Madison said nothing but walked toward her room, Alessa following behind her. Once they were inside, she turned on Alessa. “How long?” Madison simply asked.“Since John’s birthday.” Alessa honestly answered.“So when he was supposed to be finding a bride to marry, he was wasting his time with you?” Madison’s anger finally cracked. “Well, he is getting married now. You saw that kiss. He is serious about it. I am just a—” Alessa swallowed hard, just realizing her real role in Kyle’s life. “I am just a distraction.”“You know there are some articles with videos of him holding your hand and one of the workers said Kyle was there to buy you something.” Madison went back to being calm. “But he didn't. He ended up following through. Kissed her and bought her a dress. She is the one he is throwing a gala for and is going to marry.” Alessa explained. “He's been telling John he isn't sure if Aspsn is the right fit. Today after Aspen's behavior, John agrees. Which might mean, Kyle won't go t

There was only one night left before the gala and Alessa was determined to spend it at the penthouse, but her plans were mangled by an unknown number’s text.“Please meet Mr.Jason Merlin at Cafe Julu at noon today.” What had Madison done? So when lunch rolled around, Alessa, who worked out of the penthouse today, against her better judgment, went to Cafe Julu, where she not only found Jason sitting at their table but Madison as well.“What are you doing here?” Alessa barked at Madison. “He is not safe to be alone with!”“We are at a restaurant full of people, it will be fine.” Madison rolled her eyes. “I am all caught up on everything that went down with you two by the way. Seems like you were keeping more than one secret from me.” Madison snipped in a whisper.Alessa said nothing but took the seat furthest from Jason, just like Kyle taught her.“There is a bar some of my girls work at. I can set her up there. It’s one of my—on books establishments so no funny business there.” Jason

The first three months at the bar went by quickly. Alessa learned from Martha, the owner, the basics of being a bartender. It didn’t seem like rocket science—at least at this bar where she was mainly pouring cheap beer or cheap whiskey. Then she got busy moving into the apartment. James thankfully used visiting his mother as an excuse and came down to help Alessa move her things in. Alessa's room was slightly bigger than her servant's room at the mansion, but it still felt foreign. It could just be because she hadn’t been able to sleep more than two or three hours a night since she got here. After all, nighttime was the only time she couldn’t keep her mind busy. During the day, she was running and moving. Working from six in the morning to ten at night. Then, taking Madison's advice she enrolled in an online school for hospitality. All of this chewed up her day, but at night, while she lay in bed, she had no choice but to relive the horrible thing she had done. No choice but to wonde

“Are you refusing?” Kyle asked.Alessa took a deep breath. Her words stuck in her throat due to confusion. She wouldn’t have ever expected Kyle to ever give in to Jason. “Why, that’s all I am asking. I thought you hated me. Why would you pay for me? Go to someone else.” Alessa demanded.“He doesn’t have anyone else but you, apparently. Should I call and ask? James talked to him last time.” “James? You made him do your dirty work?” Then she whispered to herself, “And he actually did it? Damn it, James.” “Those clothes,” he pointed at the box in her hand, “on now!” Then he moved out of the way so Alessa had a clear path to the bathroom.“Kyle!” “Let me call your pimp.” Kyle flipped his phone out into his hand. Alessa placed her hand on it. “This shouldn’t be new to you, right? Since you're his only girl, you must be used to this?”How can Alessa tell him that she had never looked at anyone else since then, and she had no plan to do so?“You want to do it this way? Ruined everything

Madison had asked Alessa to wear a black dress so as a good maid of honor she followed the instructions. She wore a black flowery halter dress she had and tied her red hair with an equally black bow. Kyle had spent the night in the bar and must have snuck out before Martha started her day because he was nowhere to be seen. Martha, who still believed that Alessa was working as one of Jason’s girls, made several comments about Alessa’s night with Kyle so Alessa assumed he left before Martha even got to the bar.Alessa had the day off today, and it was good because she needed it for what she had planned. She took Martha's car to drive to the airport, which was at least an hour away. This also required her to ignore all of Madison's phone calls. She waited for almost an hour before her complaining guest hopped in her car. “This is what he sent, an almost broken minivan to pick me up?” She moaned as soon as she got inside the car.“This is a secret wedding, remember?” Alessa reminded he
