Claire's POV

I woke up to water pouring on my face as well as my body. I was on the hard floor of my cell, in a pool of my blood and water. I tried to move but pain shot all through my body, threatening to paralyze me.

I was hurting, from my eyes to my arms, to my legs. Basically, everywhere. It felt like I was placed on nails and pins which had been knocked into a board and had been made to face upwards.

“And the bitch is finally awake” Salvatore said as he neared where I lay

“You dare not die on me, you hear me?”

I didn't say anything. I was too weak to speak. My lips trembled as I shook with silent sobs.

“I. asked. a. question” He said through gritted teeth as he yanked my hair. I managed to mutter a reply as more pain spiraled throughout my body.

“Get her up. She needs a shower”

A man grabbed my arm and pulled me up. For a moment, my knees felt like jelly and my steps wobbled, but he paid no attention to that and roughly pulled me along with him.

I struggled and kicked, but it was no use.Salvatore stood before me, "You should have just listened, Claire," he said, With a flick of his wrist, Salvatore signaled to his men. They sprang into action, setting up a large stone fireplace in the center of the courtyard.Even when I was dangling upside down, my eyes widened in horror as I realized what was happening. "No, please," I begged, but Salvatore just laughed."It's too late for mercy, Claire," he said. "You're going to make a wonderful addition"They arranged firewood and charcoals.

I had expected Salvatore to return, to punish me like he used to.

    Claire's POV The door to the room I was in creaked open with so much force, making me jump in fright. Salvatore barged in angrily. It was the morning of our flight to Chicago and I was still not dressed yet. My hands flew to shield my bare breasts. The only thing I had on me was a pair of black lace panties. The tip of my hair dropped some water. I had just gotten out of the bathroom and I had not blow-dried it yet. “The fuck, Claire!” He expounded “You're still not dressed yet?” I opened my mouth to talk but I couldn't form any words. “For fuck’s sake, we have a flight to catch in minutes and you're just in panties?” His forehead was creased in annoyance as he reached out and grabbed my left arm. His fingers dug into my flesh and it felt like I was clawed by an animal. My right hand still struggled to shield my breasts. “You jumped scared me, Salvatore. I just finished taking a shower” I replied, with pleading eyes “Do I look like I give two hoots about that? Hell, what do you

    Claire's POV I watched as Megan filed her nails at one end of the living room. I had a question to ask her but we had never really talked. I didn’t know what it was like conversing with her, but she was the only person I could think of who could give me an answer. My palms were sweaty as I debated on how to approach her. Start a conversation with her, then throw in the question or just ask the question straight up at once? I wasn't sure exactly which one was going to work. She happened to see someone in the room with her because she raised her head. Our eyes met and I averted my gaze. When I looked at her again, she had returned to filing her nails. “How may I help you? You seem like you need something” She said, not taking her focus off her nails “Oh, ohm….I….I have a question to ask” “Okay?” She arched a brow at me, my cue to go ahead and ask my question “So, I want to know what Salvatore's favorite food is” “And why would I tell you that?” She paused her filing and stared

He is screaming and crying.""And why is that?" I asked, a little bit concerned "He is talking of visiting you and even broke his window trying to escape.","And where were you when all of this was happening? Didn't I pay you to watch him!" I yelled and the silence on the phone lasted for a while."I was in the… kitchen" her voice shook."I'm sorry, Mr Salvatore.""Well, make the boy understand that he can not come to visit me and I am doing enough by coming to see him!""I'll do that" she quickly responded."And give him all the prescribed pills and just get him to sleep somehow.

    Claire's POV My reflection stared back at me through the mirror. My face had been contoured and my cheekbones had been heightened, courtesy of the make-up artist, a talented male cross-dresser named Sasha. “Oh my, oh my” He exclaimed as he clasped his hands on his chest, in the manner that most effeminate men would “Claire to the world! They wouldn't know what hit them!” A plastic smile spread across my lips. He had done a good job but I wasn't interested in that. I didn't like the fact that I was being forced into doing something against my wish, but I had no choice. “We're good to go, girl. Get up, let's look at you” Sasha said after he had adjusted my wig and tucked strands of hair behind my ears I stood up and looked at myself in the mirror, in all my stripper glory. I was dressed to the nines, with my extremely high heels, fishnet stockings, and a flashy blonde wig that cascaded down my back.Sasha grabbed the makeup brush and quickly dabbed different portions of my face, hy

I lay wide awake, unable to get any sleep, the room felt very hot even when I knew the climate was cold.I sat up on the bed for some minutes, before the stomach upset hit badly. I groaned and placed my hand on my abdomen, beating it slightly as I tried to prove strong. I lay back on the bed, eyes fixed on the ceiling.I didn't feel well. I groggily sat up in bed again, my stomach stirring with a rush of nausea. I glanced over at Megan, who was fast asleep beside me.It was useless waking her up over some little symptoms. Maybe all I needed was water, or a drink or something that could stop this feeling. As I tried to lay back, the pain came again."Hey, Megan... I don't feel good," I whispered urgently, shaking her shoulder.Megan murmured something confusing in her sleep and rolled over, pulling the blankets tighter ar

The doorbell rang again almost immediately but I didn't see any sign of anyone else coming to answer it. I took that as my cue to answer it. But just as I was about to stand up, Elyse appeared in the living room. “I'll answer it, don't worry” Elyse said I turned to the door when Elyse opened it, and I was greeted by the sight of Romano standing there, with a warm smile on his face. He looked just as handsome as I remembered, with his tousled hair and charming eyes. “Heyyyy” he drawled, stepping forward to wrap her in a hug.

My heart skipped three beats. I abandoned my movie for his text. ‘I can't wait to see you in the dress. Sign and collect ASAP. And no, I'm not spilling the location’ Wait, what? This could only mean one thing. Romano was taking me out. He was asking me out on a date. A proper, restaurant date. We hadn't done this before, although we had a lot of chemistry. I liked Romano a lot and he liked me right back, so there was no way I was going to say no or stand him up. The doorbell rang immediately and I answered it. A face–capped man with a package, clipboard and pen stood, waiting for me. I wrote my signature hastily, got the package and dashed back inside.I didn't even bother exiting Netflix, I just grabbed my phone and sprinted up the stairs.

The sun was getting brighter and I wanted us to get to the penthouse before late afternoon. I looked at the wall on the clock. The time read 09:10 am. “Take care, Elyse, I'll miss you” Romano smiled at her “I'll miss you too” She smiled back Our bags were hauled by some bodyguards to the trunks of the two vehicles taking us.
