Chapter 7

• "Darling, where are your clothes?" She looks for purses.
• I say in a whisper, "I don't have any."
• “Hmm. So, I guess we'll have to go shopping tomorrow," she says with a big smile.
• "What do you think? We're going to order food, and then I'll show you around. All right? What are you hungry for? She looked at me eagerly and said, "We can get anything you want."
• “Oh! I don't want to be a pain. I don't eat much," I said in a nervous tone.
• She came up to me and put both hands on my shoulders. "Bridget, could you? You've been busy all day, and I know you haven't eaten anything. Let's get you something to eat, please.
• "I bet I'd like to eat a steak." I'm almost going to whisper back. Her whole face is lit up by a beautiful smile.
• "A girl who is just like me. Let's get some steaks. You like potatoes and salad too?" she asked as she took out her phone. I give a happy nod. I haven't eaten steak in a long time.
• "Hi, Dan! I'd like to order something for the Alpha room. Yes, I want two steaks with my favourite potatoes and two salads. So, that's it. Thanks, Dan, you're the best." She puts the phone down.
• "Alright, so it will be here soon. Let's take you on a tour."
• She took my hand and led me out of the room and into the hallway.
• We walk back down the hall towards the lift. "This is the fitness centre, "She says as she swipes the key card through the lock. It opens up to a big room with more types of exercise equipment than our pack training centre has.
• In front of the treadmills and weight machines, there are TVs on the walls. I don't even know what some of the machines do.
• "You can use it whenever you want. This land is only for the Alpha, but Liam and I come up here to use it sometimes. "There's no one else," she said. We left the room and went down the hall to the other rooms.
• She stopped in front of a door as she opened it and said, "This is one of my favourites."
• "This is the movie theatre. On the weekends, we try to get together and watch a movie. She says with a laugh, "The guys need free time or they'll work themselves to death." Each of the three rows of four seats in the room faces a big white screen.
• All of the walls are covered with a dark cloth, making the huge room dark. Again, we go out into the hallway.
• We walked by a few doors that she tells me aren't being used yet. Then we came to a room and stopped.
• "We've been calling this the library," She opened the door to the room, and I looked at the bookshelf, which is full of books.
• Wood is used to make everything in the room.
• The bookshelves are made of dark wood, and the floor is made of wood with a thick forest rug on it. On one side, there is a big wooden table and chairs. On the other side is a small bar. There are two nice brown leather armchairs in the middle.
• "After a long day, the boys come here for a drink. But most of the time, it's empty," she said.
• "Oh, the food just came! Let's go!" She grabbed my hand in a hurry and led me back to the condo.
• When we got there, the smell of the food was so good that my stomach started to grumble. Daniella smiled and laughed, and we sat down to eat. I'm a little sad when it's all over because everything tastes so good.
• Daniella also asked them to bring some wine to the top. I had never tried the wine before, but I took a small sip. I know for sure that I don't really like this, but Daniella seems to like it.
• "You'll get to like it," she tells me when she sees that I don't like it.
• "Okay, Bridget. Can I call you Smith?" She did.
• "I'd prefer Bridget."
• She smiled. "All right, Bridget. What do you like to do? She asked, "Any hobbies?" as she piled our empty plates on top of each other. I say in a shy voice, "Well, I like to paint and draw."
• "That's beautiful. When do you paint?" She did.
• "Not often. If my father didn't want money, he wouldn't let me paint. He would make me paint things and sell them as soon as I finished. Back at home, I cooked and cleaned. Don't get me wrong, I also like to bake. I'll also clean and cook here. I'll do anything you want me to. I shouldn't have talked that way about my dad. Please don't tell him!" I start yelling nervously, almost to the point of panic.
• "Shh, honey, it's okay," she says, putting her hand out to take mine.
• "None of that will be necessary here. We won't tell your dad anything, either. Why don't we go see a movie instead? Have you been to a movie theatre before?" she inquired. I gave a head shake. She just laughed, and then she got up and poured herself another glass of wine. We're going to the movies.
• She asked me what I wanted to watch, but I couldn't tell her. So, she picked the movie "When Harry Met Sally." I enjoyed everything about it. I could tell Daniella was a little distracted, but I was really into the movie. When she decided to watch one more movie, I couldn't have been happier.
• She chose "The Notebook," which I also really liked. I must have fallen asleep though because the next thing I remember is being carried into my room and put to bed.
• The face of Alpha Jackson is right next to mine.
• "Even if it's the last thing you and your purple eyes do, I will make you scream in pain."
• He hissed in my ear and stabbed the blade into my body, making it go all the way down. Even though I'm in a lot of pain, I can't make a sound.
• My eyes are filled with tears. I began to barely breathe. "Why don't you yell!" In anger, he spat. He took the knife and cut across my stomach with it.
• It's pure silver and it hurts. I screamed and inhaled deeply. He drives the knife in, and I feel pain all over my body.
• But I won't shout... I'm not going to yell.
