Chapter 20
RYN Ever since the death threat, I decided it was best to keep a low profile until I could come up with a strategy. This meant avoiding the Princes as much as I could and making sure not to be alone in deserted places for too long. When I was sure I wasn't being followed, I moved my belongings out of the boiler room and with the new wad of cash Theon gave me. I was able to use a taxi to transport it to the dorm. That aside. I got myself a brand new phone and Sadie was the first I called with my new number. After catching up, I also decided to search for an apartment to rent in time for graduation while also looking for jobs online. Meanwhile, at the training center, I did my best not to be alone with Coach Dutton and he took out his frustration on me by making me do extra laps, Aside from that, everything else went smoothly.
I eventually found a
I a job at an expensive bar hotel when one evening during a walk, I witnessed a girl being kicked out. According to the argument that occurred between her and her former boss, it was obvious she was a thief and deserved to be fired. So 1 approached the man and asked if I could fill the vacant spot. He took one good look at me and smirked. "You'd do real good here."
Next
thing I knew, I was going through the back door, submitting my ID and filling forms to be a waitress while assimilating every single rule and obligation of the establishment. Shortly after, I was given a uniform to wear. "Make sure you wear this and wear good makeup. You'll get tips! He grinned in a way that made an unpleasant shiver run down my spine.
I looked down at the so-called uniform in horror.
It was a pile comprising a red crop top shirt with black leather shorts that could easily be mistaken for panties and fishnet pop socks. This is what I'm wearing?" I asked in horror but the man was already gone.
A few minutes later, I was sitting in front of a vanity mirror, struggling with a mascara when three girls strolled in giggling to themselves. themselves. "He's
s so hot!" One of them, a blonde, giggled. "You should see the way he is fighting right now. He's such a beast!"
"A bea
beast
I wish would look at me." Another girl, a brunette, pined "I don't need to be his mate. I just want to be one of his girls, yunno?"
"I feel you babe. I heard lie's great in bed." Blondie gushed.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
"Great is an understatement." The third girl answered. "I heard girl once say he gave her an o****m that lasted a whole damn half hour."
The other girls gasped with wide eyes as they covered their mouths in shock.
"Are you for real?!" Blondie asked.
Trust
me. My sister is friends with the last girl who shared his bed. She wouldn't shut up about it."
They got to their respective vanities and I realized they came to touch up their makeup.
But to me their makeup was perfect. Why were they now adding more? And who was this man they kept talking about? He sounds like a player. Despite being baffled, I watched them, trying to study how they use their mascaras as they were completely oblivious to me. Tue, Oct Chapter 20
"You know what guys?" The third girl piped up after spraying something on her face. "I don't even want him." Her eyes glinted with mischief. I want his brother.
"Oooooooh!" The other girls gushed and giggled.
"The mysterious one."
"I bet he's worse than his brother."
"Yeah." The third girl beamed with an air of superiority. "I heard rumors from years ago that he likes to tie his girls and do nasty things to them. All consensual of course." She grinned.
I
"I think now I want him too!" The brunette pouted.
"Careful what you wish for. The third said in a sing-song tone. "From what I heard, he likes his women....HEY!"
I jerked in my seat as I realized I had been caught. All three of them faced me with hostility written on their faces.
"Was It talking to
to you?!" The third girl queried and I immediately shook my head.
"No. 1-1 uhm didn't mean to eavesdrop, I just wanted to learn how to put on some makeup." I said.
The third girl scoffed and gave me a scathing up and down look. So you're the one who replaced Cathy? Why sign up to work here if you can't do basic things?"
I opened my mouth to answer but then I closed it. I don't need to deal with another Bessie right now. I had less than five minutes to get done and get out there.
The third girl rolled her eyes and flicked her hair before catwalking out of the room with the others in tow.
I turned to the vanity mirror and sighed. Can I really go out there without makeup? But my boss specifically mentioned wearing makeup and I need this job. I decided to grab a lipstick and call it a day. Just then, the door opened and in came the blonde. She had big round blue eyes that emitted a sense of innocence that contrasted greatly with her uniform.
We stared at each other through the vanity before she suddenly crossed the room towards me. "Hi. I'm Maggie." She said before grabbing some makeup items from the table. "But my friends call me Mags"
"Hi Mags." I said. "I'm R-"
t call I me that!" She snapped, as she turned my chair towards her. "Only my friends get to call me that."
aused. "Uhm. Noted Maggle. Why are you here though?"
Maggie stared into my eyes for a moment and I could see the hesitation in them. She began to apply things on "When I first came here, I had no idea how to apply makeup too so someone taught me and now I am extending that my face. kindness to someone else."
Thank you." 'I said.
"Don't mention. Just keep your head down and stay out of Chelsea's way."
"Chelsea?"
Maggie rolled her eyes. "The one who tried to bite your head of earlier. She can be very territorial about the 'high' tables, so stay out of her way."
"Noted. Thanks."
Minutes later, after Maggie had left, I was staring at my own reflection and could barely recognize myself.

I was never one to think about beauty standards and if I fitted that category but right now, dressed like a prostitute with red lipstick and eye shadow that made my hazel eyes seem ethereal I couldn't help but see how stunning I was. Do you even know how pretty you are?' Coach Dutton's words haunted my mind, making my smile drop.
I left the room and stood in a corner, to study the layout of the massive bar. I realized I was upstairs surrounded by Alphas, Betas, and Gammas and when I looked down, I discovered a cage fight going on with men surrounding it, placing bets. In this cage was a massively tattooed with dark hair beating the hell out of his opponent.
guy
Within seconds, he knocked his opponent down and was immediately declared a winner.
Hmmm. Was this the guy the girls were talking about?
As if to answer my question, a commentator mentioned that this was his seventeenth win in a row rendering him the undisputed champion of cage fighting. I blinked in surprise. He must be a really ruthless and powerful person to beat seventeen men one after the other. Why did those girls want him? Who would want to be with someone like that? I should go do other things but I had no idea why I kept on staring.
His tattoos were somewhat interesting and seemed really familiar and just when I was hoping to see what he looked like, the man came out of the cage and that's when I gasped.
The Undisputed Underground Champion was Prince Miro Windermere, looking like the devil himself and to my horror, he was coming upstairs. SEND GIFT
