ALICE’S POV.
“I dare you to do that again and I’ll make your li…” He didn’t complete his statement before I landed another slap on his cheek.
His eyes darkened and before I could register anything, he grabbed me by the neck and raised me up in the air, leaving me gasping for air.
I kept beating his hand continuously, but it was no use.
His hand tightened around my neck, my eyes shut slow on it own accord and I could feel the world slipping away.
Just then, he let out a growl and flung me sideways, luckily I landed on the bed. I used my hands to prop myself up and I coughed like crazy. My breathe was still heavy but it was getting back to normal.
I turned my gaze toward Liam, rubbing my neck softly, just to see him grab his car keys and barge out of the room, banging the door shut.
Liam almost killed me just now, but why did he stop?. Afterall I was a slave to him, a sex slave. My hands suddenly lost it balance and landed my body on the bed roughly, with my face getting stuffed into the bed sheets.
That was the breaking point for me, I crumbled the bedsheet closer to my face and cried like a baby.

LIAM’S POV.
I grabbed my car keys and barged out of the house, I was fuming.
‘How dare she?. Who does she think she is?!.’
‘It was only two month since I started seeing her differently and now she thinks she owns me!.’
‘The last person who tried to slap me ended up in coma. There was only one person who could slap me and that was…i wanted to end her life forever, but why didn’t I?. Why?.’
I banged my leg against my car furiously. I suddenly stopped, I needed to clear my head before I loose it completely.
I pulled the car door open, got in and zoomed out of the house in high speed. I grabbed my phone, using my other hand to drive my car crazily and then dialled the one person I could actually talk to, Kane.
Right on the first ring, he picked it up. “Hello brother, you finally remembered you got a brother, huh?” He said and chuckled after.
“I don’t have the time for your nonsense joke. Where are you?” I asked him, tightening my grip on the steering.
“Wait don’t tell me you got your heart broken again!. Oh poor you” He mocked and I suddenly felt like punching his face, if only he was here.
“Shut it bastard” I groaned. “Don’t worry brother, I’ll comfort you and give you the necessary advice you need, I’m the best brother you never appreciate after all” This motherfucker!.
“Now, put your arrogance aside and tell me where to meet you” His voice was more serious now and I kinda lovef it this way.
“RGO bar” I said and hanged up immediately, he wasn’t the best choice but I just needed him.

I drove into the parking lot, and parked my car roughly. I let out a deep sigh before stepping out of my car and made my way into the bar.
I walked to a table and settled my butt on one of the chairs, almost immediately, a bartender came over to me.
“Good day sir, what may I offer you?” He asked. “A pack of tobacco and four bottles of whiskey” I ordered and immediately he walked off, probably to get what I ordered.
‘You know what?. You are not my husband, Wrong. You can’t be anyone’s husband or even cut out to be a man. You are nothing but a despicable failure, you are a failure”
‘You’re a failure’ Alice words kept resounding in my head. I felt my blood boil, as I balled my fist and all of a suddenly I felt a banging headache. I laid my head backwards on the chair I sat in and shut my eyes, just then the memories came pouring into my head.
FLASHBACK.
“I won’t shoot her!. I won’t kill her!” I yelled at the man who seemed to call himself my father.
“I hate the fact that I made you my heir Liam, you are nothing but a disgrace. You are a failure!” He yelled at my face, splashing saliva all over my face.
I felt tears sting my eyes as I balled my fist to the side. “I’m sorry dad, but I love h.. er” I stuttered, lowering my gaze.
“And was that the deal?!. I gave you a simple mission and you’d to spoil everything for me!” He banged his palm hard against the table behind me and I flinched.
“I’m sor…ry dad” A tear slowly slid off my eyes. “Well you can continue being sorry for all I don’t care!. Since you failed, I’ve gotten someone to take care of things” He turned his back to me.
“What do you mean dad?” My voice cracked up, hoping it wasn’t what I was thinking.
“I got someone to mess with her car breaks. I’m sure that will end your mission for you and end her miserable life”.
I stood right behind him, fear finding it way into my system. ‘No…No’ I shook my head repeatedly.
Tears suddenly poured down from my eyes and I dropped on my kneels. “Why dad?… Why?” I sobbed hard.
“Your heart has gotten weak Liam, you shouldn’t have fallen in love with her in the first place, knowing quite well what her dad did to me. If I’m given the chance, I will make sure she not only get into an accident but also make sure she burns into ashes with no reminder”.
My blood suddenly started boiling with anger and I lost it!. I grabbed on to a vase and smashed it hard on his head. I then pushed him backwards slamming his back against the wall furiously.
“Have you gone nuts!” Dad yelled at me, he was bleeding profusely but I didn’t care about him now. He was a monster!.
“Where is she?!” I yelled back. “And why will I tell you that!” He raised his voice again.
I turned sideways and grabbed on to a gun with shaking hands. “Cause your life is in my hands now” I said coldly.
He suddenly let out an hysterical laugh.”You are to weak to pull the trigger Liam, you have always been a failure and will alwa….” I suddenly felt a rush of adrenaline and I shot him right in his right arm before he could complete his sentence. He yelled out in pain, grabbing on to his wounded arm.
“Now tell me where she is!” I yelled at him. “Or I would put a bullet into your fucking skull” My eyes darkened.
“California street, near TYE Hotel” I groaned at me. I backed away from him slowly, I dipped the gun into my back pocket and dashed out of his house.
“You will regret this!” I could hear his loud screams behind me but I didn’t care!.
I got into one of his car, turn on the engine and drove out of the house roughly.
“Please stay alive…Please” My voice shook.
