~chapter 3~
*Caught!*
Ruby Turner
Tears slipped down my eyes as I stared at the dark ceiling. I felt trapped, I missed my mom and I just wanted to get the hell out of here.
I ran to the door, contemplating my next action before doing it. I banged hard in the door, begging for someoneâŠ.anyone.
I peeped through the glass but no one was coming, I slowly sat on the ground feeling weak and tired from all the shouting.
âThis is how itâs going to end! Iâm going to get sold and forgotten, no one will remember meâ I whispered, tears dripping down my face. I heard something outside, it sounded so faint I almost didnât hear it.
âKnockâ I heard again, I stood up and stared outside the door. A middle aged woman stood there staring at me. She looked stunning, her obvious wrinkles around her big brown eyes staring at me.
âYou must be newâ she whispered, looking around to see if anyone was coming.
âPlease this was a mistake, Iâm not one of the girlsâ I begged, I didnât know if this was my last chance to escape or if they were setting me up. I just knew I wanted to get out.
âI donât understand but I believe youâshe assured.
âOh my gosh thank you so muchâ I cried tears of joy, it was nice to see someone that actually listened to what I was saying.
âIâm going to get you out of here, the king has picked an interest in you and thatâs a bad thingâ she said, fumbling with some keys. I guess they were keys to the door.
She fumbled for a while before I heard the door lock click. I hopped on my toes out of excitement, I was ready to do better and run faster this time. I have been given a second chance, I needed to make it count.
She opened the door and grabbed my hand âGo straight down, youâll see a dark alley. Follow that down, there will be no guard by this time. Hurryâ she instructed, hurriedly closing the door and walking away.
I wanted to thank her but she was out of sight already.
âI need to do thisâ I whispered to myself, making slow stripes towards the alleyway.
It was dark and quiet, I looked around after every step. I didnât want to make any mistakes.
I got to the alleyways and I saw some guards there, they were having a conversation about someone that sounded like me.
âShe would be good in bed,â one said, grinning from ear to ear.
âThe king took interest in her quickly just like we did, I canât wait for him to be done with her. I canât promise Iâll shareâ the one who locked me up said, shoving the other guy a little.
âHow are you sure the king is going to give her to you?â
âIâve been loyal and good to him so heâll definitely give her time. Do you remember how I got Stacy, his favoriteâ he laughed, motioning for them to go to their designated locations.
The king sounded disgusting, how dare he treat girls like they were pieces of trash?
Ughh I canât wait to get out of here.
I watched the guards concentrate deeper in their conversation while I sneaked back and got to the door.
I grabbed it and yanked it slowly, to avoid any loud noises.
I felt the whiff of cold wind slap my face, I couldnât help but sigh in relief.
I looked back one more time before taking a run for it. I passed through maize plantations and they bruised my feet as I wasnât wearing sandals.
I pushed through the pain,I had to get home, I had to meet mom and tell her how sorry I was for disobeying her. She was right, this place was cursed and trashy, I was definitely going to drop a bad review on my blog.
I stopped to take my breath, taking a look around I realized that I was at what looked like a market. There were short legs of people's possible shops.
It wasnât the cleanest market but I had to give it the benefit of doubt, it was probably looking like this because no one was around.
I tried to see if there was anything I could eat but I didnât see anything.
âIâm so hungryâ I whispered, which didnât sound like anything because I was so quiet, the crickets were louder.
I considered eating them but everything was disrupted when I heard footsteps.
âFind that bitchâ someone said, walking slowly towards where I was. I ran to hide behind a shed waiting for them to pass but that didnât happen.
âCheck everywhere, we canât leave without her. The king would have our headsâ he announced and the rest of them chanted âYes!â Before walking away.
âYou have to be around hereâ he muttered to himself.
I placed my hands over my mouth trying to stifle the little sounds of breath that were coming out of my mouth. I held my breath for the longest time that I thought I was going to pass out and die there.
I hated the thought so much?
âCheck behind the shedsâ he ordered. They started checking and I knew they were getting close to where I was.
For a while everywhere went silent, my eyes wandering, brain thinking of what could be wrong? Why was everywhere so silent?
I closed my eyes, praying not to be found but I was grabbed.
âI got her,â the one grabbing me yelled to the commander.
âWhere do you think youâre going huhâ he smacked my face hard. I felt the metallic taste of blood in my mouth.
âYou were bought, you have no right to leave without asking the kingâ he looked around and pointed at another âtake her backâ I was scooped off the ground and smashed me hard on his shoulder.
Everything went blank.
I woke up feeling pains all round my body. I was soaked in water.
âWhat is going on?â I groaned out. Trying to get out of the bathtub.
The room was filled with towels and bottles; different types of bottles.
Some girls walked In holding different clothes.
âPour the water in,â The woman who helped me said. A girl with a bucket full of hot water walked closer to the bath and poured it in.
I felt the water burn my skin but I couldnât do anything because my hands were tied down.
âPour the rosemary and sunflower oilâ she ordered and they did. They did as she said and walked closer, the girl took a wet cloth, raised her hands to my shoulder and scrubbed gently.
âMake sure she is extra clean, the king doesnât want his slave dirtyâ she yelled, at the girl, making her scrub my body harder.
I couldn't control the tears that dropped from my eyes, this was the end, I was treated nicely because the king wanted to use me for whatever sick thing he wanted to do.
Hello yâall đ©đ©Iâm back again so I have figured out the problem. I think the main reason why Iâm not consistent is because I hardly come to Facebook.
So now I need someone that is a huge fan, that loves my books to drop their WhatsApp number in the comment section so Iâll tell them the solution. âșïžIf I find someone trust me itâs going to be different.
Letâs grow this page together.
đđșHIGHSCHOOL ALPHA 33đ„đ
Kiara Pov
We were done with the whole introduction and I could still see Lyon glaring at John, I wanted to know what the f**k was going on between them, the tension was too much I mean you could literally cut it off with a blunt knife.
I kept monitoring them because I didnât understand anything that happened at all.
âWellâŠâ mom said trying to cut into this tension that deep in the ceiling of our apartment.
âSoâŠ. John is there anything that we donât know about you that you are willing to tell us maybe?â My soul just didnât vibe with him and I felt like he was hiding something from us and Iâm sure Lyon knows that thing that he is hiding.
âUhmmm, I think Iâve said everything that needs to be saidâ he gave an awkward smile after his statement which made me suspect him more.
âOkay, Enough of the questions. This isnât the freaking police stationâŠ.âmom groaned giving me a glare.
âI booked us a table at the restaurant down the street, we would be having our dinner there, I think we should go nowâ mom suggested
âSureâ Lyon said after a while of not contributing.
I went to the kitchen to quickly do the dishes before going up to dress up for the so---called dinner.
Lyon walked into the kitchen to assist me but I shot him a glare which made him pause at the door.
âWhat?â he looked so innocent but I knew that he knew what he did
âAre you literally asking me that question Lyon?â I was pi**ed as f**k and I wanted to vent out to him.
âI donât know what you are you are talking aboutâ he denied.
âLyon, I donât know if you are trying to be funny, all I know is that Iâm really pi**ed at you and I hate the way you are calm about itâ
âI donât know what I did but Iâm sorryâ
âIâm not ready to have this conversation with you right now so please just leave me beâ I walked off because I didnât want to hear whatever he had to spill.
I walked upstairs to change, I didnât know about this dinner so I was really taken by surprise when mom said it. I guess her new job is really paying off. I changed into a big shirt and boyfriend jeans, I didnât want to dress expensive because the occasion wasnât that serious.
I was going downstairs but stopped when I heard someone talking, I thought it was mom but it sounded like john and Lyonâs voice. I slowed down my steps because I didnât want them to hear or Lyon to sniff me out.
âWhat the hell are you doing here?â Lyon asked
âI think I should be asking that question because out of all the people in this world, it shouldnât be youâ John said
âWell itâs not my fault that she was picked as mineâ Lyon growled outâŠ
I wish I could see them
âYou need to leave, do you think she will accept you after what youâve done to her family?â John laughed
âYou made me do that⊠for f**k sakes!â he whisper yelled
âI did but it didnât change the fact that you still did it even though you had the choice to stopâ he mocked
âHow the f**k do you sleep at night knowing what you didâŠâ he paused âSomeone is hereâ he said
âYou want to expose yourself so fast kidâ John laughed.
I knew it was my cue to come out from my hiding spot.
âHi, are you guys readyâ I awkwardly said. I couldnât get their conversation out of my head, I wanted to know what they meant and what they were talking about.
Why the f**k did John say Lyon shouldnât be with me after everything he had done?
What had Lyon done?
âDid you just get here?â John asked
âWellâŠuhmmm yeah, is there any problem?â I glared secretly at him.
I didnât like the man, no matter how much and hard he tried to act nice.
âWell I guess I was the last to get dressed thenâ mom said approaching the living room with a bright smile, she looked beautiful and happy. It had been long since id seen her this way and I didnât want it to ever end.
âLetâs go thenâ she said going over to the rack to grab her bag.
âYou look gorgeous Lisaâ John complimented and mom went all pinkâŠ
[PS: I FORGOT HER MOTHERâS NAME]
We got to the restaurant and it was bubbling with customers and aroma of delicious food⊠I wanted to have it all.
âReservation under the name Lisa Johnsonâ
âSure ill check that nowâ the woman went through something on the computer before saying âIâll get someone to lead you to your tableâ she smiled nicely even though I caught her staring at Lyon lustfully
âIâll be your waitress for todayâ a young and beautiful lady came over to take our order
âUhm hat will you have mom?â
âIâm thinking should try the Salad and beefâ
âIâll take that tooâ John said. I glared at him because I knew that he was doing too much, why the hell he was trying his best to impress mom.
âLyon will have beef and Iâll have steakâ I said to the waitress.
I could feel words in my head and I knew it was Lyon trying to communicate with me. This was still weird and I was trying my best to get used to it.
âheyyyâ he whispered.
Iâm not going to talk with him.
âWhy donât you want to talk to me?â he spoke through his powers
âBecause I donât want to talk to youâ I shouted and mom looked at me with concerns
âHoney are you okay?â she asked looking confused
âUhmmm,, its actually nothing at all mom, I was thinking about somethingâ I lied. I felt bad that I had to lie to her, but I had too because I couldnât say âhey mom, do you know that my boyfriend here is a werewolf but I promise he isnât going to hurt us because according to him Iâm his mateâ. That will sound so stupid to her.
The dinner went on and John kept trying so hard to please my mom which made me almost puke. I couldnât get his conversation with Lyon off my head.
I wanted to know what that conversation meant and I was going to get to the bottom of it.
I needed to know âŠâŠ.
