THIRD PERSON'S POV

The house was dead silent when Audrey arrived home from school. She walked over to the kitchen and found Mrs Bahrain; the family cook, making dinner.

"Hi miss Audrey. Had a good day?". The sweet middle aged woman asked when she saw Audrey enter the kitchen.

"Yes. It was okay but too much homework". Fifteen year old Audrey complained as she made her way to the fridge in the kitchen and got herself a diet coke before heading out again.

"I'm certain you can handle it Miss Audrey". The cook chuckled.

"Is my sister home yet?. I need help with my homework". Audrey turned and asked the cook just as she was about to exit the kitchen.

"Miss Annie is yet to arrive. However, Mr Vincent is in his bedroom miss but I doubt if he can help with your homework today". She shook her head.

"He is probably drunk again is he not?". Audrey snorted and left the kitchen.

Climbing the staircase and heading towards her room, she walked pass her parents bedroom. They had gone on a trip to San Francisco to attend a friend's wedding and would be returning today. The room after theirs belonged to Ann-Marie, Audrey's elder sister. It was shut and quiet, meaning she was not back from her boyfriend's place yet.

Moving on, she walked past Vincent's bedroom. Vincent was the eldest of them all and he was in his first year in college. As she walked past Vincent's bedroom, she heard subtle tunks and tinks she knew all too well. Her nose twitched as the rancid stench of alcohol got stronger with every step she took past his bedroom door which was opened slightly. Silently, she hurried into her room and closed the door behind her, grateful to be able to breath in good air.

Throwing her bag onto her fluffy king sized bed, Audrey tied her long brown hair into a messy bun before she proceeded to take off her clothes for a quick shower.

She had just fixed taking her shower and was drying her hair with the dryer in the bathroom when she heard her bedroom door crack open.

"Annie?". She called out through the noise of the dryer thinking her elder sister was home now. The person didn't answer but the door shut close and the lock turned, indicating that it had been locked.

"Annie?". Audrey turned off the dryer. Her hair almost dry, she run her fingers though it. "Annie this is not funny. You know I hate it when you try to scare me". She called out loud while tightening the tiny pink towel firmly around her ***** body.

When no one answered, she angrily made her way out of the bathroom to her bedroom and froze when she found Vincent standing at the door. He had no clothes on. Just a pair of boxers as he leaned against the closed frame of the door while his right leg was crossed over the other. Hands folded against his broad chest while he studied his almost ***** sister.

Vincent never liked the idea of Audrey being labelled as his 'sister'. He has had the 'hots' for the girl since she started to grow boobs and thinking of her as his sister just wasn't working for him.

He remembered when his parents had first brought her home. Audrey was only three years old. He remembered clearly that his father had told him Audrey was a family friend's daughter. The family friend had died in a terrible accident leaving his parents to adopt and care for Audrey. No one knew this truth except Vincent and his parents.

In the beginning, he had seen Audrey as a sister, just like his biological sister Annie. But as time went on he realized he was attracted to her.

There were days he would sneak into her room and watch her sleep. He would touch her but not in a way that would raise suspicions.

Right now, even though he was partly drunk, he could feel the heat build up in his body as he was so turned on by her. Her semi wet hair stuck to her shoulders while the tiny towel around her body did nothing but increase his need for her.

She was beautiful. Her blue eyes called to him like a siren and he wanted nothing but to teach her the things he knew. He knew she was innocent when it came to things about sex and he wanted to be the one to teach her. He wanted to be her first and last.

It was wrong in so many ways that he lusted after the young girl who was supposed to be his little sister but he couldn't help it. And yes he was older than her but that was not going to stop him.

"Oh my god Vincent you scared me for fucks sake". Audrey cursed, as she let out her breath and bit her lower lip to keep her anger in. An action which had Vincent's manhood throbbing with need.

She turned, walking back to the bathroom to finish drying her hair; unaware of her brother's intentions, her tiny *** popping out of the towel as she hurried away.

She didn't notice this but Vincent did. He pushed his hand into his boxers and began to massage his cock when he heard her turn on the dryer again. He had to have her today else he would go insane. He thought to himself. He had taken to drinking and being a play boy but none of the women he had been with could satisfy the lust he felt for his adopted little sister. He needed to quench the thirst at all costs and it had to be done today.

There was nobody at home. His little sister was with her boyfriend. His parents were yet to return from their trip and he had sent the cook on an errand. He had waited all these years. He felt that if he didn't seize this opportunity he would never get it again.

When Audrey returned from the bathroom she was stunned to find Vincent was still in her room, still standing by the door.

It wasn't new for her brother to come to her room or be shirtless around the house. What she however found troubling was the way he was looking at her. She had never seen him look at her in that manner before.

"What do you want Vince?". She snapped at him. His silence was becoming unnerving and she somehow found it scary.

Vincent did not move; instead he stood there, half of his body consumed by the darkness in the room. Audrey turned on the light in her room and cringed. She did not like the look in Vincent's eyes. She had never seen him like this before. It was indeed scary.

She could clearly see he was staring at her. His eyes roamed over her towelled body before settling on her face. He opened his mouth and Audrey had thought it was to say something but instead he licked his lips and took a step towards her. Just one step then he stopped, as if thinking about something very important.

Her heart began to race when he began smirking at her. Audrey could almost taste the alcohol in his breath. She didn't feel comfortable anymore with him being in her room. She wanted him to leave.

"Vincent. Let me get dressed. Plus I have a tone of homework to do". Audrey told him trying to get him to leave.

She moved towards the closet to find something to wear only for Vincent to close the gap between them, pinning her to the closet door with her back turned to him.

"Vincent what are you doing?. Oh my god, stop touching me like that are you crazy!". Audrey shrieked when her brother's hand began to caress her bare shoulders, then he placed a light kiss on it.

"Don't pretend you don't find me attractive like I do you Valeria". He called her by her middle name. "I see the way you look at me. Everyday". He breathed into her ear, squeezing her butt as he did.

Audrey's eyes widened in shock. "Oh my god, what the **** are you doing?!". She squealed almost in tears now. This felt wrong and she didn't like it. "I'm your sister Vincent". She reminded him; a little sob escaping her lips.

"No you are not!". He protested. "Your parents and my parents were friends and then when they died and my parents took you in. We are not related by blood". He blurted out in anger.

"What?. What are you saying?. Clearly you are drunk". Audrey sobbed. She tried to push him away but he didn't budge. "Please move. I need to get dressed. Starting to feel the chills". She lied hoping he would move away from her so she could get dressed.

"I can warm you up baby". He slurred licking her earlobe.

"Eeww Vincent, what the ****?. Back off!". She pushed him, unconsciously rubbing her *** against his erection and making him even harder. He moved back a little.

Grabbing her roughly by the arm, he shook her. "Stop playing hard to get with me Audrey, you know you want this". He began to massage his cock while sucking his lower lip.

"You must be delusional. I'm telling mom and dad when they get home!". She threatened and opened the closet door only for Vincent to slam it shut nearly catching her fingers in the process.

"Dude. Leave my room. You smell of alcohol. Go away!". She screamed in vexation.

This seemed to annoy Vincent as he began to realise Audrey didn't feel the same way he felt about her. "Why are you playing hard to get?". He growled.

He had thought she would admit her feelings for him too and they would both make mad love and it would be their little secret but clearly she wasn't into him. She only saw him as an elder brother.

"Are you hearing yourself?!. Why would I like you like that. You are my brother!. Get it into your head!". Audrey screamed.

"Enough Audrey!". He hissed. Pushing her against the closet door, he forced his lips on hers and kissed her desperately, hoping the kiss would trigger something in her but it only made her furious and she showed it by biting his lower lip.

"The ****!". He groaned, disconnecting his lips from hers.

"You *** hole!. How could you?!. You stole my first kiss!". Audrey screamed with tears falling from her eyes.

Irritated, Vincent lifted her and threw her onto her bed making her bounce a little. The towel which was wrapped around her ***** body came undone and she lay awkwardly ***** on the bed.

"The kiss is not the only thing I'm taking baby doll". He smirked as he took off his boxers standing ***** in front of her. Audrey shrieked reality finally hitting her. He was going to rape her.

"What.... wh-at are you doing. Vince please". She tried to get away from him as he got on the bed but he was fast, grabbing her by the waist and pinning her down.

"Ple-ase don't do this. I'm your sister please". Audrey begged her brother as she tried to fight him off when he parted her legs and touched her hairy *****.

"I'm not your brother. I know you want this Audrey, it's okay. You don't have to pretend with me. It's just us. It will be our little secret. I have also wanted you for so long. You are going to enjoy this I promise". He said as he hurriedly positioned himself between her legs and plunged into her.

Audrey screamed as pain shot through her enter body. Her body trembled with the force Vincent had used and she felt as if her heart would stop at any moment. At that moment, no pain could be compared to what she was feeling.

"Shhh..... shh.... do-n't scre-am". He moaned, pushing himself deeper into her tiny cunt.

Audrey tried to push him off her, she screamed for help but he was too strong for her tiny body and no one came to help. Vincent was a quarter back back in high school, there was no way Audrey's five foot six body could fight him off.

"Come on baby doll. Don't fight me". Vincent moans out as he pins her hands over her head and thrusts into her at a slow pace. He kissed her lips and cheeks as he continued., tasting her tears as he did.

"I have wanted you for so long baby doll. You have no idea how difficult it has been all these years. I'm so glad you are still a ****** and I got to break you. You feel so tight. This is soo good. I'm going to teach you a lot of things okay". He moans pulling out and slamming back into her again.

Audery whimpered. The pain becoming unbearable.

"This will be our little secret okay?". He forces his lips on hers again, increasing his thrusts and causing her to break into sobs.

"Ple-ase stop.....please.... it's so painful". Audery manages to say before she gives up fighting him and just lays there while her brother rams into her like an animal.

It felt like it was going to last forever as Vincent lay on top of her ******* her and telling her how much he was enjoying it.

Audrey's sobs turned to wailing as she lay there on the bed, her whole body aching painfully. Vincent got off her and picked up his boxers, throwing it over his shoulder.

"Don't bother telling mom and dad. They won't report me to the police. Just shut up ok". He hissed at her and walked out of the room, satisfied with what he had achieved.

AUDERY VALERIA GREENE'S POV

Forcing myself out of the bed, I painfully walked out of my bedroom, down the stairs to find Mrs Bahrain. I did not care that I was ***** and bleeding. All I wanted to do was tell someone what Vincent had done to me. Just as I made it down the stairs, the front door opened and my parents walked in.

"Audery, what happened!?". Mom screamed as she rushed to my side and helped me up with her weight, looking at my father with a worried expression on her face.

"What is going on here?!". Dad growled seeing the trail of blood coming down the stairs. "Audery are you in your period or something?". His expression suddenly softened.

"Oh George. Don't ask the child that. Its embarrassing!". Mom scolded him. "Audery  what is wrong?". She pushed back some of my hair so she could look at my face.

"Vincent, he....he forced me". I choked on my tears, unable to speak out clearly.

Mother chuckled. "What are you saying Audery. Vincent is your brother. He would never do such a thing. Stop being silly".

"I'm not lying mother. He...".

"Shut up and go to your room. How dare you accuse my son of such a shameful act!". My mother snapped at me, cutting me off from what I was trying to tell her.

"But.. mom". I began to cry.

"I said go to your room you ungrateful brat!". She hissed at me.

I felt the tears falling from my eyes even more. I did not understand my mother's  reaction to this. Slowly and painfully I made my way up the stairs.

"For christ sake what is he going to do next, murder someone?!". Dad cursed walking past me up the stairs, trying to avoid stepping in the blood that had been spilled. "Vincent , you son of a *****!". He called out.

"Leave my son alone George!". Mum screamed. "He didn't do anything!". She defended following dad up the stairs and leaving me to make it up the stairs alone.

"She is your sister are you stupid?!". Dad could be heard scolding Vincent as I finally got to the top of the stairs.

"Enough of this dad. She is not my sister and you know it!". Vincent shot back.

"So that gives you the right to do what you did?. How could you?". Dad's voice broke.

"He didn't do it!". Mom huffed, clearly annoyed.

"Enough to mother. I did it. Are you going to call the police dad?". Vincent smirked.

Dad only shook his head and bowed.

"I thought as much. Now let it go. I love her and now she is mine so stay out of our business unless you want the world to know about your illegal dealings". Vincent threatened dad.

Dad's heard shot up. "Are you threatening me?".

"Stay out of this dad. There is no telling what I will do". He warned.

"How could you?. She is only fifteen". Dad burst into tears.

"I'm sure it was a mistake George. He was drunk". Mom put in rubbing dad's back.

"Stop defending him!. I'm calling the police!". Dad shoved mom and took his phone out of his pocket.

"He is our only son George. Think of what people will say. No one can know about this please". Mom pleaded taking the phone away from him.

I felt the world begin to spin.

"What about Audery. The poor girl, I can't even look at her.

"She will get over it. We took her in when her parents died and raised her all these years. She won't dare to be ungrateful to us". Mom stated sternly.

"This is unfair!". Dad insisted.

"This is our son". Mom reminded him.

"Count me out of this!". Dad told her.

"Leave it to me. I will handle it". My mom said with conviction.

I held onto the wall for support as the door to Vincent's bedroom opened and dad stepped out. He had tears in his eyes as he looked at me with regret in them. "I'm sorry". He whispered and walked away.

"Dad!". I sobbed calling after him but he did not turn.

"Let's get you in the shower then I will get you some painkillers". Mom said as she came out of Vincent's bedroom. A fake look of sadness plastered on her face while her son stood behind her smirking.

He was right. I was not his sister. All these years i had been lied to. Heading back to my room with the aid of my now step mother, I couldn't help but wish I knew who my real parents were.

My step mother helped me into the bathroom. "I will be back". She said after turning on the shower and leaving me to wash the blood off my body.

The tears came down like a water fall as the water beneath my feet turned bloody. I felt as if I was dreaming. Vincent was my brother until today. How could he do this to me?. And why were my parents not taking me to the hospital.  I was in a lot of pain.

Not wanting to stay in the shower any longer, I turned it off and came out, getting a towel to dry myself . I began to cry again.

"I'm sorry". Mom said standing at the door way. She was holding two pills and a glass of water in both hands. One white pill and one pink pill.

I said nothing as i continued to wipe myself . It hurt when i cleaned her private part i was still bleeding. The blood soiled the towel, making me cringed.

"Here, take this. It's for the pain". Mom handed me the white pill. I quickly swallowed it with the aid of the water. "And the pink one is to prevent you from getting pregnant. Take it and put on some clothes. I will get you some tampon from Ann-Marie's room".

"Why are you not taking me to the hospital?". I asked mom.

She sighed. "Come". She said heading towards the bedroom. I covered myself  with the towel and followed her into the bedroom. I sat on the bed while mom found something for me to wear in my closet.

"Sweetheart taking you to the hospital means we have to inform the police about this and that will have Vincent  arrested. You know your father and I  work with very important people and this will be plastered all over the media should word get out. We will loose a lot of big deals from our business partners with this kind of bad publicity. Is that how you want to pay us back for taking you in after your parents died?". Mom asked me.

"So it's true. You are not my parents?". I gulped.

"We are but not biologically". She shrugged.

"This is unfair". I sobbed.

"Unfair is you ruining our reputation by letting this shameful act out. Is that how you want to repay us for taking you in all these years?!". She chided.

"No". I whimpered.

"Good. Then take the pill and let's keep this a secret. Is that understood?". Mom stressed.

"Yes ".

"Good. Now promise me that you won't tell anyone". She added. "Do this for us if you appreciate all the help we have given you ever since we took you in. You know you are about to go to college". She prompted.

"Yes". I responded.

"Good, what if you tell someone and he or she repots this to the police and my son  is arrested?. You will have to leave this house and since you have nowhere to go and no money you won't be able to go to college and become a doctor like you wanted. Is that what you want?".

"No". I answered feeling defeated. I couldn't believe Vincent  was not going to be punished for what he did to me. I started to cry again.

"Then keep it a secret and I promise you, you will not lack anything. I will arrange for the best medical school in the states for u if you keep your promise".

"Okay". I sniffed back a tear.

"I will have the cook bring you your dinner. Remember your promise". Mom said to me as she left my room. Leaving me alone with my tears.

THIRD PERSON'S POV

Audery Valeria Greene run as fast as her legs could carry her through the thick forest. She was being chased by a masquerade. Suddenly, she hit her leg against a stone and fell. She couldn't run anymore because she was badly hurt and worn out.

Fear gripped her as the masquerade advanced towards her. It came down to her side and held a knife to her throat. It pulled off it's mask and Audery saw who it was. She couldn't believe it. She tried to say his name but her mouth couldn't form the words.

He raised the knife above his head and was about to stab her when she let out his name

"Vincent!!"

Audery screamed and woke up with a start.

When she realised it had only been a nightmare she let out her breath, wiping the beads of sweat that had formed on her forehead and sat up on her bed. She looked around the room she was in, which was still enveloped in darkness and huffed biting her lower lip.

She sighed, pulling her hair into a loose bun. What kind of dream was that. She had never had a nightmare so frightening in her life. She wondered if it meant anything or perhaps it was the manner in which Vincent had brutally raped her that caused her to have such a frightful dream. The thought of Vincent wanting to kill her made her even more anxious.

She got up and turned on the lights in the room, It was quiet all around and Audery  could feel the heaviness of it piercing her heart. Her heart was still thumping in her chest as she retracted her steps back to her bed falling asleep again.

AUDERY'S POV

When I opened my eyes again I nearly died, having to come face to face with Vincent who was hovering over my body with a devilish smirk on his lips. I tried to scream but he had his hand over my mouth to keep me silent.

"Tsk tsk tsk. What did I tell you about screaming?". He snickered.

Tears quickly began to fall from my eyes as I lay helpless on my back, on my bed unable to move.

"I thought we had an understanding baby doll. This was supposed to be our little secret but you went ahead and told mom and dad. Hmmmm. What do I do with you?". He rolled his eyes at my useless effort to free myself from him.

I gulped when his hand press harder on my mouth in warning.

"Did you want to say something Audery?". He mocked. "You going to get punished little sister for disobeying me".

My eyes widened in fear making him laugh.

"Oh don't be scared. You gonna love this punishment". He said as he finally let go of my mouth.

"Please". I let out in a whisper as his fingers trailed down my bare thighs and his eyes roamed over my body lustfully.

"As much as I would want to make sweet love to you again little sister, I will have to wait until later. I have a quiz and I'm running late". He stood up straight and got off the bed just as I let out a sigh of relief.

He pulled the duvet back over my body and walked to the door before pausing and turning to me.

"You are mine Audery. You better remember that always".

I broke into loud sobs the moment he was gone and the door closed shut behind him. I had always counted myself lucky having such a great and loving family. I never lacked in material things and my parents and siblings were always kind to me but now..

*           *            *            *  

"Oh Audery, you are up. I was just about to get Lara to bring you breakfast". Mom said to me cheerfully as she sat at the table eating breakfast with dad and Annie.

"Hey stranger. I didn't see you at dinner last night. Mom said you weren't feeling too good". Annie ruffled my hair as I sat next to her at the table.

"I'm better now". I told her, averting my gaze from her.

"What was wrong with you?". She asked before taking a sip of her juice.

"Eat your food Annie. I told you she had a fever". Mom grunted in annoyance.

"Mom, I thought you said she was on her period". Annie wiggled her nose at mom.

"Yes she was and she had a fever too". Dad cut in smoothly.

"Okay". Annie smiled innocently at me before helping me with my breakfast.

"Audery dear. Why are you not eating your waffles?". Mom asked when she finally noticed I hadn't touched my breakfast.

"I'm not hungry. I'm going to get ready for school".  I told her.

"School? You can't go to school today darling.  Your father already called your school and ask for permission for you. You will be staying home for a few days until you are better". Mom gritted through her teeth.

"I'm fine!". I hissed at her annoyed with the way she was pretending nothing had happened last night.

"I'm gonna go little sister.  Get well soon". Annie stood, picked up her back pack and car keys before kissing my cheek and heading out.

I got up to leave only for mom to grab my hand roughly. "You will stay indoors and at home for a few days is that understood?". Her smiling and cheerful face was gone now. "No phone, no friends, until you get well".

"I am not sick!". I screamed at her snatching my hand from her grasp. "I was raped!". I reminded her and she looked away.

"This is what I was worried about". She told dad. "Her outburst".

Dad only nodded. "Audery i think it's best you stay home". He said without meeting my eye like he always did.

"Look at me dad. Look at me. This is not fair. I was raped, by my brother and this is how you treat me?!". I cried out.

"He is not your brother!". He snapped. He looked at me. "I'm not your father. Neither is she your mother".

My heart broke at his words.

"The earlier you get it into your head that you are adopted, the better and faster you will get over this rape thing". He spat.

"You should count yourself lucky that my son is in love with you". Mom scoffed.

"In love?". I sobbed. "That..". I trailed off as dad stood.

"Vince is my son. My blood. What did you think?, that I would choose you over him?. We took you in when your miserable parents died. Fed you, cloth you. Do you know what would have happened to you had you been put in the foster care system. You should be thankful yet you are being ungrateful!". Dad glowered.

I placed my hand on my chest feeling it getting heavy with every tear I shed.  I couldn't believe nothing was going to be done about this. Then again who am I in this house. Vincent is their son. I was adopted.  I am an orphan probably from  a poor family. These people took me in and cared for me despite everything. Who knew where I would be should I have been put in forster care.

"If I ever hear you accuse my son of rape again I will send you into the system and make sure no one picks you but drunkards and perverts". He warned sternly and left.

"You can't be ungrateful to us Audery. You could have got it worse if not for us. Think about it". Mom said and walked away.

I sank back into my seat and cried. I felt my whole world come crashing down before me. This was it. All my childhood memories ruined.

I tried to stand but felt the room begin to spin around me until I felt myself falling into nothingness.
