Chapter 40: Hate

Zaina’s POV

Time passed by, and in one hour, the gathering will start. After lunch, I went back to my room and didn’t go out anymore.

I stood up from the bed and moved closer to the door when I heard footsteps approaching. I opened the door, and Rebecca and Blade’s faces greeted me.

“Oh, what great timing,” Rebecca murmured, just loud enough for me to hear.

I stood straight and gave them a questioning look.

“Something happened. The meeting was canceled due to a reason; Mr. Russo had an urgent and confidential event to attend,” Blade informed me.

Huh, how VIP is he? I just nodded and slammed the door in their faces.

He left, and the meeting was canceled. How unfortunate. I can’t do anything but stay here longer. Geez.

I think I should have come with them. I pulled my phone from my pocket when I felt it vibrate. I received a text message from Rebecca:

    Chapter 41: SNATCHEDZaina’s POVIn the middle of the night, only the light from the moon illuminated my way out of the place I hated the most. The men holding guns were shouting my name and chasing after me as if I were some kind of wild animal.The day I found out that my foster parents had lied about me, I escaped. I successfully left the dungeon where they had locked me up and tortured me. After four months of being treated like a slave, I finally broke free.I stopped running and hid in a place that I knew they couldn’t find me. I stayed in that narrow and filthy spot for many hours. My whole body felt weak; I badly wanted to sleep forever. But I would never sleep and give up easily.I came out of my hiding place when I saw a big truck parked near me. I quickly approached it and climbed inside. I entered a large box and saw that there was a lot of food inside.Hope filled my heart. I was exhausted and terribly starving. I was tired physically, mentally, and emotionally. I escaped

    Chapter 42: FoundZaina’s POVI immediately opened my eyes, my heart racing. Why did I dream about that again? Why does my past keep haunting me?I forced myself to calm down and turned on the light using the remote control. I let out a sigh and reached for my mask on the table beside the bed. I put it on, along with my hoodie jacket. I needed fresh air at that moment. I got off the bed and stood up, glancing at the wall clock; it was a quarter past eleven in the evening.As I walked down the hallway, I noticed a lot of men in black guarding the place. I knew they had seen me but chose to ignore me, which was good. I didn’t need their attention.I went out to the terrace on the second floor of the mansion. From where I stood, I saw the lights coming from the city below. The Colter society was really huge and beautiful, huh? I looked up at the sky and saw a helicopter approaching.I leaned on the terrace railing, watching as it landed in the wide field in front of the mansion. From my

I had the urge to call his name, but I held back.After a few seconds, a group of men entered the scene, grabbing my arms and dragging me away. I wasn’t naive enough to think I didn’t know what was happening; I was the one he ordered to be put in the dungeon. What now? Did he decide to kill and torture me because he didn’t get what he wanted? How childish.I let them take me away, knowing he was watching. Did he think I would beg him not to take me to the dungeon? Heck, he was wrong. I would never beg—not again. I was done begging for survival and for him to leave me alone.Because of what he was doing right now

    Chapter 44: Cold TreatmentZaina’s POVMy body stiffened at what he said. Don’t leave? He can say that easily as if he didn’t send me to the dungeon last night. His guts really hit my nerves. I remained silent and stopped moving.A silence filled the room. No one dared to speak between the two of us. His eyes were closed, but I knew he was awake. I tried to get his arm off my waist, but he just tightened his grip.“I’m sorry,” he suddenly said. I didn’t respond. Tsk. Silence is a bitch; it hurts more than physical revenge. I stared at the ceiling of the room and continued ignoring him.I heard him take a deep breath before letting go of me. He held my jaw and made me face him, and then I met his eyes. There was too much emotion in them: sadness, longing, guilt… and love?“Please talk to me, baby?” he pleaded, but I remained silent, still. I just stared blankly at him. I didn’t know the King they all knew could be so dramatic. Tsk.“I’m sorry for what I said and did last night. I was j

I gave myself to him, but not my heart. I just got carried away by lust. Yeah, I felt something for him, but not in the way he felt towards me.He just confessed that he loves me and that he will never leave me? Why do I feel it was just an empty promise? That he will break his promise soon?I was taught not to trust easily, and that’s the reason why I have trust issues right now. I’m hard to please, hard to trust, show no fear, and am not capable of love.“Stand straight, chin up, and put your hands at your back!” An authoritative voice boomed from the area.The young version of me obeyed what the man told us to do. I’m not scared anymore; I learned to accept the life I have.Three years have passed; the weak version of me is gone. This is the new me: a killing machine, trained to kill, showing no mercy.The

I shook my head and answered no, plainly.“Why? I mean, why don’t you want to stay?” I just shrugged and started to move again to somewhere else that I didn’t know.“Too many reasons,” I answered while looking directly at the long hallway.“Like what?” she insisted on asking me. I glanced at her.“Reasons that I can’t tell to anyone else,” I replied meaningfully.“You are really mysterious. Who are you?” This time I smiled mysteriously.“Just a nobody,” I answered and winked at her. She smiled widely and playfully punched my shoulder.“You really don’t want to tell, eh?” she said and then chuckled. I shrugged my shoulder once again and just smiled.“Anyway, since you don’t want to tell it to me, let’s drop that subject.”That’s better.“By the way, where are you going?” “To somewhere else,” I responded.“Hmm?

If you’re lucky enough to stay alive, then move forward and continue living in this chaotic and cruel world.It’s been one week since I woke up. Since that day, I haven’t spoken a single word to him. He’s tried to ask me what happened, why I got stabbed, but I didn’t answer; instead, I remained silent. I just wanted to be alone. I wanted him to leave me alone.I need time to myself; my past keeps flashing back in my mind. It’s bothering me and affecting the way I live now. Why can’t I just forget?
