Chapter 3 - dressing room

Chloe's POV

It was awkward this morning. Really awkward that I jumped at Shawn when he came to pick me out on a date. 

I wanted to be around him for much longer, but I couldn't look him in the eye when we shared breakfast. 

"I'm really surprised you wanted to come with me, why don't we go get you some sexy lingerie for your pre birthday gift, uhn?" Shawn's words broke into my thoughts but I was still too distracted to give him a reply, so I let him lead the way without an idea of where we were headed, until he asked me to try some underwear he had picked out for me.

"I'm sorry sir, but we don't test under wears,"

"Just shut the hell up, they are just under wears aren't they? I left my black card at the counter, I'd pay for everything she wears, so get the fuck out of here!" He shouted and I shook. 

"I'm sorry sir," the attendant apologized as she bowed. 

"You go wear it, I want to see it," he literally commanded and I had no choice but to obey, I didn't want to make it any more difficult for the helpless attendant. 

"Okay," I entered into the dressing room and was grateful to be away from him again. I breathed a sigh of relief and looked myself in the mirror while trying to force the memory of last night out of my mind as I pulled the sweatshirt off my head. 

Until I suddenly felt someone wrapping their hand around my waist. I bolted in repulsion because those hands were slender and not manly enough. 

"Shawn, leave me alone," I tried to put on my sweatshirt but he put it back down and flung it to the other side of the dressing room.

"Why? Just six days to your birthday, why are you being so conservative. You are mine, don't you get it?!" He sounded pissed and I knew how violent he could get so I tried to pacify him. 

"I know please just wait till then, don't you think it would be more special if I gave it as a gift rather than this? Plus we are in a public place," I tried to maintain eyecontact through the mirror but his mouth was on my neck and his hands were moving violently. 

"Stolen wine is sweeter darling and I have a public fettish but this bitches at the club couldn't satisfy me, I only want you!" He said as he yanked my jeans down and I felt his briefs on me from behind. 

That was when I knew that I couldn't stop him.

"Help! Somebody help!-" he was being forceful and every movement he made made me want to throw up. 

"Shut up, you bitch!" He spat as his palm came up to cover my mouth as he fully bend me over the table. 

My attempt at biting his hand was futile and with my face pressed hardly on the side while he struggled with my panties, there was only my cell phone in my line of sight. I reached out for it and pressed my speeddial before he slapped the phone away. 

All hope was lost and I could only rely on myself which was also pointless as he was stronger than I was, being a member of the basketball team. I could only plead and beg him while he kissed and took advantage of my body. 

"Now that foreplay is over I will now take possession of what is mine," I heard him say as he spanked me with his erection. 

He poked me twice with it and was about to force his way. 

"You bastard, how dare you?" Jayden's voice was full of rage and anger as he flung Shawn to the other side of the room and continuously hit him.   

Shawn's painful groans was all I could hear as I tried to free my tied hands. 

I fell to the side and struggled to put on my dress before rushing up to pull Jayden away. Both were stronger then me, but Shawn's strength still couldn't hold a candle to my military step brother. 

Jayden's POV

As soon as he came to pick her for the date, I excused myself as well and decided to tail them. 

It was enough that she was giving me cold shoulders after what happened the night before, but I couldn't bear for her to be taken away from me when I hadn't gotten the chance to tell her my true feelings yet. 

I followed behind them secretly as I watched her lean into him every time he held her waist and I gritted my teeth to contain my anger until I couldn't anymore. 

It was the lingerie store, but I didn't hesitate to tail them there. I could do a lot better as I hated that she as choosing him over me and I finally let hell lose when I heard the noise from the phone call. 

It might have been a mistake, I thought when she called and didn't say anything, but her protest and the nasty words I heard made me go in. 

I couldn't stand it when I saw the bastard taking advantage of her. I couldn't stand the helpless tears that she she'd while waiting for someone to save her. 

"Can you please not tell mom and dad about this?" She said weakly from where she was seated beside me and I gazed at her before focusing my attention back on the road.

It was painful to watch the woman I loved be covered with bruises and all I could do was beat the bastard until he fainted. 

I wanted to cause him more pain, but she had held me back. 

"Jayden please say something, it would be a lot more troublesome if they found out." Her eyes were glassy and she was looking to me for an answer, so I swallowed my anger and tried to reason with her. 

"I will take care of it if any trouble happenned," I said, but she held unto my sleeves, shaking her head instead. 

"I know you care about me and that's why you followed us and I will not be angry that you tried to kiss me yesterday too, just please, this one time. Or at least until next week."

"You're pulling this card now?" I wanted to express my hurt but I couldn't because it wasn't in my place. 

"I'm sorry but I promise I wouldn't be in your favour after my birthday."

"How sure are you that this bastard wouldn't try anything after your birthday?" I asked as I drove inside the parking lot of our parents house. 

"Because after then, I'll let him,"

"What?!"

"It won't be forced anymore. I'm engaged to marry him anyways. It's just my fate," she said and got out of the car with an answer I wished I didn't hear, because now, I was more troubled than when I was in active service. 

I needed to find a way within these six days.
