Xander POV:

"We have to go there, its important" my Pops says to me.

I do not feel like going anywhere and a party is something I am not in the mood for at all. It's been a week after I have had Alex in my house. I feel torture, pain and rage within me.

Every time I think of her and David I lose my temper, I have not been able to grasp my anger and am waiting for it to explode. One small string and I know I will lose it.

Never in my life had I imagined that just a girl will be able to make me feel like this. I tried to hurt her back by calling her names and insulting her to make her feel a bit, of what I felt.

But my mama has raised me better to respect a woman but that girl doesn't deserve to get any respect never ever, she was just one of those who would betray anyone for a bit pleasure. Ha! She can't even be faithful to her own sister how can I expect she would be with me?

"Are you even listening?" my thoughts are broken from my Pa's voice. I look at him and nod, he sighs "What's the matter you are really up tight these last few days everything okay?" he asks

"Ya just some work stuff" I try to make an excuse.

"Don't bullshit me son I know better than that. What's wrong is it about the Carmen's daughter? If you want I can fix a date you know" he suggests and I get up from my place and start pacing.

"No I don't want to date her or any of girls as a matter. I just want to focus on work" I reply irritated.

"Well I guess, but you do need someone in your life son you are not getting any younger and I really like that girl so does your mama and sister" he adds with a smile.

"Guess, I don't like her just another bitch to..." I snap only to get interrupted by Pa.

"Benjamin that's enough, that's not the way to talk about someone!" he yells at me in anger but before I could control my own anger I talk back

"Well I will talk about her as I like she is..." and I stop as my Pop put his hands on my shoulder.

I take a deep breathes to calm myself.

"I'm sorry, it's just, sorry Pa I didn't mean to" he interrupts me again

"Its okay son, I understand just make sure you don't lose it in front of others. I won't ask what happened between you two, to make you talk like that about her but be careful your mama won't be as understanding as me" I nod and hug him.

"Thanks Pa, I'm sorry for yelling back" he pats my shoulder before adding

"Eight pm sharp. I need you to be at Victor's party" with that, he leaves.

I just wish you would not be there cause if I see you I know I will lose it I whisper. So, to loose my pent up anger and frustration I walk to the gym.

Alexa POV:

"Mom can't I stay at home, I don't feel like going" I whine, really not in mood to go anywhere.

"It's just for a few hours sweetie and Victor is a close friend of your dad, we have to go at least for appearance sake. Now go on we are already late" she says I get ready unwillingly and get in the car.

We drive to the Victor's state and get inside. The party is on and as usual everyone is mingling and I feel so out of it. All I want to do is curl up with Ben, how pathetic can I be feeling more secure with the teddy than people.

I stay with mom while she talks with some women, I do not hear a thing about what they talk. So, I take a glass of juice and sip it to cover my boredom and start wandering watching paintings and decor, after a while I start going back to the party when someone grabs and pulls me into a room. I try to scream for help but before I could do anything someone covers my mouth.

The feeling of dread comes over me as I know who the guy is.

"Oh baby, I can't wait to taste you" David whispers and starts nipping my neck.

I try hard to push him off of me but he grabs my hand and put it at my back which makes my body stretch towards him.

He grabs my dress and pulls it down and starts to gropes my breast and it stings, I wince from pain.

"Lovely oh god, I have been dreaming of them" he murmurs and bite my nipple.

I panic, he is going to rape me I try to scream but he puts a cloth in my mouth and I start gagging.

He bites my nipple harder and blood ooze out from it as I scream in the cloth with pain. He then rips the remaining of my cloths and starts touching me everywhere. I cry and start shaking but he does not let me go.

I start sobbing and praying for someone to come and save me from him. And just like my prayer has been heard his phone rings and he stops groping me abruptly and curse.

"Hey baby!" he coo's and licks my neck "okay, okay. No wait, I will be there" he cuts the phone and looks at me with a smirk.

"Guess your sister needs me baby, we will continue it later okay?" he states before licking my breast once more and leaving me there. I drop down on the floor and take out the cloth out of my mouth. It hurts as I taste the blood from my lips.

I try to cover my body from the cloth that's left but can't, my breast hurt. I start sobbing and try to cover it as much as I can with the shaking of my hands I can't, and the pain makes me stop. I cry harder when I pull my dress up and try to cover my body.

With shaky legs I get up from the floor, just as I make it to the door it suddenly burst opens again.

Oh no, I back down thinking it's David but the horror of seeing Xander at the door is worst then David. He looks at me with disgust and fury written all over his face.

So, to avoid his hateful gaze I look down at the floor and wish to shrink as I hold my dress with a hand.

 Xander POV:

As soon as she enters the room I follow her through my eyes even when I hate her so much, I can't help but notice how beautiful she looks in that dress. She stands with her mom then wanders off.

I try to ignore it but like a magnet I follow her to see what she is doing only to find her looking at the paintings and walls, touching it with a finger.

I can't help but look at her face so innocent and beautiful. Shaking my head at my thoughts I glance at her one last time before I turn to leave. Just as I walk to join the party I hear her scream.

So, without another thought I rush to see what happened but stop when I hear moans and groans from the other side of the door. I feel the rage within me start and want to break in but stop if she wants to be a slut she can.

It's not like I have any right on her and that thought kills me. The one girl that succeeds on in capturing my heart became the one to break it.

From the first time, I had walked to her wearing my heart on my sleeves and letting her know my intentions regarding her and still she leads me on only to hurt me.

I leave and  try to concentrate at the party but can't, I keep looking towards the way she went every once a while after what's seems like forever I see David coming and kissing Casey like nothing happened, with a smug smile on his face.

Guess she was a good lay, I couldn't handle the anger brewing inside me any longer so I move to the direction he came and open the door to see her standing there with shaky legs, tears streaming down her eyes and her dress its torn but what disgust me the most was she got bite marks all over he neck and upper breast. She has got a swollen lip and blood trickling and some bruises in her wrists and arms.

Oh so, the little bitch likes it rough huh? I feel disgusted with her. Here I was falling head over heels for her and she can't even keep her legs close for one bloody night where they could have been caught so easily.

"Had your fun? Didn't knew you were into rough sex hmm they do say girls that acts innocent are very kinky and sultry in the bed" I says as coldly as I can.

I can't believe that I ever thought to have a future with her, but seeing her hurts more than anything. She is covered with marks given by some other male. Had she no shame any more that she is doing all this to her own sister?

She slowly backs down to the wall staring at me with those damn brown eyes that has haunted me for months and I get even angry. She will never have a hold of me after tonight. Never!

"Don't you dare look at me like that and act scared when you just have fucked David. I won't be a fool and get trapped at it"

As soon as I shout she whimpers "please don't, don't hurt me and just let me go" and crumbles on the floor while holding her knees to her chest and starts rocking back and forth. She keeps saying "please, please don't hurt me" again and again.

I watch her carefully, her eyes they are...blank, that's when it hits me. She wasn't crying in the bathroom because they broke up or at my bed screaming for someone to stop and begging.

And every time I tried to touch her she stiffens and her dress and bruises, how can I be so stupid?

She didn't do anything David he, he God I can't even think. I move towards her slowly and get on my knees.

"Sunshine" I whisper but she don't look at me and keeps rocking.

I pull her hair away from her face but she tries to struggle so I hold her shoulder and she screams. I hug her to me and whisper to her sweet nothings after sometimes she calms down and I hold her face wiping her tears away.

I take off my jacket and cover her. She grabs my shirt in her palm and holds me to her as I rub her hair back and after a while I pick her up. She burrows her head in my neck as I take her from the backside of the house to the parking lot to my car.

All the while she clings on to me. I don't even know what to say to her or what to do. All this time he...and I just kept blaming her and calling names.

I can't even imagine how long has this all have been going on and if...oh God. How couldn't I see all the signs?

I try to put her in the car seat but she refuses to leave me and holds onto me tightly, so I get in the driver seat with her in my lap and drive off to my condo. She trembles and I try to soothe her on the way.

When we reach in my room I put her in my bed and assure her I won't leave and go to the bathroom to start a bath for her. After getting the bath ready I once again enter the room. I carry her to the tub and turn to leave.

"Take a bath, I will be outside. When you're done just call me" I speak as softly as I can so she won't be spooked more than she already is..

"No don't leave" she whispers grabbing my arms.

So, I nod and sit at the edge of the tub turning my back to her. I'm glad she asked me to stay cause for some reason I can't make myself to stay away from her not after tonight, not after what I did to her last week.

"Go on clean up, I won't look or leave"

I assure her with a smile and she starts to pull her dress off and I hear her hiss. Holding the tub tightly with my hands as I hear her, I try hard not to turn around.

All the while she keeps hissing and crying as she washes herself. When she is done I take out some towels for her then hand it over without looking at her. She wraps it and comes out then follows me to my room.

While I take out some boxer and a large t-shirt for her, she goes and sits on the bed. I go to the bathroom and collect her clothes while she changes in the room.

As I pick her clothes I see blood in it so I throw all of it in the dustbin. Trying to control the rage within me for the man who hurt her in such way I take deep breathes to control myself before I get out.

As I enter the room I find her in the same place I left her, she has put on the clothes but she has not buttoned the shirt, so I look away as I tell her to dress properly.

But she whimpers it hurts, I look at her and then to her body before I go near her and button the down buttons of the shirt then take out the first aid kit.

"May I?" I ask and she hesitates before nodding and slips away the shirt.

I try my best to not let my anger take over me, her entire body is covered with hand prints and bite marks and the worst is her left breast.

I try to put antiseptic on it but stop when she yelps. I try to soothe her pain by blowing air to it as I see her biting her lower lip in pain.

Not wanting her to hurt herself more than she already is I take her lips out of her teeth. I put her mouth in my shoulder "bite as hard as you want if it hurts okay?" she nods.

As I clean her breast, she bites me really hard but I try to be as gentle as I can and put medicine all over her bruises.

After I'm done I pull her head away so I can look at the mark she left it stings "sorry" she whispers and try to put some medicine around it, I look at her face before tugging a hair behind her ear. I close the kit and put it back while she wears the shirt once again.

Knowing she must be hungry I walk to the kitchen to get some food and make a quick sandwich and bring it to her with juice.

I order some pizza as well and take the sandwich to Alex.

She is lying on the bed staring at the ceiling with the shirt open. I clear my throat and she looks at me as I hand her the food and she eats in silence.

"I have ordered some pizza, so um...you want to watch something till it arrives or want to lie down?" I ask her not knowing how to fill the silence.

"I don't want to be alone" she whispers slowly.

Understanding, I nod and switch on the TV to put on a movie. Iron man, the same one we watched on our first date. I sit on the edge of my bed to give her some space which is huge in my king sized bed.

I watch from the corner of my eyes as she looks so tiny in that bed and spooked holding a pillow. I sigh and get in the bed to take the pillow out of her hand before I sit resting my back on the headboard and pulling her between my legs. I bend my legs so she can put her hands on my knees and with her back to my chest. I rub her hair and arms as we watch the movie silently.

After the pizza delivery, I get the plates and we eat in silence. Alex yawns and gets on the bed.

I wash the plates and change to my silk pajamas and shirt before taking a pillow and blanket to move to the couch. Checking on her one last time and asking if she needs anything I close the door and throw myself on the couch.

When the day had started I had started I had nothing but rage within me towards Alex but now it's all had turned towards David.

I swear I will destroy the guy for touching her. It's because of him my sunshine is so scared to be alone. And all this time I stupidly let myself believe at the things that were never there.

And moreover, why did she keep so quiet about all this? Why not say anything to me or anyone about this whole matter? What is going on between them anyway? All these thoughts will give me a brain explosion, so I close all my thoughts and focus on sleeping. Come the morning tomorrow I will find out everything there is from her about this matter.

I jerked up from the couch with someone screaming and crying. I jump to action before dashing to my room. I find Alex struggling in her sleep and crying.

I hold her hand and try to wake her up shaking her a bit.

"Alex wake up it's just a dream, come on" but it doesn't work so I shake her shoulder before yelling.

"Sunshine, come on" she snaps open her eyes and look at me in a daze before putting her face to my chest crying.

I hug her and try to calm her down. I get in bed with her and after a while I find her asleep.

Sighing, I too follow her to sleep. It has been a long day after all for both of us.
