusion of intense light. She began walking around the room, opening all of the windows and curtains and I grumbled under my breath as I poured myself some more whisky to drink away."You've been drinking all night and all morning," she said sternly to me as she took away my bottle of expensive custom made whisky and if it was any other time I would've grabbed it back from her and instructed her to leave but I was exhausted, drunk and hurt."You're an absolute mess, Quentin," she scolded as she started tidying up around the room before she stood in front of my desk and looked down at me. I put my head down on the table, not caring about anything at

Asa and her nan were more than wonderful. Even though I walked through the front door as a stranger, her nan treated me like I was her own blood, hugging me and giving me a kiss while rushing to make me some tea and forcing Asa to get me a blanket and warm clothes."Are you feeling warm enough, child?" She asked me as I wrapped my hands tighter around my mug of tea that I appreciated more now than ever.I smiled shyly at her and nodded my head. She was sitting across from me on the other sofa as she sat all curled up in her thick blanket with cushions all around her. "Yes, I am, thank you for everything, nan," I said to her. She heavily insisted I call her nan.She smiled widely at me, coughing into her hand and apologizing profusely, "I'm sor

I grit my teeth and froze in the middle of the kitchen as I heard Asa begin to mumble loudly. I turned around slowly, my eyes having already adjusted to the dark as I stared at her to see if she was awake and a million things started to run through my mind as I thought about an excuse I'd have to give, if she woke up and caught me right now.I'll use the "I needed some water" or "I was looking for the bathroom" and hope I'll get away with it. I had changed out of my clothes when I just arrived and got dressed in Asa's warm pyjamas that I was still wearing at the moment with no shoes.Seeing that she was still asleep, I relaxed a bit as I walked around the kitchen looking for the keys to unlock the door. I found a phone right beside the old rusted kettle that I'm surprised still works and picked it up quickly

"Where are we?" I asked as I looked around the modern foreign home that I’m certain belonged to Quentin. It’s modern interior and it’s outside biophilic design made the home perfectly blend into the deep dark forest that the home was surrounded by. I could tell such a home had cost a pretty penny, but let’s be honest, it’s money that Quentin has."One of my other houses, far from others and more in the quiet countryside. I figured you needed some time away from the manor," he began as he walked into the kitchen and I watched him open the fridge and pull out two beers, "a beer?"

I woke up to the sound of birds chirping and absolute bliss. Everything just seemed so peaceful that I'd forgotten where I was and why I was here. The sheets around me were comfortable and soft and they were making me feel warm and fuzzy. I felt like I was sleeping on a cloud.I rubbed my eyes as I sat up and looked around the bedroom, seeing that I was alone. I covered a yawn and stood up slowly, running my hands through my hair to tame the mess and walked around the bed to the bathroom.I looked at myself in the mirror before I leaned down and splashed some water on my face before I found what I hoped to be a brand new toothbrush and brushed my teeth. I wet my hands a bit and ran them through my hair before I walked out of the bathroom and out of the bedroom.

"You really made her bow down to you?" Elisabeth asked me with wide eyes as I struggled to keep the proud smirk off my face as I bit my bottom lip and stretched my arms from the position that I was laying in.The tea party with the wives had ended a few hours ago and I was relaxing with Elisabeth as I told her what happened and at first, she was giggling when I told her about how the wives all started fighting until I got to the part where I made Katherine bow down to me.I didn't think I had it in me to do such a thing and I'd be lying if I said that I had planned on doing that. I didn't plan on standing up and putting their wives in their place which was clearly all the way down there compared to me and I most definitely didn't plan on making Katherine bow at my feet but I'd be lying if I said it didn't feel good.

"Are you ready?" Elisabeth asked me as she magically appeared in front of me while I was observing myself in the mirror. Some other women would spend the 24 hours before their wedding by going out with friends, having a bachelorette party and reflecting back on their single days; but I am not like other women. The day before my wedding will not be spent with my closest friends and half naked men with bulging crotches and tight underwear accompanied by strip poles rather, it will be spent with my future husband's eight other wives.I'm attending their infamous tea party. I remember the disaster the previous one had been and I hope that I don't have to witness the same thing but more importantly I hope I'm not the one they all turn their fiery gaze on. I don't think I can fight eight she wolves. Matter of fact, I know that I can't fight them.

"I can't believe you cut your hair," Quentin's English accent was thickly coated in shock as he ran his hand over my new hair and I slapped his hand away."Stop it," I scolded him but he was still looking at me in shock."I thought you were going to put in hair extensions or a weave," he told me as I glared at him."Are you saying that I look ugly?" I snapped at him but he quickly shook his head."You're incapable of ever looking ugly, Sarafina. I just wasn't expecting you to cut your hair. You look astonishingly beautiful, perhaps the most beautiful and bare I've ever seen you."I wasn't expecting to cut my hair either. When Quentin brought m

What use was crying and moping going to be? There was only so many times I could cry about the situation but it was permanent and there was nothing that I could do about it. Quentin would not let them die and I shouldn't want them to die just for my own selfish needs.I chose him over my own mother, I chose him over death and what I hope had been paradise. I had to stick with him now and there was no going back.I woke up before the break of dawn and took a much needed shower. I needed to scrub myself clean because it had been days since I stepp

The bedroom door banged open and my mother came charging in, "you know what, Sarafina, I can't do this!" my mother exclaimed as she ripped the sheets off my body and I just looked at her.Quentin had carried me from the balcony and laid me on the bed before covering me with the sheets as he cleaned around the room and I finally rested after what felt like years.I hadn't seen my mother this week because I didn't want to face her and I guess she gave me that space or Elisabeth has been holding her back."I can't just sit back and watch you live like this," my mother snapped at me but her angry tone was only laced with heartbreak.

I would do anything to make her happy. I'd put my life on the line without a second thought if that is what made her happy but no matter how much I loved and cared for her, I couldn't let my children grow up without their biological mothers. I care for my children and I don't want to take their mothers away from them. It would be the most foul and selfish thing that I could do and I know that Sarafina understands this but it is difficult to wrap her head around the fact that the only way to save them would be for me to create that mate bond again.I had promised myself that I would never hurt her again when she had been laying there with no heart beat and just a pale sunken in face after I had prayed for her to come back to me and when she opened her eyes I promised myself and the moon goddess that I would never be the reason behind her tears of pain and I'd kill anyone who dare

I thought I knew what I was getting into but now it's pretty obvious that I was in way over my head. Once again, my mother did know best. She was right when she said love just wasn't enough. At this point, I wasn't feeling very loved or needed or...anything at all. If anything it felt like my heart was breaking and I tried so hard to keep a straight face on as I stood beside Quentin. Brigitte and Florence were across us. Both of them looked sickly pale and they looked horrible.I felt bad for them and sorry for them, they were dying for crying out loud and the evidence was all over their form but I just didn't want them marrying Quentin.I can't believe he'd do this to me...is it wrong of me to want him all to myself?

I know understood why Katherine hated me. Even though it hadn't been my fault, the man that she loved, found someone else. I couldn't even find the strength to stand from the floor and I don't know how my mother knew or found out that something was wrong with me but when she came into the room, pleading with me from the other side of the door to let her in, I realized how glad I was that I had her here with me.I didn't even have the energy to put on any clothes. My mother came into the room and immediately covered me with one of the many robes in the room. After that, she sat on the floor with me and cradled me in her arms like I was baby as I sobbed into her chest.I welcomed the comfort that she provided me, sobbing uncontro

"Good morning, Sarafina," I heard his deep voice croak into my ear as he kissed my forehead and I opened my eyes with a grin on my face.I let go of the pillow that I was holding onto that smelled like him because I couldn't sleep at night without his body right next to mine, "Quentin, baby," I squealed in excitement, all trace of exhaustion gone from my system as I wrapped my arms around his neck and forced his body to fall onto mine, "I missed you," I cried into his neck, burying my nose deep into his flesh and inhaling as much of him as possible."I missed you too, baby," he coaxed me gently, running his fingers along the sides of my waist, tickling the naked flesh and causing goosebumps to appear on my arms "I'm sorry that
