Only Fool Me Once
I was Lonnie Vaughn's fiancée, yet he treated me with disdain, looking at me as though I was nothing more than a bothersome obligation.
To outsiders, I was just a caged songbird he kept for amusement—disposable when he tired of me.
I refused to believe it. In my eyes, Lonnie loved me, too; he was just terrible at expressing it.
But that illusion shattered when I became the victim of face-swapping. When those filthy videos were played in front of Lonnie, he refused to listen to my desperate explanations. When I was kidnapped, he refused to pay the ransom.
All because his maid sneered, "Olivia's tainted. She needs to be taught a lesson."
Lonnie responded, "I never want to see you again in this lifetime." Those words fueled the captors' cruelty.
For three months, they tortured me.
By the end, I truly was tainted, and my love for Lonnie was buried beneath layers of ash and despair.
Then Lonnie appeared before me while sobbing in regret, begging me to love him again.
