She didn’t know hiht he could be dismissed so easily He quietly followed her into her room and shut the door behind the and glared furiously at him

"You just don’t listen, do you?" she shouted "I told you I have things to get done today I’ the week but my personal time’s my own and I don’t owe you any explanations," she finished, losing some steam

Lucas barely even heard her words Her room was almost homey He didn’t think there was one speck of dust anywhere in there It was ser than her roo was

She had a wire hanging up against the far ith clothing hanging on it, sohts She also had some sort of bucket in the corner with laundry soap next to it On the other as a se and burner on top of it The walls were painted a nice shade of lavender

In the middle of the room, just a couple feet in front of him, stood her twin sized bed It wasquilt on top The bed see on some sort of blocks

He could see that she’d put some real effort and ti a china bowl into a sewer didn’t make the sewer any better to be around You didn’t see the beautiful bowl; all you saas the ht was how could anyone live in a place like this?

Well, that was his only thought until he looked at her bed again Her bed, which she'd just gotten out of a few hours ago; the bed he wanted to throw her on right then His pants were far too tight and there was a bead of sweat breaking out on his forehead the longer he stood there

Lucas took a step towards A his internal battle and was about to take her right then and there He’d sworn he wasn’t going to start anything until he could finish it and as disgusting as the house was, there was a clean bed in front of him, which would work just fine

Suddenly the door was thrust open and in walked her drunken, uy, which was soe days

Lucas was getting ready to push hih, when he spoke

"Well A to ht now or you can get your rich ass out of my house"

"I don’t have that kind of an

He quickly interrupted her "you’re alalking around here like you’re so s up and have that look of conte your boyfriend here I know you have plenty of dough That car he’s driving is worth more than three of these houses Noantstep in her direction

Lucas quickly stepped in his path and the look in his eyes stopped theany closer Nor to her that way but things orking out better than he could’ve hoped for He’d been planning on de she leave the place but noasn’t the one who had to look like the bad guy

The worthless piece of trash washer out of the house right then and the drunken slob was the responsible one

"You drunken bastard, I’ve never once put you or this piece of crap place down I’ve always paid you on-tih I’ve stayed here only because I’ve had no other choice and for your infor here in a couple of weeks anyway I’m sick of your stench!" She finished with tears in her eyes

"Get out now you snobby whore…" he shouted before he was interrupted by Lucas

"That’s enough You’ll leave this rooet whatever she wants but you won’t speak to her that way again or you’ll deal with me," Lucas said The man stepped back and made a quick retreat Even he knew better than to disobey Lucas at thatfroet out" Lucas was trying to be kind but it ca, which embarrassed her

"You may make more money in one day than I’ve s," she snapped at his down I just don’t feel this guy is stable and I want to get you out of here as quickly as possible"

She finally broke down into tears "I don’t take handouts!" Ah her tears

Lucas moved towards her and pulled her into his ar a two ton boulder She stopped fighting him and then sobbed on his shoulder for a few minutes

Finally, when he could tell she’d calether Hehis brother was there with his truck

"Hey bro, a?" Amy looked up to find another Adonis in her room
