Chapter 5
Before I lost consciousness, I saw Evan take a casual sip of his drink.]
“Keep her bra on when you grab her tits,” he said coldly. “And don’t get too rough.“]
“Don’t worry, Evan. Once this drug wears off, she won’t remember a thing about tonight!“]
I woke up in a hospital bed, the dull aches throughout my body filling me with despair.]
Evan pushed open the door, his sadistic sneer from last night nowhere to be seen. In its place was the charming, tender boyfriend act he’d perfected over our years together.]
“Teeling better? You passed out after just two sips of alcohol last night.”
Behind him, Ravena pouted dramatically, putting on a show as she felt my forehead.]
“Don’t worry, my brother. Thalia is fine now.”
“0
Istared blankly at the ceiling while flashes of last night kept coming back to me in bits and pieces.
The dress I had been wearing was gone–torn to shreds by someone while I was forced to act like a pet for their entertainment.
Evan said something else, but I didn’t catch it.After a while, he finally left with Ravena.]
“Get some rest. I’ll come back later. If you want anything to eat, just tell Ravena.“[]
I lay rigid in bed for a long time, the memories of last night’s humiliation attacking me relentlessly, leaving me nowhere to hide.
Eventually, I got up and found my phone among the belongings on the sofa, along with my dress with its torn back.]
Someone had posted pictures from last night all over the internet. There I was barking like a dog–every detail captured in high definition and uploaded onto the Internet.
My half–exposed dress, the chorus of laughter, the dim lighting.[]
Although the posts were quickly deleted for violating community guidelines, many people still saved them.]
The original poster even left a message saying videos were available through private message.[]
My personal information had also been leaked.[]
Vulgar text messages flooded in, and my phone rang constantly with calls, the noise making me sick to my stomach.]
“How much for a night?“[]
“What’s your address? Where can I find you?“]
‘Do you do it for free?“]
“Got more videos? How can you handle so many guys? Are you so bitch?”
I stared vacantly at the disgusting comments before wrapping my phone in the torn dress and throwing it in the bathroom trash can.[]
Before leaving the hospital, I borrowed a hat from a hospital janitor.[]
Top afraid to take a taxi, 1 walked three miles back to my apartment]
I found our rarely used backup phone and called my parents. They sounded anxious.]
My heart ached, but I couldn’t even cry
“Mom, Dad, did my application get approved? Can I come to you now? I don’t want to wait anymore![]
Chapter 5
My parents were silent–they’d probably already seen everything about me online.
I felt like someone being publicly executed, stripped naked before everyone’s eyes to be cursed, Keithed, and humiliated without a shred of dignity.]
“Sweetheart, come to us. Mom and Dad will take care of everything.”
Before boarding my flight, a shrill ringtone interrupted my thoughts.[]
Seeing the caller ID, I immediately blocked the number and turned off the phone.[]
I successfully escaped all the drama, and because my phone was off, I had no idea about the chaos unfolding at the hospital.[]
Evan sat on the empty hospital bed, his face dark as coal. Everyone who had participated in last night’s events stood nervously to the side, including Ravena.[]
After a long silence, the man who had grabbed my wrist yesterday burst into the room, breathless
“E–Evan, we’ve got a problem! I checked–that drug you got doesn’t actually cause memory loss after waking up! I think we… we went too far!“]]
