CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR
- LORELEI -
I had fun today. My body dropped on my bed with my arms spread to both sides as I faced the ceiling with a smile. I'm in my room.My phone has every single thing my old one has, my details included so there wasn't anything to restore. The bank was well compliant with my withdrawal.I want to deny it... but it felt nice not to be Lorelei Stanley for a day. It felt really good to be Lorelei Salvatore. As much as I hate to be, the name carries a lot of power and fear. Not to talk of the twenty four hour service of protection I have. Ability to buy new expensive clothes and ride in comfortable cars instead of my bicycle or strolling.To get perfumes and have a good massage. Of course I am careful enough not to spend so much on luxurious things because I always remember where I'm from but it felt nice to be free. To be noticed and treated right.What didn't feel nice is the fact that I couldn't meet my friends because apparentlRelated chapters

- LORELEI - It's a masked ball. In the back seat of the car with Ace by my side, my head is directed straight. I'm wearing his stupid gown and painfully pretty shoes. I'll be sure to shove them up his ass once we return back to his home. Ace hasn't said a word to me since then and trust me when I say that it has been the most enjoyable few minutes of my life since he waltzed into his door and acted like he owns the place. Technically, he does. He owns everything I'm wearing. Even the place I live. My heartbeat quickened. I really hope he wasn't alerted by his agents about my purchase of the house. It'll mean trouble. If he hasn't already caused trouble. The car came to a halt. "We're here." The driver said before getting out of the car. The door where Ace is sat opens and Ace gets out. I sat still in the car, waiting for no actual reason. After today, I realised I'm not allowed to even touch the door handle of the cars I st

- ACE - "Keep an eye on Lorelei." I said to Marco an hour ago. I don't know how that's going because as far as I can see from the VIP table amidst my discussion with my investors, Lorelei has been acting out. She's drinking so much and flirting with every single man in sight. That has me on a choke hold because I'm torn between dishing this event and taking her with me or just bearing her attitude. Is this her way of protesting? What the fuck is this? My palm rummaged over my face and pinched my temples. The fact that I have to put on a smile in front of my investors makes this unsettling. Right now, because of her, I can't even concentrate. Hell, I don't even know what they're saying. I groaned, tapping my foot impatiently on the ground, underneath the table. The round table is covered with a thick red table sheet and my feet is hidden underneath. "Well, if the stakes are this high, I don't see a reason why I should invest. At this rate, we'll have more losses than profit. It's

- LORELEI -One may think drugging him there was the worst move and I just unleashed a beast but I don't care. No one treats me that way and gets away with it, no matter who the person is, I won't accept it. Even if it means more verbal abuse to ruin my mental state? My throat creased as that thought played in my mind. Even if that's what it takes. I answered myself. It's not something I'm not used to anyway. Even if it means something bad happening to your mother? I stepped harder on the pedal and watched the numbers on the speedometer rise. I barely know how to drive but giving this car a few crashes is me being nice after what he has done to me. And about mom, it's something I'm taking care of. Nothing bad will happen to her. At least not because of me. But first, I need to pay that asshole of a father and his gold digging wife a visit. I need them to know I'm not the woman I used to be and I can ruin him. Well, I can't but Ace can. I've seen it with my own eyes how much power h

- LORELEI - A groan slid out of my mouth as I try to move. My body is upside down and my head feels heavy yet light due to the pain I feel all around my body and the blood rushing to my head. A croak escape my lips. I can barely see anything but something is squashing me from the front and back making it hard for me to breathe. Rough short breaths force its way out of my lips accompanied with a sharp pain in my chest with every breath. Am I alive or is this death? I ask myself, wishing my body is more numb than going through this agony. This is torture. How compressed I am in the car is more excruciating than uncomfortable. I can feel every sting from every inch of my body like a million broken glass pieces are plunged into my skin all at once and my body is on fire, burning from within. My vision is blurred so I closed my eyes gently and slowly flicked my eyelids up, because even that movement is painful, trying to see again. I think my blood is rolling down my face to my eyes be

- ACE - The effects have died down. I can function properly without dizziness and my mind is stable. It's day break and I've been up for hours but there has been no sign of Lorelei. It's Saturday and it is difficult to do anything knowing she's out there somewhere with someone I may or may not know. My fingers massage my temples as I stare at my phone which is laying on my bed by my side. I have dialed and dialed so many times but I've gotten no response. At this point, I can't tell if she's avoiding me and declining my calls on purpose or not. I can't tell if she tried another run away. I exhaled, trying to think. She can't get away from me. Not yet. Maybe she's partying somewhere else. Today is Saturday after all and it's not like she has a lot to do. Her pharmacy has been destroyed and she's not working at the moment. That must kill her. She probably just used the ball as an excuse to clear her head and be as far away from me as possible. A grin formed on my face. I love diffi

- ACE - My heart rate is rising. I can feel my blood pumping through my veins as I ran to the scene. Isabel is with me. I left her in the car once we arrived. All this time I thought Lorelei ran away or went to have fun but she was involved in an accident nearly costing her life. I still remember how awful I felt when I watched the news. How confused I was at first. How I never guessed the accident was linked to me nor Lorelei till my insurance company contacted me about replacing my car. That's when it hit me. That's when I knew something was wrong....So far, the police haven't been able to identify the body in the scene but I sure as hell hope it's not her. Not because I care.... but because I would hate to lose someone under my care.... again. "Where is she?!" I breath, asking the first police officer I met. "I'm sorry sir, but no unauthorized entry past this point." Hearing the woman say that while pushing me back with her hand vexed me more than I already am. Unauthorised

- LORELEI -A deep breath barely escaped my lungs with a sharp pain in my chest. I groaned softly. After struggling to breathe for so long in this position, the pain has become something I got used to. The wind is cold and ticklish on my skin yet harsh on my sores. My vision is too blurry to see the change of the day but I can tell that the night is getting darker. Time is whiling away and I have lost the will to stay alive. Help is not coming. No one would want to help a stranger deserted in the middle of nowhere. I am not loved. Not by my contracted husband, not by my birth father, not by my step mother. The people who do care about me.... I haven't been in contact with them since my wedding... since I heard I was getting sold off... they don't even know anything about me now. My head feels light but my body feels heavy. I can hear a faint sound leave my nose with every breath. No one cares... no one will come even if they're notified that I'm in danger... My fate was sealed

- ACE -I am sitting on the sofa in the living room, scrolling through channels on the TV uninterestedly. My house has always been quiet but all of a sudden it seems too quiet. Way too quiet and I don't need to wonder why that is. My throat creased. I miss her. I never thought I would but I do. Heck, I miss annoying her. I miss her reactions to my shitty behaviour towards her. I always thought that if something bad happened to her I wouldn't care but I was wrong. So damn wrong. Someone walks to my side but I didn't turn to look at who. I already know who it is. It's Rebecca. Ever since that night I arrived home drunken, I've left her in charge of my meals. "Young master, your meal is ready." She said. "I'm not hungry." I responded without sparing her a gaze, still flipping through channels with a bored look on my face. I lost appetite two weeks ago. The only reason why I even eat these days is because of Isabel. That woman has done more than she is paid to do. I appreciate that. "
