*Rose* Nervous anticipation fills me as I wait for Tristan to arrive. Unlike last night with Mark, there’s no dinner. There’ll be no walk in the garden or anything romantic. He’s just coming to my room. To fuck me. It isn’t my choice for it to be this way, but Vienna informed me that this is the
Then, his hands are on me, and he is pulling the tie around my robe so that it comes undone. His large hands are on my shoulders, pushing the smooth fabric down my arms to the floor. When he finally pulls away from me so that I can take a breath, my lungs are burning. He is so much more intense tha

She doesn’t let me walk away, though. She comes around the rack, two of her friends in tow. “By the way,” she begins as Shelby and Kelly step toward me, alarmed looks on their faces. “I’m super pissed that you talked to Mark about me!”I turn and look at her. “I didn’t–”“Save it!” she shouts. “He c
*Mark* I pace around my room and continue to curse loudly at the walls. I think back to when I went to confront Emily about the lies she had spun about me to Rose. It's impossible not to recognize the way Emily looks at me—like I'm a slab of juicy meat she can't wait to sink her teeth into. She st
