Chapter 3 Tired and helpless

Scarlett opened her groggy eyes slowly. It was still misty outside with light threatening to tear up the night sky.

She hummed a little and suddenly felt a muscled arm hold her waist firmly and pulled her back to his chest. His touch created a shiver that settled down between her legs when his lips pressed into her neck and traveled up to her ear.

"Sleep tight, little bird. I will eat you again in the morning." His sleeping tone was like whisky as he whispered in her ear.

Scar was stunned.

Though his words won to wake up her desires and the proof was between her thighs. It also awakened her inner sense which she lost last night because of the drug. The reality hit her hard.

She had lost her virginity to a stranger! God! How could she explain it to Ricci?

The realization immediately screamed for her to run away yet she tried not to lose her cool.

As she felt his steady breath on her neck, she slowly removed his hands from her and slipped out of the bed. Intense pain wrinkled her face.

Looking down, she knew she was a mess of all the orgasms they had the whole night. Their crazy night caused her to bite her lips down as she looked at the unholy creature in front of her.

He was so gorgeous and Scar never had seen anything like him. His sinful charm and skills in bed would make women yearn for him even if they didn't want to. But Scar quickly shook her head.

She already had a boyfriend and this could not happen anymore.

Before getting her boyfriend's forgiveness, she needed to deal with the culprit Elie first.

"Goodbye, stranger." Before stepping out, she looked at the sleeping gorgeousness for once and murmured.

***

When the angry Scarlett changed and arrived at the house, it was empty. She decided to go upstairs and was forced to stop by some sudden unpleasant sounds.

The sounds coming from Camilla's room.

The door was slightly parted, and Scarlett pushed it a little and peeked inside. She was just frozen on the spot, as she found out that her boyfriend was pounding in her sister's cunt in pleasure!

Scarlett's teary and rage-filled eyes on them, and she heard Camilla asking between her moans.

"Oh, yes! Ricci yes! Tell me, who is the better one... Mmmhmmm... Me or that Scarlett? Ahhhmmm..."

Scar's heart was torn into pieces when she saw Ricci squeeze Camilla's jumping breasts in his hand lustfully.

"You! You are so fucking best!" His pace fastened and groaned. . "Scarlett is a pathetic bitch, unlike you! Oh... Ohhhh... So fucking good you are, Camilla! You're the best!"

Scar couldn't help but pinch herself hard to see if it was a dream. But the pain told her it was all real.

The one who chanted 'I love you' to her every moment, was now fucking her stepsister with so much pleasure! Her tears flowed more fiercely.

She always thought, after her best friend Saffron, Ricci was the next person she could put her trust on.

But clearly, he never deserved it.

“Peng!” Scarlett pushed the door open and dropped the bomb, "I thought you always said, I am the better one, huh?"

Her cold and enraged tone was like a thunder shock to the two as they stopped abruptly, turning to her.

Getting caught Red handed, both Camilla and Ricci separated from each other, covering themselves with bed sheets, flustered by the situation.

"Oh, baby, please let me..." Racci attempted to explain but his condition now was too unconvincing. His head fell down while meeting Scar's mockery eyes.

"Why, Ricci?" Scarlett asked with her heavy pain tone.

"Why not?" Camilla snapped at her and got down from bed, covering her intimate parts with the bed sheet.

"Why wouldn't he be with me, huh? You heard it yourself, I am the best." She looked Scar up and down. "What about you? Where did you come from?"

This question hit Scarlett hard. How would she answer this question? To her dismay, Camilla answered it.

"Oh, of course, you just came after fucking a dirty old man the whole night. At least he fucked a beauty. A lot more mature than you." She smirked and suddenly pulled down Scar's sleeves, making the hickeys on her body appear.

Scarlett was shocked to her core.

Camilla then turned to Ricci with a pout, "See, baby? She was not as innocent as you thought."

The guilt in Ricci's eyes was immediately replaced by anger and jealousy, "How dare you, bitch! You promised you would belong to me!"

He was even about to slap her but Scar blocked it, throwing him an unbelievable look.

"I don't think you have the right to judge me after all these disgusting things you did." She dropped his hands away and turned to Camilla with a heavy face.

"So, you already know. It was planned by you and your mother. " It's not a question, she had got the answer from Camilla's flustered eyes.

Camilla was taken a step back by her aura, as if Scar was going to tear her apart in the next second. She couldn't help hiding herself behind Ricci.

As Scar was close to dragging Camilla out,  a maid knocked at the door.

"Master O'Dean is asking for the first and the second mistress in his study."

***

Scarlett looked up at her father Connor O'Dean, seated behind his desk with a hookah pipe under his teeth, blowing on it from time to time.

Has dark eyes, a straight edge nose with an olive skin tone, unlike Scarlett. She has taken after her mother, so beautiful along with grace.

She has never seen anyone so selfish as Connor. This man could do 'anything' in a straight line just to fulfill his motives.

Since childhood, Scarlett never accommodated her father. She would always mention him as a sperm donor. Then again, this man did not care.

Running out of her patience, Scarlett urged him, "what is it that you want?"

"Oh! Look at that mannerless girl! How dare you talk to your father like that?!" Elie retorted against her words.

Scarlett scoffed. "Oh please, should I announce what you and your daughter did?" She gritted her teeth. Elie was about to say something but was stopped by Connor.

"Ah. Stop it." He was annoyed and Scarlett rolled her eyes. Of course, it's foolish to expect anything else from this man.

Connor looked up at his daughters with seriousness. "I have some serious talking with you girls. Listen to me carefully."

He sucked a blow on his hookah pipe before continuing.

"Prepare for the banquet tonight arranged by the famous Edwards family. They are going to pick a fiance for their heir, Rafaelle Edwards. And both of you are attending the banquet."

'And here it goes again. Of course, this is Connor O'dean.' Scarlett murmured in her mind bitterly.

"Wow! The Edwards family! One of the most noble families in our country! They picked me! "Camilla chimed in excitement and Scar just rolled her eyes at her.

'Wasn't she fucking Ricci a minute ago? Being so lovey-dovey? Now what?'

Well, this family drama would never end. So Scar decided to let go.

"I am not a part of this arrangement at all." She was about to leave but her father stopped her.

"Do not dare to leave!" He was angry, standing up from his seat.

"You have to attend. I have provided everything to you, growing you up and now you are denying your father!? How dare you!?"

"Oh, calm down honey", Elie cooed. "You know, she is always rebellious like that. Why not send only Camilla?"

For the first time, Scarlett felt thankful to her stepmother.

"Your wife is right, I am not attending this banquet. She can attend." She agreed and turned around to leave but was abruptly stopped by Connor's next words.

"Fine then, if you don't want your mother's relic and the truth, walk out." A little smirk was on his lips.

He didn't actually care about the truth but she does and he knows it.

He wouldn't have stopped this brat if Scar was not outstanding from Camilla in all sorts.

There was a high chance for Scarlett and by her, he could be with Edwards.

"Wh...what do you mean? What relic?" Scarlett snapped her eyes at him and took a step forward, filled with doubts.

"Oh, I will tell you, my dear daughter. But before that, you need to do my work." With a lingering smirk, he once again blows his hookah.

"Be the fiancée or help your sister to become one. And after you succeed, I will give you what you want."

Scarlett closed her eyes shut, clenching her fists. The more she wanted to stay away from this family, the more got stuck in!

Now, he left her with no choice by relating it to her mother.

Oh, how she wished this man had never been her father! Yet, no choice.

Gulping the lump in her throat, she opened her eyes.

"Fine. I will do what you said. But, only for this time." She threw her words and left the study in rage with uncontrolled tears.

Oh, if she knew what adventure is awaiting ahead of her...
