Crack. Came a resounding slap to her face, reddening her smooth cheek.
"Your mother is gone now. You will do as I say Colette." Her father said in an eerily even voice, just the slightest twitch of his ice blue eyes giving away the anger he fostered towards her.
Her brother watched from the corner, not coming to her defense.
And so, she did as he said, for the next fourteen years.
*
After the disappearance of her mother, Colette Addington finds herself in the midst of her abusive father and unconcerned brother, who make her existence a living hell. When her father trades her hand in marriage for monetary gains, Colette is ready to give up on a life that only gets worse...that is...till she meets Atticus Emsworth, neurosurgeon and next in line to inherit his father's multi-million dollar empire. Atticus is completely disillusioned by Miss Addington, who seems to be a typical social climber, with only her looks in her favour. But as time goes by, Atticus finds that he has seriously misjudged the junior Addington who seems to have much darker secrets that he could have ever imagined.
Can Atticus ever unravel the mystery that is Colette? Will Colette ever find solace? Read to find out!

No nodding, no shaking heads no sign language because we both are very capable of hearing and speaking, okay?" I was about to nod when I realized in time. "Yes...?"

I belong to a stranger (PUBLISHING) Belong Book 1 - Unedited
WARNING: THIS BOOK IS CUTE, HOT, SWEET, SEXY, ROMANTIC, MUSSY, DRAMATIC, EMOTIONAL, INTENSE. Beware. EXTRACT (SUMMARY BELOW): “Like father, like son” The truth of the words hit me then. A cruel smile caught up with me. Somewhere at the back of my head, I couldn’t believe what I had just said, but I refused to let the guilt creep into me. If I called him huge before, I didn’t know what I should be calling him now. His entire six and a half foot frame began expanding animistic-ally. Charging like an angry bull, he reached me in two long strides. His eyes budging in fury. As suddenly as he started, he stopped. “You said what?” “Monster” I whispered back. But unwillingly my eyes dropped on the floor. No he did not scare me, but I could not bring myself to look into his eyes after what I just said to him. Nonetheless, he was a monster. Next thing I know, his large rough hands pulls my waist to his torso. Shocked, I looked at him. My eyes flared at his, my eyebrows raised in aftershocks. I flinched at his touch, but his arm kept me in place. I couldn’t no longer read his eyes. He used his free arm to grip my chin and pull it until my neck stretched back, until I looked directly at him. “Say that again” he repeated. ***########*** Curiosity kills the cat.
