068 The Last Day

Scarlett's POV

The guy left the room, leaving us tied to the chair for a whole day.

I know because while the window opens to what seems like the inside of ant abandoned building, the change of light still somewhat indicates time. But knowing that doesn't help us at all. The dangerous stranger is no longer our biggest threat - Hunger is.

We haven't had food, or even water for a very long time.

"Where did he go?! Is he just going to leave us like this forever?!"Some hours ago, Ava was capable of vigorous complaints like this, and now she can barely talk.

But she has a point. If the guy just left us at a random abandoned building, then there is less of a chance for anyone to locate us while he can go and get all the alibi he needs. And condemning

him is not even the problem because we would have died way before that could happen.

My stomach groans.

My appetite has grown bigger since the pregnancy. The baby has grown used to his aunt.Aurora and aunt Lilith feeding him all kinds of cuisine on and off meals. I was complaining to them about gaining weight, and now I only regret not gaining more. The baby needs food.

"Seriously? How delicate are you?" Ava mocks me. Glad to see that she still has the energy to talk, but I won't take such a complaint from THE spoiled princess herself!

"What can I say? The privilege of being Mrs. Knight," I keep my voice light, "Three meals a day with me, and Sebastian never misses one."

Ava should know,- she was the reason behind those. But

Pretty sure she has been practicing this lie every day before she goes to sleep, "He loved me for so many years after, and that's
