The Stripper ~ Jb

Justin's POV

"Sir, we have arrived." My driver, Adam, said through the window.

"Thank you Adam," giving him a small smile. Getting out of the car, I carefully pick up a sleeping Alison and make my way inside the hotel. Getting into the elevator, I take the time to look at Alison. Alison, or should I say Barbara. I still can't believe that happened to her. My heart hurts just thinking about what she had to go through, and how much she struggled and suffered.

Suddenly, anger rises in me as I think about how that bastard is the reason why she's like this. Fragile and scared. He destroyed her when she should of been treated like a queen. I swear, I'm going to find that fucker and make sure he pays for what he has done. "I promise." I whisper to Alison as I gently tuck away a strand of hair that has fallen in front of her face.

She stirred for a moment before snuggling into me chest. A permanent frown drawn on her face, making me mirror it. You can clearly see all the pain she's been through and all I wanted to do was take it all away.

How can I be such an asshole to her? I had no right to dig into her personal background, but I had to. I had to know what she was hiding from me. To be honest, I don't regret it. I'm glad I did because if I didn't, she never would of told me. Now that I know, I can finally help her and be there for her when she needs it.

The sound of the elevator doors opening brought me back to reality. Making sure Alison was secure in my arms, I walk into my penthouse. Did mention I own this hotel? Sorry, off topic. I walk through the living toward the stairs. With each step I took up, Alison would lightly bounce in my arms. I was afraid she would wake up from it. She begins to stir again causing me to freeze. She groans and grabs a hand full of my suit jacket.

"Justin?" She whimpers, trying to get comfortable in my arms.

"Shh. You're ok. I'm right here." I coo. The sound of my voice causes the corners of her lips twitch upwards slightly before falling back to sleep. I smile at her adorableness, finally making it to our room. I open the door with my foot since my arm were a little occupied. Once I finally manage to open the door after a couple of struggles, I make my way toward the bed and gently place her on it.

When I see that she's still asleep, I walk toward the dressers and take out one of of my T-shirts. Walking back to the the bed, I carefully start taking off Alison's heels. I frown when I see the bottoms of her feet slightly red and swollen from wearing them. Moving up her body, I gently turn her on her side so I can have access to the zipper on the dress, slowly unzipping it, making sure to caress the new skin that has been relieved with my finger tips. Once I successfully unzipped the dress, I processed to pull the dress over head, leaving her in white matching lace bra and underwear. I stand back and take in her beauty. I wonder how someone can be so breathtaking and perfect without trying. My awestruck soon turns into horror when my eyes land on a certain part of her body.

Small white scars are displayed over her stomach and sides. The scars are so faint that you would have to be looking really hard to notice them. My hand reaches out instinctively and brush the scarred skin. Anger and sadness build up in me as my finger tips feel the raised skin from the scars. Not being able control myself, I lean down and gently kiss every scar, thinking they would all go away if I did. 

Tears prick my eyes as mentally count the scars I kiss away. "How can someone do this to you? What did you do to deserve this?" I shake my head to get rid of the imagines that sick bastard did to her. Once I'm done, I strip down to my boxers and lay in bed next to her. I wrap my arms around her and pull her toward me. I lean down and place a gently kiss on her forehead. "I promise that bastard will pay." I whisper.

I'll make sure of it.
