Louisa's POVWhat am I supposed to do? Do I have to make a squeaking sound like a rat? But let's face it, making a squeaking sound doesn't really change me into a rat, does it?!I totally freaked out."Don't be stupid. There's no rat in this house," Lucas mumbled.How could he be so drunk yet still manage to give a woman organism?That was a myth."No, I heard it! It was a rat!" the girl insisted.Shut up, bitch. Enjoy your fucking annal sex and leave me alone! Just do whatever you're supposed to do and walk away!The sound of thrusting ceased.My heart sank.No... Is he going to drag me out of my shelter? Like pulling a rabbit out of a hat?!I covered my mouth, so I didn't scream out. But I didn't think it would make any difference, because my heart was pounding so loud that the whole floor was vibrating.I heard the sound of steps walking away from the sofa. Then, the sound of pouring liquid into a glass.The girl whined, "Lucas, what are you doing? Are you going to take a look at w
Louisa's POVThe faster I spoke, the angrier I became. In the end, I found myself holding his arms with both of my hands.Lucas, looking amused, held my hands in his and said in a calm voice, "If you need money, you can always call me. I thought Leo had already informed you about this.""But I don't need your filthy money!"Lucas carried me up and placed me in front of a mirror.There are mirrors on both sides of the wall. I looked at our infinite reflections and secretly felt happy that he was about to take me to infinity.I'm so deeply attached to this fucking asshole. I looked like a plaster on his arm!"Look at your reflection in the mirror, Louisa." Lucas wrapped his arm around my waist and forced me to stand up. His body was tightly pressed against my back. "That's the person you really are and that's the person you're supposed to be. I know it can be very challenging for you to accept the fact that I haven't been there for you in the past 19 years of your life. But the only thi
Louisa's POVI was standing on the sidewalk, wearing absolutely nothing.This part of the town was quite remote, so no one was around at this time during the day.Occasionally, I could see stray cats running across the road. They stared at me with sympathy, like I was one of them.How I wished I could be a stray cat right now! I didn't mind running on the street and eating garbage for a living. At least they were covered by fur and I didn't even have a single hair on my skin. Plus, if I were a stray cat, I wouldn't need to be bothered by my parents' financial strain. I wouldn't need to look for a job. I wouldn't be bothered by an asshole like Lucas Farrow and his whole fucking pack of gangsters, including my best friends Leah and Jackie.I couldn't believe my own best friends would turn on me for Lucas' sake.They practically abducted me and had my crotch waxed! What kind of best friends did things like that?!However, I couldn't blame them because it seemed Lucas threatened them as w
Louisa's POVBefore I was about to interrogate him, Leo continued, "Louisa, you have to understand that from now on, your business is our business. No matter whether you like it or not. If you need money, you can always give Luke a call...""So he can fuck me like one of his whores?! So I can get paid?! Not every poor girl is a prostitute! Do you know how pathetic and politically incorrect you are?!" I leered at him.I couldn't believe I was having this kind of conversation."Last time I checked, he was trying to offer you a job, not paying you for a fuck.""He asked me to be his personal assistant and required me to stand by 24x7 and do whatever he asked me to do...""Which is a decent job that doesn't involve dressing up in a short tight skirt, cleaning up shit.""Leo! I'm poor, but I'm not stupid! I have dignity!" I wanted to bite his head off.Leo shrugged again and said, "Louisa, trust me, I understand. You saw how Luke treats other women. That's why you're terrified. But please
"Where have you been? Is that makeup on your face? What happened to your hair?" My mom showered me with a string of questions."We've called Jackie's parents, they told us that you weren't working at their grocery store. Where have you been?" My dad looked at me worriedly."I was at a friend's party. It was dreadful, so I came back. Nothing happened. Don't worry about me." I waved my hand and said.Feeling exhausted, I really couldn't afford to face the music.But my mom was clearly determined not to let me get away with this one -"Louisa, what have you been doing recently? You have never lied to us before. We've been calling all this time!"I lowered my head and whispered, "Sorry, mom. I left my phone in my backpack and I left it in Leah's car. I'll get it tomorrow.""Louisa, both your mom and I stayed up late till this hour waiting for you. Don't you think that we deserve the truth, not the excuses?" my dad asked.His voice was reserved and calm as ever, but I could tell that he
Louisa's POVAs if I had a choice. I rolled my eyes secretly in my mind. I wanted to really roll my eyes in front of him, but I couldn't.It was physically impossible. I couldn't take my eyes off him.He looked so darn hot in a pink shirt that smelt like fresh pine trees after a summer rain.I had never seen anyone who could wear the color pink as he did."This is exciting. I've never taken a shuttle bus before." Lucas looked around with excitement.Oh really? Is this bus not big enough for you because you've got a fat ass and a even larger ego? I thought to myself."Why are you staring at me like a little alligator? Are you going to eat me?" His long fingers gently stroke his hair.Ah. How I wished I could do that. I thought to myself and immediately smothered this crazy thought."Not when you're the last man alive!" I mumbled and found my answer rather embarrassing.He wasn't asking me to marry him. What the fuck was I thinking?!I blushed, trying to look away.But again, I failed.
Louisa's POVThis was an outrageous fucking bullshit lie. And he said it right in front of my face like I was a fucking idiot."OK. So, let me paraphrase what you've said. You're telling me that, you, a fucking gazillionaire, who has everything in the world, want to be with a girl like me, a poor girl, who is not pretty nor smart, with nothing but a pathetic life? You want me more than anything in the world and you want to spend the rest of your life with me?""Yes," Lucas said with a giant smile on his face. He looked so genuine and relieved that I was this close to believing his fucking bullshit."Lucas. I'm starving right now and I need to eat. I have the feeling that you won't let go of me and eat something unless I agree to have lunch with you, which is the only reason I'm sitting here instead of jumping out of this window. But if you tell me one more fucking lie, I'll throw myself out of this car. I might roll over the ground or get run over by cars. I don't care. I'd rather bec
Louisa's POV"But... It's still breathing! We should call someone for help!" I struggled and wanted to look back, but Lucas wouldn't let me. I couldn't see anything, because my head was covered by the hood."It's dying and it's suffering. It showed up at the wrong place, wrong time." Lucas' voice was detached.Then, I heard a muffled bash sound, like some heavy object hitting someone's bones.Desperately, I struggled to look back.With a quick and sharp whimper, the wolf closed its eyes and stopped struggling.Paul, the driver, was standing next to the wolf, with a big baseball bat in his hands.Blood was dripping down from the bat."Did he... Did he just kill the wolf?!" I was completely horrified.Lucas pulled me back and lifted me in his arms like a doll, walking off the scene as soon as possible."He... He killed that wolf! Why did he do that?! It was a majestic animal! It was still alive! He killed it!" I kept looking back and struggled in Lucas' arms.Lucas didn't say anything a
