LOGIN23"I'M SORRY CLARISSA" he spoke.Lucian held Clarissa so close that he could feel her warmth.He felt the way her body tensed against him.The way a slight gasp eluded her lips."Lu... Lucian?" Stuttered Clarissa and only when his arms around her lessened with hesitation, she turned to fist her eyes on him."What are you sorry for?" She asked him.In his eyes his feelings could easily be told for the first time.Guilt.Regret and lots more."A lot of things. I'm sorry for letting you go five years ago.For treating you the way I did.For... For hating on you and not believing you when the entire world was against you" his gaze was lowered to the ground as though unable to raise her gaze to hers.Clarissa's eyes widened even more at his words. A slight pang of sorrow flashed through her eyes."Why?""Because I was foolish for not seeing what was in front of me""But why now?""Because I... I just found the truth. The truth about it all five years ago" he said wanting to say more but h
22"You drugged me last two nights. You wanted me to entertained that old man didn't you?Elena, are you really trying to sell your own sister?!WHY DID YOU DRUG MY DRINK?"I questioned heaving heavily as I stared at her."Clarissa what are you talking about?Weren't you drunk yesterday?" Responded Elena as she feigned ignorance."The hell! You know the truth so stop pretending" evidence of Clarissa's anger lingered in her voice."I told you, I don't know what you're talking about" she continued. Their voices was downed completely by the sounds of footsteps approaching.Looking behind Elena was Ethan. He was dressed so casually in his sweat pants, a cigarette to his lips and a lighter to his hand. "Damn you two. Can't someone have a peaceful morning without your ruckus?" He complained flickering the lighter on to lit his cigarette.Taking a drag, he came to stand beside Elena before puffing out the smoke."Oh, Clarissa. Didn't know you were the one here.What is it? Come to decide a
21EARLIER"William?"With my figure standing in the way and my eyes glued to him, I didn't realize how long I had been in that position until he fingers flickered my forehead snapping me out of my trance."Surprised?" He asked, head tilted to the side.My eyes went from Sophie who clung to his neck, to his face."Yes. Very much.You didn't tell me you were coming and how did you find your way here?""You didn't know?" He asked making the look of confusion to display on my face."I called last night trying to informing you of my whereabout but you weren't picking up. So instead I called Bruno and made him give me your address" he explained making me to recall last night event.Last night was a bit chaotic and seeing he called Bruno, Bruno must have forgotten to inform me when he saw my condition at the hospital."Hey, what happened to your face? You look pale?Have you been eaten" his fingers pinched away on my cheeks making me hiss.My reaction got a chuckle from him as he released m
20In a dim room illuminated by a dim lit candle whose flames flickered non stop was a man who hung loosely from the ceiling.Thick red blood dripped down his temple.Cheeks swollen on both sides and eyes as red as blood.Tears trickled down his cheeks as he mumbled words of pleas."Please... Forgive me..." The man was none other than the old hag Mr Ivan who along Traven had almost taken advantage of Clarissa.Footsteps approached in the distance setting him into a panicked state of mind."Really now" Lucian's voice boomed as he dragged the old wooden chair to seat in front of the man.A leg crossed over the other."I swear it. I'm sorry "Lucian's thumb went to the side of the lighter and with a tick sound, it's flame came to life revealing the cold expression on his face.It was such a pity that Traven wasn't here to take part in this torture.The incident that day had left him in a terrible state. Now, he was in a comma lying on one of the beds of the hospital."You dared to touch
19Under the soft mattress of the bed. In the well decorated hotel, Clarissa was kept.Her mouth moved but her words were inaudible as he watched her moaned to every little touch of his and the way she clenched her legs together."It's... Hot. So hot" she complained earnestly."Where... Where are we?""A hotel" he replied.Clarissa eye's went wide open at his words.Instantly,her hands flew to Lucian's face but before her palm could make an impact to his face, it was caught mid air.A low growl erupted round the room."What do you think you're doing?" Lucian asked, his brows furrowed together as he pressed himself above her."Don't you dare.... Think of... Touching m... Me" she said, a moan eluding her lips afterwards.Although she said this, her body completely said the opposite.Lucian knew she was fighting the drugs but how for how long?"Such a fighter aren't you?" He said leaving her and going to the bathroom to Draw a bath for her in hopes of calming her nerves but when he retu
18I WAS DRUGGED!***Tears filled the brim of my eyes at the realization that the person who drugged me was none other than my sister.She stood there, gaze peering at me watching as the men approached me. Of the two, one was way older than the other.I recognized him to be the guy who had stopped me earlier.His hands rubbed his chin. Eyes shamelessly wandered over my body.The other seemed more like his body guard from his attire."Look little damsel, we meet again" a grin crept up his lips."I must have may have given you the wrong impression of me before but let me fix it by giving you the night of your life.I promise you won't regret it" The words spewing from his mouth made my stomach twist in disgust.The more my steps faltered backwards, the more they inched closer.Not giving them the chance to close up on me, I sprinted out of there heading out to where my feet could take me and hopefully, that would be the hall where the soft music played.Definitely someone there could
