Ruined

Daphne’s vision was blurry at first to picture the shape of the weapon stretched to her face until she hears a dangerous not good to say— familiar sound of a gun. She scrambles out of bed to a corner with the bedspread covering her nakedness. 

She cried in pain when her soreness kicks in.

“Who are you? What have you done to me? What are you doing in my boyfriend’s room?!” She rushed the questions in pain, searching the room for anything to defend herself.

The man in the mask let out a throaty laugh and then placed his hand on the trigger “Do I look like a joke?! Who do you work for?!” He asked in a threatening but calm voice which makes this man even more dangerous. He sounds to be experienced in everything bad he does.

He retained thick golden hair and an elegant face. Through his loose bathrobe, one could vaguely see his sexy and strong chest muscles that hold his tattoos.

The mask covers half of his face leaving only his fine thin lips which are pressed in a straight line. He used the mask before Daphne woke up, he must be an important person.

His eyes sparked with anger when he saw the blood-stained sheet on the bed. He drew his lower lips between his teeth— “You were so desperate to fake this as well?” He said.

That was when Daphne realized where the pain was coming from, she has lost her virginity to a stranger last night. All she remembered was her pressed under him and his violent thrust last night.

She stood transfixed with eyes brimming with tears.

She clutch her head with both of her hands “Why was I drunk? I didn’t drink much “ she thought.

Then her phone chimed with a notification. She hurriedly grabbed it with shaky hands as the man was still in front of her.

“How was your night with the pimp Daphne? He he” she read the text that Jessica sent followed by another one from Daniel’s phone.

“Thats the big surprise Miss Virgin” she read.

Her heart sank to the far bottom when she realized what just happened. She was set up with this hot-looking pimp and now they asked him to kill her?!

The man in the mask seems to be in his own dilemma as he clutches his head tight and groaned in pain. A headache hit him out of nowhere. The drug effect was still there.

“You must be receiving huge pay for ruining my life! Can’t you let me live? It's unfair to die like this. I promise never to show my face in front of you again” Daphne pleaded.

She starts to pack her things when the man was distracted.

“My boyfriend’s name is Daniel William, kill him for me I will pay you” she cried as she went through her purse hurriedly. She brings out a $100 note then toss it to the man.

“What do you think you're doing?” He asked with a groan.

Daphne slipped her dress on and picked up her heels “You were not even that good, you went all hard on me last night! You're the worst pimp ever!” she cried.

The man in mask takes more steps forward and her small frame appears so tiny to his huge ones almost swallowing her up.

She threw her pearl necklace in fear “You can take this too please” she cried shutting her eyes tight.

She was about to make a run for it when the man grabbed her.

She screamed and hit him with the pointed sole of her heels.

“Fuck!” he groaned and released his grip on her.

Daphne ran away from the hotel room.

~~~~~~

Daphne cried all the way home, she checked her purse and saw that she didn't have much to take her to Daniel’s place and her home.

She sniffs in her tears and snorts “I will destroy you Daniel!” she said then flag down a taxi to take her home.

On getting to the apartment she shares with Jessica, she was too tired to mind the door that was left open.

She crawled her way into her room and then to the bathroom.

She let the hot water scald her tender skin as she scrubs her body harshly. She feels disgusted to have slept with a pimp! She feels stupid not to see Jessica’s betrayal coming. She didn't know who to blame and why, she chose to cry it out.

A few minutes later, she put on a short and oversized shirt looking so sick and raucous.

She picked up her phone to try Daniel’s number to curse at him but she could hear it ringing so close.

She traced the sound to Jessica’s room.

She took tentative steps towards the room and her palms sweaty and trembling.

“That was smart of you Jessica, now she won't be an obstacle to us anymore!” a man’s voice speaks from inside.

“I love you so much Daniel, much more than that proud princess! Once the pimp sends me her pictures, I will spread it all over the internet” she said with a laugh.

“Poor girl, we used her for four years and now I've gotten the shares from the family thanks to her funds throughout the years,” Daniel said.

“Are you feeling bad for her? Serves her right for not knowing how to keep a man. She's a low-key prostitute trust me” Jessica said whining.

Hearing this from them, Daphne’s phone dropped from her hand and when they heard the sound, they stopped talking.

Daphne trembles with great fear. She picked up her phone and turned around to run as far away as possible from them!

Without taking anything, she ran out of the house barefooted.

—At the Hotel—

An average-looking man is seen standing in front of the masked man with honey tea and a slice of lemon dipped into the cup.

The man is Black William, the 3rd richest billionaire in the top 10 in the entire states.

He is powerful, divine, and reserved. But under the reserved gentleman lies another side of him that he indicated with his mask on.

He is the rawest of the term cold-hearted, and merciless. He takes his business seriously but no one has ever seen his face.

He walks around in his black mask and rumor has it that he must be an ugly-looking man.

As it is, it's mostly impossible to have it all. He was involved in a fire accident years back in which he lost his wife and newborn baby. Since then, he started using the mask.

“Here is the antidote Mr.Black,” he said stretching it forward to him.

He took a sip from the cup but he smashed the rest on the wall.

It jerked the man to his alarmed state as he went on his knees pleading greatly “Forgive me for being careless Mr.Black. I didn't know the Vadoo gang came to the hotel last night” he pleaded.

“You think that can solve for whatever humiliation I went through today?! Here!” he said showing him his bruised arm that Daphne attacked with her heels. 

“No! Not Vadoo gang. They sent a chick yesterday but I killed her immediately and sent her body back wrapped in a gift box. They wouldn't risk another life” He said playing with the ring on his finger like a scheming predator.

“Search for any Daniel William that lodged in my hotel last night “ He ordered.

The man named Kai froze in place and could not say a word further.

“What are you still doing here?” he asked in rage.

“The only Daniel William that booked room 306 last night was your stepbrother sir but he didn't stay the night” He explained.

“He is back?” he asked.
