The drive to the brothel was long which I was hoping for it to be even longer so I could mentally prepare myself.Throughout the journey, Nicola would have his sudden fits of anger.I glance to my side and realize that there was couple of empty cans of alcohol scattered everywhere in his car, immediately my body began to tense in fear; he was drunk.

I didn't say anything or protest because if I did, I would get a beating.Also, if he did happen to crash now, it would be fortunately for me.In fact, I was praying as of right now that he crashes and kills us both so he can finally know what the feeling of death feels like.

We reached there after some time and Nicola pulled me out of the car as I stared at the building, my heart dropped.It was a small building, privately situated where no one could see it.The building was painted in dark colours which made it obvious that this building wasn't just some normal house or a public area.

"Get in!What the fuck are you waiting for?"Nicola hoarsely growled in my ear which startled me.His breath suddenly reeked of alcohol, he has definitely been drinking.

He grabbed my arm and dragged me in, forcing his way through but all I did was tremble in fear.As soon as I entered, the whiff of liquor danced around my nose which caused me to scrunch my face in, I hate the smell of alcohol.

Nicola walked further in and reached a corner, once we got there he let go of my arms and just glared at me.His eyes were bloodshot red and watery as he continued to lick his lips before he wiped it with the back of his hand

"Nicola please, let's go home and figure this out."I pleaded as I close the gap between us and caress his face, I was so desperate to convince him that I was willing to do anything."Please..."I whisper when my thumb traces over his lips,

"Fine."He said as his gaze was soft and gentle, I soon felt my heart just settle.My face dropped as he answered, I was expecting the opposite."However, you still disrespected me which means I have to do something about it."He replied before he grabbed my wrists and clenched it.I watch his face in horror while he glares at me.

"Nicola, what are you doing?No!Let go of me!"

Before I could protest more, Nicola threw me on the nearest table but that wasn't the most insulting part, what Nicola announced next made my heart drop.

"Gentleman, gentlemen.You see thisfille de joie?" He started as he pointed his fingers at me, he slurred his words to everyone as he opened a bottle of alcohol.I felt ashamed and so embarrassed when he began to collect nearly everyone's attention, I couldn't do it anymore."I'm going to fuck her here right now because she didn't listen to me."My eyes widened and my stomach dropped, "Do not disturb!"He yelled as he took a gulp of the alcohol.

I clawed the table when he handled me like I was nothing but a piece of trash.Piece by piece, I felt as though my soul was slowly detaching itself from my body because I couldn't feel anything.My brain was slowly switching off and my heart began to pump slowly because of the shock of all this; this was by far the worst thing Nicola has ever done to me.

Slowly, I let myself go thinking it would be the last breath I would take but unfortunately, it wasn't.

It wasn't.

And because it wasn't, I began to consider mom's idea.
