Chapter 2: Deal!

*My mouth opened in shock. I didn't take any second to think before my hand landed on his right cheek. I thought he was a good man because he helped me before. Tsk, I should have known it. He's just like any other man out there. He's much more of an asshole than the one that harassed me at the bar.

*"I should have known from the start that there was something in exchange for you helping me! Well, no thanks, Fire!" I snarled at him and walked outside the cafe.

*What did I even expect from a wealthy playboy like him? He only thinks about himself. The only important thing for him is to follow his whims in life. He uses his wealth to get anything he wants.

*Three days have already passed since that happened. Even if it pains me, I reluctantly accepted the fact that I won't be able to graduate from college.

*I kept on searching for a new job, but to no avail, I ended up walking home. As I walked past a restaurant, I saw a group of boys inside, my blood instantly boiling as I recognized Fire standing within the group.

*This world is so unfair. He disrespected me but he's here smiling and laughing with his friends while I'm on the verge of losing everything in my life.

*My knees were shaking as I sat on a bench at a park. I don't know if it's from exhaustion or hunger. I'm feeling so bitter about life that I didn't notice a tear escaping from my eyes. I felt it rush down my cheeks and I didn't bother to stop my emotions from flowing out anymore. Right now I don't care even if people would look in my direction. I just want to release all of the sadness I am feeling right now.

*I reached the pocket of my uniform skirt but instead of a handkerchief, I found a crumpled piece of calling card.

*I stared for a long time at the calling card.

*This is my last hope. But can I do it? Will I be able to endure everything he'll make me do just so I can continue to pursue my dreams?

*My hand was shaking as I put back the calling card in my pocket. With a heavy heart, I started walking to the address stated in the calling card— to the only person that can help me get out of this shitty situation I am in.

**CALLANTE TOWERS

*A big sign glowing from the tall building I am currently facing. Once I enter inside, there will be no turning back.

*I can still turn my back and go home but if I do that, what will happen to my dreams? What will happen to my life?

*"You can do this Solene, think about your dreams." I cheered myself.

*I entered the building and took the elevator. I pressed the floor indicated on the back of Fire's calling card. He gave me this like he's fully aware that I'll come to him.

*I got out of the elevator and headed to the door located at the end of this floor. It's the only door here so I assumed that it's Fire's. From the name of this building, it's obvious that it is owned by his family.

*I faced the door and took a deep breath before knocking. Someone opened the door faster than I expected and what greeted me was Fire— only on his boxers, hair messy and wet. My cheeks heated at his sight and I avoided looking at him.

*"Solene?" He said amused.

*"Fire . . ." I called his name without looking at him.

*"What brought you here? I mean, come in. Get inside."

*I took a step and now I'm finally inside his unit as I felt his presence behind me.

*He then loosely sat on the sofa while I still couldn't bear to look at him straight.

*"Have a seat." He ordered and I took the liberty to be seated in front of him.

*Before I started talking, I swallowed every remaining shame, pride, and dignity in me.

*"Uhm . . . about your offer", I started, he's only sitting peacefully while occasionally smiling at me, "I'm w–willing to do it." I continued and looked down.

*"Are you sure about that?" I confirmed it with a nod and lifted my face.

*"There's no turning back Solene." From being gentle, his expression turned playful and a sly smile was visible form his lips.

*Before I knew it, I found my lips being ravaged by him. I don't know what to do so I let him do as he pleases. Even though my guts turned upwards and I badly wanted to throw up and push him away in disgust.

*Fear grew on my chest as I felt his hand on my back, supporting me and gently laying me down on the sofa I am sitting on. I can't control my feelings and a bead of warm tears flowed down me eyes. I can't completely accept the fact that I'm doing this with a man I don't love.

*"Can you really do this Solene?" He pulled his face to look at me and stopped kissing my neck. "If you can't, say it right away. Don't just cry there silently. I do not need a weak Barbie doll, Solene." I felt the irritation from his voice.

*A Barbie doll? I'm just a Barbie doll to him. A doll that he can break into pieces anytime he wants to. A toy that he can discard when he gets tired of it.

*"I- I can do it. I'm just nervous." I stuttered the words out.

*"Are you a virgin?". He asked straight into my face. I nodded shyly. "Damn . . .virgins, okay!" That's was the last words I heard from him before I was drowned into a sensation I haven't felt in my entire life.

*His hands traveled down my pant's zipper, he pulled it down and like a flash of lightning, he also pulled away the pants I am wearing. Now my bare legs were exposed. The embarrassment made my cheeks burn and I'm pretty sure it flushed red.

*"Aren't we going to do this on the bed?" I innocently asked him and instantly regretted bothering to ask him.

*He chuckled as if he just heard a funny joke. "Solene, I don't fuck girls on my bed."

*I don't know but pain swelled on my chest because of what he said.

*"Ready Solene?" I nodded without fully understanding what he said. It was late for me to know when my tears fell and I swung my arms tightly around his neck.

*Shit! It hurts so much! I never thought it would hurt this much! Pain consumed me and my tears continued on flowing as I felt his manhood enter me. I felt something tearing inside of me.

*"It hurts . . ." I said and pushed him away.

*"It's not even fully inside." He grabbed my hands on the wrist and brought it above my head.

*What? It's not yet fully inside? But it already hurts so much.

*He let go of my hand and took this opportunity to cling to his neck. With a single thrust, he entered me fully and I almost yelped from the pain. The ache was no joke.

*He started moving above me and the stinging pain I was enduring earlier gradually faded away. It was replaced by a sensation I can't explain. It tickles my stomach and I no longer know what to do and how to react.

*"Hmmm . . ." I almost grabbed my own hair when I failed to stop that low moan from escaping my traitorous mouth. I saw Fire grinned as he heard me.

*His thrusts were going faster and harder. There was something forming in my womb. Our breathing turned ragged. And I felt him withdraw his length from me. He kneeled in front of me and played with his cock until a white liquid squirted from it.

*After that he stood up and directly went inside the washroom. Is that it? Why do I feel like I was left hanging and there's something inside me that's dying to go outside?

*I already finished dressing when he exited the washroom with only a white towel hugging from his waist down to his knee.

*"Solene", he called my name and extended a paper to me. When I asked what it was, he only told me to look at it. I stared at the piece of paper and realized that it was a ₱50 000-check.

*"Wha- what's this? P- payment?" I asked him, stuttering.

*I didn't tell him to pay me for the sex. All I wanted was just for him to do something so that I could at least get back my scholarship. I know he's capable of doing that, given his connections at our school. Furthermore, I can't accept this. It makes me feel like some prostitute if I accept this from him.

*"I can't accept this." I returned the check to him but he didn't accept it.

*"Isn't that what you came here for?" He asked, confused.

*"What I want is for my scholarship to be back, and I know that you can do that. That's all." I clarified.

*He looked at me as if he was annoyed.

*"Alright, I'll fix your scholarship issue tomorrow. But for now, just accept the check. I know that you were fired from your job so where are you going to find such money? So you need to accept this check." Despite his lengthy explanation, I still can't bear to accept it.

*"Sorry, but I can't really accept this . . ."

*"Don't be so stubborn, Solene. Just think of this as a help from me. Don't make mead at you and I might . . ."

*"Fine!" I couldn't stop myself from raising my tone at him and I saw his eyebrow raise at me as he watched me intently.

*"Don't raise your voice at me next time. Always remember that I own you starting from now on and I can do anything I want with you." A threat.

*I secretly rolled my eyes and when I looked at him, amusement was plastered on his face.

*I pouted my lips. "What? Can't I even roll my eyes from now on?"

*He chuckled lightly, "Do what you want", and he shook his head.

*"Thank you, but I'll be sure to pay this back when I have money."

*He just shrugged and I took that for a "Yes".

And that's it. That's how everything started. That's the reason why I'm in this kind of situation. The reason why I found myself falling in love with him despite knowing the fact that he's only after my body from the very start of our agreement. I betrayed myself and my own words for falling in love with him. But before that, my body betrayed me first.
