SASHA VAHEMIR I open my eyes and turn and open my eyes and sit up. I stretch and yawn, I search around the room I don't see any of the maids around. I am thankful. I don't have to worry about them knowing at my uneven eye color. I stand up and walk to the bathroom. ***** I walk down the stairs, I catch Aiden reading a news paper. Are we not eating breakfast? I am starving. I walk to the dinning room and it is neat, no trace that food was eaten there and I walk to the kitchen same thing. I don't understand. Did they eat and forget I am in this house. I stumble to the living room. I snatch the newspaper but he is faster, he takes the newspaper from my hand gaze dead into my eyes, ready for what is to come. "Where are the maids and I wasn't called down for breakfast. Why?" "About that? No special treatment will be given to you anymore. If you can't wake up early in the morning to join us for breakfast, you won't eat until lunch is prepared or better still you can make breakfast fo
AIDEN BAHEDIA I can't stop myself from pacing around the room. A part of me felt like ripping my eyes out for putting her in harm's way, while the other side of me prayed she will be okay. A low growl escaped my lips. I fought the urge to stand up from where I sat when Susan bit into her skin because I knew right there that if I had stood up, I fear I would have ripped her beyond recognition. Sasha cry for help hit spot I never knew existed, Anger replaced my earlier excitement. I don't know what was worst, the fear of losing her or the guilt that stabs my chest. I should not have giving her that bow, I should have let her be when she refused earlier. If anything happens to her, I would never forgive myself. I haven't summoned enough courage to leave her side. I trepidate that when she wakes up and needs something I won't be here to assist her. My wolf has been struggling to break free but I can't let it. If it breaks lose I doubt it would agree to slip back in until he is sure sh
AIDEN BAHEDIA I open my eyes and stretch, it dawn on me. I hastily sit up and Sasha is still in her position as yesterday, she hasn't moved. Tear grips me as a gnawing feeling in my chest that has plagued me althrough last night pops up. I shake her and she doesn't bulge or taunt me for misbehaving with her. Hell no. My heart beat so fast I fear it will fall out of my chest and fall to the ground and shatter. Without warning, I carry her in my arms and run out of our room. I run past everyone in the sitting room and their confused gaze, when they see Sasha in my arms, they gawp and stand on their feet. "Get the car ready", I scream and Alex runs off towards the stairs, my chest refuses to stop palpitate. I can't wait for him much longer. I open the door and run out, if I wait for Alex, I would lose Sasha for life. With all the tumbling she hasn't moved a muscle. Did Susan kill her right in front of me without me knowing? I am stupid to believe Aiden. If I had listen to our instinc
SASHA VAHEMIR I open my eyes and the room is bright. I cringe my eyes and my head hurts, so does my hand and leg. I manage to sit up after several struggles. "Hey, hey Sash", Davil holds me down. Davil? What is he doing here? He ought to be enjoying his vacation. Wait, what is he doing in Aiden's house? I stare around the room. This isn't Aiden's room. This is my room. I can tell from the scent and the scenery. I lay back down. How long have I been gone for? My whole body is sore and hurts like a stampede was done on me. "Davil", I call out to him and he give me a weak smile and hugs me so tight I can hear my bones crack. "I was scared, Sash. I thought - I thought", he could not bring himself to muster the complete sentence. "I am fine. You know I am not built like you guys-" "Exactly why I was scared? I thought - I had to call for Tareem -" "You did what?", I ask in utter disbelief. Tareem and Davil don't see eye to eye. That is wh
AIDEN BAHEDIA "So we will wait for Sasha. Let the maids -", I stumble out of the dinning room and head to the bedroom only for me to catch her sleeping peacefully, my blood boils in anger. I order the maid to get a bucket of cold water, they bring it and I pour the entire bucket of water on her. She jerks up and gasp for air. She thought I was bluffing yesterday. I will prove to her I wasn't. She uses her palm to wipe off the water on her face as she gasp for air. Her angry gaze lands on me and I drag her by the arm and drag her downstairs and into the dinning room, I push her and she fell at the feet of Seb. "Did you think I was just talking stupidly yesterday? No one works for you Sasha. No one. You will serve us until I decide otherwise", she stands up and dust herself. "And if I say I am not doing it, what will you do? Do it, Aiden because I am not cooking for carmelions who can switch on me anytime ", she looks me dead in the eyes daring me and I wa
Sasha Vahemir "What did you do?", Beatrice squats beside me as I cross my leg and read one of Aiden's newspaper in the living room She is in pain, her face squeezed into a frown and I can hear her stomach growl and I bite my lips to stop me from bursting into an uncontrollable laughter. "Oh yeah, I added a little something into the food ", my eyes still glues to the newspaper. "But you ate it" "I drank an antidote after. I warned you guys about letting me cook. Next time you would urge the maids to cook", I wink at her and chuckle. Oh this will be fun. I can't wait to see Aiden's face. Everyone comes downstairs one after the other, they look drained and tired. Some sits down while some stand behind the sofa and rests on it. Thankfully they have enough water. I pretend like I don't see them. I turn to the next page. "What have you done?" "She poisoned us" "How did she do it? She ate it", her mum says in disbelief. "Don't e
Aiden Bahedia I turn and notice Sasha walking away. I sit up and my head starts to ache. I groan and breath heavily. Sasha halts on her track and spurn to stare at me. "Alex brought that drink that is at the drawer. He couldn't enter because he seems to be pissed. Drink it or not. I have delivered my message", she swirl and walk out of the room. I grab it and gulp it at a go and it gives a sweet bitter taste that I love. I shut my eyes and allow the drink hit. My bones starts strengthen and the wave of weakness and fatigue leaves. Where did he get this drink? I open my eyes feeling better. I take a deep breath and leave the room. As I walk through the hallway I halt when I see Sasha and Alex been in a heated arguments. They pause at the sight of me, Sasha rests on the wall while Alex avoids eye contact. "Alex-" "Can't you see I am talking to him?", Sasha snaps and holds him back. "Excuse us, Alex-" "Stay", I tilt my neck to arch my eyebr
SASHA VAHEMIR "I spoke to Aiden", Alex eyes light up and I smile as I arch my eyebrow. About? "He loved your idea- my idea now, I modified it" "Modified it how?" "Instead of the councils children to fight on the the pre annual bout, they will do that on the annual bout. If the pre annual bout is a success and a lot of people turn up, they will watch that in the annual bout. What do you think?", he places his thumb in his mouth and bite his nails. I can hear his heart beat fast. I smile. My opinion matters to him. "That is phenomenal ", he hit the conference table and raise his hands in an attempt to jubilate and I laugh. Alex is cute. "You needed to see their reaction. They were proud of me. The respect on their face. Damn, I wish you were there to see it", his laughter slowly dies as he smiles and stares admirably at me. "I wish I was there" "Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?", I chuckle as I shake my h
