Life at the mansion continued to be boring, and I was slowly losing my mind. I would always be indoors, and sometimes I would hear Axel's voice coming from somewhere within the house, but I never for once saw him in my room. He just acted like I didn't exist.
One afternoon, one of the maids brought my food to me, and out of curiosity, I asked her about Axel because I had not heard his voice in the house for two days now,
"Do you know when Axel is going to come to the house again?"
She paused midway as she was pouring out some fresh juice for me, as if I had asked her a forbidden question or said something that was bad,
"I'm sorry, did I say anything that was bad? I didn't mean it like that, I just wanted to know about Axel's whereabouts, but it's okay if you don't know about it." I apologized and she shook her head.
"No. You didn't say anything terrible, Miss. It's just that I'm not used to hearing anybody other than Miss Elizabeth, call the Alpha-to-be by his real name", she explained to me and I understood perfectly what my mistake had been.
"I'm so sorry about that " I apologized again, and she looked like she wanted to say something but stopped herself in her tracks.
"Well, he hasn't been here because I overheard him telling Miss Elizabeth that he was going to be traveling soon," she told me and then bowed before leaving the room.
I felt bad at the news because he was disregarding me in every way, and it seemed like Elizabeth was the woman that he was in love with. So why did he not have children with her instead of subjecting me to this kind of torture? There were so many questions but so few answers. I pushed the questions to the back of my head and tried to force myself to eat the food because of the baby, even though I did not have any appetite. I had just taken the last spoon of the pasta that I had been served, my room door opened with a bang and in came Elizabeth and, without any form of greeting, she started speaking.
"I hope by now you must have been done with your food, because I have some work to do" she announced, and it took me a minute for her words to register in my brain. What did she mean she had some work for me to do? What type of work could I possibly do for her in my condition?
"Good afternoon," I greeted her and she rolled her eyes at my greeting, but I continued speaking, "Yes I am done eating, but what work do you want me to do for you? Because I am very tired now and would love to rest, so maybe you can tell me what you need so that I i wake up I will see if I can do it for you" I tried to reason with her, but she was not having it at all.
"You must not have heard what I said properly, so let me repeat myself just because I want to be nice today" Her voice was dripping with venom and I didn't understand why she was being so rude.
"I want you to do some work for me in the kitchen and I want it to be done right now, so you better get your ass up and follow down there so you can finish on time and then come and rest if that's what you want to do. Now get up!" She commanded, and I put my hands together and pleaded with her
"I really cannot do any work in my condition. Please get one of the maids to do whatever it is that you want for you because I feel so heavy standing up that I don't think I can even carry myself," I tried to make her see the reason why I couldn't do any work, but she did not buy it.
"So you think that I'm not aware that we have workers in this house? I am very aware of that, but I want you to be the one to do it, so get up right now and follow me" Before I could utter any other word, she had come up to me and yanked me up with my arm and I screamed at the sharp pain that shot up through my arm and ran to my spine
"Oh shut up, I haven't even started with you and you are already screaming. Someone would think that I had hit you or something," she said scornfully before she proceeded to continue to drag me by my arm, and I was helpless.
"Alright please stop, I'll follow you to the kitchen myself," I whimpered, and she smiled, a smile that sent shivers down my spine at how sinister it looked
"Now you're being a good girl. Follow me and do so quickly," she commanded, and started walking to the door and I did my best to keep up with her pace. She turned to me by the time we got to the stairs. "You're too slow for my liking," Then she grabbed me by my hand and stood dragging me down the stairs and I tried my best to match up with her pace so that I would not slip and fall and maybe put my baby at risk.
By the time we got to the foot of the staircase, my whole body was on fire and my tears were flowing freely. Why was she doing this to me when I didn't even know her? I asked myself and I thought I had whispered it to me but when she turned and looked me straight in the eyes and said
"You tried to kill me at the party, and now you're asking me what you did to me?" She scoffed. "I am going to show you that you have messed with the wrong person. Now follow me before I continue to drag you"
I realized that she had heard the question and her answer made me realize who she was. She was the woman from the ushering job that someone had framed me for poisoning her.

Vivian.I was speechless at the realization. So she was the woman who had been poisoned on the job that got me fired. She looked different from the person I saw that day, but I guess I just don't remember her face clearly.I didn't try to kill her, I wanted to tell her. I had been framed, and I was innocent, but from looking at Elizabeth's face, I knew that no matter how much I tried to explain to her, she was not going to believe me, so it was best that I kept quiet and just accepted my fate.I followed her as fast as my swollen legs could carry me and when we got to the kitchen, she gestured to the counters and the sinks. "I want you to clean all these places and I want them sparkling clean" She looked me up and down as I tried to steady my breathing. "Oh stop acting like you ran a marathon. You literally just came down the stairs," She pointed back at the counter."After you are done, you let me know. I'll be upstairs" and she turned around swiftly and walked away, leaving me sta

VivianI was almost a walking dead by the time Elizabeth finally let me stop doing all the strenuous work around the house that she could think of and that was because Axel finally came back from wherever it was that he had traveled to.The day he came back, I had been in the kitchen cooking lunch for Elizabeth, and he had exploded once he saw me stirring the meat stock."What do you think you're doing here?" He shouted and I froze on the spot."I'm making lunch" I answered, not liking the way he was looking at me."What do you mean you're making lunch? Where are the workers?" He yelled, and I was quiet because I genuinely didn't have an answer to his question."Why are you quiet? I said, where are the workers?" He took a step closer to me and I countered it by taking a step back and just when I thought that he was going to do something as drastic as hitting me, Elizabeth's voice came through the door."Axel, you're back" she coed, her voice softer than I had ever heard it. "I didn't

Vivian.I was worried sick. What had the doctor seen that had caused such a commotion? What was wrong with the baby? Or me possibly.I wanted to go and look for him and asked him to tell me because curiosity was killing me. I managed to stay in my room for a long time but once it was getting dark, I couldn't wait any longer, so I forced my body to get up, and I made my way to the door. I really had to find out what was happening. After all, it was my baby even though it said on the contract that it was his, I was still the mother and I needed to know what was happening to my baby.I left the room and started on my way to Axel's room, which was just a few meters from mine and in no time I was in front of the room, but just as I raised my hand to knock, I heard someone make a noise inside, and it was unmistakable what the sound was. He was with someone in there. A woman because of the types of noises that I was hearing. I should have turned around and walked out immediately, but I stoo

Vivian.Did I really like him like that, or was it our mate bond that was acting up? I had a lot of reservations about the current situation, but it seemed like my heart didn't care about them because I noticed that if he was not near me for a specific amount of time per day, then it felt like my life was falling apart. It was a crazy feeling that I could not understand, and I needed someone to talk to about it, but there was no one I could talk to because I was all alone.While I was brushing my teeth in the bathroom one morning, I was feeling a bit lonely and missing the two family members i had left. As I instantly remembered that I knew where my grandma and sister lived because it was in the documents that Axel had given me earlier, an idea popped up. I had barely finished brushing my teeth before I rushed out of the bathroom to find the documents that contained the address. It didn’t take me long to find it, and I quickly found a pen and paper and copied out the address. All I ne

Vivian.My eyes felt like they were glued shut with hot glue when I tried to open them, but I was determined to know who had taken me, so I forced them open. The stinging sensation made me wish I had just kept them shut, but once the pain started to subside, I looked around and found myself in a dimly lit room, alone. It was obvious that I had been kidnapped, but by whom? Who would want to kidnap me when I had nothing to offer?I realized that I was alone in the room, and the rope used to tie my hands wasn't too tight, which meant I had a chance to escape. But before I could finish my thought, a door opened, and I made out the physique of a man standing there. He stood still for a moment before entering the room, and I found myself hugging myself tightly as he approached. What did he want with me? Was this some kind of human trafficking situation? Was I going to be sold to foreigners and taken in as one of their slaves? Because I had heard a lot about things like that happening, and

Vivian’s POVEvery day was the same, just like in the mansion. But this time around, it was more horrible because the men kept hitting me without considering the fact that I was pregnant. They came into the room each day, asked me the same set of questions, and when I gave them the exact same answers or no reply at all because I could barely find the strength to speak, they ended up beating me up to a pulp. Every single day.I was already anticipating my death when they were at it again one day. The door suddenly burst open, and some men that I had never seen before barged in, charging towards us and dragging the men off me. I didn’t understand who the new men were, and I was barely even breathing to really care about who they were, but I knew who they were with at least when a familiar scent filled my nostrils. Axel. He was here to save me, and that was the last thing I remembered thinking about before I entered into the darkness called unconsciousness.Axel’s POVShe was unconscious

13Vivian's POVThe silence in the hospital room when Axel left was deafening. It was a tough decision for the doctor, but I already knew that he was going to do what Axel had told him to do because I had no money to continue catering for my bills. He looked at me one last time, remorse written all over his face before he left the room too.Now alone, I felt the tears filling my eyes, and I asked the same question that I always asked every time: "Why was I so unfortunate in life?" But as usual, I got no response. Still wallowing in my pain, the door opened, and this time it was two nurses who entered. One only nodded stiffly at me, and the other gave me an awkward smile before they started taking me off the drip that I was connected to. I was being discharged, and there was no two ways about it. I wanted to beg, scream, and cry out my eyes for them to have pity on me, but I did not even find the strength to do that because subconsciously I knew that it was just going to be a waste of

14Axel's POVI was pissed at everyone, but especially Vivian, my mate.Calling her my mate felt a bit strange, but no matter how weird I thought it was, whenever I was around her, there was always this force that just made me want to be close to her. But now she had gone and left the house, putting the baby and herself in danger. She should have just stayed indoors. I knew why I had asked her not to go anywhere. I had enemies everywhere, and she was an easy target if they ever got the chance. And she had presented them with the perfect opportunity by leaving the house to see her grandmother and sister.Why hadn't she just asked me if she could go? I would have figured out a way to take her to see them. But now she had run off, and I didn't know where she was. Luckily, I had an idea who had taken her, and I immediately alerted the guys. Soon, we were headed for the hideout of my most hated competitor. The place was in a whole different country, but it was only about a five-hour journe

Vivian's POVThe next day, Sarah and I went to the bakery to see her friend. On the way, I couldn't stop admiring the city. It was bustling and busy but still somehow managed to look appealing. Immediately we stepped onto the street of the bakery, the smell of freshly baked bread and pastries travelled through the air and into my nostrils, making me hungry even though I had just eaten before stepping out of the house. I said a silent prayer to the goddess just before we stepped inside. I needed this job.Inside, the bakery was even better than outside as expected, it has a very beautiful feel to it and I just stood and took it all in. I could already imagine myself working here, surrounded by the delicious treats and smells."It's beautiful right?" Sarah smiled "Emily has done well with this space. Come on let's go find her" she said and I followed her as she headed to the back of the bakery, where a woman with an apron covered with flour greeted them. "Look who's making more treats

Vivian's POVThe day of my discharge finally came and I didn't know how to feel about it. I was finally going to be able to leave Kismet and go to Tondc to start my life afresh. I wondered if everytime it happened if I would always feel this nervous and scared. I mean, it wasn't the first time I was starting my life over.Janice had come in the previous day and helped me pack my belongings for the journey. I got lost in thought again as I looked around, trying to convince myself that I would be fine but how will I know that when I was not alone anymore. I have the twins to think about now too. We hailed down a taxi and entered it to the train station. I almost hid my head in shame as I watched Janice pay for everything. How was she so kind? I wasn't used to people being so kind and caring for me and I just wanted to repay her back for everything but I didn't have to means too. Yet.We got into the train and settled in for the journey because it promised to be a very long journey. Ton

Vivian’s POVA few days after the birth of the kids, life felt great, with Janice taking care of me and always bringing me food. She had explained to me how she had found me. Apparently, the group of women I had seen pointing at me while I walked home that afternoon, had seen a poster that Janice had made when she realized that I had gone missing and they informed her right away. She had already gotten news from someone else that had seen me on the streets so she was already in town when the women informed her and she came rushing. I wondered what would have happened if she had not come to look for me that night.I was so grateful but deep down I knew that I had to start thinking of a way I was going to handle my situation because things were not going to be like this forever. One afternoon, just as I had finished feeding the kids and putting them to sleep, the door opened and in came Janice,“Hey there my love” she greeted, setting the black bag she was carrying on a table “How are

Vivian's POVThe contractions were not as bad as I expected and that was because it was only the beginning of my labor and in a normal circumstance, it would have been the perfect time for me to have started my journey to a hospital but that was not even a possibility because I had no money for a hospital. I looked around me, it was dark already so I just had to bear the contraction pain till dawn and maybe get a passerby to help me deliver the babies.I felt the tears well up in my eyes but closed it and tried to get some sleep. I would need the energy when it was time to push the kids out but it didn't take more than a few minutes before I felt a very sharp pain. This was not merely a contraction but a warning. I had tried to ignore the previous ones, hoping they would stop until dawn but now, I knew I couldn't deny it any longer. I was in full time labor.I felt my chest contract with panic as I looked around, it was dark and I was alone, there was no how I was going to find anyone

Elizabeth's POVI blinked once to clear my eyes, opened them and then blinked again but the image before me remained and did not change. One minute I was paying for my groceries at the store's counter and the next minute, Vivian was standing right in front of me just very further away. Was I hallucinating? Cause I had taken a lot of alcohol before stepping out but a third blink of my eye revealed that I was not and she was indeed standing before me.The moment froze while our eyes met and the anger in me at her, for everything she had done before her disappearance and after especially Axel's behavior towards me, all came rushing to the surface and what more the fact that she was pregnant? I thought the news was that she lost the baby? But that was a lie obviously. I was going to kill her. I had to. I quickly signalled to my bodyguards and pointed to her "Get her" I commanded and I watched as she turned swiftly on her feet and dashed off. She was too fast considering that size of her s

Vivian's POVGoing from my new house to the hospital was not much of a hassle because there was a bus stop right in front and the fare was not a lot at all. I was happy with my life. I was glowing, my stomach was growing. Everything was just perfect and I was reveling in it until one evening.I had just finished my shift and was heading back home. My plan had been to take the bus but since I hadn't properly exercised in a few days, I made a last minute decision to walk home. On my way, I stopped by at a small store to buy some fruits and just as I was making a turn towards the counter, I stopped dead in my tracks and held back a gasp because standing right there at the counter was someone I had not expected to ever see in my life ever again.

I took the time of the silence that followed to look around the room. It was a small space really and everything was well arranged except for the few specks of dust I noticed on the curtains and the little table at the far right corner of the room. Immediately a thought occurred to me. I could totally help them wash the curtains and clean up the tables as a cleaner or something and in exchange, they give me some money so I can cater for myself and my children when they were born."Doctor?" I looked at her and she smiled at me. I liked her already, she had this warm persona to her and it made me feel like I could ask for anything and not be sc

She said and I nodded"The other side of Kismet is very good in respect to jobs and livelihood but it is also very dangerous. So you should always keep your eyes open and be alert" she told me and I nodded again. Before she said that, I had already figured out that this part of town was for the locals and the other part was the more developed part of the country but as nothing was moving for me here, I had to go and see what the other part held for me."I will.
