OLIVIA’S P.O.V
“Alexis, I don’t think that I can make it any longer. Today is the third day without any food or water. I am weak, I am starving, my baby is starving. I’m surprised that I even made it this far” I spoke to my wolf as I lay on the floor, I didn’t have the energy to move. “Hang in there Olivia. Cariso doesn’t want you dead, if he did then he would have killed you three days ago but instead, he choose to punish you. Don’t worry, we would be free soon. He knows that you cannot survive longer than three days, so he should release you today. Just be patient, don’t give up and remember never to beg! You are stronger than you think” Alexis encouraged me. “Alexis…you were right someone is opening the door,” I said, using my hands to support myself into a sitting position so that I can see better and I wouldn’t look mercifully weak. “Good…shush now, they must not know
OLIVIA’S P.O.V“Sir Cariso asked that you change into these?” one of the housekeepers brought in an orange garment folded neatly. Now they just enter my room, unlike before when they use to knock before they entered…I guess now they know that I am a prisoner here just like them and they don’t have to give me that respect like they did before. I took garment from her and held it up as it opened into a beautiful dress. “He wants me to have dinner with him, doesn’t he?” I asked, rolling my eyes. “You should get changed quickly, in a few minutes two of the guards will come to escort you down to the dining room” she said, before leaving, ignoring how I felt.“I can’t believe the arrogance of this man! He locked me up in darkness for 3 days, without a plate of food or even a glass of water. Yet, he still wants me to have dinner with him? Does he not have any self-pride or dignity? He is absolutely
AUSTIN’S P.O.V“A girl named Dawn contacted me. She said that she is friends with Olivia” Keith came into my office with this news. “Dawn? I think I heard Olivia mention something about a Dawn Summer’s. They were good friends back in New York, if I remember correctly” I said, thinking hard. “What did she want? Does she know where Olivia is?” I snapped out of my thoughts and asked Keith. “She knows that Olivia is missing and she wants to help find her. She said that they have been best friends from a very young age and she would be able to assist us” Keith explained. “Hmmmm…interesting…very interesting…how did she contact you?” I asked. “She called” Keith answered, looking at me strangely. I could tell that he didn’t yet know what I was thinking but he did know that I was getting somewhere with my thoughts and questions. “How did she get your number?” I as
OLIVIA’S P.O.V“Good morning Olivia, guess what… I have your test results” Cariso said, gleaming in front of the bed that I was tied up on. I remained quite as he pulled out a page from a brown A4 envelope. “Hmmmm, that is very interesting” his eyebrows creased as read the results. “Well, Congratulations Olivia. It says here that you are pregnant!!! Oh my word, this is such great news!!! In fact this is the best news that I have got today!!!” he did a little psycho happy dance. “Why are you so happy?” I asked, confused about how my pregnancy would affect him, besides the fact that the situation got more delicate. “Wait! You don’t look as excited as I am! You knew about this didn’t you? You knew this whole time and that is why you didn’t want the doctor here! So tell me, my dear darling Olivia, who is the father?” he asked, a big smile still on his face, he seemed proud of himself as if
AUSTIN’S P.O.V .“The girl is here” Keith said, joining me for breakfast. “Which girl? Where?” I asked, looking at him with the most confused look on my face. “Dawn summers. We spoke about it two days ago!” he said, my half buttered toast in my hand as I looked at him just as confused as I was before he provided me with extra information. “The girl who said that she was Olivia’s best friend and wants to help us find her! The girl that wanted to come and stay at Stermyer! The girl that you were so suspicious about! The one that you think is either working for dad or Cariso” Keith half shouted in frustration. “Oh that girl. The one that called you” I suddenly remembered . “Yesss!!! That one! Oh my word Austin, what is going on with you?” Keith asked. “Er, not much except that my elder brother hates me and my mate got so scared of me that she ran away and then possibly got kidna
OLIVIA’S P.O.VIt’s a week until my birthday and I am still here. Slowly I am losing sight of hope. I don’t know what to do or how to break free from these chains. There is no one to help me and I myself feel helpless.“Don’t give up Olivia, Austin will come” I heard Alexis say. “How do you know that?” I asked. “I have faith in our mate and you should too” She answered. “I hope that you are right Alexis, if not then you know what needs to happen,” I said, referring to the plan that I discussed with her a few days ago.“Taking to your wolf, are you?” Cariso walked in, catching me off guard. “No, my wolf is too weak to talk. I was talking to myself, maybe soon my insanity levels will reach yours” I said. “How feisty? Just like your mother was” he laughed at me. “You still speak about her, reminiscing over the past? No, Cariso you are living in it. You
AUSTIN’S P.O.V“What’s bothering you?” my mother asked, watching as I just played around with my dinner instead of eating it. “Oh nothing, I’m just not very hungry,” I said. “Would you kindly excuse me?” I put my fork down and woke up from my chair. “No Austin! You are my son and I know that something is bothering you. Now you can choose to be stubborn and keep it to yourself or you can share your troubles with your brother and me, relieving yourself a bit. But remember if you choose the former rather than the latter, you wouldn’t be the only one not having dinner tonight but both you and I would be going to sleep on an empty stomach. So you choose Austin…” she said sternly, I chuckled a little seeing how she was treating me like a little child once again. “Mum please” I pleaded with her to leave me alone. “Don’t ‘mum please’ me, just tell me what’s wrong&r
OLIVIA’S P.O.VToday is the day that I was born, normally it was celebrated every year without fail. The year that my mum died, my dad threw me the biggest celebration with a firework display that could be seen throughout New York, he said that my mum would be watching from above and she would be very disappointed if he didn’t do anything special but deep down I knew that he was just doing it so I don’t miss her on my special day.However this is the year when that tradition breaks. My dad is no longer with me to throw a big grand ball and today might just be the day that I take my last breath like I took my first 22 years ago. My heart breaks most for the poor baby that I am carrying inside me, my baby wouldn’t even get to take his first breath or see the world. I know that he has life, I can feel him moving inside me and kicking every now and then…he deserves to live! He deserves a chance! Unfortunately I am not in any position to make
OLIVIA’S P.O.VWearing a pure white dress, I was escorted outside in chains. Six guards walked with me, two behind, two beside and two in front. There where people standing on either side, forming a guard of honour as I was taken towards a stone table, they were dressed in red robes and I assume that they are all Cariso’s pack members. Upon hearing the beating of the drums, fear gripped my heart but I did not flinch, I could feel the vibration of the steady fierce rhythm on the ground that I walked on. I held my head up high, as I tried to put up a brave front but on the inside all I wanted to do was run. However I knew that there was no one to help me right now and if I made a move then I would only be dragged back here, squealing and showing weakness, I wasn’t going to let myself be embarrassed like that…if I had to die tonight I would die full of pride!!! After all I, I still remember who I am, I am the granddaughter of an alpha! I am the daughter
