Alys P.O.V
Why did Toby say he had known me for years, I had only just met him a month ago. Yeah, it's been a month and im still stuck here enduring the same torture. I haven't seen Edward since the fight I had with him and his guest. I was glad I hadn't seen him because I don't want to know what he has in store for me. I was going to get more answers on why im here today, i'm pretty anxious. I ended up going to the garden because it was always what I did when I got stressed out. It was a beautiful day, but I don't even know where I am. At least I would be finding out today. "Remember me?" Uh oh, Edward had his hands gripping in my arm, refusing to let me run. What do you want, I asked annoyed and scared at the same time. "Don't think I don't remember what happened at the dinner." "Start walking, or i'll make your punishment worse." Against my will I started walking, I've always been pretty stubborn so I purposely stepped on his feet a few times. Once we got to his office, I saw a few people there. I saw Toby, he looked concerned, I saw a girl about my age, I saw Rye, and another dude that also looked around my age. When he finally let go of my arm I saw it starting to turn red. Great another bruise, I said this sarcastically, and I said it out loud to maybe get people to laugh. I don't know why but I was in more of a happy mood today. But I saw no one was laughing, in fact they all looked scared for me and just angry. So I just looked down to avoid all the stairs I was getting. "Anyways the reason I brought you here is because we have important matters to discuss." I felt even more funny today so I said, the only serious matter we need to discus is your ugly outfit choice today. I started laughing hysterically, I eventually fell on the floor and started laughing even harder. I didn't say this out loud but, he looks like a zebra, pirate, and a traffic cone mixed. I then got yanked up off the floor, which I kind of expected. "Shut up, and don't talk unless told to", I could see the anger in Edwards voice and wanted to laugh some more. I rolled my eyes, because that was just stupid. "Ryes daughter Anna will be staying here, to work off the debt her father can't pay." I saw her start to cry and I felt really bad. I then watched him shoot Rye, and kill him. I can't say I was sad he was dead but I did feel even worse for Anna. Welp, I can't say this was fun, can I leave now? "Yes, but you will face your consequences soon." I left without saying anything, because anything I would have said would have got me killed. Toby also left and caught up to me down the hall. I want answers now. "Okay, let's go to the garden." On the way there he talked to me about how I have to be more careful, otherwise I will get killed. Ok, so how have you known me for over for years? "I have been working for Edward for a decade, not by choice though." "I was about to get killed by those night creatures, and he saved me from them." "So in return I said I would work for him for a few days." " I didn't know how bad of a person he was but he started showing his bad traits real soon." "I tried to leave but he wouldn't let me, he did anything he could to keep me here." "Eventually I had enough of him torturing me, so I stayed." "Did you ever wonder where he went for days at a time?" No, he said he was very close with his family, I trusted him. "He came here, a lot of people relied on him." "He would send me out to your house every day to make sure you were okay, there were bad creatures after you." Why? "Edward is hated by a lot of people." I wish I would have known about this. "He is very good at hiding things, you wouldn't have found out even if the FBI was working with you to watch him." "What else do you want to know?" Where are we? "We are on earth but we aren't." What do you mean by that? "We are on earth but no one human can see us, unless we generate enough power." "Everything we see humans don't." "So you can see this fortress, and you can get locked in rooms here, humans only see this as an abandoned building." Wait, if we are not humans what are we? "We are just souls, we cant feel pain from the outside world, but we can from this world." What happens when we die in this world? "Your soul turns to dust, and you can never come back, because you'll be a dust particle with no feelings or sense of pain." So does every soul come here? "Only the ones Edward wants here, otherwise the night creatures will kill you by the second day of being dead." So I can never escape this place? "Not unless you want to turn to dust." So I truly will be stuck with Edward for eternity. "Unfortunately." But I could try to kill him. "He is to powerful, you would end up getting killed." "I wouldn't be able to live with myself if you died." But what's the point of living like this, if we cant be together. "I'm not a good person anyways, you should just stay away." I don't want to. "I'm trying to save you, I don't want you to die." What are you even trying to save me from?! "Myself", he started to walk away but I grabbed him by the arm. You can't just leave me like this. "I'm sorry, I have to." I didn't want him to see me cry but I did, he was the only person I cared about here, now i'm alone. "Why are you crying", Anna said in a mean spiteful voice. "Toby obviously doesn't like you, he only likes me." Why are you being so mean? "What you think everyone here is nice." She shoved me into a puddle of mud. Don't touch me! "What are you gonna do about it cry", she laughed as she said this and pushed me back down to the floor. I got up and punched her across the face, I told you to leave me alone! "Stay away from Toby, or i'll tell the boss and you will both end up dead!" I ran, and I ran until I got back to my room, I can't deal with this, I just can't.
Toby's P.O.V
It had been days since I last talked to her, I was going insane without her. I didn't want to leave, but I had to i'm not a good person, and I don't want to drag her down with me. Also if Edward finds out about us, we will both be killed. Anna had been flirting with me every chance she got, I was getting annoyed. I only have eyes for one person, but of course she is the one I cant even have. The days here go slow, so slow I lost track of what day it is. I only remember the year it is, 2018. I feel like my hands are tied and I can't do nothing but watch my life fall apart. I LOVE Aly but I can't have her because of Edward that piece of shit, anyways I should probably go talk to Aly to see if she is okay. When I got to her room I heard Anna in there and Aly sobbing? WHAT! So I just walked in and they looked at me.
Anna's P.O.V(Bet You Didn't See That Coming)
That girl Aly is a annoying piece of shit, I wish she would just die so I could have Toby all to myself and she can have her perfect little down right evil Edward. After I get the syringe I go to Aly's room to inject it into her. This potion will make her only love Edward, then I get Toby all to myself. But I realized Toby had seen me stick the syringe in her neck. Don't worry, she will wake up in a few hours. "What was in the syringe?!" She was trying to hurt me, so I put her to sleep for a little bit. Sh-she attacked me, I said that I was your friend and she got all violent. She said that only she could have you, she tried to kill me. I fake cried in order to put my plan in place and he believed it, what an idiot. "Come on, let's go somewhere else, I can't believe she would do that."
