MARILYN~
I sat on my bed fidgeting with my fingers nervously fearing what the outcome of my actions would be.
All the bravado that I had displayed at Madam Diana's office had suddenly disappeared into the thin air.
I instantly regretted saying that but then my wolf howled. 'Are you backing out now that everything is settled?'
"But…. But I'm not prepared mentally" I almost screamed. "How can I leave just abruptly and leave my friends behind and I…."
I suddenly felt some movements behind me.
I turned my head immediately and there was standing the other girls.
"Babes?" I called and stand up.
They came in looking at me tenderly.
I find this strange. "What's wrong with you? What happened?"
Then Fiona, the most fiercest girl that most of girls call the bully stepped forward looking less intimidating than her usual self, "Are you planning to leave without a goodbye?"
I blinked.
What did they know?
"Wh… What are you talking about?"
"Don't play ignorant whore!" She spat back, "We know everything about you and the Delta brothers"
My eyes widened in shock, "You… You knew?"
"I always know something is going on since you have been sneaking off with that hag too much these days" Another one snickered.
I felt guilty and like a betrayal as I heard this.
It felt like I have betrayed my real family or my real sisters.
"I don't know how to say it" I admitted. "When I felt my wolf, I wasn't expecting it to turn out this way"
"Unfortunately we know everything that's going on" Fiona shot back. "You think we
Wouldn't be happy for you?"
"But I'm leaving…." Tears burned my eyes. "I can't run from my fate. I don't want to leave but I had to…."
"You gave us hope!" Another one began.
"We all reject our mates. I personally was rejected by my mate when we met at the mall. They called us prostitutes, the most dirtiest and the most lowest even though we aren't Omegas….. I know it that one day, someone would break this curse on us and you did it Marilyn"
I became to emotional. My insides turn out with sadness. I don't know when I rushed forward and hugged Fiona first before other joined.
It was at this stage that I realized that everyone was crying.
Thinking back to it, we're all we got.
Even when new girls joined in, we always accept ourselves despite all the harsh words from men.
These people, Madam Diana, our blindfolds and gags were all we got.
Through every tears, every pains, it's always us.
Anytime a new girl was brought, we would listen with sadness and sorrow as she gets defiled against her wish.
But the reason most of us do cry with the defiled girl was that it reminds is of when we're still new too.
Fiona released me, trying to suppress her sobs, "I had always wanted motivation to plan my revenge but none came…." Her voice hitched. "But now, I can kick my mate in the ass and show him that I'm more than a prostitute"
We all laughed at her sad joke.
"I'm really sorry that it's going to end this way" I plead. "I never thought y'all would understand"
"We're one here" another one chimmed in. "That old hag thought us to be sisters"
It was through this emotional tired that the door cracked and we all turned to see Madam Diana standing by the door.
The room froze for a while.
"Girls….!" She suddenly screamed. "You guys are the most exceptional batch since this place has been created and I'm happy that it happened during my reign"
"You don't have to yell because of that"
Like that, we all laughed it off untill one by one, the girls dissipated to their various bussiness.
I was left alone again until screeching sound of the break pad echoed through the walls of the house and we all happened to freeze at that same moment.
Fiona who was packing her hair was the first to talk, "Why do I feel they're here?"
"Me too" another one seconded until everyone agreed and I stood frozen again.
They're here. My mates.
"Marilyn!!" The clerk's voice interrupted our standstill and everyone resume what they're doing but I know they're listening as the clerk resumed, "The Madam calls for you"
I exchanged a glance with Fiona and the others again and I hesitated for a while before finally following the clerk.
Each step I took reminds me of my sisters who said I gave them hope.
I got to the Madam's office and heaved a long sigh before opening the door and the first first person I landed my eyes upon was Lucifer!
First time I'll be seeing him without my blindfold.
His amber eyes glared at me and my hair stood at its end. 'It's okay. Everything will be just fine' My wolf assures. Lucifer's expression was just as dark as his black hair.
Beside him was Lucian who beamed a gentle smile but I didn't smile back. I immediately turned away and bowed slightly to Madam Diana, "You called for me"
"Oh yes" she said in a carefree but sad tone, "They're here. Lord Lucian and Lord Lucifer wants you, so you have to chose who you're going with"
I frowned in confusion. How can she be telling me to chose when we already arrived at the conclusion that I would only go with the both of them?
"Madam…. What are you…"
"My girl has to choose for herself!" She assert more to the two men than to me.
I was still confused as I don't know what she's scheming and then it hit me! She was putting on a act! Her way of testing them or warning them, so I thought I should play along so I nodded, "Madam, are you giving me up?"
Madam Diana got into acting, "They're your mates Mary. Here, I don't hold anyone that wanted to go to a better place back. Lord Lucian donated 500 Million to the house and offered a trip to the Maldives as appreciation. I accepted a Billion dollar and a new apartment from Lord Lucifer. They've proved they can take care of you and what they gave me is more than what I paid to get you, so…."
"Madam…" I paused. Staring into her eyes searching for answers if our act will get to the stoic men watching our drama.
But it really shocked me that they're offering that much for someone like me.
At first it seems as if we failed and I was about to burst it that I'm going with the both of them when Lucifer sands up and grabbed my wrist regardless of his brother.
"You're coming with me" he said in a low commanding tone and made to exit even though I still stood rooted with shock.
The room was silent for a while and I didn't move, I was waiting for Lucifer's decision, will he fight for me too?
Lucifer turned back, "What…?"
"I remembered I came here first brother?" Lucian finally said something. "Also, I met her first and you get to know her thanks to me"
My raced with panic. What if they're going to fight. But I held my breath and waited while Madam Diana stands aside watching the tirade.
To my surprise, Lucifer was calm. He made to leave with me again and this time, I don't know what made me lift my leg and tried following him but Lucian jerked off and snapped me hand from him, "Take your hands off my mate!!"
I jolted with shock. Exactly what I wanted to see.
Lucifer looked back to his brother and for a while they stared at each other without words but I could tell the tension between them, how tense it was.
"Em…. My Lords?" Madam Diana broke into their suspense, "You have to hear my terms and conditions first"
"She's also mine!" Lucifer said finally to his brother. Ignoring Madam Diana. "She belongs to us, not to only you!"
Lucian's gaze hardened in anger. I guess this gave Lucifer the boldness to continue, "Oh yes. You can fume and hit me like you always do. Stop pretending like you're tolerant, you suck at it"
"Lucifer!!!" Lucian raged angry and raised his fist. My eyes widened immediately and gasped. His eyes slowly to me and he seems to be ashamed of me seeing him like this so he lowered his hanod. "Stop being quiet too. You're no better"
"She knows who I am already" Lucifer replied with a terse tone. Then he pulled my hand again, "She belongs to us! Not to you alone! You know the way to my house, I'm keeping her"
With that, Lucifer stepped out of the office and I go after him. But before that, Madam Diana rushed. "The condition!" Lucifer stopped without turning and I wonder she planned this.
"She's not just a prostitute to me. She's my daughter. You Lords have just one month! Until one month, I decide if she leaves or stay!"
After she said that, Lucifer stepped out without any words.
"Lucifer!!" I heard Lucian's growl and it tore my heart hearing him sound that way but served him right for pretending to be nice when he's not.
On our way out, we met Fiona who'd just tied her blindfold and we both stared at each other for a long time before she finally muttered, "Your Mates are very rich. Don't forget us when you get out there"
I smiled softly, "Yes sis. Kick your mate in the ass and tell him you're more than a whore"
Fiona's hand brushed past mine and left while I continued with Lucifer.
As he held my hand, my mind keeps re-echoning that, I'm finally free.
Not free to go outside, but I'm now a freeman.
Lucifer opened the door to his expensive Maybach and I entered. I hesitated for a while. The momenmu skin touched the leather chair, I know it has finally happened.
No more gags. No more fake moans, fake smile, fake happiness. No more blindfolds and Madman Diana's scoldings too…. I'm just me — Marilyn Paltan.
He comes in after me and when he started the engine, Lucian came out of the building and hope into his own car and off we go.
Fiona's words echoed in my mind, "Don't forget us Mary"
And just like that, I was no more a PROSTITUTE!
