The bright sunlight flooded inside the room and it hit directly at Leila's face— making her wake up from her sleep. She stared directly at the plain white ceiling. Feeling exhausted, Leila could barely get up and she felt a throbbing headache so she placed her hand on her forehead for a bit. Before she could move further, Leila extended her touch to the other side of the bed, searching for Dominick who was nowhere to be found. Upon realizing that his side of the bed was empty, Leila jerked up and sat upright. She picked up her phone and checked what time it was because she noticed how bright the day had become. 10 a.m!. Leila panicked and she stood up immediately. She shoved her legs into the furry slippers on the floor and she rushed outside the room. Leila didn't bother to wash her face, all she wanted was to see Dominick that morning before he left. By the time she reached the living room, Liam informed her that Dominick had already left and Shantelle went out with him. Leila frown

Leila just finished eating the last piece of meal on her plate. It was her second meal for that day and it was almost evening time. She slowly stared at her mobile phone which continued to beep as a result of the phone calls and text messages she was receiving from her aunt. She finally picked it up on its last ring. Thankfully, Dominick wasn't anywhere in the mansion so she could pick up the call."What do you want?" Leila asked her aunt— knowing fully well what she wanted. "Don't tell me, you slut." Grace cursed out loud. Leila was frustrated, she tried to remain calm and speak with her. She knew how cunning Grace could be and she didn't want to implicate herself. "Like I already told you, I don't have much money on me" Leila stated. She breathed heavily on the phone, her anger got the better of her. "Let's meet at 6 p.m. give me any amount you have" Grace declared and ended the phone call hurriedly. Leila looked at the time on the phone. It was past 5pm Leila left the dining ro

DOMINICKI forced my eyes open and I realized that it was morning. I was still in bed, battling with this throbbing headache that didn't allow me to Concentrate on what was going on within me. Soon, I tried to stand up and I noticed a pair of hands wrapped around my waist, gripping me tightly like a kid clutching onto his mother. Seeing the artificial purple fingernails, I could tell that it was Shantelle. A few strands of her platinum blonde hair were on my chest, while her head was inside the duvet. We were both naked in bed so I could depict what happened, but I still didn't want to believe it. How could I let myself down so easily and sleep with Shantelle? Fuck! I exclaimed angrily. I pulled myself from her and I stood up. I walked barefooted towards the window and I stared outside. It was still the early hours of the morning and the sun was barely out. The surroundings were still very dark. I turned towards my right and I noticed an empty bottle of whiskey and a glass near it. F

DOMINICK "I do not love you!" Her words rang a bell in my head, echoing continuously in the silent room. I glared at her, trying so hard to contain my anger and not to unleash on her. Not only did her words hurt one, they shattered me. I didn't say anything, I assumed that she just said that out of anger or she wanted me to stay away from her for a while. She could be angry at me. Who knows? I know I overreacted earlier and she is trying to pay me back but her words hurt me. I slowly let go of her arm and moved backwards. I didn't want to hurt her, anger was slowly consuming me."I thought we had something" I managed to speak breathlessly "This is all a mistake. From the very beginning, we never should've gotten together in the first place.." She stated. Her eyes were stern, she really meant her words. Leila had no feelings for me."I already…" "Enough!" I exclaimed. Cutting her off her words. "How dare you, Leila? How dare you think that you can use and dump me? After everythin

Leila woke up to the sound of noises and indistinct chatters. Music, smoke and the stench of alcohol lingering in the air. She tried to open her eyes, meeting a blurry vision. The atmosphere around her forced her to wake up and she realized that she was hanging up in the air of a stage, inside a golden cage. She was barely wearing any clothes, just a to-match lace panties and bra that barely covered her boobs. Uncomfortable, she didn't understand what was going on around her. How did she get there?The last thing she remembers was that she was arguing with Dominick Castillo and he hit behind her neck which made her pass out. As she tries to stand up, the cage lowers slowly. She heard the people cheering and laughing pleasurably to her current situation. Suddenly, she hears a loud roar and she looks below. "Why is there a fucking lion underneath the cage? Do they want to get her killed?" She asked rhetorically, shocked by it. Leila was furious, what was dominick planning, why did he d
