I spent the whole day thinking about what I was going to do but it seemed like I was deceiving myself. The servants a young lady of my age came to my room to call me for lunch.She told me she was the butler's daughter and one of the servants in the mansion. I told her I would go later though I wasn't planning to. I had lectures to take but I had become someone's prisoner. The butler came to call me for dinner, I told him I wasn't hungry, he tried to persuade me but I told him to leave me alone humbly.

RIVEN'S POV
No one had ever spoken to me like that, that woman had guts. I know many people think of me that way but saying it to me triggered something in me, especially from her. How could she say she will never love me,she even called me a devil. Am I really that? Is it wrong for me to look out for my sister. She will never understand this but I have to keep her away from Stuart,she can't be safe in that place yet she is my wife anyone could find out and try a dirty game on me.
Besides, I need to keep her around me, maybe this is selfish of me but can't I get something that...
" has she come out yet?" I asked the butler when he came to welcome me back.
He had told me that she had not eaten anything since she arrived. I told him to call her for dinner but she still refused. I decided to pick her myself, I couldn't believe my heart, was I scared of her!!! Why was my heart beating so fast and I felt my whole body become alert. I knocked at her door .
" But what do you want from me, didn't I tell you I am not hungry leave me alone ." She shouted with out opening, I knocked again.
"Don't you have things to do? What were you doing before I came? Just imagine I am not here." She finally spoke while opening the door and her eyes ran from my chest to my face as I was taller than her. She seemed shocked to see me but why did I seem surprised to see her yet I knew I was going to see her.
" you are coming with me for dinner " I told her. There is a way she raises her eye brows when I tell her to do something as if she can refuse yet she has no option. She shook her head and stood there looking at me. It was surprising, what was she planning. I walked away but she didn't follow me.i turned back to her.
" And why are you still standing there?" I questioned her
" yes I am having dinner with you no problem." She spoke but continued standing. She left me with no choice but carrying her, she tried to resist but carried her. When we sat at the dinning table, she just sat with out touching anything. The butler asked her what she wanted to eat but she remained silent.
I sent the butler a message and he started serving her. She looked at me then away. The butler had put her food before her but she didn't touch it.
"Why aren't you eating."I asked her
"How sure am I that you haven't poisoned me,you can do anything." She seemed serious with her statement. Why would I kill her. Like if I wanted to kill why use poison. However, the butler tested the food but she still refused to touch it. " Now why aren't you eating the food?" I questioned her again. I had not touched my food as well. She looked at me long enough before replying.
" Do you really think I can share a table with you and eat food after what you have done to me, just seeing you, my hatred for you is enough satisfaction. That is how much I hate you. You have no heart you devil." I couldn't take those words from her. I stood up and left her there but the sound I heard alerted me. She had pushed the plate on the ground and all the pieces of the broken plate scattered on the ground. I turned back to go but I heard a louder sound and guessed she had pushed everything off, i didn't need to look back. All the servants were picking, I told the butler to do the needful.
" If you don't eat food today, you won't step into the campus again" I told her then ordered Dawson to get her food.
" So now you want to take everything from me?" She asked weeping. I could feel the pain in her words but she is too stubborn. She needs a condition to agree to anything. I walked away.
Things felt different with her under the same roof. I remember the last and first time I had actually seen her when we were still in the same school, even the day when they read the letter that had been written by her friend to me, I didn't get a chance to see her. When I left the room with my friends, I asked them to find out what the case was. That evening, I was home when they told me the girl said to have written the letter was called " Lindsey" yet the letter had " leasey" could someone really forget his or her name especially when writing to someone they cared about after all those times of cross checking. However, they had noticed she had a friend called Leah.Alexa one of my friends then made a statement " Girls here have a habit of making combinations with there names, my sister Alexa and her friend Victoria keep calling each other "Aleria" it's there combination, do you think it's the case here because everyone seems too surprised that that girl did that, they are saying it doesn't sound like her" that statement opened our eyes.
That was when my other friend Cuthbat told us that his brother told him that his girlfriend told him he had noticed the way the two friends looked at each other when the letter was concluded something had not been right. The girl also told him that she is in the art class and that one day she found lea painting me,was she doing it for her friend, of course not. The next day I was earlier than usual at school. I found her the moment I got there .
