03. Changing Reina

Reina's POV

"I'm sorry." I mumbled and I gently placed the golden frame back to its original place.

"I wasn't like that, Reina. I wasn't such an arrogant dick. I had feelings. I loved her. With my everything. She was my sun. A reason to wake up in the morning. But then he came. It was like he put a spell on her, like he possesed her with his charm and she gave in. She loved him. Maybe more than she ever loved me. I let her go. I couldn't do anything else. I never meant to prison her in a life she was miserable in. I let her go." Louis lowered his gaze. A tear slipped the corner of his eyes but being the tough guy he is -or he wanted to be- he wipped it away and moved towards me.

"I know you're scared, Reina but I need your help." His voice sounded like pleading me.

"What you're asking me to do is really risky. What if I get caught? He's going to kill me..." I said finally realising what I'm going to put my self into.

"I have your back. You can trust me." Louis looked me dead in the eye. His blue eyes glistering.

"I need some time to think..." I lowered my gaze.

"You don't understand! We have no time!" He raised his voice.

"I'm going to provide you a better life, Reina. You're finally going to leave from that shitty place. You'll stop selling your body in order to pay your rent. You're going to live in a new apartment right up the town. You're going to have your own car, new clothes, money. You just have to make him fall head over heels for you. You need to make him weak. You're only going to inform me about all the deals he makes. I'm going to destroy him financially and you're going to break his heart. Everything he did to me is going to come back to him." Louis' voice was full of anger.

His life goal was to destroy Zayn and even if I wasn't going to help him, he was going to find a way to do it.

"When is this opening party?" I asked still my eyes not meeting his.

"In two days." Louis answered calmly.

"I can't make him fall in love with me in one night. It's going to take a while..." I trailled off.

"So that means you're going to do it?" Louis looked down at me with a hopefull look on his eyes. 

I simply nodded not really in mood to talk about it further. I bit my botttom lip and I let out a soft sigh.

"So what I have to do now?"

Louis gave me a sweet smile and grabbed my hand gently guiding me upstairs.

Louis' POV

"Do you want anything else mr. Tomlinson?" The maid asked as she placed the cup of my usual tea in front of me.

"Is miss Julles up yet?" I asked taking a long sip of my tea.

"No mr. Tomlinson." She shook her head.

"Thanks. You can now leave."

I got up grabbing the silver tray and placing a plate of pancakes, a cup of tea and some cubes of sugar and I made my way upstairs to the room she was resting.

I gently pushed the door open, careful not to make enough noise, and I placed the tray on the nearest table. I opened the curtains letting the sunlight burst into the dark room. Her small figure was tugged in the soft white sheets and her black locks were falling messilly to different directions. I smiled softly as I heard a soft snore leaving her lips and I sat next to her on the bed.
