Chapter 7

ROSETTES POV:

After the White family left, my dad offered to drive Libelle back to her campus as he was going that way for business. As I said, dad wasn't home most of the time.

I was more than eased and pushed her willingly to go back as to not miss her morning classes.

With that, I was quite relieved and decided to take a shower. I came out wearing nothing more than a towel I headed straight for my closet, when I noticed that my door was ajar, I went and closed it when my closet door swung itself open. I wanted to scream but I froze. With the yell trapped in my throat. I saw someone walk out of the closet.

Eric!

He walked slowly to my side and whispered in my ear, "Didn't you look like a beautiful toy tonight?" sending shivers down my spine. No, No... This couldn't be happening again.

My body must have started shaking because he gripped me by the shoulders and whispered, "oh no..shhh shush .." raising my chin up he said, "don't worry, I will be gentle little sister.. you know why I never let you get out of here? Huh? Because you are mine to fuck. And I'll show you what it is to even glance at a man other than me."

"I didn't look at any man," I said in a timid voice. Tears were already streaming down my eyes. "I really didn't."

"Oh really? Then what about the rich man today at the dinner? Weren't his eyes scanning you and your eyes meeting his every minute." He said in a low whisper as his hand fisted slowly in my hair.

"I didn't mean to-,"

At this moment the door opened up wide, and Amy stepped in, Eric let go of my hair immediately, she looked at me and her son.

Then back to me, "You whore! You have made plans to seduce my son now." She came forward and grabbed my hair. "ah! It's not like it looks, ma'am"

"So you mean to tell me that my son was trying to rape you?" She asked by looking at Eric.

Eric shrugged, "She seduced me, now I'm the rapist.. I'm amazed by her lies," he came closer and said in a low voice " moreover this wasn't the first time, was it?" He smirked at me.

She did see the smirk on his face but still had her doubts, "Don't dare tell me that you are in love with her" she warned Eric.

Eric came forward and picked up a strand of my wet hair and said, "Funny you believe anyone can love her." he smirked, "no one can ever love a pathetic human like her."

Saying this he walked out of the room. Amy gave me a vicious look and left, slamming shut the door behind her.

My body was shaking so wildly that my knees gave in, I was sobbing and shaking and kneeling on the cold floor of my room.

 My breathing was wild one minute and then the next moment I couldn't breathe, my lungs refused to cooperate with my body. I calmed myself down and started counting,

1..2....3..4...5.6...7...8...9..10 my breathing evened out a bit but my legs won't move, I couldn't stand up. I sobbed my eyes out. I couldn't blame anyone, I couldn't blame myself, but somehow I knew it was all my fault, it was my fault that I was so timid that I couldn't fight back, I couldn't raise my voice, it was my fault that I was so broken that nothing could ever fix me...

Eric was right, I was a pathetic human. Did pathetic humans like me even deserve love?
