His Fated Sin

REBECCA

“GET OUT OF THIS ROOM OR I WILL RIP YOU APART. LEAVE NOW.”

The moment his eyes changed, he turned into a scary monster. His teeth turned to fangs.

He gave me a scary stare that made me feel like peeing on my body.

As he started to walk closer to me, I opened my eyes and let out a terrifying scream.

I looked around and found out that I was the only one in the room.

That scary rude jerk isn’t here.

I am alone, which means I am safe.

There is no Fabio turning into a scary monster here.

It was just me.

What kind of dream is that?

Why did he appear into my dream as a monster?

I stood up from the bed and peeped through the window to see if the sun was up already, but I was wrong. It wasn’t up yet. The sky is still dark, with tiny stars glowing.

As I stared at the stars, my mind went to what happened a few hours ago before I fell asleep.

Apparently, this room belongs to Fabio’s late mother. Something like a special room, according to him.

He was so livid when he saw me in this room and ordered me to leave. I clearly saw his eyes change colours, although I don’t know what it means.

He was this close to attacking me when his father walked in and came to my aim by dragging his son out to stop him from hurting me.

I was hoping Leonardo would return to explain to me if it is really safe for me to be here or not.

But he wasn’t the one who came back to me. It was my mum.

Because we weren’t on a good page, she only informed me that I am free to keep staying in this room, and I am not going anywhere before she left.

I was about to fall asleep after everything that had happened. I thought I could finally rest, but that annoying jerk still visited me in my dreams, causing me to stay awake at this time.

I wish I could also wake him up so that we both will suffer together. I shouldn’t be the only one suffering by staying awake by this time of the night.

I wonder what the time is.

The sound of my phone buzzing brought my mind back to reality.

I picked up my phone and saw it was Eva who sent me a message.

I didn’t forget to go give her my last hug before leaving. We promised each other to always keep in touch with each other and one day we would definitely see each other again.

We will still remain best friends but unfortunately we will be in a long-distance friendship.

‘Can we talk, or are you sleeping?’ was her message.

It must be serious for her to text me this late and request for us to talk.

I quickly went back to the big bed and called her. I video call her to see her face.

“Hello Eva, are you alright? What happened to you?” I asked her as I was almost about panicking the moment she answered the call.

Instead of pouting or giving me a sad look, she smiled so brightly.

“Oh my goodness, I miss you so much, Becks. It isn’t up to a month yet. I miss you this much. I honestly don’t think I can stay so long without you around.” she whines.

I felt relief cooled my lungs, making me relax a bit.

“Goodness, you almost gave me a scare. I thought something bad happened to you.”

She brought her face close to the camera.

“Look at my face, girl. I am having some kind of spots only because I miss you so much. Also, if you were here, we would have done our registration today. It felt so lonely doing it yesterday without you.” she pouts.

I gave her a sad smile, trying to keep it in.

I didn’t want to think of it because thinking about it hurts so much.

“Soon you will have friends, and you won’t feel lonely anymore.” I try to comfort her.

“But you know it won’t be the same. We have planned this together for a long time, so doing it alone feels really weird. I hope you can come back.”

I let out a sad sigh.

“I also wish I could come back. This house, no scratch that because this is literally a mansion, not a house. This mansion is filled with lots of drama, and not just that, a crazy asshole lives here, unfortunately. I am already exhausted and I want to go back home.”

I didn’t know when I changed the topic.

Before I could stop myself, it was too late.

Eva was already giving me a fishy smile.

“Isn’t that romantic? Who is this crazy asshole who is getting into my friend’s skin? Spill the tea. You don’t talk about men with such fire.” she asked, giving me a smile that didn’t sit well with me.

But there is no turning back, so I decided to tell her everything that has happened since I got here and my first and second encounter with that jerk.

“Is he handsome?” she smiled.

I glared at her as I wished she was next to me so I could smack her head.

“So after everything I just told you, the first thing that will come to your brain is if he is handsome? What kind of friend are you for crying out loud? You don’t seem to be concerned about what I just told you.”

She let out a guilty laugh before looking serious.

“I am sorry about that, Becks. I am only trying to look out for you? But what sort of rude jerk is he? He shouldn’t treat my best friend like that. I mean, you both are siblings now. You should get to know each other better than be enemies.”

“He is a huge asshole and I will not let him treat me like I am some piece of trash because this is his home. I also don’t want to be here so if he can’t accept it then he should go f**k himself.” I rolled my eyes as I was getting annoyed just thinking about him.

“But I really want to know, is he handsome and what age is he? Please just tell me.”

“Eva you should go and sleep now. It’s late.” I said trying to avoid this conversation.

“Are you forgetting that we are in different time zone? It is just evening here. I have all the time.” she chuckled.

“Well I need to go back to sleep. As you can see, the sun isn’t up yet and I need to continue sleeping. So bye.”

Before she could say anything, I hung up and laid on my bed.

Why the hell does she want to know if he is handsome or not? Even if he is handsome, I will forbid her from crushing on someone like that. He lacks manners and he looks like someone who breaks women heart.

I can’t let my best friend have a crush on this kind of person.

I tried to sleep back but it was so impossible. I finally gave up and began to scroll on my socials.

I accidentally stubbed on the jerk’s IG handle.

A thought flashed into my head to move past it but my curiosity won and I clicked on his profile hoping to see something that I can use against him in the future.

But to my greatest surprise, his account was on private so I couldn’t see anything.

I let out a groan and tried to leave his profile.

But then something scary happened.

My thump mistakenly pressed the follow button.

I held my breath as I watched it turn from follow to following.

Shit, this is going to be a bad day.

He is going to think I actually care about him when I don’t.

What do I do now?
