Have to leave

Victoria's POV

I stood up from the bed and leaned on the door with folded arms. 

I took in a deep breath and thought this was the appropriate time to tell Elliot of my plan of leaving the house. 

''Are you ready to face him now.'' He asked 

I stood there and did not know what to say to him, the truth was that I don't really know, but I don't care anymore. 

''I can't keep running away from him, I have to face him one day.'' I murmured and moved away from the door, 

''I have something to say to you.'' I murmured almost to myself. 

Elliot raised his eyebrows confused as he stared at me. 

''What is it?''he asked with his curious be eyes. 

I swallowed nervously as I sat beside him, Elliot has been a great help to me, but I can't keep staying in this house while putting him in so much pressure. 

''I'm leaving.'' I murmured almost to myself while I looked away, not able to look at his face. 

''I have already gotten a room, I just need to buy my furniture and move in. 

''No.'' Elliot cut me off 

''I won't allow it, there is no need for that.'' he shouted 

I released an heavy sigh before speaking up 

''I can't continue staying here Elliot, I just can't, please let me go.'' I pleaded 

''No.'' he slightly shook his head 

I sighed frustrated and stood up from the bed while I stood before him. 

''I have to leave Elliot, sorry, but I can't stay here, Eric is looking for now, and I can't let him know that you have any hand in my disappearance.'' I said those words, hoping he would understand things with me, but he didn't. 

''Leave Eric to me, I will handle him my own way, you don't need to let yourself get worked up with that.'' he stood up from the bed and placed by his two hands on my shoulders 

''Relax and let me handle it okay ?'' I did not let those words finish from his mouth before I cut him off 

''No Elliot I just have to go please, I think I have overstayed my welcome here.'' I murmured those words almost to myself and tried moving away from him, but he took hold of my hand and pulled me to himself. 

''Did anyone say anything to you?'' he asked while staring at me with his two set of sea blue eyes that always brings shivers to my body whenever he stares me. 

I gulped but did not say a word 

''I know Catherine will never want you to leave this house, so it's definitely Jennifer right ?'' he asked like he was so sure of it.

''No one said anything to me.'' I tried convincing him, but I knew Elliot, he will never believe it. 

He let go of my hand and aimlessly walked around my room before speaking up 

''You can leave if you wish to leave.''he murmured those words in a hurt tune before leaving my room. 

I grumbled and collapsed on the bed in frustration, Elliot was mad at me for thinking of leaving the house, but that was the best option left for me. 

Jennifer, his mate doesn't want me here, and it was obvious she hates me, so there was no need of me staying here.

I need to leave this house before Eric find out I stay here, him finding out I stay here will bring a big fight between him and Elliot, and I can't let that happen. 

I lay on the bed and was and was about drifting to sleep when I noticed my room door slightly opened. I opened my eyes to see who was coming and noticed it was Jennifer coming in with a tray of food in her hand. 

She kept the food on the bed and stared at me with a furious look. 

''Elliot was here for a long time, heaven knows what you guys were doing in here.'' hearing this words from her, I couldn't hold it anymore. 

I stood up from the bed and stood before her with so much anger in me. 

''And what is the meaning of what you just said?'' I asked in anger 

''You heard me right, what were you two doing here.''she muttered out angrily 

I chuckled angrily at her words and shook my head in disbelief before speaking up 

''If you really wanted to know what we were doing in my room, then you should have rushed into my room and caught us in the act.'' I spoke angrily. 

This lady was too blind to see that I can't have anything to do with Elliot not when I knew he has a mate and loves her so much. 

''You think I'm joking with you right?'' she asked in anger, as she taps her feet on the floor while she stared at me with so much anger and hatred 

''I know your type and I know how to deal with people like you.'' she declared those words as a treat and angrily left my room.

I shook my head in anger as I walked towards my closet, If not for Eric, I wouldn't be in such situation when someone will say all these words to me.

I brought out a jacket, put it on and left my room. I got downstairs and noticed Jennifer downstairs watching a TV show, we lock eyes with each other for a while before I looked away and left the house.

The security guard opened the gate for me while staring at me with curiosity, it was really late, and he knew I wasn't going to work.

I took in a deep breath to inhale the fresh breeze coming from the atmosphere before I started walking away with no direction in my head.

I walked for a while before I decided I should go to the bar where I work and have a few bottles of drink, since today was my off day.

I walked towards the direction of the drinking bar and in few minutes I was already in the bar.

I got in, said Hi to my colleagues and took a free seat at the center of the hall while I place a bottle of beer in front of me.
