My eyes glanced over at the table full of the different tools for restraint. In the end, I didn’t tie myself up
and Hayden wasn’t even bothered to tie me up. It wasn’t like I could escape from this room anyways
and perhaps; I didn’t even want to escape.
‘Stay here. When everything is over, you can leave,’
Hayden’s words came back to haunt me, and my mind couldn’t get his emotionless face out of my
mind. I sighed for the hundredth time that day as I tossed and turned on the soft king-sized bed. What
is he thinking? How can he tell me that I could leave like it didn’t matter anymore? Is he really fine with
me leaving?
My brows furrowed together before I closed my eyes and covered them with my hands. I’m going crazy
and it hasn’t been a day yet that I’ve been locked up in here. The territory that I had fought so hard to
earn had been taken from me. I can’t roam around the mansion anymore and now I wasn’t just
confined to my rooms. My territory is now much smaller, and it didn’t even have any windows!
I miss my art studio already and Little Hayden, although he turned out to be traitor. Why is that dog so
in love with Harvey? It didn’t make any sense.
However, that wasn’t what I missed the most right now and it wasn’t what was the most important thing
right now…
‘I can’t be bothered to discipline a girl that doesn’t obey my orders,’
Hayden’s words came back to me again. My mind replayed it over and over and it was driving me
insane. It was like he was still here with me and saying those words to me. I didn’t just remember his
words. I felt the pain anew each time his words replayed itself in my mind. I remembered everything
about it, his face when he said it, his tone of voice when he said it, and how I felt when he said it.
Perhaps he was right, and he shouldn’t be bothered anymore with a girl who doesn’t obey his orders.
My chest felt tight, and tears stung the back of my eyes as I thought about the possibility that perhaps
he didn’t want me anymore. Without realizing it, and without the ability to stop my own tears, I started
crying again. Although, I knew that it wouldn’t help with anything, I continued to cry some more.
…
The next morning, I woke up with painful and very swollen eyes. To be fair, I had no idea if it was
morning or not because I didn’t know when I fell asleep and how long I slept for. If my biological clock
was functioning fine, then it was supposed to be morning. The room was silent but that didn’t mean that
I enjoyed the peace and quiet. Since I wasn’t tied to the bed like the last time that this happened, I
could get up and relieve myself in the toilet without Hayden’s help.
As I sat down on the toilet, I wondered if I had made the wrong decision not to tie myself up. If I had
tied myself up, maybe Hayden would be here because he would know that I had to go to the toilet and
that I couldn’t go without his help. Then again, perhaps he had no problem with me peeing right on the
bed.
“I look like a mess…” I muttered to myself as I stared at my own reflection in the mirror.
The bathroom was decent and had everything including a shower and a bathtub. Everything seemed
new and I wouldn’t be surprised if it was recently renovated. I took a shower, feeling thankful that
Hayden didn’t insist that I tie myself up to the bed. When my body was cleaner, I felt slightly better.
There weren’t any clothes in the room, so I wore a white bathrobe after I was done with my shower.
I sat back down on the large bed. Now what?
Do I just pray that Hayden would remember that he left me in here? Do I pray harder so that he’ll pay
me a visit?
Just as those thoughts were running through my mind, the door to the room started sliding open. My
eyes widened as I realized what was happening. My body moved on its own as I jumped out of bed and
headed towards the door.
“Hayden!” I cried out his name happily.
My excitement soon evaporated when I realized that Hayden wasn’t on the other side of the door. In
fact, there was no one on the other side of the door. I looked down at the cart of food and drinks that
had been placed right at the entrance of the room. This was certainly an elaborate way to delivery
breakfast. I bit my lower lip in disappointment as tears stung the back of my eyes.
Why do I get emotional so easily these days? I was so disappointed that Hayden wasn’t there that it All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
hurt so badly.
This was surely a lack of security based on my previous experiences. There were no guards at my door
and with the door open now, I could easily walk around the hallway and other places in this
underground floor.
However…
‘I can’t be bothered to discipline a girl that doesn’t obey my orders,’
His words put an immediate halt to any thought or action that I may have thought about. I was too
scared of the consequences to disobey any of his orders anymore and it wasn’t because I was scared
of his punishments. I was scared that Hayden would no longer care about me…
If this is a test then, I’m not going to fail it for sure this time.
I approached the cart of food and began pushing it into my new room. Once I had returned into the
room with the cart of deliveries, the metal door immediately began sliding close. The door closed firmly
before it locked itself. I picked up a small piece of handwritten note that was placed on top of the cart.
‘Eat’
The message was short and simple. It was very much like Hayden to write something like this.
Honesty, there was too much food for one person, and I also found out that apart from the food, other
necessities were arranged for me as well including my clothes. I guess, I’m going to be stuck in here for
a while longer.
