SCARLETT
I slowly pick up the gun, pointing it at his forehead with my hands trembling. Hate, anger, frustration, all compounding and marauding my thoughts. The memories of everything he did to me, cheating on me with Ashley and humiliating me time and time again for her sake, conniving with her to use me to frame my father and send him to prison, an act that plunged my life into hell and then the verbal, emotional and physical abuse that followed.
He doesn’t deserve my forgiveness, I don’t want to feel pity for him, even with the tears streaming down his eyes or with how genuine his words sound. This is Trevor, it could all still be an act to do something more evil but if he hadn’t been wicked and done those things to me, I never would have met my hero, my rock and my shield, my resting place.

SCARLETT“Mommy huwwy, Bad wolf will catch us,” My two year old daughter, Carmela, drags my hand, giggling as we run into my room, looking for where to hide from the big bad wolf with red scarves tied on our backs.“Roar….I’ll get you,” Damian’s voice comes from under the stairs as his footsteps make heavy thudding noises.This is Carmela’s favourite game and Damian loves nothing more than to make her happy. If there is anyone that can compete with his love for me, it is the love he has for our kids.“They went into mom’s room dad,” Jayden, my annoying and beautiful five year old son yells at the top of his voice from their room which adjoins mine.“Jayden talk too much, now daddy will catch us,” Carmela makes an annoyed face.I smile at her, wondering why she took all of her dad’s features and barely any of mine, the black hair, deep black eyes, full and plump lips, his slightly wide nose and even at just two, the glare she has on her face is so similar to his icy one.“Quick, let’s
SCARLETT I would never forgive a cheater. If you asked me two months ago, that would be my answer.Trevor has been my boyfriend for three years, the only man I’ve ever dated, but two months ago, he slept with my one, true, worst enemy and he claimed to be drunk and begged for my forgiveness.I was hurt, broken and devastated. I never thought I could ever forgive such a thing in my life. It’s the bottom line of a relationship, I know. If cheating is not the ultimate red flag, I don’t know what is.But the moment came and I couldn’t do it. My life will not be the same without him. He has been the centre of my life since forever, and I gave him my everything.So there, I made the worst decision in my life, I forced myself to nod when he begged. You can hardly pinpoint the moment where things went wrong in your life, but that was it for me. That moment was the exact point where my life fell apart.I stare blankly at the text I had just received from him, asking me to join him at his fa
SCARLETT“You asked for me,” With a cautious tone, I stick my head into Evelyn’s office, the manager of Milton Cafe. A few months ago I wouldn’t even look to this kind of low level cafe for my taste, and now I’m so grateful to even have a job in it.“Yeah,” She replies, not raising her head up from her laptop. “Scott called in sick, you’ll have to fill in for him tonight.”“What? No, I can’t,” I reply sharply, only to realize that counts as “talking back” under Evelyn’s stern glare.I’m learning to drop the “princess way” already, just not fast enough.Tomorrow is Thursday, the only day of the week I get to visit dad in prison. I prepared his favourite meal, and the thought of his happy face when he sees that is what’s been carrying me through my life nowadays.Pulling a night shift would make that impossible and I still have my final year thesis to work on. I am way behind on the school stuff and I need to catch up ASAP.Evelyn closes her laptop slowly, pushing down her glasses to gla
SCARLETTTrevor cocoons his arms around her, delicately observing her dress where the coffee had spilled. My heart feels uneasy at the way he looks at her. He knows me better than anyone. He should know I’m not one to start trouble and definitely not at my place of work. Even after the incident, I didn’t go after Ashley to create any trouble for her, she apologized on her own accord, even though I knew it wasn’t genuine.So why would he believe I spilled coffee on her just cause they’re having brunch?Trevor shifts his gaze to me and my heart sinks. I cannot believe it. The warm and soft glint his eyes had a second ago when he was looking at Ashley is gone, replaced by a cold and hard stare.“Apologize to her now,” He orders, raising his voice slightly, “it’s one thing to throw a tantrum with me, but you are above bullying my friend, Scar.”What? He’s not even going to ask for my own version of the story? He’s just going to believe her?“I’m not apologizing to her because that’s not
TREVORI slam deep into Ashley as she scratches my back, emptying my balls and I twitch repeatedly, going limp, before I roll off her.“That was awesome,” She says softly, adjusting herself and placing her head on my chest while she draws imaginary circles around my nipple.“Yeah,” I reply bluntly. Sex with Ashley is nothing compared to the kisses I get from Scarlett. Scarlett’s innocence is the most seductive thing about her and very soon, I will have her choking on my nuts.The thought alone makes me twitch. But Ash won’t allow me to have her. I didn’t think it would be a big deal, but now I regret stupidly following Ash’s order. I told Scar I wanted to wait for marriage, the worst is, she is into that idea too much. I have been trying to talk Scar into it for months now, but the thing is, you can’t really force Scarly to do anything she doesn’t want to do.“You’re thinking about her, aren’t you?” Ashley’s voice barraged into my thoughts.“Can you even hear yourself?” I counter. “
TREVORI lied. Her wish isn’t my fucking command. Ashley is totally messing up my plan and I’m so tired of the girl’s stupid jealousy games.Halie’s were doing this open mic thing, sort of like a competition for talents and the crowd decides the winners. I guess Scarlett is competing or something and one of the organizers, Ashley’s pal, found out and told her.If there’s one thing I dislike about Scarlett, it’s the fact that she is too stubborn and determined as fuck. After Ashley got her fired, which I still think is a dick move by the way, I offered to give her five hundred dollars allowance a month so she didn’t have to work, but in typical Scarlett fashion, she turned it down. Said she doesn’t want to depend on anyone but herself for her livelihood, but I just wish she wouldn’t be so stubborn so I can take care of her needs. Everything would be so easy if she can play the doll she is. Right now, I’m sitting at the far left corner of Haile’s public bar where the contest will b
SCARLETTI’m tired. I can’t keep doing this. I can’t keep doing this with Ashley. I thought she was just jealous of me but now it looks like she has a personal vendetta against me.My eyes flit to the crowd and there’s only one thing clear in the air, mockery. They don’t care about me, but why should they, and why should I care? I don’t need their pity.I yank my wig from Ashley and run down the stage, heading straight for the exit, but Ashley comes after me, screaming at the top of her voice.“I’m not done bitch! You better wait up.”I don’t stop, I don’t wait. I don’t have it in me anymore. Maybe it’s time I realize I’m no longer Scarlett Madden, I’m just Scarlett nobody. No matter how many times I stand up to her or try to put her in her place, she’s just going to keep coming for me and Trevor is always going to take her side and give another excuse for her and I’ll be forced to swallow it.Without thinking, I jump into the back seat of the first car that I see. The element of ri
SCARLETT“You taste so great baby,” Trevor groans, before sucking on my tongue again. I ruffle his hair, grabbing his head and I kiss him back with equal passion.Both our clothes are gone now, I’m clad in just my bra and panties and Trevor is in his boxers only.He runs his fingers along my chest, squeezing my bosoms and I moan in response. It wasn’t the first time we had gotten to this level. I was just always scared to let him get to third base but now, I want him badly.His hands find their way lower and he presses a finger into my peach from my panties, a bolt of pleasure shoots through me at that act and I moan loudly, arching my back a bit.“You’re soaking wet for me baby,” Trevor says huskily, showing me the dampness on his fingers.I blush hard when he puts it in his mouth and groans.“Your taste is heavenly Scarly, I could get used to this.”“Do it again. I like how it feels,” I encourage him with a sheepish smile on my lips.I really liked it. It felt so good. I can’t belie
