it's been three days since Alex brought me to this island with no soul on it
Although I was away from Zack I still had confidence that he would come to my aid.
" Lucy"I turned to find Alex staring at me with a down face.
Even though he both he and Zack had the same face, they were both worlds apart
" I know you're angry at me for taking you away in such a manner… but still with time you would get use to being mine.
Just eat something or at least drink water if not for anything then for yourself " He said and a guy carrying a tray stepped in
" I died the day you separated me from my husband and family and no matter what I'll never love you because I belong only to ..."
" Zack Zack ZACK all you think about is Zack.. " He cut me off screaming which startled me
" When would you forget him? you know very well I am not stopping you from returning to that husband of yours but remember the consequences of your actions would be borne by your beloved sister in-law..
He's your bodyguard from now on " he said pointing towards the guy with the try and left the room
Things suddenly began to feel as if I was between the devil and the red sea, but my father won't be so cruel to me
Not in a thousand years
" Here have it " The guy Alex left behind offered me a glass of water
" No thanks" I rejected by blinking twice
" Do you mind if I sit ?" He asked and I looked up to him trying to read his expression but there was none so I nodded
"So I heard from the boss that you haven't eaten nor drank water for the pass three days.. do you mind me asking why ?"
" Just stick to your job and don't go around sticking your nose in other people's business" I scoffed trying to device a strategy to run away
" I'mm sorry then but if you starve yourself to death just because you want to return to your husband..
What's his name.. Zack
Then would he be happy welcoming you with open hands saying Well-done my dear wife you did a good job by starving your self.. " He said with sarcasm
" Well you just have to use your brains some times and stop being stubborn…"
he said and left
Though I didn't like the way he spoke to me his words did make sense I wouldn't want Zack to see me all skinny when we reunite.
I picked up the tray of food and finish every bit of food in it after which I kept wondering what condition Zack , Abi and the kids where in
*. *. *
My new bodyguard came back to my room towards the evening and this time he just stood their quietly watching making my a bit uncomfortable
" what are you starring at? " I questioned
" I was just wondering what your husband would do if he finds out I spent some private time with you before he rescues you
" he with a lazy look which I found very cute
" What's your name ? "
" Ack "
" Well Mr Ack my husband isn't a monster like his brother
He's understanding and intelligent " I said with pride
" Hmm..You just keep raining praises on your husband, he's surely a lucky guy " He said with a smile and a familiar mischief glowed in his eye.
Although he's one of Alex's men I doubt he's a bad person and he doesn't seem like one
" Alright good night Mrs Ken I'll be on my way now " He said and I nodded.
I wasn't sleepy so I went back to staring at the sea though the balcony.
If only it wasn't so high up then maybe I would have escape through it
I was so lost in though that I didn't realize the hand wrapped around my waist.
I suddenly felt the breathing of someone on my neck which sent shivers down my spine bringing me back to my senses
" Zack" I called not turning around with my heart throbbing hard against my rib cage
" Zack " I called again but this time the grip around my waist began to tighten
" You're hurting me " I cried
" That's how I feel when ever i hear you call Zacks name over and over again" Alex said in a calm but angry tone
" Alex please let go you're hurting me" I begged
" Why don't you just forget about him? When would it sink into to that you're now mine? "
" It would never" I screamed and pushing him away
" It would never sink because I only belong to Zack and only him..
The next time you come into my room without using the door it won't end well " I threatened as tears threatened to fall
" I wouldn't want to keeping your hopes high so it better sink in that you're mine and Zack is never coming to get you..
The earlier you understand that the better it is for everyone" he said and disappeared
I ran into my bed with tears in my eyes.
I wasn't aware of the game Alex was playing but I just hope it ended quickly

" Why was uncle Alex so wicked ? " Carlene said in tears and her Grammy couldn't stop sighing while patting her
" So Dad didn't go to save Mum? "
" Well your Dad did go...but he also didn't " Her Grammy said with a mischievous smile
" What do you mean? "
" Who is Ack ? " She asked with an eyebrow raised
" Ack is...wait Ack, Zack..that means.. "
" You're right.. " Her Grammy said with a smile
" Your Dad was always present so your Mum was in safe hand.. " she said before Yawning as she felt her eyelid become heavy
" what else happened? " Carlene asked and her Grammy couldn't help but sigh as she invited trouble unknown to herself
" Carlene can we continue this later..as you can see I'm sleepy "
" Now grammy just complete it unless.. "
" Complete what ? " Carlene turned to find her Mum staring with a questioning look
" Good thing you are hear now go on and tell her about your love story " Grammy said and Lucy was left speechless
" Mum how could you ? I thought we weren't ever going to tell them" She complaining walking closer
" They aren't babies anymore so go on and continue from where I stopped " On hearing this Carlene turned her full attention towards her mum who had the don't even dare look on
" Mum go on it wouldn't kill you just tell me " Carlene persisted
" Okay where were you ? " Lucy asked giving up
" where uncle kidnapped you and Dad came as Ack..
well tell me all the action side and please skip your romance okay " Carlene rolled her eyes making her mum chuckle.
" Actually when i decided to follow Alex, I was just like Carmela.." she said with a faint smile
" I didn't have control over my powers unlike you who has become a mastermind..
so your father had to train me and I swear it wasn't easy "
