My Dangerous Uncle's Addiction

"Uncle?" I was surprised to see Uncle Matthew with a furrowed brow in my room, opening the curtains of my bedroom window."You should get up now because there are some things to do," he said as he walked towards the door after opening all the curtains.I was even more surprised by his words. "What do I have to do?" My forehead scrunched up, looking at him. Instead of answering, Uncle Matthew continued to walk out of my room.I snorted in annoyance. I didn't know what I was going to do today. I still wasn't in the mood to do anything, let alone go out. It feels so lazy. I still felt an overwhelming sadness inside me. I touched my chest, which felt painful and tight. This heart still couldn't accept the fact that my parents were gone."Are you still on the bed?" Uncle Matthew's voice standing in the doorway made me startle again. He was like a ghost, suddenly appearing to startle me. "No one will bathe you, so hurry up!"Oh my. That guy pissed me off. I roughly flung the blanket aside,

My uncle has a rugged, athletic, and strong body. I don't doubt that at all because I can feel it myself right now."Put me down, Uncle." I rebelled, trying to break free. But no matter how hard I tried, his two burly hands didn't move.Uncle Matthew carried me easily as if my body wasn't heavy. I weighed more than 40 kilograms.He carried me into the room and then threw my body roughly onto the bed. I was shocked by what he did."What did you do?" I stared at him with my heart beating fast. "Why are you being like this to me?"Uncle Matthew came closer, making his signature perfume strong in my nose. "You should act like a mature woman and be more cautious." His harsh tone made me even more shocked, shaking with fear."What should I be wary of?" I ventured to ask him, even with a trembling voice.His blue eyes, slightly covered by his hair, looked at me sharply. "You can't just hook up with a guy. All men are like wolves. They'll use you slyly."Was he talking about my closeness with

I glanced at the clock in my hand. It was precisely two in the afternoon. Thankfully, Theo was able to get home early and invited me to meet up.I walked into the small cafe in the alley. It's my regular cafe. This place is relatively quiet. I deliberately chose this cafe because my conversation with Theo was a secret. I didn't want anyone to know.I sat at one of the tables by the window. A waitress came over to me. "Anything you'd like to order, Miss?"I opened the menu book, pointing at one of the drink menus. "Just this."The waitress made a note in a small book. "Please wait a moment. Your order will be made soon."The waitress left. I squeezed my trembling hands together. My gaze traveled around with a feeling of uneasiness and fear. I wanted to talk to Theo immediately. Why hadn't he come yet?I was distracted when my phone screen lit up and rang. Theo's name was on it. I quickly picked it up. "Where are you?""I still have a few things to do. I need some time." I heard Theo's

After saying that, Uncle Matthew walked away. I rushed into the room feeling upset. He shouldn't have said that. I could take care of myself, although I must admit, that incident made me really scared.I sat on the edge of the bed, hugging myself. If Uncle Matthew hadn't saved me, I might have died. Actually, I still felt fear for him because it was possible that Uncle Matthew still wanted to kill me, considering the conversation he had on the phone yesterday. However, why did the uncle who wanted to kill me save me?I held my head, feeling the dizziness coming on. "This is so strange. What exactly is he planning?"I clucked in annoyance, putting together the puzzle pieces that had only been arranged a few. I couldn't find the answer to that at all. If Uncle Matthew wanted to kill me, shouldn't he have let me get killed by the villain earlier?My lips trembled as I looked down at my red-colored sleeves. A fishy odor wafted strongly to my nose. I touched that part. This was Uncle Matth
