~ My body gradually stretched from underneath the warm blankets. As I felt myself easing awake. My eyes flicker open while I exhale and stretch my arms above my head. This sudden realization sparked my memory from last night's dark phase.
I flew up to a sitting position to where I regrettably found myself. On Cory's bedside but thankfully he wasn't anywhere in view as I nervously glanced around. Even the bathroom door was wide open. I took another huge breath out and brushed my right fingers through the roots of my hair. My heartbeat was extremely unsteady.
I've never fallen asleep so deeply like that in my life, I believed. While untangling my fingertips from the top of my scalp. A huge regret boiled in the pit of my stomach but what choice did I have, I reminded myself.
The cold out here is more intense compared to the city. So fine! Maybe he was right about that! But it's whatever! Might as well not dwell about it. I have no control over my body temperature against the dark phase. Both the suns that orbit around the planet rotate further out about once a month. Unfortunately, are female Kind suffers it.
On a more cheery thought, at any random time, those two suns will orbit closer to the planet. Which will cause this massive heatwave depending on how close the two suns get. Since it's different every time it happens about once a month. That is when the hybrid males suffer from having a higher body temperature.
I kinda chuckled to myself on that thought. As I looked around and randomly think it was odd. I never felt him get up and leave the bed. Kinda figured that would have awoken me. The way he moves around is kinda creepy. He could literally sneak up on me and I'd never know it.
Even his men move around in the same stealthy kinda way. I never even heard any of them approach me from yesterday's incident with getting caught crossing the roadway. Until I saw the five men step in my pathway.
Seems like I won't get out of this place. Even though I don't want to give up, I might have to.
Goodness, I can't allow myself to feel defeat and need to keep fighting. Regardless, if everyone keeps telling me I am no longer a slave here and claim I am a Princess rank. But I still don't wish to be here especially since I feel like a prisoner!
Everyone may claim I am not a prisoner but I keep ending up locked away inside Cory's bedroom. If I am truly considered a Princess rank. Then why act like there is something off about the whole thing and lock me away?
I slightly shake my head away from these questions. It's probably best to get out of bed and shower, I felt. Then stare at the wall or something. Since I am not allowed out of this room. Surely boredom will take me after some time. But after what happened yesterday. I'm sure being stuck in this room would be my punishment...
I crawled out of bed from Cory's side and peeked out the baloney doors while I was walking to my bedside. To look at the sky to see the sun's position for the daily time.
Seems like maybe I've slept in from the way the sun looks. Normally I am up earlier than this. The businessmen never allowed me to sleep long. But it seems like Cory isn't being that way with me.
I don't know what to think about being taken by Cory or how he actually feels towards me. It's more like he's just being a control freak.
Then to top it off, I know he's hiding something from me. Yet, I just wish I knew what it is he's keeping from me. Then again this whole thing could only be his trap to keep me forever. I pondered on that for a second as I grab some clothes from my closet. Then I went to the bathroom and closed myself in. I think it's time for a good relaxing soak, I happily thought.
Once the jacuzzi was set to a hot temperature and filled with bubbles. I undressed, got in, and relaxed back. Into the jets massaging my spine and upper shoulder blades. As I took in the lilac lavender flowery smells into my nostrils. I closed my eyes exhaling out a deep relieving breath.
It felt so nice to be alone away from Cory, and his Primaries. Especially JJ since he's the one who keeps running these painful procedures on me. Although, unlike Rachel he's been seemingly kind. Ugh, I hope I never have to see Princess Rachel again. Her nuttiness surpassed my older Masters' wives. And that's saying something since those Businessmen Society ladies were crazy.

An hour likely passed as kept enjoying my relaxation. Yet, I was surprised no one came in to check on me. So it's likely time I get cleaned up before someone does.
I grabbed the body wash from the low half stand table by the jacuzzi. And poured some rich-smelling rose flower body wash into my palm. Then started to rub it down into my arms. But then, I felt this weird small bump from underneath my right forearm nearby the wrist. I felt this tiny capsule-size pill partly losing up from behind my bone.
What on our planet is this thing? I don't ever remember this being here.
Then it suddenly dawned on me. Oh my goodness, it must be the tracker Cory placed inside! Oh yes! What else would it be since I never found it before?
Using my fingertips I examined it more closely. It was deep but not deep enough that I couldn't cut it out. It will be painful but I've had far worst. And this will be well worth the pain if it means the key to my freedom. Cory won't be able to track me down. I'll only have to figure out how to outwit his men.
I was in such excitement and quickly cleaned my body, washed my hair, then got out. Once I was dried I put on a pair of dark bootcut jeans and a sweetheart-cut velvet blue corset top. It was held up by shoulders straps. It looked cute and very attractive on me, I felt. Next, I brushed and dried my wet hair. My eyes were beaming in the mirror from being ecstatic.
After I straighten my hair I still had this plastered grin on my face. As I opened the door while I stared at my barefoot toes. I took my first step out past the doorframe. When I looked up, I slightly jumped out of my skin from being startled. By finding Cory working on his laptop from on his side of the neatly made bed.
Barely moving his head from only shifting his eyes. He looked up at me from his laptop. He narrowed his eyes at me and tilted his head. But his face was blank and showed nothing I could read. He only showed this intimidating ogle. I couldn't tell if he was sour or gawking at my outfit. Which sent a chill down my spine from how he peered his dark marble green eyes straight through me. My smirking grinned lips faded while I stood in a frozen stance. He slowly veered his eyes back down at his work, as I exhale lightly.
Now I think back some, and I can't recall hearing him come in. Although, I never did check the living room. So he could've been in the room. But I never heard him make the bed. Even Cookie was loud about doing that. The way this hybrid-man moved about was creepy. As suddenly his voice startled me...
