"I don't care"
He raises an eyebrow.
"You're feisty aren't you?" He says
I hold back an eye-roll.
"Tell me, Marianna, why do you think you are here?" He asks, as he cunningly smirks.
I sigh.
"Because my dad is an addict" I say
He chuckles, his loud voice echoing around the room.
"What's so funny?" I snap
His face turns blank.
"You know, you should really watch what you say to me, little girl." he threatens
He suddenly stands up and only then do I realize how tall he was.
At least 6'4.
I gulp as he begins walking around his desk and making his way towards me. He eyes me from head to toe, lust clouding his eyes.
A sudden fear pricks at my heart as I take a step back.
"Where's the rest of the money?" He asks
"W-what?" I stutter
"What? You honestly thought you would be worth one thousand dollars?" He mocks
I feel my heart ache as I look down.
I hear him tsk.
"Little girl, you're worth two hundred dollars at best. I could get any girl I want. For free. You're no exception" he says
I feel my heart ache a little more.
"Now, answer my question. Where is the rest of my money?" he asks, no humor evident in his voice.
"I-I don't have it" I say
Silence.
I suddenly feel a presence in front of me but I don't look up.
He grabs me by the chin and lifts it up. I meet his incredibly blue orbs.
But all I saw was anger.
"Don't play with me, little girl. Where is my money?" He snaps
I cower from his intense gaze and look down.
"I don't k_"
He wraps his hand around my neck and slams me against the wall.
Attempting to loosen his hold, I feel warm tears glide down my cheeks.
"Please" I struggle to say
His face slightly falls for a quick instant before his cold gaze returns.
He lets me go and I drop onto the marble floor, attempting to catch my breath.
"I will kill him. HE THINKS HE CAN FUCK ME OVER" He yells in a thick Spanish accent
I flinch at his sudden outburst and stumble before standing back up.
"Please, don't. I'll do anything" I cry
He abruptly turns to face me and scowls.
"You are worth nothing, little girl. Your father will have what's coming for him."He snaps
Without another glance in my direction, he slams open the door.
"Marcus, escort her to my room and make sure she doesn't try to escape" He snaps
One of the guards that was outside walks in and I furiously shake my head no.
"No, please. Ple_"
