This was what I first wrote down to show what I wanted this story to be like. It may or may not end up an accurate description.
Set a woman in the Gatsby era. Write her into a world of sophisticated people and class with a hint of scandal. Show the side of people we are not so proud of but that we have never been able to hide. Be unapologetic. Make her make mistakes. Show her learn from them and grow. Make her start as a woman on the streets, a prostitute. A young and foolish girl who hides behind makeup and a silver tongue, fooling old men into letting her be their favorite toy. Show her fall, and get back up. Show her shame and humiliation. Make her stubborn enough to persevere. Make her change into a woman with a backbone. Make her be the woman you've always wanted to be. Show that life is ruthless, but make her be the woman who is smart enough to keep going because she has nothing left to lose.

Why, don't you speak at all? And you should really close your mouth; it is impolite to stare like that." Ivy called out to her from the doorway of the cottage. "Lilly, if you want him to speak, you must first cease speaking." Both of the women were laughing at the children, and Lilly blushed at the comment. "Sorry!

𝗕𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗳𝗲 =========================== He walked in and locked the door. "The only time you talk in this whole fucking week is to a little boy?" He walked towards me and started to remove his blazer and undoing his pants. "What are you doing?" I asked strongly yet I was internally trembling. "Fucking you" And with that he grabs me, turns me around, grabs my hands and pushed me down the table behind me. Before I could process, he lifted my dress, and in a second his dick entered my surprisingly wet pussy. He wasn't sweet at all. He was harsh and I tried to not moan so that I don't embarrass myself in front of others and so that he doesn't hear a voice from me. "The way people looked at you pissed me off so fucking much" I held on the table sides as he was ruthless on his thrusts and I started to cry at the pleasure and humiliation that was building up. "I just wanted to remove everyone's eyes" he said and I cried more. His thrusts were so hard that my legs lifted from the floor and were in air, my pussy was at the mercy of his dick. He bends over me and I felt a tear in my dress. He removed my hair from the back, and whispered, "Scream out loud, don't hide those pretty little moans from me, let others also know to whom does this pussy belong to" ======================== ||FAST PACED BOOK||Complete
