CATHERINE P.O.V

''Catherine!" I heard Mr. Ash roar as I was treating my wounds. I shivered and knew I was in trouble. I fearfully went down the stairs and stood on the last one, when i sighted him with a furious look on his face.

"How dare you!" He growled as he sighted me. Without shifting his gaze away, he walked over to me angrily, and I shivered, unable to move. He gripped my hands tightly and jerked me forward to him, only for our lips to met.

I widened my eyes in shock as I felt the soft flesh on my lips.

''I thought I was so dead"... "Wh..what going on?"

The questions raced as my head immediately went blank, and as my heart shot up to it highest point, but before I could close my eyes and dive into the passion of the kiss, of MY FIRST EVER KISS, he pulled me away abruptly and sharply from himself, that the next place I found myself was at the edge of the wall, with my back awfully wounded against it.

Yes and Indeed, this would be the second time that the cold hearted billionaire would cause me pain, but that was nothing compared to the startled and shocked and scared expression that I by then had already wore on my face, and I knew he saw my fear as I slowly moved my shaking eyes back to him, but immediately I finally look at his face , the realization hit me hard on the chest, and I finally realized why he had dared to kiss a girl like me whom he considered as nothing but a worthless slave.

But even after realizing what exactly he thought of me, still he didn't spare me by just walking away and letting me be. No, looking at me right in the eyes, indeed the demon son knew just where to attack me everytime and how to make it hurt than hell.

Parting his lips, at last and just like I had thought, he didn't spare me with his awful words as I sharply and arrogantly started to hear him speak again.

"I bet you're happy now, hmm..." With his burning gaze on me as if he was going to devour me any minutes, he said with his lips twisted before scoffing out.

"Isn't this what you wanted?..."

This time as he spoke again, he decided to start to move close to my now teary self that still kept on fucking standing by the wall side and kept on enduring his awful words that were so not true.

Boy, If only God knew how much I wanted to slap him, to yell at him and in the same arrogant manner, and to just walk away and end this freaking contract that was filled with nothing but torment once and for all.

Looking at the demon with misty teary gaze, I wish I could do just that, but in the end and knowing that if I ever do any of the such, not only would that be the end of me ever saving my family, but also would I never be able to forgive myself for being a fool to my emotions.

"You're silent, hmm?.."

"Speak up!"

With every step he took closer to me, he kept on speaking. No, he kept on yelling so awfully loud to my face that at some point, I actually felt like him watching me cry in fear and pain, was only adding more fuel to his anger.

Indeed it was, and I needed no one to tell me just how much of a trash he saw me as, just how much it was obvious he hated me, and just how much he thought and carried the mindset that the reason I had "EMBARRASSED" him on his party was because I wanted revenge, to ruin him and for his freaking attention. The two were pure lies and accusations since I had never for once thought of seeking any revenge, while the third of partially true. It was true that I wanted his attention, it was true that I wanted for him to treat me better, for him to treat me like a human being, unlike the slave tag he had saw me has, and yes, it was true that a psychopathic part of me had really thought that it could ever come true one day and that I could ever change him for the better, but now I have finally knew just how wrong I was to ever think that, since he showed me yet again that he was never capable of changing.

Wicked, Cruel, this were all the famous billionaire features that now I have already finally started to accept. Finally realizing all this I felt as tears started to flow down my eyes, but I tried to shift my gaze away for him, he held unto my chin aggressively and made me forcefully keep looking at him, to indicate that he wasn't done speaking and breaking me just yet.

"Tears..." He scoffed as he kept on holding unto my chin tightly, without showing any traces that he was going to let go any time soon, and I knew that when he finally does, my chin was going to be as red as ever and filled with scars that he was going to make me lie about if anyone ever asks.

"Let me go" With countless of shitty tears flowing down my cheeks that wish I could stop, I said in a low tone even though I knew he couldn't hear me.

"Tell me why are you trying to pretend to be innocent and helpless now, hmm?

"Didn't you know what you signed up for, Miss Catherine, or should I say Mrs. Ash now?" This time, he said again more venomous and spiteful than before, that it made my teary blurry eyes look into his dark blue ones, pleading to him to free me from all this torment, but he didn't stop there, he didn't let me go.

Holding and pressing tighter unto my chin, before I saw his lips part again, he forcefully brought me closer to himself, that not only was it inches that stood between us once again, but also did I watch as his lips twisted into an awful wicked and ever so cruel grin, tht was capable of making my fearful heart literally crush into pieces. But yet again, why would he ever stop taking when he literally loves seeing me in this way.

"I know what is up in your head...." Looking at me intensely in the eyes, he whispered to me deadly as he finally let go of my chin, only for him to push my head with one of his fingers, as his evil grin melted away and got replaced with the coldness he always wore anytime he looked at me.

"But it's never going to happen" He said as he spited out his words to me, before lifting one of his eyebrows up.

"Why should I ever treat you better? " He asked me curtly, before pushing my body back to the wall again, making me wince as I felt my body arching again, but he didn't stop there, instead as soon as my body touches the cold wall, he placed his left hand above my head, and his right hand on my face as he started to caress it roughly, but instead of I to hate him for what he was doing to me, for his torture...Instead of I to push him away and tell him to go to hell and just burn, I found myself and my entire soul wanting more, as tears kept on flowing down my cheek, and this awful feeling was something I couldn't stop.

Maybe I was truly the psychopath of this story.

"Don't tell me that you've forgotten your place again, Miss Catherine" Hearing his voice, his words brought me out of my thoughts and this time I parted my lips and gave him the answer he always loves sparing no chance to refer me as.

"That am a maid" I mumbled, replying back to him as our eyes remained fixed with each other

"Not a maid, but you're the rag and toy that I can play with in exchange for the money that you want"

"Or don't you want money anymore?" With a evil smirk on his face, he said as he tugged the strands of my hair away from my face, wanting to keep breaking me, but this time I had already had enough, and didn't wanted to keep giving the blue eyed demon more satisfaction than he already has.

Looking at his face, I swallowed the lump that had been stuck on my throat, and wiped my tears away, before parting my lips slightly.

"Why would you even ask me that, when you already know the answer" With my hand squeezing unto the hem of my gown, I replied back to him with the little confident that I had summoned up.

"I do like money, and as long as you are going to keep paying me, I am fine with that" With every word i spoke out to him, I watch as his face squeezed with displeasure and something else that I couldn't quite make out of.

"You..." Raising his voice angrily to me again, I closed my eyes, ready to receive the penalty for speaking back to him, which i had thought was a slap, but when I didn't feel anything on my cheek, I opened my eyes again, and looked back at him.

"Very well" Looking back at me as he tried to calm the rage inside him, he said after some minutes of silence before moving closer to me again, and lifting my chin up with his fingers, so that my eyes don't divert away from his.

"As long as I am paying you as written in the contract and signed by you, you are all mine" With his eyes pierced to mine, he said his words silently in a way that made me feel like I had just threw myself into another hell that I wouldn't be able to ever get out for. He said his words that completely made me feel as if I was created to entertain him, nothing else, nothing more. HIS WAS MY SLAVE, TOY, TORMENTOR, and watching my face enfold with fear again was all he ever wanted to be satisfied again, which I had just given to him.

"All the good girls go to hell...this is hell" As if to make my sink the more, he moved more closer to the side of my face and whispered on my left ear, before jolting back with a smirk on his face and walking away.

Walking away and leaving me with crumbs, pieces, and still with feelings that I hated to feel, I finally realized just how much I was DOOMED AT HIS SERVICE, and just how much he LOVED TO HATE ME.
