บททั้งหมดของ A Stripper's Nightmare: บทที่ 71 - บทที่ 80

Danielle's POVToday makes it a week, since I was discharged from the hospital. I was sitting with my legs crossed, on a sofa in Brandon's living room. A nice, warm cup of hot chocolate was in my hand, courtesy of Anissa.I couldn't really tell if Brandon was avoiding me, or he really had a lot to deal with. Sam also seemed to be coming over more often, which was weird. Maybe Brandon was finally warming up to him?I couldn't deny the fact that I missed him, but then again, I couldn't stop thinking back to what my father said."I bet she doesn't know...does she?"I remembered how Brandon's eyes widened at that question. He actually turned to look at me, and in that moment, I wondered what they could be keeping from me. My father obviously knew what it was, but he didn't say. I think Brandon might have also been avoiding me because of the possibility of me popping up the question."Heyyy! Wassup Dee!" Sam beamed, as he walked into the living room."Heyyyy" I replied absentmindedly, sub

Danielle's POV"You're fucking the same man who killed your mother. The man who destroyed our family. You fucking whore!"It's been over two months, and my father's words were still very fresh in my memory. After everything he did to me, I couldn't still understand why I care about what he thinks of me."Looks like your boyfriend's here again!" Riley, my colleague at work said to me, batting her eyelashes at an approaching Sam.I turned to raise an eyebrow at her, giving her an "are you serious?" look.I have been working here in a local diner, for a month and a few weeks now, and she wouldn't shut up about Sam and I dating. I knew for a fact that she was into him, but Sam just wasn't looking her way, and she thinks I'm the reason behind it. Ugh! If only she knew."What? Aren't you going to go meet him?" She said, urging me to step out of the counter.Sam finally approached us, smiling and giving her a small, polite wave. I rolled my eyes at the awkward situation between the two of th

Danielle's POV"If you're so mad, why didn't you go over to him and give him a piece of your mind?" Sam questioned, as I fumed in the living room.I stopped my restless pacing for a second, giving him an incredulous look."Are you kidding me? I couldn't have said anything to change an already made transaction!" I complained."... besides, he had his silly bodyguards around him, the whole time." Sam let out a scoff at my words, before going back to scrolling on his phone, and slurping noisily from some stupid cup. I knew what he meant to say, and I didn't appreciate it one bit."What was that?" I snapped, taking angry steps towards where he was seated. I was just so mad and irritable at the moment, turning on him didn't seem like a bad idea."What? I didn't say nothing!" He shrugged nonchalantly, barely even taking his eyes off his phone to look at me.I suddenly charged at him, slapping the phone off his hand and watching it fall to the floor with a clattering sound. Sam obviously wa

Brandon's POVThe sound of rattling chains and someone hammering a piece of metal, suddenly made my eyes flutter open.I squinted my eyes to get a proper view of my poorly lit surrounding, which also had a horrible stench. I realized that my legs were tied up, and I was hanging upside down from the ceiling. I let out a frustrated groan.This seemed to be in an old, abandoned building. However, the presence of a rocking chair on a rug, near a fireplace, was an indication that there were indeed occupants. I mean, the faceless bastards who ambushed me.I lifted up my head to look at knot around my ankle. For some reason, these people decided to use ordinary ropes, rather than chains. I reached for the pocket knife I had stashed away in my pants.Since I was in a really uncomfortable, upside down position, it was quite difficult for me to reach the knots, and I was also a few metres away from hitting the floor. However, I shoved the discomfort aside, sawing at the ropes, till they loosene

Brandon's POV"You're her bestfriend. She's been staying at your place for months." I spat in contempt at the male before me."Do you really expect me to believe that you don't know where she is?" I asked, leaning forward to look at Sam in the eyes.He slowly looked away from me, frowning and shaking his head."I really don't. I just came back to meet her absence, I swear." He said, making me pinch the bridge of my nose in frustration.I had been interrogating him for about 45 minutes, invited him over to my place, as soon as I came back from Ohio.Initially, I thought Danielle must have gone to stay with her aunt, so I went there to confirm, only to find out that I was wrong. Where the fuck could she be?"So, she didn't mention where she would be going?" I asked Sam again.I had a feeling that he sincerely didn't know, for some reason. I had my men go through his call logs."She did always say something about saving for an apartment of her own. Dee was never really comfortable stayi
