-Vincent-

Finally, the day that I had been preparing for has arrived.

“Your grandmother called, sir,” Carl said pulling me back to the present.

“What does she want now?” I asked with a sigh. Since I had slipped about having a girlfriend to stop her from setting me up with blind dates, she never stopped asking me to meet Evelyn. Leading me to make the first mistake I had ever made in my entire life.

“We are having our annual charity ball this year,” she said yesterday morning.

“I am expecting your girlfriend to be there or I’ll start setting you up for blind dates again.”

I hate to admit that I forgot about the charity ball.

Which left me with no choice.

If my grandmother wants to know Evelyn, then she will know who Evelyn is. But on my own terms.

“You’re grandmother wanted you to know that if you didn’t bring your so-called girlfriend, she will start matching you on the event tonight. And if you decide to bail, she will strip your title as CEO of Dreamweaver for fun,” Carl recit

    -Eve-I have never been invited to an event with more than ten participants.And as much as I hate going to big events I really have no choice about this since it’s part of my agreement with Vincent. “We’re here, Ms. Anderson,” Carl announced as he stopped by the entrance and ran out to open the door for me. As I got out of the car I realized where we were, it was one of the famous hotels in the city. Carl led me inside and I followed him. He stopped in front of a double-door room with two men guarding the entrance. “She is Mr. Beckett’s girlfriend,” Carl explained to the two guards. “The program just started,” one of the guards explained as they looked at me, making me feel unwelcome.“I don’t think you would want to know what would happen once Mr. Beckett finds out that you didn’t let his girlfriend enter the premises.”I wanted to pull Carl away and tell him to just tell Vincent that we’re here and that I’ll just wait outside until the program ends. But the look that Carl has o

    -Vincent-If there was one thing Evelyn was very good at, it was studying.She is so good but still, I will always be better.I watched her interact with my friends and I can’t help but be proud of what she had become. One look at Emmet and Garrett I already know that they want to get a piece of her. Who wouldn’t when she looked so beautiful in the silver silk gown that she was wearing? I watched the way the two of them looked at her and for the first time, I felt the urge to let them know that no one touches her but me. I placed my arm behind her chair and intentionally moved her closer to me. Tony watched me silently but never said a word. One of the many things that I like about him.“I have eyes Vincent and one thing I can’t deny is that she is indeed good-looking,” Garrett said as he loosened the tie that he was wearing. A gesture I know so well. “Oh I know,” I replied, “I just want you to remember that she’s mine.”Both Emmet and Garrett looked at me. I know that my reply surp

    -Eve-I waited until we were inside Vincent’s car, trying my best not to let my knees buckle underneath me as I tried to comprehend exactly what had just happened. “What the hell?” I said screaming, surprising not only Vincent but also Carl who was now in the driver's seat. “Why did you do that?” I asked in a calmer voice this time.“I never knew my grandmother would stoop that low,” Vincent admitted. “Why don’t you just go back inside and ask for an apology?” I asked. I would really hate it if one of the richest women in the world hates me so much. “No!” Vincent snapped, his face unreadable. “Just do what you were paid to do.” I was about to retort something rude back at him but decided that this was not the right time. “Where to, Mr. Beckett?” Carl asked. “Let’s take Miss Anderson home first,” Vincent said. The drive home was uncomfortably silent. But none of us said anything. When we reached my house, Vincent was the one who opened the door for me and helped me out. I was

    -Eve-The weekend flew so fast and I haven’t heard anything from Vincent since the night of the party. I sent him messages asking him how he was but he hasn’t seen any of my messages. I know that I should be glad that he hasn’t contacted me yet, but I can’t help but worry for him. I just really hope that everything turns out okay for him. It was the first day of class and our last semester before we graduated. I hope that everything will go well with my scholarship. I know that I have money saved but I hate to use it. It feels like it isn’t mine even though I know that it was my payment. I just can’t help but feel guilty about the fact that Vincent paid me that amount and yet instead of making everything okay for him, I made it worse. I sighed before leaving our house and went straight to school.So far nothing seems wrong, especially with my enrollment. Even though there was a lot of whispering when I passed by the corridor, people staring, and no message from Vincent, it seemed l

    -Vincent-I was in a bad mood the whole morning simply because Evelyn decided that it was her duty to help her cafe friend, and the girl that was with her, a tour of our campus. “What’s wrong with you?” Emmet asked as he sat in front of me at lunch. “You had been in a sour mood since the third period.”I didn’t even consider answering his question. “He’s in that mood because Evelyn decided to be a goody-two-shoes leaving him with us,” If I didn’t need Garrett now I swear I had already punched his face. “You really like her,” Emmet said as he gave me one of his serious looks. Yes, I like Evelyn but not in the way they think. I own her, she's mine, well at least until the contract expires. Still, it was a good thing that they think like that. The more people who think that we are a real couple, the better.“What do you think?” Garrett asked like it was something so obvious and Emmet was so stupid not to recognize it. “He didn’t even want to share, remember?” I could hear the bitterne

    -Eve-I am getting used to the role I am playing. But I can’t deny that there are moments when I still feel overwhelmed.I used to not know Vincent. Then I started to get annoyed by him. Slowly, I am getting the feeling that I am starting to care for him more than I should. Just like how I offered something that I shouldn’t. ‘You can stay at my house,’ I offered because I felt guilty about what had happened between him and his grandmother. “We have an extra room although it might not be up to your standards.”“Oh, Eve, you don’t want to have this guy in your house,” Garrett said interrupting me but at the same time waking me up from my haze.“She’s not asking you,” Vincent snapped. And suddenly every part of me was in panic mode.“Don’t tell me I didn’t warn you,” Garrett added. Vincent sighs heavily. I try to calm myself as I find an excuse or change of topic that would not lead back to me asking Vincent to stay in my house. What the hell was I thinking? I held a smile I had jus

    -Vincent-There was something about Evelyn’s demeanor as I dropped her to class that made me feel uneasy. “Why is Evelyn taking the same class as us but not in the same room?” Garrett asked once I took the seat beside him. I looked around and found him sitting with Emmet, and Tony as Evelyn’s cafe friend and her friend occupied the seats in front of us. If Evelyn’s cafe friend is here, I don’t find any other reason for her not to be here as well. “Tony,” I said as an idea popped into my head. One of her clauses in our contract. The one part I was having a hard time teaching her. Revenge.“On it,” Tony replied as our teacher stepped into the room. “Emmet,” I called as that heavy, sinking feeling inside of me begins to grow. Emmet stood and walked directly towards our teacher who was about to start our class. “She’s here,” Tony replied without mentioning any names. “What’s going on?’ The cafe girl asked worriedly.“Gar—,” I started but he knew what to do even without being asked.

    -Eve-I don’t know how long I was out and what happened before everything turned black. All I know is that this is the softest bed I have ever lain into. I turned to the side trying to find a more comfortable position when I felt something hard in front of me. My forehead creased as I tried to figure out what it was until a sound came out of it. “Finally!” The voice was low and gruff and sounded so familiar. I pulled my hand back under the sheets as I hid it with my entire body. “Evelyn,” he had called my name several times already but this was the first time that he called it with so much care. “Let me see your face,” it sounded like a plea but I could feel the hint of command in those five words. And as much as I hated how he commanded me, I couldn't seem to find it in myself to disobey him.I sighed as I realized that there was no use in hiding. Sooner or later I would still need to get home and the only way for me to do that is to face, Vincent fucking Beckett. “I am fine,” I

    -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

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

    -Eve-I don’t know where we are going. I don’t know what is happening. Because I did not see anything, I didn’t know why they had to wear this black cotton cloth over my head. When he placed it over my head, I almost panicked until he slapped my ass playfully. I am not panicking right now because I can feel him beside me. I can smell him beside me, and I am not sure if it was because of the black bag over my head or if it was because I miss Vincent, but every movement he makes just heightens my anticipation. “Is this cloth really necessary?” I asked. “Yes, little devil,” he replied. The low tone of his voice sent a shiver down my spine. It was sexy, it was hot. I felt my pussy clenched. I felt the car we were in stop, but we didn’t get out of the car yet. Instead, I heard hushed whispers, but I couldn’t make out the words that they were saying. The suspense is killing me. “So, this is the girl that won Vincent Beckett’s heart,” a woman with a thick accent said. Although I am no

    -Vincent-I know that we’re stepping on unknown ground. I know that I am pushing my luck. But that silent whisper at the back of my head wouldn’t stop telling me to take the chance. To take the risk. But my friends are afraid. That’s the reason why they are here now. I understand where they are coming from, and I have already pushed this idea to the back of my mind so many times. So afraid of what the results might be. So afraid that I might lose the only person who made me realize that my heart was actually beating.But I don’t want to hide from her anymore. I want to have Evelyn as a whole. I want to have everything that she could give me. Even those parts of her that she’s afraid for me to see. Which is why I am pushing for this. I want her to see the worst of me and hope that she will be able to accept it. “Okay,” I finally relent, “We will go now, but before we leave, I want you to give me a safe word.”“Fuck!” I heard Garrett say, but I never tore my eyes from the fiery wom
