-Vincent-I was so proud of how Evelyn was handling herself in front of Samantha, but I couldn’t help but be afraid of what might happen to Evelyn. I don’t care if Evelyn could take care of herself. This is Samantha, and she always has something bad under her sleeves. Something so destructive. I have seen her do it so many times that I couldn’t let her do it to Evelyn. So when she came back to greet us, I already made sure that Garrett, Emmet, and Tony are aware of what is happening.“Vincent,” she continued, placing a hand on my arm, pulling me close to her, but I just shrugged her hand off. I could see the irritation in Samantha, but she continued, “We need to talk.”I don’t know what the hell it was that she wanted to talk about, and honestly, I am not in the mood to even hear her voice. I have far more important things to take care of and a very important person to focus on.Once again, she tried to get her hands on my arm, but Evelyn stopped her by stepping between us. “Get ou
-Eve-I've always been a good girl, chasing decent grades, nurturing friendships, and doting on my boyfriend Stephen. But now, here I am, standing in the corner with all the grace of a polite spectator, watching Stephen marry Stella, my so-called best friend.I can still remember the exact things that he had said to me just a week ago."Baby, I need to go to New York to meet an important client. You know that I am doing all of this for our future right?" He kissed me goodbye with a warm smile."Yes, I do." He looked at Stella with a smile, the same smile he had given me a week ago.How can he easily forget what we shared?"I can’t believe that I have married a chef! Your food always tastes amazing. You're always working so hard. " He kissed my hands, my hands that I’m always embarrassed about because of their roughness because of all the part-time jobs I had over the years. But Stephen never minded it."I will always be loyal to you." Now, he kissed her hand.I just stood there, watch
-Eve-The anxiety of not knowing got the best of me so I stood up and left the room. As I got out of the room I was in, I wandered towards the exit and found myself in what seemed like a hidden park inside the building. I was amazed at how beautiful the place looked, on a good day I would have stayed and admired the place. But I need to get out of here and find my cheating ex-boyfriend and ex-bestfriend. If they think they can easily get away from me they are wrong. "I'm not wrong. Shouldn't you reflect on yourself? Sophie is prettier than you and has a gentler personality. You're so unromantic. Every day with you is torture for me. Do you understand? Leave us."A girl was pushed to the ground and was crying silently. In front of her, there was a man and a woman, their half-naked bodies and love bites telling everything. What the hell is wrong with the world? And how come there are more jerks than there are good guys? Before I knew it, my feet moved on their own and didn’t stop
-Eve-I woke up early the next day to start the first day of my debt-paying days.My life was supposed to turn to hell yesterday. However, the girl with the clipboard came back to me and, to my surprise, her angry expression was gone. She told me that the investors had decided to let me work for the company as compensation.I took out that business card and read it again. Dreamweaver Company is one of the top ten companies in the world. I didn't know if the goddess of fate took pity on me and actually wanted to save me.I am still not sure what kind of work they are going to ask me to do, but as long as I won’t be subjected to human trafficking or be a sex worker it would be okay. I arrived a few minutes earlier than scheduled and couldn’t help but stand in front of the tallest building in the city. I can’t believe that I get to work for this company. The HR personnel received me, “Miss Eve Anderson, from today on, you will be the Executive Assistant to the company’s CEO.I blinked a
-Eve-I arrived home smiling as I remembered what had happened that day. “Is that you Eve?” my grandmother called out from the kitchen. “Yes, Nana,” I replied as I hurriedly walked toward the kitchen to give her a hug and kiss. My parents died in a car accident when I was still young and all I have was my Nana. Everything I had been working hard for was all for her. I wanted to make sure that she could stop selling at the market and just enjoy some time with her friends instead. “Set the table dear,” she replied as turned off the stove. I helped her bring everything she had cooked to the table and was surprised at the amount of food she had cooked.“Why did you cook a lot, Nana?” I asked as I took the seat in front of her and was ready to dig in when Nana’s question surprised me. “It’s your first day of your internship, isn’t Stephen joining us?” Her question was so innocent that I couldn’t help but feel guilty that I hadn’t told her what Stephen did to me. “No, he won’t I repl
-Eve-“Hello, Evelyn,” Vincent freaking Beckett said with a smirk on his face.“Fancy seeing you again,” he added.I froze from where I stood as I looked at Vincent as he walked naked toward the girl on the bed. “You,” he said in a harsh tone, “Leave.”I was surprised at the way he spoke but didn’t dare make any sound. I can see the look on the woman’s face as she looked at me and I can tell that I interrupted something that shouldn’t be disturbed. I heard her stump away but didn’t look in her direction, afraid of what I would see.“Do you have it?” I heard Vincent say, making me confused at first but then realized who the hell he was.“Yes,” I replied as I placed the envelope on the couch near me. “I’m not going to eat you, Eve,” he said. “Bring the file to me,” he added.I picked up the envelope and the sigh that escaped my lips made him laugh. I walked towards him thinking over and over again how I ended up getting in this situation. And then I remember debt and jail and that w
-Eve-Out of the worst thing I imagine I found myself in this I would rate this experience as my worst.How can I not? I’m stuck here cleaning for my naked boss who turned out to be the biggest playboy at school, Vincent Beckett!But all of my bad luck started the moment that my douche ex-boyfriend decided to marry my whore of an ex-best friend. After that, everything in my life just started to go wrong. Still, I can’t believe that I would be in Vincent Beckett’s room cleaning after his mess because the asshole was a clean freak. If he was a clean freak why the hell create this kind of mess? I mean how can you even call the aftermath of your love making a mess? And how could he send his girlfriend out like that? I feel sorry for the girl, but it’s her fault that she fell in love with an asshole.I sighed as I continued to vacuum the carpet, everything was going smoothly until I reached the side of the bed. “What the hell is this?” I asked as I pulled something only to find a lacey s
-Eve-One thing I hate more than my asshole boyfriend is to be indebted to someone, especially if that someone is my greatest rival, Vincent Beckett. But it seems as though my debt with him just keeps on piling up and knowing that scares me.I mean, I never hated him for being one of my toughest rivals. In fact, I enjoy it. I enjoyed seeing his face whenever the top of our school was released. But lately, seeing his face is one of the things I have begun to hate. Every time we see each other he always sees me at my most vulnerable and my most embarrassing moment. It’s like my world is falling apart and I can't do anything but watch it. And to make it worse, Vincent was right there sitting in the front row watching how my world crumbles. I may be smart, but lately, it makes me feel like I am the dumbest girl in the world because I fell in love with an asshole. “You can drop me at the bus stop,” I said softly as I pointed ahead. “Why?” Vincent asks, but I don’t dare look at him. “I

-Eve-“Oh, we don’t really care what you believe in,” I said, smiling, even though in reality I was a nervous wreck. I am not sure where I got my confidence from, but at that moment, my protective instinct stepped in, and I no longer cared about who I was talking to. “What really matters at the end of the day is, I am beside Vincent, I came here with Vincent, and I am leaving with Vincent. Which is why you are there, standing on your own, trying to get the attention of the man who clearly doesn’t want to see you.” I watched her face morphed from being an entitled bitch that looked so unbreakable into a bitch that has no class at all. And that was what I was waiting for. The opportunity to show everyone who she really was. The person that she hides behind her fake facade and millionaire name. “You bi-,” she almost screamed, but before she could turn into the monster that she really was, the woman beside her stopped her. She looked around as if realizing where she really was and the
-Vincent-I could see the determination in Evelyn’s eyes. I know that what she said was the right thing to do, but the fear in me wouldn’t just go away. I have almost lost her before, and I don’t want that to happen again anytime soon. And the person we are talking about isn’t just any person. This is Samantha. For some, she seemed like a harmless, spoiled brat. But for me and my friends, she is worse than the devil himself. I know that I could do worse, but I also know that Evelyn wouldn’t let me do that. She may call me Lucifer, but to her, I am more of a fallen angel, redeemable, and never the bad one. Little did she know that I am not that kind of person. I have always thought that I was not someone who could be redeemed. Until Evelyn came. “I am still worried that you would meet her little devil,” I state the obvious. I know that she knows what I mean, and I am really trying my best to be able to meet her halfway. She wants honesty, then that’s what I am going to give to her
-Eve-“Yes, little devil,” he answered. “I had loved you long before I knew what love meant.”I didn’t know that he loved me. I mean, maybe a part of me did, but I didn’t really expect him to say it to me. Didn’t expect him to confess to me. I am a nobody and he is Vincent Freaking Beckett. I look at the man in front of me, and I suddenly feel awkward. Keep yourself together.I ordered myself. Not wanting to embarrass myself once again. “Are you okay?” Vincent asked worriedly. “Yes,” I replied, “but I want to leave this place.” Vincent nodded as he stood up and guided me out. He led me to an elevator that I don’t remember riding up when we had arrived. But that doesn’t really matter right now. Once we reached the basement, the door opened. Carl was already behind the wheel, waiting for us. “Carl knew about this?” I asked. “He knows most of the things about my life,” Vincent replied as he opened the door of the car for me. “And he gets paid handsomely for keeping his mouth shu
-Eve-I couldn’t believe what the hell I was seeing. I was not even sure if this was still right. I looked at Vincent, and automatically, my thoughts of him being a good person began to waver. “If you have questions you need to ask,” Vincent reminded me calmly. “For this relationship to work, I need you to be totally honest with me. I need you to tell me the entire truth. And I need you to use your safe word if this is something that makes you uncomfortable.” It really makes me uncomfortable, especially after seeing so many films about girls taken away from their families and sold to the syndicate to be auctioned like this. “Are-,” I choked on my own question, not sure how to ask Vincent. But he was right, I need to be honest because I want him to be honest. I need to know the truth. “Are they girls who are kidnapped?” Vincent blinked at me several times as if he wasn’t sure if he heard me right. “Kidnapped?” He repeated. “Yes, kidnapped. You know, like those girls who are drug
-Eve-When Vincent promises something, he delivers. I was in heaven after Vincent gave me what I asked for. I could hear people moving around us as I caught my breath. My body was still convulsing as Vincent gently cleaned me up.“That was…” I started to say, but was too out of breath to finish. “Mind blowing.” I could see the proud smile he was wearing even though he was trying his best not to show it to me. He let me rest and as I look up, that’s when I saw a roof on top of our booth. Now it make sense, the button that Vincent pressed before he proceeded on fulfilling his promise was for the roof and the blinds. With the lights on, I could clearly see that our booth was different from those below us. The booths below had curtains, while ours was like a cubicle with thick walls. It was like a small room in a house, giving us all the privacy we needed to do whatever the hell it was that we wanted. After Vincent was sure that I was cleaned, he sat on the bed-like couch but didn’t
-Eve-I don’t know where I got my courage from. I’m not even sure why I suddenly became so bold.“Make me cum.”I thought I would be embarrassed for saying it, for even thinking about it. But I didn’t feel that way. Vincent never made me feel that way.“Is that what you really want?” Vincent pulled me closer to him, there was no doubt in the way he asked me. It was as if he were asking for permission. As if my opinion and answer matter.“Yes,” I replied, almost out of breath. I didn’t have to ask Vincent twice. I saw him press a button, although I don’t know what it does. Vincent’s mouth crushed into mine with so much hunger that everything around us faded away. “I missed you,” Vincent whispered as his hands roamed my body like her couldn’t get enough of me. “I missed you, too,” I said, out of breath as Vincent continued to kiss and caress me. He pulled out my breast out of my clothes and and suck at each one of them. I moaned, unable to control the pleasure I was feeling. The know
-Vincent-*Trigger warning: "This content may contain depictions of [violence, sexual assault, trauma etc.] that some readers may find disturbing." If you are sensitive to this topic, please skip this chapter. Evelyn hasn’t said the safe word yet. Ever since we walked in, she has been quiet and observing. I saw the way she looked at each of the rooms that we stopped by. There was no judgment in them. I know that Evelyn is just seeing the beginning and not yet the dark side of it. As much as I want to confirm to myself that there was a big chance for her to accept me as a whole. I couldn’t do that. Not until she sees the last room of this place.The hardest part of this process isn’t showing her the lifestyle that I've gotten used to. The hardest part in this process is letting her see it as something positive and not look at me like I was a pervert. She glanced at me once in a while, and I could clearly see the internal battles behind her eyes, but she never said anything. I don’t
-Eve-*Trigger warning: "This content may contain depictions of [violence, sexual assault, trauma etc.] that some readers may find disturbing." If you are sensitive to this topic, please skip this chapter. Vincent’s other side definitely took me by surprise.They were also right. This is beyond me. I know that Vincent is different. I just didn’t know that he was that different. “Breathe, little devil,” Vincent whispered. Sending chills down my spine. I exhaled the breath I didn’t know I was holding as I let the view in front of me unfold. I don’t know how to describe what I was feeling right now. Not sure if I could even find the right words. All I know is that this isn’t something I was expecting. “You have the power over everything, little devil,” Vincent reminded. “You have the power to stop everything; all you have to say is your safe word. If this makes you uncomfortable, all you have to do is say your safe word.”A part of me was tempted to do just that. Part of me thinks
