ARIA'S POV; I've always had a thing with laying on the bed and then closing my eyes, fully aware of my surroundings. As best as I could, it was a coping mechanism of shutting myself out from the things I had to face after waking. The smell of disinfectant and drugs hadn't been familiar since the past month when I didn't have to visit my father in the hospital again. I let my eyes remain closed, only letting my ears do the work of figuring out our surroundings and my nose also do a bit of work. Aside the strong smell of disinfectant, there was the scent of Ronald. My stomach flipped just strong fingers I knew belonged to him gently squeezed mine. The last time I had seen him was when he had waved me off to the club and Caroline asking him about an adoption he was yet to tell her. Curious as to what he was going to say while I pretended to be asleep, I laid unmoving, letting his hand squeeze mine in reassurance while trying not to react to the spark between us. There
Ronald's POV; "Where are you going tonight? You promised to stay with me!" As I picked up my keys, trying to be as calm as possible, Caroline held my check, coming to stand in front of me. She stood in nothing but a lingerie that barely covered the parts of her body. Unlike before where my body would have reacted to her seeing her like this, now, I felt nothing. Only lookin at her the same way I was going to look at a fellow male's body. "Caroline, not today!" Without another word, I moved her to the side, hurriedly walking out of the door. Thinking about the call I had gotten few minutes ago, my hands tightened on the wheels. "I shouldn't have let her go! I should have called her!" Yelling, I pounded my fists on the wheel, with my anger leaking out from me. Thinking back to a few minutes ago when I had just bring thinking about Aria, only to get a call from the hospital. Before she left, numerous scenarios of how I'd be called had flashed my mind but definitely
ARIA'S POV; Firstly, it was like having a bucket of cold water nrong dumped on me, not until Ronald chose to stare at me, holding my gaze while dipping his wet finger into his mouth. At that moment, the heat that was about dying in my belly came back to life. Just then, the door burst open and once again, I had to relive the feeling of having a bucket of cold water getting dumped on me. Immediately, my eyes went to my clothes and aside the scattered sheets, I wasn't in disarray. "What happened? Are you okay?" Damien's familiar voice immediately brought back the memories of how I had gotten here in the first place. Remembering the accident, followed by Esmeralda's warning to me was something I didn't want to relive agains. I raised my head to stare at him, only to see he already had his eyes on Ronald, or more like the finger he had in his mouth. Damien's blue eyes came to find mine, staring between I and Ronald and from the realization in his eyes, there was no
ARIA'S POV;I walked through the school gates, feeling a mix of emotions. It happened to be my first day back after the accident, and I was nervous about seeing everyone again, not knowing whether the news had spread already.My mind went back to the brief meeting I had with the dean of my faculty earlier this morning. It was a letter reminding me about the part of my tuition fee I had to pay. “Aria Marblemaw, opportunities like this are rare. So, I suggest you try to meet up as best as you can. The college has helped you enough to the best of its abilities and now, you'll have to do the same,” the dean had said to me and every one of her words hit a certain part of me that had pushed me into picking this college and coming here in the first place, far away from home. Thankfully, my mother had gone back home, leaving me to continue my job back at the club but unlike before where the profit had seemed enough, now, I became aware of how behind I was. As I made my way to my lecture ha
ARIA'S POV; I stepped into Damien's room, feeling a mix of nerves and anticipation. Every bit of confidence I had before stepping into his home crumpled in an instant. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was determined to learn. Damien closed the door behind me and gestured to the pole in the center of the room. "Okay, first things first, we need to get you comfortable with the pole." I was glad there was no form of talk or awkward discussion and we were just going to get right into it. I nodded, my eyes fixed on the shiny metal rod. Damien walked over to me and handed me a pair of high heels. "Put these on. You'll need to get used to dancing in them." I took the shoes and slipped them on, feeling the familiar click of the heels on the floor. Damien nodded in approval. "Good. Now, let's start with some basic moves." I was glad I had chosen to put on a trouser and a crop top before coming here and to avoid me being in an awkward situation. I pulled off my jacket, handing it to
Third person's POV; Paxton pack- far from Elite college and the eyes of many. Ronald was never the type to beat himself up for any action he took, and yet, what he had done the other night to a certain someone kept plaguing his mind. That night , his wolf had been calm and even though Caroline was beside him, his eyes remained on Aria, listening attentively to her. The moment she had mentioned you going to see Damien, it was at that point every rational thoughteft his head. Pretending not to care was the only thing he could do in front of Caroline and even as he tried to subtly warn Aria not to go, her adamant attitude only pushed him further to the edge until finally, he couldn't take it anymore. In a moment of anger, going as far as forgetting the intimacy he and Aria had back in the hospital, he had pulled Caroline, kissing her aggressively right in front of Aria. The moment Aria had ran out, he had been decisive, pulling away from Caroline and walking out too, l
Aria's POV; My nerves were up in bundles, rocking against every part of my body and each breath I took was only making things worse. As I sat at the backstage, staring at myself in the mirror, I was having a hard time recognising myself. I had never been one who fancied opening my body. I had always thought dressing like this was just to show off but the more I stared at myself in the mirror, the more I realized there was more to this world than I knew. My extra front size had always made me feel self conscious of myself, and yet, as I stared back at the me in the mirror, I loved every part of me. Thinking back to how fast I had gotten to this stage, first with having practices together with Damien and our relationship growing incredibly close, signing a contract with Rover, and then my first day here, I was a bundle of chaotic nerves. "Nervous right? It always happens on the first day. You'll get over it after the first day" Another lady whose tits were far smaller than
THIRD PERSON'S POV; It was a sunny afternoon and sitting comcentratedly in his office was Ronald who was still solving issues in his pack. Only this time, he was now sitting upright, with his phone to his ear and his brows pressed tightly together in a frown. "Why are you telling me this?" He asked after some time while his fingers rhythmically began tapping on the expensive wooden and nicely carved table in front of him. Dressed in a black shirt that cling tightly to his body, the first two top buttons loose, Ronald looked like a meal. On the other end of the call, Rover chuckled, the sound grating Ronald's nerves. How could he not know that Rover was up to nothing good? Calling him to suddenly talk about Aria's first night as a stripper had definitely caught Ronald off guard but he wasn't just about to joyfully thank Rover like an innocent person would. Being in the dark world for long, he knew there was no one there who did favours for free. It was a world
ARIA'S POV; " Please, can we talk later? Do you promise to call me so we can talk? I'm so sorry about yesterday. I didn't know anything about those things that happened," another string of Damien's apology filtered into my ears for the tenth time that morning. Sleep had been so far from me throughout the night and sharing a room with my mother hadn't been pleasant due to her insistence on trying to get me to talk to her. At times like this, I wondered if she was being inconsiderate and not even giving me time to think about the shocking information I had only gotten to know about yesterday. As I made my way out of Damien's mansion with my luggage in tow, and only one place in mind for me to head to, I ignored Damien who kept trying to talk to me. Call me petty but knowing his parents had a hand in the misfortune of my father and if worse, his miserable death was all shades of angering. Knowing I'd possibly have no choice but to listen to him sooner or later or have hi

Aria's pov; "Look me in the eyes and say all you just said now and I promise I'd let you go and would never appear in your sight again," said Ronald, tightening his hand around while but the seriousness in his voice and the air being thick with tension was the only thing that reminded me not to push this further than I already have. I didn't have to turn to look at him to know he was dead serious and this itself was like being monitored and my hands being tied together, unable to do a thing. "Aria, look me in the eyes and say all you just said again and I swear it, I'll let you go," said Ronald for the second time in all seriousness. My hand which I was just about to pull out of his remained frozen, different thoughts and scenarios running through my head. There were only two ways to this thing. If I truly wanted him out of my life and only claimed him to be a buyer, then by all means, I ought to let him go. Instead, I couldn't find myself doing that and it was as if I co

KHALEESI’S POV; Darkness slowly carried me and I willingly let it, too weak to fight against it. Shadows floated above me and I fought for my consciousness, hoping to bring myself out of whatever state this was. Forcing my eyes open, I closed them back immediately, trying to get used to the sudden brightness that almost blinded me. I forced them open again, only to see shadows swimming at the edges of my vision, their hands stretching out to me as if asking me to come. Their hands were spread out towards me, inviting me and immediately, I tried to force my eyes open. “Ah!” With a loud gasp, i sat up on the bed, my eyes flew open, my back cold with sweat and a creepy feeling crawling up my spine. The cold that slowly washed over me was none like no other and the odd scent of burning wood happened to wake my senses. Staring around me, the first thing that came in sight was a small traditional pot with a small fire burning at the middle. Slowly, I let my eyes roam towards the
Aria's pov; If you were to ask me years back that how did I picture how my first time making live was going to be, then I was ready to tell you a lengthy story about it. I was prepared to even given out details that were never true but I hoped was going to come true. Each and everytime I had painted images in my head, there happened to be a point where a gentle tweak was going to happen and there after, there was a possibility of everything changing, like a whole new scene. As I sat back on the recliner chair, thinking about the past of the thoughts I had back then when I had no idea that things like this wasn't going to happen, a smile spread on my face just thinking about it. What had I pictured my first time with my lover was going to be? At that period, most ladies my age had all had their fair share of what sex was but yet, there I was, in a whole new fantasy of mine. I had prioritized having these thoughts over going out to experience them myself and then Cole came
Aria's POV; Today was supposed to be my father's burial, where I was supposed to peacefully lay him to rest without any worry but instead, my mind was more on something else. Deep down, I was curious as to how none of my father's relatives had been introduced to me up until his death. A sudden flash of the adoption documents I had accidentally found in my father's drawer came into my mind. Was he adopted? Is that why I haven't seen any of his relatives? Every attempt to ask my mother had been futile since she was still in mourning, finding it hard to cope with the loss of her husband. “Are you going to be fine? You only just entered college, and now, you have to bear this brunt and carry this on your shoulder,” one of the neighboring people I've always known said with a small squeeze on my shoulder. She bent a bit, seeing as I was a few inches taller than her, before taking my hand into hers. Staring into her watery eyes, once again, the bitterness and pain I had be
