Warning Threat

ALEXAHis warning made me deeply afraid, but there was only one answer that I could give. My fear was that he might think that I was lying to him.I would never forgive myself if Noelle was hurt because of me.She didn’t deserve to be dragged into this.“Listen, I don’t know where Ivy is. She left on the eve of New Year,” I answered carefully.“Aha...so, you are finally confirming that she was indeed at yours, right?” He asked me icily.“I thought you weren’t doctor Lionel?” I asked suspiciously.The voice was still very different, but Doctor Lionel was the only one who confronted me about Ivy being here. He was the only one who knew her and felt that she wasn’t dead. He was the only one who was convinced that she was here at my house even though I argued otherwise.“How many times do you want me to repeat myself?” He asked me angrily. “You promised not to be stubborn, but you are really pissing me the hell off,” he snapped.“I am sorry,” I hastily apologized.The only reason I was ap

Still Keeping Secrets

MARKThat wasn’t what I was expecting to hear. It wasn’t even the reason I came.After the news, I had hurried out immediately, and just when I was halfway, with Cannon Dexter driving me, of course, Reyna had called me.“What is it?” I had asked her, almost snapping at her.Reyna knew why I needed to leave, and even Vector understood, only that he couldn’t come with me and I didn’t even need him to, and so I couldn’t understand why she was calling me back some minutes later.“I just got a text from Shirley, sir,” Reyna had told me.And that my heartbeat increased rapidly.“What did it say?” I had asked her.“She is with Miss Alexa right now, but I think you need to get there as fast as you can,” Reyna had informed me before I ended the call.Cannon Dexter was already going very fast, but I told him to go faster, not bothering about speed limit and being pulled over for driving too fast.The news clearly mentioned Alexa in conjunction to Ivy being alive. Why were the blogs asking Alexa

A Way Better Story

IVYDrew stayed longer than I expected because he did mention that he had something to do and he just came to drop off those things for me.Jack also returned from wherever he had gone, and then he went on to make that liquid he took the day before. Since Drew already brought me some things, he wasn’t worried about what I would eat, and I didn’t bother him much about it.“I never knew you cared this much about me, Jack,” I teased him after we were all done eating and Drew still lingered. “You told Drew to send me some things while pretending like you didn’t care and never wanted me here,” I added with a grin.But Jack’s jaw tightened with annoyance.“Don’t push it, Ivy,” he warned sternly.“Ew, I was just kidding,” I said, disappointed that he couldn’t even take a joke.“Jack doesn’t do jokes,” Drew chipped in lightly.Well, it was a good thing that he wasn’t anything like Jack.For the few hours that Drew and I had spent together now, I came to realize that he wasn’t like his father,

Behind My Bank

MARKI had to tell Shirley to give us some privacy because it was obvious that Alexa had been hiding a lot from me, and she was still willing to keep hiding things from me.“Are you going to tell me everything?” I asked Alexa.We had been alone in her bedroom for over an hour now, but Alexa was still choosing to be quiet. After the last statement that she made about an hour ago, Alexa had suddenly refused to keep talking.Then I had had to get Lora bring her some water and actually allow her to get some rest, and of course, Shirley had to leave the room completely, but still, Alexa wasn’t talking.“Alexa,” I called, trying hard not to get upset.Now wasn’t the time to get upset, but if she continued with the silence, it might actually lead me into getting upset because I couldn’t understand why she would keep doing that.“If you don’t tell me everything, how can I come in and help?” I asked her. “Or do you intend to handle this yourself?” I asked her further.Alexa shook her head.She

My Only Chance

MARK“Why didn’t you say anything to me, Alexa?” I asked her.I just had to ask because it broke me to know that these things were going on and I was right here, but Alexa just couldn’t tell me anything.“I wasn’t supposed to say anything,” Alexa said.“Says who?” I asked her.Alexa got up with more restlessness.“I don’t know, Mark,” she stated. “Can you just stop asking me all these questions?” Alexa asked me. “Noelle is in danger and not being told is all you care about right now?” She questioned me further.It was obvious that she was very upset and more troubled now, and this was the moment I was supposed to be calm and quiet, but for how long?“Have you seen what your silence is costing you?” I asked Alexa, blurting out the words before I could realize that I shouldn’t have said it in that manner.Alexa became more upset and hurt.“So, now, this is my fault?” Alexa asked me angrily.“I didn’t mean it that way, Alexa,” I said.But her anger had already gone off.“What exactly do

The Voice

MARK“Mr. Mark,” the cops said when they got to me.“I need you both to listen more carefully,” I started firmly. “Something has come up,” I added.They became worried instantly.“Is Miss Alexa okay?” One of them asked.“Is there somethin you need us to do?” The other one asked.“The only thing I need you both to do is ensure that she doesn’t leave this house, unless I have given the permission to,” I instructed them.They nodded in obeisance.“Keep your ears to the ground and call me as soon as you hear anything. I want Alexa safe and rested, alright?” I asked them.“Of course, Mr. Mark. You can always count on us,” they responded at the same time, much to my relief.“Good,” I said.Then I left them and went to my car.As much as I hated to leave now that Alexa needed my presence whether or not she knew it, I had to. Again, saving Noelle and earning Alexa’s trust was very important to me right now, and I would do anything possible to get it.I drove all the way to Vector’s house.“Ma

My Old Life

IVYNow that I knew that there weren’t any deer to be worried about, I stepped out of the cabin through the back door.I needed the space.After Drew left, a certain kind of tension brewed between Jack and me, and I just needed some air. It was a good thing I wasn’t hungry and he didn’t come out with me.This was my moment.The sun was out and I knew that I was going to get sunburned, but I didn’t mind. It was a good feeling to be able to be out and not have to worry about being seen.Or about deer ripping out my flesh from my bones.I didn’t walk too far. The moment I found somewhere comfortable to sit, I perched there. As I allowed my thought to drift afar, my eyes sat on the cabin.“What a little, yet cozy thing,” I muttered to myself.No matter how cozy it was, it just wasn’t something that I wanted for myself. I wanted to be back in Paris, living the life I used to live before everything went south.I wanted to be back in Mr. Silver’s house as his stepdaughter, and moving around

She Did This!

IVY“What?”I was very dumbfounded by the information Jack just gave me. The words were still ringing in my head.“Everyone knows now, Ivy,” Jack repeated deeply.I stared at Jack as though the words were foreign to my ears, and instantly, only one thought came to mind.“Alexa,” I muttered.“What?” Jack asked because he didn’t hear what I said.“It’s Alexa,” I said, a little more loudly.“Who is that?” Jack asked, but almost immediately, it dawned on him who I was talking about. “Your stepsister,” he mused.“I can’t believe that she would do this,” I said, my anger rising.“She knew you were alive?” Jack asked me.“Of course, Jack!” I responded. “I had to go to the house when I escaped from that deranged doctor, but she kept asking me to leave and threatening to expose me. Even after leaving, she still did it?” I asked no one else in particular.I thought Alexa was better, but apparently, I was wrong. She wasn’t any better.How could she do this to me?I left her alone, and she had th

Consequences Of Failing

MARK“Have you recalled who the voice belongs to?” I asked Vector for the umpteenth time.Ever since he said that the voice sounded familiar, I gave him time to try as much as he could to recognize it, but Vector hadn’t been able to. I was even beginning to think that he really didn’t recognize the voice.Or maybe he thought he did.“Not yet, Mark,” Vector told me.“Shit,” I responded in frustration. “We can’t spend all day waiting for you,” I added.Noelle was still with this bastard and I had limited time to prove to Alexa that she could count on me. Just as I thought of Alexa, she called her own cell phone using the house line, and I picked up almost immediately.“Alexa,” I said into the phone.“Mark, have you found her?” Alexa asked immediately.I swallowed hard and looked at Vector, who in turn, was also staring at me.Goodness, I hated that I would have to give Alexa a negative response, but I couldn’t lie about this. She would even get enraged if she found out that since I left

The Proof

MARK“Are you sure of what you just said, Vector?” I asked Vector.“I have been thinking about it since I heard his voice, and yes, he is the owner of that voice,” Vector said.But still, I doubted him.“Vector, you do know that if you are wrong, it is going to be messier, right?” I asked Vector further. “Being wrong is going to cost me everything,” I added.Vector stared into my eyes with confidence and said, “Mark, I am sure.”There was still doubt in my bones because this was Donald Shell’s brother, and a detective as well. If anything went wrong, I would go in for it. Vector didn’t have much to lose as I did.Also, Donald Shell was my sworn enemy.If this came out to be a false allegation, Donald Shell would have an opportunity to attack me all over again. For now, I did have the upper hand, and I didn’t want to give it to him any time soon. He was a devil.“What if it turns out that you were mistaken?” I asked Vector. “When we were dealing with the case of Oscar, I heard his voic
