“So, she’s your girlfriend,” Betsy concluded and pouted her lips.
“What if I am?!” Beauty yelled.
“She’s so toxic” Betsy yelled pointing her index finger to Beauty.
“She’s a baby,” Ruben muttered with a smile.
“Ruben, don’t you learn?!” Betsy yelled.
“Betsy don’t continue” R Ruben warned.
“First it was that one Mabel who looks likes a barbie doll and then Sofia the one that looked like Cinderella and now this one that looks like… like Beauty” Betsy yelled observing Beauty who was mumbling inaudible words.
“You sure love fairytale princesses but they end up destroying you” Betsy said with true concern for him.
“Talk to Father when he comes back, don’t ignore my request” Betsy pleased and left his suite.
“How did she know my name?” Beauty asked in confusion.
“You are such a jealous doll” Ruben muttered and played with his hair.
“I know of your history and how you flirt with so many women, you punished me for being with Milan, so since I can’t be with other guys that also means you can’t be with other slaves, I’m the only one that should be in your life, like I own you!” Beauty ranted and sat on the bed.
” You own me “Ruben laughed.
One thing he likes about Beauty is there are no dull moments with her.
“No it’s the other way around I own you” Ruben smiled and held her arms, her skin seemed softer in hands.
“That’s what you think” Beauty pouted..
“I never knew you had a sister!” Beauty exclaimed.
“Well, she isn’t my real sister,” Ruben said, deciding to tell the truth.
“I don’t understand,” Beauty shook her head.
She moved closer to him and positioned herself in between his legs, she rested her head on his chest and he wrapped his hands around her.
“Milan, Darian, they aren’t my real siblings and neither is Betsy, Mother died while giving birth to me and Dad died when I was five, he was military officer and helped with Lord Stone’s drug business, so when he died in the war, Lord Stone took me in as his son, their mother died of cancer five years after I came, they never really treated me like outcast only Milan had a problem with me, Betsy was my favourite, she’s all cute and problematic, Darian, we never had any fights but neither have we ever had any close relationship “Ruben narrated like he was remembering.
“I’m really surprised, it must have been hard for you” Beauty muttered.
“Yes at first but later I got used to it and decided to be the best,” Ruben said and smiled.
“What about you, where are you from?” Ruben asked curiously.
Beauty exhaled before speaking.
“My full name, is Beauty Hayden, I lived my aunt and cousin Jamai that made my life a living hell, they always tortured me,When my parents died they took me in but were never nice to me” Beauty muttered and tears dropped from her eyes.
Ruben heard her sobbing and pulled her up.
“Why are you crying?” Ruben asked and chuckled.
“It’s not funny, my parent treated them nicely, they behaved like they liked me because dad would surely give them something when they came, but when they died, Aunt took over the entire properties,I couldn’t finish high school , they always tortured me, I really miss my parents especially my mom”Beauty sobbed.
Ruben didn’t smile anymore as he realised she was serious.
“Stop crying” Ruben muttered and hugged her.
“I can’t stop, I want my parents back” Beauty cried like a baby.
” I miss my parents too but I know, they are happy wherever they are and they would want you to be happy” Ruben smiled.
“I want them back” Beauty continued sobbing.
Ruben had the urge to laugh but controlled himself.

Slave quarters ***
This is a different place for the male slaves or bodyguards.
Jessi is one of the servers, she comes to give them food and she’s used to talking with Nicolas
“Jessi” Nicolas smiled, she was done serving and came to Nicolas.
“You food” Jessi smiled and dropped his food in front of him.
“Thank you” Nicolas smiled.
Jessi sat beside him to rest for some minutes, she smiled staring at him, she has a secret likeness for him, they actually came at the same time.
“Have you gotten into trouble since you came here?” Jessi asked, still smiling.
“No,” Nicolas smiled.
“But it is bound to happen,” He added.
“Have you eaten?” He asked, concerned.
“No”
Nicolas dipped the spoon into the rice and put it close to her mouth.
“Eat this” Nicolas said and she opened her mouth taking the food.
“Thank you” She warmly blushed…
He continued feeding her, it was fun to watch.
“lover boy!” One of the others yelled.
Nicolas had forgotten about himself, so he continued feeding her.
Betsy suddenly walked in there, she came to check on Nicolas, she frowned when she saw them in that position.
Nicolas noticed Betsy and he stopped feeding Jessi.
Betsy glared at them left without a word.
“Is she angry?” Jessi asked worriedly.
“I will be back” Nicolas said and left..
