CHAPTER 02

{ Zavia's POV }

"Zavia, please don't do this! It's not save for you! You have never been out of this place in your whole life of 17 year!." Nancy pleaded from the top of the porch stairs. I was already down the block ignoring her. I walked in my mom's room, all her memories, her sweet scent flooded on my mind. Tears welled up in my eyes.

Kicking these thought out of my mind, I opened her cupboard, to get some cash! Little did I know to live in this mean world the most important thing is money. There was almost 8,000 dollars and a debit card. I was not sure about the card but anyways I put it in my coat. I didn't know if it was enough or not but I took it all.

I decided to escape out of the house as soon as possible because, in morning I eavesdrop Nancy and Jolie's conversation. They expelled Noah out because he was against them. They planned to give me drugs till I pass on forever. They are planning this because,  my mom made an policy which states, " If Zavia Carter dies or anything happens to her, the person who is going to possess this property is Nancy redwood, Jolie steals and Noah Gage." Yeah. My mother and I trusted them blindly, but they betrayed us!.

As I opened the door a shiver ran down to my spine. My heart was pounding loud against my chest. As I shivered I pulled my coat tighter, I walked out of my house.I think I took amiss that the money was enough to check into a motel. I knew it would not last very long,  so I planned on getting a job and moving on with my life.

The night was late and the town was dark. Most people were sound asleep. My foot steps were heavy and loud. As I explored the area, there was beautiful big red brick houses but not as big as mine. There was pretty flowers and shrubs around almost all the houses. I awestruck at the scenario and the scent from the flowers was breathtaking.

After what seemed like hours of walking endlessly, I was tired, then my eyes landed on a board. It was written motel. My heart raced as I walked towards the motel's door.I placed my hand on the door's handle and pushed it slowly, hesitant to walk in, but I did anyway. I stood infront the middle age lady.

"May I help you?" She questioned, standing behind her wooden desk.

"Can I get a room for four days?" I asked her confidently, determined not to let her see my fear. After doing all the registration, she handed me a keycard.

The room was small. There was a shabby bed in the centre of the room, a worn side table and a bathroom.

Sprawling on the bed, I started playing with my hands to divert my mind. I twist and turn the whole night.

As the sun rays peeped through the window. I got up, my body was aching by the time. I did my morning routine.

Then headed out of my room. I enquired from the lady about supermarket and City centre. She wrote and gave me the location and I kick started my day.

After a lot of struggling I made it to centre to buy some clothes. I was looking for some suitable clothes suddenly I bumped into something hard. I rubbed my forehead.

Suddenly somebody grabbed me by my arms. My voice screamed so high pitched on this sudden action. I didn't even know who he was!

As I looked up to see, a gasp escaped my lips. He was deadly attractive. Not a single flaw in his face. He had black hairs and grey green eyes. I noticed the wolf symbol tattoo on his neck.

"What's your name?" He raised his eyebrows at me.

"Mhmm...hmm.. My nam-... Name is Zavia Carter." I shuttered.
