THE SHOW

Chapter 3: I am Lust

The paradox of vengefulness

Is that it makes men dependent

Upon those who have harmed them,

Believing that their release from pain

Will come only when their tormentors suffer.”

Chapter 3: I am Lust

I woke up in a plush bed; it was queen size endowed in velvet red.

The wall is painted in bloody red with black rim at the top and bottom area. As I look up , I saw  mirrors in different sizes as the ceiling.

I found myself donning a different set of clothes; I am wearing black and red baby doll lingerie with ruffles at the bottom.

My blonde hair was curled into perfection, cascading to my back.

As I stared more at myself, I have deep set of black eye shadows, heavy mascara, that make my eyes seem sultry and my lip was made luscious with the  bright red lipstick.

As I continued to survey myself in the vanity mirror, it was evident, I was not the plain Jane that I used to be...I looked sultry and sensual.

I continued to stare at myself still mesmerized; I even pinch myself just  to make sure I wasn’t dreaming; that this is me the woman that I am seeing right now.

“Ouch” I said as I pinched myself, so there goes my theory, I am not dreaming

Suddenly I felt a presence with me, no longer alone in the room.

It was the dark hair hunk of a God that I followed a while ago. He placed both of his hands on my shoulders and whispered in his husky voice to my ears.

“You are beautiful Lust” as he grazes his fingers towards the side of my face.

He continued to utter “This face, gorgeous, piercing green eyes, which can render any man senseless by just your mere look, these luscious lips, that will drive any man senseless once they get a taste of you”

Everywhere he touches, sends shivers all over my body.

We are still looking at the mirror with his eyes still locked with mine as he grazed his fingers lower, towards my behaving chest “This body of yours, the alluring body of yours, you can make any man do your will”

“But how can I do that, I am just Cass”

“Ah, your old name, love”. He then turned me around and cupped my face

“I know what happened to you, No need to ask me how I know but I just do, but what I can offer you is the thing that you want most right now”

I looked at him, staring at his eyes, as if I am trying to figure him out, ”If you really know everything, tell me what I really want ?”

He gave me a coy smile and then uttered  “REVENGE”

“On Ally, your friend who betrayed you”

“On Ian, you lover who played you”

“On Jake who took your innocence”.

“How can I trust you? what if you are also playing with me? Like what they all did”

“I do not want you to trust me, I want you to trust no one, you only have yourself and only you to rely on, and that is your first lesson”

He then turned my body back to look at myself in the mirror, I am offering you a choice to fight or just be the dirt that they think you are”

“You can be so much more mi amore, so much more, you are going to be their downfall, and you will have your sweet revenge. You will become my LUST”

As I looked at myself hard I finally said with confidence “I am LUST”

Minutes passed and he left me alone.

I change clothes after he left, I didn’t even ask him name, how stupid and rude of me.

I just wore, a denim black shorts and White singlet, and slip on some pumps.

A woman that looks like a Adriana Lima, the Victoria’s secret supermodel asked me to sit, she said that she will teach me everything that I should know.

“This mansion is a special club, we call it The Show there is a rule here Nobody can enter not unless invited, from now on you will be known here as LUST”

“I will be teaching you on how to become her”.

Lust is an emotion or feeling of intense desire in the body. The lust can take any form such as the lust for knowledge, the lust for sex or the lust for power. Seduction is a type of lust and that will be our first lesson.

And by the way dear, my Name is ENVY..
