The noise of people filled the hub, and the loud music wouldn't let anyone hear a thing.
Drunk people were falling to the floor and the not drunk yet were still drinking. The place was a hotel, but had a casino created inside it. The casino was always packed with rich people gambling away their money and having the most fun time of their lives. It was the most disgusting place to ever be as a lady, yet many young ladies were here rubbing their bodies against these old rich men. Selene doesn't like places like this but what could she do when her stepmother sent her here? She held her tray serving cocktails and wine to the men as usual, she always does this every night before going home to sleep. This was the only way she could raise her brother's hospital bill. It was fast and came up easily. If she refused this way, her stepmother would stop his treatments as she always threatened. Her little brother was like bait they used to torment her in the house. Selene doesn't have a say in her life else Jason was the one to suffer it, for that, she followed every instruction her stepmother dished out to her carefully. "How dare you!" A client suddenly spat, and Selene shook on the spot. She didn't realize when she had spilled a client’s drink. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I'll clean it up now, I'm really sorry.." She apologized but the man only sneered. "You think that's enough you b!tch?" He yelled, his eyes on the messed-up table. "I'll get it cleaned up, please forgive me.." Selene begged frantically, even though she didn't know when she had done this. Before she knew it, her boss had rushed to the scene. "Selene what have you done! Do you know Mr Clinton is our VIP client? Why did you anger him?" "I'm sorry boss, he said I poured a drink, I didn't even know when I did that." "Are you trying to call me a liar?" Mr Clinton howled, his voice at the top of his lungs while his other seatmate only laughed. "Hurry up and say you're sorry." Her boss urged. "I'm very sorry Sir," Selene muttered again even though she had said that many times already. "The only way to sort this out is.." He licked his lower lip, coming closer to Selene. Selene shifted back but the more he came closer, his eyes were glued on her bo*bs, and his face filled with lust already. "You know what to do, or else I'll close down this place!" He threatened. Selene begged to be forgiven but this only added to his rage. She knew what he was requesting for and there was no way she'd let that happen. She kept moving back and he hijacked her collar. "Don't play with me whore! You know what I mean." He spat. Mr Clinton had always wanted Selene since she started working at the Casino but he didn't know how to get her as she wasn't among the ladies of the night and she carried herself carefully so no one would mistake her for the girls. When he saw Selene lost in thought and her mind far away, he seized the opportunity and poured the drink near the edge and called Selene to it. Since she wasn't in her right mind and worried for her sick brother, she couldn't think clearly but agreed she had done it. Selene turned to her boss for help. But he only said, "Do whatever he says." Panic surged through her bones, unsure of what to do. "I can only forgive you, if you warm my bed tonight." He smirked and his friends laughed. "Now let's go up." He muttered and held her waist, but Selene jerked away his hand. "How dare you defy me, how dare you! Do you know who I am??" Mr Clinton was those rich men, who never hesitate to use their power on people wherever they found themselves. "I'm the CEO of MM, Many ladies want to be in my bed, who do you think you are?!" Mr Clinton yelled. "Gurl just do it.." The whores muttered to Selene, but she didn't even look at them. She would never let this happen to her, not this old hag. She turned around for her boss again but he was gone, leaving her to her nightmare. Before she could think of a way out, some bulky men arrived at the scene and swept her off her feet. When she tried to scream for help, her mouth was tied in split seconds. Selene struggled to free herself but they were too strong and held her firmly. They took her up to a room and locked her inside. She screamed for help. Just then, something began entering her throat, and she started feeling funny. Down there was getting wet for no reason, then she realized they had sprayed an aphrodisiac in the room. They were ready for her, in a split second, the door sprang open, revealing Mr Clinton. "Please don't do this to me, let me go!" Selene begged but Mr Clinton smirked. His eyes held lust as he moved closer to her. "Stay away from me!" She screamed. This was getting on Mr Clinton's nerves already, and the next thing he slapped her across the face. "Shut up you wench, do you know how many of your mates are dying to be here?" Selene couldn't hold her stinging cheeks as her hands were tied behind her. She pushed her way back down from the bed where Mr Clinton had thrown her. "Don't do this, I beg you.." She begged, the aphrodisiac had begun its work, as Selene felt drowsy, her eyelids were getting heavy, and beginning to close, she dragged them open. She had been aroused. She needed it, but of course not with this man. Selene had tears brimming in her eyes. She couldn't believe this was happening to her right now. Mr Clinton was completely naked now and began tearing off her clothes. "Please don't do this!" She begged desperately. Her mind was getting blurry. Her system needed pleasure, she had been drugged. Mr Clinton beckoned to her and placed his lips against hers to start devouring them.The investigation team did not take long to track down Desmond Roland. By Tuesday morning, Lucas’s head investigator sent a pinned location to the private security team. Desmond was hiding out at an old truck garage on the industrial outskirts of the city.Inside the dim, oil-stained garage, Desmond was standing near the back of a disassembled semi-truck. He was wrapping up a conversation with three strangers. They were speaking in low tones, exchanging small slips of paper. Desmond looked older, his face rough from years on the streets, but he still wore the same dirty leather jacket from his old neighborhood days."Look, just get the cash ready by Thursday," Desmond told the tallest man, wiping some stains off his hands with a rag. "I don't like waiting around."Before the man could answer, the heavy metal side doors of the garage kicked open with a loud bang.Six of Lucas Yates’s private security guards rushed into the space. They were dressed in plain black tactical gear, moving w
The luxury lounge was still full of soft music and the sound of people clinking glasses, but for Judith Sterling, everything had gone cold. She sat at the table, staring at the pile of cash Fred had thrown at her. It was more money than most people earned in a month, but it felt heavy and shameful in her purse. It was the price of her pride, the final payment for a relationship that had just ended in front of everyone.With shaking hands, she put the money away and stood up. Her head felt a bit dizzy from the drinks, but the pain of being rejected made her realize she had no other choice. She walked out of the lounge and called for a taxi.When the car pulled up to the front of the Sterling Manor, Judith’s heart sank. The big gates were wide open, and the driveway was messy with scraps of paper and dust. Leonard was standing there, looking smaller and more tired than she had ever seen him. He was surrounded by four large suitcases that looked much too heavy for him to carry alone.Jud
Leonard hung up and immediately called his sister, Judith. He needed a way to get his bags to Ophelia’s apartment, and he didn't even have enough money to pay for a taxi or a van."Judith, I need a favor," Leonard said quickly. "I’m out. The house is gone. I need you to tell your boyfriend, Fred, to bring his car. I have several large suitcases and some things I couldn't leave behind. I need him to pick me up right now and take me to Ophelia’s."At that moment, Judith Sterling was sitting in a very expensive lounge. She was already having her second drink, and she was feeling a bit dizzy. Fred Thompson sat across from her, looking bored and annoyed with their date.Judith put her phone down and looked at Fred with a careless smile. "Hey, babe. That was Leonard. He is in trouble. He needs you to drive to the house and pick him and his bags up. He is moving into Ophelia’s place for a bit."Fred’s eyes became narrow, and he put his glass down on the table very hard. The nice feeling of t
The weekend had passed in a heavy, quiet way. For several days, the private investigation team had been working day and night. They were busy tracing the life of Desmond Roland through old police records and small neighborhood bars. Lucas stayed close to his computer, his mind constantly thinking about the best time to tell the truth. He knew this secret would take away everything Serah had stolen. Every time he looked at the DNA report, he felt a strong, protective love for Selene. He wasn't just holding a piece of paper, he was holding the key to her peace.But another Monday had arrived, bringing the weight of the Yates family’s future with it. The morning sun moved across Lucas’s desk, lighting up the thick stack of papers bound in dark blue leather. These were the final terms for the Kimberlite Experience, the big project that would join the Yates name with the famous Jameson family.Lucas stood by the window, looking at his reflection. He felt a deep sweetness in his heart knowi
The night was very quiet, but inside Lucas’s office, the air felt heavy with secrets. He had been sitting in the same spot for nearly an hour, his eyes fixed on the glow of his computer screen. Just as he was about to finish for the night, a new message flashed on the screen from his investigation team. It was marked... URGENT.Lucas clicked it open. His heart started to beat faster as he read the first few lines. The investigators had moved past Serah’s school years and into her early twenties. They had found an old medical record from a small clinic that had been closed down years ago.The document was a DNA report that had been hidden in a private file for a very long time. It was never meant to be seen by the Henry family. Lucas felt a cold shock as he looked at the names on the paper.The report stated very clearly that Anna was not the biological child of Selene's father, Edward Henry.Lucas leaned closer to the screen, his mind racing. If Edward wasn't her father, then who was?
The evening sun dipped low over the California coast, painting the sky in warm, gentle colors as the day began to fade. Inside the penthouse, the air was still and calm. Selene had finally finished the last of the papers for the Jameson partnership and was resting on the sofa, watching the waves through the large glass windows. Lucas, however, was still in his office. He had the door closed, and the only light in the room came from his computer screen.He clicked on the secret file his investigation team had just sent. He felt a deep, protective love for Selene; he was doing this to protect her heart and her future, making sure she would always be safe from those who meant her harm.The file opened to show old documents from thirty years ago. They were from a small, quiet town where Serah had grown up. The first page was an old school record, but it wasn't the grades that caught Lucas's eye. It was a formal letter from the school leaders.As Lucas read, his face became very serious. T
The hallway outside the ICU felt like it had turned into a tunnel of cold air. Selene stood by the glass door, the photograph trembling in her hand. The man standing there—a high-level executive she recognized from the Sterling’s rival firm... He looked like a businessman. But the coldness in his e
The penthouse was dead silent when Lucas finally let himself in at 4:00 AM. The air felt heavy, like the atmosphere before a massive storm. In his hand, he carried a small, crinkled brown bag of sour green apples—the very thing he had used as an excuse to step out and fall into the Sterlings' trap
The sterile smell of the hospital bleach, latex, and cold air... was starting to make Selene’s head spin. She sat by Lucas’s bed, watching the rhythmic rise and fall of his chest. He had drifted back into a deep, healing sleep after their brief conversation. For the first time in forty-eight hou
The silence following the doctor’s question felt like it lasted a century. Selene’s hand was still gripping her phone, the line to Lucas’s father still open, but she couldn't breathe. She searched the doctor’s eyes for any sign of hope, her mind screaming for a miracle."The surgery was complicated
