KAVAN’S POV I felt greatly betrayed by Marcus. He was my closest friend, and I also took him as my brother. For him to do such a thing to me now means that he has been harboring his hatred for me all along; he was so good at pretending to be a good person when he was a snake and a traitor.“It is clear now, Marcus; you are only a pathetic loser. You had to do all these just because you are jealous of me; you just made that clear right now. You badly crave to be me so bad, but guess what? You can never be me in this or your next life to come. No matter what you do to help or hatch plans with my dad, he would never consider you to be his son. To him, you are just a puppet he needs now, and the moment your job is done for him, he will dispose of you very quickly, and you will be shocked." I said.“That is not true, Kavan; you are such an ungrateful brat who cannot see the good deeds his father has been doing for him. You are just a self-centered person who only cares about himself and
AUTUMN’S POV "Wow, Autumn, you have gotten so confident. I am so surprised by that,” Marcus said, chuckling. “We will wait and see if it goes well or not, but if it does have it at the back of your head that you are doomed,” he added. I looked at him in disgust and told him to go to hell for all I care. “You know what, Mathias, you can go to hell for all I care. I do not care about what you do anymore; I am so sick of all this,” I said. “Do whatever you want or feel like, but you should know that you can never keep us apart from each other,” I added.“Well, I can. Thank you for the idea you just brought to me now, Autumn. How about I imprison you?” He said. Hearing that, I was so scared, but I could not let him see my weakness. “You would not dare do such,” I said. “Oh, you want to try me?” He responded.I did not respond and wanted to leave, but he dragged me back. “You are not leaving here until I saw so; such a disrespectful brat,” he said. “Let me go, Marcus; I do not have anyth
KAVAN'S POV Marcus response startled me a bit. It seemed so weird and also off; I could not wrap my fingers around it. I get that friends get jealous when the attention one gives them moves to another person, but his seems so weird and off. “Marcus, you are being so weird right now. What do you mean by the attention I gave you reduced and shifted to Autumn? You know that is not true at all,” I said. “I have always made sure I made some time for us to bond regardless of whatever thing I am facing or doing at the moment,” I added. “That is not true, Kavan,“ he responded.“You know it is so true; I have always made sure to spend time with you so you would never feel alone or left out of my life. You are making it seem like I do not cherish our friendship or anything,” I said. “You are my friend, and you know nothing would ever come between us; why are you making such a big fuss?” I added.He flared up and got angry; he said I did not have time for him anymore and I only cared about mys
AUTUMN'S POV I tried leaving Mathias's room, but he would not let me. “Get out of my way; I want to leave here,” I screamed. “No, you are not going anywhere. You are staying here tonight,” he responded. “We are going to mate this night; you will get pregnant, and you will bear me a child,” he added. “You must be joking, Mathias,” I said. “You must be joking if you think that would actually happen,“ I added. He told me how I was only deceiving myself and it would actually happen.“Well, we just have to find out then,” he said. “We will find out this night if that would happen or not,“ he added, dragging me towards the bed. I got scared at this point and was struggling to break free from his tight grip. He held onto me so tight that I was unable to get myself free from him.He pushed me on the bed and started laughing. He told me how I was going to be under him while he does sinister things to me. “You will look so good under me, Autumn; your moans are going to be like ringtones to me
AUTUMN'S POV “Your dad came to Mrs. Potts room earlier when I went to check up on her,” I said. “You went back?” He asked. "Yes, I went back. When you left, I was so bored and I did not have anyone to talk to, so I just decided to go check up on her again,“ I responded.“On my way to her room, I saw your dad and also Dax. They did not see me because I quickly hid, but I think he noticed my presence, like he knows my scent,“ I added. “Hope he did not catch you hiding?” Kavan asked. "No, he did not. I hid well,” I said. “So when they both left, I went to Mrs. Potts room to see how she was faring; he also came like some few minutes later to check up on her.” I added, “Did you try to leave when you saw him?” Kavan asked. "Yes, I did try to leave, but he held me back, not allowing me to,” I said. “He dragged me by my hands to his room,” I added.“He must really be out of his mind; how could he do such to you?” Kavan said. “I think he saw that as an opportunity because since I have been a
KAVAN'S POV I left Marcus home a few minutes later and zoomed off, heading straight to the manor. I had a feeling that Autumn was in danger, but I just shrugged it off; I thought it was just me overthinking about it.I soon got to the manor and saw the guards already waiting for me at the entrance. “Mister Kavan, you are back already,” one of them asked. “Yes, obviously. Were you waiting for me?” I asked. They responded and told me that my dad requested to see me in his room urgently."Yes, sir, we have been waiting for you. Your dad requested for you to see him in his room right now. He says it is very urgent,” one of them responded. “He is in the room with his mate though, Miss Autumn,“ he added. Hearing that, I panicked and ran off, heading to his room.I was getting anxious about what my dad could be doing to her in his room. He was capable of doing terrible and vile things to her if not quickly stopped. I got to the door and barged in without even knocking.What I saw was a bad
KAVAN'S POV “He caught you hiding?” I asked. "No, he did not; I hid pretty well from him,” she responded. “So when they both left, I went to Mrs. Potts room to check up on her, and then a few minutes later Mathias also came. I was shocked because it was so unexpected,” she added. “He said he came to check up on her and also to see how she is faring,” she continued.“Did you try leaving when you saw him?” I asked her. “Exactly what I tried doing; when I saw him, I tried leaving, but he stopped me,” she responded. “He dragged me to his room forcefully, and even Mrs. Potts had to plead on my behalf to take it easy,” she added.I knew my dad had other motives than actually going to see Mrs. Potts. He knew Autumn would go there since he already noticed her presence when he was with Dax. He thought he would find her there, and luckily for him, he did.“He must be really out of his mind now; how could he do such to you?” I said. “I am sure he saw that as an opportunity because I have been a
MATHIAS’S POV Autumn had already become so confident and cocky. She was just talking and also insulting me at the same time. "Wow, Autumn, you have gotten so confident. I am so surprised by that,” Marcus said, chuckling. “We will wait and see if it goes well or not, but if it does have it at the back of your head that you are doomed,” he added. She looked at him in disgust and told me to go to hell for all I care. “You know what, Mathias, you can go to hell for all I care. I do not care about what you do anymore; I am so sick of all this,” she said. “Do whatever you want or feel like, but you should know that you can never keep us apart from each other,” she added. “Well, I can. Thank you for the idea you just brought to me now, Autumn. How about I imprison you?” I said. Hearing that, she was so scared, but she did not want me to see her weakness. “You would not dare do such, she said. “Oh, you want to try me?” I responded. She did not respond and wanted to leave, but I dra
All did not sit well with me seeing Autumn become so flirty with my dad. I knew she had to be up to something, but I could not quite wrap my fingers around it yet.After my dad and she left, I was worried, and I decided to follow my instincts to go check up on her. I knew something bad was happening, and I could not just stay by and think about it.“Sunny, I have to go now. I will be right back,” I said. “Where are you going, Kavan?" She asked. “No, you don't have to worry; I will be right back in no time,” I responded. “Okay, I will be waiting for you here. Do not take too long,” she added. I faked a smile and left, heading to my dad's room.I could hear someone screaming and shouting from his room, and I knew all hell has finally broken loose; he must be trying to force himself on her again.I banged at the door, and I slammed the door open. My hunch was right. The sight in front of me was so gruesome, as I could see my dad on top of Autumn, trying to force himself on her.“What do
MATHIAS’S POV Autumn was being flirty with me, and she made it so obvious to everyone. I was sure she did not know if Kavan was being serious about Sunny or not, but I believed him either way."Mathias, can we go to your room, please? I feel like spending the night with you,” she said. Kavan looked stunned when he heard her say that and was looking at her for some sort of explanation; she ignored him and was persistent in going with me to my room.I took the opportunity and grabbed her waist, gesturing her to my room and leading the way. Oh yes, finally!” I said. I was filled with excitement as I beamed with smiles all plastered on my face. Autumn was trying to make Kavan regret his decisions by getting him jealous of me. Either way, I was enjoying it, so I did not bother to think much of it.“Kavan, I think we should go too. We have told dad what we came here to say,” Sunny said, almost dragging Kavan away. Kavan did not want to leave as he continued staring at Autumn, waiting for h
AUTUMN'S POV Marcus dragged me by my hair and forcefully started kissing all over my body. I felt so disgusted as I struggled to pull him off me. His grip on me was too tight, and I was unable to get him off. At this point, I was screaming and shouting, hoping someone would hear and come to my rescue. This was not the first time Mathias had tried forcing himself on me.The last time was when Kavan luckily came to my aid. Mathias had dragged me from Mrs. Potts room to his room and tried molesting me. I was trying to fight my way out, but his grip on me made it so difficult and hard to leave. I could hear banging at the door, and Kavan suddenly slammed the door open. He came to my aid again, and I knew he had a hunch about this earlier because he knew I would not willingly go to Mathias’s room unless I had a plan. “What do you think you are doing, dad?” Kavan said, pushing his dad off me. “Why are you here?” Mathias responded. “Shouldn't you be with your pregnant wife?” he added. “W
AUTUMN'S POV I was being flirty with Marcus, and I made it so obvious to everyone. I did not know if Kavan was being real with the pregnancy with Sunny, but I suspected it to be only an act to get his dad deceived."Mathias, can we go to your room, please? I feel like spending the night with you,” I said. Kavan looked stunned when he heard me say that and was looking at me for some sort of explanation. I ignored him and was persistent in going with his dad.Mathias took the opportunity and grabbed my waist, gesturing me to his room and leading the way. Oh yes, finally!” Mathias said. He was filled with excitement as he beamed with a smile all plastered on his face. This was part of my plan and also to make Kavan feel a bit jealous about it. I could see the jealousy all over his face, and he was very terrible at hiding it.“Kavan, I think we should go too. We have told dad what we came here to say,” Sunny said, almost dragging Kavan away. Kavan did not want to leave as he continued st
MATHIAS’S POV “You have always been selfish, Mathias; you have never truly cared about me or my feelings,” she said, trying to gaslight me. “Me selfish? How dare you say that to me?” I responded. “That is the truth; why don't you want to accept that fact?” she added, trying to instigate me to respond. I knew all she was doing and just played along with her tricks.“You are lucky, Autumn, that I am in a good mood, or else you know what I would have done to you,” I responded. “What haven't you done, Mathias? I still remember vividly how you raised your hands on me,” she said. “I cannot believe you would do such to me,” she added. “I did not mean that, Autumn, and you know that, you keep pushing me to the wall,” I responded.She was about to respond back at me, but then Sunny and Kavan suddenly showed up and told me that they had something to tell me..Kavan saw me and Autumn already there; it was as if she wanted to leave, but I was stopping her from leaving. Kavan and Autumn looked at
AUTUMN’S POV “You have always been selfish, Mathias; you have never truly cared about me or my feelings,” I said, trying to gaslight him. “Me selfish? How dare you say that to me?” Marcus said. “That is the truth; why don't you want to accept that fact?” I added, trying to instigate him to respond. “You are lucky, Autumn, that I am in a good mood, or else you know what I would have done to you,” he responded. “What haven't you done, Mathias? I still remember vividly how you raised your hands on me,” I said. “I cannot believe you would do such to me,” I added. “I did not mean that, Autumn, and you know that, you keep pushing me to the wall,” he responded.I was about to respond back at him, then Sunny and Kavan suddenly showed up and told Mathias that they had something to tell him.Kavan saw his dad and I already there; it was as if I wanted to leave, but he was stopping me from leaving. Kavan and I looked at each other briefly before we avoided each other's eye contact. We had to ma
KAVAN'S POV Sunny and I went to look for my dad. We had gone to his room after revising for the plan I told her already. “You know what to do, right?” I asked her. “Yes, I do,” she responded. "Okay, give me an example; express yourself,” I added.“No, it is not needed. I will do that when I see your dad,” she said. I did not argue with her and just nodded in response to her. We first went to my dad's room to see if he was there, but he was nowhere to be found."Dad,” I said, knocking softly on the door. “Are you in there?” I added. “Maybe he is not in the room,” Sunny said. “I guess too; let's go to the balcony or the dining hall,” I added. “Let us go to the balcony first,” she responded, and we both left and headed to the manor's balcony.There we saw my dad and Autumn already there; it was as if she wanted to leave, but he was stopping her from leaving. Autumn and I looked at each other briefly before we avoided each other's eye contact. We had to make it look like we got betrayed
MATHIAS'S POV “Did he catch you hiding?” Kavan asked her. She responded and told him that I did not, but I noticed her presence. “He did not see me; I made sure to hide very well,” she responded to him. “So when they both left, I came out of my hiding spot and quickly went to Mrs. Potts room, and then, I think, after a few minutes, he also came by to check up on her,” she added.“Did you try leaving when you saw him?” Kavan asked her. "Yes, I did try to leave, but he held me back,” she replied. I was spying on Kavan and Autumn and also listening to their conversations. After some while, I got bored of it and went to the library to cool my head off. After some minutes there, I asked a guard to request for Marcus to come to the manor. “Hey you, come here,” I said, sighting one of the guards I saw. "Yes, sir,” he responded. “I want you to call Marcus for me, get in touch with him, and tell him that I want to see him at the manor right now,” I said. “Okay, sir,” he responded and left.
AUTUMN'S POV I do not owe you any reply, Marcus.“ I responded to him. “Why can you not get that you are just a tool for Mathias? He is never going to trust or actually love you like his son; you are just doing this for nothing. Are you blind to see that?” I added.“Shut up,” he said. “You are working so hard for him, but when he is done using you, he is going to leave and dumb you without even looking back at all,” I responded. “Who asked for your opinion, Autumn? Why can you not just keep your mouth shut?” He fired back at me.“You don't own me, so I can speak and give my opinions whenever I want to,” I said. “You are not the boss of me, and you cannot control me, scumbag,” I added. I have had it enough with both him and Mathias; people have been calling me names, but I have just decided to keep calm all this while, but now I am so tired of it, I cannot take it anymore.“Since you are done barking Marcus, how about you leave?” I said. “I already told you to mind your business,” he r
