FOURTY FOUR
"Oh, Sweetheart, how I have missed your voice," A man's voice said through the phone, a voice I know all too well.
I froze as I felt the blood drain from my face. I thought he was killed. This can't be happening. My day really does keep getting better and better.
"K-Kade..." I said shocked as I looked back at Tara and Jeremy to make sure they couldn't hear. They just stood there talking, good.
"I see you haven't forgot about me," He darkly chuckled.
"W-why do you have my mom's phone?," I asked but I was scared for the answer.
"We will talk later when you are alone, I see you got company with you at the mall. Don't tell no one about this conversation or I'll kill your beloved friends and your stupid parents," He chuckled before hanging up, sending chills through my body.
I stare at my phone in shock but I was also terrified.
Kade's watching me. I looked around for a second but couldn't spot him through all the people.
I stuck my phone back into my shorts back pocket.
The tears in my eyes were trying to fall but I didn't let them, I didn't want Jeremy done my back and I definately don't want to put no one in danger.
Kade won't stop till he gets what he wants and that terrified me. I could hear Fay whimpering in my head.
I walk back over to Tara and Jeremy and gave them a smile so they didn't suspect anything. I just want to get back.
"Let's go. I am getting really tired," I said putting on my biggest fake smile.
They both nodded and smiled back as we started to leave the mall.
I got to my room instead of Tyson's, not wanting to deal with another problem today.
I shut and lock my bedroom door and sit down on my bed as I waited for him to call me back.
I started to cry and then my phone rang.
I froze and slowly pulled my phone out. I take a deep breath in and look at the phone.
Kade.
I answered and put the phone to my ear, "Kade..." I breathed out.
"Hello, my sweet, Olivia," He chuckled.
The tears didn't stop coming, "Tell me why you have my mom's phone."
"You were always so stupid..." He laughed, "I have your parents. Duh," He said continuing to laugh.
My heart sank as the tears rolled down my cheeks. That was the answer I was dreading but deep down I knew.
"W-why?" I asked, my voice shaking.
"Simple, I want you," He said dryly, "Your parents for you. Quite a simple trade if you ask me."
I felt the room start to spin. I felt dizzy, my body was frozen to the bed. I felt like I couldn't breath. I felt sick. He is supposed to be dead. I needed him to be.
"K-Kade... W-why?" My voice shaking.
"Your parents killed my brother!," He snapped and I flinched at his tone, "I want to kill you. I want your parents to suffer a loss! You have three days time to make a decision or I will make it for you!," He snapped again before hanging up.
I was still frozen to my spot as I continued to cry.
I have to go back. I don't want my parents to be killed over me.
It was me he wants. In three days I will belong to Kade again.
I felt bile rise up in my throat and I ran into the bathroom, throwing up all the contents in my stomach into the toilet.
After I was done, I stood up and brushed my teeth to get rid of the nasty puke taste in my mouth.
Knock Knock Knock
I started to panic when someone knocked on my door. I wiped my face from the tears that still were falling and mustered up a fake smile before walking to my bedroom door. I unlocked it and opened it slowly to see Ari.
"Hey," I said faking a wide grin.
"I haven't seen you since the ball!," she chirpped before entering the room.
I sighed and shut my door before walking over to the bed next to Ari. She turned to look at me with a wide smile. She looked happy.
"I found my mate at the ball," She grinned.
"That's amazing, Ari!," I beamed at her.
She nodded her head, "He is amazing! I let him mark me!"
She moved her hair to the side and showed me her mark. It was a beautiful mark. A part of felt jealous about it but I couldn't be happier for her, she deserves it.
"It's beautiful, Ari. I am happy for you," I smiled.
"Yeah it's pretty great!," she beamed, "So how are you and Tyson?" she asked wiggling her eye brows.
I sighed, "Not great."
She frowned, "Why not?"
I am so honestly tired of answering that question. I felt rejected. The way he just ditched me without looking at me or saying anything and just practically ran out of the room, It hurt more then I wanted to admit or feel right now.
"Ari, It's just not good..." I murmered quietly as I trailed off.
She wrapped her arms around me giving me a tight hug before she pulled back. I don't like hugs when I am upset, it makes me just wanna cry.
"Did he hurt you?" She asked concerned.
"You're not gonna drop it till you know, will you?" I asked, sighing.
She shook her head, "No because now I am worried about you. You look pale. You don't look like you."
Damn, do I really look like shit? Jeremy said I wasn't myself either. These compliments are definately not boosting my self esteem.
"I accidently told him I love him..." I told her honestly as I looked down at my lap.
"You love him?" She asked with happiness laced in her voice.
I nodded, "Yeah."
"Did he not say it back? Is that why you are upset?" She asked.
I shook my head, "He didn't say it back but that's not why I am upset," I whispered, "He practically ran after I said it."
I heard her mutter something under her breath but I didn't bother to ask what she said. I just want to go to sleep and get this day over with.
She cleared her throat, "I have to go, my mate is wanting me."
I just nodded my head in response. I give her a small smile before she heads out of my room, closing the door behind her. I stand up and strip out of my shorts and shoes before I crawl under the covers, leaving my shirt on. I close my eyes as I let the warmth and the sleep take over.
