Chapter Six - Lucas's Absurd Demand

It was morning and a stressed Sienna drove to the hospital to face Lucas again. The whole night she tossed and turned unable to sleep. Thoughts of Roman and his threats kept her awake. It was easier said than done. She knew that if she declined him, he would get them evicted without another warning. They would be stranded and the only place left would be to go back to Sienna’s parents' house. Roman knew how lonely she felt there. This was a ploy to get her to bow down to his wishes. He knew how the walls caved in on her there, the memories haunted her, made her feel claustrophobic. Added to that was the fact that Roman's house next door would literally have him staying over with them! And he would brainwash her day and night to move in with him and marry him as soon as possible. No, it would be the worst punishment possible! Was there any way out of this mess? If only her dad had consulted her before committing her life and future to Roman!
