They both just glare at me.
"Do you think i don't know when someone is listening, little girl?" Lucius hisses. I know he only calls me that when he's angry with me.
"Did- did you hear everything?" Theo asks.
"Yes.." my voice trails off. Lucius just signs.
"I don't have time for this shit. Amora, come with me." He drags me by my arms to his room. Shit shit shit.
"Lucius what are you doing?" His eyes were clouded with anger. This isn't good. He told me that he could hurt me, and I believe him.
"You can't just spy on people. Actions don't go without consequences, kitten." He is back to kitten. That's at least good.
"It dosent even affect you..." I realize I shouldn't have said that.
"Yes it does. It was a private conversation and when someone is in love with my fiancé it is my issue."
"What are going to do to me?" I mutter. He just looks at me.
"Come here." He orders. He looks really good. His hair is middle parted, with his abs peeking through his shirt. His blue eyes are starting at me.
I slowly walk over to him and he grabs my waist. He flips me over and I end up on my stomach on the bed. He's going to spank me. This is probably the most embarrassing experience I've ever had.
I wince as he gives my ass a light smack. Then a harder one, then an even harder one. I whimper in pain.
"You deserve it. Trying to spy on me, pfft." He continues to smack my ass. God, it hurts so bad.
"Pleas-please stop." I stammer. He just laughs. I'm convinced this man is a lunatic.
Eventually, he exhausts himself. I turn around, and can clearly see a tent in his pants. Why is he hot and bothered? Did he do that for his own enjoyment?
"That should teach you kitten. Don't stick your nose where it dosent belong." He then proceeds to shove me out the door.

It's been two days. Two fucking days since Lucius spanked me. Two fucking days since Theo inadvertently confessed his love for me.It's been literal hell.
Raina and Theo's flight to London wasn't for two more days, so we were stuck with the awkwardness. Raina wanted me to be with Theo. Of course she did. Then she would get Lucius all to herself.
That isn't how it works, sweetie.
I tried to bring it up, but Theo didn't want to talk about it. He said that the rejection hurt too bad. Especially losing to that asshole.
I don't blame him. Lucius is the last person I would ever want to be married to.
As for me and Lucius, we avoid each other. We skip the lesson. Which makes Miss. Hollows angry, but I couldn't give a shit. It's better than dealing with him.
I'm sitting with Raina and Theo watching a movie. The movie is a classic romcom about high school. Boy is quarterback, girl is nerd, boom they fall in love.
I wish it was that simple. I wish I didn't have to marry a manwhore who punishes me for being curious.
"This movie is so stupid." Theo says. Of course he thinks it stupid. He seems to find anything and everything to complain about.
"Shush, this is my favorite part." Raina says. She's watched basically every cheesy romance movie.
The two kiss in the rain under the bleachers. Ah, to have human affection. I could get it with Theo, but then I think I would get much worse than an ass beating from Lord Poopypants.
"I agree with Theo. Turn this shit off. This is the last thing I need." Raina rolls her eyes. Theo just looks away.
"Will you two stop it? I'm tired of us being awkward!" Raina whines.
"You don't the HALF of it Raina. My life isn't all sunshine and rainbows. I know you've always wanted to be a princess, but it's a terrible job. My job description is marry and give children to a man that I never wanted. So I'm entitled to the occasional bad fucking day." That should shut her up. I'm honestly so sick of her bullshit.
"I know you have a rough life. But see my side, your marrying my celebrity crush! Your going to be the queen of Monaco. I think I'm allowed to be at least a little jealous." Raina replies. Theo just sits there.
"You celebrity crush? Ha! Do you wanna know what Lucius did after he caught me spying? He spanked me! He fucking spanked my ass!" I started to cry. This was all too much.
Theo looked very angry.
"He did what? That sick bastard! I'll kill him! " Theo yells. No no no. He can't do that. Lucius will hurt me more if he does that.
"Why didn't you tell us? I would have beat him up for you!" Raina rubs my shoulder. I shouldn't have told them.
"Please don't do anything to him. He'll hurt me more and you know how strong he is. He'll hurt you too Theo. Your no match for him." Theo nods. He's beginning to cool down.
"Theo, I know the feelings you have for me and I wish I could reciprocate them. But I can't. So let's just continue being friends." I say. He looks at my lips and then back again. Raina winks and leaves.
"Okay. But don't think I'll ever stop loving you Alden. Once you can get away from Lucius, come to me." I nod and give him a hug. His muscles, while not as big as Lucius's, comfort me.
We sit like that for a while. Just hugging. It's good to know he still wants to be my friend.
"Now, let's find Raina and go check out all of the ice cream in the kitchen."
