元カノとSNSスキャンダル

CASSIE

[.... because the money you gave me wasn't enough, you will take care of it.] This call was unilaterally disconnected by father on the other side.

To be honest, I still had no idea what he was talking about and was about to call him back. But suddenly when I had just put the stethoscope on my desk and was about to sit down, three men wearing masks burst into my office. 

One of them was carrying a rope and their eyes were all over me. 

I do not know who they are, but they are definitely not here for good intentions. So I slowly pulled out my desk drawer and took out a scalpel, gripping it tightly. Meanwhile, my other hand crept up to reach for the handle of the phone to call for help from hospital security.

“Who are you? What are you doing in my office?”

They didn't answer but they walked closer to me which made me walk backwards. Unfortunately I was trapped, there was no way out as I was on the 16th floor of the Pack Arcanum hospital building. 

“We are Madam Elie's people. You have been sold by your father to Madam Elie. Your only choice is to follow us to the Pack Nexus nicely or we will force you.”

What? Sold? Wait, I still don't understand. 

Dad said his debt was paid off and he called me earlier because he needed more money to pay for his rental. The money I gave him was still not enough but I didn't expect at all that the words 'take care of it' meant to be sold. 

This is so wrong! He can't do this to me even if he's my father because it's so unfair.

I bit my inner lip and my hand quickly pressed the security emergency button on the telephone. But quickly one of them threw it against the wall until it shattered. 

“Don't try to seek help, you won't be able to escape from us.” One man walked towards me and I pressed myself against the window. 

I looked back as my trembling hands dialed the police number. If I jumped from here, then I would die because I was on the 16th floor. 

The man grabbed my phone and punched the glass behind me until it shattered and then pushed my body backwards. 

I closed my eyes, thinking I was going to fall to my death, but the man held both my shoulders so that now half my body was hanging, partly inside the room and partly hanging from the window. I could even feel the marks of the broken glass on my back. 

Now what was I supposed to do? I couldn't run away. But I really don't want to be sold because I'm not property!

One of the two men at the door laughed. “Your father owes too much money and he doesn't have the money to pay it. So he put you up as collateral. From now on you'll be a prostitute at Madam Elie's nightclub.”

No way, I'm not going to do that! I'm not going to be a prostitute, I'm going to stay at Pack Arcanum as a doctor. 

I tried to push away the man holding my body, but he was much stronger than me. He bent my arms, then another man tied my hands. They forcibly carried me through the emergency staircase. 

Just as I was about to scream, my mouth was taped so tightly that I had to swallow my voice again. 

But I wasn't going to give up on escaping, I still tried to fight back by kicking them and banging my head on the head of the man carrying me, but his head was like iron, which made my head spin.

“What kind of werewolf doesn't have a wolf inside of them?” This man carrying me laughed mockingly at me. 

Even if I didn't have a wolf, they couldn't do this to me! 

Just because I'm different, doesn't mean I deserve to be treated like this. I'm still the child of a werewolf after all, I still have the blood of a werewolf despite not having that wolf in my body. 

And what I still don't want to believe is why that man, who calls himself my father, would sell me to a pimp. Even though all this time I had also helped him pay off his debts. I worked day and night, putting aside my exhaustion and sometimes even sleeping in the hospital, just to pay off his debts. And now this is what he's giving me?

Why does this have to happen to me? Why should I have a father like that?

The masked men threw me into the car. My hand hit the car door and it was bleeding.

“Be careful! She's a valuable asset. If she gets hurt, especially her face, then Madam Elie will destroy you!”

The car door closed hard before I could get up to escape.

I don't want to be taken anywhere, because Pack Arcanum is my home. Even though the life I live here is hard, but here I can feel safe. Whereas in Pack Nexus or whatever Pack it is, I don't know anything about what's there and what I have to face in the future.

So I still tried to put up a fight and was about to jump, but they pulled me up and wrapped my head in black cloth. They also held me so tightly that I couldn't move. 

I didn't want to be a prostitute. I didn't want the words of the people who bullied me to become a reality that I was actually the daughter of a prostitute. I do not wish to be one!

I cried silently, fighting back was useless, they would be even harsher to me. 

Why does my fate have to be like this? I just wanted to get out of my miserable life and almost succeeded when I was able to become a doctor. I had just settled down and felt free when father told me the debt was paid off one week ago. But what is this? It turns out he lied, he fooled me because he knew I loved him so much because he was the only family I had.

Father, where is your heart that you have the heart to sold your daughter to make up for your debt? I'm the only child you have, why are you giving me such a bitter payback?

He not only made me treated harshly like this but also made me humiliated for being used as a ransom for debt. 

I tried to hold back my tears by biting my lips and also clenching my fists tightly. I could even feel my nails digging into my palms and they were probably bleeding by now. 

The sound of a phone ringing and then this conversation from the man beside me made fear invade me even more, “well madam, we will make sure her face is not injured at all to serve tonight's client.”

No, I don't want to serve any man! I don't want to sleep with a man I don't love.

So I elbowed the man next to me and pushed the car door with my body. 

My body rolled onto the road because the car was still moving when I forced my way out. My body felt crushed, I felt pain all over. 

With the strength I still had, I tried to stand up and run. No matter what happens, I don't want to be used as a debt redemption or even a prostitute.
