OLIVIA’S P.O.V
I sat in bed and my mind began to wonder. A lot of things about Marc did not make any sense. Firstly as soon as he heard that I am the daughter of Malinda and Thomas nightingale he wanted me to stay. Secondly, he said that both my parents are his close friends yet he described my mother with such beauty as if he was in love with her at one stage…if he was really both of my parent's friends then he would have respected the friendship between my father and himself and spoke more about my father rather than describing my mother so intricately. Thirdly, he said that he had met me when I was a baby yet he didn’t even know what my name started with.
I am grateful that Marc saved my life but there is something telling me that he is not to be trusted!
Besides that this place feels so familiar, I’ve never been here before but it really feels like I have…it feels like home like I belong here! I feel so overwhelmed
OLIVIA’S P.O.V‘“Olivia” I heard a voice call me in the darkness. I couldn’t see a thing but I knew that someone was with me yet I still felt safe. “Olivia” I heard the voice again. “Who are you? Where are you?” I asked. “I am inside of you! You need to let me out! You are in danger!!!” the voice said, this time HER words scared me. “What do you mean that you are inside me? How do I let you out?” I asked. “Let me out Olivia!” the voice yelled. “but how?” I asked again. “OLIVIA!!!” I heard the woman scream’I woke up drenched in sweat and panting. Looking at the clock by the nightstand I saw that it was a few hours till morning. I got out of bed and poured myself a glass of water. I stood by the window sill and looked out at the empty field. My dream was different this time, but it always meant something in the past so there is no doubt that it means s
AUSTIN’S P.O.VI rested my eyes for a bit while on our private jet as we flew from Stermyer to New York. “Wake up,” Keith said, shaking me. “I haven’t slept for days. Why are you waking me up? Have we landed as yet?” I asked. “No, not yet,” he said, looking down at a few papers that he had in his hand. “Are we about to land?” I asked him, a bit annoyed. “Nope…we still have a few hours before we land,” he said. “Then why did you wake me up???” I asked, really annoyed with him. “To run our plan with you,” he said and I sat up straight, being attentive. “Okay, go for it” I permitted him. “As soon as we land we are going to go to the detective's office, I’ve made arrangements with the head detective so that we can have a look at all of the evidence that was found at the crime scene. I also made arrangements with an estate agent so that we can go snoop aro
AUSTIN’S P.O.VKeith and I stayed at the house that I just bought and all I could think of was Olivia. We spent the entire night going through everything and looking for some sort of evidence.“Keith, do you think that the killer broke in, or did Olivia’s father open the front door and let him in?” I asked, wondering as I looked at the door. “I don’t know but it would be nice to find out because if he did not make a forced entry then that must mean that he most probably is known to the family,” Keith said. “Yes, if we can figure that out then that would narrow down our search,” I said and Keith and I started inspecting all the entries. “Have you found anything?” Keith shouted from upstairs. “No, nothing at all. You?” I shouted back as I inspected the downstairs. “Nope,” he said, coming back down the stairs. “This must mean that the killer was allowed inside,” Keith sai
OLIVIA’S P.O.VI missed Austin like the desert misses the rain. I can’t stop thinking about him and my heart is broken. I wonder if he is out there looking for me or maybe he has decided to move on. I should have thought before I ran off, I would have rather stayed there in fear than go through all of the pain that I am currently experiencing.“Come in” I called out, hearing a knock on the door. “Hi, Olivia” Cariso said, poking his heading through the small opening of the door. “Cariso, Hi,” I said, jumping up from my sitting position. “Are you busy Liv?” he asked, a warm smile worn on his face. How could I think that this man could be evil when his smile and his eyes are so kind to me, let’s not forget he took me in when he found me dying on the icy snow ground. Humans are looked down upon in the wolf world yet he still saved my life and that too was done before he even knew who I was, so technically he
OLIVIA’S P.O.VMy nightmares have changed into dreams but they are just as reoccurring as before. The same dream over and over again. However that’s the least of my problems, this morning I woke up feeling absolutely ill, and then I spent half an hour in the bathroom vomiting my guts out.At first, I thought that it must have been something that I ate, then I thought that it could actually be all of the stress that I have been going through recently, finally, I realized that I haven’t menstruated this month. Running to check my calendar, I saw that I was in fact 2 weeks late. I’ve never been late before… this could only mean one thing.‘Why now? Gosh…what am I going to do now?’ I held my head and sighed in frustration. I can’t go back to Austin until I find out the truth of what happened to my family and I know that it is somehow connected to this place. How can I leave when I am so close to the truth that
OLIVIA’S P.O.VOnce again I was in the darkness with the same voice that I’ve been hearing over the past few days, calling me and telling me that I need to let her out. She is constantly telling me that I shouldn’t be afraid and that she is here to protect me but she doesn’t tell me how to let her free or who she is. Under normal circumstances, I would have thought that it’s all in my head caused because of stress and exhaustion, but these are not normal circumstances.I woke up in the middle of the night, like I did every other night, covered in my sweat and panting heavily. I wish I knew what these dreams meant, could it possibly be related to my baby since I have only been having these dreams since I fell pregnant. Getting out of bed I suddenly felt extremely thirsty. Going to pour me a glass of water, I was disappointed to find the jug empty. I put on a gown and bedroom slippers before heading downstairs to refill my jug. I was pleased
OLIVIA’S P.O.VToday was another day that I spent alone since Cariso is gone out. I need to use this opportunity to investigate further, there is so much that I need to find out. I need to find out who Cariso really is, I need to find out more about my past, I need to find out what are his intentions regarding me and lastly, I need to find a way out of here.I sneaked around the mansion, exploring each and every floor without being seen. I have to admit that it was kind of fun, but scary at the same time. It kind of reminded me of high school when Dawn and I use to sneak out of class to go to the mall, I was also a naughty spoilt girl, but I never made anyone feel less or showed off. However this was not high school and my father is no longer around to get me out of trouble, neither is this kind of trouble a simple sitting down in the principles office. Austin was dangerous but he looked very sane, Cariso looks dangerous and insane, I don’t want to find out
AUSTIN’S P.O.VIt was a rushed morning as we packed our belongings and headed for the airport. We came all this way, flying for hours only to find a clue that the answers we are looking for are in Europe.“You look lost in your thoughts Austin. Is everything okay? What’s going on in that head of yours?” Keith asked, sitting opposite me on our private jet. “It’s just so much to deal with. The last time we sat in this jet was when we left from New York to go back home. It was Olivia, Jake, you and me. We were happy…well except for Olivia but she was happy afterward. We were together and nothing was missing. But look at us now Keith, there are only 2 of us. My heart is split, Keith. I haven’t had my heart broken before and I don’t know how to deal with it. I go through my days thinking that everything will be okay but at night when my sleep breaks and there is enough silence to listen to my heart, that is when I can h
