When she was done dressing up, she returned to the bedroom and David took her to the Boss' room. Jericho's room.
On their way, Nina kept looking around, wondering where she could possibly be.
Could it be far from her basement? Or somewhere cldle? And where was her father, anyway? Was he looking for her?
Of course. He should've been informed of the scandal at the place already and was probably looking for her already. Oh! She really needed to get out of here. She had to.
She came across some boys and the thoughts started dawning on her bit by bit. Jericho was definitely a gangster, but her greatest fear was him belonging to the fire squad. Oh! She'd never be able to bear it. Never!
She was almost panicking. How on earth would she be able to survive it?
Finally, they got to the "King's" room and David - after knocking on it - opened the door and led her in.
The room was a little dark at first, but with the passing seconds, her eyes adjusted to the dimness and she could see him facing the window, seemingly smoking.
"She's here, boss" David said gruffly and Jericho turned to look at at them
He took a drag from his cigarette and puffed smoke into the air.
"You can leave" he answered to David and he bowed and left.
Nina lowered her gaze to the floor, unable to stare at him. And Jericho left the window, walking towards the bed to sit.
"Go on your knees, Nina" he said and Nina's eyes dimmed.
Wait ... whaaaat??
Oh her knees?? Why?
Jericho looked at her and scoffed.
"Do I need to repeat myself?" He asked
"I...think so. Because I don't understand why you'd want me to kneel for no reason" she answered sharply and Jericho shook his head and stared at the small table in front of him where he mixed some white substance.
"You shouldn't be questioning me, Nina" he mumbled. "I thought I made it clear you're meant to obey me?"
Nina gave no reply but just continued looking around.
"When I ask you to do a thing, you're not expected to complain because like I earlier said, you've become my slave".
Nina almost snorted but forced herself not to as she just looked away.
Jericho took what he wanted from the table and stood up.
"For the last time, Nina" he said. "Go on your knees".
This time around, Nina could see the dreadful look in his eyes but still tried not to falter.
"I didn't do anything wrong. So, I have no reason to kneel" she answered with a hard gulp and immediately, he hit her hard across the face
"Ah!" She winced as her knees hit the floor in pain
Holy Christ! It hurt..!
Her palm was over her face when he yanked her hair and made her look him in the face.
"You really don't value your life, do you?" He asked angrily.
"Too bad, I can't kill you now because I still need to use you to lure your evil father. But in the meantime, Nina, you're to worship me. Do you understand?"
She looked at him painfully and let out a perfunctory nod.
But why was he trying to lure her father? For what reason?
What could be going on between them? And why does it have to involve her?
"Argh!" She shrieked as he pulled her up with the hair and took her to the bed.
"Take off your clothes or I'll do it for you" his voice was rough and Nina panted heavily.
What?
No; no way.
"Over my dead body" she answered stubbornly, her heart beating faster than a party drum.
Hell no. There was no way she was letting him use her. Never.
"Really? Over your dead body?" He snorted as he walked towards her. He grabbed her chin hard and made her face him. "Don't make me angry, you slave!" His eyes were burning red.Nina could see the darkness in his eyes. He was going to use her. Use her to lure her father.Nina eyes watered as Jericho pushed her to the bed.Oh! He was going to use her. Going to sleep with her. Going to be his slave. Rather, sex slave. Isn't it?Why was she involved in this?Nina sniffed as she saw Jericho come towards her with ropes which he took from a drawer.What's he going to do? Nina creased in thought. He was going to tie her while he have his way.Finally, a tear came out from her eyes as she struggled to get down from the bed but she was caught by Jericho."Don't try to escape." He snarled and pushed her hard to the bed before climbing on it and stayed on top of her.
Nina walked downstairs with the maids. When she got to the sitting room, she saw Jericho with some boys. He was smoking too.He turned when he noticed her presence and summoned her to come closer.Nina limped forward to him while the maids went back to their duties. The boys with Jericho laughed, seeing her the way she walked to them.She rolled her eyes at them and said, "Bastards" with so much hatred in her voice.She just hate this place. She hates Jericho. Everything that has to do with him.Jericho heard the word and arched his brows at her. "You don't insult my people." He snapped."Like I care." Nina retorted as she got to him.Jericho pushed her down to her knees and played with her hair."Guys, she's my sex slave from this moment. Tell others about it. I don't want anyone to touch her without my permission. Is that clear?" He introduc
Nina was taken to the torture room and was left there alone.She panicked. What has she done? Why did she disobey him? She shouldn't have done that mistake.Minutes later, Jericho came in with David. What's really his relationship with David? Perhaps, he might be his assistant or something.Nina's heart skipped a beat as she saw Jericho go to the other side of the room and brought out a long whip.Oh! He's going to beat her to death?"Please, I was just feeling weak and hungry. I couldn't find the maids around. So, I had to come downstairs myself." She tried to explain but it seems Jericho isn't buying that.He got to her and bent down to her size. He stared at the fearful and tearful ocean blue eyes of hers.He smiled evilly and said,
Her body trembled as she saw Jericho staring coldly at her. He wore a hoodie.How did he know she was here? Why would he come here? So many questions ran through her mind. She gulped and looked away."Alicia, i think I'm in trouble. Jericho is here. He's going to kill me when we get home." Nina panicked.What if he knows what she told Alicia?"The leader is here? Where?" She tried to look back but Nina stopped her."Don't look back. See, just go. I don't want to put you into trouble. Just go back to class carefully." She told Alicia."Seriously, I can't believe you're so afraid of him.""I should be. Don't you know who he is?" Nina's eyes never left Jericho.Alicia was so eager to turn back and see who the guy Jericho is. She gently stood up from her seat and traced Nina's gaze.He saw h
Chapter 9Nina got into the second car with Jericho while the boys took the first car. Her heart skipped so many times.What's waiting for her at home? She heaved a sigh which made Jericho stared at her.He watched her for some seconds. His eyes roamed slowly on her body. Her brown hair was long, brown eyes and perfect lips.Her lips were plump and kissable. He shook her head slowly and looked away. He shouldn't be imagining what it feels to kiss her.No, he shouldn't.They got home and came down from the car. He walked inside and hastened his steps to his room.Nina on the other hand, walked slowly, dragging her feet on the tiles. She got to Jericho's door and glanced.Should she go in or not? No. He didn't ask her to come in now. Nina gulped and sat on her bed just as she got to her room."What's my fate right now?" She asked herself.
Oh! She shouldn't have been Jericho's slave. She'd make her life miserable. She doesn't want to see any other girl apart from her alone.She belongs to Jericho. No one else. She owns him. She only can tame him, take care of him and love him. Not Nina.Wait! How did she become Jericho's slave? Huh?She got to the bed and grabbed Nina by hair, waking her up with her horrible voice."Bitch!" She yelled."Hey! Will you stop that and stop grabbing my hair." Nina snapped and yanked her hand off her hair.What the hell? Why will she grab her hair like that? Just like that? No, she doesn't take nonsense from people."You're Jericho's slave? Since when did he start having slave? And how that f*ck did you get into his life?"Stacey fired, glaring hard at Nina who care less."You should ask him that question amd not me. He has the reason for making his slav
"Had an accident?" Nina asked shocked. "How come?""I don't know. All I heard was that, he was coming over to your place and there he had an accident. That's all. His injury isn't that serious.""Thank goodness. At least he didn't die." Nina said, so relieved."Yeah."The teacher walked in and began teaching them. It took hours cause it was double period and the class was getting bored.The teacher decided to make an announcement. "There will be a fashion show coming up next week. So, Nina, Alicia, Salome and Tabitha will be going for the show. More details when next i come to class." The teacher said and packed up her things before leaving the class.It was time for break and everyone ran out if the lecture room. Salome walked gingerly to where Nina and Alicia was."I'm sure you're gonna fail like the last time."
"Find him!" He fired immediately.Jericho got up from the swivel chair he stood on and ordered the guards to quickly get the car ready.He really needed to take that guy.Nina gasped, her mouth hung opened as she stared at him."My father?" She repeated.Without hesitating, she took the phone from him and quickly placed it on her ear. "Father?" She spoke softly."Nina!" The voice rang out. It was trembling."Dad," Nina said as she fight back the tears that was trying to come out."Why did you leave me? Where are you? Why did you do this to me?" She blurted out different questions.If only she could see him face to face. She really wanna speak so many words to his face. He really hurt her so much. Her father had made her suffer for what she didn't do.What the hell?"Nina, I'm sorry but i want you to believe that I will
