I could physically feel my mouth drop open as I just stood there. Was he serious? Me? Live with him? No way, it was way too soon. "Is something wrong?" "Me? Live with you? Why?" I asked. "You don't want to?" Why did he seem so calm about this? This man hated me and he wanted to live with me? "If we moved in with each other I think that we'd only get on each other's nerves. I mean, you hate me and I... well it doesn't matter how I feel about you but I will say that our feelings are mutual." He laughed. "My house is big enough that we wouldn't even see each other. It's not like I want to live with you either." "Then why suggest it at all?" "For publicity. If you were to move in with that other guy then it would cause an uproar and there would be many questions. If you were to move in with me then it would be the same thing but it would seem okay to the public because we are dating." I frowned. "But it wouldn't seem okay either. I mean, it's bad enough that you are bashed because I'm still a minor! This would make it even worse because then they'd think that we are... you know..." "Sleeping together?" My face grew hot and I looked away a little embarrassed. "Exactly." "So?" "So?" I bit my lip and looked straight at him. "I just don't want to be called any names at school. I mean there has been no bullying but it's only been a week. I don't want anyone getting the wrong idea... especially my mother. She's probably going to see this all anyways and..." "Then tell her the truth about us." "No! That would make her even more upset!" "Then I guess you have no choice but to just come and live with me. You don't have anywhere else to stay, right?" I nodded. "Then come and live with me." "Then promise that..." "I won't promise anything. If you get bad attention just ignore it. If no one likes you then deal with it. That's the life of people in my world. You just suck it up and deal with all the bad things around you. I'm sure you are capable." I felt my chest tighten. Why? Why did he bring me into this world? "You aren't going to say anything?" "I have nothing to say to you. Fine. I will pack up my things. I will give you Daniel's address and you will be the one to pick me up tomorrow," I said plainly as I wrote down his address and put it on the table. "You're telling me what to do?" he asked and he got up from his seat. He walked over to me and slammed his hands on the sides of my chair, his face nearing mine. "May I remind you who the one in charge is?" he said as his eyes pierced through me. I began to swear a bit and I then glared at him. "I understand that you are." "Good. Then..." "I won't be going with you tonight. Come for me in the morning," I said and slipped out from beneath his arms and scurried out of the coffee shop. I ran for as long as I could until I felt as though I couldn't breathe anymore. To be fully honest I was scared. I was sixteen years old. Normal girls like me didn't have to put up with crap like this. What had happened to my old life? It had only been a week but it felt more like years. "Helena!" My ears perked up at the sound of Daniel's voice and I whipped my head around. He stood next to his car. "Daniel..." "I've been looking for you! Hurry and get in the car and I'll take you back to my place. Don't just go wandering off on your own at midnight." I hid a fairly large smile with my mouth as I pretended to cough. "You're right," I said and I walked over to him. "You are always worrying me," he said and he wrapped his arms around me tightly. "Cut it out. I don't know why you think it's alright to make me feel this way. So just... stop it already," he said and he buried his face in my neck. My cheeks began to burn and I felt numb all over. I felt strange but very happy. "I'm... very sorry," I said and I put my arms around his waist. A new chapter was beginning in my life. My love for Daniel seemed to be getting through to him. The only thing standing in our way was the fact that I technically belonged to the cruel celebrity by the name of Dante Anderson. I wondered how long I would have to live in his possession before I could be free. The whole idea was frightening to me... but I would live with it for as long as I needed.
