BRENDA'S POVI forgot how to breathe for over 5 seconds and my heart sank to the floor wondering if what I had really heard was just my ears deceiving me or actually the truth.Dr Drake had sold me over to the black market?but that was not our arrangement.Why was he doing this to me?“ Dr Drake,could not do something like that to me you are lying...” I said to the man before me my heart was pounding so hard it was as if he was going to break through my ribs at that moment and I was breathing heavily as well.“Then would you like to see Doctor Drake and confirm yourself? We can have him here in a few minutes. I want you to say yes immediately but the word was stuck in my throat, I gulped up a mouth full of spit and then nodded.The man turned over to his colleagues behind him and then nodded and one of them groaned." Is it really necessary why are we even listening to her?”“Her denial is far too amusing, so I would like to entertain a little bit to get Drake here."One of them left t
THOMAS POV“Thomas, that was such a nice flight, though I feel that it would be better if we sat next to each other.”The moment we got down from the plane, Jessica was already running after me like a lost puppy and her mouth was already moving like a broken tap gushing out water. If only she was a bit more quiet then this would have been far more bearable.But the woman talked so much that she got tired of hearing her squeaky annoying voice because I was certainly fed up with it at this point. Now to the next phase of my mission I will dump her in The vacation resorts and then move on to find my mate.But I had to do it in a way that was not suspicious and would not leave her showing an unnecessary alarm. They would then question me on what was so important that I didn't do my mother's funeral properly. The resort was quite lovely, and if things were the way they were supposed to be it would have been nice to come to a place like this with Brenda instead I was sharing this moment wit
” My Prince, I've noticed there has been something on your mind since we came to this place...“She was fond of actually cutting into my words like this but this was actually the most considerate thing that she had actually said since I met her.” I don't think it's something you can help me with, there is no need to bother.“She shook her head.” My prince if it is for you I will see whatever I can do after all that I got you away from those nagging elders I'm sure I can help you with other things as well...“She was really trying her hardest to prove herself to me, could I somehow use her again? But this was something that was basically a illegal, I could not tell her that I was going there because of my mate and she might bring all necessary attention once again if I just tell her that I'm going there to *buy* something.No, she would not be able to do that. There was no need to risk everything, trusting that she would help me, that meant that I had to get her out of my way.” Oh r
BRENDA'S POVWhen the door opened and the person behind it was the doctor, I held my heart in my hand as I looked at him .He came over to me with a smile on his face that I felt like punching right out of his face on the spot.“Doctor Drake you better start telling me what plan you have right now, what would you sell me to the dark market?”He placed his hand on my shaking shoulder, his smile never leaving his face and my fingers trembled in a fist.“I didn't want to explain this part of the plan to you before because I knew that you would not be able to understand...''He was speaking so calmly as if he hadn't given me to some people who wouldn't mind having me butchered like an animal.“Do you know what these people plan to do with me? Do you?!"I yelled at him my chest rising and falling like a drum that was being beaten and my blood continued to boil with fury and how passive he was acting right now.”I said that I would be with you, how could you-"He interrupted me by placing a fi
BRENDA'S POVI got up again, I could not allow it to go down like this. If I was going to be taken down I wasn't going to go lying around.After going through the painful realization that I couldn't stand against it again literally I began to pull on the chain on my hand with full force.I pulled until it began to dig into my skin and grind my flesh till the skin began to peel and there was rge feel of blood on the metal.I kept doing this until two of the men that had come to see me before came and saw what was happening when I saw them. I had already been struggling so much that my body shifted in the bed and I fell on the floor.“What are you doing?Do you know that the longer it takes for you to heal the harder it will be for us to sell you off!" One of them yelled and then the other just growled at my body that was sprawled on the floor.”Why don't we just cut her up already? honestly she looks far too damaged to fetch a good price...“It was the way they talked about me as if I wa
THOMAS POV“Baby I'm already in your bedroom where are you right now?”My heart was keeping steady beats as she said that, I could even hear the shuffling of bed sheets and there was this girl in my room and even th-Ugh, I don't even know why I even allowed anything she did to be surprising at all. She had no basic sense of shame that most people had.“I went out on a stroll...”“a stroll this early in the morning?”“yes it's true...” I confirmed but then I heard the sound that sounded like fingers that were running through a chalkboard and then I realized after a while that that was actually her chuckling.“You think that you have me fooled, I know what exactly is happening,” my heart literally skipped a bit when she said that and I forgot how to breathe for a few seconds.“You have missed me so much that you decided to go outside so you went outside to look for a way to get me out of your mind...”I wondered if this was some kind of joke she could not be serious right then again I
THOMAS POV“This woman is really one of a kind, how can somebody be so shameless about throwing away their body?"I thought to myself as I threw off the top of my hoodie so that I could get some air, waking up my head to the back and combining it with my fingers.I pulled down my nose mask beating heavily, sweat gradually dripping down my forehead as my chest continued to rise and fall. This meant that I would have to take the stairs. This was so exhausting but Brenda was probably waiting for me now.I had been researching into the Dark market more after I will sure that that talk to her taking her there and the more I learnt about them the more my heart began to waste with and the fact that the Nobles were actually trying their best to make sure that such a terrible place was still being supported and held up.” Brenda, please stay strong, I'm coming for you soon...“I mumbled to myself what I had found out about that place was far too terrible to even think about the dark market was
BRENDA POVI crossed my legs together, trying to stay calm because I did not know what to do with the fact that I could move my limbs again but the fact that I didn't know how that had come about.“Tell me, Stacy, how did you end up here as well?"Her eyes fell and they looked so heavy with tears that I had to lean over and pat her on her back. She quickly brushed them off and wore a warm smile on her face.How could she smile so brightly despite all that had happened to her, at least bi could look at the distant memory of myself living as the Alpha's daughter but this poor thing had been a maid from birth from a family of servants.I was of course not trying to mock her but I was feeling sorry for her from the bottom of my heart, but I didn't know that my heart was about to be even more shattered.”My story, Brenda is just like the story of many other girls here... it's that horrible Beta that put us all in this place...“”The Beta?" I asked with a cocked eyebrow as I looked at her l
THOMAS POV"It has not gotten to the point where you seem to be screaming at me, I am in a better position to be screaming at you, if there is anyone to be screaming at, it is definitely going to be me and not you." She said to him with a very angry tone, the fact that he shouted at her really went to her."Ok I am sorry! You know I am not always like this, the reason why I Shouted at you was because I felt that it was the only way I could make you calm down, you know that I am not always like this? " He explains to her the reason why he acted and shouted at her that way."Ok, now that you've gotten the best part of me it isn't just wise for you to leave like that, at least give me an explanation for my dilemma." I said to him at the bikini bootcamp it seems like he's about to tell her something she doesn't know.I never wanted to tell you this because I know you will take it the wrong way, I wanted you to just figure it out yourself rather than me telling it to you, I know and I unde
JESSICA POV"I hope it isn't what I'm thinking, I hope you haven't started developing feelings for her?" I haave been as he couldn't look at her straight in the eye,He stared at the ground as he placed his hands in his pocket."What do you mean by that? what are you thinking?" He asked her trying to cover everything up, he doesn't want her to move into the aspect, he knows that if she continues pressuring him he could let the secret out from his mouth."That's what I'm talking about, exactly what I've been trying to say?" She said to him as she pointed to his eyes, in his chest, coming very close to him, I'm talking directly into his mouth."I can see it in your eyes, you're hiding something, you're having something to do with her and you are keeping it a secret from me?" She said to him as he gave her an uncertain reaction, he tried his best stronging his face, so that she would not be able to be true intentions by observing his facial reactions."Why are you disturbing yourself? wh
THOMAS POVWhile I was telling her the story she couldn't stop laughing. She laughed so hard that I felt some kind of relief, I always hate myself for what I made her go through so seeing her laugh this hard maee me very happy."And that was how the whole thing ended." I said to her when I was done with the story. Brenda started coughing because of how hard she laughed. I stood up immediately and rushed downstairs to get her water. The moment I got back to the room I handed the water back to her."Thank you." She said to me with a smile on her face when I handed the water to her. She drank the water, when she was done she stopped coughing."That was a very nice one, he thinks he is smart? He met the best Alpha and prince any pack will want to have." When she said this I was calm.I remembered the day this case ended Jessica didn't tell me anything instead she praised just the Alpha.It's been a while since I got such accolades from a person. Everything Brenda does makes me love her the
THOMAS POVI decided to go into Brenda's room so we can talk because ever since she got out we have not been able to talk very well.I also want to inform her about Jessica and how dangerous she can be so that she will be careful around her."This is so awkward." I said to myself when Brenda asked what I was doing in her room. She looked really upset and I was wondering if it's my presence that's making her so upset or there is another reason."Why do you look so upset?" I asked her so I'll know if I am the cause of her angry mood or something else is making her unhappy."Jessica was here a few minutes ago." Brenda said to me with a sad look on her face I was now sure of the reason why she was frowning when I walked into the room."What did she say to you?" I asked, so that I can be sure of what she said to her and know what to tell Brenda.Brenda was quiet; she did not reply to me the moment I asked a question. She was acting as if what Jessica told her is something that is so annoyin
BRENDA'S POVI was shocked when I realised me Thomas asked them to release me from the cell.It was something I never expected because I've already given up on him trying to save me from the mess I was going through, and I was patiently waiting for them to sell me to any Park that suits them.On getting released I heard that Thomas has already announced Jessica to be his mate. I don't know if I was heartbroken but I knew I wasn't happy when I heard the news, then I realised that was why he left me in the cell all these while.It is still like a dream to me but I have no other choice than to accept it and thank him for finally releasing me from the cell.He called me to his room earlier telling me that he has to pretend that he has feelings for me in front of Jessica, so that she can be brought back to her senses so I'm not happy with the idea but at least it will give me the opportunity to see him everyday."I am so confused." I said to myself, as I was thinking if what he was doing i
THOMAS POVI am only trying to bring Jessica back to her senses but I don’t know if I am doing the right thing anymore because the way she reacted after seeing Brenda I might be cooking a very big trouble while trying to set her straight.Though I have a feeling that after seeing Brenda she will be more interested in doing things that’ll please me and stop thinking of how to eliminate and punish Brenda.“I just hope I’m not making a mistake.” I said to myself while I was standing outside and continued walking out of the corridor.The moment I got to the sitting room I saw Brenda standing. She looked really beautiful after cleaning up herself and she even wore the dress I gave to her.I walked closer to her and unknowingly a smile escaped my lips.“You look clean now.” I said to her trying not to praise her beauty so it’ll not cause trouble between Jessica and I.Brenda lowered her head without a smile. “Thank you.” She said to me with her head low.“Have you eaten anything?” I asked h
JESSICA’S POV“So why are you here?” Mira asked me with a kind of look that didn’t seem nice. I just tried to overlook it so that I don’t start making up things in my head.I turned to look at her trying to figure out the reply I will give to her.“I need your help.” The moment I said this she sighed like she knew I was actually in her house because I needed her help.“You never came to see me all these months and now you are here to seek my help?” Mira said to me and started laughing, I wasn’t expecting her laughter so I was wondering why she is laughing all of a sudden instead of a sudden when I just said something that seems urgent to me.“Please I want you to…”“I can’t help you.” Mira said to me without hesitating. It felt like a needle pierced through my heart when I heard what she said, she sounded like she really meant what she was saying.“What are you saying? I’m your best friend and I need your help.” I said to her trying to emotionally blackmail her, but I have forgotten t
Writer’s POVJessica couldn’t believe her ears she was wondering if what Thomas said is true or he is just pulling her legs. She stood up from where she was sitting and walked to the front of Thomas.“You know I hate jokes, please don’t joke with me like that.” Jessica said to Thomas still trying to believe Thomas was lying to her. She looked at his face after talking patiently waiting to hear that he is actually joking with her.“I told you already I am not joking.” Thomas said to her trying to prove to her that he is really not joking with her. Jessica was shocked she was wondering what’s going on and why Thomas was suddenly trying to release Brenda.“What’s wrong? Why do you want to release her? She needs to be sold.” Jessica said to Thomas in a rather low tone. Thomas knew that Jessica feels threatened by the presence of Brenda so this is his only way of bringing Jessica back to her senses.“I want her here, and I have every right to release her.” Thomas said to Jessica in an almo
THOMAS POVThe moment I wanted to go close to the prison take a closer look at her I noticed she was standing from where she is sitting.I moved back immediately and watched her from afar. She walked forward and from the way she looked it’s obvious she was in deep thought.“Am I really going to be sold to another pack and be there as an Omega?” Brenda asked hersekf while she was in deep thoughts. She remembered how the others were sold and the fear of her being sold one day gripped her.“god please bring someone to save me from here.” Brenda said as a prayer, then she noticed the mosquitoes were already too much where she was standing, she moved back immediately and sat down where she was sitting earlier.I couldn’t watch her anymore in such situation so I had to walk away. What bothered me the most is the reason why she was taken to such dirty room, that particular place has been abandoned for a very long time.I walked back to the room. I opened the door slowly so that if I see Jess
