DENVER'S P.O.VI sat alone in my office, deliberately isolating myself from any disturbances. But tried as I might, I couldn't shake the cloud of thoughts that kept roaming in my mind. The image of Skylar and Dimitri locking lips replayed in my head, taunting me relentlessly. I couldn't help but feel a tight knot of jealousy and envy as I watched them embrace each other.It pained me to witness their heartfelt confession of love, and their promises to stand by each other no matter what, regardless of the circumstances.It was an inexplicable feeling for me. I found myself struggling in between emotions, unable to fully comprehend why their moments together stirred such strong emotions within me. I couldn't deny that their connection felt genuine, their love for each other shining through every word they spoke and every action they made.I had so much tried to care less about her and everything she does. I thought their meeting was just a minor meeting like she had said, it didn't oc
SKYLAR'S P.O.VTHE D-Day has finally come, Jennifer will be celebrating her birthday today. Yeah, that has called for jubilation to almost everyone in the pack house, but definitely not to me.While the other maids were working the ceremonial hall where the celebration will be held, I was busily working my ass, helping Jennifer with her dressing and makeup.The whole preparation had started early in the morning and I had barely closed my eyes. The one minute I had thought I'd finally get a good night sleep, Mrs Marie had to wake me up.Urrgh!I helped her to do and undo her hair. She had picked a specific outfit, but then had to change her mind for some reasons best known to her.Now, we're working on her makeup, and I hope she doesn't scream from the little monstrous job I had done on her face. However, it turned out that I really did a good job on her face.Then she brought out a box from the wardrobe. She opened it, revealing a silver necklace in it. She picked it out, giving it to
DENVER'S P.O.VI was curious about Jennifer's whereabouts knowing it's been close to an hour since she had left my side. I wanted to be sure she was safe with the people around her.However, as soon as I got to the swimming pool side, I noticed a sudden gathering. The laughter of the crowd echoed, leaving me to wonder if something had actually gone wrong.I was concerned if Jennifer had gotten into trouble or something. I pushed my way into the crowd, then I heard someone say; "Isn't that the Alpha's maidservant?"I wanted to see for myself what was going on. And seeing I was coming, they made way for me. I saw her. She was struggling for life, fighting to get away from the water. And it was so disappointing that no one attempted to save her.I looked over at Jennifer's direction, she and her friends were laughing, making fun of her despite knowing the gravity of the situation. I dived in, swimming from behind her. Before I could reach her, she had given up, and her body slowly sank.
JENNIFER'S P.O.V"Arrgh!"I screamed."Why? Why does she always have to come into pictures each time I make a step ahead. One little step from her and she is on top!" I cried.Aunt Kate pulled me into her arms, cuddling me right but that wasn't enough to compare the fact that Denver had the guts to yell at me all because of that bitch.As if that wasn't enough, he had to dismiss my occasion, ending my fun in a blink of an eye. "She is just a devil that needs to be eliminated." I cursed, tears streaming down my cheeks. "Aunt Kate, we must do something. We have to. I won't let her take Denver away from me.""Calm down, darling. It seems you have forgotten who is standing with you. I am his aunt, and I stand as a mother to him. You don't have to worry, I will talk to him. And when I do, he will have no choice but to do as I say." She reassured me.I felt a bit relieved by her words. "Just make sure she is out of the picture at all costs.""You don't have to worry, sweetheart, Aunt Kate g
SKYLAR'S POVTHE last thing I remembered was screaming for help, the rest of the story was all blur.********************I jerked up with one thing in mind. Death. I fear that word more than I fear man, seeing myself in that state for a second felt more like a nightmare.Glaring around the room I caught a glimpse of doctor James. Just then, Roselle and Diva walked in. They had a worried look, but upon seeing me, their expression suddenly changed into a smile."You're alive!" They screamed, pulling me for a hug.I almost suffocated at how how they cuddled me. "Guys. Guys, you're gonna kill me." I said as I gasped for air.They let go, chuckling in excitement. "You're alive.""I never said I was going to die." We laughed. I looked over at doctor James, returning the smile. "Thank you."Each time I get into trouble, his face was the first I wake up to see. He was always there for me in times of need, and he never give up on me."You won't believe this." Diva started, being the gist girl
SKYLAR'S P.O.VIt's been two days since Alpha Denver has isolated himself from everyone. He barely left his office, even if he does, it's only when he has an important meeting or whenever he is going to bed.And for these few days, he spends the night in a different room and not his main bedroom. He left Jennifer to sleep alone in it. No matter Mrs Kate's effort to get him talking or make him come back to be the man he used to be, they all ended up fruitless.Nothing could change him. Jennifer on the other hand, she barely looks at me. Each morning I come to dress the room, it's either she was sleeping with tears, or she was in Mrs Kate's room. She's been acting like I never existed. Not like I don't fancy the new her – but what can I say?I sat alone in the garden. From here I could feel his depression, his sadness, and the guilt that took over his heart. For some reasons I found it difficult to hate him after everything he's done to me.I did hate him. I mean, I always hated him, b
DENVER'S P.O.VI watched her sleep like a child on her bed. I had been blind all those while to understand the truth before me. I let my hatred for her father take a toil in me, stopping me from seeing the signs, from understanding how much she does love me.I don't blame her if she has to take a week or months to forgive me. The things I have done to her was one that required a lot of time and feelings.But I promised myself never to watch her cry. I would do whatever it takes to protect her from her haters, including myself. I will make her enemies my enemies, I will kill those who wish evil against her. And I won't stop until I have every single one of them pay.I might not have realized this earlier, but she is my property, my liability and everything that matters to me. The only way to make this happen is to win her trust, and prove to her how sincere I am to do whatever it takes to make it up to her.I didn't want to leave her side, I was scared that if I had to, someone was go
SKYLAR’S P.O.VIT’S been three days since the event in Alpha Denver’s office. I tried not to think about it, nor bother about any of that. However, the longer I kept my distance from him, the more I felt hurt. I realized that I was hurting the bond, and to be frank, that wasn’t helping matters at all.I hate to admit, I did miss him. I missed his hug, those sweet voices. Each time I thought of him, the first thing that came in mind was the way he held me to himself. How comforting it was to be buried in his arms, and hearing those sincere words. Somehow, I wish that moment would happen again.However, Roselle and Diva promised to come over to my room, and it’s almost like half an hour and yet they haven’t showed up. I decided to take a shower while waiting for them. I had filled up the bathtub, then buried my body in it, leaving only my head outside the water.I was loving the cold feeling of the water against my skin, sighing heavily at the cold sensation it gave to my body.
