Ethan’s P.O.V “Get up, sleepy head.” I kicked the bed, and Travis rolled from it falling to the floor, he was all covered in the duvet and he glared at me as soon as he opened his eyes tiredly. “It is morning, how long do you plan to be curled up in bed?” He got up from the floor, peeling himself out of the duvet, and returned it to the bed, he glared at me and I wasn’t so sure why he gave me that look. “Ethan, don’t you think we have to talk?” He snapped at me, he had been grumpy since last night and it was just now I realized that he was mad at me. “What are we talking about?” I asked curiously as I stepped towards the closet and I singled out my bathrobe, I don’t remember doing anything that hurt him. “You’re going to tell me why you have been mad, right?” “Tell me, you were the one who paid Valentina’s fee, right?” My heart quickened at his accusations, just now when I thought about it, I remembered Travis likes Valentina too. “And I’m right, you were the one who bought that b

Ethan’s P.O.VThe word “assaulted” resounded in my ears, I couldn’t believe it, I couldn’t believe there would be such a coward who would do something so low. I was unsure of how to feel, I didn’t even want to imagine how Valentina would feel if she when she wakes up.But her health at the moment takes priority, that’s why she had to wake up and tell me the name of the bastard that touched her. She is very pale, she looks thin too, I don’t even want to imagine what she must have gone through the previous evening. I placed my hand on her forehead, she had some warmth in it again I was grateful for that at least, I feared the worst when I found her.If only I knew this would happen, I would have never paid for her trip fee as well, I just wanted her to have some fun as well, I didn’t know some sick bastard was waiting for the opportunity.She stirred in the bed, her eyelids twitching painfully.“Valentina,” I called her in a whisper getting up from the edge of the bed. “Are you alrig

Valentina’s P.O.V“Are you okay?” Ethan asked as he shuffled inside the room with a tray containing some food bowls. “How do you feel now?” I don’t know how I feel about this, but why is Ethan being caring right now? But that wasn’t even the most of my problem, I can’t remember what happened to me that night.And it is so frustrating, I feel Ethan has something to do with this but his attitude towards me proves otherwise, but I’m not so gullible to believe him. He sat down at the edge of the bed, his weight sinking us in.“Why don’t you tell me how you feel for a start?” He pressured me even more and I frowned in response, he handed me the glass of water despite my refusal. “You have to eat even if you don’t want to.”“I want to go home,” I answered stubbornly, and that was when I remembered that I didn’t have a place to return to anymore, and my money was still in the hotel room. “Where are my things?”“I’ll ask Adam to bring them over later.” He said with a small frown on his face

Valentina’s P.O.VLong story short, Ethan ignored all my questions, he got up from behind me and ran away like a little child, I was unsure of what to do since I didn’t have strength in my legs.So I sat there and I hoped he brooded quickly, so he could come back and get me, I waited and waited but the bastard didn’t come, so I thought of helping myself out again, but I was so weak and I knew one wrong move and I was going to fall.Just when I was about to give myself a try, Ethan came back inside the bathroom a towel was hanging around his waist and he was holding another towel in one hand.“You should get out now, or you are going to catch a cold.” He wrapped the towel around me and lifted me out of the ceramic tub effortlessly, I had no intention of struggling. I had concluded to let him help me, I had been studying since I woke up here and I had been weary of him but I soon realized that he didn’t have any bad intentions and he was a gentleman.He dropped me on the bed like I was

Valentina’s P.O.VI think I’ve roughly spent two days in Ethan’s house, and for those two days he has been nothing but generous to me, taking care of me like the sister he never had.The only concern I had was, that he didn’t let me have my phone or my belongings, it was as though he was keeping me from reaching everyone else.I didn’t mind though, but I wanted to at least let Melissa know that I was alright. “Isn’t it a problem if you don’t go to school?” I found myself asking Ethan who was only focused on peeling the apples in his hands, I didn’t know he could take care of a person like this. He glanced at me and then smiled, before shrugging his shoulders and continuing to peel the apples.“I don’t care what happens to that.” He muttered, something about his voice got me worried. “School sucks anyways.”“Wouldn’t your father be worried about you?” I asked again and he paused for a while, he stopped peeling the apple and for a split second, he glared at me.“He is with his new wife,
