Chapter 7 DISILLUTION

His moans escaped endlessly, echoing in my brain. Suddenly, it stopped. I shivered and let out a cry. My shoulder was bitten mercilessly. The hot, sticky stuff ran all over my hands, splashing all over my shirt. I purse my lips and gaze at my hands. Damned. What exactly did I just do?

My phone suddenly vibrated. It was Big Howl calling. I hung up without hesitation because I knew what he was calling for. I scrubbed my hand vigorously until my fingertips turned red, then sighed in frustration. Then, I turned my head to look at the guy next to me. To be honest, I don't mind leaving him alone so I rub my forehead, muttering:

''Did I do something indebted to you in my previous life?''

Big Howl observed me from a distance and waved his hand and raised his thumb simultaneously, indicating that the deal was accomplished.

"Eirlys... What's that on your shirt? And who exactly is this?"

When I didn't respond, Big Howl inquired again.

"Who exactly is he?"

I don't even need to look at it to see that the expression on my face, was extremely complicated. Like some bad guys playing with innocent girls, they throw them away when they get bored. I involuntarily put my hand on my aching shoulder. Thinking of what just happened in the warehouse, I blushed. It was truly the worst thing I've ever done. Damn. This was terrible. I glared at him with venomous eyes and stated coldly:

"Drop him somewhere."

...

Ryan just had a vague dream.

The scene in front of him seemed to be covered with the white color of rain. The snow-white girl with a bright red umbrella approached him with a rosy face.

Her glittering, beautiful eyes opened the deepest desires of his subconscious. Her attractive face came to a halt in front of him.

Then she softly kissed him on the lips before pulling away again.

Ryan felt his mind in turmoil, he brought his index finger to her lips, it was both soft and tender.

The little girl opened her mouth slightly, and he only needed a little force to reach the tip of her tongue. With red lips and a white face, she looks extremely beautiful.

In a vague dream, the girl gently removed her clothes and approached him. Long, silky brown hair fell, running all over his body, rubbing against his itchy heart.

Ryan's eyes darkened, and a pleasant scent surrounds the tip of his nose. He sucked in gently, saw her white flesh begin to stain pink and she gasped softly into his ear.

The tips of his fingers began to move down her hips, meeting a warm zone. Ryan suddenly heard her breathing stop for a moment, and then she was breathing faster. His fingers gently squeezed into the warm area, it was like sucking his fingers, accompanied by sticky water flowing out.

The noise of skin crashing against the skin, the sound of slippery water, Eira softly leaning against him, her body reacting with his every motion.

Ryan's chest heaved. His passion was like a wave that didn't stop slamming against the coast, it raged on.

In the blink of an eye, all his reason was swallowed up.

Ryan involuntarily grabbed her shoulder blades and took a bite, like he was sipping his prey.

Time seems to stop. The scene suddenly had light from behind. Looks like the downpour has long since stopped. Ryan narrowed his eyes, seeing everything as white again.

He woke up shivering, feeling dizzy.

Yesterday... what happened? Ryan rubbed his forehead, trying to remember. But useless. He cursed silently.

The purpose Ryan went to that hotel, for the illegal auction was because rumors about "that thing" appeared. But he is quickly disappointed because it is not at all what he is looking for, it is just a powder that makes people sink deeply into lust.

Glancing at his hand, which was bandaged with a clean white cloth, he wondered if he had done something desecrated yesterday when he lost his mind? The sweet scent of the young woman was still faint.

Ryan scratched his head again, unable to remember who she was.

All he knew was that, apparently, he was still sober, so he didn't rape that girl.

How lucky.

Ryan went straight to the bathroom. The cold water calmed him down somewhat. He scrubbed all over his body until his toned skin was flushed red, and his fingertips began to ache.

Then he wrapped a towel and quietly went out to the balcony.

Back to the hospital.

After finishing that work, I went to visit my grandmother immediately. Then I held her hand tightly. The money I had worked so hard to earn, it seemed, was not enough to pay those bills.

When I saw the lengthy bill, I immediately thought of my aunt and uncle. My palm squeezed unconsciously when I remember those years living with them and being treated like a maid. I will never return to that terrible house to seek aid. Simply because, no matter how much I pleaded, they would not give me anything. I became uneasy as I remembered the words they used to say to me.

"Our family is under no duty to help you."

"I'm not understanding why we have to bend over sideways to bear the other two debts, darn it, our two poor children are still sobbing because they don't have new shoes like their friends!"

"Tell me, even your mother abandoned you; what can we do to raise a wretch like you?"

Yes, I was a wise girl and soon realized that my uncle and aunt detested my grandmother and the child abandoned by her own mother, so when I was ten years old, I decided to move out of that horrible house by myself. Looking at those faces pretending to let out fake tears but actually laughing inside because they just kicked a dirty thing out of their house, I feel disgusted. Although it was a bit tough for me to go out and make ends meet on my own, as long as I didn't have to look at their faces, I could sleep peacefully.

Through back to the current circumstance, I scowled, gently biting my lower lip. What should I do now?

I had to use all of the money I saved up to pay for today's medical costs so that I wouldn't count on my stingy aunt's assistance. But how will I pay for the rest of her treatment? I'm genuinely puzzled. There would be no possibility to generate that much money in such a short period of time if it weren't for the illegal route.

I was lost in thinking, and when I recognized it, it was already dark. The hospital appeared to send someone to chase me away as soon as I stood there for a bit. But where can I go now that I've returned home? I'm at a loss for what to do.
