Me.

He craved me?

He could have any girl swoon over his dangerously gorgeous self. Anyone he wanted. They'd drool and bend over backward at his every command. No hesitation- just pure lust .

So why me?

What was he trying to get at? I couldn't help but feel that he was just trying to be nasty to jungkook. Maybe he was using me to settle a past score with kookie. I did not want to be used. I was not some doormat. I didn't need these men stepping all over me. I had my own share of problems and drama to deal with and men were not on my priority list.

If taehyung thinks he can turn me into a sex slave then he was definitely delusional. I was not a rag doll. No man can break a girl who's heart had been broken first by her father. Nothing would ever surprise me. Men are good for nothing pricks. They only want to receive without giving.

I mean- that was my perception of men until Jeon Jungkook. He was different. Loving and gentle . He loved me and I wasn't going to allow some newbie to ruin that .

"Girl-", Chloe broke my train of thought. "Why are you always drowning in make up ?", she snickered while adjusting her pushup bra. "It brings out my eyes", I whisper. She hummed and continued to doll herself up. I stare at my reflection- long enough to see the hidden bruises. "Are you working the vip booth tonight?", she pout , pressing the black lipstick to her lips. "I got bartender duty with Orlando ", I give a smile while she huffed. "Lucky you. I got 2 guys waiting to fuck me at once-", she stretched her little body before letting out a yawn.

"I haven't slept in 3 days. My parents are driving me crazy too. I'm only 29 - why should I move out? Do you live with your folks?", she asked and I swallowed the lump in my throat.  "Yeah-", I whisper, turning back to my reflection. I live with the sins of my parents.

To think- I had gotten off from my day job , just to find myself sitting in Mr Jones den. He was the man who had lent my father the massive some of cash which he squandered and now I was currently paying back monthly.

The men who worked for him were eyeing me as if I were the last piece of meat. I wasn't afraid but I was uncomfortable.

"There she is-", his hoarse voice resounded and I am about to stand to greet when he hands land on my shoulders. "Sit darling", he instruct and made his way to sit across me. "Mr Jones ", I give a forced smile and he returned it. "How can I help you today?", he placed a cigarette between his yellowed teeth. One of his men run to light it for him. "I don't need any help. I'm here to pay a sum toward the loan-", i dig into my bag. 

"A sum?" , he puffed out smoke , staring at me. "Yes a sum- I'm sorry but I haven't really managed to earn alot of money this month,  so 500 dollars Is all I have ", I lift out the envelope but his men wait for his command. I swallowed hard - knowing he was a very fussy man when it came to money. "You didn't make enough? So you weren't fucking hard enough to earn my money?", his once low voice beginning to pick up. "I am sorry-", I furrow my brows and he gestured for one of his men to take the envelope. The brown haired man snatched it and handed it to Mr Jones,  who tore it open and counted 500.

"I'm going to need that other 500 tomorrow-", he tossed the money aside and my jaw almost hit the ground. "Tomorrow? That's not possible Mr Jones. Please give me till the end of this week-", I beg but he shook his head.  "No more exceptions for you", he snapped and I hush.

"Tomorrow-", he lift a warning finger and I nod. "Get out now-", he snobbed as I stood. It was quick but I saw him give his man the signal right before he swung his hand , smacking me hard on my cheek. I squeak,  almost crashing into the ground,  luckily the couch broke my fall. "Will you ever bring me Less than the agreed arrangement?" , he questioned and I shake my head vigorously, tears streaming down my cheeks. "Are you sure?", he nodded to his man who yanked me onto my feet and slapped me again. "I won't!", I scream. "Good -", Mr Jones clapped and the strong man released me.
