Lilith POV I blink my eyes multiple times due to how surprised and confused I was when Don Thierry held my body so close to his; if not for the cozy atmosphere, I would have been choked to death by his actions."I'm fine, sir; it's just a little fall." I informed immediately when I heard his chest rising and falling faster."Is he scared or worried for me? Why?" This question kept popping in and out of my head.He released me, and he turned serious. "I know, but be careful; you haven't worked the money we used to purchase you, so don't think of dying." He stated.Immediately after I heard those words from him, I felt my heart and hopes shred into pieces. "I guess I was expecting too much from him; what was I even thinking? That a person like him could ever care for me? Oh Lilith.""Am I communicating?" He barked, and I shrieked in fear before responding,"Yes, sir!""Good!"

Lilith POV"I will slice off your throat and feed it to the vultures!" I replied in my head, fuming in anger for putting me in a sad mood earlier."Miss Lilith?" The man called at me, and I jerked up from my thoughts."I'm so sorry. I will first appreciate my supporters for their support; I will distribute the prizes I won to the less fortunate; and lastly, I will serve the people with my whole heart." I answered with an unsteady voice because I have lost the confidence I once had."Alright, Miss Lilith, thank you for your time. We would go through your answers while you wait in the hall for the results, please." The middle-aged man announced, and I smiled sadly at them before standing up from my seat."Damn!"

Lilith's POVI felt my body struck by several shockwaves at the turn of events."Have you gone insane?" Let go of me right now!" I yelled, still feeling confused about what was happening."Why? Lie that you don't want me? I saw the feelings you have for me in those eyes of yours, so admit it, you want me, right?" He blunted out to me."Jeez! Fine, you caught me, but you belong to somebody else, which is my friend. Now let go." I begged."No, I want you, not her!" He declared, barking back at me before pressing his lips against mine, that the kiss was rough, intense, but soothing, and I felt really drunk by it."Goodness, Lilith, you can't betray Flora," I spoke in my head, and the next thing I knew, I felt his fingers sip into the open part of my gown at the side of my breasts before finding their way to my nipple.He pitched me hard while his other hand was roaming on the rim of my pants. I felt my body heat up in a second, and his chamomile scent made matters worse as it completely

Author POVThe moment Lilith realized two members of their team had been eliminated from the competition, she felt really down.The only person that she called a friend has been removed, leaving her with only Kilian and Jahi.With a tingling pain in her heart, she walked back to her room in order to go and take a rest.Flora wasn't able to say her goodbyes to Lilith because when you are eliminated from the contest, you must leave immediately.Flora and Precioux could be seen carrying their travel trunk with a sad smile as they exited the building and entered the vehicle that would take them back home.Flora wasn't actually sad because she failed in the contest; rather, she was sad because she wouldn't be able to spend more time with her new-found lover.

Lilith began to feel her pluses rushing through her body as her tense body went highwire."I have to do something!" She sang the message in her head before rushing over and picking balloons again, bursting and extracting letters, but unfortunately no one matched the letters that were taken from her."Ding!" The sound of the timer escalates in the atmosphere, freezing the contestants in place as they have come to the end of the task.Although before the beep sound was heard, Lilith dived towards a particular balloon while praying inwardly for it to have the last letter she was looking for since she was lucky to have gained two of the letters earlier."Alright ladies, please place your dice letters on the table." The middle-aged judge instructed, and the contestants began to range their dice letters on the large table before them in an attempt to form the said words.Killian smiled proudly as she succeeded in swindling people's letters, which helped her complete hers."I guess shortcuts
