Ignoring the text, I opened the package and touched the money, is it all for me in my life now? Do I have to be suppressed all the time no matter how anybody treats me?
I let out a sigh of distress and looked outside the window to see a car ceased in the middle of the road. I have seen that car, as I began to examine it, the car left, must be Ryker, but what was he doing here.
I slid the package back to Cain, who was now not in a pleasant mood anymore and shook my head.
''Thanks but I can't take these. I have found a job and ---'' I wanted to say something, but he had come prepared to humiliate me for not accepting his help.
''And what is it this time? Are you going to sell yourself now?'' his words fell on my eardrums like hard solid rocks. The fact that they kept using such statements to bring me down was leaving me frozen. I raised my face in disbelief and my words remained in my mouth when I felt a tap on my shoulder.
''Kathle
“Where are we going?” I uttered very politely, trying not to trigger him over my tone.He ignored me for a minute and then stretched his neck. I knew something creepy was going on in his mind."I don't understand what has gotten into you girls," Ryker muttered in pure rage. He looked uncomfortable, must be something related to his Darling Scarlet."Yet you guys wanna sleep with us." I bitterly mumbled, looking away. If someone new sees us, they will probably think we were a couple arguing about who spends too much on groceries."I didn't want to sleep with you. I was just trying to scare you." He huffed, tightening his grip over the steering wheel. Yeah! Like I would believe him."Yeah, it's easy for you guys to change your mind." I was in intense pain inside. My eyes almost flooded with tears; memories have made me weak. It was hard to forget all the insults Cain made me go through by calling Meesha and acting like I
"Do you have any idea what you have done?" He growled, taking a step closer to my face. I had to take a step back to prevent our bodies from brushing together."I saved you," I uttered, definitely I didn't save him, but I saved myself though. Has Scarlet seen me here with her enraged boyfriend, she might have concluded that I somehow was the reason behind his finding out about her. We all know how the third party always gets blamed in a couple’s fight."How? Please Miss Kathleen will you elaborate?" He looked me in the eye aggressively and knitted his brows. His mood swings were getting worse. This whole situation with Scarlet has changed him a lot; he was never at peace."Last time when you tried to stop her, she threatened to leave you and if you had created a scene here, she wouldn't have to think twice before leaving you." I was quick enough to come up with an excuse that could satisfy him just enough to back down from glaring me in the eye. It was so
''What—how?'' I whispered under my breath in fear and took a step back.Were my eyes deceiving me? Maybe the shock of the nightmare made me hallucinate new devils in my room. His eyes hungrily scanned my body.As he moved a muscle, I knew this wasn't a dream. My instant reaction was to run back into the bathroom, but he read my body and quickly rushed over me.The way he jumped off the bed in his black unbuttoned shirt and bolted in my direction, I felt my heart sinking in my chest. Before I could slam the door shut and lock him out, he poked his shoe in and blocked the door from closing.''Get out!'' I yelled, but then subdued my voice. I would never want anyone to hear us and get myself in another trouble."Leave!" my voice was commanding yet fear was evident from my tone. I had to hold my towel with one hand and put my body pressure on the door to prevent him from opening it. Wh
I woke up a bit early that morning. It has to do with what happened last night, I thought. As I took a shower to get ready for the gym, I realized it was too early and the girls might not even be awake by now. Having spare time in my hand, I decided to go for a morning walk. It’s been ages since I have enjoyed a good morning jaunt.The chirping of sweet little birds, the fresh morning breeze, the fog of winter, and then here it was me, wrapped up in two sweaters and socks like a burrito. To put it simply, it was so damn cold outside. The cut-off gloves weren’t doing a great job for my naked fingers, I swear I almost felt they were frozen.Pulling up the muffler to cover my nose, I started my walk. Slowly the birds too went silent as the cold began to grow intense. I hugged myself even tighter and marched towards the tunnel.As I kept walking towards the tunnel, my ears picked out some noise from behind me. I could be wrong because m
I sat on the bed after taking a shower, mad at myself for acting so miserable. The worst part wasn’t even me being jealous of thinking he will be out with Willow, God knows doing what, but that I was well aware of why he was acting up. He just wanted to get back at Scarlet, I was only a tool being used in his game of vengeance, and yet I was falling.I recalled how cute his smirk was when he was listening to the girls today and pretended to be unaware of the surrounding, but now Willow will get to see his smile and even trap him. Wait! Why am I being jealous? Shouldn't Scarlet be fueling up, he belongs to her and not to me.I was over here burning my own self and Willow over there was getting ready like it was her date. She must be planning something. As for Ryker, always feeling horny, will definitely hit on her.
We stood there watching them getting intimate.''Look who's back, why did she come back?'' Willow whispered, looking at them as they romantically made out in front of us. I could hear the hidden anger and frustration in her voice. What she didn’t know was that Scarlet wouldn’t even care who her boyfriend sleeps with.''She is his girlfriend and our boss too,'' I replied, not wanting to look at them. They pulled back and started uttering something. I would be lying if I say I wasn’t feeling a bit of jealousy.''I don't like her; she is faking her love for him,'' Willow muttered in her mouth and pulled her nose. It was weird how Willow’s observation made me agree with her inside my head. We both adjusted our posture when finally, Scarlet turned her attention to us.''Hey girls, where are you coming from?'' She approached us while Ryker stayed behind and had his head in his phone's screen like he didn't care. Does he not r
''AAAAAHHHHH!'' I let out a not very loud gasp and sat straight in my bed. It felt so real, I bet if I see myself in the mirror, I will see signs of fingers around my neck. I held my hands on my chest to calm myself down, but then something happened.''It was just a nightmare, you are fine!'' I heard someone talking from beside me in bed. I swirled my head to stare at the person, I bet I had slept alone, then where did this guy come from, and who was he?''Ryker?'' I rubbed my eyes and slapped my forehead. ''Why are you in my room?'' so he was the shadow in my nightmare and that strangulation thing was just the impact he left on my brain in my sleep.I was watching his face in shock and disbelief, why does he feel like he is invited in my room every night?''A simple thanks would suffice.'' he rolled his eyes, mending the sleeves of his coat which seemed like he was about to take off.''Thank you for breaking into my room,'' I muttered, gritting my
''What are you doing?'' I growled, making a tights balls of my hands. He dropped his shirt down from the bed with his coat and slipped under the blanket once again.“What! You reminded me I can’t sleep like that,” he mumbled from under the blanket, ''you are lucky I'm not taking off my pant tonight, otherwise, remember I sleep naked.'' Popping only his face out of the blanket, he yawned and said the whole sentence quickly. He closed his eyes shut and rubbed his face on the pillow, my pillow.
