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!

"Okay let's talk tomorrow, my desperate arrogant boss must have sent me more work through email and I am in the middle of the street so I have to go," she said while rolling her eyes. She was standing in front of the bridge. She hung up the phone and turned around. The horror was standing alive and well in front of her. Her breath stopped and her very own voice was surrounding her head. "Desperate, arrogant" She felt her head spinning around. He was staring at her expressionlessly. He walked slowly towards her while she walked backward. "Desperate? Arrogant? Am I?" he said in a very deep voice. She felt her voice had gone to hell. She was trying to speak but no sound, just words. "I think you have not seen how desperate I can be" he brought his lips near to her ear and said in a whisper. He grabs her and put her on his shoulder. She felt his shoulder blades pinned hardly on her left rib. Warning: The spelling and grammar are bad but I'll try to edit it once the book is completed.

"You think I don't have control over you?" He asks darkly while looking at me like he could rip me to pieces. I stare at him with fear, "I-" "Every fucking night, you lay under me, screaming my name at the top of your lungs, making it pretty clear that I own you." He cuts me off. "All the pride and dignity leaving your body with just one touch from me," He whispers while hovering over me. "You lost your rights the moment you snuck into my fucking plane." He says harshly making me wince. "You may be my wife, but you are also my doll, I can do whatever the fuck I want with you and you can't do a damn thing about it, just sit, look pretty, and fucking obey." Each word he says is like a glass that pierces me one by one, making sure I bleed a rainfall. - She was forced against her will. There was nothing she could do to avoid the plans he had for her.

Indecorous by rosieredness

(18+ EXPLICIT CONTENT) "Attract a lot of attention, huh beautiful?" His voice hit me like a wall, absurdly catching me off guard. It was deep, sensual, something any girl (or boy) could melt over. I was sort of speechless, yet trying my best to appear unafflicted. "Only the wrong ones." That was definitely drunken me talking, as I didn't usually have that much confidence. His lips twitched up into a smirk, expressing that he understood my comment. "Does that mean that I'm in that category?" My palms began to grow sweaty and my heart rate picked up, but otherwise my body remained relaxed, appearing completely fine. It similar to when you're on autopilot, completely withdrawn due to intoxication. "I suppose not," I crossed my arms, putting on this seductive persona just for him. This fueled his smirk, about to murmur another comment before I cut him off. "You'll have to show me, though." *** Amelia Hollis was a 23-year-old writer at one of the local publishing companies, assisting a very handsome man and writing articles left and right. Her and her best friend, Aviary, lived together in a cute little apartment off the central part of the city, yearning to create new memories and important moments. Amelia always lived for the moments, taking in every little detail and savoring it like it was her favorite meal. She was an optimist, hoping to change peoples lives with her dreams. James Vallette was a 34-year-old CEO, building his company from dirt with the help of his brother. He was a realist, not really having time to deal with dreams or even love. He knew this the night he laid eyes on Amelia. It was only casual; what harm could a one-night stand do? Oh yeah, he's her dad's boss.

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.
