Dark Desires

Chapter 4

Alyssa POV

“Sleep with me Alyssa.”

“Sleep with me Alyssa.”

“Sleep with me Alyssa.”

Those words kept echoing on my head like a broken tape recorder. It didn’t sound like a request. It was more like a command. How could he say this to a girl whom he just met a day ago? Wait…..How did he know my name? That isn’t important now shithead…. A murderer like him can find anything about anyone, you know?

Did he just asked me to have s*x with him? How dare he? Anger boiled in my system like a lava under the erupting volcano. I was so damn angry that I could have punched him straight on his face. But the intimidating look and frame of him told me likewise.

If I raised my hands, he could just punch me back……. And I probably wouldn’t even survive that. Judging by his height and muscular biceps, I doubt that I could even fight him if he was about to rape me here.

“NO” I yelled, surprising myself a little too much. His eyebrows scrunched into a deep frown, not liking my reply. But too bad, who cares? This was my right! If I didn’t raise my voice now, then I would never be able to voice it anywhere again.

“No?” he raised an eyebrow challengingly while I displayed my strongest glare at him.

“No.” I repeated firmly, giving myself a virtual pat on my shoulders.

“Fine……… Let me chase your parents from that house then.” He stated casually, knocking off all the air from my lungs.

“You can't do that…. Please…” I panicked, but he ignored me and picked up his phone. Immediately dialling a number, he spoke to the person on the other side. He shoulders were rigid. Anger radiating from his body as he swivelled the fidget spinner in his other hand.

“Shawn, seize the property and throw the worthless people out. NOW!” he screamed, making my eyes dilate in shock. Was he talking about my family? s**t… no! He can't do this. I need to save my family. I can never live with the guilt that my family members were going to suffer because of me. But how could I sleep with him?

Isn’t this a form of rape too?

My head started to throb in pain as I tried hard to think of a solution out of my problem. But guess what? I found none.

“Please…………… please leave my family!” I screamed, rushing towards his side. He banged his phone on the table and pointed at the door.

“Leave! Pack your things and get ready to be thrown out from the house………… and guess what sweety? I will make sure you and your family would never find another house in this city” his voice was maliced with anger and victory. 

“Please….” I sobbed holding on to my hopes that he will melt… at least a little because of my tears. But nope. He proved that he was heartless and true monster. He just stared at me, unaffected by my words or tears.

Just as I was about to open my mouth again, I felt my phone vibrating inside my pockets. With shaky hands, I placed the phone on my ears, only to get another shock of my life.

“Aly…..Oh god Aly…” I heard my mother crying on the other side. My chest tightened as I gripped the phone tightly.

“What happened maa?”

“The police is here Aly…. There’s a legal notice….. asking us to vacate immediately. Can you come home quickly… your dad fainted. I guess his blood pressure has gone high….h-he…h-e” she couldn’t speak further. Not being able to bear her voice, I cut the call and faced the monster.

“Can I have some time to think about your offer. Please?” I begged him with my hands folded. But he didn’t seem to listen to my pleas at all. He just turned around and took a book from his table. Arrogant bastard.

“Come back when you’re ready. Until then, get out!” he spoke with an authoritative tone, making me flinch in my place.

My knees buckled on the floor as tears flowed helplessly on my face. I was sure that my face was already drenched with salty tears. Damn, I haven’t cried so much in a long time. Images of my beautiful family played infront of me like a live video and fading away when the harsh truth hit me.

How can I do this? How could I sleep with a man whom I don’t know anything about? How can I lose my virginity to a guy who’s a murderer? A guy who kills and tortures people, a guy who could destroy me after he uses me….right? God….. why me?

Wasn’t I allowed to fall in love and marry a guy of my choice like other girls? Why did fate play a cruel game in my life?

Do I want to do this? Wait………… I don’t even have a choice, do I? I made up my mind. My father would never be able to bear such an embarrassment if we were thrown out of our house. He would die in humiliation. If I had to sacrifice for my family…. Then I would definitely do it! Yes I would….do it.

“Okay” a low whisper left my lips as I looked at the ground below me. This was painful…. Damn this was really heart-breaking.

Although I didn’t look up, I could feel his eyes piercing at my side. When I looked up, it was there again. That arrogant smile…. I really hope he rots in hell. He slowly took his phone and dialled a number in it.

“Drop the plan.” Was all he said.

--------------------------

“Ohhhh….Alyssa….” My father hugged me tightly as I stayed numb to everyone’s voice. I just stayed there like a lifeless corpse, trying my best to smile at their happiness.

But my smile could never reach my eyes. I just hoped that no one notices it. My mum was the next to hug me.

“We brought your dad to the hospital… I was so scared Aly…” my mum sighed. “But suddenly we got a call that they are willing to give us more time. They even said that they would consider selling the house to us.” My mum gleamed, wiping her tears away.

“I have no idea what made them change their mind. When I came back from the hospital, the men who came to clear the house apologised. You know how that felt?.” Dad said with unshed tears in his eyes.

“That’s great dad” I said flatly as my mum’s eyes narrowed at me.

“Did you cry Aly?” she asked suspiciously, tilting my face towards her.

“No mom, I am just tired.” I sighed and got up.

When I walked inside the room, a sudden wave of nauseas hit me. It felt painful to even think about the deal which I just made. How could I fulfil it? He’s such an influential guy with lots of woman around him. On the other hand, I was a nerd who knew nothing about s*x.

A pathetic virgin!

Why the hell was he doing this to me when he could easily have any girl in his arms? Why Alyssa? I started hating myself for accepting the deal…. But did I have any choice? My mind went through all kind of possibilities, thinking of a way I could escape this threat. Can I run away?

But he will find my family and throw them out! Shaking my head in depression, I slumped down on the bed and clutched my hands tightly. Anger, irritation and sadness, was all I felt.

Just as I was drowning in my own sorrows, a beep sound in my phone made my eyes jerk open.

At my house at five tomorrow. – Adrian

My hands were shaking with anger. How the hell did he think I was this easy? Adrian, YOU ARE SO DEAD!

Try finding me tomorrow, you asshole!
