Chapter Ten Maya’s POV I stared at the red pieces of clothing in my hand trying to think of a way to put it on my body. This small stretch rope doesn’t look like a cloth at all.The guy noticed me being hesitant so he pushed me towards the bathroom. “Be fast, we still have to work on your makeup and hair . He wants you tonight and you need to look perfect” he said with so much sass. I can see some of the maids around me giving me pitiful looks but I didn’t care, the staff sympathising with me just makes this whole thing more humiliating.I took the piece of clothe that looks like a rope and heels to the bathroom and after what seems like eternity , I figured the dress out. The red dress was so soft and felt nice on my body, it stopped before my knees and exposed my legs …it was off shoulder with tiny bows as sleeves , it left the upper part of my body bare and the corset on the bra area made my cleavage look bigger and fuller.The back of the dress is completely strapless, the dress
Chapter Eleven Maya’s POV I held my breath and kept looking around the opulent office, heart pounding in my chest. I had never been in a room so grand, so intimidating. And the man behind the desk was the most imposing thing of all.He sat in a high-backed leather chair, his broad shoulders hunched over a stack of papers. I couldn't help but admire the way his suit hugged his muscular frame. He was handsome, in a dark and dangerous way, with piercing blue eyes that seemed to stare straight through her.I took a hesitant step backwards out of fear , her heels clicking against the polished floor. The man looked up at her, his expression hard and unyielding."How dare you defy me?" he growled.My heart sank but I took a deep breath and squared my shoulders, determined to show him she wasn't afraid but before I could talk back to him ,his phone rang. He casually picked the smartphone and brought it to his ears , his eyes darkened while receiving the call before he hung up and we immed
Chapter Twelve Maya’s POV I looked down at the red tiny dress as my lips wobbled. Maybe I shouldn't have agreed to be taken as collateral for the crimes my father never committed but I got more brave when I remember that I sacrificed myself to make sure that my family is safe because I love them. My head is filled with different thoughts as my trembling hands held onto the handle of the dress; I stepped out of it carefully and let it fall to the ground;My white skin came into view; I had never been naked in front of a man before, and the first man I would show her nakedness to was this beast. I wished I wasn't this vulnerable, I wished my father had made the right choices and didn’t get himself into trouble and I also wished that Jacob was a more decent man then I wouldn’t be here in this fucked up position. ''Take off those too. '' He said calmly while his eyes focused on the lingerie on my body. Tears filled my eyes; I stared at him with so much hate and disgust; I had never se
Chapter Thirteen Maya’s POV I took another long, hot and scorching bath. I scrubbed my body so hard as if it would help me get rid of the humiliation. It's even more annoying that he didn’t touch me because it means he has other plans for me. A little part of me was disappointed that he didn’t touch me. Does he hate me that much or am I just not desirable? First Jacob rejected me and now Aaron kept me for days and never laid his hands on me. I'm not complaining but I can’t help thinking about this because I am an overthinker. I came out of the bath after the water had turned really cold. I don’t know how long I have been in there but I know it was more than an hour. I fried my body and opened the decent sized wardrobe to see that it is stocked with plain t-shirts in dark colors with a few pairs of jeans trousers and a black converse, even though the clothes looked basic I could tell that they cost a fortune , the material just feels and radiates differently on my skin and it’s not
Chapter Fourteen Maya’s POV “That was a stupid thing to do especially when I'm running away from a powerful enemy but I am already too tired, my soul and body is tired !” I slept off for a brief second ,just a tiny brief second and when I opened my eyes. I saw myself back at the devil’s mansion but I closed my eyes hoping it's just a dream as I fell asleep.With a sudden jolt, I snapped awake. The gentle hum of the engine beneath me, the rhythmic vibrations, and the warmth of sunlight on my face woke me up from sleep. Confusion fogged my mind for a moment, but it quickly lifted, revealing the car's interior. The sun was casting a warm golden glow through the windows.As I stretched and yawned, a delicious , rich and tantalising smell invaded my senses. My stomach rumbled in response, as if it recognized the delicious aroma. Cheeseburgers. It was the mouthwatering aroma of cheeseburgers that had stirred me from my slumber. I rubbed my eyes, trying to shake off the remnants of sleep
Chapter Fifteen Maya’s POV My heart raced as Mason turned the car off the main road and onto a narrow path leading to an open green field. Confusion and panic gripped me; the landscape seemed familiar, yet unfamiliar, as if it existed in some distant memory. My voice trembled as I pleaded with Mason to stop, my cries growing louder and more desperate."Mason, please! Stop the car! Let me out!" I shouted, tears streaming down my face.But he remained resolute, his gaze fixed on the path ahead, ignoring my pleas. Panic surged through me as he locked the doors, the sound echoing like a final barrier between me and my escape. I pounded on the windows, my fists hitting glass that felt impossibly unyielding."Mason, why won't you listen? Let me go!" I screamed, my voice hoarse with fear.The car sped forward, my surroundings a blur of green and gold. I looked out at the expanse, feeling a mixture of dread and disbelief. This couldn't be happening. I couldn't be trapped like this, driven
Chapter Sixteen Aaron’s POV My eyes blazed with a furious fire as I surveyed the scene before me. Maya, my beloved pet, stood trembling with a bleeding forehead, a stark contrast against her pale shivering skin. I reined in Stormy which is the name of my big black horse, my knuckles whitening against the leather straps."Mason, I asked you to bring her back, not to hurt her! How dare you harm my pet!" My voice thundered across the clearing, cutting through the tension like a knife. The anger in my voice sent shivers down the spines of everyone present in my private horse ranch.Mason, his face contorted with guilt, shuffled nervously before my seething gaze. I hadn't anticipated the extent of my rage. "I-I didn't mean to,Alpha Aaron. It was an accident," he stammered, his voice barely audible amidst the weight of the situation.My rage was uncontainable. With a swift movement, I dismounted from my horse Stormy, the sheer force of my anger making the ground seem to tremble beneath
Chapter SeventeenMaya's POV My heart raced as I sat atop the majestic black horse, the wind tugging at my hair. Behind me, Aaron's strong arms wrapped around my waist, his touch sending shivers down my spine. With a mischievous grin, Aaron leaned in, his breath tickling my ear as he whispered something that made my cheeks flush.“Save your voice , you will need it for a different kind of scream “ he said and I knew what he was talking about .Annoyance welled up within me, and I turned to give him a piercing glare. But before I could muster my words, our faces accidentally collided, and our lips brushed against each other. Time stood still as an electric current surged between us, leaving us both breathless.My heart pounded in my chest, a mixture of surprise and anticipation swirling within me. I averted my gaze, suddenly feeling shy, my cheeks burning with a crimson hue. Aaron's scary voice broke the silence, his words dripping with amusement, "This is the second time you are try
