When the two female arrive with the many dresses for me to try, I make sure to pick the most unflattering dress that has a long split in the side, puffy sleeves and a fluffy skirting. I also pick out an ugly pair of shoes. "Are you sure this is what you want?" The woman asks. "Of course, this is my dream dress." I smirk. She exchanges a look with her much younger assistant. Why are they even so concern? If they know that this dress is so ugly, then why bring it in the first place? "Do you know how the backyard will be decorated? I hope that it will be at sunset. It will be just so romantic." I fake excitement. "No, we only came here with the dresses." "Ok." "We will make some adjustments to the dress so it will fit you better on your big day." The woman said, seeming unsure. "Oh, before I forget. Can I get a lift into town? I have a hair appointment, also have to get my nails done. I hope it's not too much to ask for. I don't want to bother the security so much since they hav
Before the sun even comes up, someone is shaking me awake and yelling at me to get up.I open my eyes to see that it is Leo's sister."What do you want?"She glares down at me before speaking. "My brother said to wake you, it is soon time for your wedding."I suck my teeth at her."I'm not going anywhere, I refuse to marry that man," I say, but of course it is all a show to act as if I am not interested when really I know that I will get half of all that he has.I might even take his company, and my father can finally live his dream. More like I'll live it for him."Fine, I'll go get him. Maybe he can motivate you to get your lazy ass up.""I'm far from lazy.""Really? Because my brother told me what you did the day I vivisted.""I wasn't going to clean up the mess that you purposefully made.""What kind of woman are you, then? Did you think you were going to come here and live freely?" She laughs.But they are cut short when Leo walks into the room."What's going on here?""She refus
"Aren't you going to walk me down the aisle?" I ask."For what? I don't like you."I huff. "Whatever. You need to get over the fact that Natasha isn't here anymore.""Yes, you are her replacement but you will be treated much worst. I'm not even sorry for you. I can tell from that attitude of yours you have no friends.""Who need friends? They were all jealous of me.""I'm sure they were." She walks away after her words.I frown after her, then begin to walk to the distance for the little room, out to the garden.The place it hot and there are bugs everywhere.My eyes wonder all around. I am disappointed by what I see. Here I am thinking that the backyard is well decorated and that there will be people, but instead it is just the altar where Leo stand has a long red cloth beneath his feet. And the only persons around are two of his bodyguards and the pastor who seem to have other places to be.This is not how I picture my wedding day, then again, this isn't how I picture anything.When
The only reason for me to know how long I have been in this basement for is because of the woman who comes to give me food. And for the three square meals a day, I can tell that I have been here for a week now.I keep asking her questions, but she never responds. Just put the food down and leaves.On the eighth day, I lay on the small bed and cry. I have no one to blame but myself. I put myself in this position all because of money. Now I'm being mistreated by the man I stole.I turn to face the wall, which had lines to show that I was not the only one to be locked down here, counting the passing day.I wonder if those other women knew what they were getting themselves into."Did Natasha know?" I ask out loud.If only I hadn't been so envious, I wouldn't be here. And maybe if I hadn't been a bitch, someone would have been worried about me already.All those women are right. I am a selfish person. All I am after is money, but look where that gets me. Abused and locked up.I should have
I stop counting how long I have been down there, I'm pretty sure that it is close to a month. But even with that, no one has come to see if I am dead or alive, I guess Leo really doesn't care about me. And if I don't know any better, I would say that someone else must have grab his attention. "How do I get out of here?" I ask myself. I am slowly losing hope of escaping, because there is no way out. I tried picking the locks on the small dusty windows, the lock on the door is on the outside so I couldn't try that and even when I tried digging out the blocks in the wall, the knife break. "Fuck!" I yell, my voice echoing around the room. Just then, the door opens up, revealing Leo who stands at the top of the stairs. He takes his time to walk down, before stopping before me. "Look at you, your hair has become dull and your face is ugly. You are also getting fat; I don't like your appearance at all. It is disgusting and repulsive." He criticizes. I frown. "How can you say such a th
When Crissy is done with my hair, I get up from my seat to leave, but she chases after me."Mrs Cross!" She calls after me.I turn around, thinking that she is going to tell me that I have to pay, but instead she stops me and gives me a large bag."Sorry to rush after you like that, but your husband purchased these for you when he made the appointment."I peek in the bag to see that they are hair care products. Shampoo, conditioner, hair serums and more."Oh, thank you.""Also, he said that we should call him so you know when you are all done with here.""No, that is fine, Chrissy. I know my way around town, so I'll just hurry to my next appointment before it is too late."She looks skeptical, but eventually nods. Leaving to wonder if she knows how Leo is.As I walk out and hurry across the street, I bump into Adele, causing me to drop my bag and a few of the contents to fall out."I am so sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going," she apologises, not realising that it is me."It's f
When we get home, Leo is still acting out of character and I am expecting him to hit me at any moment. But he doesn't, I glance at him to see him staring at me."There will be a party here soon. I have a dress on my bed for you to wear and please don't embarrass me when my guests arrive." He tells me.I nod, then make my way up the stairs to shower and get ready.Whilst in my underwear, I stare down at the short, sparkly, red dress that has a long split in the side. Wondering if he really wants me to wear something like this, because he always tells me that he doesn't want any other man to stare at me. So is this a setup?Before I can get the dress on, the bedroom door slams shut. I gasp because I never notice Leo coming into the room, but there he is, standing behind me.Suddenly, he rips my underwear off before forcing me onto the bed. When I struggle, he slaps me on the ass."Remember when this was nothing but a fun adventure for us? What changed Angela? You enjoyed it so much." He
After Leo leaves me again, I walk around to find Karen, intending to get her to seduce Leo. I am willing to tell her everything that he likes and what to do to impress him.Finally I find her, standing with a few other females. All of them seem to have the same face as she does, with big asses and big breasts.I frown, because in honesty, that is not what Leo wants. Even though he likes a woman with red hair and pouty lips, he still likes them to look somewhat natural.As I walk closer to them, I see one of the female gesturing in my direction. Just like with Brie and the others that night at the celebratory party.When I go to stand directly in the centre of the group, Karen frowns at me."And what do you want, Mrs Cross?" Her words spits venom."If you want my husband, then go for it. If you think that you are better than me, why not take him? Or maybe you know that he will never go for you?"Karen laughs, and I cut her off by mocking her exaggerated laugh."You made your body like
