Audrey's POV I stood in front of the little mirror in the bathroom with mixed feelings in my heart.I was dressed in the same gown I had on when I was brought here, my bouncy and shiny blonde hair looking dry and frizzy. Although there were no eye bags under my eyes I felt utterly exhausted even having just woken up from my little fighting session. I feel miserable and my appearance is giving that off properly. The thought of being married to a stuck- creepy guy has kept me uneasy all afternoon, calling it a fake marriage doesn't even make me feel any better."Miss Audrey" A voice called out snapping me back to the life that has become my reality."I will be down soon" I yelled hoping whoever it was could hear from outside the door."Don Ivan says they can't start till you are down" If J wasn't uncomfortable with eating with them before, I sure am now.I didn't bother giving her a response and she didn't say anything else either. I sighed deeply to myself preparing myself for whatev

Audrey's POV "Let's go to my office" Ivan declared, pushing himself up from where he sat but Dante’s next words stopped him."You want to marry her into the family right? There is no need to go to your office, we can talk here. She is going to be part of us soon anyway" Dante’s eyes were fixed on me once again as if waiting for a reaction from me, his words calm yet threatening. How can a man be so quiet yet scary?The other two men also turned to look at me, their expressions quite different from Dante’s, the man who just walked in had the most horrific look on his face and that was all I needed to know that whatever it was he wanted to say I was going to hate it."This isn't the time to act up" Ivan piped up turning to look at Dante whose eyes remained on me. "I am not acting up, Leonid can talk, I am sure Audrey here doesn't mind right?" He definitely doesn't want an answer.Leonid, it suits him perfectly."Audrey please excuse us" Ivan totally ignored Dante, his voice commanding

Audrey's POV Blank.Empty.Shattered.Guilt.Those were the only things I could feel.It has been three hours since I saw that picture and I can't unsee it. The tears kept falling while I just sat staring at the wall in front of me, the days, weeks, months, and years Mrs.Rachel and I had spent together replayed over and over again in my mind.She was like a missing piece I didn't even know I needed. I always spent weekends and holidays with her and her husband whenever I couldn't make it back home. Mum and Dad loved her so dearly too, they would always ask to speak to her whenever they called...she always told me I made her forget that she didn't get to have a child of her own.We would have little picnics and barbecue together and then I would help her pack up and put her husband to bed before going back to my form. She made me forget how unbearable Katelyn made the dorm feel ...and now she's gone just like that...her husband will not take this news lightly. I need to get to him one

Audrey's POV I could still feel his hot breath on my face meaning he was still so close so why isn't he kissing me yet?I slowly peeled my eyes open, my cheeks tinting pink in pure mortification as I took in the expression that was now on his face—pure mockery and disgust.He chuckled, a dark and unamused one, " Women...always the same. You all will never miss an opportunity to get laid" he snorted, his hands dropping from my face as I burnt him.Did he just insinuate what I think he is insinuating? How could he even think like that? How stupid can I even be, what was I expecting? I couldn't help it as tears welled up in my eyes. I am a virgin, promised myself to remain a virgin till my wedding night and here I was fully ready to let a man I didn't even know touch me all because of hormones...I thought I had trained myself better than this."You'd better eat something, you would need all your energy for what's going to go down tonight" he dismissed taking a step away from my mortifi
