Stella's pov

Pain.

The pain which was over for few months was now back and much worse than before. The pain is not only physical but a emotional one too. The heart wrenching and unbearable one.

Happiness is nothing but a distant memory for me. Half of my soul was already destroyed and another half left when Lizzie realized our truth. My truth.

That my struggles won't be enough for a good life.

I tried to wake up myself from the bed but pain was accompanying since the morning.

I wanted to call a maid but I don't want anyone to see me in pain.

I dragged my body towards the edge of bed. I put my hand on floor & another scream left my mouth. I forgot there were bandages all over my plam.

I limbed towards the washroom and dropped the covers as I was desperately looking for painkillers.

Midway, I saw my appearance in mirror but nothing shocked me. I looked like.....

".... a whore stella." I spoke.

"That's what who you were...and the only thing you can ever become to Roman. Or to anyone." Nothing shock me now. I have accepted my reality.

Taking a hot shower not caring about my old scars and new wounds. All in my head I heard screaming. From orphanage. From Madame. From Sirs. From Ladies. From Roman. Everyone.

I am hating my self. I turn off shower and grabbed a towel, pat dried myself before putting some ointments.

"Much better" I said before returning to room.

The room was now spotlessly clean and bed was already made. There was breakfast kept on table looked exquisite. I wonder how much that cost. I sat on couch & drank the juice.

I popped some fruits into my mouth when the door suddenly opened revealing a guard and Rose with Purbear. But what caught my attention was her stained checks. Was she crying.

She come running towards me and put into a tight hug.

"Ouch. Rose baby easy." I told her.

"Are you hurt steally" concern was lacing her words.

"No baby." I replied.

"Sir instructed both of you to stay inside the room until he returns from some business." With that the guard left.

Business or mafia.

I turned all my attention to my angel who was looking at me with big doe eyes.

"What happened angel did somebody hurt you? Did somebody said something." I asked.

She looked down for few seconds before speaking her thoughts.

"Steally"

"Yes baby"

"Do you think..Ma..Madame will return and lock us in baswment."

"No...no..no...she will not." I assured her. I will become a faithful wife or whore to Roman before dragging my sister back to that life.

"Rose did something big bad happened baby. Tell sissy." Please speak up rose you are scaring me.

"Today...when daddy was feeding me yuck veggies that new mean lady showted at me." She explained.

Guess I'm responsible for this too.

"Rose. Baby" I sighed "she came from a long journey...so sometimes adults get exhausted and let there frustration on someone. They didn't want to do it purposely."
