Alpha Connor woke up with sweats breaking out and then he went to the sitting room to drink water and calm down. Carolina on the other hand was having a dream as well. It seemed those moments were affecting them as well. ...The dream... Carolina's eyes widened as the realization of how dangerous her environment was flashed at the back of her mind. "How did I even end up here? Who brought me down here? What exactly happened?" Carolina asked rhetorically, staring inside the murky water covered with a herd of hungry crocodiles just beneath her. She felt the surface she was standing on wobble and reduce in height, her heart palpitating in so much fear. Carolina staggered slightly but didn't fall because of the chains that were used to securely hold her hands above her head so that she would not free herself. She tugged violently at the chain but it did not show any sign of coming off soon instead she felt very weak on the inside. It was so weird to her because Carolina could rec
“So, how did it go? Did they buy your lies?” Liliana asked, impatiently. “Yes, they did. I guess Connor still trusts me as a friend.” Hadrulph said, with a smirk. “Are you certain that we are safe, playing this game?” Helen asked, feeling frightened. “As long as you do not get caught before you strike.” Liliana said as she used her index finger to raise Helen’s chin. “And Connor will not get a whiff of what’s going on until we hit him hard and it is too late for him to strike back.” Hadrulph smiled, feeling ready to take Connor down, bits by bits. “Good. I love that zeal and confidence. You can both leave.” Liliana said, with a smile on her face. The next day, Alpha Connor mind-linked Jack to come over. When Jack got to Alpha Connor’s house, Alpha Connor came out with Carolina. “Let’s go to the villa.” “Alright, Alpha.” Jack drove them to the villa and then they all gathered in a circle. “Now, here is the update. Hadrulph visited Carolina and I, yesterday and they claimed to
"And what's that about?" Alpha Connor asked, out of curiosity. "I have offended you gravely and I am really sorry about that. Actually, Liliana sent Helen and I to you, so we can destroy you from within, but after being together like this, as if we are friends, it made me realize how much I missed you and how deep my offence is." Hadrulph apologized, then knelt before him. "Forgive me, friend. I really want to leave here, soon and I can't, without my pup, because he is still alive. I will appreciate it if you devise a plan to save my pup and then tell her that you got whiff of our plans and then you have gotten rid of us. Once I have my pup, neither I or my family will show their face." Hadrulph said as a tear fell from his eyes, to the ground. Alpha Connor who had already gotten wind of their plans was not shocked, but he was surprised that Hadrulph would actually turn a new leaf just after this experience. ~ "Wow. So he confessed?" Carolina exclaimed, with her eyes, bulging out.
Carolina was convinced that Jackson has a hand in the kidnap because why else did he insist on seeing me even after I had tried to make him understand that I couldn't? She could feel her face turning red in rage as she figured out that it was all his plan to have her killed. He betrayed her! Carolina could not believe he would do something like that to If she had known that such a turnout would have come about someday, she would have let Connor kill him that day he was abdu Carolina's thoughts were cut short when her legs wobbled dangerously again. She looked down at her feet and noticed that she had gotten closer than she was to the murky wa The crocodiles beneath snapped their sharp teeth at her and she released a loud frightful yell. Her voice pierced through the silence around the vici Did anyone hear her at all? Carolina prayed that someone at least She closed her eyes tightly and when she opened them, her eyes fell on something that looked sort of like a heap of clot Scra
Carolina was surprised, she squinted her eyes open to see that she was close to the water but not too close for the Crocs to jump and attack her. She took her eyes up and saw someone running hurriedly towards her. He controlled the leveler and it took her away from the Crocs that were still waiting for her beneath the leveler. Carolina was speechless as he watched the man try to unchain her hands, "Someone came to save me? Unbelievable!" She exclaimed in her mind, her heart gladdened. The man's face came into view and Carolina's brows furrowed, "Uncle Gregory?" She uttered, staring at the man in confusion. "That's right Carolina, it's me" he returned and pulled off the chain locs with so much force that it broke open. "I came to save you and to as well warn you to stay safe. Liliana is alive, I'm sure about this because she is the one that has put you in this position. To kill you off" Mr Gregory added, helping Carolina out of the leveler. He looked like he truly wanted to he
Carolina alighted the bus and let out a sigh. It was a beautiful sunny afternoon. The golden ball shone in the bright blue sky illuminating the earth. It was a beautiful day and she had been having fun with her friends until…'Why did father call for me?' She wondered as she walked down the road leading to their house.Different thoughts coursed through her mind but none prepared her for what was coming. Soon, Carolina was strolling into their rented apartment on Bay Street.Was this another bad news? Or was it just like the time he had told her that he couldn't pay her school fees after he had gambled away her mother's savings? She hoped that he hadn't done something stupid again.Her mind was racing with thoughts as she closed the door and darted her eyes around the small entryway. The hallway was dark and empty."Papa." She called out for him."We are in here, Caro. Come in." He invited her into the living area.Carolina's brows furrowed when she heard him speak. How many people we
"Papa, tell me this isn't true. Are you doing this again?" Hot tears trickled down her cheeks as her lips trembled and a small whimper escaped from them.She dug her fingertips into the chair while she stared at her father as he hung his head. He gave her no reply. Just like he hadn't given her any since she walked in.His reply only meant that it was true."This can't be true." She whimpered reliving how her father had run into different debts in the past which she used her hard-earned money to clear.It wasn't an easy time for her because she had to go through a lot to get the money. She did something she wouldn't have ever done just to save his head.The room was silent and the only noise was the clock ticking with each passing second. She now belonged to a total stranger because her father couldn't control his gambling addiction."Is there anything we can do please?" She turned to address the young man whose name she had forgotten within a few seconds.The shock was enough to make
Carolina had bloodshot eyes and her face was puffy from crying. She wore her hair in a messy bun and there were dried tear tracks on her cheekbones.She laid down on the mattress lost in deep thought. How would her life be with the Alpha? She didn't love him and certainly did not feel any connection with him.Except for the first attraction she had felt for him which later turned to hatred when she realized that he was her captor. She had contemplated trying to run away but it wouldn't work.Alpha Connor had so many connections in LA. The only way she could get out of his reach was if she booked a flight out of California. That was if she was able to disguise herself so well.Even if she did that, she didn't have any money on her, also her whole life was here. If she succeeded in leaving, where would she start from? She had no one else. All her life was in LA. She was between the devil and the deep blue sea. She imagined how life would be with a total stranger.Her father had cause
