View MoreBy morning I woke up to an empty warm bed.The sun entering through the curtains cast long warm shadows across the floor.Scanning through the room, I noticed I was alone and Micheal was gone. Sitting up slowly on the bed frame as I try to remind myself why I was in a hotel room.For a brief minute, I try to tell myself that everything that had happened the night before was all a dream. But the stained bed covers of my own wetness mixed with blood reminded me of the incident that happened between me and Micheal.My disappointment became evidence that I wished everything could go back to the way it was, and I never came here at first, but who am I to play with nature and time?A soft knock on the door startled me and before I could answer, the door swung open revealing ma'am Lucy, the very woman who had brought me here.She stepped into the room, her eyes scanning my body and the covers, evidence of what had happened on it showed to her view. A cruel and satisfied smile appeared on he
I was still feeling speechless because the kiss was unexpected and sudden.On a second thought I wanted to push him away and break free from his grasp but I couldn't feel the courage or zeal to do so, as I felt defeated and vulnerable at this point.My heart didn't stop pounding loudly in my chest, making me sweat in panic. I haven't done this before, nor have I kissed a man before. He's just stolen my innocence through this kiss and I wouldn't forgive him for this but what can I do? I should have known that something like this would happen in the end since I willingly entered a man's hotel room, so what then did I expect? I had several thoughts on how I was going to stop this to fight him off me but he was too strong. His grip on my hands above my head tightened and instead of me feeling the kiss, I was rather feeling pain. I couldn't breathe properly as I hoped and prayed I wouldn't die before he left me alone. When he finally pulled away from me, my lips felt sore and bruised as
The cold night air made my body shiver slightly. Even the grip from the covers I held against my small naked frame didn't help much.I held my breath as I felt my teeth grind against the other in nervousness, while I tried to suppress myself from bursting into tears.At this moment I wished the ground could open to hide me from this humiliation I had gotten myself Into. I'm so sure that if anyone passes by and sees me in this state, they would think of me as a whore or something , but in this state I don't care if anyone finds me this way or think of me as a beggar, all I want is for me to get over this and find my way out of here.If only he could consider me and have his way with me tonight, I'm sure by the end of tomorrow, he'll be able to use his connections and resources to save my family from this unpaid debt. But the Micheal I have come to know is a no nonsense man, he is powerful and feels intimidating. Even from the way he speaks shows how cruel and stubborn he is but who am
WENDY'S POVI was in front of the magnificent Brilliant Hotel, which made me feel so small in comparison to it. The night was chilly, but I could feel the sweat trickling down my back. My family’s future was at stake on this particular night, a night that I should never have been involved in. It was Grace who agreed to be here, not me. But when she backed out, my mother had no other option but to turn to me. With our family in a deep financial mess, she did not blink an eye to push me into this.I inhaled deeply to ease the growing ball of apprehension that was forming in the middle of my chest. This I had to do. I had no choice. If I didn’t, we could lose everything. However, the idea of spending the night with a man I had never met, not in some clinical surrogacy process but spent the night with him as his grandfather had ordered us in exchange of money.Lucy’s words rang in my head, I remembered what she told me earlier on. ‘He likes women who are innocent, untouchable, and submiss
