Chapter 21

Beggar

My palms get sweaty, I think fuck it.

They are either going to accept me or not.

This is who I am, this is me.

Taking one last breath, I look straight into Killers eyes and say

“Beggar.”

I say it loud enough that they can all hear me.

Killer is quiet and my confidence increases knowing that I managed to shut the devil up.

“Fuck, I didn't see that one coming,” He cringes and my lip tugs.

“You sure.” I turn my head to Storm’s question.

“Yeah, Beggar,” I say, my tone firm.

Storm’s lips thin showing his displeasure but he doesn't say anything else and I'm glad. He proceeds to lift my plate up and starts dishing me steak and sausage. My mouth salivates as my vision feasts on the yummy meat I'm about to eat.

“Choose something else.” I miss the low voice, but my eyes immediately shoot to the owner, Zero, who won't look at me but his grip around the fork and hard line of his lips inform me that it's a good thing he doesn't.

“No.” I give him his word back.
