CHAPTER 2 | Second Encounter

"What the fuck are you doing, Emmanuel?!"

The guy at the door shouted, I was sure. He was the same guy I saw on the counter of the club earlier. He walked towards the man I'm sharing the bed with, that goes by the name Emmanuel.

He pulled him by the collar before punching him in the jaw resulting in Emmanuel losing his balance and falling to the floor.

I sat up, witnessing how the guy pulled Emmanuel up again. His trembling fist was in the air and he was about to hit the other one again when I shouted. "Stop!"

The guy in the hoodie glanced at me and when he did, his stiff and anger-filled face turned soft for a few seconds.

"Oh, Enric. My dear brother, good thing you're here," Even with bleeding lips, Emmanuel was still able to form a playful smirk. "We're just about to get to the best part."

"Why the fùck are you here?!"

Emmanuel snickered. "I was about to ask the same thing too. Why are you here?"

"This war is between us," Enric said with gritted teeth. You can fucking do your vengeance on me. Do not drag the innocent lady in this." Enric says with gritted teeth.

I was unable to understand the situation and so I remained silent.

"Innocent?" Emmanuel asks before glancing at me. "You saw how she danced back in the club and seduced me. I don't think she's that pure."

Enric flew his fist against the air, about to punch Emmanuel again but the latter was able to stop it using his hand.

"Don't be so mad, brother." Enric's fist was in the air and Emmanuel's hand stopping it was trembling. "I mean, I don't mind sharing her with you.." he added with a smirk.

I gulped as both of them turned their eyes to me. I couldn't help but get nervous.

My eyes went blurry, my head was aching and I began to sweat so much. Maybe it was because of fatigue and the effects of the aphrodisiac combined.

Unable to fight the effects anymore, my eyes surrendered and went closed.

That was the last time I remembered anything that night. The next thing I knew it was already morning.

The rays coming from the newly-risen sun had struck directly to my face causing me to be awakened from my deep slumber.

"Ugh, who the hell left the window open." I tried to sit down from lying but she failed to do so when I felt an unbearable coming from my private part down there.

I disregarded it 'cause maybe I was just having a period but then I remembered... "I just had my period last week!"

"Arghh! My head hurts!" I winced in pain when my head spun from the sudden sitting up.

Still, with her eyes closed, she leaned against the headboard of the bed. Amora tried to massage her hurting head but it didn't help.

"Mmm.."

My eyes spring open when I heard a groan coming from the left side of the bed. I turned my head and my eyes immediately went large in shock upon seeing someone sleeping beneath the gray comforter. His whole body was covered with cloth so I was able to identify who he was.

I checked myself under the covers and I almost passed out seeing that I was wearing nothing underneath!

I immediately stood up from the bed with the comforter around my naked body. Upon pulling it, I was already expecting to see a man underneath but I almost collapsed to the ground seeing there was not just a single man on the bed. There were two...

And the worst thing that could happen is...

"...they're t-twins.."

My palm moved up against my mouth in shock. I don't want to comprehend it but the blood stain on the white sheet was proof that something really did happen last night!

With the fear of the two men waking up and further making everything worse, I immediately picked up my clothes from the floor and wore them. While I was on my way out, my eyes caught a shining gold necklace on the side table. I hesitated for a minute but I eventually put it in my bag before leaving the hotel room without a trace.

Upon arriving at my apartment I threw herself on the bed and tried to process what just happened.

"Why can't I remember anything from last night!" I exclaimed with both hands on my head. "You bitch what does it have to be two?! Is One dìck not enough for you?!" I scolded myself and had a two-minute tantrum on the bed. "What am I gonna do now? I'm not a virgin anymore!"

I cried but immediately stopped when the face of the man suddenly popped into his head.

"But if you think about it, they're very handsome and probably rich too so.. maybe it's not that bad?" I slammed my head against her pillow. "But no! What if they search for me and continue to screw me up?! I can't fùcking take two dic―"

My phone suddenly vibrated and it stopped me from my mini tantrum. It was the alarm.

"Oh shit, I have classes in fifteen minutes and I still smell like freaking cùm!"

I flew to the bathroom and after less than ten minutes I was now riding in a bus on the way to my university.

I arrive at school with only two minutes remaining before the first class starts. I ran to the elevator of the school building and I went directly to the elevator. I sped up upon seeing the doors slowly closing. "Hey Wait! Wait for me―Geez!"

But I was too late. "The stairs it is."

I tied my hair before dashing up the stairs. My room was on the fifth floor so upon arriving there, I almost bathed in my own sweat. The very second I opened the door of my room, the bell rang, indicating that she made it in time.

"Goodmorning, Mrs. Jones." I greeted the teacher sitting at the desk and smiled, still panting.

"Take a seat."

"Thank you, Ma'am."

The qualification exam started and even though I didn't review, I passed.

It was lunchtime. I ordered a chicken sandwich, the cheapest food on the menu, then found a table on the corner.

While I was munching my food, a group of three girls, the stereotypical insecure spoiled ladies who bully the outcast, have come to make my day way worse than it already is.

"Here goes the stripper." the girl named Monique, who is Amora's cousin, said with a mocking smile.

Even if we are blood-related, I hate her to the bone. After both of my parents died in a car accident when I was ten, they deceived me and stole our family's wealth. Her parents, my Aunt, and Uncle then dumped me in an orphanage. Upon reaching legality, I'm already on my own.

What makes me more mad is after robbing off my wealth and Agnes living the life that was supposed to be mine, this girl really had the nerve to act like this in front of me.

Ungrateful bìtch.

But I decided to just ignore her but she didn't stop and even sat at the table in front of me.

"I saw you running through the hallways this morning. You almost didn't make it in time. Was it because you woke up late? Had a lot of men to entertain last night?"

I chuckled, able to understand her meaning by the word 'entertain'. "How'd you know? Were you stalking me, Monique? You a paparazzi or something?"

"I'm really amazed by your hard work, Amora." Monique's voice was filled with sarcasm. "But I'm curious though. How many còcks are you able to eat up every night? Like the average."

I lost it. I stopped munching my food, offended by those words. The students around us laughed and snickered too.

"If I were you I'd shut up my mouth."

"Oh come on, don't be mad. I was just asking." Monique didn't stop pushing me to my limits. "Besides, if I were born poor like you, with no family or friends, I would suck someone's dìck for a few dollars too―Argghhhh!"

Monique winced in pain when I suddenly grabbed her hair.

"I told you to shut up, didn't I?" I said with gritted teeth before throwing her against the table.

But it was not long when a group of quarterbacks, one of them named Sam, Monique's boyfriend, came to protect his princess.

Monique came running towards his boyfriend. "Babe, she pushed me against the table!" she was exaggerating her expression and it made my blood boil.

"You dare lay your filthy hands on my girlfriend?" Sam stepped up close to me. He was much taller and packed with muscles so I couldn't help but get scared.

"She started it first."

"But isn't it true though? That you're a prostitute who sells your body to old men hungry for sèx?"

My mouth opened but no words were coming out of it. I can no longer defend myself because what he said was true.

"Woah, look at this!"

Another quarterback went through my bag and found the gold necklace I earned.

"What are you doing?! Give that back to me!" I yelled and tried to steal the necklace from him but he was fast to toss it to Sam.

"This is some high-quality gold! Where did you get this, Amora?"

"Probably from one of her customers!" Monique rolled her eyes.

"Do you want this, babe?" My eyes widened when Sam offered it to Monique.

"Oh, you'll give it to me? How sweet!"

"I said give that necklace back! That's mine!" As I try to go to Monique in order to retrieve it, a foot suddenly blocks my way resulting in me falling face-first on the floor.

That hurt!

Everyone laughed, including those students sitting at the tables. The bullying didn't stop there, Agnes gets a plate of pasta and then drops it all over me including the drink.

All I was able to do at that moment was take a deep sigh. I basically can't do anything to defend myself. Me against everyone? There's no way I'll win.

"Here's the gold necklace from your sugar daddy if it's that precious to you." Monique mocked me before throwing the necklace in my face.

With hands full of dirt and trembling, I picked it up from the ground. I can't lose the necklace. I sold myself just to get this.

"Miss Hamilton." A teacher suddenly butted in amidst the chaos but instead of lecturing everyone for bullying me, she did the opposite. "Principal's office. Now."

Upon arriving at the Principal's office, I got scolded and given a penalty for causing a commotion. I will be cleaning the whole gym by myself after class. On my way there, I bumped into someone.

"Oh! I'm sorry!"

My bag fell on the floor but he was kind enough to pick it up and hand it to me.

"No, It's fine." I forced a smile and walked away.

I arrived at the gym and started to clean. It was already dark when I heard familiar voices entering the gym.

"Are you sure she's here?"

"Of course, I heard that the principal had given her the penalty to clean the gym."

"I can't wait to taste her. Amora is really pretty but I'm sure she'll be prettier underneath me."

"But what if she'll sue us for rape? I don't wanna go to jail, boys."

"Oh come on! That girl is a prostitute. No one would believe her."

Those voices come from the same group of quarterbacks who bullied me earlier. Including Sam.

I hurriedly got my bag from one of the benches and immediately flew out of the gym using the emergency exit. They heard my fast and loud footsteps that caused them to be alarmed.

"That's her!"

"She's running away!"

I hear them coming after me and I run faster. There were almost no students or teachers inside the campus so I had none to go and ask for help.

"Arghh!" I winced in pain when I stumbled to the ground. I looked back and saw that they were getting nearer and nearer so I used up all my strength to lift myself up.

"Get back here, stripper!"

They shouted and I made my pace faster. I reached the back gate of the school and was immediately greeted by a wide road. Multiple vehicles were beeping on me as I tried to cross the road.

The quarterbacks are on the opposite side of the road running and waiting for a perfect timing to cross.

I reached a corner and entered it in hopes that I could get away from the quarterbacks. As soon as I thought that I was finally safe and free, two familiar faces greeted me at the dead-end of the road.

"Hey." one greeted me with a smirk.

It was the loan sharks holding a knife in their hands. I took a few steps back in fear.

"You said to go and find you before the sun sets." He pointed the tip of the knife above. "The moon has arrived, where is the money?"

"I have it."

I immediately opened my bag and searched for the necklace. But to my disappointment, it was nowhere to be seen. The beat of my heart started to go loud and fast in nervousness. I remembered putting it back here!

"Where is it.." I whispered and I began to panic. I continued searching. I opened every zipper and peeked at every corner but there was none.

The loan sharks snorted. "Where's the money ?"

"It's.. it's right h-here.. I was sure I put in my b-bag.." I tried to remember everything I did earlier and then the scene of that one student bumping against me appeared in my mind. "Someone s-stole it..! A boy from the school stole the necklace that I was going to give to you.. i-if you'll just give me another day I'll go.. a-and try to―"

"Are you making a fool of us here?" that one man exclaimed.

"We had enough of those kinds of lies." another said before walking toward me. "We came for you yesterday and you said you'll give the money today.. but you failed to do so.. you'll know what will happen, right?"

My knees collapsed and I immediately kneeled in front of them with palms rubbing against each other.

"Please j-just give me another d-day.. I p-promise.. to pay the debt first thing in the morning tomo―"

I couldn't finish my sentence because of a hard slap on my cheek coming from the man in front of me. The pain made me tear up, water flooding my vision.

The man squatted in front of me and harassed and pulled my chin to face him.

"If you don't wanna die.." he used the knife to twirl it around my hair. "..why don't you just join us in bed?"

"That's a good idea! HAHAHA!"

"I mean, it wouldn't be such a big deal since you're a prostitute, right?"

Feeling offended, I shot a glare at him and he pulled my hair. "Don't fucking look at me like that."

"She's here!"

"We found her!"

My nervousness doubled. The beat of my heart now is as loud as drums making me deaf. The quarterbacks that were after me have arrived.

"Who are you?" one of the loan sharks asked.

"Friends of hers. She owes us a fùck."

"Great. We wouldn't mind sharing. The more the merrier." what the other loan shark had said gave me goosebumps and I was filled with nothing but disgust.

"But the two of us will go first."

"No way, we're her friends. We had a reservation which means you'll be fucking after us."

The worst-case scenario has happened. I'm being cornered on both sides. With no chance of escaping. No signs to be saved.

Why does my life always have to be this hard? Was I a bad person in my past life to deserve this?

I was in the middle of accepting my fate when I heard two familiar voices echoing all over the area.

"You disgusting pigs! Who gave you the permission to touch her?!"

"Get lost or we'll kill every single one of you."
