Throes Of Love.

Chapter One.

Unedited!!

Alfonso glared at the red-haired beauty that wore next to nothing. She was seductively dancing with a man, who had his hands all over her. He wondered how she got into such an exclusive club. No doubt another wealthy man had fallen into her trap. The girl was a tease. For two months straight, she had been extorting thousands of dollars from him. He hadn't even touched her because she lied that she was a virgin and wanted to wait. Somewhere deep down he had been prepared to settle with her. Right then, he wondered how someone so hot and sexy could be a virgin. He was blinded by the supposed love for her.

He had been searching for her. She had been the one to steal his gold wristwatch, phone, and the 100 dollar bills in his wallet after she drugged him. A gold-digging deceptive snake was what she was. He wondered if she had lied about her name too.

She was going to get what was coming to her so much that she would not know what hit her. It was like he didn't have more than enough but he hated when he met gold diggers like herself and the prick that impregnated his sister that was now his brother in law.

He was going to get her just where he wanted her that there would be no way she would escape. He watched as he sipped on his whiskey. He was not even paying attention to the girl on his lap wearing only a thong.

Chanel had messed with the wrong man.

One month later.....

Chanel smiled at her father who lay on the hospital bed. He looked so frail and tired. She was still paying the hospital bills. The cancer was so bad. She hated that he had to go through this. He had done so much for her and now look at him. He was dying slowly before her eyes.

"Now don't look at me like that, honey. " Joshua said caressing his daughter's hair. She had grown up so much and he could tell how much she was fighting to keep him in this hospital.

"I'm not. " Chanel said, trying to keep her tears at bay. She didn't want to break down in front of him.

"You know you don't have to do all you're doing for me. You have your life to live. You're just 24 darling." Joshua said, letting out a cough.

"I know daddy, but this is what I'm happy doing and what life would I have without you. " She said taking his hand in hers. " You will be fine. " She said trying to reassure herself.

"Your mother would be so proud of you. We both love you so much. " Joshua said. He knew he was going to fall asleep anytime soon. He could feel it.

Chanel couldn't hold it in then. She remembered her mother's death like yesterday when she was twenty. It had broken her and her father but it drew them closer. Now her dad was sick, dying of cancer.

"Don't cry, honey. Your mother would be proud of you." Her father repeated once again before he fell asleep.

That was not really what made her cry. The fact that she had to cling onto those rich proud men that only thought for money. The way she hit her money, either drugging or extorting the men. She was glad none of them had come back for her.

The one that got to her most what a tall burly Italian. He always looked dangerous and she was always scared when they were alone but he was stinking rich that he didn't know what to do with his money. Alfonso De Rosa. There was no way she could forget him. She ended it because she felt there was more coming from it and she didn't want all that.

Chanel picked up herself and kissed her father's head before making her way to her home. At least they had a home to their name.

The first thing she always did when she got home was to check their money. The money she would pay next months hospital bills with. She did.
