THE X-FAMILY : EPISODE 21 – 40
Episode 26
By Faith Lucky
The sound of the rain was so heavy, it hit hard against the window. But Octavia loved the weather. She loved how cold it was.
She laid on the bed, trying to get some sleep while Mica stood facing the window, smoking.
Long minutes passed and finally, Mica put out the cigarette stick, left the window and went to sit on the edge of the bed where Octavia laid.
“Sit up, Octavia. We need to talk” her tone was strict.
Octavia could tell when he sister was serious and when she she was joking and at this moment, she knew her sister had something extremely important to say.
Although, she felt so dizzy, her eyes were overly heavy, but she forced herself to sit, drawing the blanket to herself.
Mica allowed a few seconds pass before speaking up.
“I know you’re running away from someone” she began.
She sat in a way Octavia couldn’t see her face.
“I know someone’s threatening your life and that’s the reason you’re here – to protect yourself. Now, all I want to know, Octavia, is who is he. What’s your offence and why did you have to come here all of places?”
Octavia froze. Her eyes gleamed in the darkness as she stared at the side of Mica’s face. What’s she talking about?
What’s she ..
How did she even know?? Has she been spying on her??
Mica turned and faced her.
“Talk to me, Octavia! I need answers” she said huskily, but Octavia was still too shocked to speak.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door and it interrupted the moment, tho Octavia’s breath was still held in suspension.
Mica was pissed and wondered who it could be. It was dmn late and ruined her important moment.
She stood up from the bed in anger and stormed towards the door and when she opened it, she discovered it was Draco
“Draco?” She called in surprise, he anger lessening a little.
What’s he doing there?
“Is…Is there a problem?” She asked, still holding the door.
“Not at all, Mica. But Khalid wants Octavia in his room” he replied and Mica was taken abacked by the incongruous request.
Wants Octavia in his room? At this time and weather?
“But what for? Did she do anything wrong?” She asked.
“I don’t know, Mica. He just gave me the order”
Octavia could hear then clearly from the room and she didn’t know what exactly to be more scared of – Mica’s questions?or Khalid’s request?
Why would he want her in his room? What did she do wrong?
Mica heaved with anger, presently angry and worried.
She turned away from the door and went closer to Octavia.
“The Master wants you…in his room” she said and Octavia felt her lungs become dry.
For Christ sake, what did she do wrong again? What was her offence?
After the morning time she had with him, she didn’t break any more rules, right? She didn’t do anything wrong. So what could possibly be the problem now?
She gulped nervously and left the bed, her legs feeling so heavy and cold.
Mica followed her out of the room as they walked behind Draco.
They left their own block and had to get beaten by the rain before getting to Khalid’s block and approaching his room, Mica had to stop because she wasn’t called upon
But she was overly worried and hoped her sister would be fine.
Octavia proceeded with Draco, her heart beating heavily. They got to the door and Draco knocked on it.
There was no reply and Octavia thought they should’ve returned or waited, but to her disappointement, Draco opened the door and walked in with her
The room was almost dark and had a soft glow on it and Octavia spotted Khalid in front of the wardrobe.
“She’s here, Master” Draco noted, noticing how nervous Octavia was.
“You can leave” he said in a rugged tone and Draco bowed and left.
Octavia was almost shaken, but fought so hard to maintain her stance. She hated displaying her weakness.
“Take of.f your ¢lo.thes, Octavia. And get on the be.d” Khalid’s command came almost immediately and that was enough to trigger Octavia’s heartbeat.
She felt her bladder become full instantly. Oh, not again. What did she do this time around?
She bent her head and couldn’t make a move, her breath wavered.
Khalid turned and shot her a surprise stare.
“Wasn’t I clear enough?” He asked and noticing the ordersity in his voice, she forced herself into action.
She moved her hands to the tip of her dress and started moving it up.
